My Forever F.I.T Review

FOREVER F.I.T REVIEW

Hi my name is Matt Craven and I'm a working class family man 33 years of age who was very fit in my 20's but my lifestyle changed that as we all know.
  •  I got a career 
  • I settled down and my family grew 
  • Work started taking over as I had bills to pay 
  • My body was changing size for the worst 
  • My health wasn't good and I was feeling the stress 
  • I ran out of time for training and only played rugby every now and then 
Any of this sound familiar ?
Life takes its toll and your body feels the strain and this was the result of those few years that flew by:




My family noticed I was putting on weight and stressed. I was eating when and where I could, most days consisted of eating ready meals, snacks whilst at my desk and on the go, which I knew wasn't giving me the nutrients and minerals my body needed and at times I would eat more calories than I needed so my body was just storing the excess calories as fat.

Looking back at a few pictures one day I could see how I let myself go from being a fit, healthy young man to, well basically I had become a SLOB and was using every excuse in the book as to why I couldn't train or eat healthy.
After a Christmas and a few months passed by these images were still in my head and I was becoming depressed in myself thinking about them and thought I need to change and only I could change it.

So that day came and I searched through some old workouts and training programs I did back in the Forces whilst I was on Tour. I started to knuckle down and get myself sorted, I studied the internet for meal plans and Diet Plans (which were good but I put it back on after I completed the Diet).
So with all this information gathered I could see most meal plans could be costly as some of the food was way above my shopping budget. My Mum could see I was looking to change and mentioned the Nutri-Lean Program with Forever Living to which I refused because of the cost and the failed diets I had already done.

With this said my Mum came back with '' Well this Weight Management Program comes with a  60 Day Money Back Guarantee, so really you have nothing to lose by trying it''.
So I worked it out and it was true it worked out cheaper but not only that it would guide me down the path to weight maintenance and fitness habits that will last for the rest of my life. So with the Money Back Guarantee I had nothing to lose.

Remember there is no '' Quick Fix'' to lifetime weight management. 

What does the Forever F.I.T contain?


  • 3 x Aloe Vera Gel Drink 1 litre bottles 
  • 2 x Forever Lite Ultra Shake Mix 524 grams 
  • 1 x Forever Garcinia Plus 70 softgels 
  • 1 x Forever Lean 120 capsules 
  • 1 x Forever Probiotic 30 beadlets 
  • Access to the Nutri-Lean website with meals plans etc  
  • A booklet to help you through the programme 
  • Your Forever Distributor to support you through the plan 
The Forever F.I.T teaches you:

  • You CAN Control your weight 
  • Cutting back and understanding Portion control and moderation 
  • How to read and understand labels 
  • Learn the difference between good and bad fats 
  • Help you make friends with your Metabolism 
  • Learn to listen to your body. 
  • About the Calories your body needs and losing weight 
It does however require initial effort and motivation which will eventually become second nature in your daily routine.
So when you look at the big picture its not just another Diet its a Lifestyle Change and long term life plan which I discovered.

Here is a Typical Week

Measured my body parts and weight:

Arm - 14 inchs
Waist - 42 inchs
Hip - 40 inchs
Thigh - 28 inchs
Chest - 46 inchs
Weight- 16 stone 7

An example of My Days Program :

Morning - 1 x Forever Garcinia Plus capsule (20-30 mins before a meal)
                1 x scoop Forever Lite Ultra with 300ml of Skimmed Milk (Soya Milk can be used)
                1 x piece of Fruit 4 egg whites (hard boiled)

Snack - 60ml Aloe Vera Gel Drink
             1 x whole-wheat English muffin with tbsp peanut butter

Lunch - 1 x Forever Garcinia Plus
             2 x Forever Lean capsules (before the meal)
             1 x Chicken Breast Strips, Salad on wholemeal pitta bread

Snack - 60ml Aloe Vera Gel Drink
             1 x piece of Fruit

Dinner - 1 x Garcinia Plus capsule
              2 x Forever Lean Capsules
              1 x Probiotic beadlet (take with water BEFORE eating your meal)
              100g Pork Chop (fat trimmed), 125g Brown Rice, 125g Cooked Spinach

Training for the week

Warm up Skipping 5 mins

10 x Close Arm Press Up
10 x Normal Press Up
10 x Wide Arm Press Up
10 x Tricep Press on the seat of a chair
10 x Arm Curls with Resistance Band (Red)

10 Crunchies
10 Ankle Taps (on each Leg)
10 Inners
10 Cycling Twists
10 Half Sits

REST 1 Minute Repeat Two more times (this was done 3 times a week)

Cross Trainer 30 minutes
Cycling 40 minutes
Walk up and Down the stairs for 10 minutes

This is just one of the Weeks of the program I did with a basic overview of what was involved, some of the days I had 2 shakes it was just what was fitted around my lifestyle at the time.
You can have your own routine that fits around your lifestyle as everyone is different, this is where I will find a routine that's personal to YOU.

The End Result

My result of the Nutri-Lean Program after the 30 days:



 I am happy so far with my results,
I weigh 14 stone 11lbs and am still taking the Forever Lite and Aloe Gel Drink as I am looking to bulk up ready for getting back into rugby.

Remember this wasn't training everyday this was fitted around a real persons lifestyle, a working family man, if you have more time you would get better results than me.







I squeezed in training when and where I could and also did added things like:

  •  Watched my portion control 
  • Parked the far end of the car park (my partner wasn't to pleased) 
  • Took the stairs when and where I could 
  •  Spent most of the time working out at home in the house or the garden 
  • Used my own body weight for training 
  • Bought grapes instead of crisps so the kids and I ate healthier 
Some of these might seem silly but it all adds up over time trust me.

During the program I didn't feel sluggish or down like most diets I had tried, I felt much more upbeat and energized and with the knowledge it was like learning something new again.
People actually noticed me which gave me more confidence to talk to people and friends again I became back to what I was, that happy laid back person.

Since the Forever F.I.T Program I have joined the business and want to help others reach their goals in life and do what I did Lose Weight and change my Life Style because its defiantly paid off.

Why Is It Important To Exercise Whilst Losing Weight?

Believe it or not Exercise is an important part in maintaining overall health and fitness for both you and your body and your mind.

Your Scale Weight can be manipulated through diet alone, for ideal results you want to be looking at achieving a healthy balance between:
  • Muscle
  • Fat
But this can only be attained through regular Exercise.

As I know and many qualified trainers will tell you, many people don't understand, however, is the importance of mixing:
  • Cardio or Aerobic exercise
  • Weight Lifting
Aerobic - means '' with oxygen '' so when you exercise aerobically there is adequate supply of oxygen available to create the energy needed for muscles to function.

Aerobic Exercise involves large muscle groups that can be exercised in a rhythmic and continuous manner.
For example:
  • Walking
  • Running (a lot of people hate this)
  • Cycling
  • Rowing
  • Cross Country Skiing
A few benefits for Exercise

  • Burns up Calories
  • Speeds up the metabolism
  • Release of Endorphines
  • Using Muscles- Fibres become smaller
  • Exercise can reduce your risk of Heart Attack and Stroke
  • You are more likely to have joint pain or lower back pain if you don't do any exercise
  • Exercise helps you feel happier
The last one on the list is always good.

Whats Stopping YOU? 

Get Started!

The average adult needs to do at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day, on five or more days a week to gain the health benefits.

Seems a lot!

But you don't need to spend hours at the gym or run marathons its not what were saying here. Were not even saying you have to do the full 30 minutes in one go, you could do:
  • 2 x 15 minute bouts
  • 3 x 10 minute bouts
just to reach the minimum of 30 minutes a day, this can also be as effective as lengthier sessions. If your just beginning then this could be more of a manageable starting point.

Sustain an exercise habit- the easiest way is to incorporate it into your daily routine.
Simple things like:
  • Cycle or Walk to work instead of the bus / car this may not be possible so get off a stop early or park a street away (no excuses)
  • Use stairs instead of the lift- again if your on the top floor of a 25 floor building or more jump off a few floors below (no excuses)
  • Spend more time Gardening or Walking in the park
All these simple things can help increase your energy output.

I know sometimes it can be hard to motivate yourself to be more physically active and it can feel like a chore.
  • Start by changing the way you think about regular exercise
  • Remind yourself that it will make you feel better (it might not seem it at the time but gradually you'll notice it and others will to)
  • It will probably improve the quality and length of your life
  • Most importantly it can be FUN
If you join the Forever Living F.I.T Clean 9 and Forever F.I.T 1,2 you'll get all the help and support you need to learn these simple things and more on your quest for losing weight.

How Important Is Water When Losing Weight?

A short post to give you an insight of how important water is whilst on your quest to losing weight.

An average of 70% of our body is comprised of water. So Water plays a vital role in everything from regulating out body temperature to protecting our organs and tissues.
It also:
  • transports oxygen to your cells
  • removes waste
  • protects your joints and organs



Water also is an integral part in any endeavor to lose weight. In addition to making you feel fuller, water helps you to flush out excess waste and prevent bloating.

Ways you lose Water:
  • urination
  • respiration
  • sweating





If you are active, you lose more water than if you are sedentary. Diuretics such as:
  •  Caffeine
  •  Pills 
  • Alcohol
result in the need to drink more water because they trick your body into thinking you have more water because these trick your body into thinking you have more water than we need.




Drinking at least Eight Glasses (240ml servings) of water each day will allow you to replenish the water you lose, but don't forget to drink an extra bottle after vigorous exercise and heavy perspiration. So an average of 2 litres a day.





5 Facts About Water


  • By the time you feel thirsty you likely have already lost at least 1 litre of your total body water.
  •  Feeling tired of lethargic, a dull, persistent headache, or if your eyes feel dry from your contact lenses are all classic signs of dehydration.
  • Water helps with weight loss, naturally reducing your appetite.
  • Water stops headaches and dizziness. Your headache could be a symptom of being dehydrated so drinking water should make it go away.
  • Water clears your skin. If you have dry skin, drinking water will give it more moisture but that's not all. It also flushes toxins out of your body and anything else that shouldn't be there so it clears your skin of any dirt and bacteria.
So now you know the importance of drinking water when losing weight and naturally.
On the Forever Living F.I.T Clean 9 and Forever F.I.T 1 and 2 Programme you get taught all these useful tips to help maintain a healthier and better YOU. Speak to me about these great weight loss programmes I don't bite only help you succeed every step of the way.
