Get Your Sensa On

The girls from Sensa were awesome with us from the start. They took their time in coming around to each and every Latina Lifestyle Blogger present at the Latina Lifestyle Blogger Conference and did their best to get to know us better. Because of this, they made us all feel instantly at ease. A lot of you may be wondering what Sensa is. Thankfully, I’m in your life and am here to explain it to you: it is a weight loss system that helps you lose weight “through smell”. You see, as you eat, your smell and taste receptors tell your body you’re full, thanks to a program Sensa calls “Sensory Specific Safety”. This is achieved through/with the “Sensa Tastants”. These Tastants consist of 6 different scent/flavor powder combination that are designed to help kick the scent and taste bud receptors into high gear, making you feel full a lot faster.
How does all of this work? All you have to do is sprinkle some on your food before you eat. Thankfully, the Tastants don’t have any sort of aftertaste or smell. It sounds a little too good to be true, right? I’m going to be honest here: a few of the girls decided to try it out at lunch and they left at least half of their food behind. Some were even upset because they were really enjoying their food and wish they could finish it, but they were just too full. I don’t know if it was just a mind game or a placebo effect, but whatever it was, it worked!
Sensa has a variety of products to help out with curbing your cravings/appetite throughout the day. For instance, they have some tasty “chews” that you take, along with a full glass of water. These chews help expand your stomach, giving you the feeling of being full. It’s important to have them with water, though, because if not, you will just keep eating them like candy, like one of the Latina Bloggers did J
One of the things I really liked was the “Sensa Quench”, a flavored powder you add to your water. I get bored with water really easily, so I love adding Crystal Light flavored powders to get me to keep up with my water intake. The Sensa powders are really a treat because they not only taste great; they also contain green tea and caffeine, which gives me a much-needed boost throughout the day. I’m actually considering giving up coffee, as a result.
I was lucky enough to win a Sensa gift bag, chockfull of Sensa Tastants, Chews, Quench powders and a bunch of other goodies. I will be sure to keep you posted in regards to how well Sensa works for me. On average, Sensa users lose about 30 pounds in 6 months. I’m aiming for 40!
