The Top Two Mistakes Women Make When Dieting

I was talking to a lady the other day who was 5'3'' and 135
pounds. She came into the office because at 44 years of
age, she was having trouble getting her weight down. She
told me that she was doing everything right to lose weight
but nothing was happening.

I asked her what she had been doing and realized that even
though sometimes people think they know what they are doing
when it comes to exercise and weight loss; often they don't
have a clue.

She told me that based on the fact that she wanted to lose
2lbs a week that she needed to burn off 1000 calories extra
a week to meet her goals. She had cut her calories to below
1000 a day and was lifting light weights so she didn't bulk
up. It was then I knew where her problem was.  To lose two
pounds a week you actually need to create a deficit of 7000
calories over the period of a week through both diet and
exercise. One pound of fat contains 3500 calories. To lose
two pounds in a week, 7000 calories is the amount of
calories you need to burn off. This large number is why
people have such a hard time trying to drop weight with
diet alone. It's very hard to cut that many calories out of
your diet unless you are eating way too much to start with.
What you do to make it easier is exercise part of it off
and eat only what you need to maintain your healthy muscle.

This combination approach not only makes the dieting aspect
easier to handle but the exercise also remodels your entire
physique for a total body transformation.

The funny thing is, most people I coach refuse to eat
ENOUGH of the right foods and this causes the metabolism to
shut down. This means a rapid stop to any fat burning and
weight loss. Sometimes when people go too low with the
calories and the body rebels. Its says, "Your not feeding
me, so I'm not letting go of the only calorie storage I
have, my fat".

The other consideration and benefit of resistance training
when losing weight is an increased metabolism created by
maintaining a toned muscular body. The most common hurdle
for females trying to lose weight and hitting the gym is
that they lift too light out of fear of putting on too much
muscle. Please put that fear aside.

Muscle growth is created through anabolic hormone systems
in the body, specifically testosterone. As a female, you
have less of this than a man and putting on enough muscle
to make you look un-feminine, is a rare case. The women you
see in the magazines are usually using drugs. So please
don't look at them as the norm of what happens when a women
lifts heavy weights.

I hope this helps a little and trust me when I say that if
you are looking to change your body, make sure that you're
efforts are based on solid facts and information from a
professional. It really is a shame to spend all that time
and effort on a strategy for weight loss based on myths and
misinformation.

The Magic Potion For Fat Loss

If there were ever a magic potion for fat loss - it would
be water. Our bodies are comprised of about 70% water. We
lose about a liter (34 ounces) of water per day under
normal circumstances and when the temperature in our body
rises, as during exercise, we lose higher amounts of water
through sweat. It only makes sense that we need to
continually replenish this supply for water is necessary
for nearly every function in our body. Water regulates our
temperature, supports and protects our organs, helps with
digestion, transports nutrients to our muscles and helps
move along waste by products.

Water is, in essence, the key to fat metabolism. Here's
why: one of you liver's primary functions is to metabolize
stored fat to be burned for energy. If you are dehydrated,
the kidneys cannot function properly and the liver begins
to take over - as a result of working overtime, the liver
metabolizes LESS fat so MORE fat remains in your body.

Sometimes we mistake mild states of dehydration for hunger.
If we don't get enough fluids, our bodies give us
indications that are similar to hunger pains. When this
occurs, we start eating because we misunderstood what are
bodies were telling us. Unnecessary calorie consumption can
lead to excessive fat!

Water is a natural appetite suppressant. Drinking lots of
water throughout the day helps to keep you feeling full. If
your stomach feels full - you are less likely to overeat!

A constant supply of water is vital before, during and
after a workout. Dehydration leads to a lack of energy,
muscle fatigue and cramping. Even small amounts of water
loss can hinder exercise performance.

Remember that alcohol and caffeine are diuretics, making
you lose even more water, so be sure to compensate for the
additional loss.

How to do it: You can replace the water lost during a
typical day by drinking a minimum of 6-8 8 oz. glasses of
water a day. Begin by drinking your first big glass of
water right when you wake up. Drink a full glass of water
with each meal. Keep water with you at all times.

To prevent dehydration, make sure you're drinking adequate
amounts of water before, during and after a workout. As a
rule of thumb, drink 8-12 ounces of water at least an hour
before beginning to exercise, 8 oz during exercise and 8 oz
when finished.  If you are hungry about an hour after
eating, try drinking a glass or two of water- you maybe
misreading thirst for hunger. If you are still hungry after
15-20 minutes then proceed with a supportive snack to tide
you over until your next meal.

Here's a 'success strategy' to get you started: Make
drinking water more fun by adding a slice of lemon or lime.
Drink water out of a frosted mug or colorful glass.
Grab-n-go flavor packets add variety to water between
meals. Keep a bottle of water in the car at all times. At
work, pack an allotted number of bottled water and set a
goal to finish the pack by the end of the day.

For those who tend to prefer carbonated beverages to plain
water try sparkling water. Not only is it crisp and
refreshing, it satisfies the need for carbonation. Just
make sure you choose a sparkling water that does not
contain sugar or fruit juice to avoid additional calories.

So if your goal is fat loss, combine a total body strength
training program, supportive nutrition and some interval
training with your magic fat loss potion and you're
destined for success!

Hypnosis for Weight Loss : My Experience

The subconscious mind is a subject of much debate. Some
say that it wields more power over our everyday actions
than we know, while others discount it as more or less an
additional complexity of the vast human mind to be
pondered, but nothing so powerful as to control our every
choice. This is where self for weight loss hypnosis enters
the picture.

First, let's start off on a little history lesson on
hypnosis. Hypnosis as we know it today actually has its
roots (arguably) in several different cultures, at around
the same time, hundreds of years ago. It's roots go back
to early Hindu cultures as well as early European
civilizations as a means of healing one's body and treating
ailments.

Here's where it gets interesting. It is believed that
hypnosis may have crept into modern medicine and common
practice inadvertently through what may have been the first
failed "placebo" experiment on whether magnet therapy
worked or not, performed hundreds of years ago at the
request of the medical community.

Magnet therapy was put into practice and was believed to
have helped heal many people's ailments until it was put to
the test and found that the only effect it had on anyone
was what was called a "placebo" effect.

A placebo effect is basically an effect that is
physiologically real (you can feel it physically, and your
body obeys the suggestion of the mind), but is in fact
simply brought on, or conjured up, by the human mind. It
is essentially the power of suggestion at work, and that is
exactly what hypnosis is - the utilization of the power of
subconscious suggestion.

Hypnosis is a deeply relaxed "trance" state where
suggestions made verbally by the hypnotizer are grabbed by
the subconscious mind of the person being hypnotized, and
the power of suggestion is such that the subject's body and
mind obey the "orders" of the hypnotizer, without even
fully and consciously realizing why or how.

I experienced the power that hypnotism can have when I
purchased some weight loss CD's and attempted self hypnosis
as a means to help control my ballooning appetite - and
waistline, and was shocked at how it actually worked and
gave me an unshakable sense of self control and "calm" that
I'd never felt before.

My previous attempts at losing extra weight that I had
gained were not pleasant experiences. I am not
"overweight" by most standards, but I definitely fluctuate
in the ten pound bracket up and down all of the time
because I really do love food. Just experiencing the
different tastes and textures of food is such an experience
to me that I sometimes don't realize that what I'm putting
in my mouth is polluting my body and adding unnecessary
extra weight.

Not only are the foods I choose wrong many times, but I
also can tend to eat too much at one sitting, feeling
bloated and moody afterwards. So, I wanted to take control
of my eating habits again, and had always wanted to try
self hypnosis to see if it could help me gain that quiet
inner strength and that little voice guiding me to make the
right decisions, and quelling my appetite.

And it did. The first time I listened to the it I was, as
instructed in a deeply relaxed state which was accomplished
by following the hypnotist's instructions to take several
deep breaths. The soothing voice was accompanied by what
sounded like trance music, and I became so relaxed I
actually dozed off (which she said was ok, in fact,
expected).

I did it right before bed, and I woke up the next morning
pretty much forgetting that I had listened to it. I went
through my day without the usual cravings for sugar and
high fat, high salt foods that usually litter my day at
work due to stress or boredom with mundane tasks (can't we
all identify with that).

I tend to have somewhat of an oral fixation, especially
when at work, meaning that I like to always be chewing or
sipping on something. But I noticed this overwhelming urge
did not hit me, and instead I just sipped on my water and
some hot tea, and only ate when I was truly hungry.
Strangely enough, I didn't even have my usual mid-afternoon
craving for chocolate.

Often times I'd be hitting up the candy machine for Peanut
M&M's around that time, and the afternoon came and went
without the urge to eat chocolate. I thought this was a
major accomplishment for me, but I also wondered if it
wasn't some of that "placebo effect" entering in.

Since I knew that I had listened to the hypnosis CD, was I
actually "talking myself into" believing the hypnosis was
cutting my appetite and shaping my food decisions as well
as my intentions to work out?

Well, isn't that what hypnosis is - that is, a placebo
effect in itself? I suppose it doesn't really matter,
because the end result is that I saw a dramatic change in
my eating habits, all seemingly without the pain of a
constant internal struggle to not eat.

As far as the root cause of it, I really could care less.
It accomplished the task of giving me a renewed sense of
self control and eating to live, not living to eat, and
that is all that matters in the end!

7 Fat Loss Strategies For Busy Moms

Would you like to "jump start" your metabolism and lose
your 'mommy belly' once and for all?  If so, the following
seven tips are exactly what you need to improve your
workouts and ignite your metabolism. Try some or all of
these tips, but beware, the result may be a number of
admiring second glances and the need to pull your 'skinny
jeans' out of the closet.

1. The majority of your workouts should be composed of
free-weight, bodyweight or cable exercises.

Compared to machines, free-weight, bodyweight and cable
movements often require more skill, create muscular
balance, and have a greater metabolic cost. For example, it
is more difficult to balance the weights, and to coordinate
muscles when performing free-weight exercises. Although
this may sound like a disadvantage, it is actually a
benefit. By balancing and stabilizing free-weights or
cables you are working more muscles through a greater range
of motion resulting in more muscles developed and more
calories burned.

2. Use exercises that work more than one muscle at a time.

When focusing on fat loss, you can't worry about "shaping"
exercises, instead you should use exercises that'll get you
the biggest bang for your buck and work as many muscles as
possible. Isolation exercises can be used at the end of a
workout to work on a specific target area, but they just
serve to supplement your core movements.

Virtually every savvy fitness professional is privy to the
fact that compound exercises recruit the most muscle groups
for any given body part.

If you seek lean, toned muscles and the increase in
metabolism that comes with them, you must choose exercises
that work as many different muscles as possible. One of the
main reasons why squats are superior to leg extensions for
improving your body is that they also work your butt,
hamstrings and inner thighs in addition to toning your
quadriceps while leg extensions focus on just the front of
your thigh and don't really offer any other benefit. That
same rationale hold true for arm exercises too.  That's why
dumbell presses and dips will are more valuable for your
arms than triceps kickbacks and pushdowns.

A good rule of thumb is to use movements that will allow
you to use the most weight. These will have a systemic
effect on your body that'll help maintain or increase your
lean muscle, and in turn ignite your metabolism.

3. Pair exercises.

Pair your exercises together so that you alternate between
upper-body exercises and lower-body exercises or between
exercises that target opposing muscle groups (e.g. chest
and back).

This type of approach will keep your workouts short and
efficient by eliminating much of the downtime that comes
between sets of a single exercise since you are working on
one movement while resting from another.  This approach can
also yield huge benefits in your mission to burn fat. Since
you'll constantly be moving and keeping your heart rate
elevated, you'll be burning far more calories than you
would during a typical workout.

4. Keep your reps between 8 and 12.

Through research, it has been determined that the best
range for building lean muscle is roughly between 8-12
reps. Since the main focus of your resistance training
efforts is to gain lean body mass and stimulate your
metabolism, this rep range fills the bill perfectly. "High
reps for tone and fat loss" is one of the biggest (and most
unproductive) training myths! Somehow the aerobics, yoga
and Pilates' community have convinced us that when we
perform bodyweight exercises or light resistance training
for high reps, our muscles magically take on a beautiful
shape without growing or bulging. On the other hand, if you
challenge yourself with moderately heavy weights, your body
will take on a bulky, unflattering appearance. If you
believe this, you probably still believe in the Tooth Fairy!

5. Rest only 30 to 60 seconds between sets.

When you keep the rest periods under one minute, it's
easier to stay focused on the task at hand and keeps your
heart rate elevated. In addition, it forces your muscles to
recover more quickly between sets, along with keeping your
nervous system revved up.

If your first movement in an upper/lower body pair is
squats, you might want to rest 60 seconds before attempting
your second movement. However, if your first exercise is a
fairly "easy" exercise, like lat pull downs, you might only
wish to wait 30 seconds before doing the second part of the
pair.

6. Perform total body workouts.

You must drop the notion that muscle groups work
independently of one another. Muscles work together and
should be trained that way.  Besides, not only does this
approach mean less time in the gym, but by working the
whole body three times per week, you'll be maximizing the
fat burning effect of your program.

7. Cardio is not the cure-all for fat loss.

Cardiovascular exercise aids in the creation of a caloric
deficit, but the caloric expenditure during cardio is
temporary. Strength training addresses the core of the
problem by permanently increasing the rate at which the
body burns calories by adding muscle. The best programs
will include both strength training and cardiovascular
training, but the core or the programs effectiveness is
resistance training.

Take these strategies and incorporate them into your
workout routine.  Not only will you save a lot of time, but
you'll also soon see a leaner and more toned body.  Not to
mention a few more turned heads and the re-emergence of
your skinny jeans.

The Future of Fat Loss

Look good naked without stepping a foot in the gym.  That's
the new American dream right?  We are a nation obsessed
with the eternal quest to look great with minimal to no
effort.  Whether you are just too busy to make it to the
gym everyday, or simply need that little extra help with
your own diet and workout routine, there is good news on
the horizon for all of us, new drugs!  These upcoming
pharmaceutical releases are gearing up to take the fat loss
market by storm over the next couple of years so read up
and get a head start on your beach body competition.

Pramlintide - Already available in the U.S. as a diabetes
treatment, Pramlintide is being studied by Amylin
Pharmaceuticals for its ability to produce a feeling of
fullness when eating and reduce weight. A synthetic form of
a satiety hormone, research has shown that when it's
injected into people's bodies before a meal they eat less,
even when given foods they crave. Amylin is also looking at
how the drug works in combination with other hormones.

CP404 - CP404 is a calcium channel blocker that works as a
nasal spray to block olfactory activity, or our sense of
smell, and reduce food intake. Compellis Pharmaceuticals is
developing the drug, which has only been tested on mice so
far, says Compellis CEO Chris Adams. The company plans to
begin human testing this year.

Orlistat (Xenical and alli) - A lipase inhibitor, Orlistat
promotes weight loss by preventing the digestion and
absorption of some fat from food. Unabsorbed fat is then
excreted via the stool. It's available by prescription as
Xenical and, since June, as alli, the only FDA-approved
over-the-counter weight loss product. Orlistat side effects
may include gas with oily spotting and an urgent need to
have a bowel movement

CLA - A new meta-analysis by University of Wisconsin at
Madison researchers has shown that supplements containing
conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), on the market for years,
may help people shed fat. It's believed that CLA, a fatty
acid found in foods of animal origin such as beef, modifies
enzymes responsible for storing and burning fat.
Supplements are a good vehicle for CLA because it would be
difficult for people to get enough of the fatty acid
without loading up on saturated fat.

PP - Researchers at the Imperial College, London, are
looking at how gut hormones--pancreatic polypeptide (PP) in
particular--affect appetite control. The hormones are
released when a person eats, acting as neurotransmitters
that tell the brain to stop eating.  Though it's being
developed in the form of an injection, it's possible in the
future that it could be produced as a patch or gum.
Researchers hope to start phase one trials early next year
and get the drug on the market in three to five years.

Y2R blocker - Georgetown University Medical Center
researchers have been able to use nontoxic chemical
injections to add and remove fat from lab mice. To add fat,
researchers injected the neurotransmitter NPY into the
mice. It's believed that NPY is activated during stress,
causing apple-shaped obesity and metabolic syndrome. But
administration of the receptor Y2R into the mice's
abdominal fat prevented both results, melting the fat.
Researchers hope that blocking Y2R might work the same way
in humans.

Rimonabant (Acomplia) - Approved for use in the European
Union as an obesity treatment, rimonabant selectively
blocks the CB1 receptors of the endocannabinoid system.
This system of receptors in the brain and body helps
regulate food intake and how the body uses and stores fats
and sugars. In clinical trials, rimonabant has been shown
to reduce body weight, with side effects such as nausea and
anxiety. Sanofi-aventis withdrew its FDA new drug
application for rimonabant last month but is working toward
resubmitting.

Suppressing Rip140 - Research has shown that suppression of
receptor-interacting protein 140 (Rip140), a nuclear
hormone co-repressor that regulates fat accumulation, can
accelerate fat burning in animals and fat cells. Initially
the subject of experiments at Imperial College in London,
RXi Pharmaceuticals is developing the approach as a
potential obesity or type-2 diabetes treatment.

Cetilistat - Under development by Alizyme, Cetilistat is a
gastrointestinal lipase inhibitor that blocks fat digestion
and absorption, causing weight loss. Clinical trials have
shown that the drug has fewer side effects than Xenical,
according to Alizyme. Cetilistat is currently being
prepared for phase-three clinical development.

Meridia - An oral prescription medication, Meridia works by
affecting the appetite control center in the brain. Most
people who lose weight on the drug, in combination with
diet and exercise, do so in the first six months of
treatment, according to its maker, Abbott Laboratories.
Common side effects include headache, dry mouth,
constipation and insomnia.

So, have you scoped out the ones that sound like the next
big wonder drug?  Well don't get too excited, these need a
little more time before they are readily available to the
public but keep your eyes peeled for them over the next few
years.  And remember that being healthy is more than just a
weight game.  Be active, be fit, be healthy, and you will
look good naked.  The ultimate goal right?

How to Lose Weight Like the Competitors in Fat March and Biggest Loser

For many seeing shows like Fat March of the Biggest Loser
can be an inspiration to start their own weight loss
program. The problem lies in once you are excited to start
now what. It can be hard for the average watcher to
understand what is important and what achieves results from
watching the show. It is easy to say eat well and exercise
on a regular basis though what does that really mean.
Losing weight doesn't have to be overwhelming if you
understand the basic principles from the shows and apply
them to your lifestyle.

The first biggest change for most people's diets which is
vital is eating 5 small meals. The personal trainers
talked about in Fat March about how until people create the
habit of eating throughout the day nothing else matters.
Eating small meals trains your body to burn fat and shuts
off your body's ability to store fat.

In Fat March we got an up close and personal experience of
what happens when you don't eat five small meals. One of
the fat marchers took all his food and ate it all at once.
This spiked his blood sugar which then your body stores the
food as fat. Once your body stores the food as fat you get
low blood sugar which is the crashing that most people feel
around 3 pm from too much food at lunch. During Fat March
because the competitor was doing a ton of walking he passed
out from too low blood sugar and had to go to the hospital.
Most people don't understand how negative not eating 5
small meals is because they don't have as serious instant
consequences because they are sitting at their desk working
when their blood sugar drops.

Until you start eating 5 small meals your body will be in a
constant roller coaster of eating too much and storing fat
into your fat cells. The good thing is that if today you
eat 5 small meals you body will today start to burn more
energy and go in the right dirction.

So what do I want in my 5 small meals?

The Biggest Loser show does a good job of showing cooking
for good healthy meals. The goal of each meal is to get
complex carbs for energy, lean protein to rebuild muscle
tissue, and fruits or vegetables for nutritional value.
The size is relative to your metabolism, as you get a
faster metabolism your portion will increase not decrease
which is why starving to lose weight doesn't work. For
most Americans take your lunch cut it in half and eat the
other half 3 hours later.

Yes you do need to eat carbs. Carbohydrates are your major
source of energy from food. When you don't eat carbs even
if you eat protein your body will go into a starvation
response and store fat and burn muscle for energy. Complex
carbs are stored in the muscles cells and are rice, pasta,
grains, and potatoes.

One reason many fad diets cut carbs is because carbs absorb
water. If you cut carbs out of your diet you will lose
weight immediately. You may think that is good though your
weight loss is only water. Most fad diets do this knowing
that people want to see instant results on the scale and
cutting carbs can 5-15 pounds of water out with in a week.
Because of poor diet habits and too much consumption of
caffeine drinks, it is estimated that 75% of Americans are
in a constant state of dehydration. Which means for the
average American who adds carbs back to their diet they may
gain 5 pounds of just water back right away. This healthy
and their bodies were unhealthy everyday from a lack of
later. If you cut carbs it doesn't matter how much water
you drink, you don't have the carbs to absorb it. Low carb
diets that drink a lot of water go to the bathroom more
often.

5 Diet Myths


Excess weight is a common topic of discussion at coffee
tables, amongst friends, family members, at work... Let's
have a look at the most common weight loss myths people
believe in:

Myth 1: Food eaten in the evening contributes more to
weight gain.
Wrong: It is the amount of calories accumulated throughout
the day, but the time of the day you consume those calories
is of minor significance. If you were on low calories
during the day you can afford a dinner without worries.

Myth 2: To skip breakfast or lunch is good for staying slim
or reducing weight.
Wrong: It is a bad idea to skip breakfast as your cravings
for food will increase so much till lunch time that you
will probably forget all you have pledged and eat a lot
more than you should. The same applies to skipping lunch.
If you still manage to stay away from all snacks and sweets
during the afternoon but your hunger will be out of control
latest at dinner time. Thus you will add more calories than
you would with regular meals.

Myth 3: Five meals instead of three are a better way to
lose weight.
Wrong: It makes no difference how many meals you have a
day. Important is that you limit the total amount of
calories. If you have more meals it might be easier for you
to control hunger. But on the other hand, if you are having
a hard time to resist eating more food than you should, you
might be better off with three meals only. It is giving you
more control while providing less temptation.

Myth 4: The metabolism of people over 40 is slowing down,
thus putting on weight is unavoidable.
Wrong: True is that muscle mass gradually decreases with
age if people do not exercise. As a result, increasing fat
deposition develops a risk factor for your health. Regular
exercise can help you to prevent that. A higher age is
therefore no excuse for putting on weight. It only takes
more effort to keep up your exercise routine and maintain a
healthy level of fitness.

Myth 5: If sport activities and regular work out keeps you
fit and slim, so you don't have to care about your choice
of food.
Wrong: The number of calories being burnt during workout is
mostly overestimated. To burn 300 calories one has to swim
for 40 minutes. Besides that, somebody wanting to loose
weight has to burn the daily calories of the food eaten and
additional calories from stored fat cells. That's a hell of
a task. One kilo of fat is equal to 7000 calories. To burn
such an amount one will have to work out on his home
trainer for 12 hours. This means, losing weight merely
through exercise is hardly achievable. But it is important
to maintain a regular exercise routine. It helps you to
build up muscle and increase metabolism, which in return
burns more calories. Besides this you will also feel a lot
better. But there is no way around limiting your calorie
intake. A combination of both will bring you a step closer
to your goal.

One last word: Most weight loss efforts collapse quite
quickly because people set unrealistic goals. Go for small
steps, easy to achieve and a glitch once in a while is
nothing bad. Just get back on track and never give up!
