The one option I've been wanting to try, however, is so expensive, that I'd actually lose weight starving myself just to afford to pay for it. Perhaps you've heard of it, though I won't call it out by name. It touts the abilities of a delicious shake, allegedly packed with tons of beneficial nutrients, designed to help you lose weight and keep it off. I actually don't doubt it's abilities, as I've known several people who have had an abundance of success with the program. However, I just can't bring myself to shell out over $100 for nothing but a monthly supply of the product, nothing else.
Much to my delight, I recently received the opportunity to try a similar product at a discount in exchange for my honest opinions. It's called Skinny Blend, by Skinny Jane, which works very similarly to the product I mentioned previously, though at a much lower price. In conjunction with the Skinny Blend shake, I also received the opportunity to try Skinny Burn, a supplement in capsule form, packed with 9 different beneficial ingredients designed to speed up metabolism and boost energy, as well as the safe and effective cleansing product, Skinny Cleanse, which aids in the fat-burning process.
Skinny Blend Weight Loss Shake - The Skinny Blend Weight Loss Shake comes in 5 different flavors: Vanilla, Chocolate, Banana, Strawberry, and Cookies 'n' Cream. Personally, I enjoy Vanilla, so I decided to play it safe and selected Vanilla as my flavor of choice. To say the shake is delicious is an understatement. The vanilla flavor in the shake is so prominent that I forgot that it had less than 1 gram of sugar and packed full of protein and other ingredients designed to aide in the weight-loss process.
Skinny Burn - I was initially hesitant to try the Skinny Burn supplements, in fear that they would leave me feeling jittery. Much to my surprise, however, they sped up my metabolism, helped to burn fat, and reduced my cravings for unhealthy, high-fat, sugary foods without speeding up my heartbeat and/or making me feel nervous and jittery. While remembering the importance of taking my supplements with water was a bit of a challenge, I found it beneficial, as it aided in keeping me hydrated, and eventually reduced my cravings for caffeine, as it eventually became the replacement.
Skinny Cleanse - I've heard a lot about the benefits of a cleanse lately, so I looked forward to trying the Skinny Cleanse capsules. While I can't say I know exactly how much they contributed to the process, I can say that my body felt significantly healthier by the end of the cleansing period. Once again, drinking 64 oz. of water started off to be a bit of a challenge, but once I got used to it, I saw and experienced the benefits!
The results? While I feel that I certainly could have lost more weight using the Skinny Jane products, I can definitely see their benefits. I admittedly had a difficult time weaning myself off of my favorite highly caffeinated, high-sugar, high-calorie soda. With that said, had I stopped cold-turkey, or spent more time preparing in advance, I feel that I would have reaped more rewards of the Skinny Jane products. Nevertheless, I did lose several pounds while following the program, and more importantly, felt abundantly healthier and more energetic. The taste alone encourages me to continue using the products until I've achieved my weight-loss goals!!
I can relate. :) I spent a loooooong time being really overweight and I feel like I've finally found the secret! (well, I didn't, other people did and I'm just doing what they do)
ReplyDeleteI started eating paleo and now my weight stays at around 113 - it's been that way for a year (I used to be 100 pounds heavier) '
I'm never hungry, and hardly ever tempted to eat the way I used to... it's not for everyone and you do have to give up quite a bit of treats but for me, it's worth it!!
good luck to you!!!
Congratulations! That is amazing!!! I've thought about going that route. I think I could do it, I've seen some amazingly delicious looking paleo recipes. While I like treats, I can do without, so I think I could do it!
