Getting Started
This guide is an important key to your success while
on our weight-loss program. The information outlined
are examples of the type of meals that you need to
consume feel free to add, subtract, or substitute items
to satisfy your palate.
Before starting the program you must make sure that
your body has a proper pH balance, and your digestive
tract is primed and ready. To achieve this you need to
use one of the following:
1. Signature Skinny Alkaline Packs
2. Release
3. Salt Water Flush
4. Milk of Magnesia Cleanse
Do one of the cleanses listed above 3 days prior to
starting your Signature Skinny weight loss
supplement, on the fourth day take the recommended
daily dose of the capsule you purchased with at least 6
ounces of water. Be sure to consume breakfast within
30 minutes of taking your capsules.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
1- Be consistent: These are not magic pills, however,
they will work like magic if you follow use some of the
methods mentioned above.
2- Alternate capsules every two months. (see the 90
days to skinny program)
Boost your Metabolism
If you reach a plateau try one of the products, or methods listed below.
Take a Vtox multi-vitamin: This product consists of
every vitamin, mineral, as well as digestive
enzymes, fruit extract, omega 3-6-9, probiotics, and
fiber. All of these things help boost the body’s
metabolism so you lose weight faster.
Exercise: If you are not active then it is time to add
this to your weight loss regimen. Our Personal
Trainer Tonya C. Outlaw at Love to Dance Fitness
recommends that you are active for 3-4 days per
week no more than an hour. This will help you build
muscle so your body burns fat while you rest.
Eat at least 4 hours before you go to bed.
Do not skip any meals: Skipping meals causes the
body to store fat for energy instead of burning it so
you reach your goal faster. The average adult
should consume 1600 - 2000 calories per day.
Add lean protein and healthy fat to your diet:
Protein feeds your muscle so your body burns the
calories that you consume faster. Healthy fats like
nuts, avocado, ect activate the fat blocking
mechanism in the capsules. You will notice that you
have more energy, feel lighter, and lose weight fast
when you add these two items to your diet.
