Sure Slim Diet

About

Sure Slim Diet claims to be a medically backed eating plan that corrects glucose metabolism by stimulating or suppressing the hormones that control body weight. This is not just a die tplan you follow by reading a book or following an online plan, you actually have to put some preparation work into this one. You need to have a blood test, intial and follow up consultations as well following a diet that is made specically for you.

The diet plan is split up into three main stages. First you have the preparation stage where all the information about you is gathered to find out what diet plan is best suited for you. Secondly you have you diet plan drawn up where you will be set out clear guidlines about what you need to follow to reach your target weight. The third phase is really about maintenance and lifestyle to ensure you keep the weight off for good.

The great aspect of this diet is that it not only takes into account your weightloss requirements, but also other medical issues you may have such as anaemia, thyroid problems or diabetes which really makes this diet specific to your body type and nutrional needs.

How Does The Diet Work

Sure Slim have a number of clinics where you would have to go for your initial tests as well as follow up consultations. You can book an appointment through their website, where they will then discuss costs with you which are not mentioned on the website itself. Once there you go through the 3 steps for your diet. Below is an extract from the Sure Slim website about what is involved in eachs step:

Step One – The SureSlim Blood Test
Your first step to Weight Loss is to have a comprehensive blood test, which looks at you as an individual; we create weight loss plans that are unique to your physiology. Using a fasting blood test, we test for full blood count, liver and kidney function, lipids (cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL and LDL), glucose, and thyroid function to ascertain exactly what weight loss plan is best for you! A copy of your blood results will be provided for your GP to ensure your medical notes are always up-to-date. The SureSlim doctor screens your blood test for abnormalities and the results of your test are used to design your personal weight loss programme.

Step 2 - Your Sure Slim Diet Plan
Once the blood test has been medically screened we formulate your individual SureSlim Eating Plan. Other factors such as your medical history, medication and food dislikes are taken into consideration. The SureSlim eating plan draws upon a number of different ideas about weight loss and nutrition. Low glycaemic index foods, low saturated fats foods, fruits, vegetables and seeds are all incorporated to compile a healthy nutritionally balanced eating plan. The plan does not count calories rather it looks at the nutritional content of the food.

Other elements of the programme: You will have a combination of weekly and fortnightly consultations* with a SureSlim consultant to provide you with the support and motivation you need. Your consultant will also provide you with information sheets which contains guidelines so you can socialise with your friends without worrying about putting on weight, as well as any amendments to your plan as required.

As part of your plan you will have access to the Online SureSlim Wellness & Lifestyle Forum full of hints, tips, recipes and motivational tools whilst linking you with members nationwide.

Step Three – Lifestyle

SureSlim is a healthy balanced eating plan that allows you to reach your target weight easily, healthily and safely. But our goal for you does not stop there. After reaching your goal weight, the Lifestyle stage of our programme is about maintaining the weight loss. It helps you identify trigger foods and adapt a healthier approach to eating. So not only can you lose your weight with SureSlim but you will be in control of your weight and maintain your weight loss for life!

Summary

From what they say there is no doubt that Sure Slim should provide you with a healthy, nutritional diet that is suited to both your weightloss and medical requirements, however, sue to the complexity of the diet this is likely to be more expensive than other diets.
