Cura Romana
fast, healthy weight loss

The first two times I bought Cura Romana sprays to do the diet, I got them from Helios homeopathic pharmacy as I was put off by a couple of negative reviews here on Amazon about the quality amd taste of the spray. But this time, following a lot more recent postive reviews, I thought I'd give it a try from here and I am not disappointed - in fact I am sure it's the same product. The only disadvantage is that you have to buy two at a time here, whereas if you only need one, Helios will sell you just that, though will charge P&P on top. Note: Leslie Kenton tells you that you need two sprays per go, four times a day, but last time I did Cura Romana I discovered that I got exactly the same effects with just one spray - one pump instead of two I mean - under the tongue, in a clean mouth, and held for a few seconds before swallowing. After all, it's homeopathic, so less is more! As long as you get a good spray and contact under the tongue, one will achieve exactly the same results. I did my second Cura Romana protocol with only one bottle, which saved me £25. You will of course need more if you continue beyond the 3 1/2 weeks. If you are going to do this diet please note that you need to follow the protocol exactly and to the letter. I suspect that the few negative reviews for this product come from people who did not do so - it's easy to overlook something. Buy Leslie's book, follow the rules, it works like a dream. No hunger, rapid and safe weightloss, reshaping of your body and loss of those hard-to-shift wobbly bits. OK it's not well written nor laid out that well but it does contain all the information you need. Also read Dr Simeon's papers (the inventor of Cura Romana) online so that you understand the core principles. The only reason I am doing Cura Romana a third time is that after the second time I was unable to do the consolidation phase properly and after that I got cravings for the wrong things, then kind of gave up over winter, ate everything I shouldn't, and started putting the weight back on again. But I have never regained the weight lost from the first time around, and this time it's dropping again with ease - so far a steady 1lb a day (As a vegetarian and not very overweight in the first place, I never managed that quick a loss before). I expect to be at or close to my target weight after this go.

It works

The simplicity of the program and it’s working.

My well-being improvements , health benefits of better sleep, less anxious and the weight loss. This is my second time doing the program. I needed a reset after doing it 2 years ago and am doing it in conjunction with hoccatt sessions with Gemma Mc Donnell and i feel phenomenal this week in my final week. The program is so amazing it is beyond words

I'm losing so much weight. And it is easy to get into the rhythm of it. I'm so impressed.

Everything Aaron & Leslie says is totally true: you really aren't hungry, the cravings melt away, and the weight loss is simple. I've already got my husband on board to do it too!

Cura Romana is not only weight loss, there is so much more involved. I am very thankful for the wide information based on scientific information and personal experience of the founder, the unforgettable Leslie Kenton. How to change eating habits, how food influences our entire well being, how important it is to get in touch with ones body, which is the temple of God`s Spirit within us and therefore a living expression of his amazing creativity and love to every human being. Beyond that, there is wonderful practical advice, like the detailed foodplan on HCG diet as on Consolidation. As a Cura Romana repeater, I gladly accept the recipes, some of them I involved in my daily menu plan. Leslie's high recommendation of writing down every day for 15 minutes your thoughts, based on the book of Brenda Ueland is another great revelation. It truly helps to get in touch with our very inner self and thoughts. The problem free functioning from ordering the spray, the set up and daily guidelines of the program by Aaron Kenton I certainly like also to highlight. To me the entire Cura Roman program is like discovering a complete new land, where I am not forced into something, no - I feel encouraged and guided like on fine "wings" to discover. Thank you, Leslie! Thank you, Aaron! The difficulty in Europe, in non English speaking countries is, that many people are insecure to follow the program in English.

I'll endeavour to be honest and factual in this twice was there are Things I wish I had known before i embarked on this protocol. This protocol really does work to lose weight, and from your problem areas too. The first time round I went from 9stone 6Ibs to 8st7.5Ibs. I maintained this weight through "consolidation stage" for a few months and then caught a nasty virus where my weight went down further to 8st1Ib over a month (I was eating normally-this weight loss was due to the virus!) I then struggled to know what to do-should I try and "consolidate" this additional weight loss or go back up to my "consolidated weight"(?!) i decided to consolidate the additional unintended weight loss, and worked on maintaining this weight loss. Food allergies: the diet protocol brought to light a strong wheat intolerance and mild dairy intolerance. If this is the case for you too-you will have to be SO SO SO SLOW about reintroducing wheat back into your diet-the diet resensitivises your system so that I had real pain and bowel problems whenever I ate wheat and if I ate too much (could just be a piece of bread with my three meals a day or just one bowl of pasta) I would get diahorrea. I was tested at specialist doctors-I do not have celiac-"just" an intolerance to wheat. It was at this point I discovered Dr D'adamo's "eat right for your blood type" diet. All the intolerances I had found myself from doing this protocol agreed with "blood type" diet-I am type O and suffer with the predicted intolerances this book states. Through unsuccessfully trying to incorporate the carbs and wheat back into my diet (I would get mad cravings when I had a little and then inevitably eat more than I intended) I put he weight back on....so armed with the "blood type" diet info I went back to this cura Romano protocol a second time-but made a few more restrictions -only eating foods the protocol AND the blood type diet permitted-for type O's this means no breadsticks and favouring certain veg choices. I actually lost more weight the second time round I believe as a result of this - I went from 9st 6Ibs to 8stone in the 3 weeks! This time I was prepared for consolidation and knew to take the "carbs" introduction very very very slowly, and to limit wheat to only one meal a day, if at all. The cura Romana protocol is best suited to Type O's as it mainly consists of foods blood type diet says are "beneficial" -mostly meat/fish/protein and veg-and mostly no carbs. I would suggest reading "eat right for your blood type" diet first before doing this protocol and selection the food choices that are best for your blood type. How did I feel whilst on the diet? First two days-I felt like a living HELL-headache, stomach ache, stomach acid, nausea, hungry, feeling really unwell and weak-wondered how on earth I could carry this on-and then by day 3 I felt LOADS better-for the rest of the diet I felt amazing-loads of energy, focus, stomach not hurting, IBS under control, not hungry-the lack of apetite is the best thing about this diet-it's takes will power out of the equation completely! I had only a few days where I felt really tired and weak where my legs had lost a lost of weight and muscles were compensating. One note for women-start the diet AFTER your period-if you are 'on' whilst doing the protocol be prepared for your weight to stall(/increase as a result of fluid retention) very little weight loss, and you will feel extremely tired and fatigued/weak. Be prepared to miss a period in the month following the diet ending-rapid weight loss can mean you skip a period. Be sure to take the hormone vitamins and beneficial foods the "blood type" diet recommends and cut out the "avoid foods" it's important for women's to stabilise their hormones after following this diet! (I had to be careful as my hormones were disrupted doing this diet) If you have a "sleep debt" leading up to doing the diet you will also be very tired and weak feeling during the first week of the protocol. Stick with it, it does clear up and you'll feel better. I did sleep much better than normal and much more soundly, although often getting up to go to toilet at least once in the night (you will urinate frequently whilst losing weight so quickly on this protocol) Other advice/warnings? Hairloss. If you have fine hair or already balding-think carefully before doing this diet. When you lose a significant amount of weight rapidly a lot of your hair goes from "growing stage" to "lying dormant". I found that exactly 3 months after doing the protocol each time I lost a lot of my hair within 2-3 weeks. This was very distressing for me as a woman. It took me a while to discover that the rapid weight loss was the culprit. I found I could get round this by taking one or two "cheat days" on the diet-every 5-7 days have some high fat/protein quality foods from the "consolidation foods" selection -you won't lost weight these days but it should give your system the boost it needs to not send your hair into "non growth" stage (apologies for the lack of scientific terms here) and hopefully retain your hair. I found the "high strength collagen" for hair skin and nails from Holland and barret great for regrowjng my hair-it took about a year, but my hair is back to being thicker again. So with all these complications would I do the diet again/recommend to others? Yes-because I know this is the only way to shift weight from those problem areas and providing you follow the consolidation to the letter you will keep the weight off. I know I have broken the rules and put the weight back on (after keeping it off for 2 years) through my own fault(I had a lot to deal with in my personal life and comfort ate)-and so will do the diet "one last time" and this time, stick to the consolidation for life. But I think this diet is best suited to type -o blood type, and use "blood type" diet more rigorously throughout consolidation and life going forward. (Type O's : don't use coconut oil!)

Information, access to resources-its all made so easy.

She claims you will not be hungry. I am. Not hugely, but this spray is not helping me. I am getting thinner though.

the balance of mental and physical health you go through a transformation not just by dropping weight but by mental cleanse as well, with easy to follow guides and tools to support you every day.

This diet really works and because there ae strict rules you are not as tempted to add extra bits. The only problem is after losing 1 and half stones in 3 weeks I found it hard to follow the rest of the protocol and put most of it back on.

it is tough but it works and refocuses your brain on how much food you dont need

Works and is quite easy to follow once you read it

Mental as well as physical transformation. Cura is a way of life healing from within along with the perks of a nee body shape - a bit like the caterpillar turning into a butterfly!

I am currently on day 19, and nearing the end of taking the spray, and am absoloutely delighted with the results so far: I am 41, 5ft 5 and weighed 9.12 - which I know is not overweight at all, and would have been fine if not for the emergence of a big, flabby mid-section in the last couple of years, particularly my belly. It was very hard to shift, and I didn't want to do traditional dieting as I didn't want to lose fat from other areas, such as my bust - hence my interest in this diet, claiming to get rid of the "bad" unsightly fat instead. Well 19 days later, I have lost 14 pounds - and most of it from that horrible belly. Each day, I couldn't believe my eyes as I noticed fat almost (sorry for the cliche) melting away. My face is slimmer and more youthful - the puffy, middle aged look that made my eyes disappear has gone. My collarbones have come back. My arms are slimmer and my bust is the same. I do not want to lose anymore, and am noticing that the weight loss is beginning to slow down and stall - which may have something to do with me reaching my personal "ideal weight?" Yes it sounds almost too good to be true HOWEVER, this is not for everyone. It needs a lot of careful preparation, and the right equipment - digital scales for weighing your protein raw at each meal, physillium husks, vitamin C, lotions with no oils or fats in them other than mineral oil - you mustn't let your skin come into contact with products containing natural oils - which seems to be in everything. So beauty maintenance is kind of thrown out of the window. After two or three days, it's quite easy to follow, as I got used to the routine, and I was also happy to see the cost of the sprays etc offset by how much I saved from grocery shopping Basically you have to do your research before even thinking about beginning. You can read the Dr Simeon's original protocol Pounds and Inches which is free on the net, I found Leslie Kenton's book excellent, and followed hers which closely follows Dr Simeon's but is geared towards today's lifestyle and very informative. I don't know if I would recommend this diet to anyone who has a demanding job and a long commute. There were days when I was very tired and drained - and I work from home, however I never felt hungry. Having said that, my sister followed the diet at the same time as me, and she experienced very strong cravings and hunger (she lost a total of 18 pounds). I would definitely recommended to anyone who needs to shift stubborn fat, and is totally sick of it and sick of eating unhealthfully for any length of time and just wants to stop, but you need to follow the protocol to the letter. Update 1: I have kept the weight off. Since finishing, I have had the odd day or two of eating a whole pizza or big plate of curry, but by and large I have changed the way I eat - I no longer crave sugar and keep processed foods to a minimum, and I only feel like eating when I am genuinely hungry. This programme has helped me change the way I eat and has also changed my life. Thank you Ms Kenton! Update 2: Three months since the diet ended and my weight for the past two months has stabilised at 8.8 stones - a total weight loss of 18 pounds overall. I am very happy with this, and my husband jokes that I have the body of a 20 year old now (yeah right!) but I'm back to pre-baby weight although somewhat ironically I'd like to weigh a bit more, ideally 8.12 stones, which I am finding difficult without going on a huge junk food binge which I'm not prepared to do. I still eat healthily, but do have days of pasta with creamy sauces, or huge portions of chips, and curries (though I have cut right down on snacks desserts and biscuits, enjoying them once a week or so). I really do believe that this diet has reset my metabolism - I rarely fluctuate beyond one or two pounds now. Highly recommended if you're prepared to experience the three weeks or so of very strict eating and yes, deprivation for all the wonderful benefits after.
