Please note - the press release below is reproduced verbatim, I am not personally advocating it.  I just thought it may be of interest.

The SANKOM Swiss Diet Kit offers a new healthy and natural approach to weight loss -- it is the solution to help you lose weight

Delémont, Switzerland -- Feb 29, 2012 / (http://www.myprgenie.com) -- via NaturalPresswire.com -- The SANKOM Swiss Diet Kitcontains natural and tasty chews which suppress the appetite and thereby help lower the calorie intake and weight. The Swiss-made product is available in a variety of delicious fruity flavors (St rawberry, Cherry, Peach and Green Tea). Take one chew with a glass of water 30-45 minutes before lunch to reduce your appetite. One chew contains as little as 15 calories but can help cut the calories for a regular meal intake by half.

The weight loss results of the Intuitive Nutrition Program by SANKOM have been clinically proven. A clinical study was carried outby Rome University on 50 participants during a period of 1 month. Results showed an average weight loss of 7.1 lbs. over the 4 week period, with some weight loss results reaching as high as 15.4 lbs. per month.

SANKOM's revolutionary Swiss Diet Kit has already won several prestigious International awards in the health industry:

• Best Diet Product 2010 Gold Award received at the World's Largest Natural and Organic Products Exhibition in California, USA (March 2010)

• Top 40 Innovations 2010 awarded by the Ministry of Health of the United Emirates

The SANKOM Weight Management Program is based on the Intuitive Nutrition: How to Get Guaranteed Weight Loss Book authored by Dr. Mazourik. Dr. Mazourik is a medical doctor with 25 years of experience. He has more than 86 scientific works behind him and 100 patents in 33 countries in the field of medicine. As medical expert in the field of nutrition, Dr. Mazourik and a group of nutrition specialists have developed a unique, revolutionary weight loss product on a 100% natural basis; SANKOM Dietary fiber chews. 

This product helps you control the feeling of hunger and is easy to adapt to your daily lifestyle. Intuitive Nutrition is absolutely natural and safe for health and has the exceptional advantage that the healthy eating habits will remain with people for life.

Press Release: World’s First Intelligent Cycling Computer that Automatically Adjusts to Your Exercise Goals

World’s First Intelligent Cycling Computer that Automatically Adjusts to Your Exercise Goals

Featuring Fitness Plans “iSlim,” “Kid Fit,” “Brazilian Butt,” & More

Designed by Hunter Allen, the Foremost Power-Cycling Coach in the World

January 3, 2012 – Boca Raton, FL – Velocomp www.ibikesports.com, a leading sports technology company and creator of the iBike Dash CC Cycling Computer, introduced today iBike^® POWERHOUSE^TM, the world’s first intelligent cycling computer that automatically adjusts to your exercise goals.  Based on periodic assessments of your fitness improvements, the revolutionary iBike POWERHOUSE works with your iPhone and iPod touch to measure, guide and motivate you to achieve important health, appearance, and fitness goals. The POWERHOUSE method maximizes the benefit of each ride and shortens the time needed to achieve results.

To be introduced on January 10^th at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2012) in Las Vegas, NV, Booth #3430, iBike POWERHOUSE combines iBike’s patented power measurement and analysis technologies with automatically-adjusting, goal-oriented cycling plans -- all delivered through the incredible display and computing power of the iPhone/iPod touch. 

Choose Your Goal-Based Plan – iBike POWERHOUSE Guides You Step-by-Step

Working out with iBike POWERHOUSE is easy.  Select a goal-based plan, from “iSlim,” “Express Fitness,” “Brazilian Butt,” “Kid Fit,” “Weekend Warrior,” “Zero to 50 miles in 3 weeks,” and “Healthy Heart” -- just some of the plans available through in-app purchases.  Then, over a period of 4-6 weeks, iBike POWERHOUSE guides you through a series of 45-90 minute bike rides.  During each ride, you are directed to pedal at specific levels of effort (power), customized to the plan’s goals and your measured fitness level.  So, a “couch potato” will start out at a challenging but lower level of effort, whereas a fitter cyclist will start the same plan at a significantly higher level of effort.  

Fitness Plans Designed by Power-Cycling Coach Hunter Allen

iBike POWERHOUSE’s fitness plans are designed by Hunter Allen, the world’s foremost power-cycling coach.  Allen’s plans have been proven over nearly 20 years of coaching cyclists at all levels -- from beginner to world class.  And, in addition to the structured ride information for each plan, videos are included with tips from Allen for getting the most out of your cycling.  

iBike POWERHOUSE is a complete system, including:

·        A water/shock resistant case for the iPhone/iPod touch.

·        Patented electronics that perform all cycling measurements, including power.

·        An app that interacts with iBike’s electronics.

Exercise Equipment Reviews

No, I haven't given up on losing weight.  I just haven't been updating this blog very often (which I shall try to rectify from now on...)  In case you wondered, I have lost a bit of weight - but more than losing weight, I've shaped up.  Still a long, long way to go though...

To prove that I've been going to the gym (!), I present a couple of exercise equipment reviews that I've done recently:

Concept2 Indoor Rower
Bodyguard Fitness E300 Cross Trainer 

Week 8 Weigh-In

Oh dear... 2lb gained.  Probably just as well that I've decided to join the Health Club at work!

Week 7 Weigh-In

Lost 1lb this week, which makes is 1 stone exactly in 7 weeks.  Just need to keep that rate up for another half year and 2 weeks!

I did, according to Wii Fit, lost an astonishing 7lb in just 4 days - perplexed and disbelieving, but not being able to account for the disparity, I decide to ignore it for a while.  It was only by chance that I noticed one of my baby daughter's card books had managed to lodge itself under the Wii balance board and thus cause the wildly inaccurate reading!

6 Week Weigh-In

Another 2lb lost!  13lb lost in 6 weeks - not getting too cocky though, still 57lb to lose...

5-Week Weigh-In

Am very pleased with my new plan so far, I've lost 11lb in 5 weeks.  Just got to keep it going - much more left to lose!!
