5 Natural Weight Loss Secrets

If you're reading this, you probably don't need anyone to tell you that being overweight is not only bad for your self-esteem, but is downright hazardous to your health. Pre-mature death as well as many diseases are linked to obesity, including diabetes, heart disease, cancer, gallstones and more. However, if you're like most overweight people, you have been trying to lose weight for a long, long time, but have not been successful. Or perhaps you go on diets and do lose weight, only to gain it back again and then some -- the yo-yo diet syndrome that many experts say is more dangerous than simply being overweight. You may be like many people, who become desperate, and use synthetic supplements, drugs or surgery that can be damaging to your health in other ways.

Well, read on for some natural tips we have in this article that can help make it easier than you think to lose weight and keep it off! And if you do it naturally, like we are suggesting, you will most likely end up far healthier at the same time, with more energy and vitality than you've had in a long time*.

Natural Weight Loss Secret #1: Don't Eat Low Fat!

Are you still caught up in the low fat mantra of the past couple decades? Do you think you can't eat much fat if you are trying to lose weight? These ideas are still so prevalent in our media and in the low fat products you see everywhere, that it's no wonder you may still believe this. However, according to the facts, more people are overweight now than ever before, it's being called an epidemic! And this has happened while we Americans cut back from 40 percent to around 32 percent fat in our diet. Low fat diets actually tend to promote weight gain, so add some good fats back into your diet today!

Natural Weight Loss Secret # 2: Add Virgin Coconut Oil To Your Diet

Many people have reported that consuming Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) helps them to lose weight*. They often see increased energy levels and fewer cravings for carbohydrates and sweets*. According to a 2000 report published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, you burn off coconut oil three times faster than many other common fats. This is because it's so high in Medium Chain Fatty Acids (MCFAs). So try some virgin coconut oil today! Many experts suggest 2 to 3 Tablespoons minimum per day.

Natural Weight Loss Secret # 3: Avoid All Vegetable Oils

Did you know that when farmers were looking for a cheap way to fatten their animals for market, they began using corn and soybean oils? Let me repeat, farmers used vegetable oils to FATTEN up their animals for market! It did work, but they quickly discovered that in addition to fattening up their animals, these oils caused problems with the animals' thyroid glands and they subsequently developed many health problems, including cancer. The fact that polyunsaturated oils encourage tumor growth is well known among researchers. It is also well known that consumption of vegetable oils depresses our immune system, so well known that vegetable oils have been used for intravenous injections to suppress immunity in organ transplant patients. So get rid of vegetable oils in your diet!

Natural Weight Loss Secret # 4: Rev up Your Metabolism by Nourishing Your Thyroid

Research points to an under active thyroid gland as perhaps the number one cause of weight problems in America today, especially among women. That's because the thyroid gland controls body temperature and metabolism, and when the thyroid is sluggish, body temperature and metabolism tend to slow down. You can have an under performing thyroid even if it is undetectable on a blood test. So nourish your thyroid with natural sources of iodine and avoid thyroid blocking foods like soy and peanuts. You may also want to get a fluoride water filter if your water is fluoridated, as fluoride reduces thyroid function. Coconut oil, on the other hand, because of its metabolism stimulating properties, seems to be an excellent thyroid system builder*.

Natural Weight Loss Secret # 5: Avoid All Highly Processed, Refined or Chemically Altered Foods

Some people find they start shedding pounds simply by eliminating the following foods from their diet:

  • Refined sugars like sucrose, corn syrup, dextrose, fructose, etc.
  •  
  • White flour
  •  
  • Vegetable oils like corn, soybean and canola
  •  
  • Artificial sweeteners and fats like saccharin, aspartame and olestra

These foods, besides being bad for your health, have been implicated in many studies as actually causing weight gain, so you really need to stay away from them. They are found in most packaged foods today, like sauces, salad dressings, cakes, cookies, frozen entrees and more. Some people have had a hard time losing weight until they cut out all of these foods from their diets. If you have a problem eliminating sugar, make sure you are consuming enough minerals, especially chromium and vanadium. You also want to make sure that you are getting enough protein and fat, including some coconut oil. These ideas should all help you with your sugar cravings*.

Weight Loss Secrets of Thin People

Ever wonder what weight loss secrets those seemingly naturally thin people know? Is there something special about them that makes it so easy for them to maintain their weight while you struggle to even lose a pound?

If so, you're not alone. Many people wonder what the big weight loss secret is to getting lasting results that doesn't take years and hours of exercise to achieve.

Must you really dedicate your whole life to the gym just to see the scale drop a couple of pounds? And is it possible to actually eat like a semi-normal person while losing weight?

You bet.

If you know how to do it correctly.

If you don't, well, then you're likely out of luck.

Weight loss is a science and if you don't have that science working for you, it's unlikely you're going to see good fat loss results.

Here are some of the biggest weight loss secrets that thin people know, which you may not.

They Eat More Non-Meat Source of Protein

Non-meat source of protein? If that confused you, it's okay. It sounds confusing, but you just need to think carefully here.

By non-meat sources of protein, I'm referring to egg whites, fish (since they technically are not game meat), fat free cottage cheese, and whey protein powder.

These sources of protein are all excellent for the body and are incredibly low in both fat and calories.

In order to have the most success with fat loss, you want to be sure you're eating enough protein, and this will help keep the calories down.

They Move More Throughout The Day

Think those naturally thin people spend hours in the gym? Most of them don't.

Instead, they try and space out their activity throughout the day, moving more on a regular basis.

They might have active jobs - or if they don't, they're getting up more, moving around, shifting positions in their desk, and so on.

All of these will help increase their total calorie burn, making it easier for them to see weight loss quickly.

They Don't Starve Themselves

Starving yourself is just bad news all around.

First, it slows the metabolism. If a slow metabolism isn't the quickest way to not get results, I'm not sure what is.

Second, it causes a loss of muscle mass tissue. What does muscle mass tissue do? Burn calories. Lose that muscle and you lose out on calorie burning benefits. Not good.

Finally, starving yourself sets you up to obsess about food, which makes dieting very hard. If you're so fixated on what you're not eating, chances are, you're just going to give in and eat it - or else eat everything else in sight to try and overcompensate for not eating it.

Starving spells trouble for weight loss.

You should never do this - you shouldn't have to.

A proper diet won't make you feel like you're starving yourself because you'll be eating foods that stroke the metabolism as well as satisfy your cravings.

When you can combine both of these factors, that's when you'll see good weight loss results.

The Number 1 Weight Loss Secret

People make weight loss a lot more complicated than it really is. They look for weight loss secrets which will help them lose weight fast and easy. And while there are some weight loss plans which provide excellent results, the truth about shedding pounds is much simpler and can be summed up in 1 sentence: burn more calories than you put in.

Of course, that may look easy on paper, but if was so easy why is the world getting fatter and fatter?

The reason is that most of the people focus solely on the physical aspect of losing weight and fail to take into account the no. 1 secret to weight loss: the emotional aspect.

Sure, you can workout all you want and try to eat health food all day long, but if your relationship with food is all wrong, then sooner or later, you will eat too much of something without noticing, or just find yourself munching away on some fatty food and disrupt the entire fat loss process.

Just think about it, with all of the diets around and the advanced exercise machines we have, our society is still growing fatter and fatter. Why? Because people aren't eating just to satisfy their physical hunger but also their emotional one.

The no. 1 secret to fat loss is that you must control how your emotions are affecting your hunger. If you do that, than weight loss becomes easy because once you break the connection between emotions and food, you will no longer experience cravings. When you reach that point, it will be easy for you to burn more calories than the amount you take in since you will completely control what you eat.

Before you even start another diet program, you need to make sure that you can avoid emotional eating. Otherwise, no diet and fitness plan will ever help you. That's the no. 1 weight loss secret.

Top Weight Loss Secret

How many times have you been online looking for that elusive top weight loss secret - five, ten, twenty times or more? It's a bit like looking for a needle in a haystack. There are patches, pills, supplements, exercise programs, diet regimes, hypnosis, acupuncture etc. etc. All of them claiming to be the one and only top weight loss secret. But you know what? None of them will work without the very simple, top weight loss secret I'm going to reveal in a moment - and which you will realise you already knew anyway.

A doctor once said to me that losing weight, especially if you have a lot of weight to get rid of, is one of the hardest things to do. Unlike quitting smoking, when, in theory at least, you can throw away the packet of cigarettes before you go to bed and never smoke again; when you want to lose weight fast - or slow - it's not as if you can wake up the next day having lost 50 pounds! So, what is the one top weight loss secret which will get you actually losing weight?

Well, first of all, even if you are morbidly overweight, which means it is life-threatening, unless and until YOU decide you want to lose weight, nothing much is going to happen. Even to agree to an operation, it is still YOU who must decide it is time to do something. Hopefully, you won't get to that stage.

What is going to make you decide then?

Is it your family? After all, I'm sure they don't want to see you struggling to walk upstairs, puffing as you climb hills with your dog or try to run and play with your children. How about the effort involved when you wriggle in and out of clothes that are just that bit too small. Yes, perhaps it's pressure from your family and friends which will help you. But that's not the top weight loss secret.

Is it the difficulty with doing other every day things that will persuade you? Just sitting comfortably can be difficult if the chair is too small, or not strong enough to support your weight. Squeezing through narrow doorways and aisles might seem amusing when turning sideways makes no difference; but really, it's no fun, is it?

How about looking at the positive side of having lost a lot of weight? Is this the top weight loss secret?

You will be able to dress more elegantly, wear more modern styles and look fabulous in them too. You will have more energy, flexibility, stamina - to do all those things you ever wanted to do. How about getting really radical and take flying lessons (there's a weight limit), or perhaps a parachute jump appeals. Horse riding; yes it is possible for big people to ride big horses, but you still need to be very fit. There are lots of action sports which you will be able to do when you are thinner and lighter.

Men or women - won't you just look so good beside your partner when you go out together?

OK, so these are just a few incentives. But they still are not the top weight loss secret I'm going to reveal - right now...

Here it is. The top weight loss secret is to 'accept that it is going to be hard'.

Let me repeat that.

The top weight loss secret is to 'accept that it is going to be hard'.

Once you realise that, then you can take the next step and do something about losing your weight. But if you think it is going to be easy, then you are less likely to succeed and more likely to become demotivated. If you know it is going to be hard to begin with, then the only way forward is positive.

Once you realise that losing weight will take effort and hard work, then it simply becomes a matter of taking the steps necessary to achieve it. Whether that be through changes in your eating habits, an exercise program, altering your attitude to food or whatever system you decide is right for you. You've done the difficult bit - you've realised it is going to be tough - so now becomes simpler. You can knuckle down and just get on with the task in hand.

This top weight loss secret is the one thing that needs to be accepted before everything else that you do to lose weight. Once you grasp this, then you are already well on your way.

Five Weight Loss Secrets to Start the New Year

Are there really weight loss secrets? Some may agree with this and others will disagree but what I am about to show you is a simple way that I stumbled upon a simple secret, well my friend's secret actually, that has helped me to shed ten pounds in ten days.

After reading many e-books, and books covering weight loss, I was becoming so frustrated with all the nonsense that they were describing. Many spoke of Low-Carb diets, I also tried that, it was more or less starving myself to death, and you know I am the type who loves cakes, and just about anything sweet I can get my hands on. The weight loss information that some of the books provided were very poor.

Okay, now back to my story...

I must be honest, a good friend of mine is who told me about a simple way to loose weight, that did not involve any type of harsh dieting. At first I did not believe him, but I listened anyway, and pretended not to be interested.

That evening I got home and decided to do a little browsing online, I started doing research for weight loss advice, and came across some very informative web sites, that really made me think.

Now, to be honest, much of the weight problems that I am facing are simply because of my own eating habits. But, the big question that lingers in my head is; How do I stop myself from over eating?

I just love food, and I know you do too, otherwise you would not be reading this. To end off this long winding story, I would like to share a few of my weight loss secrets with you that worked well for me:

1. Start the morning with a light breakfast
Your breakfast should consist of crackers and a couple fruit (a banana and an apple), no bread or sausage, steak or eggs.

2. For lunch, a piece of steamed fish and vegetables
Lunch is where we get to add a little more substance to our meal, you can have steamed fish and vegetables or baked chicken( no oil or butter) with vegetables.

3. A little exercise to get the blood pumping
You have to get off the couch and start doing some type of exercise, it can be just a thirty minute walk or a 30 minute exercise routine at a gym.

4. For dinner, a light tuna or chicken salad
You have to set a shut off time for eating, your last meal should be around 8 P.M. At this time you will have a light tuna or chicken salad. Should you still feel hungry after nine or ten, just eat some fruit, no more meals after the cut off time.

5. Drink a ton of water
Many forget the most important part. and that is to drink as much water as you can daily. You have to eliminate the juices, sodas and all the sweet stuff from your daily routine. Water should become your main drink.

I do hope my weight loss secrets, will help you start the New Year with a bang, because it worked for me, and I do not see why it should not work for you.

4 Weight Loss Secrets You Can Learn From the Biggest Loser

If you've ever watched the TV show, "The Biggest Loser" then you know it's full of drama and makes for great reality TV. Whether or not you like the show, or even watch it, there are 4 secrets you can take away from it and apply to your own failing fat loss plan to make it successful.

1. No matter how overweight you are, you can lose weight. One of the greatest parts of the show is the before and after. You see these amazing transformations occur where a previously obese individual becomes lean and trim, right before your eyes. It shows that no matter how overweight you are (or think you are), you can change your body.

2. It takes more than will power to lose weight. Many of you think you can't lose weight because you lack the will power to do it yourself. You may be right. On the show, personal trainers Bob Harper and Jillian Michael's encourage, push, cajole, and sometimes even force the contestants to lose weight. Many of the contestants would not achieve their dramatic weight loss if not for the determination of Bob and Jillian.

3. You need a someone to guide you. On the show, most of the contestants coming into the show knowing next to nothing about losing weight. That's where Bob and Jillian come in and design comprehensive diet and nutrition plans for each contestant to follow. There's no way the contestants could design their own weight loss plans on their own. They need the expertise of Bob and Jillian.

4. You need motivation. On the show, the motivation comes from not wanting to be on the losing team during the team portion of the show, and also the contestant's team mates, their trainers, and the $250,000 they could potentially win.

If you thought reality TV couldn't teach you anything, think again - I just showed you 4 weight loss secrets of the "Biggest Loser" TV show.

You learned that no matter how overweight you are, you can transform your body, and it's going to take will power, whether your own, or someone else's (i.e. a personal trainer) to push you through the tough times. You'll need expert guidance. Seek out a trainer, or educate yourself on the right ways to lose weight. You'll need motivation. You may not have a quarter million at stake, but you do have your health, and that's worth a lot more. Take these secrets and apply them to your own life to achieve your own weight loss transformation.

1.  Eat with your metabolism in mind.  Keeping your metabolism running is an absolute key to rapid weight loss.  Don't slow down your metabolism by starving, eat smaller meals often throughout the day to keep fueling your fat burning fire.

2.  Allow some treats. Most people think they must follow a "perfect" diet in order to lose fast but this can actually work against you.  By allowing planned treats at the right times you can speed your loss.

3.  Exercise - short and sweet. The Biggest Loser looks like it puts an emphasis on long workouts but the workouts that give you the best weight loss results are actually shorter sessions with varied intensity.  Try a walk-jog-run combination on a treadmill or weight lifting which is by nature exercise with bursts of intensity.

4.  Stay motivated.  You have to stay on top of your mental game.  There will be many challenges to face but you can do it with a positive attitude.  Create a mantra like the brothers did.  Theirs was "to become half the men, so they could be twice the men."  This kept them focused on all of the great things that were waiting for them at the end of the journey.

Weight Loss Secrets - What Is The Secret?

Information overload comes to mind when you think of weight loss. It is all over the place and reading too much on the subject will only leave you confused. We want to keep it simple and to the point.

Weight Loss Secrets - What's The Secret?

What is the secret to weight loss? You may ask. The answer is there is absolutely no secret to weight loss. The word "secret" is just a marketing term used by marketers to sell you information you already know. There is only one difference between people losing weight successfully and those who don't. The difference is that you must find a custom eating plan, exercise routine and supplement plan, and then just stick to it and the results will be nothing short of amazing.

Here are some "weight loss secrets", and you don't even have to pay for them:

- Don't eat carbohydrates after 7 pm
- Use 3.2 grams of CLA (Conjugated linoleic acid) daily
- Eat more fibre
- Don't skip meals
- Eat small portions every 2 to 3 hours (This will boost your metabolism)
- Eat more broccoli
- Cut down on sodium
- Cut down on simple carbohydrates (sugars)
- Drink more water
- Remove any visible fat from meat before cooking
- Eat red meat only twice a week
- Cook with Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Avoid fried foods

Simple Carbohydrates

You can use a combination of any of the above as you want. One of my absolute favorites to melt off the fat, is to substitute simple carbohydrates or sugar for complex carbohydrates. Simple carbohydrates are things like sweets, and it causes a spike in your insulin levels and then makes it drop drastically. So you get hungry more frequently if you eat simple carbohydrates.

Complex Carbohydrates

Complex carbohydrates also known as slow release or slow burning carbohydrates include oats, brown rice, sweet potato, etc. They provide you with a steadier release of energy of a longer period of time and thus keep you fuller for longer. The rule here is to substitute simple carbohydrates for complex carbohydrates whenever you possibly can, and they also help with reducing cravings.

The weight loss secrets mentioned in this article are simple, but they do work well. If you follow these simple steps, you will lose weight, but the most important point is to stick with it. I am positive that these "weight loss secrets" will benefit you on your way to weight loss success, and wish you the best of luck.

Celebrity Weight Loss Secret - The One Secret Celebs Use to Get Their Buts in Shape

The number one celebrity weight loss secret that you most likely don't have is... motivation. Yes that's it. Unless you have a really good reason to lose weight you probably won't put 110% of your effort into losing weight. You will cheat, you will delay your diet and you will do it wrong. Until you have the right motivation to push yourself to lose that fat and get into shape, you will and always be where you are right now. See this is precisely the reason why supermodels are so good at starving themselves, it's because the modeling industry is so competitive and it's their source of income. The celebrity weight loss secret works for them because their job depends on being thin. Yours doesn't so what's your motivation?

Be Motivated

If you want to be motivated to lose weight ask yourself right now why do I really want to lose weight? Is it for a wedding? Even if you are trying to lose weight for a wedding, why are you doing it? Is it because you want to look great for all the people that you haven't seen in years? Is it because you need to upstage the other bridesmaids or groomsmen? Notice both examples I gave were external motivating factors. Let me tell you first hand, no motivation is better motivation than intrinsic motivation. If you want to lose weight for your own health, to live longer, to be more limber, to breathe easier, you will want to lose weight fast. Who wants to lose weight for someone else? It doesn't make sense. If you are happy with yourself why would you want to do something for someone else? A celebrity or a models motivation may be money, but money will only drive them so far. What if you had all the money in the world and were trying to lose weight? It wouldn't be a very good motivating tool would it.

The best part is, it's easy and you don't even need to leave your home.

Amazing Weight Loss Secrets For Women

1. Take extra virgin coconut oil

This is not even a true weight loss supplement, but the results are nothing short of amazing for lots of women. What you do is take 1 tablespoon twice a day on an empty stomach. I do it during the mid-morning and the middle of the afternoon between meals.

The healthy fats from the extra virgin coconut oil get used virtually immediately for energy so not only do you not gain weight, but these fats do something to your body that literally forces it to lose 5-6 pounds of fat pretty fast.

2. Spin Around in a Circle Like Kids

This spinning around in a circle affects your Endocrine System's ability to balance out your hormones. Since most people have unbalanced hormones, the spins naturally correct the balance. This leads to your Endocrine System opening up the flood gates to unleash your natural ability to lose weight.

What you do is spin around clockwise with your arms out. Spin until you're slightly dizzy, nothing more. There's more to it than that, but if you do that multiple times a day, you'll prime your body up for quick weight loss.

3. Eat 3 apples a day

Yep, saved the boring tip for last. But guess what, this tip will take off 2 pounds a month for 3 months if you do it. Why? Because apples are high in fiber and water content. They're a perfect snack for curbing cravings and maintaining your energy throughout the day.

1. Hula Hooping

Yep, a cheap $3 hula hoop will help you to lose weight and tone your waist and hips area big time. If you want a belly dancer's type of body, this is the exercise to focus on. Do it for 10 minutes a day.

I personally do it during 2 minute tv commercials. Each 1 hour tv show has about 22 minutes of commercials. So I can get a lot of working out done while still watching tv and saving time from having to drive to and from a gym. As an added bonus, these little mini-workouts actually boost up your metabolism a lot better than 1 longer workout.

2. Hindu Squats

Forget squats with weights on your back, do this faster, no weights version of squats.

What you do is squat up and down as fast as possible while you either swipe or touch the ground with your finger tips. This insures you went down far enough. You'll want to do 100 repetitions within 5 minutes. When you can do that with no problems, increase it to 200 repetitions in under 10 minutes.

This works great because it creates a massive oxygen deficit which forces your body to burn off bodyfat for quick energy.

The Ultimate Weight Loss Secrets!

More than trying to discover where the lost treasure of the pirates is, what people really want to know is that singular weight loss secret that allows them to indulge in whatever they want to eat and still lose weight drastically without even lifting a finger. It is better to swallow the truth pill now, than to keep on searching for a secret that doesn't exist.

It is true that there is no such weight loss secret that will shed all those pounds which you have carefully put on yourself without an effort put in by you. Nonetheless, there are some healthier choices that you can make in life which are not as difficult as hitting the gym for an hour for intensive training. Still these choices won't make you lose weight instantly; you are, however, going to notice a gradual change in yourself which is not only apparent from the outside but from the inside as well.

A weight loss secret is nothing but a true realization of facts that we had known but tried our level best to keep them buried inside our subconscious. We know what kind of food and beverages are wrong for us and yet we still consume them; similarly when we go shopping at grocery stores, we are mostly aware of what we should be buying and yet we don't. Unless we start acting on what we believe is right, there is no fun in trying to lose weight or to search for a super weight loss secret.

Here are, however, some general rules of weight loss that one should follow before beginning a weight loss program.

• Remember to keep smaller and more realistic goals. Don't aim at losing 15 pounds in two weeks; instead your goal should be 1 ½ to 2 pounds a week. This way the task will not appear to be daunting and it is not going to put you off just after a couple of days of working out or dieting.

• Try to make one healthy choice per day. If you used to do a lot of unhealthy snacking, switch it to small healthy meals, like munching on a handful of nuts or eating fruits full of fibre that give you a fuller feeling for long.

• Never try to skip breakfast as a way of losing weight sooner. Not only will you not lose weight soon, you will start gaining weight back and make yourself lethargic. This is because when we starve ourselves, the body switches on to emergency mode as it is not sure whether this starvation is self-imposed or forced upon. The first thing that the body will do is slow down the metabolism in order to reserve whatever energy it can. When the metabolism slows down, the individual becomes unable to burn fat and use up calories. So give yourself a hearty, but healthy, breakfast to keep your body fueled up for the rest of the day.

The Weight Loss Secret That You're Probably Screwing Up

As many of you probably know, I'm in the middle, well not the middle, but the beginning stages of the P90X Workout Program. You can read all of the posts in the P90X category if you wish, but this post has a different goal.

I want to let you in on a weight loss secret that all of the people out there who have had success with weight loss and getting in better shape have mastered. This may be the single thing that is keeping you from being in the kind of shape you want to be in, and I absolutely mean that.

It's not about some magic exercise. It's not about some magic food. And it's not about some magic supplement.

The Right Frame of Mind is Vital to Successful Weight Loss

It's about the way you think each and every day about your life. It's about avoiding rationalization. You see, we all have the built-in natural tendency rationalize why we can do certain things. For example.

"I worked hard all day, so I don't have to mow the grass when I get home." - Think like this too long and your yard ends up a foot tall and you have to pay someone to mow it.

"I got a lot done today, so I don't have to do as much tomorrow." - Think like this too long and you'll get into the habit of never getting anything done.

"I've been eating really well lately, so this pint of ice cream is ok." - Think like this too long and you'll eventually be eating nothing but junk.

I have seen multiple nutrition and weight loss programs fail not because they were poorly designed, but because the people couldn't fight the urge to rationalize their habits. You can't allow yourself to rationalize why you have poor habits if you want to succeed not just in weight loss, but in life.

If you think that because you have had some small success that you are now entitled to go back to the way things were (which probably got you to the point where you're at now) you will absolutely fail.

Now don't get me totally wrong here. There's nothing wrong with working really hard for a week and then rewarding yourself with a "cheat meal," but you must be 100% disciplined about it. You must stick to it. You cannot allow yourself to fall into the trap that most people fall into.

Why We Rationalize and How to Beat it

Why does this happen? Why do we rationalize? Because we need a "reason why" we do the things we do, but most of the time those reasons why are detrimental to our lives, because most of the time they're making us more lazy.

If you say to yourself, "I worked out today, so I'm going to have this cheeseburger," that's not getting you anywhere. That's just erasing all of the hard work you put in with your workout. You might as well not do anything at all if this is the way you think. You're coupling positives with negatives, and that means NOTHING for progress.

Eventually you'll get into the habit of over-rationalizing. You'll think because you ate that cheeseburger yesterday and it was "ok" that you can do it again today. Then you have an over abundance of negatives.

This is exactly how people fall off the wagon.

The Key to Being Successful With Your Weight Loss

To be successful with weight loss, you must be disciplined enough to resist and overcome your rationalizations.

Instead of coming up with reasons why you can eat junk food or be lazy or whatever, you should be thinking about how to turn your positive behavior into more positive behavior.

For example, you should say to yourself, "Hey, I worked out today, so I'm going to reward my body for it's hard work by eating healthy, and then I'm going to do it again tomorrow."

"Hey, I got a lot done today, there's no reason I can't work this hard every day."

This way you're following up positives with more positives and you WILL make progress each and every day.

This one thing is what separates the successful and healthy people from those out there who struggle with health and weight issues every day.

The key to fighting rationalization is the AWARENESS that you are doing it. If you catch yourself saying something to yourself to rationalize a poor behavior, think of what that poor behavior might lead to if you keep it up, and think of what you can do to turn that rationalization into a positive.

Weight Loss Secrets Worth Sharing

Obesity is a huge problem in the US alone. It is said that almost 50% of the adult population are obese. Quite alarming, don't you think? If you are part of this statistics, you have to start thinking about your health and aim at becoming fit. Here are weight loss secrets that you might be interested in knowing.

Do you want to know a secret? Did you know that everything else starts in the mind? No matter how you control your eating or how much you exercise, if your heart and mind is not in sync with what your body wants, you will have a hard time losing weight. Your efforts will fail if you do not put your mind into it.

One of the most important weight loss secrets you need to know is that all successful weight loss journey starts and ends in the mind. It is a decision to make a lifestyle change. Losing weight is a decision that you have to be firm about. No matter how much willpower you have, it will still fail along the way if you are not determined to stick to a healthy lifestyle.

Now that you are aware about how much the mind can control your destiny, so to speak, here are some of the most common factors that define your weight loss quest.

  • Detoxification is very critical. Unless harmful toxins are flushed out of your system, you're never going to lose weight successfully. So detoxify, you need it.
  • Avoiding saturated and trans fats is a must because these can cause inflammations that can hinder the weight loss process. Sources of safe fats are nut, fish, avocados, olives, and seeds.
  • Sleep yourself to weight loss. Sleep and rest are essential factors when you want to shed off excess pounds. A good 6 to 8 hours of sleep is perfect when you want to lose weight. Doctors believe that the growth hormone which is essential in achieving lean body mass is produced while you are asleep.
  • Stress is also a contributing factor to your weight gain. Make sure that you stay away from stressful situations and circumstances. Stress increases the release of the hormone cortisol which in turn triggers blood sugar to shoot up. As a result, insulin levels are increased. Mood swings often result to food cravings to ease stress and change one's mood. Identify things that cause you to feel pressured and stressed out and try to avoid them.

You might also be interested in knowing this little secret - this relates to how your mind works. Have you noticed how hard it is to begin dieting and then as you go along, it gets easier and easier? It is always hardest at the beginning. You have to deal with the pressure and the difficulty during the first few days, but when you get past it, it will just be a breeze.

You have to learn to play with your mind. Create a mantra that you recite every day, soon enough your mind will be in sync with what your body wants and needs - this is one of the most important weight loss secrets you need to know.

The Celebrity Weight-Loss Secrets

It seems one of the main celebrity weight loss secrets is moderation. Many celebrities do actually eat unhealthy food, but because they have enough time on their hands they can work out for a few hours each day. With this in mind they can reward themselves by eating their favorite foods in moderation. A lot find that trying to stay away from carbohydrates only made them crave them more. With a good healthy diet filled with salads and a lot of exercise celebrities manage to keep the weight off while also indulging every now and again.

One of the top Hollywood celebrity weight loss secrets is not drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes, or taking drugs . Many celebrities will appear in public at a heavy weight and then drop it in a few months for an appearance or magazine shoot. When they do not have anything coming up most of them take a break from the workouts and the diets which is why their weight can change so much. So when they do have work on and need to get trim for an appearance, how do they lose weight so fast? The answer is simple. Hard Work! Many will hit the gym with their personal trainers and will carry out a range of exercises including jogging, power-walking, weights and cardiovascular work.


Many experts have pointed out that such dramatic shifts in weight are not good for the body. There are many celebrity weight loss secrets which probably work but how bad is it for your body? I would recommend a sensible diet of fresh foods, limited fat, carbohydrate, and sugar intake and plenty of exercise. Exercising regularly will burn fat and calories so you should make sure you eat enough to keep your calorie intake up without starving yourself of vital nutrients.

10 Weight Loss Secrets to Get Toned Abs

Here they are. The 10 weight loss secrets never before heard to help you get toned abs, and get them fast. OK not really. As if there really were only 10 proven weight loss secrets that no one has ever thought of before. The truth is, there are many ways to getting the body and the toned abs you have always wanted. The three things to remember the most are to work out your ENTIRE body, eat a balanced and nutritious diet, and practice proper sleeping habits. The fat in your stomach is actually a representation of your total body fat. To get the toned abs you want, it is all about losing the fat throughout your entire body.

Aside from those three fundamentals of weight loss, here are 10 secrets to keep in mind in your quest to get toned abs and a better body.

1. Eat breakfast - Establish your eating schedule early in the day and get your metabolism going. By eating breakfast, your body's metabolism gets going early in the day so that you can burn more calories throughout the day while you are active. If you eat your biggest meals late at night when you are less active (sleeping) your body will not burn the calories. Also the more you eat earlier in the day, the less likely you are to eat later in the day.

2. Work out early - Whether it is a full-blown workout or just a morning walk, getting up and moving early actually gives you more energy throughout your day and gets your body working.

3. Cut the coffee - A tip that will lighten yourself and your wallet! Try substituting juice, milk, or - you guessed it - water instead of your calorie-filled latte.

4. Do not neglect lifting weights because you "don't want to get big and strong" - Building muscle is actually the best weight loss secret and for every pound of muscle in your body you actually burn 50 more calories per day.

5. Don't be afraid to sweat - Try pushing yourself and let yourself sweat. You are not trying out for the world's strongest man competition, but that weight is not coming off by sitting on the couch either. If it were that easy, no one would need to lose it

6. Eat slower - It takes your brain about 20 minutes to recognize that you are full. The lesson? Eat your meals slower so that you can recognize that you are full before piling on. Drinking a big glass of water before meals is also an effective way of curbing your appetite.

7. Correct your habits at the grocery store - A simple idea. If you don't buy it, you won't eat it. Try by cutting out just one bad eating habit at the store.

8. No more pop! OK a soda every once in a while is not a terrible thing. However, cutting just one (one!) soda a day for a year can save your body more than 3,000 tablespoons of sugar. That's 3,000 tablespoons of sugar that takes your body a lot of energy to dispose of.

9. Take the stairs - You have heard this one. Simple substitutions in your daily habits can go a long way towards little improvements in your body. Parking farther away, doing calf raises in the shower, or lunges in your hallway all help you lose weight.

10. Play with your kids and your dog - Have fun with your family and your pets! They are always active so be active with them! Weight loss does not have to be boring, you know!

Remember these 10 weight loss secrets and practice healthy living. If you put your body (and your mind!) at work you really can get the toned abs and total body results you have always wanted!

Best-Kept Weight Loss Secrets-Do You believe This

My mother always used to say there were no weight loss secrets. "It's simple! You just put less in your mouth and get off your fat backside a bit more often!" She always did have a way with words, my Mom. But she was only partly right because, some overweight folks I know are very active and are extremely careful with what they eat, yet they still seem to carry the extra pounds despite it all. Then there are those twigs of society who can't put on an ounce no matter what they eat. My sister's a bit like that. Honestly, I've seem more fat on a cold chip.

Because of the way modern society portrays who we are and how we should look, there's an awful lot of pressure on individuals to buy into the slimming game. The problem with this, is that even skeletal people think they're fat, and for them to loose extra pounds in darn right dangerous in some cases. It wasn't so many years ago, that shop mannequins had a bit of meat on their plastic but even these are a flat as a carpenter's board these days.

But all this aside there are growing problems in western societies, not only with overweight adults, but we're seeing a lot of heavy kids around nowadays, and this is really not good. But it all starts with the adults, in particular Mum & Dad. The kids tend to feast on the same stuff as their parents do, so it's little wonder we're facing a major crisis with child obesity. So what are the weight loss secrets that we all yearn for? Perhaps my mother was right and we are becoming a donut munching generations of couch potatoes!

There are always new claims to weight loss secrets, but a true secret is about as probable as a cure for male pattern baldness. If there was a cure-for-all with regards to hair loss, then we'd never see another bald head in our lives (unless through choice of course!). Same goes for weight loss secrets. These can better be described as weight loss plans and there are many of them around, some better than others.

Many folks are so desperate to shed those pounds that they go to extremes. Weight loss pill, lipo suction, having the stomach stitched etc, but these really are last resort measures and all possible alternatives for weight loss should be checked out first, as some of the above mentioned can be potentially dangerous.

The secret to successful weight loss lies with you. Or my mother! Which is not really a secret at all. Despite all the fancy diets and eating plans, there is only one tried and tested method that has never really gone away, and that is to eat smaller portions, and get plenty of regular exercise. Of course, eat healthily too. If you cut down to say having 2 double cheeseburgers and large fries instead of your usual 3, well, it's not really going to help much is it. Additionally, if you embark on a new and healthy eating plan and regular exercise regime in the spring time, but decide to slump back into the couch and return your old eating habits during those winter months, then you may find you will put on more weight than you've ever had before.

Weight loss is just a beginning, but weight maintenance is the solution for a new and slimmer you. Not only will you feel great but you'll look good too. If you're one of those folks who just can't seem to get real slender, then perhaps you're supposed to be a little on the large size. We are all different shapes, weights, and heights, and if someone carries a little extra meat on their bones, but are fit and active regardless, then perhaps the secret for happiness is to simply lose what you can, accept what you can't, and know the difference.

Forget a lifetime of chasing the next weight loss secret and trying to look like string bean. Just concentrate on being you and enjoy who you are. A healthy mind is a healthy body and when you have both, you become naturally active (which is part of being human), and active people are happy people.

Weight Loss Secrets - Will Parasites Make You Gain Or Lose Weight?

Finally you will know why you were never able to get rid of all that extra weight although you have done everything the weight loss experts say to do, tried all the diets, jogged your heels off, starved, sweat and dried out your bank account.

It is impossible for you to effectively conquer your over weight issues unless you are fully aware of what is preventing you from losing the fat, and no, it is not food, neither is it a lack of exercise. It is also the root of all diseases in your whole body. And though you might have heard this before, I will now give you the key the quick weight loss secrets.

Those big fat weight loss 'blockers' are literally 'worms', and they are many. And yes, they are parasites. So don't overly blame yourself for being fat. It isn't totally your fault, until now of course, now that I am revealing to you the absolute what, where, when, why and how to fix all your weight problems.

You must have noticed how, not long after eating a super sized serving of highly delicious food, before it's even digested, you are hungry again? This is how parasites work. Well, my old Webster's tell me that a parasite is that which lives on or in another living organism from which it takes nourishment, causing harm to the host. So, what are the tightly kept weight loss secrets?

These dangerous creatures obviously entered your stomach through your diet and take up residence there, rapidly multiplying for several years, and are responsible for 85% of all the physical, mental and emotional hell that you go through.

Therefore, this Dis-EASE, Dis-comfort, Dis-tress, Dis-grunt, Dis-content, Dis-harmony, Dis-gust, Dis-ability and Dis-FIGURE that you are suffering in your body is primarily caused from years and years of accumulated toxic waste coupled with a fleet of life sucking worms actively breaking down your inner parts and causing instability. You see, we are told all about the supposed nutritional value of our carefully selected food group and all the natural results we should expect but no one explains why things don't happen the way they should. Well, let me briefly explain.

These parasites crave the same nutrients that your body requires from your meal so while you are eating they are also busy grappling down all the healthy nutritious beneficial portion of your meal and storing it in their bodies, thus leaving the 'left over' for your body to work with. No wonder they are so much healthier than you are.

Now remember, they are the parasites, not you. They feed off you, you cannot in turn feed off them so the nutritious meal you just ate was captured and eaten up by these big fat suckers and your body has no access to it. Your body got none of the well prepared balanced diet you just had. That is why you are so hungry, desperate, sick and miserable.

So you kept reaching for more and more food and you are only left with the refuse that your fully nourished inhabitants do not want, the JUNK.

If you are to successfully treat your 'extra weight' problem it is absolutely necessary for you to Kill those suckers, Flush them out and quickly Restore & Revive your body, and after careful research, I found a few very effective and fast solutions for that, all in one shot.

But this is what I did. Having already spent so much money on weight loss products, fat loss magic pills, every diet program on the planet, I was very reluctant to try anything new until I was at least sure of the results so I welcomed the free trial offers and they worked perfectly for me.

Before Weight Loss Secrets Revealed was shared with you, Success and Results were out of your reach but not again. End the depression and frustration with yourself. Try it and prove that losing weight and living a rich healthy life does not have to be an unsolved mystery. Quick healthy fat loss is no longer a secret.

The Greatest Weight Loss Secret of Them All!

Why is weight loss difficult?

If, like me, you've struggled to maintain a healthy weight, you may well have asked yourself just why it can be so difficult. The answer to that question is that the human body is designed to cope with shortages of food and protect itself from starvation. It does this in two ways:

  1. The body lays down fat in times of plenty.
  2. The body slows down its metabolism when food is short so less fat than usual gets burned.

In most of the western world, every day is a day of plenty! If you regularly give way to the temptation to eat too much of the tasty, fattening food available, the inevitable happens and you end up with a fat belly (hips, thighs...)

The body's trick of slowing down its metabolism has sabotaged many a diet! You cut out too much food, the body takes this as a sign of famine and its starvation response is triggered. It doesn't realise that you are trying to shed that fat and tries to conserve it for you. It doesn't know that the 'famine' will end with your next meal. This slowed metabolism means that you have to eat even less food to get the desired result. Cutting out even more food really sends the body into a panic, and the metabolism slows further. You become listless and lacking the energy to do the exercise which would help burn that fat. What's more, you feel terrible. Worst of all, you aren't even losing much weight...

So, how can significant weight loss be achieved?

Some people would suggest achieving weight loss through drugs or surgery. Effective, healthier, safer, cheaper and more pleasant alternatives exist. These make far more sense for most people.

It is possible to lose weight without suffering, it just requires an understanding of how to go about it and the patience to see it through.

People have been successfully controlling their weights for many years, and these are the people you need to copy.

The greatest weight loss secret of them all

If I told you that the secret was to sit and watch your favourite movie with an ice-cold beer in your hand, and you had to do that at least 5 times a week, do you think that you could manage that? I thought so -- I could do that too!

Unfortunately, that is not the secret of losing weight. It's the secret of how a lot of us put it on. There is, however, something that we can learn from that -- we like doing certain things, we don't make excuses to avoid doing them, and those things have consequences. We need to turn that principle around so that it works for us instead of against us.

We all know that losing weight involves eating healthy quantities of healthy food, and getting plenty of healthy exercise, so that isn't the secret either.

No, the secret to lasting, effective weight loss is... (drum roll)... PLEASURE!

It is no use going on some crazy diet because it will drive you mad, and at the first possible opportunity you will give it up and go back to eating what you love. It is no use spending 3 hours a day in the gym if you hate going to the gym! As soon as you hit your weight loss target, you'll start finding very good excuses for why you can't make it to the gym this week, or even this month!

Believe it or not, In the huge array of foods available to us, there are lots of good, healthy non-fattening options that you can get great pleasure from eating. You just need to use a bit of imagination and look for them.

Believe or not, healthy exercise doesn't have to be boring. If you hate the gym, don't go to the gym.

Love playing golf? Play golf, but remember -- this is supposed to be exercise, so carry your own clubs and walk briskly between holes. No golf buggies!

Love dogs? Get a dog. A border collie, or some other breed that needs a lot of exercise -- for this job, lapdogs need not apply! Take the dog down to your local park as often as you can and chase him about, throw frisbees for him. You'll both have a great time, you'll boost your metabolism and burn fat.

Hate dogs, but love cycling? Buy a bicycle and ride it as often as you can! Commuting by bike (if you live within, say,  8-10 miles of where you work) is a great way of losing weight and saving money at the same time.

I don't like golf. I do love dogs, but I can't commit to one -- I travel about too much. I also love cycling and that is my weight loss exercise secret. You need to find something energetic that you love too -- dancing, swimming, hiking... there will be something. Keep looking until you find it, then do it, regularly and with enthusiasm.

Remember, the weight loss secret is to replace the unhealthy things that give you pleasure with healthy things that give you just as much or more pleasure.

Weight Loss Secrets of the Caveman

You may not think it, but cavemen possessed weight loss secrets that we can use today. Without even knowing it, they had the perfect diet and exercise program for weight loss that we can learn from even in today's high tech, modern world.

You see, around 40,000 years ago, mankind had it rough. They were nomads wandering their world, hunting and gathering for food. There were no corner fast food joints or convenience stores open 24 hours a day.

Mr. Caveman couldn't walk to his 'fridge and get a snack. If he, or his family, was hungry, he had to go and hunt down an animal of some kind. They foraged the forests and savannas, or jungles for nuts, berries, tubers, and anything else that was edible.

Let's just say, it was a tough time for mankind, but this is also a point in our history when we were probably the healthiest. Yes, they died young, but not because of weight related issues. They simply didn't possess the medicine to fight diseases the way we do today, nor did they live in safe cul de sacs that protected them against attacks from ferocious animals.

Cavemen were no different physiologically than you and me. If you had a time machine and could kidnap a caveman baby, bring him back to the future, and you could raise him as your own, you wouldn't be able to tell him apart from anyone else.

They didn't sport the heavy eyebrow ridges, nor were they exceptionally hairy as portrayed in certain car insurance commercials. They were like us.

They looked like us, they even had our thinking capacity and though processes. Of course, they were also shaped by their environment, and theirs was a harsh one. Yet somehow, they possessed weight loss secrets we can learn from today.

Their bodies adapted to that environment over hundreds of thousands of years. They never knew when they would get their next meals. It could be tomorrow, it could be next week, so they adapted the ability to store excess calories as fat so they could be used during times of famine.

Of course now, famine in developed countries is extremely rare. Food is plentiful. We don't have to hunt anything if we don't want to, and we definitely don't have to scour the forest for food.

We live in a time when our knowledge of the world is an all time high. But with all of our technology, all of our knowledge, why are we still so fat? Why is obesity so rampant? Why are people dying of weight related problems?

We know what causes us to be fat. We know how not to be fat.

Our ancestors didn't know any of this. All they were concerned with was where their their next meal was coming from, yet rarely would you find a fat caveman. Of course, since I didn't live in that time, nor did anyone else I know, this is merely a conjecture.

But, imagine our caveman ancestor for a second. First of all, they were constantly on the go. They had to in order to just be able to find food since they didn't have the capacity to store food for long periods of time. They also had to carry their belongings with them so imagine carrying a heavy backpack loaded with your worldly possessions, and having to walk several miles per day, every day. Occasionally, they would also have to run very fast, even sprint, to get away from an attacking animal, or perhaps another caveman. Talk about awesome, fat burning workouts.

Now, imagine their diet. They eat several small meals throughout the day consisting of nuts, berries, and protein rich insects (yucky, I know, but very nutritious). They don't eat grains, and they don't eat anything hydrogenated. They never eat sugars which means they never drink soda, or eat candy. They never eat anything made of white flour which means no breads, or doughnuts.

Everything they eat is completely organic and natural. How do you imagine such a person would look like? Would they sport the pot belly so common among modern day humans? Of course not.

On the contrary--they would be very lean, and physically strong with a great work capacity and exceptional endurance. They wouldn't have high cholesterol, or Type II diabetes, or any of the myriad of diseases associated with poor eating, and a fat waistline.

Now imagine if you could transplant such a lifestyle and diet to the modern world, and add today's medicine, and lack of dying from woolly mammoth attacks, you would have the ultimate weight loss program. That's the weight loss secret that the caveman intuitively knew, and somehow we forgot.

The Secret

First off you need to be told right up front that just about any weight loss program will work if you actually use it consistently enough for it to bear fruit. So the problem isn't necessarily with the program rather your use or non-use of it. To solve that we will recommend tips so simple that all they will require from you is the commitment to follow through. In fact two of three methods you already do everyday.

The best fast weight loss secret will require that you commit to doing four things consistently. You will need to honor the commitment to follow through, drink more water, eat more frequently and exercise more. Not complicated but very tedious at least until they become new habits.

Secret Tip #1 - Drink More Water Everyday
Our goal here is to greatly minimize or reduce the amount of calories you take in from drinking. The most basic way to comply with this is to substitute anything you drink now that has sugar in it for water. No large hoops to jump through with this one except maybe the habit you have of drinking soda, fruit juice and other beverages that are full of sugar everyday. This leads to the next secret . . .

Secret Tip #2 - Eat More Meals Everyday
The main intent here is to raise your metabolic rate so that you are potentially burning calories all the time. That includes sitting and sleeping. In order for that to happen you will need to make sure that you change your current eating habits from 2-3 times a day to 5-7 times a day. Along with this you also need to make sure your portions are appropriately minimized and that you don't skip a meal. Doing this will allow you to potentially burn more calories all of the time which is the goal of the next secret . . .

Secret Tip #3 - Exercise More Frequently
Our goal for this part of the secret is two fold. We want to provide another activity that burns calories and we want to improve your general level of fitness. This is accomplished by you making a commitment to exercise at least two to three times a week. This should be an aerobic type of exercise and each session should be 30 minutes or longer.

We have very briefly touched on some effective ways for you to lose weight. The most important one being your ability to honor the commitment of the weight loss program you are currently following.

Three Weight Loss Secrets You Must Know

Getting rid of bad eating habits and remaining motivated are two things that are not exactly easily accomplished in our society, which is dominated by effortless access to junk food while at the same time glorifying skinny 18 year-olds walking down runways. Here are 3 key weight loss secrets that you should incorporate in your daily life and make your weight loss efforts more effective.

#1 Restrain Negative Thoughts

When you are attempting to make any key lifestyle transformation, it is important to hold back any negative thoughts, as to stay motivated you must think positively. Instead of looking in the mirror and thinking to yourself "Hmm...I look fat today", no matter what you feel deep down inside and see in the mirror, do the opposite "Hmm...I think I'm getting slimmer". The mind is an extremely influential instrument, and when focused on positive thoughts, can significantly facilitate your weight loss efforts.


#2 Eat 6 Small Meals per Day

It is well know to the public that consuming smaller portions more frequently (6 vs. 3 meals/day) is healthier and can speed up weight loss, but most do not practice this as they don't really recognize how important this is. Eating six smaller meals a day keeps your digestive system constantly working thus speeding up your metabolism and helping you burn more calories during the day. It also permits you to digest food more effectively, limits your stomach from stretching, and reduces the risk of overeating by eliminating hunger feelings .

#3 Chewing

Chewing more (at least 25 times before you swallow) and increasing the time it takes you to complete a meal will help weight loss in more ways than one. By implementing this, you are enhancing the digestive process, making it more efficient, and shrinking the chance of overeating because you will feel full quicker.

Weight Loss Secrets From Around the World

Are There Really Any Weight Loss Secrets?

No, not really. Every weight loss expert has one or a few pieces of advice that are incorrectly referred to as secrets, though. Most of them are offered in isolation, as if one or even a handful of strategies might be useful without considering other key factors.

It is no surprise that you get advice about exercise from fitness trainers, advice about supplements from supplement manufacturers, advice about nutrition from nutritionists, and advice about drugs from drug companies and medical doctors. Who has the best advice?

One way to evaluate weight loss tips is to see who uses them and where. A recent article in Readers Digest listed 19 such tips from around the world. The short version of that list is:

Serve a side of rice and beans (Brazil)
Fast once in awhile (Indonesia)
Eat at home more often (Poland)
Eat your breakfast (Germany)
Drive less, ride a bike more often (Netherlands)
Eat muesli (Switzerland)
Grow your own garden (Russia)
Use turmeric (Malaysia)
Drink rooibos tea (South Africa)
Eat pickles (Hungary)
Take a weekly family hike (Norway)
Do yoga (India)
Take a daily power nap (Japan)
Make lunch your biggest meal (Mexico)
Spice up your food (Thailand)
Back off of supersizing (United Kingdom)
Eat leisurely, with more conversation (France)
Take up Nordic walking (Finland)
Eat herring (Netherlands)

All of these strategies are beneficial in some way. It seems silly, however, to list any one strategy as representative of a particular country.

Best Weight Loss Solutions

As you can see, the list offers nothing new. No item is a secret. The main question, therefore, concerns which of these is the best for weight loss. My opinion is that, regardless of how well they work, the best ones are the ones that you will actually do. Making lunch your biggest meal may be too inconvenient. Taking up Nordic walking, even on a machine at the gym, may not be especially appealing. Spicing up meals may exceed your limit for foods that burn your palate. You may not even like pickles! Maybe you don't even eat where supersizing is an option, which is a good idea to begin with.

Weight Loss Tips Are Weak and Incomplete

Generally, national magazines offer weight loss advice that is superficial and weak. This list is no exception. Comprehensive advice that explains how to combine diet, exercise, supplements, lifestyle, hormone balance, and many other factors is much more valuable than any list.

The Most Important Components for All Weight Loss Programs

The subject of eating is, all by itself, comprised of multiple variables: what to eat, how much to eat, and when to eat. All of these probably have more impact on weight management than all of the items in the above list combined.

Exercise for fitness generally fails to address weight loss. Indeed, there is no general agreement on what fitness really is. For the purpose of weight loss, exercise must stop and reverse the loss of lean body mass (i.e., muscle mass) that accompanies aging after the age of 25.

Hormone imbalance, beginning with estrogen dominance (progesterone deficiency) and continuing to insulin resistance, leptin resistance, and low levels of testosterone and growth hormone, all of which are important in men and in women, is a key cause of weight gain.

The federal food pyramid is a big, bad joke for dieters. If you eat according to the recommendations of this pyramid, you will look like a pyramid.

Supplements can be very helpful. The best research shows how an ingredient in green tea, called EGCG, directs fat loss. Other top fat loss supplements include chromium, fish oil, and CLA.

These are just some of the more important factors that must be incorporated into a total weight loss program.

The Most Common Missing Weight Loss Secret

The list above comes close to the main missing ingredient in most weight loss programs, because it advocates daily naps. Stress and sleep deprivation are two of the most powerful causes of weight gain. Naps are certainly helpful. However, if the 90 percent or more of Americans who are sleep deprived would do what takes to get a full, restful night's sleep, the rate of obesity in the U.S. would slow down. Unrelieved stress acts like super-glue for hanging onto fat. Good sleep resets our ability to deal with daily stress. It even boosts nightly spikes in growth hormone levels, which has beneficial effects on fat metabolism and dozens of other aspects of human health.

Blast Belly Fat With These 8 Weight Loss Secrets and Keep it Off!

There are many weight loss tips and tricks that people use to blast belly fat, like blotting your pizza with a paper towel (not a bad ideas since it can save you 40-50 calories a slice). However, there are 8 weight loss secrets that those that have loss weight and kept it off swear by...

1. Eat Breakfast

  • Research show that 80 percent of those that lost 30lbs or more and kept it off ate breakfast every single morning.
  • Breakfast wakes up that metabolism for maximum calorie burn throughout the day.
  • Research also shows that dieters that skip breakfast tend to intake more calories throughout the day than those that eat breakfast. Most of those calories come toward the end of the day...double wammy!
  • Don't dismiss this secret...I made it number one for a reason!
2. Eat Every 3 Hours

  • Keeps your metabolism revved up for maximum calorie burn
  • Too many hours between meals can throw you body into conservation mode and slow down your fat burning.
  • Never lets you feel deprived or hungry, which is when we make bad food choices
  • 3 meals and 2 snacks should all include some source of protein
3.Know Your Number

  • This is the hardest for my clients to wrap their brain around. Everyone has an optimal caloric intake number for weight loss.
  • St. Mifflin Jeor formula is the gold standard in the dietitian world (you can Google it, input your info and get your magic number).
  • Many people try to cut as many calories when they are on a diet in hopes of faster result. Wrong! You run the risk of slowing down your metabolism.
  • However, eat too much and you run the risk of not creating a big enough caloric deficit for weight loss.
4.Have a Plan

  • Once you know that number, decide how you are going to divide up the calories throughout the day.
  • Example for a 1500 calorie day
  • Breakfast-300 cal
  • snack-150 cal
  • Lunch-400 cal
  • Snack-150 cal
  • Dinner-500 cal
  • This takes all the guess work out of it and keeps you from going over your caloric intake for the day.
5. Write It Down...at least for a week

  • Yes, keep a food journal of everything that goes in your mouth.
  • This makes you aware and keeps you accountable.
  • You would be surprise how fast a handful here and a handful there adds up.
6. Hit the Weights

  • After 25, we start to lose muscle as we age. The less muscle we have the slower our metabolism.
  • 1 lb of muscle burns about 30 calories at rest while 1 lb of fat burns 2
  • So, the more muscle you have the more calories you burn throughout the day...even when you are sleeping.
  • Do it circuit style- move from one exercise to the next without rest in between. This elevates you heart rate for a combined cardio and strength training session. Not only do you burn more calories this way, but you save time too!
  • This style of strength training also causes what we call "the after burn" affect. In short, you metabolism stays elevated for hours after your workout trying to restore itself to pre-workout state
7. H.I.T.T. Cardio!

  • H.I.T.T stands for high intensity interval training.
  • Sounds complicated but all you have to do is increase your intensity to the point where you can't carry on a conversation very minute or so for about 30-60 seconds on the your machine of choice (alternate btwn high intensity and recovery for about 25-30 minutes).
  • Why this is better...again, it creates "the after burn" affect. It leaves your metabolism at an elevated state for much longer that steady pace cardio .
8. Tell Someone

  • Last, but not least, confide in someone about your weight loss goals and journey.
  • You need a support system...someone to keep you accountable.
  • You need someone to push you out of bed for your AM workout when you don't want to and cheer you on when you reach goals!
I wish I could say #8...the magic weight loss pill, but I can't. I wish it were that easy. I takes a lifestyle change, determination and effort. Follow these 7 weight loss secrets and you will be well on your way to success.
