Walk With Jennifer, Weight Loss Progress Report

October 18, 2013

Walk With Jennifer, AWAREmed, Dr. Dalal Akoury, weight loss, healthy lifestyle

Can you believe it?!

Jennifer has been working with the AWAREmed weight loss program for approximately 3 weeks and you can already see a big difference! Although obese patients want to see instant weight loss results, it’s a slow process, but, as you can see, even in a short period of time there is a visual difference.

Jennifer says:

“So far things are going very well, Im getting used to eating right, I haven’t had any cravings at all, I have been exercising everyday and I feel so much better. My blood pressure is almost at normal and I can breathe right for the first time in a very long time, it’s getting easier in some ways but I know I still have a long road ahead. I will not give up!

I am so determined to be successful with my weight loss and be 100 % as healthy as I can be! I think having to be accountable for my actions publicly makes me even more determined to not mess up! Showing myself on television was really hard, but the last show we did, I was much prouder of the way I looked on camera.

What I expect to gain from this is the knowledge of how to eat right and replace my bad habits with good habits, such as exercising everyday instead of sitting in front of the television eating whatever I want.”

Remember, not everyone will have the same weight loss results in the same amount of time.

The complete program with AWAREmed consists of meal changes and nutrition coaching with Patricia Coppola, specific supplements for the individual, and special IV therapy and injections, again, tailored to the individual. And along with this, and perhaps just as important to see results, is regular exercise. Jennifer has been walking as well as beginning twice a week workout sessions with a trainer.

Sessions with Jillian Maas Backman  help with setting new intentions, using a personal power statement to push through the times when it seems too hard, and motivation to take a deeper, more spiritual look inside and come to a new understanding of the self, before, during and after weight loss.

Even if you can’t do the complete weight loss program, you can still become a part of Walk With Jennifer by making the simple changes in diet and exercise. You can add the supplements, and you can add the IV therapy if you choose, but it’s not a requirement.

It’s your choice, choose to change!  Let’s help each other by spreading the word and this website!

If you still need to be visually motivated, check out this story about a young couple in St. Louis!

Women’s Doctor Prescribed Supplements – Awaremed Solutions for Everyone

March 19, 2013

Women’s Doctor Prescribed Supplements – Awaremed Solutions for Everyone

It is said that a normal grown up person cares about two internal factors throughout his life, namely health and wealth. Now, again sages have also keyed in the factor that the health is the real wealth, irrespective of all the monetary montage that you might have gathered down all your life through your activities and hard work. If you don’t have proper health, your accumulated wealth would not serve you one purpose. It is always wise to follow the old but absolutely true and famous saying that prevention is always better than cure. However the cure is required to be applied regularly and is applicable in the case of women too, not only cornering around men’s health. Women’s Doctor prescribed supplements are the types of medicines many people intake to regularly process their bodies and fill the voids in their bodies with lack of proteins, minerals, vitamins and other necessary elements which would enhance the metabolism of our body, and would make it stronger and sharper.

Now you might have come across those ads featuring regularly in the newspapers, televisions, websites and other media platforms, those which try to sell a product while describing its ridiculously fast and effective features, which in reality is a hoax to fool the people all round the globe. But there are few who fall for the tricks and end up using these products. These are never doctor prescribed or even not medically checked sometimes, therefore posing a huge scare of harmful side effects that can damage the normal metabolism of your body, and in turn of curing you, may damage you further. Also in the worst case, long-term effects may cause death too, if these are taken regularly for a long period, say 5 to 10 years at a stretch. So be careful always and use Women’s Doctor prescribed supplements always to account for staying safe from side effects that could well be dangerous and sometimes life threatening.

Women are also worried about their daily intake of proteins, vitamins, cereals, minerals, foliage etc. Their hectic routine along with the daily pressure of life and the work does not always allow them to condition their body as they would like it to be. Eating junk foods at office/ school/ college canteens and cafeterias are now a common thing. You eat them to save time, both in the office and at home (by not cooking Tiffin). The junk foods are generally constituted of fats and oily stuff that internally breed fatty layers and other harmful intoxicants. Also the germs that come along with it an adds a bonus to the probable stomach ache and the not so pretty paunch that might follow. This is a regular and a very common problem with the young women who have just started their jobs. Before joining their jobs at their offices, they might have had a lean, healthy figure. But the hard times at the office made them gobble up unhealthy foods and the paunch eventually shows up. Women’s health also suffers from regular non nourishment through stint as the housewives or other jobs. As a result, everyone starts aging soon as the signs show up on their faces. As a result, Dr. Akoury, a distinguished diplomat in the anti aging medicine field, has decided to bring in a product that would go on to change people’s lives forever. Thus she formed Awaremed health supplements, a balanced supplement pack that would not only claim actions, but would prove it with long lasting, balanced and youthful results for the customers, and most importantly, they are Women’s Doctor prescribed supplements. The healthy body would have the following physical components:

  • The endurance of the lungs and the heart to perform long time activities.
  • The proper proportion of muscle, water and fat leads to healthy figures.
  • Resistance training means more muscles, hence more endurance powers.
  • Flexibility of the body, i.e. its ability to move and perform fast actions.

There is a correlation between these components, and it is not always easy for the human body to maintain such intrinsic and internal conditions for most of the time being, along with the sound condition of the mind. It often falters, and results in the long time results of fast aging. The Women’s Doctor prescribed supplements of the Awaremed are found in two distinct categories, one for men and the other for women. For the women, there are basically 5 types of products:-

  • LibidoStim-M – they are essential libido supplements full of herbal and neutraceutical ingredients. They increase the sexual pleasure, along with the will and desire to do it.
  • DIM. Avail – DIM is a photochemical which is found in regular roughages and vegetables like radishes, mustards, cauliflowers, cabbages etc. Recent scientific discoveries and researches have shown it to be very useful in reducing the chances of oestrogens driven, cervical and breast cancers, by striking a perfect balance between the good estrogens and the bad estrogens.
  • Daily Twice Multi Vitamin – it is an additional nutrition supplement. It is also looked upon as a replacement for the vitamins. The OmegAvail synergy present in it helps to reduce inflammation, which could have led to other fatal consequences. Also, it helps to make women’s bones stronger and healthier.
  • Iodine Synergy – it supports the function of the thyroids. Also it maintains good breast health and an optimum level for healthy thyroid hormone production.
  • UT Energy – Maintains optimal urinary conditions for women, without tissue or skin irritation
