Here is the only proven weight-loss formula.
The calories you consume must be less than you expend
I see that the New You stuff has a dvd with training videos, supplements and also some exercise bands that you can use at home to exercise with.
Never really been a gym person....but can probably do it at home. I was at their website and it looks like a complete system.
But would like to hear from someone that is on it first.

exorsize the demon!
Smartest comment of the day.
Buy a heart rate monitor instead of wasting money on garbage, exercise in the correct heart rate zones for weight loss, eat properly.
I have "dieted" recently, by diet i dont mean rabbit food, simply no carbs after 4, small regular portions of food, no soft drinks. I exercise in the right zones, and am losing around 1.5 kg a week. And i still cheat regularly.

We have a rather large woman here at work who has always ALWAYS been on some sort of diet.
She eats healthy but just sits on her LARGE ass all day.
You can't exactly expect the fat to just... leave on it's own.
I asked her to do the Big walk and she just laughed at me.
As a matter of fact, I had a good laugh today, I went to the food area and saw her, I greeted her with the normal greeting and then said "how is the diet going" and she replied with... "great! I lost 1kg this month"
The people around me just laughed... she smiled away like she achieved greatness.

+1 - calorie counting - it works and pro's use it
+1 - training in the zone
+1^google - training like a deamon
It is also important to determine what you're goal is, losing weight is easy and starvation will go a long way in reducing the fat, and the muscle and once you stop expect the rebound...Losing fat on the other hand is a little bit more complex but if you do it right there is no rebound

And do not quit smoking!!! I'm gaining 2kg a week....
Thats such a cop out really. You *CAN* quit smoking and not gain a KG. It's called "don't put **** in your mouth"
Same goes when I tell people how to stop smoking. Its easy. You just stop.
But because they have the habit of having **** in their mouth constantly they start eating more instead. WTF?
Get a grip, your subconscious CANT be THAT hard to override with some constant thinking.
"Gee, do I eat this donut because I'm starved for a sigarette? No lets just drink some water and wait for lunch"
Cravings are for the weak

I guess it is the fact that you eat more because you feel more nervous / fidgety with lack of nicotine.
But i do not do those bad stuff..Thats such a cop out really. You *CAN* quit smoking and not gain a KG. It's called "don't put **** in your mouth"

It could be related to you body type (somatotype). I personally am a bit of a endomorph and a mesomorph so gaining muscle is easy but losing fat is a royal pain in the @ss. Likewise I'm massively sensitive to carbs and as such I fatten up quickly so I try to limit it as much as possible.

first thing you must always remember, is that proper results don't happen over night - those loose 7kgs-a-week options is crap, and you will put the weight back on, plus maybe more.
so keep up the good eating habits, exercise etc, maybe incl small extra things like taking the stairs instead of the lift, don't drive around looking for the closest possible parking to the mall entrance
maybe join up a group like weighless, weightwatchers etc, as sometimes its just that bit of extra motivation that you need
Okay went and bought the New You Exercise pack and Value Pack. Got a ball, pump and the elastic bands that you use for resistance training. Looks like a decent package, beter than some other stuff I used before. I also got a dvd with some testimonials and what seems to be a decent training program on it for beginner, intermediate and advance. They explain in details what every product is for which gives me the feeling that they know what they are doing and not trying to just sell me a product that will not work or cause me damage.
Looks like allot of science went into this. Lets see how this works and I will post my results on the site.
