SO WHAT ARE YOU “WEIGHTING” FOR?
• We expect you to lose 3-5 pounds per week.
• You first notice you are losing weight in your waist, hips and thighs (where most women carry their weight).
• We will be your very own cheerleaders and can talk you off of that “brownie cliff.”
• We have many testimonials right here in our clinic.
• You won’t start losing weight until you make the decision to change your life for good.
The Science
The science behind this diet is medically sound. Your body burns three different fuels and it always burns them in a particular order.
The first fuel your body will burn is CARBOHYDRATES. Carbohydrates come from starchy foods, sugars, and some vegetables. They convert to sugar in the body and are burned quickly.
The next fuel burned is PROTEIN. Protein is your muscle mass and comes from animal meats and some vegetables. You never want to burn your muscle mass as your heart is a muscle.
Naturally, the last fuel your body will burn is FAT. The good news is that when we teach your body to burn fat for fuel, it is the rocket fuel of your body. Burning fat is a sustained energy that doesn’t fluctuate like carbohydrates.
The Program
Depending upon the amount of weight you want to lose, the plan can be just a weekly plan, or a 5-week plan. We want to make this experience as easy for you as possible, so if you have over 30 pounds to lose, we will cut your weight loss plan into 5 week sessions to make your weight loss experience “bite-sized.”
Do I eat your packaged foods? No, we want this to be the last time you ever have to “go on a diet.” We teach you how to eat properly for the rest of your life. You will be purchasing protein supplements from us, but your main food source will come from your grocery store of choice.
What is a typical meal? For lunch you will eat 1-2 cups of approved vegetables, 4 oz. of lean meat or fish, a protein supplement of your choice and if you are still hungry, unlimited lettuce. A favorite at the Woman’s Clinic is to take 1-2 cups of broccoli and cauliflower and put it in the cream of broccoli or chicken bouillon soup protein supplement with grilled chicken. It makes a really nice stew.
