 Hi Everyone.  

On 14 May 2012 I will have been on my TLC-Program for two months.  My general health has stabilised, I am feeling  great !  My husband actually asked me last night with a huge smile, “have you noticed what you have done for three nights in a row? “ 1st night I was running with my 19 month old and our Jack Russel, 2nd night I was dancing with my 13 year old daughter and yesterday I was running to check on a neighbouring house which was burgled.  Yes!  Tania is running, something I haven’t done in years.

I am so excited and even more motivated now , more than ever before.  This is something I am doing for myself.  People  are noticing, and I am actually getting proud of who I am becoming again. 

Only 22.4 kgs to go.  My next “short term goal:  90kgs!

Follow Tania’s weight-loss journey!

Tania March 2012

My name is Tania and I have decided to share my weight loss journey with you!

Social habits dictate that we ”eat, drink and be happy”….. however nowhere does it add, “and slowly kill yourself in the process”.  That is what I have been doing over the past couple of years.  Living the “happy” life enjoying a drink, and unhealthy foods (lots of it)!  As an asthmatic, with severe allergies, my health started deteriorating, from having to use my Asthma pump perhaps 2 to 3 times a week, I ended up having to use it at least 2 to 3 times a day.  This was until my near death experience due to a reaction and a doctor telling me I am killing myself with my eating habits, mostly a lack of food, and then eating all the wrong foods. 

With my health issues, I was feeling so sick and embarrassed, I couldn’t fit into any of my clothes, and due to me being generally unhappy within myself, I was constantly fighting with those close to me. I have spent thousands or rands going to clinics for fat zapping and taking any and every weight loss tablet I could get my hands on, however nothing worked. 

That was until I found TLC-For-Weight-Loss-Wellbeing.  I joined TLC and soon enough I started feeling better and the weight started falling off.  My Asthma pump became something I only needed now and again when seasons turned.  I lost weight, became so well and then I fell pregnant before I could do Phase 3 of my TLC-Program.  TLC recommended that I stop any dieting, eat healthily while pregnant.  After having my baby I went back to my old habits, drinking, eating and just being merry without watching myself.  The weight started pounding on again, with interest!

This was until about a month ago, when I realised the reason why I am what I am is because I allowed myself to regress and I was mentally preventing a better, healthier me.  I contacted TLC again as I knew from past experience nothing else will work,  there is no lasting quick fix.  I am now on track again.

Me before TLC!

So I want to share my journey with you as I go along.  So watch this space and I will post frequent updates on how I am doing.

This is my progress so far:

Phase 1 started on 14.03.2012
Weighed in at 111.1kgs - A very tight size 42
Hip Measurement:  134cm
Waist Measurement:  117cm

20.03.2012 – Phase 2 starting weight 109.4
28.03.2012 – 106.2kgs
04.04.2012 – 103.8kgs
18.04.2012 – 102kgs

Weight loss to date:  (1 month) 9.1kgs – Yeah!

Oh, and did I tell you that I am now also a TLC-Retailer – in Malvern, Durban – so contact me if you would like to do a TLC-Program with ME!  Afterall, isn’t it more fun to lose weight together??

Great reasons to eat an Apple-a-day!

In 2004, USDA scientists investigated over 100 foods to measure their antioxidant concentration per serving size. Two apples—Red Delicious and Granny Smith—ranked 12th and 13th respectively. 

Antioxidants are disease-fighting compounds. Scientists believe these compounds help prevent and repair oxidation damage that happens during normal cell activity. Apples are also full of a fibre called pectin—a medium-sized apple contains about 4 grams of fibre. Pectin is classed as a soluble, fermentable and viscous fibre, a combination that gives it a huge list of health benefits.

  • Get whiter, healthier teeth.  An apple won’t replace your toothbrush, but biting and chewing an apple stimulates the production of saliva in your mouth, reducing tooth decay by lowering the levels of bacteria.
  • Avoid Alzheimer’s. A new study performed on mice shows that drinking apple juice could keep Alzheimer’s away and fight the effects of aging on the brain. Mice in the study that were fed an apple-enhanced diet showed higher levels of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and did better in maze tests than those on a regular diet.
  • Protect against Parkinson’s.  Research has shown that people who eat fruits and other high-fibre foods gain a certain amount of protection against Parkinson’s, a disease characterized by a breakdown of the brain’s dopamine-producing nerve cells. Scientists have linked this to the free radical-fighting power of the antioxidants contained therein.
  • Curb all sorts of cancers.  Scientists from the American Association for Cancer Research, among others, agree that the consumption of flavonol-rich apples could help reduce your risk of developing pancreatic cancer by up to 23 per cent. Researchers at Cornell University have identified several compounds—triterpenoids—in apple peel that have potent anti-growth activities against cancer cells in the liver, colon and breast. Their earlier research found that extracts from whole apples can reduce the number and size of mammary tumours in rats. Meanwhile, the National Cancer Institute in the U.S. has recommended a high fibre intake to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.
  • Decrease your risk of diabetes. Women who eat at least one apple a day are 28 percent less likely to develop Type 2 Diabetes than those who don’t eat apples. Apples are loaded with soluble fibre, the key to blunting blood sugar swings.
  • Reduce cholesterol.  The soluble fibre found in apples binds with fats in the intestine, which translates into lower cholesterol levels and a healthier you.
  • Get a healthier heart.  An extensive body of research has linked high soluble fibre intake with a slower buildup of cholesterol-rich plaque in your arteries. The phenolic compound found in apple skins also prevents the cholesterol that gets into your system from solidifying on your artery walls. When plaque builds inside your arteries, it reduces blood flow to your heart, leading to coronary artery disease.
  • Prevent gallstones.  Gallstones form when there’s too much cholesterol in your bile for it to remain as a liquid, so it solidifies. They are particularly prevalent in the obese. To prevent gallstones, doctors recommend a diet high in fibre to help you control your weight and cholesterol levels.
  • Beat diarrhea and constipation.  Whether you can’t go to the bathroom or you just can’t stop, fibre found in apples can help. Fibre can either pull water out of your colon to keep things moving along when you’re backed up, or absorb excess water from your stool to slow your bowels down.
  • Neutralize irritable bowel syndrome.  Irritable bowel syndrome is characterized byconstipation, diarrhea, and abdominal pain and bloating. To control these symptoms doctors recommend staying away from dairy and fatty foods while including a high intake of fibre in your diet.
  • Avert hemorrhoids.  Hemorrhoids are a swollen vein in the anal canal and while not life threatening, these veins can be very painful. They are caused by too much pressure in the pelvic and rectal areas. Part and parcel with controlling constipation, fibre can prevent you from straining too much when going to the bathroom and thereby help alleviate hemorrhoids.
  • Control your weight.  Many health problems are associated with being overweight, among them heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and sleep apnea. To manage your weight and improve your overall health, doctors recommend a diet rich in fibre.Foods high in fibre will fill you up without costing you too many calories.
  • Detoxify your liver.  We’re constantly consuming toxins, whether it is from drinks or food, and your liver is responsible for clearing these toxins out of your body. Many doctors are skeptical of fad detox diets, saying they have the potential to do more harm than good. Luckily, one of the best—and easiest—things you can eat to help detoxify your liver is fruits—like apples.
  • Boost your immune system. Red apples contain an antioxidant called quercetin. Recent studies have found that quercetin can help boost and fortify your immune system, especially when you’re stressed out.
  • Prevent cataracts.  Though past studies have been divided on the issue, recent long-term studies suggest that people who have a diet rich in fruits that contain antioxidants—like apples—are 10 to 15 per cent less likely to develop cataracts.

Some interesting Sugar Facts!

Did you know that following sugar intake, there is an increase in the urinary excretion of calcium? No wonder those people on a high sugar diet are affected by more arthritis, sore joints, kidney stones and muscle cramps. Sugar also increases dental plaque and suppresses your immune system by inhibiting white cell function. Sugar also competes with vitamin C. So, if you are ingesting sugar with every meal and snack, you are consistently compromising your immune system.

Stevia rebaudiana- Stevia, known as “sweet herb“, this plant is 25 times sweeter than sugar when made as an infusion with 1 teaspoon stevia leaves to 1 cup of water. Two drops of this infusion equal 1 teaspoon of sugar in sweetness. It is safe for a diabetic as it is does not change blood glucose levels. It does have a bit of an aftertaste you need to get used to.

In South America and the Orient a product derived of stevia called Stevioside has a 41% share of the food sweetener market. There are some healing benefits of stevia as well.

Stevia is known to help regulate blood sugar, helps to lower high blood pressure, aids in weight loss by decreasing the desire for sugary foods. Some people even report that it reduces their desire for tobacco and alcoholic beverages. Stevia is also used in facemasks to smooth out wrinkles and heal skin blemishes and acne. So why don’t we see more of it? Apparently the import of stevia was heavily influenced by Nutrasweet politics.

Aspartame, Nutrasweet or Equal- Aspartame is the combination of two amino acids, phenylalanine and aspartic acid. 200 times sweeter than sugar, seems to stimulate the appetite and cause side effects such as PKU seizures (phenylketonuria), high blood pressure, headaches, insomnia, ovarian cancer, and brain tumors.

In addition to throwing off the body’s homeostasis, excess sugar may result in a number of other significant consequences. The following is a listing of some of sugar’s metabolic consequences from a variety of medical journals and other scientific publications.

Wow! 23kg lighter I feel fantastic … Carolyn (TLC-Client AbuDhabi)

“Fifty pounds ago I asked God to help me be able to lose weight in a healthy and lasting way.

I suffered from sleep deprivation, sore joints and knee issues.  My doctor said I needed to lose weight or I would require knee surgery.

I was inspired and introduced to TLC by a dear friend who had conquered her weight issues with a TLC program.  

WOW,   now over 51 pounds lighter I feel fantastic, I enjoy eating fresh fruits and vegetables, I do not need knee surgery anymore and I feel rested upon wakening.   

I have so much more energy now, which I so dearly need to keep up with our grandchildren.

Thanks TLC for the new me”.

I’ll NEVER be called ‘Fat Granny’ ever again! … Fran’s Story!

“As the years went by, I went from a slim, sporty 34 to a blubbering slob of 40 – extra large! In my early days, when I saw someone looking like what I became, I always said I’d never let myself go like that. But, then came the hysterectomy, the menopause and an under-active thyroid which pushed my whole body haywire.

My blood pressure became erratic through chronic hypertension, my cholesterol went way too high, my hormones were completely unbalanced and I really didn’t like facing the look of the person I’d become – I couldn’t even look at myself in a mirror without feeling depressed. My self image was at an all time low, so I turned to comfort eating as a solution, particularly chocolates!

The final straw came when my visiting innocent 5 year old grandson called me “Fat Granny”. That did it!

I didn’t believe in diets or going to the gym as an option. I came across the TLC programme after seeing my sister, who had just returned from the UK and who I hadn’t seen for 6 months. I couldn’t believe how healthy and well she looked. Here was someone, who 6 months earlier, was grossly overweight, had the unhealthy look of the cancer sufferer with diabetes thrown in too. She had always tried the quick fix in diets, liposuction and the plastic surgeon … to no avail. This was different, the change was so dramatic that I had to find out more about the TLC programme which she’d completed. So where else but Google … and I knew then, that I’d found my weight loss solution.

Fran before TLC

Despite a very busy work schedule and lifestyle, I found TLC easy to follow. But with anything to be successful, you do need to be dedicated, committed and self disciplined because it’s a complete healthy lifestyle change. It also helps to have encouragement from your loved ones, as I did.

It’s taken 3 months to lose 12 kgs and to drop back to a healthy 36, without cellulite flapping around nor the need to go to gym. My blood pressure hasn’t been so normal for the past 5 years and without medication. My cholesterol and thyroid are almost back to normal but well in control with natural medicines and my hormones are at last balanced.

I feel great and look so well with my energy levels much higher. Compliments are flying in! My self image has really improved – I can even wear a swimming costume in public without feeling self conscious. Oh … and the best is … I’ll NEVER be called ‘Fat Granny’ ever again! I can’t say thank you enough to TLC for helping me get myself back to someone I actually like and am proud to be.

Now for that new wardrobe ………………..

Fran did her TLC-Program in Gillitts, Durban.
