Diabetes - A Threat You Can Control!

You can control diabetes by reducing fat oriented food

What is Diabetes or Diabetes Mellitus?

Diabetes mellitus is a disorder of glucose (sugar) metabolism caused by inadequate production or use of insulin. Insulin is a hormone produced in the pancreas that allows sugar (glucose) to enter body cells, where it is used for energy. It also helps the body store extra sugar in muscle, fat, and liver cells where it can be released and used for energy when needed. Diabetes develops if the body does not produce enough insulin or does not use insulin properly. Most of the food we eat are converted into glucose or sugar for our bodies to use for energy.

What is type 1 diabetes?

Type 1 diabetes is a lifelong disease that occurs when the pancreas stops producing insulin. Insulin lets blood sugar also known as glucose enter the body's cells, where it is used for energy. Lack of insulin results in the inability to metabolize glucose, this cause the amount of sugar in the blood rises above a safe level, resulting to a condition known as Hypoglycemia. Over time, high blood sugar can damage blood vessels and nerves throughout your body and increase your risk of eye, heart, blood vessel, nerve, and kidney diseases. If your blood sugar level becomes very high, a life-threatening chemical imbalance (diabetic ketoacidosis) can develop.

Hypoglycemia or High Blood Sugar is a condition of excessive amount of sugar that circulates in the blood plasma. The symptoms of hypoglycemia include weakness, shakiness, nervousness, anxiety, fainting, dehydration, unexplained weight loss and dizziness. Hypoglycemia is the result of excess of insulin, due either to an overdose of insulin hormone in the case of a person with diabetes mellitus or to the body's overproduction of insulin. The lack of Insulin results in the inability to metabolize glucose and the capacity to store up glycogen, a form of glucose.

Type 1 Diabetes is also referred to as juvenile diabetes and/or insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). It is referred to as juvenile diabetes because it often develops in children and young adults and also insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) because insulin injections must be taken daily respectively.

About 5% to 10% of all people with diabetes have type 1.Type 2 diabetes is the most common type of diabetes; other forms of the disease include gestational and secondary diabetes.

What are the symptoms?

The following are the symptoms and occasionally, some people notice symptoms after an illness, such as the flu. They may think the diabetes symptoms are related to the flu and not seek medical care early.

The symptoms of diabetes are

° Being very thirsty
° Urinating often
° Feeling very hungry or tired
° Losing weight without trying
° Having sores that heal slowly
° Having dry, itchy skin
° Hosing the feeling in your feet or having tingling in your feet
° Having blurry eyesight
° Loss of appetite, abdominal pain, and vomiting.
° A strong, fruity breath odor (similar to nail polish remover or acetone).
° Fast and shallow breathing.

How is it treated?

Treatment for Type 1 Diabetes focuses on keeping blood sugar levels within a target range. Treatment requires:

° Taking daily insulin injections.
° Proper Weight management
° Eating a healthy diet that spreads carbohydrate throughout the day.
° Monitoring blood sugar levels at home.
° Getting regular exercise.

There are a range of health and weight management programs that provides Cellular Nutrition through a complete nutritional program that includes all of the essential micro-nutrients, eating a balanced diet and avoiding the excesses known to be harmful in the marketplace. Consult with your physician or dietician to recommend the appropriate program that meets your needs.

Part 2 of the 7 Ways to Find Time for Fitness By Bill Phillips

Here is the second part of the 7 Ways to Find Time for Fitness” written by Bill Phillips. Please enjoy.

Okay…here are my 7 ways to find time for fitness!

Tip #1: WATCH LESS TV

Although watching television can be a great way to unwind after a hectic day, laugh out loud, or even learn something new, it is, generally, the biggest time vampire in modern society. The average American spends 30 hours a week watching TV (and people say they can't even find 4 hours a week to exercise!). For the most part, most people are completely "indifferent" about what they watch on the boob tube. Most sitcoms don't present interesting situations nor good comedy, and the vast majority of news broadcasts are comprised of reports that are absolutely irrelevant to the majority of us.

What TV actually does is hypnotize you -- think about what you look like when you're sitting there on the couch watching TV: you're literally staring off into space, thinking about nothing, accomplishing nothing, and being nothing. Now, you don't have to give up television altogether to find extra time you can use to accomplish much more productive things, like building a fantastic physique. Just use discretion! Every time you turn on the TV, ask yourself, "Could this time be better spent doing something else?" Most of the time, the answer will be, "Yes!"

Tip #2: PLAN AHEAD!

One of the best (and simplest) time-saving techniques I've discovered is to plan your day ahead of time. For example, make a "Major Outcome Activity" list each night. Write down the things you know you need to accomplish the next day which matter -- things that produce a "major outcome." Include working out, taking your supplements, and eating when you're supposed to on this list. Then, keep your list with you throughout the day and "check off" items as you complete them. If you have no idea what you're going to do tomorrow until tomorrow comes, you waste a lot of time reacting, adjusting, and trying to figure out what to do, when to do it, or how to do it. But, when you plan ahead, you can eliminate a lot of unnecessary problems, and you'll be amazed at how smoothly things go. Of course, you can't plan everything, but by scheduling your day, which takes only a few minutes, you can easily pick up an hour a day (if not more!).

Tip #3: EXERCISE REGULARLY!

This is a great example of the "perceived problem" being the "ultimate solution." You see, those who believe they don't have time to exercise because they are so darn busy actually don't have time to not exercise! Let me explain…

It's a scientifically proven fact that the right amount of exercise gives you more energy! (Now remember, if you exercise too much, you can actually end up run down and burned out! A good, brief, intense weight-training workout should stimulate your muscles, not annihilate them!) When you have more energy, you get more things done, faster!

If you're anything like me, you've experienced days when you just can't seem to get anything done. Projects that should be taking you an hour to complete end up taking all day! Low energy is an epidemic in our society, but the good news is, exercise is part of the cure! Not only does exercise help give you more energy, it has also been scientifically proven to improve the quality of sleep, which means when you hit the sack, you'll have less difficulty arriving at destination dreamland, and you'll wake up with a renewed sense of power.

Believe me on this one, folks -- I've learned the hard way if you're trying to save time by skipping workouts, hoping you'll get more work done, you're making a colossal mistake! Do not, under any circumstances, skip workouts in an effort to save time. This "quasi solution" will backfire; I guarantee it! When you work out regularly, you'll not only have more energy but also greater self-confidence, a higher level of "certainty," and you'll just, quite simply, be more effective at everything you do! Investing three or four hours a week in rigorous exercise will yield "double dividends" -- you'll get "paid back" with an extra six to eight hours a week!

Tip #4: CONSUME A NUTRITIOUS DIET!

Another excuse I hear frequently from people who can't get in shape is they don't have time to "eat right." The fact is, today, "eating right" is a lot easier than it used to be. Thanks to modern advances in nutritional science, a healthy, high-protein, nutrient-rich, low-fat meal can be consumed in the form of a meal-replacement shake (the better ones taste like milk shakes) or convenient nutrition bars (that taste almost as good as candy bars).

When you provide your body with a constant supply of the nutrients it needs to stay healthy and strong, you have consistent energy throughout the day. (You can avoid those midafternoon slumps and "premature fatigue.") Once again, as is the case with regular exercise, adhering to a proper nutrition program saves time -- it doesn't rob you of time!

It really doesn't take a lot of time to follow a proper bodybuilding nutrition program; in fact, I probably spend less time each day preparing and consuming my five or six healthy, nutrient-rich meals than millions of people do sitting around in restaurants waiting to be served just one high-calorie, low-nutrient meal. (By the way, if you eat out at restaurants more than a couple times a week, there's a great place to eliminate some "mega empty time" and convert it to "power time," which you can put to good use!)

Tip #5: ELIMINATE MINDLESS PHONE CHITCHAT!

Pressed for time? Well, get off the phone! In any given day, most people blow at least an hour on irrelevant phone chitchat. This is especially true in the business world. I will do almost anything to avoid phone conversations -- I do the vast majority of my business communication with faxes and memos. Through this strategy, I'm able to get right to the point. You just put it down on paper and ink, and it's done.

Personal phone conversations (like most business calls) are almost as bad as TV -- they're just something most people do to stay comfortable -- to stay occupied or feel busy.

If you insist on spending time on the phone, do so only while you walk on a treadmill or ride a stationary bike -- at least you'll be accomplishing something productive. Alternatively, keep a timer by your phone and set it for five minutes. When the timer goes off, your call time is over. It's simple but remarkably effective. Try it.

Oh… and for those of you who think your relatives and friends "need" you to call them every day to "stay in touch," remember this -- nothing has more impact than sincere, appreciative, written words. One card or letter a week and one phone call will be significantly more appreciated and have more impact than "daily calls." (Caution: Mothers excluded -- you talk to your mom whenever she wants, got that?!)

Tip #6: HAVE A SENSE OF URGENCY!

Some people do things so damn slowly it drives me crazy! If they just picked up the pace a bit (or a lot) and pushed themselves -- if they approached each task with a sense of urgency, they would be remarkably more efficient at everything and could free up at least an hour a day.

An analogy you might be able to relate to is the way football teams perform the last two minutes of the first half (after the two-minute warning) or at the end of a game. All of a sudden, everything becomes "ultra urgent," and the next thing you know, they're moving up and down the field -- piling up yardage and points at a rate significantly greater than what they did the rest of the game. (That's the "pace" you should keep all day!)

Try approaching your tasks in the business world (or in school or at home) with a sense of urgency -- with an "I must get it done as fast and efficiently as possible" attitude -- and you'll storm through projects with greater expediency than you thought possible! Heck… if you apply this principle, you might just get a promotion at work, or if you own your own business, it's a surefire formula for increasing profits!

Tip #7: DON'T GET SICK!

Okay, now I'm just being completely unrealistic, right? Not hardly! The fact is, if you won't make the time to be well, you'll be forced to make the time to be sick!

By incorporating exercise, proper nutrition, and the regular use of supplements into your lifestyle, you can significantly improve your health. Applying this "tip" has allowed me to not miss a day of work for an illness-related reason (knock on wood) in eight years, which is good because I don't have time to get sick!

If you try to "cut corners" in any of these areas, in hopes of freeing up time, your efforts will backfire, and you'll find yourself down for the count. Nothing is more counterproductive than spending two days in bed, sick with the flu or some avoidable, sub-clinical virus that's making its way around the office or gym!

CONCLUSION

As you can clearly see, the all-too-common excuse, "I don't have time to get in shape right now…" is simply a misperception, not a reality. What thousands of people have discovered is that by being very conscious about how they spend their time, they're able to get more done, faster; look and feel better; and even enjoy life more! And, as an added bonus, they don't have to waste time feeling guilty or making excuses for why they don't work out and eat right -- that, in and of itself, could free up a few hours a week for some folks!

All right, now you know what to do to find time -- apply these tips, and you'll be amazed how much they can change your life for the better!

7 Ways to Find Time for Fitness By Bill Phillips

I got an e-mail from Seeds of Success earlier on today and I came across an article entitled “7 Ways to Find Time for Fitness” written by Bill Phillips. The contents were so empowering that I wanted to share it with all my readers. I will split this post into two because of its length. Enjoy the first post of the 7 Ways to Find Time for Fitness. Here it is below.

The reason it's so hard to get, and stay, in great shape is because we are all just so incredibly busy. We've got work, friends, family, etc., etc. Every single day there is so much to do -- so much going on! Obviously, those who are successful at transforming their health and maintaining good physical fitness have a lot less going on in their lives than we do, right?

Well, as much as we might like to believe a lack of time is what's preventing us from building a lean, strong, healthy, body, the truth is, that isn't the case. Believe it or not, people who are successful (and I mean remarkably successful in this endeavor) have exactly 24 hours in every day, just like you and I do.

Yes…I know…sometimes it's hard to believe, but it's a fact -- there's not a single person on the planet who has figured out how to make a day longer than 1,440 minutes. And, in reality, folks who experience extraordinary success in the area of health and fitness are usually just as busy as we are -- their lives are hectic; they have careers, families, friends, and obligations; and unexpected obstacles and problems pop up in their lives as well.

So why does it so often feel like we don't have time to eat right and exercise? I've been forced to ponder that query often because it is by far and away the most popular excuse given for why so many people "can't" make a commitment to building a better body.

So what's the answer? Well, some say "not having enough time to exercise" is simply a cop out for people who are lazy and don't really want to look or feel better. But, after having the opportunity to work with thousands of people over the years who really want to get in great shape and are some of the hardest working people I've ever met; I don't think "laziness" is the primary culprit here. I've discovered most people simply don't understand how to "create time," and, therefore, they've bought into the "perception" that they are too busy. (Remember, perception can become reality) Most people just don't understand how possible it is to find the time to invest in building a healthy, energized body.

The great news is, we all have time to make regular exercise and good nutrition part of our lifestyles. Here's seven surefire techniques you can use (starting today!) to find time to get in, and stay in, great shape. These relatively simple (but so overlooked) tips for finding loads of time you didn't even know you had will allow you to fit in workouts on a regular basis, follow a precise nutrition program, and even free up time for active rest and more fun, which is good for the body and mind!

Before we get to the list, I want to remind you that to build a healthy body, you really don't need more than four hours of exercise a week. Think about it -- that's only 2.3% of the time you have to work with each week! That's not a huge investment of time by any stretch of the imagination! And, those who think following a proper nutrition program is time consuming have got it all wrong -- the fact is, "Eating right" doesn't cost you time, it saves you time!

The second part follows in the next post.

Protein “Your Key to Successful Weightloss”

The Power of Protein “Your Key to Successful Weightloss”

Protein Defined: This is a complex, high-molecular-weight organic compound that consists of amino acids joined by peptide bonds. They are essential to the structure and function of all living cells and viruses. Many proteins are enzymes or subunits of enzymes. Others play structural or mechanical roles, such as those that form the struts and joints of the cytoskeleton, serving as biological scaffolds for the mechanical integrity and tissue signaling functions. Still more functions filled by proteins include immune response and the storage and transport of various ligands. In nutrition, proteins are broken down through digestion to provide amino acids for the organism, including those the organism may not be able to synthesize itself.

Human bodies can make use of all amino acids normally obtained from food for synthesizing new proteins, but the inessential ones need not be supplied by the diet, since they can be synthesized from other amino acids.

Soy is the highest-quality plant protein available. It is an excellent source for the amino acids your body needs, as well as antioxidants to help you maintain healthy cells. It acts longer and slowly metabolized.

Whey provides amino acids and mixes well with nonfat (skim) milk or soy milk to create creamy, delicious shakes. It is fast-acting and quickly metabolized.

Protein deficiency can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, insulin resistance, hair loss, loss of hair pigment (hair that should be black becomes reddish), loss of muscle mass (proteins repair muscle tissue), low body temperature, and hormonal irregularities. Severe deficiency, encountered only in times of famine, is fatal.

The question is why does increasing protein in the diet make such a difference to our weight loss?

Simply because Insulin, a hormone, produced in the islets of Langerhans of the pancreas, regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and starches in the body. Like other proteins, insulin is partially digested if administered orally and hence must be injected into a muscle when used clinically. In the treatment of diabetes mellitus, which is caused by a deficiency of insulin production or by inhibition of its action on cells, insulin is often combined with protamine, which prolongs the period of absorption of the hormone. Insulin crystallized from the pancreas contains zinc, which also lengthens absorption. A preparation called protamine zinc insulin extends the hormone's action still further.

Insulin - The Fat, Hungry Hormone: The reason why insulin is such a key element is because it is commonly termed the 'hunger hormone', due to its influence on our appetites. People who eat a lot of carbohydrates all day will get 'peaks' and 'dips' of insulin in their blood sugar levels, causing cravings and the urge to eat more. Their insulin levels will remain high, and often producing more than they need. This means the body will store more fat. Insulin levels begin to drop after a balanced meal. This triggers the release of a feel-good hormone in the brain, to let people know when they've eaten enough. People with high insulin levels may not experience this 'cut-off' point, so are unlikely to feel satisfied by their food.

More Protein To Lose Weight: Those who control their intake of carbohydrates and take mainly the more slowly-absorbed complex carbohydrates, will be able to regulate their insulin to avoid the highs and lows in their blood sugar, so will feel less hunger and will store less sugar as body fat. This is how protein can help; by aiming for at least 100g of lean protein for women and 150g for men, it is possible to keep the appetite sated with no urges to snack on highly processed carbohydrates you simply won't want them.

FACT: MUSCLE BURNS MORE CALORIES AT REST THAN FAT

So our aim is to increase LEAN BODY MASS so that even at rest your body will be burning up the calories you have consumed. Eating more protein and doing more resistance exercise will do this for you. (Resistance exercise = weight training) Now, before all the women out there gasp and say "but I don't want bulging muscles!" you won't. You have to lift an enormous amount of weight to achieve that as a woman, as women don't carry the testosterone in our bodies to build it so relax. Basically, by increasing that lean body mass with the right nutrition and protein you will speed up your metabolism safely, people naturally lose muscle fibre as they get older hence the term : Middle age spread, as people lose muscle, their metabolism slows and although they are consuming the same amount of calories as they were 10 years previously they are not burning it off at the same rate of knots so they increase in weight.

What is Cellular Nutrition

Your cells deserve the very best.

Cellular nutrition is a simple concept of providing nutrition for the cells of your body. This is the pathway to good health and long life. Now, there are tens of trillion of cells in your body, and they are constantly reproducing and replacing themselves. Our body is said to manufacture 200 billion cells each day, replacing all the blood in our body every 120 days. Our skin is completely replaced every 1-3 months, our skeletal mass turns over every 12 months.

This implies that our body needs constant cellular nutrition for healing from toxic by-products of everyday life, ultraviolet light, pollution and metabolism. The more we eat, the more digestion (work) our body has to do, the more toxins it produces, the more damage to cells. By controlling our intake of food we lessen the stress on our body.

Unfortunately, many people eat a dismally poor diet of “fast food” or pre-packaged convenience meals that are nutrient-deficient. As a result, their cells do not receive the nutrition they need and a person becomes sluggish. This can have a number of unfortunate consequences. For instance, if your liver cells lack nutrient that they need, you may process toxins efficiently and you will feel fatigued. If your nerve cells are malnourished, they may fire more slowly and you will not react as fast to stimuli such as a light turning red or a car stopping in front of you. Also, if your muscles cells lack the nutrition they need, you may find that your excise stamina is not up to balance.

It is imperative to understand that without daily supply of proteins, vitamins and mineral, no matter how much energy we get in the form of calories, our bodies and mind deteriorates because we are not able to fully replace the dying cells in our internal and external organs.

When you supply your body with the necessary nutrients such as magnesium, molybdenum, vanadium and amino acids to power the kreb cycle, your body’s cells have building block they need to do their job. The result is that you feel full of vitality and zest for life. Cravings are diminished and you are on your way to healthy weight control.

High Blood Pressure, how it is controlled

Lifestyle Change Such As Weightloss Will Reduce High Blood Pressure.

Blood pressure is the force of blood against the walls of arteries. High blood pressure, or hypertension, therefore, is a condition in which the force of blood against artery walls is too strong. This condition over time, can damage the arteries, heart, and kidneys and can lead to heart disease and stroke.

The readings of blood pressure consist of what is known as an upper number and a lower number (such as 120 over 90 or 120/90) respectively. This upper number is called systolic blood pressure (readings as the heart beats) and the lower number is referred to as diastolic blood pressure (readings as the heart relaxes between beats).

Blood pressure is the force of blood inside an artery and the readings are measured in units referred to as millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). Our normal blood pressure is 120 mm Hg systolic over 80 mm Hg diastolic or below (120/80).

A person has high blood pressure (hypertension) when either or both conditions of the following are present:

° The top number systolic - that is as the heart beats is 140 mm Hg or higher.
° The bottom number diastolic – that is as the heart relaxes between beats is 90 mm Hg or higher.

How does nutrition affect blood pressure?


° Certain food nutrition can increase blood pressure.
° Gaining weight can increase blood pressure.
° Losing weight can reduce blood pressure.

What sort of nutrition control high blood pressure?

° Foods lower in fat, salt, and calories.
° Use spices and herbs instead of salt to flavor foods.
° Use less oil, butter, margarine, shortening, and salad dressings.

Remedy:

High blood pressure can be treated effectively with diet and lifestyle change, such as losing weight, regular exercise and quit smoking, in order to prevent a rise in blood pressure. Some patients can lower their blood pressure by limiting salt in their diet. Increasing physical activity and reducing alcohol consumption to the minimum of less than two drinks per day for men and one drink per day for women may also lower blood pressure.

What is food and why we need it?

Food serves as a source of nutrients food: These are materials that provides the components necessary to build tissues, to repair tissues as they wear out and die, to keep the body in good working condition, and to supply fuel for energy and growth. Food is any solid substance that is used as a source of nourishment for people or animals, especially in solid as opposed to liquid form. 

Food tastes good to the taste buds and it is enjoyable. Beside this known fact humans requires food basically for three purposes:

Energy: We need energy (this is measured in calories) to perform external work and to allow organs such as the heart, lungs, and others to function optimally.



Building Blocks: Raw materials for example proteins, most minerals used to manufacture blood, skin, bones, hair and internal organs; the human body is constantly replacing and renewing every cell on a daily bases.

Catalysts: Chemical compounds for example vitamins, enzymes and some minerals) necessary to facilitates the chemical reactions that convert food into energy and into bodily organs.

Human beings require food for energy every few hours and require specific foods that function as building blocks and catalysts on a daily. Our bodies are biologically programmed to immediately recognise when energy is needed in the body, we also experience hunger pain.

How our bodies process food into energy and living matter. 
All of our food consists of one or more of these nutrients: 



• Water
• Carbohydrates (contained in sugar, bread, etc)

• Lipids (contained in fats, oils, etc)

• Proteins (contained in meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, etc)

• Vitamins (contained in fruits, vegetables, etc)


• Minerals (contained in fruits, vegetables, etc)
• Essential amino acid
• Iron


• Phytochemicals, including anti-oxidants, enzymes, bio-flavinoids

What happens is that when food is taken in the process of digestion begins immediately it enters the mouth and starts being broken down by your teeth and the enzymes in your saliva. Then chemicals in your stomach go to work digesting the food into its various nutrient categories.

How to choose a diet program that works

There are a couple of things to take into consideration when embarking on a diet program. Knowing the actual diet program is a barrier that most people are yet to overcome. For this simple fact these individuals have jumped from one diet program to another before meaningful results occurs in search of another diet solution.

It must be said that people respond differently as we are wired differently, plus our lifestyles differs and we are at different stages of our respective lives emotionally and otherwise. However, in any diet program or any venture for that matter discipline and consistency is of paramount importance.

The best recommendation for a diet program is a healthy balanced diet using all food groups, control fat intake, drinking plenty of water and exercise very regularly. As a matter of fact anything that one does, it is important to understand that they are to bear a degree of responsibility for the ultimate desired outcome or results. Hence it is up to you at the end of the day to inform yourself on what type of diet program that is suitable for you.

With so much confusing information out there you own it to yourself to sieve through so as to ascertain what is good for you. You will avoid painful experiences if you do this upfront.

Most people, friends and acquaintances alike have asked the unavoidable question on several occasions, WHAT DIET PROGRAM WORKS? I have taking time to look into most of the diet programs out there today. Some of the key pointers to recommending these programs are:

1. The medical research
2. The scientific research
3. The duration of the company
4. Unquestionable testimonials
5. General wellness is taking into consideration

My goal is to list some of the these diet programs and before you go on any diet and weight management program, discuss with your physician or dietician your decision to embark on a diet program. Also Keep in mind and be rest assured that weightloss takes time because it did not pile up overnight and as well as a lifestyle change that will manifest in your eating habits.

These are my recommended diet programs

1. Herbalife
2. Weight watchers
3. Change One
4. Nutrisystem
5. Ediets
6. Southbeach Diet
7. Atkins Diets
8. Anne Collins Diet
9. Jenny Craig Diet

Wellness not a destination –It’s a journey

I am certain that you may have read, heard in the media, you or loved one are experiencing it that many people are to a greater extent concerned about their health, weight and how they feel about themselves.

Over twenty years ago, illnesses were mostly due to infection, but are you aware that at the present time that many common illnesses can be directly associated with poor diet and lifestyle habits? In fact, being 10% overweight can cause health problems. Unfortunately, medical experts have in recent times announced that the percentage of clinically overweight adults and children population is astronomically on the rise in USA and Europe.

The good news is that many of these common illnesses are preventable by good nutrition and there are many ways we can lose weight safely and healthily. The questions to ask are: How determined are you to lose the excess weight? Or When are you going to start your weight loss programs to get your health and energy back again?

Now, if being overweight concerns you or if your energy levels are low, or you suffer from tiredness by lunchtime or apprehensive about your overall wellness, you are welcome to peruse this blog for information that will help you navigate through the process.

Weightloss Tips

With these few weight loss tips, it is imperative to know that long lasting and effective weighloss is definitely possible but you must stay the course. There is an expression that says that for things to change you have to change. If you desire to lose some weight of course you will have to change your lifestyle and your eating habits.

Reality check: It’s a fact that you did not accumulate weight overnight. Therefore, it is unrealistic that you are expecting to lose it overnight. It must be registered in your mind that an effective and sustainable weightloss takes time and a step by step process.

Reality check: Set your weightloss goals, give it a number and do not simply say I want to lose weight.

Reality check: You must focus on a healthier you rather than just considering the fats dropping off. Your motives and goals must be complimentary.

Reality Check: Your purpose is to lose weight, remain healthy and invigorated. This should be your top priority.

Reality check: There ought to be a maintenance culture in your mindset. The reason a lot of people are frustrated with their weightloss quest is simply because after they lose weight they put it back on. This is inevitably so because there was no maintenance built into the process which, is an important part of the entire process of weightloss. It is advised that the amount of time it takes to lose the desired weight is also the amount of time it will take to maintain the desired weight.

Reality check: It is important to find out if the weight loss program you are embarking on has a maintenance program built in it.

Reality check: Monetary aspect of the whole process of weightloss is imperative. It is of no value to begin a weightloss program just to cut it short because of inadequate funds, before meaningful results are attained. Therefore you must plan monetarily before embarking on a weightloss program.

Reality check: Supports system is of utmost value on your quest for weight management. Identify the people that can help you overcome obstacles in the pursuit for a healthy new you. The truth is that we are not always in high spirits as it were, demotivation, procrastination could step in us at any given time hence we could definitely use some help from our support groups or weightloss mentors or coaches.

Reality check: Exercise, take a walk with your dog or go walk in the park between 15 to 30 minutes.

Reality Check: Drink at least two liters of water per day.

Reality check: Stay focus and set out to enjoy your weightloss program.

Reality check: Eat less fat, but do it wisely.

Reality check: Stay away from the scales but only measure when it is appropriate.
