Ok, time for a confession. I originally planned to go full force with dieting this month – meaning, no rice nor soda (of any kind) starting September 1. I guess you already know what happened 
. I did curb myself from drinking soda – but Im really having a hard time givin up rice – how can I not eat rice during dinner or lunch?! I know I need to plan my meals now, very strategically. I read in an article that a famous actor ate broiled chicken (without skin), boiled fish, oatmeal, fruits and no sweets nor salt for six months and he lost more than 70 pounds. Can I sacrifice six months of eating like that? LOL. I think I cant. There has been news about garden of life products though.
This product line has been founded by Jordan Rubin, with the desire to see people hear the life changing message of health and wellness. His own recovery from a digestive disease is testimony to the life changing effects of whole food nutrition. Their products Primal Defense, Omega Zyme, and Perfect Food are the number one selling probiotic, digestive enzyme, and green food products in the natural products industry. Their whole food supplements contain micro-nutrients, fats, proteins and fibers that our bodies need. It is a known fact that most dietary foods today are depleted of those nutrients because of processing.
It has always been recommended that we supplement our diet with whole food nutrients. The Garden Life product line also offers supplements for weight management. They are recommending the use of fucoTHIN, which actually helps metabolism of breaking down fat in white adipose tissue, meaning the true excess fat 
. The advantage of this, being an all-natural concentrate, is that it doesnt affect the CNS (sleeping or waking system) so you would not have trouble sleeping. The product is derived from Fucoxanthin. Fucoxanthin is a carotenoid (like lutein and lycopene), which is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from free-radical damage. It is the pigment that gives brown seaweed its characteristic color and also participates in photosynthesis (the conversion of light into energy). It is found in several different types of brown seaweed.
Now, what I am advocating here is not the product nor the line but the choice to go with all-natural supplements or products if you need help starting to lose weight. As a key, these are taken as supplements – meaning, they do not replace the healthier eating choices you will make or the exercise you still need to do.
As I keep reminding myself, this is all about a lifestyle change – not a month to month diet choice.
