Brain Toniq and Trim Toniq

 My dear friends, I do my best to bring you quality products that could assist you in reaching your health goals – weight loss and weight maintenance included – in this so fast approaching 2012 New Year.

Please take time to learn and research more before you jump and dive into, and undertake drastic changes using new products in achieving your weight loss goals.

One simple rule without any discouragement: You Must make your decision First what you are going to do. The second part of this simple rule – actually doing it – will be coming with much joy and determination when you know you are doing exactly what you set yourself for in the very beginning.

And to help you through the process, today I’ll review one of the quality and safe products to assist you in your weight loss goals.

Today, We’ll Celebrate TrueToniqs!

When I was doing my research this year on the new trends and products this season, I came across an interesting product called Brain Toniq. Obviously, I always wish my brain functioned at the top of its ability. So, I researched and tested this product on my own body.

The results pleasantly surprised me. I tested Brain Toniq first in the morning before my business activities. On the next day, I tried it in the afternoon. On both occasions, I have experienced a pleasantly sustainable flow of focus and energy that I so much need in my daily craziness of schedules and coordination, and quick decision-making.

Let me assure you, that I do not ever test or try on my body anything unless the ingredients list has passed my rigorous consideration.

Brain Toniq has an excellent Nutritional facts.
some of the Ingredients are Blue Gren Algae, Rhodiola Rosea Extract, and Eleutherococcus Extract.

Just to give you an idea what little of the big picture the above ingredients contribute to, glance at these clinically researched facts:

Blue Green Algae (Aphanizomenon flos-aquae)

• Contains Amino Acids and Essential fatty acids (DHA, EPA Omega-3)
• Antioxidants (Betacarotene)
• Polysaccharides that stimulate the migration of immune cells in the body

Rhodiola Rosea Extract

• Exerts an anti-fatige effect that increases mental performance (1,2,3)
• Rich in phytochemicals (which are anti-oxidants to say the least)

Eleutherococcus Extract (or Siberian Ginseng)

• Increased endurance and anti-fatigue (4)
• Memory and learning improvement (5)
• Anti-inflammatory (6)
• Immunogenic (7)

Why Celebrate Woman Loved Brain Toniq:

• All Natural And Non-Harmful Ingredients
• Does what is says it’ll do
• Smooth functioning and no drastic down curves
• Delicious Taste
• Very reasonable price

My experience with Trim Toniq was as pleasant as with Brain Toniq. The major difference between these two drinks is that Trim Toniq curbs our appetite and eliminates cravings. If you think, we need both in order to manage our diet plans for mornings, lunch times, and evenings! If you are launching your new year initiatives in weight loss and maintenance, try both Trim Toniq and Brain Toniq, as both drinks will sure be your Support Group when there’s no one around to give you their shoulder.

Would you like to try Brain and Trim Toniq before you say “yes” to them? Win them! The TrueToniqs Team will provide you a case of a drink of your choice!

Celebrate TrueToniqs Today!

Weight Loss Is A Huge Industry ~ Get Smart What You Consume! CLICK Protein Drink Giveaway ~ Plus Free Samples (Jan 4)

Tweet

CLICK Giveaway Prize, $25 Value

The season of weight loss has already begun. Of course we are only approaching our favorite Christmas eve, but the 27-billion-dollar machine competing for your dollar spent towards energy and weight loss products has already spread out its wings in ambush advertisement, video and online campaigns, and luring you and me into their net of dedicated customers.

I am so much for the products that actually can and do contribute to our personal goals of weight loss and weight maintenance. The only problem I have with the majority of such products is that they have a lot of chemicals and “proprietary blend” options that do not actually disclose to us what they really do to our bodies. To our endocrine system. To our total hormonal system.

When one person finds it out, it can be already late.

So, this season, knowing exactly what is going to happen in this crazy market of weight loss and weight loss products, I researched some new products that are actually Healthy, Do what they say they’ll do, and Support you towards fulfilling your goals.

Today, Celebrate Woman gives you CLICK.

What is CLICK?

CLICK is a protein drink that helps you to lose your weight by supplying your body with essential feeding components like protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, fats.

The coolest thing is that CLICK can be consumed as either cold or hot drink. And my preference is when it’s HOT!

I used CLICK for several days. This product impressed me. Literally, it kept my blood sugar under control, i.e., I did not feel hungry or had any lows in my energy.

To test this protein drink even further, I tried it first in the morning as meal replacement. My dear friends, it kept me going for many hours without any hunger cramps!

I also tested this drink during the day, when I had my regular breakfast. It worked great as well by giving me a normal feel of my energy that allowed me to work through all my projects without thinking about food or feeling tired.

In a word, I like this CLICK product A Lot! First, it’s made out of very quality, non-harmful ingredients. It’s a must for me. Second, it does what it says it’ll do – supply with energy and all the nutrients to keep us going.

Celebrate Woman Gives a Five to the CLICK Team:

• Clean Ingredients List that past my rigorous test
• Pleasant Vanilla and Mocha flavors
• Enjoyable Hot or Cold
• Provides 23 Essential Vitamins and Minerals + 15 Grams of Protein
• Low in Calories and Fats (120 Calories per huge serving)
• Offers Double Shot of Espresso as the alternative to sugary coffee and energy drinks

Express Your Sensual Self: Key to Controlling Your Appetite, Part II

Tweet

Preface from Part I: It's not that you designed your life to be so crowded that your needs get lost in the shuffle. As your needs get submerged in the daily grind, you not only lose sight of the day of the week, (is it Thursday?) – you lose contact with your senses.

Gaining weight loss motivation
If your only pleasure in weight loss is seeing the scale move down a little at a time, you are going to suffer motivational set-backs. Especially if you are on one of those diets that make you eat like a rabbit and sacrifice your favorite treats (don't they all?). You are going to feel deprived. Denied. Restricted. Limited. And when you are feeling that way you need to balance it by increasing your pleasure along the way.

Losing significant weight is not as easy as just consuming fewer calories.

Losing a lot of weight, which can take months to do it and still be healthy, is a challenge to your will power to stay the course. No matter what program you are on, your emotional commitment is going to take a strong beating at times. And the ONLY way to get though that is to have already begun a path of rewarding yourself with pleasures each step along the way.

Find pleasure – lose weight
Otherwise, when the going gets tough (and it will at times) the pleasure you will most likely seek in those weak moments is to overeat – to binge on exactly the wrong foods (other than Bugs Bunny, no one gorges on carrots). Plus, you just set yourself back several weeks in your weight loss plan. With that blown, further discouragement sets in, and the cycle WILL repeat.

The preventive measure is to learn, re-learn, permit yourself to find pleasure in living, smelling, touching, tasting, seeing, and being loved again. And to do it now, to make it a habit BEFORE you experience the long haul of trying to lose significant weight.

You need to feed your body's senses, if you are going to be depriving your body of calories.

The emotional process of losing weight, the path to weight loss motivation, to losing a lot of weight, is going to have to go through you being willing to be sensual once again. Joyfully accepting your sensuality.

Your sensuality will lead you to weight loss. A lot of weight loss.

Don't believe me. Try to lose a lot of weight and keep it off without increasing your sensuality. Oh, yes, you've done that already. We all have. All of us. Now it is time to justify you taking the time, and effort, without guilt or apology, to smell the roses, eat great chocolate, to experience once more – to express once more – the perfect kiss.

How do you control your appetite?
Conclusion: Express Your Sensual Self

Weight Loss Motivation Tips by Susan O’Brien, The Hail Merry Founder (4)

Tweet

RECAP: Susan O’Brien is a raw food genius whose dream is to “create a national brand that can inspire a paradigm shift in the way America perceives and eats snack foods.”

*****

My readers are always talking and asking about women who are successful in their business careers and in their healthy weight maintenance tips.

Susan willingly opens up on her weight loss and weight maintenance points of view.

CelebrateWoman (CW) Susan, have you had weight challenges along the way, especially when you started being involved with your business?

Susan O’Brien (Susan) Absolutely. I am 45 and fighting my new metabolism is tricky. I eat well, so that helps.

My greatest challenge is finding time to work out. If I don’t practice yoga at least 2 times per week ,I really begin to break down mentally and physically. I made a commitment to myself over 10 years ago to make working out and yoga a priority in my life. I still continue to do this.

CW What is the #1 way you motivate yourself to control your weight?

Susan My motivation is a combination of vanity and wanting to feel good. Feeling good being number one. Besides, we all like to look good.

CW What would you tell my women readers who go through their own weight management issues in their busy lives?


Susan You will never be happy in the other aspects of your life if you are not healthy.

We all carry weight differently. I have never thought a super skinny woman looks good.

When you get to be my age, being really skinny makes you look older. Some plumpness is sexy in my opinion. My challenge has always to keep plump without getting a big belly. Once the belly starts to protrude, it’s time to run.....I love to run with my dog.

*****

That’s what Susan thinks and does when it comes down to her weight issues. Each of us is unique. But I think that examples of other women who are successful in their lives really help all of us to get motivated and know that we are beautiful when we are Healthy.

Weight Loss Tips from the Guru Mama

Tweet

Being in business, developing and managing a huge creative process does bring time constraints on where priorities lie. Fitting exercise and healthy eating can be far from being easy.

How does Julianna Shaw takes control of her healthy weight loss and management? Let's visit with her  ask our favorite questions.

CelebrateWoman (CW) Have you had your weight challenges along the way, especially when you started being involved with your business?


Julianna Shaw (Julianna) Most definitely. I started this business shortly after having my 2nd daughter, and I still had the extra baby weight to lose.

Since time was limited, I really had to make exercise a priority in order to fit it into the day. I did that by making sure I scheduled it on the calendar and with a friend to make sure I showed up.


CW What is your #1 tip for weight loss motivation for yourself?


Julianna It’s all about health. I know when I exercise and eat right I feel better and have a better attitude.

CW Any personal word for all my women readers who go through their weight loss and weight management issues?

Julianna I’m a believer in being kind to yourself. We all have drama and stress throughout our lives, and it’s very easy to be unkind.

Like everyone, bite size goals are important, and so is celebrating success (something I’m learning to do).

I also think that a little change in mindset can really help – instead of just thinking about losing weight as the goal, switch the goal around to be about making healthy choices and living a healthy life. Less pressure often times means greater results.
