It is never easy to lose weight and most people do need some effective motivation to attain results.
We often ask ourselves, “How can I shed those extra pounds effectively?”…
We came across a fantastic competition recently launched in South Africa which might just help those of us who always talk about shedding the extra pounds yet never take the bold step to get it going.
Skin & Body Renewal has recently launched a competition in South Africa called The Slender Challenge.
20 overweight people will be chosen to compete to see who can lose the most kilos in 12 weeks. Each one will be given a weight loss programme valued at R10 000.
If the prescribed weight loss program is strictly adhered to, about 350 grams of fat can be lost each day which translates into 10 – 12 kilograms a month.
The winner will receive a 3-D Body Renewal Package from Skin & Body Renewal, valued at R25 000, which is designed to reduce more inches and sculpt the body. Online spot prizes, valued at R25 000, will be awarded to blog followers throughout the competition.
South Africa can follow their progress through the series of daily blogs by the competitors from 01 July – 23 September on www.slenderchallenge.co.za
Sounds pretty much exciting !!! We are definitely entering this competition!!!
Here’s a press release on the fab competition:
South Africans are a nation of people in denial when it comes to perceptions of how overweight, unfit and unhealthy they are. In a recent national health survey initiated by healthcare company GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) it was revealed that 61% South Africans are overweight, obese or morbidly obese. 29% are men and 56% are women. The survey also found that South Africans believe they are healthy, even when they are obese. Only 47% recognise that a lifestyle change is critical to weight loss.
Cosmetic doctor Maureen Allem, who founded the anti-aging, non-surgical clinic Skin & Body Renewal, says fad diets are not the answer and there is no such thing as a miracle slimming drug.
“The only weight loss programme I have found to work is a lifestyle modification that combines nutritional supplements and a sustained eating plan with one other crucial component; a hormone called hCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin) that alters or stimulates a person’s metabolism.”
Just back from the International Anti-aging Congress in Monte Carlo, Allem says the latest research into weight loss has revealed that a low daily injected dose of a hCG, combined with a customised ultra-low calorie (500 – 600) diet, will result in the loss of abnormal, unhealthy fat, leaving essential fat and muscle intact.
To demonstrate this point, Skin & Body Renewal has recently launched a competition called The Slender Challenge. 20 overweight people will be chosen to compete to see who can lose the most kilos in 12 weeks. Each one will be given a weight loss programme valued at R10 000.
Allem says if the prescribed weight loss program is strictly adhered to, about 350 grams of fat can be lost each day which translates into 10 – 12 kilograms a month.
The winner will receive a 3-D Body Renewal Package from Skin & Body Renewal, valued at R25 000, which is designed to reduce more inches and sculpt the body. Online spot prizes, valued at R25 000, will be awarded to blog followers throughout the competition.
