Forslean

Did you know that there is a new diet supplement called forslean? I’d say new because I‘ve never heard it. And just like what I did in the south beach diet, I researched and read about it. It’s not I would try this but who knows. Lol.

I read that its main active ingredient is the root extract of Coleus Forskohlii. For easier term, it is a member of the mint and lavender family. So maybe it tastes mint? That I do not know.

Forskohlii they say has been shown to increase thyroid hormone production, upregulating metabolism in the process, - So I guess that is pretty much how it works. It regulates your metabolism.

Have you heard about it? Or have you tried this one already? Any feedback?

I want to lose 2 lbs this week!

I read this article this morning and I am again encouraged that I can do it. I can lose 2 lbs per week, yes slowly but I think it's the best way to lose those pounds. I hope I would. Anyways, you might be encouraged by this article too from yahoo health news.

Want to shed some weight without the headache of calorie counting, measuring portions or giving up your fun foods? I did! And now it's your turn, by trying what has been working for more than a million other women: the SELF Challenge. As part of our 13th annual Challenge, we've created quick, fun ways to peel off pounds without getting woozy from starving yourself or spending your life at the gym. The key is to get your heart pounding so you lose the poundage.

Here’s the deal: Decide whether you want to lose 2 pounds a week or less (that may sound slow, but you can drop a size in a month this way and keep it off). Follow our free, easy eating plan and try to burn 500 calories per day for a total of 3,500 a week. Those shooting to lose a pound a week should aim to sizzle 250 calories per day (and 1,750 a week). To maintain your weight, focus on daily sweat sessions that burn 100 calories a day (or 700 calories off per week).

Whatever your goal, choose from the following workouts. (Pay attention to the effort level, using a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is watching TV and 10 is installing a 100-pound plasma screen on the wall.) The smartest, most effective route to lasting weight loss is through exercise, so no matter which mix of workouts you choose, expect to see results within two weeks.

Activities to burn 500 calories:
• Walk 40 minutes at a level 8 on a hilly course (or crank up the incline on the treadmill).
• Do 36 minutes of running intervals: Jog for 1 minute at a level 5, sprint 1 minute at a level 9. Repeat 18 times.
• Take a 45-minute Spinning class.
• Dance to a good beat for 72 minutes at a level 7.
• Hit the elliptical machine for 60 minutes, doing intervals. Do 2 minutes at a level 8, then 1 minute at a level 5. Repeat 20 times.
• Swim freestyle for 50 minutes at a level 8.
• Use the rowing machine for 40 minutes, doing intervals: Go 8 minutes at a level 8, then 2 minutes at a level 4. Repeat 4 times.

Activities to burn 250 calories:
• Walk for 35 minutes at a level 7.
• Run for 20 minutes at a level 7.
• Bike for 30 minutes at a level 5.
• Dance for 50 minutes at a level 4.
• Hit the elliptical machine for 30 minutes at a level 8.
• Swim freestyle for 25 minutes at a level 8.
• Use the rowing machine for 28 minutes at a level 8.

Activities to burn 100 calories:
• Walk for 25 minutes at a level 4.
• Run for 12 minutes at a level 4.
• Bike for 17 minutes at a level 4.
• Dance for 20 minutes at a level 4.
• Hit the elliptical machine for 15 minutes at a level 5.
• Swim freestyle for 15 minutes at a level 5.
• Use the rowing machine for 25 minutes at a level 5.

Food season

It’s the season!! Yes. It’s the season where everyone is having a party. It’s the season where there is an abundance of food. It’s the season where no one is counting the calories intake. It’s the season of good food. It’s the season of having only one major excuse for eating too much. It’s Christmas.

We are not even on the 20th of the month and I have been to several Christmas parties. And of course I have eaten a lot, will still eat a lot on the next few weeks until the holiday is over. Extra pounds here it comes. Do I need a tummy tuck? I think so.

You can’t help it especially when you are being offered delicacies that tickles your buds right?

Now for those who worries a lot about their figures. Oh yes I do but I worry even more of not being able to enjoy good food during holidays so eating wins over worrying about the figure. On a second thought, do I have a figure? Lol

Back to those who worry about their slim figure, I guess you guys know what to do, you wouldn’t be on a slim figure if you don’t. But anyways, there will always be an available plastic surgeon for you. If you’re in Los Angeles or Beverly hills, you can visit Rodeo Drive plastic surgery clinic anytime you want that extra fats off your waist. They also do liposuction which is now also popular here not only among celebrities but to common people also. And as I go through their website, I saw that they also do breast augmentation, they can really make you look beautiful from taking those unwanted pounds to giving you that voluptuous look.

I think one important thing to consider when you go plastic surgery is the safety of the procedure and one should be very well informed of what the doctors are going to do in her body.

So, this Christmas eat all you want, worry about the figure later. Let us all enjoy the holidays.

A flat belly diet for us

Good morning everyone!

It’s Monday and the last week of November. One more week to go and it’s already the month of Christmas. Month of many Christmas parties, this is the month where there are lots of good foods being served everywhere. So be careful and watch what you eat this coming month, especially those who are figure and health conscious.

I read about a new kind of diet that targets specifically the belly. I know for most women wants a flat belly and most women do have problems in that part. So reading about a Flat Belly Diet interests a lot of girls out there like me. I would want to try this one also, again for the nth time I’m gonna go try to diet to lose those unwanted pounds.

I’ve been on a lot of diet but it seems losing weight is so hard. I know exactly what I need. A strong motivation that would really push me to lose that weight, to discipline my self and to exercise.



Going back to this flat belly diet, right now prevention magazine is looking for group of women who would like to try it for free as stated up there. According to them it requires no exercise so I think that would be easy considering you’re targeting your belly. So that means you don’t need to dance until you die. lol and you don’t need to do a hundred sit-ups till you run out of breath. Sounds nice enough. Let’s go and do it!
