Issues covered

We strive to present you with all options for fat loss that are proven to work. 
TheSlimSchool not only enumerates the available options, but also rates them based on their overall contribution to fat loss versus their feasibility.

As an example, some diets advise drinking cold water so that your body uses energy to heat it to reach body temperature. Yet the extra energy burnt amount to very little - even if you manage to drink 1.5 litres / 6 cups of water at 0˚C / 32˚F, the supplementary daily expenditure will only be 35 kcal/ 150 kJ.
At TheSlimSchool, you will find less time consuming and more pleasurable ways of expending 35 kcal/ 150 kJ!

Let us see some questions that will be covered:

  • Where does abdominal (visceral) fat come from and is it humanly feasible to get rid of it?
  • Do the different kinds of sugar – glucose, sucrose, fructose, lactose etc.- carry a different risk for weight gain?
  • Are there some desserts which are healthier than others?
  • Is it possible to reduce sugar cravings?
  • Does the use of artificial sweeteners facilitate weight loss?
  • How can ‘dangerous’ situations – going to a party, spending a weekend alone at home, having a big Sunday lunch, eating with the kids – be best handled? How can I say, “No” to my friend, to Auntie Jenny or to my husband when they are pushing me to get a second helping of their homemade pie?
  • Are there any so-called ‘low hanging fruits’ – measures that can be implemented with very little effort but creating a noticeable calorie gap?
  • How little exercise can I get away with to achieve fat loss?
  • Is aerobic exercise better for fat loss and weight maintenance than weight bearing exercise? Is it better to exercise in the morning or in the evening?
  • Is it better to exercise for 30 minutes in one go, or 3 times ten minutes? Is 5 minutes’ intense exercise better than a 30 minute walk? 
  • What about hypobaric training such as Hypoxi or vibration training such as PowerPlate?
  • How can I improve my willpower?
  • Can I change my taste preferences?
  • Are there smells or visual cues that can reduce appetite?
  • Why does it seem more difficult to lose weight as we get older?
  • Is it true that certain proteins are better for dieting than others?
  • On one hand, we hear that coffee is good for fat loss, is it true?
  • Does the ‘grapefruit diet’ work?
  • What is the best thing I can drink apart from water?
  • Are there any vitamins or diet supplements that have a real effect on diet? How big is this effect? 
  • How can feelings of deprivation during dieting be best dealt with?
