Well, partly… ;)
We all want to look our best and be bikini-body-ready at a moment's notice. But is that realistic? Is that what we really want? Maybe we think that is what we want because society has drilled into us from an early age that being “slim and trim” is necessary. Everywhere we turn, we come face-to-face with the image of “that girl” and “the perfect body”, which usually represents everything that we are not, leaving us with a distorted image of ourselves that we can’t accept and searching for solutions outside of ourselves that will make us feel like we fit in and belong.
Crazy thought, but maybe all we really want is to be comfortable in our own skin. If this is the case, then why are we being encouraged to strive to look “our best” for others (“our best” being a version of skinny that does not exist) when we should be striving to feel our best for ourselves? To BE our best? Shouldn’t our best be enough?
At BSKINNI, we believe how you feel matters most, inside and out. And when it comes to feeling and being your best, we’ve got your back sis!
THE TRUTH ABOUT WEIGHT
Body image and weight loss (and the societal pressures that come with it) are difficult to navigate alone. Although there is no substitute for proper diet and exercise, we believe in the power of products that promote a well-balanced lifestyle and support overall health and well-being. So, to be functioning at your best, the focus should not be on losing weight but on managing weight and developing a strong support system from the inside out.
What is the goal of this weight management support system? Learning how to maintain a healthy weight over time in a sustainable way complements your unique lifestyle. Easier said than done, right? Impossible though? Nope!
Yes, achieving and maintaining a healthy weight requires a little work, dedication, commitment and a mindset and priority shift. Still, we are here to help you bridge that gap effortlessly! We want to help you redefine what skinny means to you. We want you to BE YOU, girl! We want you to B.SKINNI, but in the best way possible and on your terms!
THE SCIENCE
If losing weight was easy, everybody would be doing it. Well, many people are, but they are struggling to keep it off. The harsh reality is that losing weight and maintaining it is hard because of how the body naturally responds to weight loss.
The second you lose weight, a huge tug-of-war starts happening in your body. On the one side, we have the normal activities and diet you have been doing to lose weight in the first place (i.e., reduced calorie intake and increased activity). On the other side, we have the body’s natural reactions to this loss which include a decrease in metabolism, an increase in hunger hormones and a decrease in fullness hormones. Put simply, instead of continuing with this positive weight loss progress; the body tries its hardest to encourage you to put back on the weight!
You are probably thinking, what the heck? Why is my body so against me?!
The bad news: Think of the extra fat stored in your body as your emergency fund for a rainy day. The second you lose that extra fat, your brain presses the emergency button, and all hell breaks loose. Your nervous system (which includes your brain) starts receiving distress signals from hormones in different parts of your body, like the stomach, intestines, and fatty tissues, indicating that something is wrong. This leads to the brain and appetite hormones telling you that the tank is empty and that you are ravenous and should eat more because the fat reserves are all used up. Over time, these strong, relentless urges from your own body start to wear you down mentally, and eventually, you are most likely to give in to those impulses. So, while eating healthy and increased physical activity are important for weight loss, more is needed for many people to keep the weight off.
The good news is: You're body is not against you. It is trying to protect you and keep you safe! At BSKINNI, we know that everybody is different, so we have developed a holistic supplement that supports your unique weight loss goals in a realistic, healthy and balanced way. We can help you lose those pesky extra kilos and keep them off for the long term!
Sounds too good to be true? You be the judge.
THE SKINNI SOLUTION
B.SKINNI is formulated to support your body’s natural ability to lose weight and keep it off through a multi-phase weight loss-enhancing approach. What does this mean exactly? Well, to support sustainable results, our experts have created a unique blend of ingredients jam-packed into one powerful capsule that helps to:
Stage 1 - Suppress appetite: The first stage is to curb appetite and stop the urge to put unwanted and excess calories into your body. The combination of ingredients such as yerba mate, coffee, and green tea extract are rich in caffeine and compounds like EGCG that have been shown to influence appetite hormones and help to reduce cravings and hunger pangs, which work in your favour of supporting and maintaining a reduction in food and calorie intake. Shoo! That is a mouthful but a good one. ;)
Stage 2 - Stabilise insulin levels (blood sugar levels): The next step is to assist the body in maintaining healthy blood sugar levels while at the same time preventing the storage of fat from the foods that you do eat. Ingredients such as coffee and chromium polynicotinate help with just that. For example, our choice of the coffee bean contains natural antioxidants known as chlorogenic acids that are believed to reduce the amount of glucose, aka sugar, you absorb after a meal. At the same time, the essential trace mineral of chromium in chromium polynicotinate contributes to the maintenance of normal blood sugar levels.
Stage 3 - Increase metabolism and natural fat-burning processes: Once blood sugar levels are stabilised and fatty acids are freed up, the next step is encouraging the body to burn and metabolise that excess fat. Combining ingredients such as green tea extract, citrus aurantium (bitter orange), chromium polynicotinate, yerba mate, and coleus forskohlii helps increase the activity of fat-burning hormones like norepinephrine, which contribute to the freeing up and metabolism of fatty acids. Proper metabolism of these fatty acids helps contribute to a reduction in body fat and an increase in lean muscle mass. In simpler terms, the unique combination of ingredients in this capsule can help increase your resting metabolic rate, which aids in freeing up fat and enhancing fat-burning processes.
Stage 4 - Improve digestion and reduce water retention: As these excess calories and fatty acids are metabolised by the body, the next phase is proper digestion and absorption of essential macronutrients that are needed for maintaining healthy body weight, as well as the elimination of excess fats, waste and toxins from the body. The combination of ingredients such as green tea extract and bitter orange (Citrus Aurantium) acts as a natural diuretic helping to improve digestion and flush out excess fluid and unwanted toxins from the body.
Stage 5 - Enhance mood, increase energy levels and maintain healthy body weight: The above benefits of stabilising blood sugar levels, increasing metabolism and improving digestion mean that your body will be much better at converting fat to energy. In addition, ingredients such as vitamin B6, in particular, are fundamental in helping you achieve a normal, energy-yielding metabolism, reducing tiredness and fatigue and contributing to normal muscle and nervous system functioning. What does this all mean? It means you are left feeling more energised and motivated to keep moving forward on your weight loss journey with a body that is functioning on all cylinders!
