Counting Calories with Rosemary Conley

Advantages: common sense, excercise included in class
Disadvantages: no free membership after target weight, pointless free CD

...My biggest achievement so far in 2005 has been losing 2 stone in 13 weeks. I could not have done it without Rosemary Conley Diet and Fitness clubs. I have been gradually gaining weight for about ten years. At a size 18-20 on my lower half I was a bit depressed at my appearance. I have tried to diet by myself but I always chuck it in after one too many packets of crisps that have tempted me. I had thought about slimming clubs in the past to motivate myself but I was not sure I wanted to spend £5 a week on being weighed and lectured. So what was different about Rosemary Conley? The main difference between Rosemary Conley Diet and Fitness clubs and other slimming clubs is the emphasis on fitness. I think others would recommend exercise but this one goes further and you get a 45 minute aerobics workout at every meeting. Each...

Give Rosemary Conley a go!!!

Advantages: exercise class included, no bulky printed material, friendly
Disadvantages: costs more than Weightwatchers,slimming world etc

...When my Mum suggested i join her at Rosemary Conley two things went immediately throught my mind.... 1. I don't know whether i fancy sweating/panting/dying in front of other people. 2. What do i wear? As someone who always wears a skirt, the thought of wear 'lycra' in public was humiliating. But...i eventually buckled and went along to my first class. (Wearing the scruffiest, oldest and only pair of trousers i owned) Of the three different locations i have been to since joining the formats have been similar: - weigh in period of about 30mins depending on number of members - A short discussion by the leader (nutrition, healthy eating tips, recipes, experiences, exercise tips....weight losses for the week...and people's experiences.approx 10 mins - an exercise class lasting approx 45 When you go to any fitness class...

Rosemary with a hint of Salsa!

Advantages: Fun workout, good music tracks, Rosemary is encouraging
Disadvantages: Might take a while to get the steps

...I have been on a task to lose some weight after having Harry, as I never really shifted those baby pounds (naughty me). I've done well through healthy eating, losing just over a stone and I am now back to the weight I was just before I got pregnant. However, I like to do a bit of exercise every now and then just to keep fit, and I also want to tone up as well...this is the bit I am still trying to work on! I already own a few exercise DVD's but I fancied a change. When I saw this DVD in my local charity shop for just £1, I couldn't resist. I set about trying it that afternoon and realised how much more fun this DVD was than the other aerobic workout ones I had! Rosemary Conley's Shape Up and Salsacise does pretty much what it says on the tin. The DVD contains different workouts centred around the dance of the Salsa, a Spanish dance...

Review of Rosemary Conley - Shape Up And Salsacise (DVD)

Rosemary Conley Diet & Fitness Clubs - amazing!

Advantages: Everything - fab weight loss, made friends and had fun
Disadvantages: NONE! (can't beleive im writing none!)

...What a fantastic club! I have tried other weight loss clubs and none have been nearly as effective. My class cost £6 a week - although if you join premier club, you get loads of benefits, don't have to pay as you go and its cheaper. The instructors are lovely - and all training by the guru Rosemary Conley herself - you can't get much better than this. Value for money is great - you get weigh in, personal advice, a 10min motivational talk AND A 45 MINUTE EXERCISE session - all for the same price as other slimming clubs! The exercise is very good - it is structured and everyone can do it - every level is catered for. I've made loads of good friends and really think that i will keep going even when i hit my goal weight just to keep it all going! Will recommend to everyone and anyone!...

Rosemary Conley Fitness Video

Advantages: easy to do. something for everyone
Disadvantages: have to rewind and fast forward a lot

...I am a disabled lady and was looking for low impact exercise video tape which contained exercises I could do without standing and having to dance around the room. I found Rosemary Conleys video New Body by design video was really good. It has six sections to this tape three of which are all laying or sitting on the floor. I have been doing this exercise plan now for two weeks at roughly fifteen minutes each day and it is really helping. I would recommend this for any one in my position although there are still parts which I find to difficult but then everyone is different and Rosemary has I am sure had this in mind when making this video....

Rosemary Conley Diet Class

Advantages: Exercise included in weekly fee, diet fairly easy
Disadvantages: Expense

...I've belonged to my local Rosemary Conley Diet & Fitness Class for just over a year now. I've tried every diet going nearly and this is the best one as far as I'm concerned. I pay £18.00 a month which means that I can go to as many classes in my area to exercise and just weigh once a week as usual. The class consists of weight in, followed by a motivational talk and then the exercise. I don't find it 'happy clappy' like Weightwatchers and your weight loss (or gain!) is confidential. You also get a Slimmer of the Week certificate if you have the most weight loss which is a real motivation to beat everyone else in your class! My local class also has a Salsa Dance Evening which makes it more enjoyable than the bog standard aerobics class. The diet itself is simple to follow with lots of diet plans available for you to...

Rosemary Connerly - Shape Up and Salsacise

Advantages: Fantastic Fun and Witty Routines
Disadvantages: Having to watch her helpers as they fake smile through the pain!

...When I first tried this DVD I was aiming to get fit and shape up perhaps litterally what the title says (to be honest I bought it as it was on special offer!) The first level is a gentle introduction into Salsacise and Rosemary encourages watchers to feel the rhythm of the music and cha cha cha with their feet after almost every move. The catchy beat and quick steps make this first section thoroughly enjoyable. Rosemary also introduces you to her assistants who have lost an incredible amount of weight between them! I chose to follow Juilette who was doing the routines in a more advanced way. There is also a lady called Jaqui who does the routine in a more introductory style for those who are not quite as fit. Rosemary does a sort of 'in the middle' attempt but I do not blame her as she talks almost all the time! All the new moves...

Review of Rosemary Conley - Shape Up And Salsacise (DVD)

Another Excellent Rosemary Workout DVD

Advantages: Some short workouts, timer, various levels (easy to hard).
Disadvantages: Some moves take a little practice to get right.

...Like other Rosemary's fitness workouts she has a number of different people working at various levels. When i first started this particular workout six years ago (on video back then) i was very unfit and so followed the lowest level. It was a great way to ease myself into exercising without feeling useless because i couldn't possibly do the medium to hard levels. However, it does give you an idea of where you can get to and gives you goals to work towards. I soon managed to reach the harder level and felt a lot fitter and that i'd acheived something. So once again at the beginning of this year, after four years of not doing any sort of exercise (due to changes in my life) other than a few sit ups every morning, i bought the DVD version, since i no longer owned a video player. Here's what you'll find on the DVD: INTRODUCTION...

Review of Rosemary Conley - Fat Attack (DVD)

My friend Rosemary

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...I love growing and using herbs and one of my favourites is Rosemary. Rosemary is easy to grow, looks and smells wonderful and can be used in many ways. Growing Rosemary. ***************** How to grow Rosemary is the obvious place to start this review. The first thing to say is that Rosemary is really easy to grow and in my experience quite forgiving too! Having said that Rosemary is not easy to grow from seed. I recommend you buy your plant from a nursery. They are really cheap, usually about £1 each. April is the ideal month for planting outside although it is not to late now in early may. Rosemary originates from the Mediterranean and so not surprisingly likes to grow in a sunny spot. It also likes sandy soil although my plants grow very happily in clay soil. Planting is really easy; simply dig a hole about 3 inches deep...
