Dieting often produces side effects like fatigue, mental dullness, and metabolic slowdown or "plateau". For these and other side effects of a low calorie diet, hCGTreatments / Diet Doc Weight Loss Plans created the prescription diet pill Slim Down, containing a physician designed mixture of potent fast weight loss ingredients to boost any diet and prevent frustrating side effects.
Dallas, TX (PRWEB) October 16, 2012
Diet Doc's prescription Slim Down contains an energy boosting 5000mcg of vitamin B12, which aids cellular metabolism throughout every cell in the body. Vitamin B12 has been found to help people feel less worn down, more mentally alert, and to speed up metabolism. Slim Down prescription diet pills from Diet Doc include other substance to aid the B12 in producing these desired effects. In addition to B12, Slim Down diet pills include herbal extracts like green tea, apple cider vinegar, hoodia, guarana extract, yerba matte extract, and grapefruit powder. Each of these ingredients works in unison to aid metabolic balance and increase metabolic function, ultimately leading to fast weight loss. Each of these ingredients were chosen for their unique ability to spur weight loss, while also promoting overall metabolic wellbeing. Diet Doc's physicians recommend prescription Slim Down to their clients on the hCG diet for its ability to block the absorption of sugar and suppress appetite. While Slim Down is a prescription diet pill, it contains no harmful stimulants like ephedra or phentramine; Slim Down does however contain about as much caffeine as found in 2 cups of coffee.
Slim down is a prescription diet pill, so Diet Doc's fast weight loss physicians must first medically evaluate clients, and then prescribe Slim Down diet pills accordingly. hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet & Weight Loss provides free consultation to each new client. Diet Doc offers nationwide service, even to those outside of their examination area via the Telehealth system, which allows physicians to interact with clients over video conferencing software like Skype. With the use of this new technology, anyone who wants to lose weight fast can do so on a Diet Doc customized prescription hCG diet, and also receive invaluable supporting supplements like Slim Down to aid in fast weight loss. Diet Doc / hCGTreatments is available for teleconference 6 days a week, and new customers receive free shipping on first time orders. Diet Doc CEO Julie Wright adds, "We strive to maintain growth to meet the demand and hope to continue offering natural weight loss solutions that can be tried by anyone in the future."

Safflower products promise fast weight loss in a bottle. But it seems that what dieters actually receive is another yo-yo diet that most often leads to regaining more weight then was initially lost. While on a prescription hCG diet from Diet Doc Weight Loss, clients routinely lose weight fast, on average of 1 pound per day.
Austin, TX (PRWEB) October 16, 2012
hCGTreatments / Diet Doc Founder and CEO Julie Wright warns that, "those looking to lose an extreme amount of weight, like so many of the obese population in America, have to be careful not to get caught up in fad or yo-yo diets. When looking to lose weight fast and keep it off, it is important to choose a product that will not place you into the common yo-yo cycle of temporary weight loss and eventual gain. Studies show that people who get caught in yo-yo diets often regain more weight than they initially lose.
A prescription hCG diet offers a solution to yo-yo dieting. An hCG diet is a healthy and effective diet plan that offers permanent and fast weight loss, and the necessary lifestyle changes to teach patients how to keep the weight off in the future. Diet Doc offers prescription hCG in three easy to administer forms: injections, sublingual drops, and tablets, all of which routinely produce fast weight loss results that are a staggering 33 times greater than safflower supplements. Using a combination of prescription hCG and a Diet Doc individually tailored, low calorie diet for 3 to 6 weeks has proven to be extremely successful for fast weight loss. It is not uncommon for patients to lose 1 pound or more per day while on Diet Doc's prescription hCG diet. Produced in the placenta of women who are pregnant, prescription hCG is naturally occurring, not manufactured in a laboratory, has little to no side effects, and is easily administered and monitored. hCG works by signaling the hypothalamus which in turn commands the body to release excess stored fat into the bloodstream where it is burned easily for energy. When used in conjunction with a low calorie diet, hCG generates very effective and fast weight loss. hCG triggers the release of excess fat without affecting structural fat and muscle tissue, so patients do not lose much-needed muscle mass. When using hCG, patients lose fat in trouble areas like hips, thighs, waist, and underarms.

Follow these best rules of thumb when youre eating for weight loss.
No carbs after 5pm or no carbs at all? Low fat or Low GI? When it comes to dieting there's a world of contradictory information out there. If you're struggling to shed kilos it pays to keep it simple.
"The safe rate of weight loss is 0.5-1kg/week on average. Fad diets and quick fixes may sound appealing but you're unlikely to learn new healthy habits. And, in most cases, you are mainly shifting body fluid (water) not body fat. This can have unwanted side effects like headaches, irritability and bad breath," says Emma Stirling, consultant dietician for Weight Watchers Australia.
"Surround yourself with a supportive environment and don't try to go it alone. Support should come from a range of areas, like a partner or friend who comes along for the journey or tools such as an iPhone app tracker that makes sticking to plan easier and helps you track your goals." Try websites such as My Fitness Pal or Calorie King.
Emma says that stress management is also becoming increasingly recognised as an important part of weight management. "Not just the obvious things, like keeping control of emotional eating, but watching for elevated hormones such as cortisol that may lead to more central body fat being deposited."
"The best motto you can have is 'Just Keep Going'". "Plateaus in a weight loss journey - when your weight stays the same for a period of time - are to be expected. Weight loss is not a perfect down ward graph each week - look at the average loss over time and you'll be amazed at your progress."
Top tips:
1. Keep hydrated, thirst can be mistaken for hunger and drinking a glass of water before a meal will help fill you up.
2. When eating out, always choose the smaller portion sizes. Look for restaurants and chains that offer healthier options and particularly those that disclose their nutritional information.
3. Alcohol equals empty calories and you're more likely to throw dietary caution to the wind when you've had a few. If you can't cut it out all then together set limits around how much you drink in a week and factor it into your diet.

New Zealands largest and most successful weight-loss organisation is planning a major assault on the nations obesity epidemic. Weight Watchers Plate of our Nation is an ambitious and far-reaching movement which puts our attitudes to food and activity under the microscope in a bid to offer real solutions to get our nation healthy again.
With 64.8 percent of Kiwis now overweight or obese1, New Zealand ranks as one of the fattest countries in the developed world. Weight Watchers is investing its 50 years of experience and scientific research to be the first commercial weight-loss organisation to take action and affect real change on our countrys collective waistlines.
Weight Watchers Plate of our Nation kicked-off in earnest with a unique, multi-layered study to investigate the root causes of the deepening obesity crisis. The report covers all areas from lifestyle, exercise, body image, health and wellbeing, finding significant disparities between generations attitudes towards activity levels, food consumption, cooking skills and weight. It reveals how gradual changes in the way we eat, move and live our lives, have crept up on us over time, and points to a grim picture for New Zealands future, with food knowledge rapidly diminishing.
Plate of our Nation key findings:
- 53% of young adults consider heating chicken nuggets to be cooking
- Nearly 4 out of 10 (39%) Generation Z respondents are unable to correctly identify staple veggies such as leek or zucchini
- 82% of Generation Z respondents dont use any fresh ingredients in their daily evening meals
- New Zealanders rarely eat as a sole activity; 81% of us are consuming meals while doing other things, from reading, texting to working, which has been shown to lead to over-eating
- 42% of New Zealanders continue eating until overfull
- On an average day, 42% of New Zealanders exercise, compared to 87% that watch TV

LA Weight Loss launches its Slim Sipping Cookbook with something for everyone in the family.
Greensboro, North Carolina (PRWEB) October 15, 2012
While drinking water frequently is important for weight loss and general good health, its nice to have a drink with some flavor and pizzazz every once in a while. Unfortunately, many alternatives to plain H2O like sugary sodas or rich, creamy lattes are easy ways to guzzle unnecessary calories. In fact, the average American consumes an extra 245 calories a day from soft drinks. Thats nearly 90,000 calories a year! Divide that by the 3,500 calories it takes to gain or lose a pound of fat and that translates into 25 pounds a year that could be lost by replacing soda with healthier beverages. With LAs Slim Sipping cookbook, LA Weight Loss nutritionists have developed over 20 program-approved recipes that the whole family will enjoy. Heres just a sampling of recipes sure to meet the approval of any breakfast skipper, sweet tooth or coffee fiend in the family.
The Breakfast Skipper: Breakfast may be the most important meal of the day, but old habits die hard with the breakfast skipper. If oatmeal or egg-white omelets seem like too much of a change to stomach, start forming good lifelong habits with a smoothie as part of a healthy breakfast instead. Try a delicious good morning Jump-Start Energy Drink made by blending fibre cereal, strawberries, milk and yogurt. Or make a Frozen Fruit Smoothie by placing raspberries, a banana, orange juice, yogurt and vanilla extract in a blender and blend until smooth. Best of all, both are on-program and good for the whole family!
The Sweet Tooth: Out of sight doesnt always equal out of mind. While unhealthy sweets and snacks may have been banished from the cupboards, sometimes they still sneak back into the house via ice-cream shop stops, Halloween treats or holiday baking. If willpower isnt enough, try bringing leftover treats into work to share with the office. Next, get to the root of the sweet tooth: address a sugar fix with some sweet alternatives. Set a good example by curbing that sweet tooth with a Banana Split Shake, Lemon Meringue Shake or Creamsicle Shake. For a recipe the kids can enjoy, substitute SlimDown powder with Greek yogurt or frozen yogurt before blending the remainder of the ingredients.
The Coffee Fiend: Is someone in the family craving creamy coffee-based concoctions? With a chill in the air, it becomes tempting to warm up with seasonally inspired menu additions. But spiced syrups can be loaded with calories. Save bucks by making healthier versions of favorite fall drinks at home instead. Invest in a thermos and brew Hot Chai Tea or Spiced Coffee. Or for a refreshing treat, try an icy Coffee Granita.
Dieters often have difficulty integrating their family into their new, healthier lifestyle, said Caroline Kolompar, Chief Marketing Officer of LA Weight Loss Centers. LA Weight Loss focuses on real foods available anytime, anywhere so the whole family can enjoy the same meals together. The online introduction of LAs SIim Sipping Cookbook offers new, creative ways to enjoy some of your favorite beverages and discover new ones. Not only do these recipes taste great, but theyll leave you feeling satisfied helping you lose weight and reach your weight-loss goals faster.
About LA Weight Loss
Since 1997, LA Weight Loss has helped millions of people reach their long-term weight loss goals. Whether clients visit an LA Weight Loss center for one-on-one counseling or opt for the convenience of the at-home program, members lose an average of one to two pounds per week and learn how to keep it off for good. At LA Weight Loss, healthy living is not just for the rich and famous its for everyone. For more information about LA Weight Loss, visit http://www.LAWeightLoss.com.

The findings of the Weight Watchers Plate of our Nation survey are undeniable: as a society, were largely sedentary, weve lost touch with the value of fresh food and the importance of savouring mealtimes, and its the younger generation whose food knowledge is most at risk. Armed with this information, Weight Watchers is gearing up to take action.
Award-winning chef, Pete Evans, has teamed-up with Weight Watchers for the Plate of our Nation mission and is also joined by a team of specialists in the field of nutrition, psychology and exercise science. He explained his involvement:
As a chef, and someone who is in the business of bringing pleasure through food, people might be surprised to hear me being so vocal about this issue. I approached Weight Watchers some time ago because I am genuinely concerned about the growing obesity epidemic and where we are headed. Weve swapped fresh for fast, and quality for convenience, our knowledge of food and cooking skills are in decline. Were busier than ever before, but technology means that our days are filled with so much sitting watching TV, browsing the net whats worse, we do these things while were eating, so were not giving our food and mealtime the respect they deserve.
Its time for a re-think and who better than Weight Watchers to rally the nation and get us thinking about this issue and taking action?

Weight Loss Giant Wages War on Australia’s Obesity Epidemic

As the most prominent faces of Canadas thriving weight-loss-surgery industry, Slimband Inc.s wholesomely attractive models are hard to miss. The upbeat ads featuring fit and smiling men and women offer an unmistakable pitch: Lives are being transformed through worry-free treatment.
Malpractice lawsuits, accounts of former employees and a survey by the National Post, however, paint a more complicated picture of the self-described national leader in the weight-loss treatment business, raising questions about screening, preparation and post-operative care of patients who undergo surgery, performed under general anesthetic, at the clinic.
Slimband, which has branches across Canada, has attracted thousands of customers, who would face years-long wait lists in the backlogged public sector. But there are also allegations that just about anyone willing to pay the $16,000 fee can have the food-restricting gastric band installed even if theyre not overweight and that Slimband salespeople often understate the risks of a significant medical operation while exaggerating its benefits.
The company strongly refutes that it skimps on services or fails to properly screen patients, pointing to a customer-feedback survey it conducted last year in which eight of 10 respondents said they would recommend Slimbands services to others.
I speak to patients on a regular basis who tell me that Slimband has changed their lives in ways they never dreamed possible, said Michael Scot-Smith, the companys owner. These are people who have struggled most of their lives to lose weight diets, pills, exercise regimes without success. They had lost hope. Slimband helped them regain it.
Dr. Mehran Anvari, president of the Canadian Association of Bariatric Physicians and Surgeons, says these kinds of banding operations are considered relatively safe. Canadian law also requires that physicians fully inform patients of a treatments risks and benefits before obtaining their consent. But malpractice suits filed by two patients in recent months allege that things can go seriously wrong. The plaintiffs both maintain that Slimbands implanted gastric-banding devices perforated their stomachs and caused dangerous infections. They allege the clinic had glossed over the potential for severe complications.
None of the charges has been proven in court, and the company and surgeon have so far filed a statement of defence in one case insisting the patient was fully informed of risks and the operation performed safely.
Dr. Anvari said he had no personal knowledge of Slimbands system. If the allegations about lightly vetted and poorly prepared patients are true, he said, it would be totally below the standard for such surgery.
Any procedure which is not warranted should be avoided, said the physician, noting that weight-loss surgery has physical and psychological side effects that set it apart. Its not like appendicitis surgery, because it really affects peoples [lives] very significantly.
But clients such as Jody Duclos and others whose testimonials sprinkle Slimbands ads and website rave about the results. The 38-year-old sales manager from Moose Jaw, Sask., weighed 400 pounds, saw Slimbands ads and decided enoughs enough. After his operation last October, he calls it amazing that hes already down 120 pounds, just 60 pounds away from his goal. Im a new person, he said.

Testosterone levels begin to decrease incrementally in men beginning at the age of 30. hCGTreatments / Diet Doc hCG Diet & Weight Loss Plans recognizes the need for aging men to increase testosterone levels, and recommends that they do it naturally with a prescription hCG diet, proven to help men shed unwanted weight and naturally boost testosterone levels.
Dalas, TX (PRWEB) October 13, 2012
hCG or Human Chorionic Gonadotropin, is a hormone discovered by an Endocrinologist named A.T.W.Simeons in the 1950s, and when paired with a regulated, low-calorie diet, the hCG diet plan delivers fast weight loss and beneficial side effects. Men who are obese or just trying to lose a little weight, and who are over 50 will undoubtedly experience the greatest benefit from a prescription hCG diets ability to help lower cholesterol, blood pressure, and balance blood sugar levels. In addition, hCG naturally signals the male body to produce a little extra testosterone, the key to feeling young over 50.
A study conducted by Stephen E Borst and Thomas Mulligan indicated that "In older men, low circulating testosterone is correlated with low muscle strength, with high adiposity, with insulin resistance and with poor cognitive performance." hCGTreatments / Diet Doc Weight Loss have found that an effective way to manage low testosterone in aging men, and drop unwanted weight is with a prescription hCG diet. Low testosterone plagues many men over 50, who seek testosterone therapy from over-the-counter sources or synthetically manufactured drugs that are somewhat untested.
A lack or results can be frustrating for many older males, but Diet Doc offers a natural solution to novel testosterone treatments. For men looking to shed unwanted weight, a clinically supervised hCG diet offers the necessary weight loss benefits, but with the added positive, naturally-occurring effect of raising the perpetually lowering testosterone levels in older males, safely and without the side effects of traditional high level testosterone replacement therapy. Natural testosterone is produced by the patient's own body in response to hCG treatments. According to Borst and Mulligan, "[traditional] testosterone therapy produces a number of adverse effects, including worsening of sleep apnea, gynecomastia, polycythemia and elevation of PSA." However, with clinically monitored, physician designed prescription hCG diets from Diet Doc, males over 50 can lose unwanted weight safely and effectively, meanwhile boosting sagging testosterone levels naturally, and without any side effects of synthetic testosterone.
Roughly 10% to 25% of males age 50 and older have low testosterone. A study published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism states that "men over 50 may not live as long if they have low testosterone." Male patients who are overweight, and over 50 will benefit from the prescription hCG diet plan the most as they gain two-fold: these patients lose weight fast, increasing their overall health, and simultaneously experience an increase in testosterone in the bloodstream which further increases overall health, increasing their lifespan. The natural testosterone produced when on the hCG diet is much more subtle than testosterone replacement therapy, and naturally occurs inside the patient's body in response to presence of hCG. This slight increase is because hCG mimics luteinizing hormone (LH) which stimulates the testicles to produce testosterone. It is common for energy to go up once in ketosis (optimal fat burning) when combined with the potential for some testosterone stimulation. Diet Doc Weight Loss vigorously monitors patients to ensure a safe, medically supervised weight loss experience that produces fast weight loss and natural incremental increase in needed testosterone.
