QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

NO. Each purchase of RWL is final and the monies paid for the RWL product are not refundable.

The slimming diet is always 45 days and is always followed by a Stabilizing diet which lasts 28 days.

Even if you achieve your desired weight before the end of your session (for example after 20 days), you will still need to continue to use the RWL Shaping Cream until the end of the 45 days of the slimming diet period. If you do not complete the 45 days diet and you stop the diet as soon as you achieve your desired body weight, it will later be much easier for you to regain your weight.

The vast majority of people do feel hunger during the first 3 days of the diet. This is mostly because in this period, the fat burning mechanism is not fully activated. Emotional responses, stress or panic may also create a feeling of hunger.

Most of the clients lose between 300 and 400 grams of body weight per day. The maximum weight loss is up to 500 grams per day, although some may experience wright loss of up to 1 kg on a given day. Assuming that you do follow all instructions given to you, the daily weight loss is likely to be consistent throughout the entire duration of the Slimming diet.

If during the course of your program your weight loss reaches 15 kg, you will be immediately put on a special diet where you will receive between 800 and 1200 calories a day. During this period, you will continue to apply the RWL Shaping Cream until the end of your 45 days slimming diet period.

Please follow the RWL diet rigorously and without any improvisations because it not only provides you with sufficient energy but the necessary nutrition that the body requires to function normally. Any changes of the RWL diet will result in unsatisfactory results.

On the other hand, if the diet is increased from 600 to above 700 calories per day or above, the loss of weight is quite unsatisfactory. Higher calories intake can create weight gains.

You are able to monitor your weight loss and body weight on daily basis. In addition, urine stripes are provided for monitoring of the ketone level in the blood which indicates how much fat was burned on the previous day. If you are burning fat, your ketone level will be either 4 or 8.

A typical scenario is to start burning fat immediately after you start with your slimming diet. The weight loss is pretty rapid and you could measure it daily. At times, you will notice that the weight is not coming down and this could persist for a number of days. Please do not worry! What typically happens is that you have started burning a stubborn fat that is hard to burn. In these cases, the weight may remain constant for 2 or 3 days or drop slightly (around 0.1 kg per day). You will notice that these inches are becoming smaller and you are shaping. Be patient, once the stubborn fats are burned down, weight continues to drop.

The rapid weight loss will stops to work on its own if there are no more extra fats to burn. If this happens in the middle of your 45 day session, you need to continue to apply the RWL Shaping cream until the end of the 45 days Slimming diet period.

Let’s consider a case where a client need to lose 4 kg of weight. Let us assume an average weight loss of 400 calories a day, and that the Client loses the 4 kg of weight after 12 days of the RWL diet. The following applies:

• You must continue to apply the RWL cream for the duration of the 45 days.
• Immediately after you have lost the desired 4kg, you need to alter your diet to approximately 800 to 1200 calories a day and remain on this diet until the completion of the 45 days of slimming diet.
• Upon completion of the slimming diet, you need to continue with the stabilizing diet for another 4 weeks.
• After the completion of the stabilizing diet, you are free to eat what you like within limits, assuming you are healthy and you have no food allergies. Do note that you need to continue to monitor your food intake, eating more than what your needs will bring the extra weight back.

After you complete your 45 days diet, you will need to continue to follow the Slimming diet for the next 3 days. This is because it takes 3 days for the RWL Shaping cream to lose its effect, and for as long as the cream remains active in your body, consuming even a little bit more calories per day than the recommended amount may cause you to gain fat easily. This applies only if you have not already lost all excessive fat in your body.

Yes you can. The minimum gaps between each cycle is 4 weeks.

There are certain people who CANNOT take the RWL Program mostly due to pre-existing health problems. Those who cannot go on a RWL program include those with:

• A past history of certain cancers (uterine, ovarian cancer or a molar pregnancy)
• Persons with kidney or liver failure
• Pregnant women or breast feeding women.
• Special considerations apply to Type 1 diabetics.

The vast majority of people will NOT feel hungry. The slimming diet is very strict, however you should not feel hungry because your hypothalamus will be releasing enough energy from your fat storage to compensate your energy needs.

It is common to have an evacuation of the bowel once every two to three days, especially if you do not drink enough water. BUT, if you have no bowel movements for two or three days and you stop losing weight, you must get the bowels moving again. Supplements that containing psyllium husk (without sugar, gluten or carbs), will help move the bowels.

You could try peppermint tea, Senna tea, or Colon Cleanse capsules, as a laxative. When increasing fiber, you MUST increase your water intake. If your stools are so dry as to be uncomfortable during evacuation, please inform your Counsellor for advice.

The fear of becoming vitamin and mineral deficient can be confidently relieved in the knowledge that every day a pound or near to ½ a kilo of fatty tissue is lost; but only the actual fat is burned up, not muscle. Furthermore you may take some supplements to prevent deficiencies.

• Aspirin and birth control pills are allowed.
• Keep using any blood pressure or cholesterol tablets you are on.
• Steroids can have an adverse effect on the RWL program.
• Typically, hormone replacement therapy medication is suspended during the RWL Program.

Please consult us before making a change in any medication.

Yes, you can continue with the slimming diet during your menstrual period. If during this time you stall in weight loss or even have slight gains, it is probably due to water retention, assuming you are strictly following instructions. Simply keep going – do NOT give up for a couple of days or cheat, which could actually cause a real gain in weight. The water weight will fall off and you will continue on your way.

Some side effects that are most common are headaches, leg cramps and slight muscle aches. You may feel slightly weak and light headed at times, but most of these symptoms go away after your first week on the slimming diet. You may get these symptoms because going on such a low calorie diet is a form of detoxing. As you release and burn fat you are also releasing and breaking down fat-soluble chemicals and toxins stored in your fat adipocytes.

All the side effects can be easily treated. Magnesium capsules will reduce headaches and cramps, drinking plenty of water and getting plenty of rest will assist with the detox processes. Most of the uncomfortable side effects usually are a result of your body detoxifying or are symptoms of withdrawals from sugar, and processed foods.

If you feel weak or uncomfortable, immediately contact your Counsellor. The Counsellor will advise you and help you recover from the current condition.

During the RWL diet, you many experience a wave of different emotions every day, in particular in the first ten days of the diet. The real trick here is to recognize why you are feeling the way you are feeling, then try to regulate it. We know, easier said than done, but hopefully the tips below will help.

• Get More Sleep: Even when you’re not dieting, lack of sleep can cause you to be overly emotional. So be sure to get enough sleep.
• Relieve stress and anxiety: Meditation, light walk or exercise, spending time with family, laughter and use of essential oils (such as lavender) may help you reduce your feeling of stress.
• Apples: Hunger can play a big role in your emotional state. Eating apples will keep you feeling full.
• Decision Making: Remember, when you do start feeling over emotional or stressed out, it can be largely attributed to the RWL and the low calories diet. Remind yourself that it’s the diet that is making you feel this way.

With this in mind, it’s probably not a good idea to make any sort of drastic life decisions that might normally have emotions involved in your decision making.

Be successful and determined religiously and soon your emotions will get in tack. Consult with your Counsellor on these matters if you need to. If you become too emotional, the Counsellor is likely to stop your slimming diet temporarily until you recover and are able to resume your program.
