The Venus Factor Review: Exclusive Weight Loss Program For Women
If you are anything like me, you probably aren’t happy with the way you look. Know that you are not alone. 91% of women over the age of 18 are unhappy with the way their body looks, according to recent research. As I aged I quickly started noticing my body changing. I had kids; everything got soft and squishy. I didn’t lose all the baby weight and I lugged around extra pounds. I found diet programs frustrating, mostly because I wasn’t seeing any results. I continued to lose and gain the same twenty pounds over and over again.
Have you ever felt like diet programs just weren’t designed for you? Did you ever think that these programs didn’t seem to understand basic physiology? After all, I had considered myself to be a pretty normal woman. If these programs weren’t working for me, they must have been designed wrong. The fact of the matter is, they kind of are designed wrong. They are designed for men, not the female body.
Males and females have very unique bodies. They are designed for different types of work. Women are built to bare and nurture babies. We store extra fat in the midsection. We have hips, thighs and backsides, all designed to store fat, and keep us and our babies healthy in times of famine.
Is Leptin Keeping You Heavy?

So, what exactly is keeping you heavy? Well, the foods you eat play a role, obviously. Your exercise level also plays a role, but there is a chemical component that is also at work, and very few fitness programs talk about it, Leptin. Leptin is a hormone that regulates your appetite, your metabolism and, in turn your weight. The VF system starts out by talking about Leptin, and this showed me just how different this program really was. I consider myself a bit of an expert in fad diets. I’ve tried gluten-free, low-carb, low-fat, sugar-free diets a million times over. None of them worked, but since this diet talked about something entirely different, I figured why not.
Leptin, as a hormone, is present in both men and women. Leptin resistance occurs in many people. It is more common in women, and because many overweight women suffer from Leptin resistance it is no wonder that most weight loss programs don’t work. Simply put, women who suffer from it, fail to receive the signal that enough food has been consumed. This makes it easy to eat way too much and pack on extra pounds.
It’s ironic, really. Women’s bodies are actually backfiring on them. Mine did the same. Many women fall into leptin resistance, even more often after having a baby. You know, the time when you need to lose weight the most. I finally understood what was going on, and the VF system helped me take control of my body once again.
Good News For Women
While leptin resistance certainly poses a problem for most women, there is good news. You aren’t doomed to be overweight for the rest of your life. The Venus Factor system has unlocked the secret to making it work for you, rather than against you. Strangely enough, women produce more leptin than men, our bodies just don’t use it as well. The right foods, the right exercise and a bit of mindfulness, however, goes a long way to reversing that problem and making this hormone work for you. Through the VF, you’ll learn how to eat and exercise right, to reverse the leptin resistance that has built up in your body over time.
The Venus Factor Advantages
I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty skeptical about weight loss programs, simply because so many of them have let me down. That’s why I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the Venus Factor was something different and it didn’t feel like another gimmick. Actually, I believe it’s helping me override my metabolism.
Also, let’s face it: I needed someone to hold my hand through it. There have been many times I’ve stepped into a grocery store, ready to pick out healthy foods and felt completely stymied by the aisles and aisles of options. I’ve always wanted to eat the right things, but what stops me is often not poor willpower so much as confusion about what I should eat instead. That’s where the program helped me, thanks to the Virtual Nutritionist.
While the nutrition component of the system could have been enough in itself, packed into this powerful program are bonus work out and exercise videos. These will not just help you loss weight, but also get tighter, sexier body at the same time. I can see it’s slowly but surely changing the shape of my body.
Lots of weight loss programs that didn’t work for me did have one crucial component I still needed – social support. I didn’t realize how badly I needed it until I finally had it in a dieting system. I’m raising children, and I don’t have time to go to actual group meetings for support. The program helped me with that too; it includes access to a great online VF Community of other women who are going through the same struggles. We are able to give each other encouragement and share our victories.
Honestly, at first I wasn’t so sure about this program. I felt a little let down. At the time, I was use to seeing flashy celebrity diets and I wanted something that would help me lose all the weight in a month or so. Now I know that’s not realistic, but stupid as it sounds, those flashy promises filled me with hope. I’ve been thrilled with the results so far, and the fact that weight has been steadily coming off now. I can now fit in dresses that I gave up on years ago. I don’t have to starve myself or take harmful medications. I have enough information now to outsmart my own genes, and feel good about it!
What I like About the Venus Factor
Overall, this a great system that is easy to follow and well designed. It’s flaxable, it’s simple and it gives you all the education you’ll need on nutrition. Yes, the exercise can be a bit daunting, but the results are amazing and I’m motivated to continue. The diet plan is not difficult to follow and I didn’t suffer from strong hunger or cravings. What I really liked is the way the program explains the different hang-ups women have when they are attempting to lose weight. I could identify with them, as I too had those hang-ups. It was fascinating to learned that many so-called truths about dieting are actually myths.
Finally, The Venus Factor program will give you the essential diet and fitness tools you’ll need to get the body you want, while still being able to enjoy your life to its fullest. I wish you all success in your weight loss journey!
