Weight Loss New Diet Product on the market... Sep 07 2008

I LOOKED IT UP AND THIS IS WHAT I FOUND.............  Undecided

Well guess what? There’s a new fad diet being advertised, maybe you’ve heard of it. It’s called “The Sprinkle Diet” (also known as Sensa) and the premise is that by sprinkling some granules on your food before you eat that you’ll eat less and lose weight.The sprinkles were developed by Dr. Hirsch who focuses his studies on taste and smell. The sprinkles are supposed to heighten the flavor of the food, making sweets sweeter and salty food saltier, tricking your brain into thinking you’re full.

Update 6/20/08: Another name for The Sprinkle Diet is Sensa and I now have the full ingredient list of The Sprinkle Diet/Sensa:

  1. Maltodextrin
  2. Tricalcium Phosphate
  3. Silica
  4. Natural and Artificial Flavors
  5. FD&C Yellow 5
  6. Carmine
  7. Contains Soy and Milk ingredients

This is exactly what I mentioned in reason #5 above, that I wouldn’t be surprised if the ingredients contained natural flavors/MSG: Natural flavors/natural flavoring is another name for MSG and maltodextrin very likely contains MSG.

You probably already know that MSG is a “flavor enhancer” however if you’d like to learn even more about it I suggest checking out both of those sites as well as Truth in Labeling.org (very interesting stuff!). You can also refer to my posts on natural flavor and MSG.

Original Post by jawsd:

On May 15, 2007 I weighed in at 337.6 pounds. This morning I weighed 190. The most important part of the loss was patience.

 Make small changes that you can stick to. Set attainable goals. Have patience. Think more about improving your health for the rest of your life, and, less about whether or not you lost any weight since yesterday.

 When you have a day where you eat too much, relax. The only way eating too much today can affect your achieving your goal is if you let it affect how you eat tomorrow.

 In 15 1/2 months I lost 150 pounds. Let your body and your mind help you.

May you all get the results you desire. I'm proof it can be done.   

Ooooooh My Gosh!  i looked at your Gallery Pic and you look AMAZING!!! Whooo Hooooo!!!  you are MY thinspiration!!!  i just started this month but i now plan on being VERY Patient thanks to YOU!!! Big Hugs!!!   SmileSmileSmile

Weight Loss ???How Many??? Aug 29 2008

Original Post by dalmalama:

yeah, i'm losing slowly. i started trying to lose weight 2 yrs ago, but i didn't really do anything to lose any wt at all last year, so i've been actively losing weight for a total of 12 months (long story). anyway, 85 lbs in 12 months is a little more than 1.5 lbs a week. sometimes i lose more than that, sometimes less. sometimes i lose nothing, for weeks on end. but that's when your patience has to kick in. since you're just starting, be patient. don't throw in the towel b/c the scale hasn't moved yet.

how many calories do YOU eat daily?  just so i feel better...  did you do it the way i am?  at between 1500 - 1700?  or did you do MORE at 1st???

 
Weight Loss ???How Many??? Aug 29 2008

Original Post by augette:

I'm 39, 5'8 and started at 277. My goal is to have between 1700-1900 a day (actually average more like 2100 a day!) and have lost about 30 lbs in just under  a year. I also started out very sedentary (sit at a computer at work and then would go home and sit in front of a tv or computer!). 

I usually just try to end the day with my eat meter being lower  than the burn meter on the My account home page.  Aim for 500 - 1000 lower and you should lose 1-2 lbs a week on average.  Don't stress if some weeks it goes up and others only down a little. The weight will come off but everybody is different and loses at different rates.

Another One!!!  now im gettin Happy!  Smile  Thank You!!!  im learning!  and i wont be so naive for too long...  i wont bother you guys too much and i will remember your names...  Thank You!!!

Original Post by dalmalama:

i started at 320 pounds, and now i'm at 235 pounds, so you CAN do this! 1500-1700 calories will help you lose that weight. if you're sedentary and only move about when you go for your walk, those amounts of calories will definitely help you lose weight. just know that it will take a long time, but don't give up! everybody on CC is here to cheer you on!

Smile  thanks for the good word!  i have been waiting all day for someone who weighed about the same or more than me when they started so i can see that it WILL work for ME!  DID YOU LOSE SLOWLY?  because ive been Counting Calories for a few weeks now and i dont see any difference at all...  i lost those 5lbs BEFORE i started counting calories...  what will give me that Jump Start?  i know this is NOT a miracle cure for me or anything...  i just want to see my scale move!  even 1lb...  a 1/2lb... something... you know?
