How I lost 10 Pounds Using Slimshots – Personal Story of Amy
Posted on Sunday, 25th October 2009 in Slim Shots ReviewsI have to start with a confession: that I had almost given up on the hope of ever regaining healthy weight, before I got to use slim shots, just a few weeks ago. Thanks to the Slim Shots though, I have so far been able to lose 10 pounds…and counting, leading to a reawakening of my dream of one day soon regaining a healthy body weight.
To give you a back ground, I have struggled with the weight problem, for quite some time now. Although I had relatively healthy weight in my teens and early tweens, things really started to go badly for me (weight-wise) after the birth of my first baby, when I was 25. Initially, I assumed that what I had was the ‘normal weight gain’ associated with pregnancy, which I would lose upon delivering the baby. But I couldn’t have been more wrong, because far from losing weight upon delivery, I actually ended up gaining more weight.
When the scales hit 180 pounds (and considering I am barely five foot tall), I knew that it was time to find a way of doing something about my weight. My family doctor too, had strongly hinted at this: going as far as mentioning scary words like blood pressure, diabetes and heart attacks in the discussion – and then closing the discussion with mention of something to do with the need to maintain healthy body weight.
Thus began my weight loss journey. While embarking on it, I thought that weight loss for me would just be a matter of starting to exercise, slight substitutions here and there in diet…and I would be good. Again, I couldn’t have been more wrong. For a start, I had initiated an ‘exercise regime’ involving going to work on foot (about a couple of kilometers away from home) and back everyday. I hoped that this would be enough exercise to lose me weight. Four weeks down the road – and far from losing weight, the scales were inching closer to the 200 pound mark!
Panicking, I decided that perhaps the substitutions I had made in my diet were not good enough. Maybe I should start skipping meals. While this approach, combined with the walking to work seemed to work initially, I often ended up binge eating to make up for the meals I had skipped, so that when I went to check in the next month, I noticed that the scales had now simply gone past the 200 mark. This is spite of what I considered my very best weight loss efforts.
Suffice it to say that between that point, and when I came across Slim Shots about a couple of years later, I had tried pretty much everything said to help from weight loss: from very rigorous gym programs, the so called ‘crazy’ diets to even stuff like hypnosis. I was desperate for weight loss, you see.
Then I came across Slimshots about a month ago. Although I was pretty much tired with trying out stuff, and was on the verge of giving up on the whole weight loss venture, I decided I had nothing to lose by taking up the Slimshots. After all, they didn’t involve doing a lot: just downing some yummy tasting stuff. Initially, I was taking two shots per day (as recommended) with my coffee, before switching to the one shot a day after the ‘initializing’ period. And to say that the results have been amazing would be an understatement. In barely a month, I have managed to lose 10 pounds of weight, absolutely painlessly with the help of Slimshots. This, by the way, is more weight than I have been able to shake off cumulatively, even with the best of my other previous weight loss efforts. What is more, apart from making me feel less like eating, Slimshots have the effect of making me somehow upbeat (I guess it is because of the less food, hence less load on the digestive system), so that the ‘shots’ end up being not just a weight loss aid, but a ‘mood lifter’ as well. If 10 pounds is what I could lose in a month with the shots, there is no telling what I may get six months down the line. I guess this is the key to real weight loss I have been so desperately looking for, and I am not holding my horses before heralding it as such.
