5 Proven Methods to Lose Weight

5 Proven Methods to Lose Weight
By Michael Casalini

Approximately one billion people in the world are overweight
and Americans are right on top of that list. According the CDC/
National Center for Health Statistics, in 2003-2004,
sixty-percent of adults over age twenty were overweight with
another thirty-two percent in that same category considered
obese. Believe me, those numbers have significantly increased.

Why? It’s because we live a very fast paced society where it’s
just too easy to grab that double meat double cheeseburger with
fries and a soft drink rather than consume a healthy meal. We
simply don’t have the time.

Most of us consume far too many foods and drinks that are high
in fat, cholesterol, sugar, and sodium, consequently exposing
ourselves to the risks of cardio-vascular disease, Type Two
Diabetes, hypertension, stroke, and even some types of cancer.

For those of us who do have the time to eat properly, face it,
we simply like to cheat. Generally speaking, most of us don’t
have the willpower to constantly avoid all the “goodies” that
are so detrimental to our health. We’ve all heard that old
saying” If it tastes good-spit it out!” Well, unfortunately,
that’s probably accurate advice, however, there are a few less
dramatic methods we can employ to sort of “have our cake and eat
it too.”

1. Try to get in the mindset that you really are what you eat
and slowly begin to pay closer attention to what you consume.
Simply changing the way you think is one of the most powerful
ways to improve any area of your life. Take five minutes each
day and visualize yourself as being thinner. Sound silly? Have
you seen the movie” The Secret?” If not, I strongly suggest you
do so. I think you will be surprised at how much difference this
technique will make.

2. Take a sack lunch to work. A turkey sandwich with some
fruit, a protein bar and some diet white tea will be much better
for you than that darned cheeseburger and fries. If that won't
hold you until the whistle blows, have a protein drink in
between instead of raiding the candy machine.

3. Avoid eating foods high in carbohydrates especially three
hours before bedtime. The simple version is the carbs will be
converted into sugars which will more than likely be stored as
fat.

4. Any form of exercise is better than none at all. A fast
paced walk for fifteen to twenty minutes three times per week is
one of the most effective methods to lose weight and does not
pound the body like running or jogging. Being a personal
trainer, I cannot say enough about the benefits of exercise.

5. Drink a glass of water about thirty minutes prior to meals.
This will make you feel full and you may not eat quite so much.
Also, eating smaller portions will, in time, make it more
difficult for you to over eat.

Remember, being overweight is not only undesirable and
unattractive, it is most certainly detrimental to your health.

How To Choose The Right Diet Pill?

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Sun, 05 Apr 2009 23:54:00 +0000

How To Choose The Right Diet Pill?
By Jerry Hall

Diet drugs are available in several different forms, including
prescription drugs, over-the-counter drugs and herbal
supplements.

When choosing a diet pill it is important to understand what
you are getting. There are lots of different types, and each
works in a different way. Non prescription diet pills generally
contain caffeine, which increases heart rate and basal
metabolism and gives you more energy in work outs, which can be
quite effective in weight loss.

Once these pills contained ephedra, which strengthened the
effect on the heart rate and metabolism, but the FDA banned it
in 2003 after proof that ephedra occasionally caused arrhythmia
and sudden death. Now most non prescription diet pills use green
tea, which seems to have an effect on the metabolism and also
slows fat production, or bitter orange, which is a chemical
isolated from citrus fruit. Other common ingredients include
''herbal ephedra'' which is often a plant called hoodia, and
chitosan, which is produced from shellfish and is a mild fat
blocker.

Doctor recommended Diet Pills are available to buy online. You
are asked to complete an online medical questionnaire which is
then passed to a licensed physician who will review your
information and prescribe the appropriate diet pills. The diet
pills are delivered by an overnight Fed ex courier.

There are essentially 8 different diet pills available, with
the most commonly used being the Phentermines. These are sold as
Phentermine, Adipex and Ionamin. Other diet pills include
Xenical, Meridia, Bontril, Tenuate and Didrex. Generally the
phentermines are the cheapest and the most widely used. If you
are going to use them, you must follow the instructions
carefully.

If diet pills are not used in conjunction with a proper weight
loss program incorporating proper diet and exercise, they are
not likely to be effective. Indeed some pills may even disrupt
your system causing weight gain.

4 Things You Need to Know About a Natural Colon Cleanse Process

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 23:39:00 +0000

Colon Cleanse: 4 Things You Need to Know About a Natural Colon
Cleanse Process
By Stacy Keeper

A colon cleanse procedure is often looked on as an essential
means of enabling an individual to get a fair idea about his/her
physical conditioning. A colon cleanse process is often carried
out to get a fair idea on how to keep your colon from getting
excessively damaged in the act. While we all must have overheard
the term colon cleanse on numerous occasions, there are only a
handful individuals, who are actually aware of its true
benefits. Taking cue from the above statement, let us now
discuss a few things that you need to know about colon
cleansing.

A Colon Cleanser Is Natural

The biggest advantage of making use of a colon cleanser is that
it is made from completely natural ingredients. In simple words,
if you have a cleanser which has been recommended by a doctor,
you may be required to reconsider your decision. One of the main
reasons why you need to do this is simply because an "over the
counter" cleanser is often made up of harmful chemicals. Hence,
you need to be very careful even before making use of them. On
the other hand, natural cleaning agents, which are often made
out of herbal ingredients, are supposedly efficient for a
healthy body.

It Is Ideal To Get Rid Of Accumulated Sludge

The second advantage of making use of a natural colon cleansing
supplement is that it has an ability to remove excessive waste
matter from within the large as well as the small intestines of
a human body. Hence, whenever you feel uneasy on your abdominal
region, you need to try and understand that you would be
required to make use of a cleanser to remove the excessive
sludge from within your digestive tract. Owing to your ill
eating habits, a human body often accumulates waste matter in
the form of fecal matter, parasites and plaques, which are very
harmful and need to be removed from within a human digestive
tract.

A Colon Cleanser Can Help You Reduce Weight

The third biggest advantage of opting for a colon cleansing
agent is that you have an added edge when it comes to reducing
your extra kilos the natural way. One of the main reasons why an
individual accumulates excessive pounds is because he/she does
not have the ability to flush harmful toxins from within his/her
digestive tract. After making use of a cleanser, when you begin
to flush the harmful toxins from within your digestive tract,
you would be indirectly helping your body to reduce weight in a
natural way. This is because the waste matter, which is
accumulated within your digestive tract, is nothing but blocked
fecal matter. The moment it is released, you start to get rid of
your excessive pounds in a natural way.

It Is Affordable

While most individuals shy from making use of a cleanser, the
main reason why this happens is because you think it is very
expensive. Well, the truth is far from that. A natural colon
cleansing supplement is in real life very affordable. Not only
can people afford this supplement, they can also use it on a
regular basis. Here again, the usage is directly proportional to
the content of the ingredient. A cleanser is made out of herbal
ingredients. Hence, not only is it perfect for human
consumption, it is also affordable in nature.

Discovery : Psyllium husks

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 00:40:00 +0000

Psyllium seed husks, also known as ispaghula, isabgol, or simply as psyllium, are portions of the seeds of the plant Plantago ovata, (genus Plantago), a native of India and Pakistan. They are soluble in water, expanding and becoming mucilaginous when wet.

Psyllium seed husks are indigestible in human beings and are often used as a source of dietary fiber. They are used to relieve constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease, and diarrhea. They are also used as a regular dietary supplement to improve and maintain regular GI transit. The inert bulk of the husks helps provide a constant volume of solid material irrespective of other aspects of the diet or any disease condition of the gut. Some recent research is also showing them to be promising in lowering cholesterol and controlling diabetes.
source:wikipedia.org

Psyllium is important for many reasons.
Since it contains carbohydrates, it can help diarrhea.
It can help ease the pain of hemorrhoids and cystitis.
- Psyllium Husks have anti-inflammatory properties, and can be beneficial for those with diabetes. In some studies, it has been shown that Psyllium Husk can improve lipid control in Type 2 diabetes.
- aid in weight loss control
- maintains healthy cholesterol levels
- maintains healthy blood pressure levels
- treat IBS, and hemorrhoids.
- treat yeast infections.
- it pushes out mucoid plaque.

Guggulsterones are formed from the extract from a tree,

Top 7 Low Carb Diet Mistakes

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Mon, 09 Mar 2009 23:14:00 +0000

Technorati Profile

Top 7 Low Carb Diet Mistakes - Don't Be Another Low Carb Victim!
By Nick Brighton

Everyone gets to a point during their low carb diet where they
simply feel like throwing in the towel. Why let that be you?
Instead, take notes and learn from others that have laid the
path to a successful low carb diet before you, with these top 7
low carb diet mistakes...

1) False starts!

Low carb diets are not complicated, but they may take a while
to familiarize yourself with. That's why you'll see at the
bottom of this article a link to my resource: Low carb for
beginners. More on that later...

However, if you think it means you can just eat meat all day
(or other low carb myths) or if you don't know where the carbs
are hidden in certain foods, you're setting yourself up for a
miserable failure in your low carb diet. Do your research (or
see the link at the bottom of this article) for a shortcut!

2) "I can't do it, it's not right for me" mentality

There are many ways to launch your own successful low carb
diet. So giving up on it after a few days is insanity.

We all wants results fast, but the reality is that weight loss
of any nature takes time. In fact, it could be a month before
you even notice a consistent shift in your weight loss.

That's why so many people never lose weight - they think "It's
not working, so it's not worth it". The sad reality is, they
were literally weeks from losing a waist size, but just slammed
the door on their future slimming ability. But surely, they have
another go in the future right?

Well, yes and no. The problem is that when this happens,
subconciously you are always going to have that doubt and
negative expectation that you'll never lose weight. So no matter
what you try, you'll never put your heart into it and always cut
the plan short.

A prime example of this is eating too little carbohydrate at
first, suffering carb crash, and deciding low carb isn't for
you. This is a shame, when a simple adjustment can usually get
you through the first week comfortably, to the great rewards at
the end of it.

3) Not Enough Vegetables

Time and time again, people tell me they don't feel good eating
low carb, and it turns out they are eating almost no vegetables
or fruit. This will fail you in the long term.

You should be eating more vegetables than any other food!
Fruit, too, especially fruit low in sugar, has its place in a
complete (and healthy) low carb diet.

4) Lack of fiber

Eating enough vegetables and fruit go a long way towards making
sure you are getting enough fiber in your diet. There are other
low carb sources of fiber as well, and it's important to know
about them.

5) Eating Too Much

Calorie counting is banished from low carb diets, but what
doesn't mean you can throw caution to the wind when it comes to
calorie consumption!

The great thing about low carb eating is that our appetites are
more suppressed, allowing us to eat fewer calories without
getting hungry.

Many people take this as a free ticket to eat MORE because they
are cutting the carbs. This is crazy, you should eat when you
are hungry, and only eat enough to quench your hunger. Don't
just eat more volume for the sake of it! Calories are calories.
The more you shovel down, the fatter you'll become, regardless
of what diet plan you're on!

6) Fail to plan, plan to fail (cliche!)

The most succesfull attribute to a succesful low carb diet is
planning. This simply means adjusting your lifestyle to
accomodate your diet.

Think this is not important? Well, look at it this way. How
often do you have a scheduled snack, a stop at the local drive
thru (perhaps the kid's treat on the weekend), accept
invitations to dinner where carbs are going to be filling you
from head to toe...and all the other things you currently do to
put yourself in front of carbs.

Think about your shopping list, as most people never change
their shopping lists. Where do you shop? Do they have the
adequete low carb options?

Ultimately, make sure that you're not putting yourself further
from the right low carb foods and closer to the high carbs like
before.

I know it sounds easy, but there are probably many habits you
have formed over the years which you might need to take notice
of and start to readjust. Definately something you should think
conciously about before and during the early days of your low
carb diet.

7) Getting stuck in the dieting rut

Let's be honest, we all like a wide selection of food when it
comes to our diets. Nobody likes the same ol crap day after day.

Even on a low carb diet, there is no excuse for eating a wide
variety of foods. As long as you know what has starch and sugar,
you can joyfully skip those options along the way.

Alot of food can have the carbs removed (sort of) by
substituting certain elements of a dish.

Don't just go for what you're told to eat. Variety is the spice
of life (and the key to sticking to an enjoyable diet)

There are other things you should be wary of, but for the
purposes of this article, that should be enough to give you a
clear head start over everyone else.

If you've been on my 7 day course over at
http://lowcarbdietformula.com you'll know what I am talking
about when I say that it's surprising how many hidden pitfalls
there are associated with a low carb diet.

That doesn't mean you'll necessarily fall into them like
everyone else, but believe me, when you're 2 months into your
low carb diet, the last thing you want to do is let just ONE of
these "traps" hinder your previous hard work.

How To Take A Weight Loss Pill Or Nutritional Supplement
By Bobby Hiatt

Weight loss pills can be categorized into either prescription
of non prescription, generally speaking. The prescription pills
are like drugs. They are closely monitored by your physician and
regulated by the FDA. Examples of these pills include Xenical
and Orlistat and undergo clinical testing to document their
effectiveness in their ability to help a person lose weight
while also monitoring possible side effects and other health
risks.

The non prescription pills are considered weight loss
supplements and are available over the counter while needing
only the minimum for FDA approval and regulation. These will
also include the generic categories of herbal weight loss pills,
fat burners and many additional diet supplements.

Weight loss pills aren’t magical, but they can work effectively
when done right. It is recommended to always consult a physician
before investing is an over the counter weight loss pill. They
will be most effective when used in conjunction with a
consistent exercise program and healthy diet plan. Prescription
weight loss pills are specifically designed for those
individuals to be considered clinically obese, as it is a very
serious condition that could justify the risk of any possible
side effects.

The only way to lose weight and keep it off is through
indefinite lifestyle changes: Eat healthier, low-calorie foods,
watch portion sizes, and engage in regular physical activity.
It's certainly no magic pill, but it works.

Many of the pills on the market today will work in one of a few
ways. The first is simply suppressing the appetite to help you
eat less. Some others work to increase your feeling of fullness
after eating. Some of the newest weight loss pills on the market
work by inhibiting the absorption of fat.

If you think you are a candidate for taking a weight loss pill,
either prescription or non prescription, here are some
guidelines to follow.

• Consult your physician regarding any pill you may wish to
take. Your Doctor will be able to consult you regarding existing
medical conditions and how your body might react to the product.

• Monitor yourself. Be aware of physical changes and journal
how quickly you might be losing weight.

• Always follow the instructions and do not take more that the
recommended dosage. You won’t get faster results by taking more
pills or taking them more frequently.

• For the best results, make changes to your daily life
routine. You will get the best result when you take the weight
loss pills in conjunction with a healthy diet and a consistent
physical fitness program. This will be the best way to keep the
weight off once you reach you goals.

You can get great results supplementing a weight loss pill with
the combination of a healthy eating program and fitness plan. It
might be a good way to kick start your weight loss and get you
on the road to a healthier more active lifestyle. Follow these
guidelines regarding the use of weight loss pills and ensure
safe effective results

Abdomen fat

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 23:32:00 +0000

Abdominal fat

is either visceral (surrounding the abdominal organs) or subcutaneous (lying between the skin and the abdominal wall). Fat located behind the abdominal cavity, called retroperitoneal fat, is generally counted as visceral fat. Several studies indicate that visceral fat is most strongly correlated with risk factors such as insulin resistance, which sets the stage for type 2 diabetes. Some research suggests that the deeper layers of subcutaneous fat may also be involved in insulin resistance (in men but not in women).

Abdominal fat is associated with metabolic syndrome, a cluster of symptoms that increases the risk for heart disease and diabetes. The syndrome is diagnosed when someone has at least three of the following: abdominal obesity, high triglycerides, low levels of high-density liprorotein ("good") cholesterol, high blood pressure and increased levels of sugar in the blood.

Abdominal fat loss is a 50% exercise, 50% nutrition combination.Regardless of how much you workout, if the number of calories you take in is greater than the amount you burn,you’ll still put on abdominal fat.Eat natural, low fat, low sugar, low calorie foods in small servings throughout the day.Losing fat takes time, so get started now! Be patient and don’t expect to get "ultra lean" overnight.

Lady Doctor Gets Death Threats for Revealing TOP SECRET Fat Loss Secret to General Public!

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 21:46:00 +0000

A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to forever shed countless pounds, stay healthy, and add many years to your life!

A lady doctor from Arizona has blown the lid off the best-kept secret in weight loss ever discovered -- and this has the whole diet food and drug industries turned upside down and in nothing less than a torrential uproar.

Her name is Dr Suzanne Gudakunst, and she's marching to the beat of a different drum.

And no, nothing about her "secret" is difficult -- nor does it require that you do something completely out of the ordinary or anything unnatural.

Instead, the Arizonian boasts proudly "...this is something that I caught onto just before 2002 when there was so much research and exploration going around concerning the human colon and digestive system working in harmony with nutritional absorption, and I started doing independent studies just to test things at first ... but which I later expanded on after seeing some fantastic results."

This same woman medical practitioner went on to accurately determine a definitive correlation between harmful plague and parasitic infestations of the human bowel tract, and people suffering chronic obesity -- and who despite intense diet and exercise appeared to be unable to lose any weight whatsoever.

Over the course of six years the Arizona doctor developed a number of natural treatments for the removal of these same harmful, even life-threatening plaques and rapidly reproducing digestive parasites -- and when applied to even worse-case patients suffering extreme obesity (98% of which were in immediate danger of dying) she saw a 100% effectiveness and success rate.

She then borrowed from her research on the severely obese, and applied the same strategies on milder cases of overweight persons -- only to find the same effectiveness and quality results as described above (although the individual weight loss per subject wasn't nearly as much as those obese patients 100 lbs to 200 lbs or more overweight).

So powerful is her secret that she's able to reverse diabetes, rid illness altogether in people suffering from cancer (linked directly to poor diet and overweight factors), as well as an elimination of an entire spectrum of serious and otherwise life-threatening diseases.

Nearly 100% of all her case subjects were told in the alternative by "conventional doctors" that they either had just months or years to live, or they would never live a life anything resembling remotely a "normal" existence -- yet after applying Dr Suzanne's treatments saw a complete contradiction to others doctors' prognoses.

Again, nothing about her secret is unnatural or requires someone to do any major action or modification in their lives.

In fact, her entire treatment is based completely on built-into-nature 'protection agents' scattered throughout the world in the form of select herbs, extracts, and organic constituents, and which can be found in a variety of plants -- but when combined in specific combinations and carefully chosen amounts make for a solution to what is perhaps the world's worst ever plague: OBESITY (and the illnesses and diseases resulting from it -- or at least severely aggravated or exacerbated by it).

Now to everyone else's great gain, whether suffering from just a few extra pounds and inches, to those extremely fat and overweight, this brave, bold lady doctor is releasing to the general public her secret for forever destroying the tight unrelenting closed-fist of obesity's stronghold over the now more than 40% of Americans labeled obese, and others worldwide.

But she's not promising any of us for how long.

Some experts and sociologists suggest that in the bigger scheme of things, the world will never tolerate a discovery of such magnitude, any more than it would be realistic to expect a car that runs on water (even if very real) to ever become commercially available to the general public for day-to-day use.

One well-respected and famous diet & wellness author wrote years ago that if anyone ever "truly unlocked the keys to permanent fat loss, they may actually suffer the same fate as JFK."

It is currently available at:

Top Secret Fat Loss Secret.

so you may want to head on over there now and get it and before someone or "something" gets it forever yanked out of ever getting in YOUR hand at least.

It's in a very easily readable format and is quickly and readily understood and mastered by anyone with even a 4th grade reading level.

While you're there, why not scroll down and review for yourself the huge successes others are now having with this incredible breakthrough in rapid, massive weight loss and extremely improved and enhanced health, now made freely available to the rest of us?

How to Think Yourself Thin

How to Think Yourself Thin
by Lynn Peterson
The secret about "The Secret" is that it's no secret. No, I'm not being cute with a play on words. Basically, the secret is that whatever we think manifests itself in our lives. It is called the "law of attraction."
I am sure you have heard about the law of attraction and how it people have used it to turn their lives around.
What does this have to do with you? Well, if you've been struggling with your weight -- trying to lose those pounds that make your clothes feel too tight and make you ashamed to look at the mirror, then "The Secret" might be exactly what you need.
So far you've used the law of attraction to manifest your favorite pizza, nachos, or whatever your weakness food is that you fantasize about.
Our thoughts today become our reality tomorrow. If we allow our thoughts to focus on bad things, then those bad things will enter our lives. We are attracting them to us.
If when you think about happiness you think about food, then your experience will be that to be happy you must eat. See, it's not the food that makes you happy. It's your thoughts about the food.
So how does this apply to weight loss and a new thinner you?
Start attracting a thin new you to yourself. That's right, think about being happy and thin. Think about the good feeling you will have when people give you compliments about your weight loss.
Contrast this with the thoughts of a fat person. Usually the fat person will obsess about food, hunger, (or worse) how bad they look or feel. So what is a fat person's reality? More food, more hunger, and bad looks or feelings.
Observe the thoughts in your head right now after reading that last paragraph. Come on. Write them down. Force yourself to look at the programming running in your head.
Put "The Secret" to work for you. Write down and visualize yourself being thin, feeling fit, and enjoying exercise.
Think about how good you are going to feel with your pants or skirt feeling loose. Think about the compliments you will get about your weight loss. Think about how good you are going to feel after you walk 30 minutes on the treadmill.
Control your thought and you will control your life. Use the law of attraction to attract the body you want and need.

If you need to lose weight quickly Lynn Peterson shares her secrets in a free report that teaches you the best exercise to lose weight at UltimateFatBurningPlan.com.

100 Painless Ways to Cut Calories

100 Painless Ways to Cut Calories

"Losing weight can be as simple as cutting out a meatball here and an egg roll there." ~~Elizabeth Somer, M.A., R.D.

REACHING YOUR FAT-LOSS GOALS may be easier than you think. To lose a pound of fat a month, all you need to do is cut 100 calories a day from your diet, assuming the intake and expenditure of all other calories remains the same. That's because a pound of body fat is equivalent to about 3,500 calories. So if you cut 100 calories a day for 31 days, you're cutting 3,100 calories--or about a pound.

Wait...a pound a month? Isn't that a little slow? Well, mounds of research indicate that you're more likely to keep weight off if you lose it slowly. Besides, losing a pound a month doesn't require drastic changes in your eating habits. It can be as simple as eating two egg rolls with your Chinese stir-fry instead of three. Here are 100 painless ways to cut 100 or more calories a day. As a bonus, they all reduce fat or sugar, which means, calorie for calorie, you're getting more vitamins and minerals.

Why do so many people fail at losing weight?

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Sun, 11 May 2008 01:19:00 +0000

Why do so many people fail at losing weight?

Is it because they are lazy? No. Is it because they are addicted to food? No. Is it because they aren’t good at exercising? No. Failure at weight loss stems from a few main factors:

1) People don't truly understand the risks of being overweight. Why do most want to lose weight? Most would say to look better. Looking better certainly is a benefit of losing weight, but this shouldn’t be the sole reason to lose weight. There is a 1000 pound gorilla in the room and it’s often ignored. Being overweight for a long period of time kills thousands of people each year. Thousands of studies have show and proven without any doubt that losing body fat will improve and lengthen your life. This eBook will give you a picture of the dangers of being overweight. Knowing the dangers of being overweight is a tremendous motivator to not only lose fat, but to keep it off.

2) People don't commit to permanent lifestyle changes. So many people think of a "diet" as something temporary. When they are on a "diet" they restrict themselves so much that they are miserable. Sooner or later failure is inevitable because of the unreasonable demands of most "diets." Some of these diets force you to only eat certain foods (e.g., no carbs, special soups etc…) You, like myself, have probably tried them before. The key to losing weight long term is to make gradual lifestyle changes you can stick to forever.

3) Most individuals are not provided the truthful facts of losing weight and becoming healthier. With the conflicting information in the media, and all of the different lose weight quick fad diets, it’s understandable why so many people really don’t know the truth about losing fat and keeping it off long term. We will go over the no-nonsense truth.

4) Most people don't understand they are constantly either gaining fat, or losing fat. There is no in-between. Some people justify binging or giving up because they hit a small road-block. This isn’t an all or nothing game. For example, when I was overweight, if I ate an unhealthy lunch, I’d go ahead and eat an unhealthy dinner since I already "messed up" the day. Or I’d say, I’ll start eating healthy on Monday since I’ve already eaten poorly this weekend. Every person at times eats too much. The successful people will not let a road bump completely derail their entire lifestyle change. If you are not implementing positive lifestyle changes and losing weight, you are gaining weight. Again, there is no "in-between."

5) Most people don't realize what they consume each day. So many overweight people eat thousands of extra calories and fat without realizing it. It’s tough to know if you are gaining weight or losing weight each day unless you are keeping an eye on what you’re consuming. Later in the eBook you will be given an easy way to keep track of your consumption.

How To Lose Weight Without Hurting Yourself

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 06:46:00 +0000

How To Lose Weight Without Hurting Yourself by Pawel Reszka
Does panting on the treadmill give you nightmares? For many, the prospect of losing weight can be a scary thing. However, it's important to first understand that there are many ways to lose weight, without having to exhaust oneself totally.
Myths of weight loss:
There are some popular misconceptions associated with weight loss. Before you actually start an exercise regimen, it's important to remove all pre-conceived notions. We have listed out some of the most popular ones:
Myth 1: Ab exercises flatten the stomach.
Fact: Ab exercises only tone and firm the lower layers of stomach muscle. If you happen to have layers of fat above, it won't make any difference. Therefore do aerobic exercises to shed the fat.
Myth 2: Drinking water before exercise is harmful.
Fact: Water is essential to replenish fluids lost during strenuous exercise. Therefore, drink water in equal amounts.
Myth 3: Eliminating fats helps shed weight faster.
Fact: Fats in small amounts can help you feel fuller during the day. This avoids binging.
Myth 4: High protein, low carb diets burn fat faster.
Fact: Ingesting too much protein can result in high fat and cholesterol levels in the body. Too many carbohydrates in the diet can result in the formation of Ketones which lead to kidney stones. The trick lies in a balanced diet.
Myth 5: One can lose weight no matter what one eats.
Fact: Not watching what's eaten can lead to alarming weight increases
Myth 6: Skipping meals burns fat quickly.
Fact: When you skip meals, your body goes into a conservation mode where its metabolic rate starts dipping, resulting in weight gains.
Myth 7: Weight training doesn't shed weight.
Fact: Weight training can actually be a great way to lose weight in a short time span.
Myth 8: Consuming nuts and dairy products can be fattening.
Fact: If taken in small doses, nuts can actually be good for health.
Myth 9: Counting calories isn't really necessary.
Fact: It is absolutely necessary to keep track of everything you eat "" right from sugar to tea or even snacks.
Myth 10: Salads are a great health snack.
Fact: Yes salads are great but not with the fatty dressing.
Cardio to help shed fat It has been clinically proven that cardio exercise is your one and only ticket to effective and quick fat loss. Cardio exercises involve any form of exercise that raises heart rate to higher levels. Especially when it comes to fat loss goals, the higher the intensity, the greater the chances of your slimming down quicker!
Why high intensity cardio is so great There are many reasons why cardio helps shed weight fast:
- High intensity cardio rapidly raises your metabolic rate - This increased metabolic rate remains at the same rate even after exercise - Increases lean muscle mass which contributes to increased resting metabolic levels
Other benefits include: - Greater lung strength - Strengthens your heart - Improves blood circulation.
Timing and its impact The best time of the day for any cardio exercise is early in the morning, before you've had any breakfast. This is because in the morning hours, muscle and liver glycogen levels are really low. This means that with lower blood sugar levels, your chances at burning fat at this time is much more than later in the day.
Top 5 cardio exercises to shed fat If you think a 30 minute morning walk at moderate pace will help, then you're wrong. While it certainly will help you lose more calories over a period of time, if you're looking for fat loss - you need something extra!
1.Jump rope: On an average if you jump rope for 15 minutes you burn 174 calories!
2.Swimming: The forward crawl stroke seems to burn fat the best and it's also non-impact.
3.Sprinting: It will burn tons of calories, beats fat like none other and reduces stress and tension in the body.
4.Step aerobics: Burns a whopping 400 calories in a 30 minute time span.
5.Cycling: It exhausts carbohydrate reserves in the body resulting in enhanced metabolic rates.

Stop Dieting if you want to lose weight

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 06:28:00 +0000

Stop Dieting if you want to lose weight by Terry Sandhu

Obesity and weight related problems are on the increase and show no signs of slowing down. Why is this happening when you have a market saturated with diets and weight loss products? It's simple, the majority of diets and products will not and cannot work for you. How can i say this? Just look around you and you will see what i mean.
Look for weight loss products on the internet and you will see hundreds of companies making ridiculous claims about the products that they are trying to offload onto you. In their adverts they will throw in words like:
Amazing, New, Fantastic, Incredible, Revolutionary, Astonishing, Astounding, Guaranteed, Breakthrough, Scientific, Extraordinary.
These words are meant to appeal to your desperation to lose weight, and sadly they often result in people handing over their money for products which are never going to work for them. Try to think of how many weight loss products you or people you know have purchased in the past that haven't worked. I'm sure you will know what I am talking about.
You will also find that many companies offer endorsements and scientific data from so called medical professionals. Most of these professionals are well paid for their endorsements. Think about it, if I said to you that I would pay you ten thousand dollars just for saying my product was great, would you refuse to take my money?
People see these extraordinary claims and think "wow! This could work for me; look at all the scientific evidence". So they hand over their cash and in a month or so they find themselves back to square one.
If you look closely you will find these words hidden away somewhere in the advertisement "results may vary". You will often have to look hard for these words, but I can assure you that they will be there.
This absolves companies of any responsibility if the product doesn't work for you. If they are so sure that they can deliver what their advertisements promise why do they need to add these words? They do it because they know that what they are selling is not going to work for the majority and if you complain they can say "it does say in the small print that results could vary".
Be very way of companies that promise you miraculous results because weight loss doesn't come under the realm of miracles. The fact behind weight loss is a simple one:
Burning more Calories than you Consume equals Weight Loss
There is no new method or product that will change the formula above. It has always been that way and it will always be that way, regardless of what people try to sell you.
The main problem that people have is not losing weight, but keeping the weight off. The very word 'diet' conjures up something of a temporary nature. You go on a diet for a certain length of time, maybe lose some weight, you feel happier, and then you come off it. Soon the weight comes back, and you go through the same process again and again, until you finally just give up.
Diets are a temporary answer for an ongoing problem, it's almost impossible to lose weight permanently through traditional dieting methods. The reason why dieting will never work in the long term is because most diets are based on a large cutback in calories. If you are used to a certain lifestyle it stands to reason that any drastic change will be an unexpected shock to your body and mind. This is why it is so hard to stick to a diet.
If you take up running, do you think you would be capable of running marathons in a couple of months. Your body and your mind will need time to adjust to what you are doing. When it comes to losing weight people expect to see long lasting results in a short time. This is never going to happen as you are not giving yourself the time to adjust to the new methods.
If you are used to eating 4000 calories a day and you drop down to 2000 a day, what do you think will happen? You may struggle through for a week or two but your body and your mind will fight you every step of the way until you give up and go back to eating 4000 calories a day.
If however if you were to just cut your calories by 250-400 a day, it would be much easier as it won't come as such a shock to your body. It will accept this change because it's not too difficult. After about a month or so your body and your mind will get used to this loss of calories, and then you make another small adjustment.
If you want to lose weight successfully and for good, you need to do it in small steps, any other way and you will eventually fail. There is no magic method that is going to help you to lose weight, so do yourself and your wallet a favour and stop looking one. Accept this and then you will be able to lose weight without torturing yourself.
Forget all the fad diets and all the rash promises that companies make to you. You won't get any company keeping in touch with you about your progress after you have purchased their product. You're on your own and if it doesn't work for you, remember they did mention somewhere that results could vary.
Deep down you and I both know that losing weight can be difficult and it is not something that you will succeed at in a matter of weeks. You didn't get to where you are in a few weeks so accept the fact that it's going to take you time to get to where you want to be.

Sexuality and Your Aching Back

noreply@blogger.com (sunshine) — Wed, 03 Oct 2007 22:09:00 +0000

It’s not uncommon for backaches to interfere with an individual’s love life. Often, when speaking to their doctor, people with back pain are reluctant to discuss how it affects their sexual activity. But if you find that backaches — or fears of re-injuring your back — put a damper on your sex life, ask your doctor for advice.

Here are a few suggestions that might also be helpful:

Talk openly with your partner about your concerns.
Avoid arching your spine backward. Try to keep your spine straight or bent slightly forward.
When bending forward, be sure to bend your knees. Bending forward while keeping your knees straight puts a lot of pressure on your lower back.
Avoid lying on your stomach or your back with your legs flat on the bed and extended straight out. If you can, keep your hips flexed to take some pressure off your lower back.
Try positions that are easier on your back, such as lying on your side with your hips and your knees slightly bent.
Be judicious and gentle. If your back is bothering you, don’t aim for long, vigorous, gymnastic lovemaking.
Making love in the water — in a pool or hot tub — can take some of the stress off your back since water is buoyant and offers support.
Be patient. Don’t try to resume sex too soon after having a backache. If you find that your back hurts when you resume sexual activity, wait a few days before trying again.

I would highly suggest that you read my stubborn fat solutions report (and you think you have stubborn fat) and to avoid alcohol for at least two weeks while your detoxify your liver and get started on a friendly fat burning environment.

Follow the European model; eat some fat or protein with your wine. The more food you have in your belly the slower the absorption. It also aids in insulin regulation. Avoid high carbohydrates snack with alcohol. It carries many metabolic problems like insulin elevation and high fat levels in your blood stream.

According to nutrition author Ori Hofmelkere if you are going to consume alcohol red wine is the best and beer is the worst.

Some common problems with alcohol consumption are:

Reduced testosterone, developement of additional estrogen, problems with hydration and Inability to absorb vital nutrients

In summary, I would suggest eating an anti-estrogenic, well- balanced diet and minimize alcohol consumption until you reach your fat loss goals. This will also aid in your quest for a set of six pack abs.

Boozing Harms Losing Belly Fat

Boozing Harms Losing Belly Fat
David Grisaffi

As we attempt to cope and deal with the pressures in our lives, alcohol consumption is becoming too much of the norm. We release our stress sometimes via an alcoholic beverage or two without thinking about the cause and effect it can have on your waist line, appetite and overall health.

I am not here to bash having a drink or two, but I am going to encourage anyone who wants to lose body fat to rethink their drinking habits.

First and foremost, alcohol is a poison and your body must fight to get it out of your system. It directly impairs liver function thus severely hampering your metabolism of fat. If fat loss is your main goal moderation is a key. I have trained many adults who like there nightly beverage, but they never or rarely lose body fat. I would suggest limiting alcohol consumption to once a week if fat loss is your goal.

When your liver is processing alcohol it will stop all other metabolic functions. It will do so until it rids your body of ethanol toxicity which is the by product of alcoholic consumption. This process leads many times to stubborn fat, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and syndrome X.
Drinking in excess will also contribute to fat gain not loss. If you think you are going to gain muscle mass while drinking think again! Your liver is to0 busy doing something it does not want to do, process alcohol instead of amino acids. In addition, alcohol reduces testosterone.

We have not even touched on how many extra calories alcohol consumption can add to your daily caloric intake. As my good friend Tom Venuto states, "Those calories add up so quickly." Think about how much you consume and the caloric value of each drink. Alcohol contains 7 calories per gram. This is almost twice that of carbohydrates and protein and just under the 9 grams per calorie for fat. Here is an example: consuming 2-3 drinks a day can add up to over 400 calories extra each and every day. Multiply that by one week and you are over 2700 calories extra. That is over a half a pound.
According to studies drinking alcohol increases visceral adipose tissue. This is the fat around your body organs. NOT HEALTHY! Other studies suggest alcohol consumption increases and stimulates appetite. I remember when I went through my Nutrition and Lifestyle Courses, alcohol was an afternoon subject and I recall this sobering thought, "If you really want to piss off your entire digestive system and set your body up for a total metabolic nightmare, drink alcohol before you eat."

Another item I have learned from Tom Venuto was the simple but often overlooked factor that by doing something everyday becomes habit-forming behavior. The daily routine of consuming an innocent evening drink will lead to the ill affects of alcohol consumption.

Consuming alcohol again stops all fat burning, adds extra calories, increases estrogen level (stubborn fat), increases appetite and makes you more easily persuaded to eat that entire cheese cake.

There are some simple guidelines you can follow that will not only help you stay on the fat burning path, but will encourage better overall health.

Drinking red wine is much better for you then drinking beer. Red wine contains some good things that can benefit your health. On the other hand consuming beer, which contains hops and are highly estrogenic, will lead to more fat gain and harder fat loss.

Romaine Salad With Pita Crisps and Sesame

Makes 6 first-course servings
The diminutive pine nut is a strong ally in the weight-loss battle. These ivory-colored gems contain the monounsaturated fats and the fiber you need to resist a snack attack. Removing the stubborn nuts from the inside of a pinecone is difficult work, which makes them somewhat expensive — but they're worth it.

Ingredients
2 whole-wheat pitas (6" diameter)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, divided
3 tablespoons pine nuts
2 teaspoons sesame seeds
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, crushed through a press
1/8 teaspoon ground paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 cups sliced romaine lettuce
1 cup chopped red and green bell peppers
1 cup whole small radishes
1 cup cucumber chunks
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 green onions, whites sliced 1/2" thick and greens sliced 1" thick
To Make:Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Split the pitas in half to form circles. Place the rounds rough side up on a baking sheet and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon oregano. Place the pine nuts and sesame seeds in a small baking pan or ovenproof skillet.
Bake the pitas for 5 minutes, without turning, until crisp and toasted. Bake the pine nuts and sesame seeds for 10 minutes, stirring twice, until browned. Remove from the oven. Leave the pitas on the baking sheet. Tip the nuts and seeds into a bowl. Let both cool.
When the pitas are cooled, break into rough 1" chunks.
In the bottom of a large salad bowl, use a fork to mix the oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, salt, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon oregano. Add the romaine, bell peppers, radishes, cucumber, parsley, and green onions. Toss to mix well. Add the toasted pitas and the pine nuts and sesame seeds; toss again.
