| Summary |
"Tighten Your Tummy in 2 Weeks is a revolutionary new program that triggers hormones to burn more fat and melt pounds and inches primarily from the belly. A woman's tummy has now replaced her thighs as the most-troublesome body part. Seventy-six percent of women surveyed in 2014 admitted that they were unhappy with their midsection. And a large tummy is a warning sign of significant potential health issues. QUESTION: How would you like to lose 14 inches from your waist and 14 pounds of body fat in only 14 days? The proof is in the pictures: 41 women at Gainesville Health & Fitness in Florida tested the Tighten Your Tummy in 2 Weeks program under the direction of fitness expert Ellington Darden, PhD, who documented success stories with remarkable before-and-after photographs. Readers can expect results similar to Dr. Darden's test panel. For example, in just 2 weeks:Roxanne Dybevick, 54, lost 15.08 pounds Angela Choate, 68, lost 14.8 pounds Katie Fellows Smith, 60, lost 14.51 pounds Denise Rodriguez, 34, lost 14.49 pounds Brianna Kramer, 23, lost 14.26 pounds. What causes such rapid loss of midsection flab? The answer is Dr. Darden's remarkable 5-step formula: 1. A special at-home resistance exercise technique called "15-15-15, plus 8 to 12" triggers fat cells to burn and release fat, effectively "spot-reducing" the belly. 2. A carbohydrate-rich eating plan of five or six small meals a day. Yes, "carbs are okay." A bagel for breakfast is on the daily meal plan. 3. Extra sleep at night and a nap during the day to turbo-charge the shrinking of pounds and inches. 4. A tummy-tightening trick called the inner-abs vacuum that's performed before every meal. 5. Sipping ice-cold water all day long, which synergizes the loss of fat and the strengthening of muscle. What Women Are Saying About the Tighten Your Tummy Program: "I've rediscovered my hour-glass figure." "My jeans fit again: they feel like an old friend. ""The Power Start Diet made me feel powerful. and I like that feeling.""I love the person I now see in the mirror.""-- Provided by publisher. |
