Ranveig H Elvebakk, MD Review

The Food Tree book is not a diet or weight loss program. Its the basics of using nutrition and proper eating to get to a healthy BMI. No gimmicks, pills, potions, or special food combining techniques. The key is education in Dr. Elvebakk's book. This is also not a diet doctor guru either. Just a bariatric physician's approach to shedding fat cells by not feeding them. The objective is to learn how to feed muscle, starve fat, and adjust food choices so that a patient learns how to use protein effectively. Price wise The Food Tree is very competitive and actually a deal compared to the more expensive commercial weight loss centers.

Venus Bodywork Review

Venus Bodywork was amazing. I've always wanted to try a body wrap, but I'm a student and have seen how expensive these treatments are.  Venus was offering a superb deal, so a friend and I went to try it out.
The ladies here were unbelievably personable and informative. They told us how each treatment works and what to expect. They made sure were were getting the right treatment for the results we expected.
If you are shy about stripping down, they are very assuring and make sure you feel comfortable in every way. The rooms are very private with a calming atmosphere.
There are quite a few treatments to choose, and we chose the clay wrap.
The treatment was so soothing that I fell asleep, and so did my friend!
I would love to return in the future.
It may take more than one wrap (two?) to start seeing inch-loss results, but it felt good to get some toxins out of my body from this initial wrap.
