Dr. Hirsch’s Sensa Weight-Loss System Starts Now

Delphine — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 03:56:22 +0000

tomorrow’s my first day on Sensa… seems easy enough, just sprinkle food with the flakes, choose from salty or sweet flavored crystals. Somehow the scent of the flakes is supposed to induce weightloss, some people have lost 30 pounds in 6 months!

I’ll let you know how it goes! If you’d like to know more visit: www.trysensa.com

Words of Wisdom from Slim Fast Style Your Slim

Delphine — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 06:25:08 +0000

After I found out Target doesn’t want to respond to blogger inquiries I hit the Walmart -without kids – which means I got to peruse the cosmetics aisles and see what’s new there.

I found the deals on the Maybelline Great Lash and bought my Cover Girl Lash Blast on that trip as well as some other great stuff.

There was a big display for Slim Fast and some free “Simple Success Starter Kit For Healthy Weight Loss”. I got one and wanted to share some wisdom from the pamphlet.

The diet is about progress, not perfection. It’s not about being a size 4 or 6 — you can look good in a 10 or 12
Set a goal you can achieve
Be patient with yourself
Make over your kitchen replacing (insert bad stuff with good stuff)
Walk or workout just 30 minutes a day

These are things we can all use, Slim Fast or not. They also give a magnet to write in your weight every week. There’s also info about the 12 week Style Your Slim Challenge, visit http://slim-fast.com if you register you get $30 worth of coupons and other stuff.

Les Mills exercise routines

Delphine — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 04:27:38 +0000

I joined a gym a few weeks ago and have been LOVING the group exercise classes. It seems all the routines are choreographed by Les Mills. I really like that I know what to expect, if doesn’t matter who is teaching the class because the routine is the same and I’ll get a great workout. I also like the music, the movements are coordinated to the music, making it easy to follow – sometimes! I almost feel like a back up dancer while doing the Body Step(tm) routines.

If you have a gym near you that offers these classes get to them, they are fantastic! I’ve tried Body Step, Body Jam, Body Pump, Body Combat and Body Flow.

meet my new friend – My Fitness Pal

Delphine — Fri, 20 Jul 2007 10:05:30 +0000

There’s a great diet and fitness website that is also FREE! My Fitness Pal is easy to use and an excellent tool to help in your weightloss efforts. I like that it does not require you to fill out a long profile to get the info you need. There is a free calorie counter to teach you how many calories you are eating… check out on the bottom of the front page the foods are alphabetized to help us make better food choices.

Calorie counting is an important part of effective weightloss but you need the most effective and helpful tools availble. Remember that there is no credit card required – EVER, truly 100% FREE calorie counter! I hope you find this as useful as I have.

I’m gonna go back to Nutrisystem…

Delphine — Thu, 14 Jun 2007 20:26:26 +0000

I fell off the wagon for a while, and I admit to eating 3 eclairs from Walmart’s bakery, but I promise I am getting back to it. I haven’t regained the 15 pounds I lost, so it’s not so bad. I can do it!!

Nutrisystem Day 14

Delphine — Mon, 26 Mar 2007 20:39:31 +0000

Today went well, I did sneak two cookies at snack time which is NOT good, but I’m hoping it won’t be a problem on the scales in the morning.

This is really a great diet but when you have so much kid stuff around it is VERY hard to stay good. The member boards are really fun too, I’ve been spending a little time over there and neglecting my blog a little bit.

Can’t wait to post my after photos.

Nutrisystem Day 12

Delphine — Sat, 24 Mar 2007 21:33:37 +0000

Day 12 went perfectly! I did not ingest ANYTHING I wasn’t supposed to. I sticked perfectly to the plan! I am so proud of myself. I even packed my 3p.m. snack and refrained from picking at my kids’ happy meals. We went to the Maine Mall today but I forgot my gymbucks so it was a loss. In the commotion of getting the double stroller together and the kids in the seats, DH locked the keys in the car, so we had to split off. I went about my shopping with the three kids and DH dealt with AAA which luckily responded perfectly within 14 minutes according to him.

Here’s a list of all the things that tried to tempt me:

1. Super Great Wall Chinese Buffet

2. Godiva Chocolate

3. EVERYTHING in the food court, including free samples!!!

4. Starbucks, what I wouldn’t do to have a pomegranate frap, or a mocha latte

Methods of Healing – Weight Loss

Delphine — Sat, 24 Mar 2007 21:17:37 +0000

Here is a great website about healthy living… Methods of Healing has lots of information if you’re struggling to lose weight. Aren’t we all looking for a weight loss program that will deliver? I know I am…

The information about Hypothyroidism may be of particular interest because so many people suffer from it unknowingly and is a MAJOR contributor to obesity in our country. There may be a thyroid weightloss cure that will help you lead the active lifestyle that you used to have and the more active you are, the easier it will be to lose the weight.

If you are looking to increase your metabolism, reduce stress, lower bad cholesterol and treat digestive issues, Thyromine may be for you. Thyromine is made out of various herbs and has a 100% money back guarantee if you are not satisfied.

Nutrisystem Day 9

Delphine — Wed, 21 Mar 2007 20:05:10 +0000

Some how my days got mixed up! I’m on Day 9 Wednesday, March 21, 2007

Today went very well! I just snuck a taste of raw cookie dough! I had a LOT of temptation today, free samples at the supermarket, baking cookies with girl2004 (they’re still flashing their goowy chips at me downstairs).

The food was alright, nothing to rave about and now I’ve understood that I should be eating an egg or some small protein for snack, I was originally eating the pretzels that are labeled “snack” for some silly reason these are considered dessert.

This morning I was officially down 10 pounds from my start, so I am VERY happy so far.

Nutrisystem Day 5

Delphine — Tue, 20 Mar 2007 09:51:09 +0000

Well, Day 5 certainly threw me a curve ball. I was in a huge rush to get boy2001 out the door for the bus, and girl2004 ready for nursery school and did not eat anything for breakfast. When I got home, I was feeling lazy and remembered that roastbeef I had from the night before. I devoured at least 10 ounces of it – nothing else. I felt really bad. It was 10 a.m., so I had my regular Nutrisystem lunch at about 1:20.

That put about 4:20 for snack… that’s exactly when I had to be at boy2001’s Tap class… I didn’t plan, so I ended up skipping snack altogether and eating dinner when I got home, about 5:40. The best part was it was really yummy thin-crust pizza. You have to assemble it yourself, just five minutes in the oven and it’s ready. The problem is I snuck 3 fish sticks I made for the kids!

I didn’t do anything else bad and weighed the same this morning as I did yesterday morning! whew!

I’m back on track for today.
