Did You Know? America has the highest rate of obesity in the world. Over 2/3 of adults in the United States are overweight and over 1/3 are obese * In 1980, nearly 6.5% children aged years were obese. For 2008, this number grew to 19.8%. Before I begin telling you about our new weight-loss program, I just wanted to go through a few background facts about obesity in the US…(read facts on slide)…obviously obesity is a huge problem in our country. *National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

Risk Factors for Obesity
80% of type II diabetes related to obesity 70% of Cardiovascular disease related to obesity 42% breast and colon cancer diagnosed among obese individuals Because of our elevated rates of obesity, we have increasing rates of disease as well. I’m sure everyone in the room know of someone who is obese and has had problems with one of these diseases. Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

Discrimination After viewing videotaped job interviews of several applicants with equal qualifications, people rated obese applicants to be: less qualified less likely to be hired having poorer work habits more likely to fake an illness and stay home from work more likely to have emotional problems more likely to have problems with fellow workers It is not surprising that we as a culture also discriminate against overweight and obese people.

FAT Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy® Weight Management
Lets talk a little bit about FAT! Your body’s preferred sources of calories for energy production are carbohydrates and fats. Carbohydrates and fats can be quickly metabolized during digestion and used as an immediate source of fuel for cellular energy. Carbohydrates are converted to glucose, or “blood sugar,” and provide a burst of energy after eating. Carbohydrates can also be stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles and is also used in energy production Slim & Sassy® Weight Management Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

FAT IN Stored Calories Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend
Excess calories from carbohydrates that are not used up as glucose or stored as glycogen are stored as FAT. Dietary fat is also an excellent and preferred source of readily-available energy in your body. But as with unused carbohydrates, unused dietary fats are also stored in fat cells for later use. When glucose, glycogen, and fats are not available for energy production, proteins may also be converted to glucose, but proteins are primarily used as building material for cell and tissue growth and repair. However, your body has a limited capacity to utilize protein and excess protein is also converted to FAT. (Note: The amount of stored energy, measured as kcals, in 154-lb adult male is 80 kcals as glucose, 1740 kcals as glycogen, and 94,500 kcals as fat, or in other words, 98% of your body’s stored energy is stored as fat!) Slim & Sassy® Weight Management Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

FAT IN OUT Stored Calories Calories Released
Obviously, then, when the amount of calories we consume is insufficient to support our daily activities (energy needs), we “burn” more of our stored fat. Released Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy® Weight Management

ness FAT Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy® Weight Management
The sum total of all of our calories minus the amount we “use” = BODY FAT. And that’s the fat we don’t like to talk about. Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy® Weight Management

Interestingly, while our body can make MORE fat cells, it cannot eliminate them. When we burn stored fat, the fat cells “deflate” (BALLOON ANALOGY: Take 2 balloons. Blow one up almost to full, tie it closed. Ask two people in the audience to come and help you. Give one the inflated balloon, and one the uninflated balloon. Let them sit down but ask them to keep the balloons “on” them ) Fatness Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy® Weight Management

Why do I have too much fat?
Feast Famine There are many factors that contribute to being overweight or obese. For some people the factors are complex and involve extenuating health conditions. But for most people, weight gain in the form of excess adipose or fatty tissue results from poor lifestyle habits and choices. One theory of unhealthy weight gain can be metaphorically described as the “Caveman Syndrome.” The two basic concepts of this theory are 1) Your body does not believe your food supply will be constant, and 2) your body believes you will have to work very hard to obtain your food. Operating on these two assumptions, your body tells you to feast on food when it is available, and tells you to eat foods that are packed with calories that can be easily converted to energy as you will likely be chasing more food, or being chased as food, in the very near future. When you eat food, your body uses what it needs for immediate energy to support vital life functions and stores the rest as fat in case you encounter the need to go without food in the future. Interestingly, your body also tells you to conserve your stored energy (stay on the couch) for a future date when you will have to travel great distances and exert great effort to find more food. Although a great energy conservation strategy for a caveman, the problem with these fundamental working assumptions in your body is: Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

Why do I have too much fat?
You are not a caveman! You are not a caveman! In the developed world most people do not have to hunt for their food. Fast, cheap, convenient, and flavorful food choices are readily available in high quantities. In fact, the most affordable and most convenient sources of food (sweets and fats) are the foods that your body prefers for energy production. It also prefers these foods because any extra calories it doesn’t need for energy now can be easily stored as fat for later use. And if you can get all that food without a great deal of physical exertion then your body says, “All the better—you are one smart caveman! Now keep eating.” The problem is while some of us eat like cavemen, most of us are not forced to go without food and work like cavemen. We simply eat too much and sit too often which makes us fat.

FAT Slim & Sassy Weight-Loss Products Slim & Sassy Blend
Lifelong Vitality Pack TerraZyme Complex Zendocrine TrimShake (coming!) Let’s go ahead and talk about the products in the program and how they are going to help you lose weight. (You will want to have a sample of each of these at your meeting, esp. the shakes so people may sample them—almond milk is great medium for the shakes.) Slim & Sassy® Weight Management Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend
Helps manage appetite and lifts mood during dieting* Supports healthy metabolism of fat and energy production*  Supports healthy insulin response*  Supports management of toxins* First, the Slim and Sassy essential oil blend provides a targeted approach to fat loss by (read bullets): helping to manage the ups and downs of appetite and mood during dieting, support the metabolism, and support healthy insulin response (more info below, optional). Insulin resistance can result from the over consumption of foods high in refined carbohydrates or sugars that trigger release of insulin. Over time, too much insulin in the blood stream decreases cell sensitivity to insulin stimulation. When cell receptors “resist” insulin, it prevents glucose metabolism and your cells become starved for energy even though there still might be high amounts of glucose in your blood. As less glucose is converted to glycogen, our bodies produce an overabundance of insulin and more glucose is converted to fat. Eating foods that have fewer simple sugars and more complex carbohydrates can help lower insulin resistance. A well-balanced diet that includes whole foods high in fiber will also help level insulin response. Exercise can also be an important factor in lowering insulin resistance. And getting enough sleep is also important as a growing body of evidence indicates that sleep deprivation also increases insulin resistance. Studies show that the oils in Slim & Sassy will help support a healthy insulin response. *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

FEWER NEW FAT CELLS DEFLATES CURRENT FAT CELLS
Slim & Sassy helps to reduce the number of fat cells our body is making and also helps to REDUCE the size of our exisiting fat cells. (continue balloon analogy by asking your two balloon holders to “hide” their balloons on their persons. Obviously it will be much easier for the deflated balloon to “hide’” in a pocket or hand. Just like a fat cell. (next slide) Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy® Weight Management

Toxins Liver Body Fat Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend
We are all exposed to harmful toxins or chemicals—whether through the food we eat, air we breathe, or other ways. Toxins are either soluble in water or in fat. Water-soluble toxins in our body are eliminated through sweating or through the kidneys. Fat-soluble toxins are not as easily disposed of and must be handled differently by the body. As a protection mechanism, the body isolates toxins in the fat cells of the liver and adipose tissues in an attempt to insulate or shield the body from toxic exposure. When we start down the path of weight loss through healthy lifestyle choices, higher amounts of fat get burned for energy and the toxins stored in fat can be released back into the bloodstream. Sometimes people who lose a lot of weight quickly will report feeling physically sick or emotionally out of balance as these toxins are released into their systems. If not properly managed and disposed of, these toxins can re-enter the liver and be re-isolated in fat frustrating previous weight-loss success.

Slim and Sassy also contains citrus oils that help the body to eliminate these harmful toxins. (Grapefruit demo: drop a few drops of grapefruit essential oil into a styrofoam cup and watch as it dissolves the petrochemicals. These oils do not damage body tissues, just the toxins) Slim & Sassy® Weight Management Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

+ 25 drops/day Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend
An important part of healthy fat metabolism and toxin management in the body is proper hydration. Some diet programs employ diuretics that cause the body to eliminate water and dehydrate resulting in temporary weight loss but do nothing to change body fat composition. Not providing your body with proper hydration also slows down healthy metabolism of food nutrients and fat, and can also slow down your body’s healthy elimination of toxins. Using dōTERRA’s Slim & Sassy Metobolic Blend in water frequently throughout the day as directed supports healthy hydration and your body’s healthy elimination of toxins that might slow down your weight-loss efforts. The essential oils in Slim & Sassy are lipophilic in structure meaning they dissolve in, and can dissolve, fat-soluble compounds. Several drops of Slim & Sassy Metabolic Blend in water provides a refreshing alternative to beverages with stimulants and artificial sweeteners that are often used during dieting. Slim & Sassy has no calories, no stimulants, and no artificial sweeteners or chemicals. It includes only 100% Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade essential oil extracts.

In addition to adding these products into your daily regimen, you may need to make other lifestyle changes. Lets talk about lifestyle for a moment. Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy® Weight Management

dōTERRA’s Wellness Lifestyle pyramid promotes good health and a healthy body mass, which begins with eating right.

+ Eat less Exercise more Lean body mass Which is easier?
When it comes to diet, we have a choice between eating fewer calorie and burning more through exercise. Which is easier? Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend

Yet eating less can be very hard. Food can be both physically and emotionally pleasurable. When we are hungry, our bodies send powerful signals through various physiological pathways to let us know it is time to eat. When we respond by eating, equally powerful signals reward us for responding to our bodies’ desires to eat. These signals are influenced over time by how much we eat, what we eat , and why we eat. The combination of these powerful signals to eat make up our “appetite.” When we reduce the amount of calories our bodies are used to getting when we “diet,” our appetites are heightened and we experience physical and emotional discomfort. These discomforts are real and it requires self control to not respond to our bodies’ plea for more food. When appetites become too strong, we often give in and eat an abundance of high-calorie foods to satiate our bodies’ desire for readily available sources of energy. Furthermore, our bodies panic and store more calories as fat just in case we decide to starve ourselves again in the future. Permanent and healthy weight loss will most likely result from a gradual decrease in the calories we consume and increasing the amount of calories we burn through regular physical activity. Managing the emotional and physical discomforts of a reduced calorie diet will also improve our chances of success. Slim & Sassy® Weight Management Slim & Sassy™ Metabolic Blend
