Weight Management Programs

For women especially, we know that how you feel about your body—its shape, its size, its definition—affects your perception of wellness. While strengthening your heart, lungs, bones and muscles through diet and exercise are vital, what you see in the mirror and how your clothes fit often affect how healthy you truly feel. Whether you're trying to lose, gain or maintain your weight, Carolina Woman has a weight management solution for you that targets those vital areas of wellness, while addressing—and improving—how you perceive yourself.

Some of our weight management solutions, which may be combined or used individually, include:

APEX BODYBUGG™
Exclusively at Carolina Woman, we're proud the offer the Apex Bodybugg, the world's most intelligent calorie management system and your ultimate answer to healthy and effective weight management—for good!

So, what's different about this program? While traditional weight loss programs focus on tedious calorie counting, Bodybugg is the only system on the market today that allows you to measure actual calories burned and consumed. For the first time ever, you now have the information you need to manage your weight loss without guesswork. Know exactly how much you need to adjust your food intake and/or activity levels to reach your goals. It's a wake-up call that makes weight loss success simple and virtually guarantees results.

Bodybugg uses today's hottest technology to give you the tools to reach and maintain your ideal weight. The two simple components of the Bodybugg system—the Bodybugg armband (a small, sleek device worn on the upper arm) and the Bodybugg Web interface—work together to tell you exactly how many calories you've burned and consumed every day. It gives you the information and puts you in control of your weight loss goals.

Even though Bodybugg will change your life, we don't believe that you need to be put on a restrictive diet or an unsustainable workout plan. The Bodybugg system will give you suggestions on how to slightly change your food intake and/or your activity level to meet your goals. If you are on a program that you enjoy, the Bodybugg can also work as a complement to any diet or exercise program. All that matters is that you keep an average daily deficit based on your goals. How you get there is up to you!

By the way, Bodybugg has been touted in Oprah magazine, Popular Science, Muscle & Fitness Hers, PC World, Forbes and Self, among other notable media outlets.

APEX SUPPLEMENTS
In 2002, the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) published an article stating that all adults should take a multivitamin. In support of this, Carolina Woman offers Apex supplements and nutritional products, which undergo stringent efficacy testing. Apex uses a pharmaceutical manufacturer, Phoenix Labs, to produce its dietary supplements and they are subjected to the same testing methods employed in manufacturing pharmaceutical products.

According to Apex, vitamins and supplements of many other brands dissolve all at once. This approach can lead to waste and only gives you a two to three-hour spike of nutrients, leaving you unprotected for most of the day. Apex and Phoenix Labs have spent considerable time developing a sophisticated delivery system to ensure that products will be absorbed by the body in the right place at the right time.

Typically, other brands' products are not designed to work together in a system, hence many bars are highly vitamin-fortified. If you are taking numerous products together (e.g. multivitamin, meal replacement bar, weight-loss supplement), you run the risk of exceeding the daily safe range for certain nutrients.

Apex products are developed to work together in a system with the multivitamin as the centerpiece. This approach ensures you get what you need without fear of exceeding the safe and optimal nutrient range.
