“PGX® – I can’t live without it!”

I have been using PGX for the past two years and I can’t live without it!! It really does what it says. My cravings come back like crazy when I go off of it. While I am on it, cravings are gone, and when I do eat any chocolate, it doesn’t taste good at all?! Thanks for the wonderful products!

Yours truly,

DL - North Battleford, Saskatchewan

Get ready for your BIG day with PGX!

You've got enough to think about without having wedding gown zip-up anxiety when planning a wedding! 

This past weekend I attended the wedding of a childhood friend; today is the wedding annversary of my grandparents; a few weeks ago I went dress shopping with one of my best friends... There is a lot of wedding related activity happening for me this month! I realize that summer is the most popular season for weddings and now is the time to start preparing!

With so many things to think about (cake, food, music, flowers, favours, venue, invitations and guest list, etc., etc., etc.!), why not cross of the wedding dress from that list?! Once you've found the dress, that's one check mark on the list, but it may also come with weight anxieties. For the next few stressful months, it's not unusual for brides to worry about their dresses fitting by the time their weddings come 'round. That's where PGX can help!

Curb those cravings and keep your waste trim with more fibre and PGX in your daily diet! Be sure to keep up with us here on our blog or on our Facebook and Twitter pages for the latest news, deals, health tips and recipes! I've never had to plan a wedding but I can imagine I would love not worrying about my dress fitting by the last visit to the bridal salon! PGX can help keep that crazy blood sugar roller coaster level, which will keep those cravings in check!

Good luck and don't stress! Just add fibre to your daily routine...

Train Like an Angel!

It's not all fluff and poses for the Victoria's Secret models. They work to be runway ready!

Whether you are interested in fashion or not, you have undoubtedly seen many many times, images and ads of terrifyingly thin models and photoshopped movie stars floating around. Almost everywhere we look now, there they are: skinny girls and doctored photographs setting an impossibly high and unhealthy standard for body image.

Here's a different image of a model:

It is refreshing to see a company and it's models promote a healthier lifestyle and share their workouts. Yes, these women still seem incredibly small but at least we know they actually work for their figures. Aside from the videos they share, here's another tid bit to consider: many of the wings they wear on the runway are actually quite heavy! These models have put up to 50 pounds of extra weight on their backs while still keeping their walk tall and stilettos firmly on the ground!

In preparation for this year's show, they've started sharing new videos and tips from celebrity trainer, Justin Gelband, to help viewers and fans "Train Like an Angel!"

Don't get jealous; get fit! Until tomorrow PGX'ers...

Another post from Richard Martinez on how he's making time for Movement with the help of a Plan, Music & PGX!

From the man that brought you Movement, Music & PGX, comes some easy tips on how to motivate yourself to maintain your weight loss goals!

Now that school is back in session we all have a lot less time on our hands. We have to think about things like packing lunches and backpacks, ensuring that homework is done and getting the kids to school on time. Throw on top of that guitar lessons, soccer, baseball training and, before you know it, you're left with little time for yourself and your workouts.

As a result, it's easy to forget about your workout routine and rely on takeout for nutrition. But I'm here to tell you: don’t do this. Stop yourself right now! It will only result in you losing ground in your weight loss journey.  

Fortunately for me, PGX continues to be a part of my diet. I take it right before every meal and I have not felt the need to have seconds of anything. However, over the past few weeks, I've been overwhelmed with work and have been finding it incredibly difficult to get back into my workout routine. But I promised myself that I would not falter. I kept reminding myself about all that progress that I've made and I remembered how great it felt to lose 50 pounds. (And, by the way, I haven’t gained any of it back!)

Time is precious and I’d rather spend any extra time I have with my sons. So, as is required of parents sometimes, I quickly devised a plan. I scheduled a 30 minute bike ride into my calendar on my iPhone and, by increasing the tension on my stationary bike, I worked out my muscles and still burned fat as the same rate as when I was doing about an hour on the bike before. And guess what? Keeping a shedule, is working.

With that said, you can’t forget about the music! I never do. So, in this series I’ll tell you that I’ve been really into what label owner, Veronika Vasika, is doing with her archive label, Minimal Wave. My interest was sparked when I recently had a chance to see her at New Forms Festival 12. Since then, I’ve been listening to her compilations Minimal Wave Tapes 1 and Minimal Wave Tapes 2 and each compilation is filled with great beats and pulsing rhythms to get your heart moving and give some extra push during your workout!

Last weekend of summer!

Time to celebrate the last days of soaking up some rays with friends and family. Here are some quick tips to help you make the most of your weekend without feeling that unhealthy sluggishness on Tuesday morning.

Stay Active!

Spend some time getting active if you plan to indulge a little. Bring a friend so you can get caught up while burning some calories.

• Get outdoors.
• Go swimming.
• Walk the dog.
• Ride your bike.

Add Some Veggies:

Forget the high calorie chips and dip, instead load up on healthy veggies. Going to a barbeque this weekend? Take some PGX before you go and bring along a bag of healthy snacks!

Stay Hydrated:

Don’t forget to drink plenty of water especially if you’re outdoors and in the sun. When you’re not drinking enough water, you can mistake thirst for hunger. A good check before reaching for a snack is to gauge how much water you’ve had that day. On a hot day, drink a bit more than usual.
