Losing Weight For The Summer
![]() |
A Personal Product Test.
Well, I’ve decided to challenge myself to losing at least 2 stones in weight by the end August this year.
To do this I have decided initially to make a purchase of three months of the new wonder diet pill Hoodia derived from the Hoodia Gordonii cacti. I’ve chosen to use the Pure Hoodia product promoted on this blog by PureHoodia.
The container shown contains 90 tablets and you simply take one about 30 minutes before your normal breakfast, lunch and evening meal times.
I intend to keep up my vitamin intake using supplements, and take at least one helping of bran fortified cereal every day with a little semi- skimmed milk. Otherwise I intend to be eating little.
In the way of exercise, I don’t intend to be doing much for the month of May as I am sceptical if this product is all it says it is, and I intend to test it, by keeping my exercise levels the same, eating less, and just taking the product to see what progress I make in losing weight.
Currently with jeans, a T shirt, and trainers I weighed in today at 4pm at 17.5 stones. I’ll be using the same weighing machine for consistency and reporting here at the end of each week on my progress.
I hoping that this product will do exactly what it says, and make me not want to eat. Well we’ll see. Watch this space.
Thursday May 8th Update:
It’s now about 12 hours since I started the course of Pure Hoodia tablets. Interestingly I haven’t felt hungry, so that part of the claim sees to be working. I haven’t felt satisfied either from a food perspective. I still feel the desire to drink, or for a coffee, but there is no desire to add a scone, or a bit or shortbread, or a snack of any kind.
Basically the feeling is that you’ve had a meal several hours ago, and the feeling of fullness has passed and at the moment you don’t desire anything further. I’ve taken my second pill. Overall perhaps I feel slightly tired, certainly I feel lazier than normal, but I think if someone offered me a bun, my reaction would be ‘no’, because the thought of one would be that I wouldn’t enjoy it.
If you were doing any activity that required your reactions to be on top form, then perhaps it would be wise to decide to eat a small balanced food bar or similar before that activity to counteract the slight feeling of lethargy.
Saturday May 10th Update:
After a couple of days, I’m pleased to report that the feelings of hunger have not reappeared. I find as meal times come due and I take another pill, there is still no desire to want to eat. For breakfast I’ve been choosing to take a Slim Fast drink, and between 6pm and 8pm, I’ve either taken some cereal, or a small salad. Afterwards I’ve felt satisfied with that small amount. I’ve skipped lunch altogether. When I’ve chosen to eat, the enjoyment has still been there, but I’m definitely eating smaller amounts.
I’ve felt no temptation to snack on buns, chocolates, or anything else during the day, and even to a degree my desire for cups of coffee have diminished, instead preferring mildly flavoured or just plain tap water. No temptation for sweets either, though I can’t say I have been a big sweet fan anyway. Sleeping has been normal, and everything so far is progressing well. (Haven’t made any attempt to weigh myself yet).
