Now, for another free tip.
I am always asked "What is the quickest way to lose weight?"
My answer is always "Don't eat!"
I always tell people that it may not be the BEST way, gut it is the fastest.
The best way is, of course, to reduce what you eat, move around more,
and eat more foods that are complex in nature (i.e. grains, nuts, legumes
veggies, etc.)  Even these should be eaten in moderation.  The complex
foods will also help you to feel more full for a longer period of time.
Oh, yes, find something to do other than sitting in front of the T.V.

Go Mental!

Do you have trouble losing weight?

Maybe you have trouble just getting things done?

It is not enough to say that someone needs to have more self-control.
There are actually techniques involved in controlling what you do.
Mental control is sometimes elusive.  We all have difficulty focusing
on the important things sometimes, but those of us who are more
effective at getting things accomplished are usually better at
mental focus than are the others of us.

Here are three (3) basic things that you can do to help yourself
focus and be more efficient.

• Know what you want
• Design a way to get it
• Follow through

and email to your right.  The material will be well worth your trouble.

The Weight Loss "FIT"

The fitness people are going crazy at this time of year.  The New Year
brings all of those people out who have been thinking about, considering,
or toying with the idea of reducing their weight.

Before doing anything with any weight loss plan, consider your lifestyle.
Make sure that the way you go about losing weight is:

1. One that you can afford - Many plans carry a hefty price tag.

2. Not just some fad - Fad diets are seldom maintainable.

3. Healthy - Not all diet plans will give you the daily nutrition
                    that you need to stay healthy.

4. Workable - You plan must "Fit" you and your lifestyle.  If you do
                      not have a lot of extra time, then you do not want to
                      be on a plan that takes a lot of meal preparation and
                      time in the kitchen.

Weight Loss Reviews

Now is the time when many of us vow to lose
those extra unwanted pounds.  We all say we are
going to eat right, get exercise, and THIS TIME
we are going to stick with it - yeah, right!

Studies have shown that to maintain long-term
weight loss it is usually necessary to have some
intervention by a third party.  A personal trainer,
diet and work outs with a friend, or some kind of
"coaching" type of encouragement.

Here are some reviews of some weight control programs
to check out - Click Here for reviews.

For your own personal coach, check out this link - Click Here for coaching

We all need help sometimes and there is no time like NOW to get started.
Be careful about using some diet or program that you have used before,
especially if it was one that you did not follow through on.  You need to
find one that works for you.  Get free information at the top right of this

Stress, Eating, and Children

Anyone who has battled with weight understands how stress and anxiety
can affect his or her eating habits.  If you are watching your weight to
keep your weight under control, you are considered "Restrained".
The less you watch and are worried about your weight, the less restrained
you are.  So, you can be highly restrained, or on the other hand have  
low restraint.

According to recent studies of 9 year old children, there is some indication
that stress may influence their eating habits just as it seems to in adults.
The following is what they say:   "Dietary restraint occurs in children and
may influence the effect of stress on eating.  Interpersonal stress decreases
snacking in low dietary restrained youth but increases snacking in
high-dietary restrained children, perhaps because of stress-induced disinhibition."
(from "Obesity Research")

In other words, according to this study, kids that are very weight conscious
will eat more under stress than those that do not worry about their weight.
There are studies out there that do NOT directly link stress to overeating
and obesity, but they are quick to say that there needs to be more
study and their results are not definitive.

From my experience in counseling weight loss clients, I personally think that
most of the emotional eating is a learned behavior.  We learn it from our
parents, friends, peers, and siblings.  Mostly it is from parents.

Have Sex, Lose Weight

   As we all know sexual activity takes some effort (if done correctly)
and in expending energy, calories are burned off.  So, how many calories
do we burn? 

   the average person will burn off approximately 1 calorie per minute
during a moderate session.  Do this for an hour at a fairly vigorous
level and you not only burn off quite a few calories, but you can
also increase your aerobic capacity.  Not to mention the fun part.
Well, what are you waiting for?

Weight Loss? Are You Mental?

Welcome 2010!  The new year is here and if you are like many people,
you are wanting to get rid of those extra pounds that you have accumulated
during the holidays.  Well FORGET IT, YOU CAN'T!  (JUST KIDDING).

Of course you can.  Now is the time to begin.  It is not just a matter of
getting exercise, or watching what you eat, you must make sure that you
are mentally ready.  Have you ever made a resolution to lose weight before?
Do you know anyone who has said that they were going to lose weight,
but did not?  How long was it before the effort stopped?  That is what
I mean by being mentally ready.  If  you do not take the correct steps to
get in tune with what you need, want, and are willing to do, then you are
fighting an "uphill battle".    Here are a few tips from my free ebook. 
You can read some of it in parts here, or just download the entire thing
by clicking HERE.

One thing that I mention is to Pay Attention to Yourself.  You need to keep
in mind what your lifestyle is like so that you can work with it.  If you are
an early morning person,  you may decide to begin an exercise program
early in the day.  This would be difficult for the person who likes to stay
in bed until noon. 

Another thing is that I talk about is taking things step-by-step.  Do not think
about needing to lose 50 pounds, but lose that first 5 pounds. 
Then do it again.  Do it 10 times and you have lost that extra 50 pounds.
