The Weight loss Network–Honest Diet Reviews, Weight Loss Tips and Food Journal

My New Year’s Resolution this year was NOT to make any resolutions!   Like many other people, the ubiquitous “Lose Weight” is always at the top of my resolution list.   Every year I swear that I’m going to work out and I’m going to watch what I eat and I’m going to accomplish all …

Snacking can be a killer for a diet! We’ve all heard the admonitions of “eat celery” or “have a handful of almonds” but let’s be honest here. Sometimes the thought of those just seems downright yukky! We want to eat something that feels normal. We get tired of dieting! So, when I tried the Bistro …

As promised, I purchased a week’s worth of food from the weight-loss food delivery service, Bistro MD so that I could review it.   The first thing that you do is fill out a questionnaire about your food preferences.  I was able to tell them that I hate fish and to rest assured that I …

As I read the headline “Twinkie Diet Helps Nutrition Professor Lose 27 pounds,” I snorted with disbelief.   Then the little devil sitting on my shoulder made me think “Hmmm…now here’s a diet that sounds like a lot of fun!”   But, seriously, junk food?  I have been researching healthy weight loss for so long that …

  I’ll spare you my recitation of Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s poem declaring my protein bar love, but I really do love Quest Bar!   When I initially found Quest Bar protein bars, I thought I’d found the Holy Grail of Protein.    The first two flavors, Peanut Butter Supreme and Vanilla Almond Crunch, were absolutely wonderful!  I work …

I have a love/hate relationship with the HCG diet.  It works if you follow it properly but it is really not healthy–nor is it easy!  This is the diary I kept while on it… Day 1:  Start: 159 pounds. Today was a “loading day.”  I was supposed to eat a lot of fatty foods.  Okay …

Did you know that there are 18 different directions that you can move your hips?  That is the first thing I learned when, at age 40, I decided to get crazy and take a belly dance class along with my friend, Jen.  But it wasn’t the most important thing I learned!   Belly dance class led …

I tested the Oatmeal Raisin “Dietary Supplement” (as the manufacturer termed it.) I’ll start with the positive. I have no doubt that you would lose weight on this diet….if you didn’t shoot yourself first! As I stare at it and contemplate it, this little square thing sort of resembles a cookie…sort of. When you take …

People have been asking a lot lately about Thin Quik diet pills.   I’m loathe to advocate diet pills, but judging from reviews I’ve read and the list of ingredients, they may be effective on some level.   However, I’m not sure how it can be legal since, to my understanding, ephedra has been banned in …

As so often happens, I heard a radio ad with one of my favorite announcers telling me he’d lost 18 pounds without even trying by using this fantastic product Th-121.  Woo hoo!   If Jim Braude says so, it must be good, right?   Wrong!  I believe Jim must have sold his soul to the devil. Th-121 …

The weight loss supplement known as Sensa or “the sprinkle diet” is fairly popular because of its claims to be easy to use–just sprinkle it on your food instead of taking pills.   You have a shaker for salty food and a shaker for sweet.  According to Sensa’s website, once you sprinkle the product on the …
