"I want women and men everywhere to realize just how simple weight loss can be," Rhone added. "They can start with these three tips and they'll be well on their way."

Weight Loss Tip #1:

Avoid soft drinks, juices and other drinks loaded with sugar. These types of drinks are very high in calories. A twelve-ounce soda contains 150 calories of almost all sugar.

Weight Loss Tip #2:

Eat 5-10 servings of fruits and vegetables each day. They will help you meet your micronutrient needs for the day. And since they are a good source of fiber, they will help you curb your appetite and control hunger.

Weight Loss Tip #3:

Record what you eat and drink. You will be amazed at what you consume over the course of the day without ever realizing it. Keeping a food journal is critical to your success because it gives you the true picture of what you are eating each day.

Follow these quick weight loss tips and you are sure to feel good and look fabulous in your bathing suit next summer

Jamie's Therapeutic Touch day spa offers Pumpkin Spice Treatments in Palestine Tx

Published: October 24, 2009 11:42 pm

Pumpkin treatments available at local spa

It’s pumpkin season. There’s jack-o-lanterns, pumpkin pies, pumpkin breads, pumpkin soups, pumpkin bars — and in Palestine, pumpkin treatments galore.

Now pumpkins have expanded from their usual festivals and dinner tables into beauty counters and spa stores.

And it isn't just about marketing strategy either, because pumpkins can actually benefit the skin, especially as an exfoliator. Pumpkin promotes good health and wellness through sustenance and scent, but it also provides numerous benefits when applied to the skin. Pumpkin is “one of the richest sources of alpha carotene for a skin plumping effect on collagen.”

At Jamie's Therapeutic Touch day Spa, the spa has introduced new arrangement of Pumpkin Spice treatments: Pumpkin Pie Anti Aging Facial, The pumpkin pie foot Pampering Treatment, Pumpkin facial and body peel, Pumpkin Spice Body weight loss wrap, Pumpkin Spice Body Glow, Pumpkin Spice Bath Soak, Pumpkin Honey Mask, Pumpkin Spice Whipped Body Butter, a pumpkin pedicure and a pumpkin manicure — to repair and prep skin for the harsh winter season ahead.

"A pumpkin peel is really good to do at the end of the winter, because it will slough off all the dead skin and get your skin ready for the spring," said Jamie Rhone, owner /esthetician /massage therapist at Jamie's Therapeutic Touch day spa.

Other benefits include softening, tightening, hydrating, and cleansing the skin, Rhone said.

To celebrate autumn, Rhone recommend a pumpkin-based spa treatment to promote the healthy glow in your skin. Pumpkin is rich in plant enzymes which act as a natural exfoliant that gently removes dead skin cells. Pumpkin's rich carotenoid antioxidants neutralize free radicals, attacking the molecules that are responsible for premature aging. The ultimate benefit of a pumpkin spa treatment is to repair dull, sun damaged skin and to re-nourish it with vitamins and minerals leaving the skin feeling smooth and hydrated. Pumpkin glycolic peels, for instance, smooth the skin, refine pores, eliminate hyper pigmentation and prepare the skin for both moisturizers and makeup. Full body exfoliation in the form of a sugar or salt scrub is an excellent preparation for winter faux tanning.
