Don’t Leave Getting In Shape To The Last Minute

September 30, 2008

We have all done it haven’t we? Knowing that we could do with losing a bit of weight, but leaving it until tomorrow to do something about it. Then right at the last minute start on our healthy meal plan and also exercise.

Although we have lost a bit it is just not enough and just think how much you could have lost and how good you would have felt it only you had done it earlier!

Now I’m sure you won’t like this but, yes it will soon be christmas!!! So don’t leave it until the last minute to lose weight and get in shape, ready for that party dress or outfit you have always wanted to wear. Start now!

As you will have seen from this site. I have been taking Proactol weight loss supplement to help kick start my weight loss. I have also got up off my backside and started to exercise. This is because i have no intention on taking weight loss supplements forever. So when i have reached my target weight I want to make sure the weight does not go back on again. Over the past few weeks I have put in place an exercise routine that along with the Proactol is really making a difference to how I look, feel and also weigh.

There are many exercise DVD’s available today and we have reviewed some of the tops ones.

You are able to read our exercise DVD reviews by clicking here to go the review page and scrolling down to the exercise section.

To get you in that Christmas spirit. I have found a great exercise DVD for Christmas Fat Into Fire Christmas Cardio.




    Half Way And Still Going Strong With My Weight Loss

    September 29, 2008

    Apologies I meant to put this post up on Friday,but alas the back to school bug has hit and my child brought it home for me to have, so not felt too hot over the past few days!

    Anyway, I have reached over half way in terms of my weight loss target. so am very pleased with myself. Yes it has been pretty steady,but regularly each week I am losing weight and feeling pretty good about myself. Total weight loss is now up to 11 1/2lbs which I am over the moon about.

    The big test came over the weekend when the weather had got a bit colder so the jeans had to come out of the wardrobe. I was curious would they fit? After all it has been many months since I had to put them on and the last time I did have them on they where snug to say the least.

    So on they went and to my absolute delight they fitted like a glove. Not too snug and certainly much better than the last time I had put them on. I could have shouted it from the roof tops. Putting my jeans on are always a good bench mark for me as to how my weight is.

    While I remember,(alas I have the memory of a goldfish) some tips I picked up whilst taking Proactol. Make sure you take you tablet(s) within 30 minutes of eating. The idea is the tablets get to your food before your stomach digests it. Also make sure you do drink plenty of fluids and finally remember Proactol is a fat binding pill so if your meal is low in fat you don’t need to take so many tablets as they will have nothing to bind with!

      Dietreviewzone’s Monthly Update: September

      September 26, 2008

      Well I say it on pretty much every monthly update, I can’t believe where this month has gone and September is no exception. The fact it is October next week sends shivers down my spin! Soon be christmas - aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!!

      So what has been going on at Dietreviewzone?

      Well I have been busy writing some new articles. Firstly I wrote in more detail about stretch marks, this article is entitled The Why,When, What of Stretch marks. As you know we have reviewed the highly popular and highly effective Revitol Stretch Mark Cream. In this article I wanted to get to the bottom of stretch marks and answer all those questions that I am sure you have about them, so we have a better understanding of what stretch marks are, apart from the fact that they are a pain in the backside so to speak.

      Next I tackled cellulite and looked into whether we are able to get rid of it and also ways at which we can prevent cellulite, this is covered in my article, Can we get rid of cellulite?

      As any of you will have seen at Dietreviewzone that over the past four weeks I have been writing down my experience of taking the weight loss supplement Proactol. How much weight I have lost,which as it stands at the moment is a pretty impressive 10lbs so far. You are able to read My Proactol Diary by clicking here.

      Now as I have been taking a weight loss supplement. I wrote an article on whether you can get addicted to weight loss supplements. I personally have not found this the case at all, I have not even got obsessed about it either. If anything more relaxed than any other diet or weight loss program I have been on.

      New this month we have our review of Zenmed Skin Support System for Rosacea, along with an article going into what Rosacea actually is and the causes. We have also compiled a list of the top tips to help sufferers of Rosacea.

      Finally we have some updated post for you on the subject of weight loss supplements,acne,wedding weight loss and skin care. You are able to read these posts by clicking on the links below.

        Tips To Help Sufferers Of The Condition Rosacea

        September 24, 2008

        Whether you are a sufferer of Mild Rosacea, Moderate Rosacea or Severe Rosacea these daily skin care tips are something that if you practice daily will help your condition

        1. Do not wash with hot water, wash with water that is lukewarm.

        2. Use gentle non-abrasive cleansers and apply them with your fingers not a cloth.

        3. Using a thick-pile cotton towel, do not rub but blot dry.

        4. Before applying any products wait at least one minute and make sure your skin is completely dry.

        5. If you like to wear makeup, choose only oil-free and/or non-comedogenic products. Avoid foundations and concealers as these act like a mask and trap bacteria and oil in your pores.

        6. If Rosacea does flare up, treat it sooner rather than later. Leaving it can cause long-term damage.

        7. The sun is often a major reason for flare up so apply at least an SPF 8 sunscreen everyday to prevent UV induced symptoms.

        8. Take a look at your diet. Alcohol, hot beverages and spicy foods are a few of the more common reasons a Rosacea flare up occurs.

        You can read more information on Rosacea by reading our article: What is Rosacea and How do we treat it? here

          Weight Loss And Normal Day Life

          September 23, 2008

          One thing I have found whilst taking Proactol is that how ever hard I try and plan what I am eating and even what I am drinking. Things don’t always go to plan. Take this weekend for instance. Nothing was planned so I set about thinking about what I should have to eat and drink and how many Proactol tablets I would need. So far so good.

          Then the weekend arrives and we get invited out to a match. Which was fantastic don’t get me wrong but it meant a few drinks and nibbles being available - not on the plan! Match finishes then we get invited to go for some food. Which again was lovely a really enjoyable and relaxing night - not on the plan though. Thankfully I had learnt from previous weeks and had a supply of Proactol in my bag so all was not lost.

          Mind you trying to take a diet pill discreetly when you are out is not easy. Don’t get me wrong I am not ashamed or bothered by what people think of my choice to take a weight loss supplement. I just can’t be bothered justifying it to people who have a negative opinion about it.

          So my tip this week whether you are taking Proactol or any other weight loss supplement is to put a small bottle of water in your bag when you are going out. So you are able to excuse yourself, head off to the nearest toilet and take your tablets after a meal without having to go into a discussion as to what you are doing.

          Not everyone is like me and is quite happy to say that they are taking a weight loss supplement and why not. As soon as I have got to the weight I am happy with I shall be shouting it from the roof tops how I did it, don’t you worry!

          Nearly forgot weight loss for over the weekend was just over 1/2lb, which considering what I ate at that meal is fine with me. I am enjoying the fact that I can eat on some occassions a bit more and as long as I slightly increase my Proactol intake then I know that I won’t put on any weight, meaning I can carry on getting to that all important weight loss target.

          Right a few mornings of some exercise this week and I’ll catch up with you friday!

            Hoodia Balance versus Caralluma Burn

            September 23, 2008

            Hoodia Balance has been around for a while and has proved to be one of the leading natural appetite suppressants available today. The new kid on the block is Caralluma Burn and many people are saying that this appetite suppressant is even better than Hoodia Balance.

            Which one is the best Hoodia Balance or Caralluma Burn? Here are a few details about them both to help you decide

            Hoodia Balance

            1. Will naturally take your appetite away, meaning as you will not be feeling hungry all the time you will be able to stick to your diet.

            2. Contains 750mg of 100% pure certified South African Hoodia and you are able to see both certificates on Hoodia Balance website.

            3. Is a fast and effective health supplement.

            Caralluma Burn

            1. Indian herb Caralluma fimbriata will work naturally in your body to help reduce your appetite, enabling you to keep to your diet.

            2. Being caffeine free means you will not get that jittery feeling associated with taking caffeine.

            3. Caralluma has undergone two human double blind, randomized, placebo controlled human clinical trials. Caralluma safety has been reviewed by three toxicology studies done per exacting OECD guidelines and has achieved self-affirmed GRAS [Generally Recognized As Safe] status.

              I Am Putting On Weight Not Losing Weight For My Wedding

              September 22, 2008

              I can’t imagine I was the only one this happened too. Little over 18 months ago I got married. Leading up to the wedding I thought great at least I will shed a few pounds with the stress of organising it and wanting the day to be perfect.

              After all, every other bride I had seen was saying that the weight was just falling of them on the run up to the wedding, alas not me.

              Now don’t get me wrong I didn’t put lots of weight on, but it didn’t help with the fact that I could have done with losing a bit of weight so that I could put it back on during the honeymoon, which was a week of eating food to die for and with calories to match!! So by the time I got back from honeymoon I was out of my comfort zone with regards to my clothes, they did still fit but not as nicely as before.

              Anyway back to the wedding. I am really not sure what happened. Why didn’t I lose weight like everyone else?? Maybe when I get stressed out instead of my body burning more calories off my body actually slows down. Who knows what is for sure. I wish I had acted on the fact I was putting on weight and not just let it go.

              As you will have seen if you have had a look through Dietreviewzone. I am writing My Proactol Diary. Which If I knew what I know now I would have put into action back then and got myself in much shape for my wedding and been at the weight I wanted to be.

                2 More Pounds Lost, That’s 10lbs In Total So Far

                September 19, 2008

                It’s Friday which is usually enough in itself to put a smile on my face. Today I have an even bigger grin on my face. This is because at the beginning of the week I really wanted to get my weight loss up to 10lbs. Well I have another 2 lbs lost on top of the 1 lb I had lost at the beginning of the week.

                So over the past 4 weeks I have lost 10lbs in weight, which is a nice steady amount to lose. Hopefully meaning that when I stop taking Proactol the weight will not pile back on.

                During this week I also contacted Proactol Customer Support. I started to think that I just wasn’t loosing enough weight, (I had a doubting moment if you like, silly I know when I have lost weight regularly). Anyway I emailed them and said I did not feel I was loosing the weight I wanted too. Much to my surprise came a very detailed email back along with them asking me questions such as, what had I been eating and how many proactol pills I had been taking.

                I answered the questions and waited for a reply. Which I didn’t have to wait long for. The reply was brilliant and I really mean that. It went through every meal I had told them about and told me how many pills I should be taking, which was really really useful. They also pointed out that Proactol is a fat binding pill, so if your meal is really low in fat or had not fat in it at all then you would hardly need to take any Proactol as there was no fat for it to bind.

                All in all a very positive week, quite a few people now have said they can see the difference in me especially round my waist, so confidence is growing. I am glad I had a bit of doubting this week as otherwise I would not have gone to proactol support for help.

                Right the weekend again, now you all know by now this is not my favourite part of the week. I am going in with the same attitude as last weekend and planning my meals and drinks. So fingers crossed it will be a good one!!!
