FeyNicks, I have heard of SureSlim, and went and did a info night. Like you said its expensive, and if you can afford it do it. I liked that they do blood work on you so they can say what you are lacking. Its natural foods you can get from your own grocery store too...its not packaged foods.
Good work...please keep us updated on your progress.

Thanks for that Misti - nice to know what others are doing. You seem to have a very sensible approach.

Hey Angie! Yes I think it is expensive. And frankly I have recieved more support from the women at sureslimsupport.com than I have from my consultant. But others find their consultant invaluable. I think it works out similar to w.w. when you pay by meeting/consultation. I am not sure about where you are but in NZ you can pay weekly.

It can be frustrating waiting for your individualised plan, some people have waited up to three weeks for it to arrive as the clinic do not do it, its sent away to a laboratory. And if you have been to an evening and are keen to get started it is not an easy wait.

Interestingly some people start to lose weight when they apply the rules, even before they get their plan. Sureslim detail what foods you can eat (there is quite a list) and a meal planner. But there are also rules. Like not snacking at all. So its just three meals a day and having 5 hours between meals and drinking 2 litres of water per day.

I thought I would die not being able to snack. But seeing as my carb quotas are low G.I. and quite small in proportion you get that appetite supression thing that you get on high protein diets. I can easily glide along past 5 hours and think - 'hang its been nearer 7 hours I suppose I'd better go eat'. I also feel full very quickly. Dont ask my why, but I just could not eat a large plate full of anything anymore.

The secret, if there is one, behind sureslim its the encouraging the body to release HGH (human growth hormone) and this is done by not mixing proteins. I have no clues about the science behind it. But I tell ya the fat is melting off me at a rate of about 1 - 1.3 kilos a week (1 kilo = 2.2 pounds) and I dont work out or anything. I occasionally go for a walk or swim but this HGH thing is not dependent on heavy exersize.

OK I am rambling now. I am happy to answer question off forum. Especially for those who do not have Sureslim in their country yet. So far it is in South Africa, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand.

70.5 kilos (155.1) today. So that is exactly 15 kilos l(33 pounds) lost in......lemme see in 11 weeks and 4 days. 1.3 kilos (2.8 pounds) of fat gone per week on average. I havent gotten to goal yet, but this is not that hard to manage once you get into the swing of things. And preiviously othe plans were really hard to stick to or made minimal progress with. Its so nice to find a plan that suits me. I know its different for everyone, but this feels like a mini miracle.

68.8kilos today. Thats 16.7 kilos lost since February 1st. That said I have found weight loss harder going now. The closer I get to goal the slower it is. Maybe because its a larger percentage being lost. Or maybe it is my body trying to hang on to the last stores in case I concieve and give birth to triplets in Botswana mid famine. I dont know - I do know I am 3.3 kilos away from goal and it is no longer a mad rush to get there. I look and feel like a regular normal sized person for the first time in 20+ years. If this is as good as it gets then I am happy.

Wow! What a fabulous story you have! I can't believe you are almost to goal and it's only been a few months! How incredible!! I have never heard of SureSlim until just reading your posts. I am curious though....Now is not a good time in my life as I am working towards a Master's degree and am pretty much a poor student. The money would be a big issue for me. I just started the Sonoma diet too and am very happy with it thus far. However, it's good to know of other programs out there that work. CONGRATULATIONS!!! You should post more pics, you look so great in the other ones but it seems you've made even MORE progress. YOU GO GIRL!!

I dont know anything about the sonoma diet. Glad it is working for you too. Mine is about understanding how high G.I carbs effect my body and managing my carb addiction Sureslim is made up of proteins, good oils, and low GI and low GL carbs. The first part of the plan is Quick Loss and it really is quite quick compared to other diets. And then LifeStyle - which is similar to QL, but less restrictive and much easier to manage. I am playing with the Lifestyle plan now as I ease on down to my goal weight. Here are some updated photos. I dont look too different between the third and fourth shot as there is only 3 kg difference I think. Its not very visable, but I sure feel it. I have collar bones, hip bones and ribs that I forgot I had. I dont have a flat tummy I have had five babies and they have left a fair bit of damage. I am toying with getting a tummy tuck - but its so expensive and do I really care that much about a flat tum? I dont think I do. I think the last kilos have been harder to melt away as each kilo represents a greater percentage of body weight if you get my drift. I have utterly changed the way I eat and what I eat for life. This was always a lifestyle change anyhow. I could never go back to the old habits - they dont appeal anymore anyhow.



And I cant recall how alter my ticker. - never mind

Okay this one was taken yesterday - please note, collarbones. the same bones that are not visable in my before shot as they were concealed by plump padding

Hi Fey, u must be on ya holiday. well was just scrolling around to see if any1 is using sureslim and what they had to say about it. its been 3 weeks now and i dnt believe the scale everytime i go on it. plus my clothes are becoming baggy and m getting compliments already. yeah 1st 2 weeks were tough as with any other diet but i stuck it out. what makes it worse for me is that there is no sureslim cilinic in SE Asia and i had to send my blood test results to South Africa, becos both Australia and Newzealand clinics where not willing. I comminucate with my my counselor thru emails and chats, i do my weigh-ins with a local Doctor. sounds crazy but all in all m having lots of fun. i have aslo signed up at the gym here nd i swear if m not careful m gonna end up being a gym fanatic. Really is nice of u to post ur b4 and after pics.

I have just started Sureslim. I am hoping to lose 80+ pounds. Wish me luck!!!
