Pat here , here is some new information for your weightloss goals. By clicking on any coloured text in this article will bring you to some studies that are very interesting.For most of us losing weight is just so hard!
Dieting can be complicated. Just think, how many times after eating a meal have we said "I am stuffed. I can't eat another bite." And then we dig into dessert? Sometimes just filling our stomach doesn't stop the "hunger" if that hunger is coming from the brain or from our emotions.
This study researched the connection between food cravings in a calorie restricted diet. It recommends we understand that cravings are to be expected and that substitutes for high calorie cravings will help in weight management. Another study focused on the importance of chewing to lower blood levels of ghrelin, a hunger stimulating hormone, and chewing to stimulate higher levels of CCK (cholecystokinin) a peptide hormone in our bodies that reduces our appetite.
The very exciting discoveries behind patent-pending Attain Bars and Shakes. Scientists discovered an enzyme called P12 that is found just below the skin of white potatoes. This enzyme promotes the release of CCK, a hormone that turns off hunger cravings and helps us feel satisfied. Although we may regularly eat potatoes, we do not benefit from this potato enzyme because it is killed by cooking.
Melaleuca's scientists found a way to use the concentrated P12 enzyme of 3 raw potatoes in every single serving of Attain Bars and Shakes. Only Attain has patent-pending CraveBlocker that helps your stomach and brain feel satisfied. Attain also delivers stomach-filling satisfaction by providing fibers derived from oats, barley, chicory, and Jerusalem artichokes.
Please note that Attain Shakes are gluten-free.
Using Attain Shakes and Bars as delicious substitutions for more fattening choices can help you feel satisfied with fewer calories. And fewer calories mean weight-loss.
ATTAIN SUCCESS STORIES
I've used Attain Bars for over 4 1/2 years. My favorite is the Chocolate Carmel Nut. I'm a chocoholic. I used to buy regular chocolate bars but didn't really enjoy eating them as they were so full of sugar, and they certainly didn't help my weight whatsoever! I incorporated the Attain Bars as part of my eating regimen. I cut them into 4 lengths and divide them into my afternoon snack and my evening snack. They really work. My cravings for chocolate are under control, my weight is staying down, and I'm satisfied mentally and physically with Attain Chocolate Carmel Nut bars. I recommend everyone try them, they're delicious, and as with all Melaleuca products they do what they say they're going to do.

In
January of 2010 I headed back to the gym after a hiatus! I had what I
called the "Mom Twenty" (extra weight that seems to just creep on after
you have kids!) times two! I had already added the Access Bars and
Shakes to my workouts but needed a little something when I got hungry
midmorning to late evening. I read all the information about Attain on
the Melaleuca site and what made it work. It made sense to me, so I
added a box of the Attain Sweet and Salty bars along with the Attain
vanilla shake to my next order. I couldn't believe how delicious the
bars were. I add a banana and almond milk with the shake and blend it up
for a quick meal on the go for my commute to work. I have lost 45 lbs
total, and gone from a size 16 to a size 8. Love, Love, Love Melaleuca!
They figure out the science to make these products work and taste great,
and we reap all the benefits!

Theres no doubt about it when i tried the attain shakes and bars i wasnt hungry as i have a big appetite and my trousers loosened up, i also tried the access bars and same thing, but the attain bars boy do they are great snack when you are dying for a munch, the shakes are great for putting in the blender and adding some fruit, they work !!! I use the access bars before the gym and the proflex protein after it, all the products are yummy and hey they are affordable too, some proteins you buy here in Ireland cost a right few quid, as a Melaleuca customer you get great bargains, all their stuff is great and great savings and love the reward money i get to use to buy more products, better than what i get back from tescos, only get that every 3 months lol mela is the best !

I
have been a Melaleuca customer for 18 years and one of my favorite
products is Attain Vanilla Shake. When Attain was first introduced I was
still working, and I started using Attain for breakfast and for lunch
with fruits and vegetables. It kept me satisfied all day. Now in
retirement I continue to start my day with Attain Vanilla Shake, and
with the CraveBlocker ingredients I find myself eating my main meal in
mid-afternoon having had no hunger during the most active part of my
day. I have continued this routine for many years. Attain also helps me
maintain my healthy weight. My husband enjoys Attain Shake during the
evening as a snack. We love Attain!

How
I lost 5 lbs without even trying: I always seem to get hungry in the
afternoon between 3 and 4 pm. I always seem to reach for something
unhealthy and quick: chips, Pop-tarts, cookies etc. Before I knew it, my
weight had crept up almost 10 lbs. "Ok" I thought "I need to stop this
bad habit." So
I decided to try the Attain Bars and Vanilla Shake (both super yummy).
So every afternoon when the hunger pangs hit I would either eat the
Attain Sweet and Salty Nut bar or have the Vanilla Attain Shake. I
changed nothing else about my eating habits, just replaced that
afternoon snack choice with a healthier one. In 3 weeks I lost 5lbs
without even trying! Now to tackle the next 5lbs; will it be as easy? I
am hoping so!!

I
absolutely love the Attain Bars! I have been a happy customer since
April of this year. When I found out Melaleuca had a chocolate bar with a
crave blocker I had to try it, and it really does work. Now when I get a
craving for something sweet, or just need a mid afternoon snack, I
reach for my Attain Bar. They taste great and they really fill me up,
and I don't feel guilty like I did before when I would find myself
reaching for a high calorie snack. I feel full and have noticed that I'm
not as hungry at dinner time, so I eat less and have started losing
weight! Thank you Melaleuca for Attain Bars; it's the perfect healthy
snack when you crave chocolate and sweets like I do!

Attain™ Chocolate Peanut Butter BarsWhat Makes It Different?
Attain naturally addresses the root causes of hunger cravings and helps control them at the source.
Why Is That Important?
Hunger cravings begin in one of two places: the stomach or the brain. The all-natural ingredients in Attain target the two sources of hunger cravings, helping you control your appetite so you can focus on losing weight without feeling hungry all the time.*
It Works Because…
The all-natural ingredients in Attain address the two sources of hunger cravings—your stomach and your brain.
A proprietary combination of natural oat- and barley-derived beta-glucan and inulin fibre swells in your stomach, helping create a physical feeling of fullness that fights hunger cravings.
Sights and smells can trigger hunger cravings in your brain. Using the power of natural whey protein isolates and potato protein extract, Attain promotes the release of cholecystokinin (CCK)—a hormone that tells your brain to turn off hunger cravings by inducing feelings of fullness and satisfaction.
Because Attain contains no caffeine, stimulants, or hormones, Attain is a natural way to control hunger for everyone in the family.
*Attain should not be used as a sole source of nutrition. Consult your doctor before starting any diet plan.
