I’ve been wanting to lose about 30 pounds now for the past year (ha!) so I decided to actually start trying, and stop eating donughts (goodbye, Krispy Kreme!) and other junk food. Then I started thinking about it, and realized that if I have to cut out food I love, I’ll never stick to my diet. I started wondering…is it better to get a weight loss book or video, or take weight loss supplements?

I started doing some research on some popular supplements – I only wanted to take something that’s going to work – not a fad, like Hoodia. When I researched Akavar, I liked the fact that they have done scientific studies on people taking the supplement and losing weight. They also have a guarantee on their product. I feel like it’s not as big of a risk if I know I can get my money back. Plus, there are some really good reviews about the product, and they have a lot of information available for me to read.

I started looking into weight loss books as well, and realized that if I do a combination of weight loss programs and take supplements, I’ll probably have the best results. This way, I can still eat my beloved Krispy Kremes as well. I’ll post updates about my weight loss results. In the meantime, I’m excited to start taking Akavar and working out, and watching the weight drop off!
