3 Pitfalls You CAN Steer Clear of in a Calories Loss Diet

by Rowena French

Even with the best of intentions, most people who start a
calories loss diet generally give it up during its early
stages.  They do this because they are unaware of a number
of very common pitfalls that stop them from succeeding in
their quest to lose weight and get healthy. Learning to spot
these early so that you can avoid them or work around them
is a way to make sure that you stay on your diet and reach
your weight loss goals.

Making radical changes to your eating habits happens all the
time on diets, especially fad diets. If you go on a diet
where you can only eat fruit, or only eat protein, or you
must cut out all of one of kind of food it will be very
difficult for you to stay on that diet. When you make
changes to the way you eat you should make them gradually.
If you make an extreme change to the way you eat and you do
it fast then you will deprived and you will start to crave
foods, making it more likely that you will go off your diet.

Aiming for unachievable outcomes happens often, particularly
at the start of your diet when you lose weight at a faster
rate than you will as your diet progresses. Fast weight loss
at the beginning is exciting but this can lure you into a
false sense of expectation because this weight loss is
largely water weight. Health professionals suggest that real
weight loss does not happen as quickly and that you should
only expect to lose a pound or two each week. So if you
expect to lose five pounds or more weekly, you are unlikely
to achieve this.  The sense of disillusionment that this can
bring on may see you quitting your calories loss diet and
returning to the lifestyle that saw you gain weight in the
first place.

Eating food to celebrate your success is a very common
social behavior and food is often at the center of
celebrations both large and small.  Drinks and nibbles on
Friday night to celebrate a challenging week at the office
is an accepted behavior. So if you are serious about your
calories loss diet you need to either avoid these eating and
drinking occasions or join in and enjoy the healthier food
and drink options available. A glass or mineral water has
way less calories than a beer! Another kind of celebration
at the end of the week can include seeing a movie with
friends (without the popcorn). Even something that will last
longer like buying a new pair of shoes is a healthier way to
celebrate without slowing down your weight loss.

Five Easy Ways to Make a Calories Loss Commitment

by Rowena French

The beginning of a diet is often the time when we make
promises to ourselves and others about how we will eat and
exercise to cause the weight loss we have always dreamed of.
We assure everyone that this time will be different and this
time we will commit to just what it takes to lose weight.
But do we keep that commitment going with a calories loss
diet and exercise or do we resume the wrong eating habits
and lifestyle and fail to lose any weight or worse still
gain it instead?

That is what happens to most people because dieting is not
always fun, change is usually no fun and there are times
when losing weight can just get hard. But in order to make
real, healthy, permanent changes you need to make sure that
the food you eat over the long term is both enjoyable and
provides you with the calories loss you need. You need to be
committed to getting healthy and fit and to sticking with
your diet and this time you really do make that commitment.

Committing to anything involves letting others in on your
secret and using some kind of outward sign that you are
serious. If this seems a little contrived to you, do not
underestimate the power of an action like this and recall
the significance of symbols like trophies, rings and pledges
during special ceremonies on other important occasions.
Politicians like Senator McCain or Senator Obama will be
committing to our whole country in November. If you really
are serious about sticking to a balanced calories loss diet
and you really want to enjoy the benefits of and successful
exercise program then be prepared to commit this to others
in your life.

There are some fun ways to make a commitment to become
healthier, happier, and fit by losing weight so begin
positively and write it down, making a weight loss contract
and committing to stay on your diet for at least six months.
Include in the contract, rewards for staying committed and
penalties for breaking the contract.  Then sign it, have a
friend witness it then keep it on the refrigerator to remind
you of your commitment.

Paying for a fitness trainer and joining a gym is action
that reflects a very clear commitment to reaching your
weight loss goal.  Both require your money up front without
refund if you fail to show up or drop the program for any
reason. Payment for these reasons to help you become fit and
healthy can be an effective way to make a long term
commitment to weight loss.

Set up a weight loss group where the prime objective of each
member is to support each other as they lose weight and this
will reflect your commitment and enable the same for others.
So get a group started amongst those who have said they
want to lose weight and allow everyone the opportunity to
encourage and keep each other committed. This is the way the
best weight loss clinics operate and is worth copying in
your own way.

You do not need to take out a front page advertisement in
national papers but real commitment to a permanent lifestyle
change and healthier body becomes more powerful when you
share this with your friends, family and workmates. The
outcome of this is generally very encouraging and you can
anticipate interest in your calories loss menu and your
exercise routine. After sharing your commitment with the
people in your life whose opinion you value, it is more
likely that you will remain committed for yourself and for
them.

Visualize just how you want to look at your healthiest and
happiest and have fun selecting magazine pictures that
reflect this or your own photos taken at an earlier and
healthier time. Make sure that these are on display in your
office and at home as such images say 'This is who I will
be' and 'This is where my weight loss will take me'.  They
will be daily reminders of the importance of committing to a
calories loss diet that will bring these results.

Importance of a Well Balanced Diet in Successful Weight Loss

by Ricardo d Argence

When the scale just won't budge, it can be so frustrating.
You are dieting, counting calories, and cutting back the way
you are supposed to. It seems like your best friend eats all
the time and to make matters worse she is just nice and
slim.

Perhaps you've concluded you are genetically predisposed to
be curvy. A more likely explanation is that you are eating
the wrong combination of foods, while those ideas may be a
remote possibility.

The amount of daily calories you consume is not what decides
whether you are thin or overweight. You must supply your
body with the nutrients it needs in order to work like a
well-oiled machine, burning fat calories as energy before it
turns to fat on your thighs.

It's necessary to understand why a well-balanced diet is
important and why eating food from every group is necessary.
After we understand our bodies' nutritional needs, we can
design a diet that helps us lose weight permanently.

We need to eat every day, there are basically 3 types of
calories. These are protein, carbohydrates, and fat. Your
system requires all 3 different calories, but not all in the
same amount at each food intake. You trust or do not trust,
some fat calories can really work fast on weight loss, while
some of the non fatty stuff you consume can cause increase
in weight if eaten regularly.

Sugar is commonly found in fat free foods. A sugar-rich diet
will result in your body leaving excess calories to be
stored as fat.

Many people think that eating fat is taboo and that fat free
foods are safe. The truth is that when you consume fat
calories they do not turn directly into fat on your body.
When you eat fat free foods, you will not automatically lose
weight either. To lose weight you must understand this fact
and become receptive to a different way of dieting.

Once you understand which foods have fat burning properties
and keep your blood sugar at a stable level all day you will
begin to lose weight, in many cases rather rapidly. When you
eat foods that cause an upward spike in your blood sugar
level, you will get a nice boost of energy only to be
followed by a crash. This crash occurs when the blood sugar
level drops too low, leaving you tired and hungry once
again. The higher the blood sugar level rises after eating,
the lower it drops after the spike. This is the reason that
obese people experience highs and lows in their level of
energy.

To have suitable energy levels, we need to provide our body
with certain numbers of calories from each nutritional
group. Any calories that are consumed and not used for fuel
will be stored as fat. Excess calories will be stored,
whether they came from carbohydrates, proteins, or fats
originally.

In the right combination and at the right time in order for
the body to function at its best,it is important to eat the
right calories. We can turn on the power of the natural fat
burning engine that resides within everybody, if we give our
body what it needs.

Of course you can lose weight, and the whole reason why are
you on this site, is because you know you want to lose
weight! Here you'll find the best diets and

Is Hoodia Gordonii Really the Best Weight Loss Drug?

by Ricardo d Argence

Hoodia Gordonii is a spiny desert plant found native in the
southern regions of Africa and has been used in herbal folk
remedies for generations. The indigenous peoples of the area
have used the herb to treat indigestion and to fight
infection, and it has been used as an appetite suppressant
on long hunts in the desert.

In the west and has since been made a part of many natural
weight loss schemes and this last use of Hoodia Gordonii has
gained a lot of attention.

Since the early research into the weight loss benefits of
Hoodia Gordoni in 1977, only a few companies have been
allowed to produce it for that purpose due primarily to
restrictions on cultivating the plant for mass production.

It has been used for this purpose in indegenous history and
similat effects have been in animal testing while there have
not been any published testing that reveals that Hoodia
Gordonii suppresses appetite in humans.

Work on the plant which was being used in weight reduction
was stopped due to the expense and complexity of
synthesizing the component in Hoodia Gordonii that supress
body's appetite.

This plant is nearly extinct so, it may become extinct if
use and cultivation of the plant is not strictly monitored.

Many people have said that Hoodia Gordonii can help in
suppressing your appetite, but that the dosage required to
do so effectively tends to be much larger than that which
most websites have listed.

The herb also works best in a carbohydrate-controlled diet
and a stable blood sugar level, as the plant does not react
in the same way with a diet of simple sugars and refined
carbohydrates. As with any herbal remedy, you need to take
just the right amount, three times daily for an extended
period of time to see results.

It would be unwise to think that you can just take excessive
doses of Hoodia Gordonii and lose weight. Herbal remedies
take time to work, and this one in particular works in
conjunction with the kinds of foods you eat. As a result,
even those considering Hoodia Gordonii as a part of their
weight loss plan need to include it as a part of an overall
diet and exercise routine.

Be warned that taking huge amounts of Hoodia Gordonii, or
any herb or medicine, will make you sick and have no lasting
beneficial effects. Instead, ease your body into the change
by introducing a new routine. Hoodia Gordonii may work for
you, but it cannot be taken in place of diet and exercise or
you will not be able to maintain your overall health and you
will not achieve the results you want.

You can burn that fat, and the whole reason why are you on
this site, is because you know you want to burn that fat!

Burn Body Fat

by Jason King

To successfully burn unwanted fat from your body the first
phase is to get your food combinations correct. No amount of
exercise will burn the fat that is continually put on your
body from a poor diet. Doing an extra 10 minutes cardio in
the evening because you cheated on your diet with a burger
at lunchtime just doesn't work.

Carbohydrates are an important ingredient in your quest to
lose weight. A diet that has gotten a lot of media attention
over the last few years is the low carb diet. Celebrities
have helped this rubbish way to lose weight get a lot of
exposure by endorsing it.

The problem with low carb diets is you lose muscle as well
as fat, and losing muscle slows down your metabolism. This
seems like a good thing while you're on your diet, but the
pounds will soon pile back on when you start eating a proper
balanced diet again.

Carbohydrates feed your muscles and give them the energy you
need to exercise. Low carb diets can make you feel grumpy
because of the lack of energy in your body. Depression soon
sets in when you cut carbs from your diet. And you're
suppose to feel good while you're dieting, and fell more
energetic.

Low fat diets are another fad diet. The only reason to go on
a low fat diet is if you're suffering with an illness such
as heart disease. Fat is as important as any other macro
nutrient if your goal is to lose weight.

Eating fat doesn't make you fat. Your weight loss program
will have a massive benefit from eating healthy unsaturated
fats. Cell regeneration in your body relies on healthy fats
in your diet. Fish oils such as omega 3's are now well known
for being good for the brain because the brain is largely
made of fat. Vitamins and minerals also rely on fat so they
can be transported around your body.

Your muscles grow when you consume more protein which is why
protein is important for weight loss. Your metabolic rate
increases when your muscle get bigger. Increasing your
metabolic rate is needed when you're attempting to burn fat
from your body. This is the rate in which your body uses
energy even in a resting state.

A good exercise regime is also needs to be introduced into
our life as well as a healthy diet. Exercise makes you
stronger, and when you get stronger your muscles grow. When
your muscles grow you increase your metabolism, and your
body burns fat faster then you could have imagined.

All this is achieved without the need of any fad diets, or
expensive diet supplements.

Why Drinking Water Means Fast Weight Loss

by Ricardo d Argence

Losing weight is one of the biggest undertakings you can
attempt. With the list of lifestyle changes you make, it can
seem frustrating to keep up with calories, exercise,
portions, vitamins, and everything else.

Losing weight the natural way is the most simplest, but most
often overlooked. By simply drinking water, you can increase
your dieting success and improve your overall well being.
Water is practically a wonder drug in that it can suppress
appetite, improve both metabolism and overall well-being,
and give you that "healthy glow."

The success of weight loss with water can be attributed to
its properties as a natural appetite suppressant. When you
don't have enough water in your body, the signs of thirst
are often confused with the signs of hunger. People will
often reach for a snack when in fact they need a glass of
water.

When you first begin to drink water, you may have to go to
the bathroom more often than you are used to, but don't let
this deter you. This does not mean that you are drinking too
much water, but that you have given your body an opportunity
to flush out water it has been storing from mild
dehydration. Once your body knows it can depend on the water
being replenished, you will begin to see the swollen ankles,
hips, and thighs trimming down as the excess water is
flushed out.

7-9 glasses of water is what the average person needs every
day. Don't gulp it all down at once, because your body needs
time to assimilate the liquid. The optimum approach is to
have a glass during mealtime, and to continue to drink
during the day.

Water does more than just suppress your appetite. It is also
excellent for hormone function, metabolic function, it
increases the fat used for energy, and helps the liver
function. By staying hydrated, the salt-water balance in
your body is at normal levels. It also improves skin and
hair texture, helps muscle tone, and alleviates some common
symptoms of dehydration, such as headache, poor
concentration, fatigue, constipation, dark urine and even
bad breath. When you are dehydrated, bacteria can reproduce
in your mouth, giving you fuzzy tongue and bad breath.

Have you ever wondered why water assists with metabolism, we
will explain it now. When you are dehydrated, even slightly,
your liver is unable to do its job. The liver's normal role
is to convert stored fat into energy, but it may also aid
the kidneys when they are water deprived. This reduces the
efficiency of the liver, enabling your body to hold on to
additional fat. If you stick with the program long enough,
you'll start feeling the positive effects.

So, now that you have been let in on the simplest secret a
dieter can know, go grab that bottle and fill it up! It
doesn't matter if it's cold or hot, just drink it. You will
begin to see yourself in a healthier light, and if you have
hit a plateau in weight loss, this might be just the trick
you need to get over the hump.

It would take hours to do the proper research to finally
decide which is the right product. Don't waste your time, we
have come up with the absolute best

Are Making Lifestyle Changes Effective In Losing Weight

by Elizabeth Akers

Eating judiciously is one of the most important weight loss
tips that you need to remember. You need to be more
conscious of everything you put inside your mouth. Also, it
is important that you drink lots of water to prevent
dehydration and weight gain caused by water retention. Next,
you need to minimize your consumption of alcohol and soda.
If you really have to drink something sweet, stick to fresh
fruit shakes. In order to make you feel satiated for a
longer time and to help enhance your waste elimination
system, you need to eat foods that are plenty of fiber, such
as fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Furthermore, you
should not skip breakfast because this meal helps in
normalizing your blood sugar levels. As much as possible,
you must stay away from grubs that include processed foods,
baked goodies, sugar-filled beverages and pastries, and
fatty foods.

Weight loss tips are essential in helping people attain a
healthier and leaner physique. If you are interested in
shedding some pounds and getting rid of the excess fat in
your body, you must be prepared to do some lifestyle changes
that are important to help you succeed. But unless you are
ready to accept that there will be some modifications in
your daily schedule and eating habits, no amount of tips or
pointers could help you lose weight.

Regular exercise and eating a healthier diet are an
essential part of most weight loss tips. In order to help
boost your metabolism, especially if you are over 30 years
old, you need to make sure that you engage in physical
activities like aerobics, brisk walking, swimming, jogging,
or even belly dancing for at least 30 minutes everyday.
Aside from these cardiovascular activities, you also need to
engage in strength training to help build and tone your
muscles. Remember, the bigger and stronger your muscles are,
the quicker your metabolism cycle will be.

For most of us the thought of changing our lifestyle to lose
weight makes us shudder. If you start making small changes
at a time and gradually every week add more changes you will
be more successful with your results. Doing it this way can
be less frustrating than changing everything all at once.
So think baby steps. What is a small lifestyle change that
you can make and go from there. Think positive about the
things that you can do or have done. Do not allow the words
failure, diet, have to or cheating to be a part of your
vocabulary. They are negative words and tend to lead to
your quitting before you even get started.

Sleeping better at night is also included in the top weight
loss tips. Some experts say that an average adult should
sleep for about six to eight hours every night. Research
shows that individuals who are chronically sleep-deprived
are more prone to being obese or overweight. It seems that
your body's production of the brain chemicals responsible
for curbing your appetite is reduced every time you skip
sleep.
