my sister in law is going to spend 100 euros on eletric current weight loss with 20 sessions.. suppose to make you lose 3-4 inches where you want it... but I don't think it would really work.... which do you think will work faster in two months, 20 sessions of eletric currents, or two months of strict diet and exercise?

Electrocuting yourself should make you lose weight faster. Dead people always lose weight faster.

Seriously, though, the whole electroshock thing is a total scam. There's really no such thing as "targeted weight loss" unless you undergo surgery, which any physician will tell you is again not a substitute for regular exercise and a healthy diet. Forget "quick".. get-rich-quick and get-thin-quick schemes always fall through and the one who tries them winds up paying more than they ever dreamed.

You cannot target your inner thighs by themselves. When you lose fat, you lose it evenly throughout your entire body. Some parts of your body hold a higher amount of fat than others, so let's say you start losing fat. You may notice your arms becoming very defined, but your thighs still look 'fat'. If you kept losing fat, eventually your thighs will look defined, though your arms at that point will appear 'ripped' and VERY LEAN. Every BODY is different. The ONLY way to lose fat on the body is to do aerobic exercise 4-6 times a week, for at least 30-45 minutes, working up to 60 minutes, in your FAT BURNING target heart rate range, NOT in your aerobic range. You take your Maximum Heart Rate (220), subtract your age, and then multiply that result by 50-60% and THAT is the heart rate you want to maintain during your exercise for 30-60 minutes 4-6x per week. ALSO, you MUST eat 5-6 meals a day. They can be small, but keep them consistent, every 3 hours or so. This fools your body into thinking it ISN'T starving, so it can release the fat you currently are holding. Add some light resistance training 3x a week (weights) using 10-15 reps per set (2-3 sets per bodypart) and you will make great strides in losing bodyfat AND reshaping your body so it looks firm. You don't want to be skinny and loose, do you?

Diet and exercise. She is getting a quick fix. Diet and exercise will give long term benefits.

Here is what I would recommend.

Diet is extremely important. To slim your body you must:

Burn more calories than you eat.

Cut your fat intake.

Eat three cups of fat free low cal yogurt a day (make sure it has live cultures in it) and pineapples. This helps you break down your food.

Do 45-60 min. of aerobic exercise a day (preferably before you eat in the morning). This will attack the fat.

Do 30 min of weight training three times a week. This will build lean muscle which will in turn burn fat.

I lost 40 lbs in two months and have kept it off for two more months doing this. I also took my body fat % from 30% to 14% and lost 4 inches off my waist.

Be Blessed

well your sister was just scammed out of some considerable money.


why do folks do this to themselves?

what's wrong with a basic, well balanced diet? ???? eat one eats right... one doesn't need to lose weight!

tell her next time save her money for a car or a trip to some exotic land and while she's at it.. eat her veggies, fruit.. drink her water.. and exercise.. and put back that money for something REAL.

that's a SCAM... most diets are SCAMS.

strict diets are failures... you starve the body then when you stop the diet the body fights to keep the fats you eat and you'll gain weight back.. if not double.

well balanced diet..

here we have this.. www.mypryamid.gov it's not a scam or a gimmick it's just a lay out of what you need to keep healthy and the weight off.

diet and exercise.. first.. if you don't change the habit that made you (in this case your sister) overweight to start with, then it all comes back when you get off the "treatment". second.. electric currents build muscle in specific area (wherever the current is ran) and don't elevate your heart rate.. so it won't do anything to raise the metabolism and overall health. finally.. don't you think we get enough radiation in our bodies as it is? why add more.

think of it like this.. electric current weight loss is a band-aid to the problem, but diet and exercise is the cure.

I don't know too much about using electric current to lose weight. However, I do know that by using Stack Body Tune Up, I lost 32 pounds in 69 days.

If I can be of further assistance, let me know.

Keep this meal between 400 and 600 calories. Serve yourself a more compact portion, so if you like going back for seconds, you'll just end up eating a normal-size portion.
