Weight Loss Tips! (Part 1)

Here are some tips which help lots of our clients to lose weight and Keep it off!


  • First of all you have to be ready to let go of the old you and ready for a new vibrant glowing person that is ready to come out of you. Ask yourself - what is the reason I am holding onto this extra baggage, is it serving me in some way? 
  • Pick a day to start, whatever programme you are going to go on you need to give yourself a day where you can begin your new life. (we of course would recommend you go on one of our wonderful programmes, but this isn't the only reason we are writing this! Our programmes are available from www.reviresco.co.nz)
  • Make sure your pantry is ready for the changes you will have to make, no matter what products may say, if you don't make lifestyle changes you cannot have long term results. This of course doesn't mean you can't have treats along the way, but "Nothing Changes if nothing Changes!"
  • Minerals a vital for well-being and weight loss so invest in good quality ones- we prefer liquid minerals as they are easier for the body to absorb. However we also recommend Transdermal Magnesium. Magnesium deficiency is reaching epidemic proportions and it impacts our bodies ability to lose excess fat. We have one that is designed for use in weight loss amongst many others in our range. If you don't have enough Magnesium your body will not be able to produce enough digestive enzymes to absorb all you put into it. So even if you take internal supplements you may not be absorbing them. By putting it on the skin you will absorb it straight into the blood stream then it will go to where it is needed. 
  • Do something you enjoy everyday, this is important that you have this as life is meant to be enjoyed. Have Me time, even if it is only 15 minutes in a day you will appreciate every moment of it. Either read a good book, go for a walk, or just sit with your feet up and a nice cup of tea - we recommend "white tea" and we will tell you why next time!
That's it for today, We hope you enjoy these tips we will be posting regularly tips that clients ask us for so please ask us any of your weight loss or general questions and we will answer either in our next blogg or in a personal email if you would prefer that.

What a beautiful day here in the Bay of islands. As we have mentioned before we have moved back to our house in Paihia and the view from our house is stunning we get an overall view of the town and the sea across to Russell. Just standing on the deck drinking my coffee this morning made me want to sing, I am so lucky. Plus of course I am doing a profession that I love so I came to the clinic today with the deepest sense of gratitude.

This is a quick Snap I took whilst having my Coffee. We are going to be having the top part of our house as a holiday home (3 bedroom self contained we will let you know when it is up and running, maybe you might want to start a weight loss programme or just chill out, let us know if you are interested) 

On to the business of the day, today I thought I would mention about Essential fatty acids, which of course you can tell by the name that they are essential to our well-being, if you don't include them in your daily diet you cannot be healthy! I have been recommending clients to be using supplements of EFA's for the last 25 or so years in various guises, but never before have my Clients and I have had such good results with them as with Hemp Seed Oil. We have been using Hemp oil for over a year now and the Hemp Farm oil for nearly 8 months and this oil is fantastic. At the clinic we all use it to pour over our lunchtime salad as we love the taste. I have also used it in many recipes (don't cook with it as with any oil that contains EFA's it shouldn't be heated as it destroys the active ingredients) Some of My family's favourites include Mayonnaise, Pesto and Rocket salad (Pesto Recipe below). By including this wonderful oil in your diet you can help with many different symptoms including

  • Increased Energy
  • Reducing of Inflammation 
  • PMT Symptoms 
  • Menopausal Symptoms 
  • Arthritis 
  • Skin conditions 
  • High Blood Pressure 
  • High Cholesterol 
  • Hair and Nail Growth
We have the oil available on our website www.reviresco.co.nz or go to the link below and let them know where you got the info from please.
