Many of us would like to be more active. The best way to begin an exercise program is to start off slowly, and find sports and activities they really enjoy.
Here are some tips from some of our clients:
Start walking 15 - 20 mins each day - start off at a stroll,build up speed daily and lengthen the time of your walks. Keep your walks interesting: walk with a buddy, such as your partner, children, neighbour, coworker, friend, or dog. Try to walk in interesting places, and explore your area. Try the beach, local parks, or even around the shopping centre. Invest in some good quality shoes, and have them fitted professionally. Indulge yourself - wear headphones and listen to music that makes you feel energized.
Go Dancing - Dancing is a great way to introduce exercise, and is great fun! Dance at home, in a local club, or even join a dancing class or group. Try Zumba, a combination of dance and exercise. Get a friend to go with you, and share a laugh while you're active.
Water Workouts - Exercising in water is a very good way to introduce gentle exercise if you are recovering from an injury, or are unable to bear weight for long periods of time. Take yourself down to the local pool and paddle around.

Overweight children are a disturbing trend, causing physical and psychological problems. Higher incidences of adult type diabeteswith all its complications are being found increasingly in children of a younger age. Set a good example for the next generation with healthy eating habits and regular exercise.
Yes, people with severe kidney problems. SureSlim screens your blood tests for kidney disease. Some clients have "borderline" kidney disease, so the Eating Plan is modified to lose the weight a little more slowly, to be safe. Blood tests are repeated at intervals to monitor health and progress.
Clients are screened for severe heart disorders, as the plan's usual high fluid intakes must be modified, and SureSlim recommends that your physician supervisesyourEating Plan and progress. Excess weight can cause strain to the heart, so weight loss benefits clients with heart disorders immensely.
Type 1 diabetics can not be on the quickloss program.

To calculate your weight loss goals, we provide various tools to help you. The BMI (Body Mass Index) Chart is a guide, as well as the Body Fat Analyzer.Many factors are taken into consideration when working out your ideal weight. Your age, build and muscle tone can raise or lower this target.
No one can dictate what ideal weight you should be. Your weight loss goal is your personal decision. If you need help, ask your consultant when setting your weight loss goals.
Definitely. You may be unaware that you have a pre-existing medical condition, therefore following someone else's program could seriously affect your health. If you had to use someone else's SureSlim Eating Plan, you would not get the weight loss results as quickly as the person for whom the program was developed for, and you would not be able to reach your goal weight.
You blood tests provide an evaluation of your metabolism so that we can prepare the correct eating plan for you. The blood tests also determine the presence of conditions such as diabetes, high cholesterol, gout etc. which can be affected by certain foods.
