The P.I.N.K Method

For one of the blogs for my ALES 204 class I was given the option of doing a blog of my choice and I chose to do my blog on the P.I.N.K Method. Ever heard of it? You may not have heard of it since it was only released this November; but then again maybe you have heard of it from all the press it has gotten being on shows like Dr Phil and the Doctors.  I chose to write a blog about the P.I.N.K Method because it is a very unique weight loss system specifically for women; but I also chose to write about it because this is a similar idea to the business I hoped to open, which led me to pursue an education in nutrition.

Just to give a bit of background information about the P.I.N.K Method it was created by celebrity

nutritionist Cynthia Pasquella. P.I.N.K stands for Power, Intensity, Nutrition and Kardio. This weight loss system includes two different parts, the work out – which is divided into three phases- and the nutritional guide.  I am putting more focus on the nutritional guide because that’s the part that I find most important about this weight loss program. No matter how much you work out to get fit you will always run into that plateau where you will no longer lose weight or see results; but in order to see the results and push past this weight loss plateau you must change your diet too. For most people without an education in food or nutrition knowing the right sort of diet to take to overcome the weight loss plateau may be difficult. Whereas in the P.I.N.K Method they offer a 240+ page nutritional guide that offers recipes and four different types of diets to help to maximize your weight loss depending where you are in the weight loss program.

I love the idea of not only offering work out videos but a huge nutritional guide to go alongside it to help the all around weight loss formation.  But the P.I.N.K Method also utilizes their website for online

nutritional and exercise support because support is key in weight loss - especially when it is a do it yourself weight loss program. This online community allows you to chat with an expert for help getting any questions answered that you may have; not only that but they allow you to chat with fellow women who are pursuing weight loss using the P.I.N.K Method.  The online community is an amazing way to get motivation and support by making friends with other women who are pursuing the same goal – to lose weight. They also utilize blogging and twitter to help fellow women and to spread word of their product.

Like I mentioned earlier I want to start a business similar to that of the P.I.N.K Method except it would not be a do it yourself weight loss program. The ideas I have for opening my own business is the reason why I am pursuing an education in nutrition because that knowledge will be key to maintaining my business. But after reading other classmates blogs I realized that we all have different reasons for taking nutrition – like Rebecca.  Her story is very inspirational and she has a very different reason for taking nutrition.  You should check it out here!
