Losing Weight through Synergy

Posted on May 30, 2010October 31, 2011 by floridav

Weight Loss Synergy This is one of the biggest secrets in the weight loss industry and people have kept it quiet until now. Well, I will not be keeping quiet on this one! Once you know this information, you might as well cancel your gym membership and tell the trainers where to go because you will NOT need them. This will save you money, time, and the disappointment of not reaching the goals that you have set for yourself. Why hire someone that is only going to drag you along? There is nothing more frustrating than having absolutely no results when you pay so much into it with energy and money. So, this will save you a lot.

The most important thing to know about is synergy. Instead of concentrating strictly on one thing, you need to work on something that balances all of the necessary tools to reach your goal. Diet, aerobic exercise, muscle exercise, and allowing yourself to rest and recover from any injuries or even simple exhaustion will work together to benefit you in the long run. This is a synergistic program and it will work for pretty much anyone that doesn’t have underlying issues preventing them from losing weight or getting into the proper shape they need to be in.

If you are only concentrating on one aspect then you are simply not going to benefit. The results may be great for a short period of time like for a wedding, but for a healthy active life where you feel good about yourself physically and mentally? No. You need to hop on the synergistic bus and enjoy what it has to offer you.
The first thing that matters in this type of program is nutrition. Find yourself a nutritionist or do the research that is necessary to find a completely rounded out meal plan. Foods need to be complete in regards to nutrients, functionality, and most importantly they must be thermic. This food needs to be able to burn calories quickly through the digestion process so you take in less calories. Did you know that a calorie is a unit of heat?? They absolutely are so you need to be able to burn these calories until they are almost all gone (don’t want to destroy the good calories). That is why functional meals are important.

The next thing you need to have as a part of this routine is moderate aerobic exercise. If you do twenty minutes of cardio then you will burn fat and it will strengthen your lungs and heart. This is not only a great way to lose weight but it also helps your body to heal and become stronger.

Challenging your muscle is another part of the synergistic route. Get into lifting weights and don’t worry too much about ending up like a stereotypical weight lifter because that certainly won’t happen unless you want it to.? All you really need are a couple of weights to lift every day and build it into your routine. Please remember to use natural movements as that will be most beneficial to your overall progress.

Losing Weight Naturally

Posted on May 24, 2010October 31, 2011 by floridav

Losing Weight Orlando There are a lot of things to keep in mind while wanting to lose weight absolutely naturally. Losing weight naturally means that you will not be taking diet pills or buying weight loss products from television commercials. These are all schemes and gimmicks that do not work for anyone except for maybe a few pounds, but then the weight is regained once done. When considering long term weight loss it is important to consider the natural way. There are a lot of things that need to be changed in regards to life style. It is also not a race so please don’t think you are going to lose a hundred pounds within a month, because that is not realistic or conducive to your health.

There are many natural ways to lose weight and one way is to follow a diet that is low fat and high carbs. Do not fall into the trap of extreme diets where they always end up being a waste of time and energy. These are typically simple changes such as eating whole wheat bread instead of white or eating more fruits and vegetables, cutting back on fatty foods and sweets.
Another tip is to up the exercise. This means maybe getting out there and exercising every single day. You need to be able to incorporate a daily routine, even if it is starting off at 20 minutes a day. Go at your own pace and remember that slow and steady does win the race. Also keep in mind that you should track your progress. When tracking progress, you become more confident and can actually lose more weight while you are learning what works for you. This will be beneficial in the long run. The tracking of the progress is also super enlightening as you realize how much you really are eating and that is always beneficial. This is where you learn that you can and will be able to cut back in certain places.

Moderation is very important when it comes to naturally losing weight, too. Moderation is important for every aspect of your life and it does get beneficial in the long run. On top of moderation, behavior modification is important too. You need to realize what you do that causes it to be so easy to gain the weight. What causes overeating or lack of exercise for you? If you are an emotional eater, how do you fix it so that you are not so emotional all of the time? These are all things that need to be considered when losing weight naturally.

When keeping all of these things in mind that is when you become capable of losing most of the weight that you need to lose. It is also very important to keep a positive outlook on your weight loss goals without having to suffer and gruel over the insecurities that people let have control over their routines. Take a step back and realize you deserve to lose weight and be healthy and that you are capable and it will happen.

Lose Weight and Snack!

Posted on May 22, 2010October 31, 2011 by floridav

Orlando Weight Loss and Snacking A fantastic ways to lose weight is to have healthy snacks that fight off the hunger that you are so used to. It is important to maintain whatever diet you select and with that you can have a few healthy snacks throughout the day to make this happen easily. There are many snacks out there that are low in fat despite how saturated we are with high fat snacks.

With such a busy life that we all lead these days, it is pretty much instinctual to want to have a snack to make sure that hunger goes away. There are many snacks out there that are low in fat so that you don’t have to disregard your diet just to make sure that you are fed. One way to enjoy a nice snack is some natural popcorn without all of the salt, butter, and sugar that is in most popcorn. It has so much fiber in it that it would help with losing weight and there are typically only 31 calories per serving.

Fruits and vegetables are also fantastic ways of snacking without gaining weight. This can help fill your stomach until it is time for dinner and it will also give you a nice boost of energy. Make sure that you change things up so things don’t get all that boring, however. It can be boring having baby carrots every day. Also, don’t be excessive with the dressings and dips as they can be very fatty too. A light fat ranch dressing may be helpful for those with cravings for dressings.

Yogurts are also pretty much the best way to go when it comes to snacking as they fill up and provide calcium and good bacteria that helps with upset stomachs amongst other things like urinary tract infections! If you want something more filling add some cereal or fruits then it will be like a mini lunch that proves to be very filling for that moment in time.
Olives are great when it comes to snacking and they are absolutely packed with vitamins and antioxidants. You can eat a good amount of olives without gaining much weight and filling your tummy in the process. Don’t forget that you can do many things to make them exciting such as adding lemon juice or herbs. However, they are typically best as they are. So, enjoy those to get through the work day.

There are a lot of other low fat treats that you can dig into such as rice cakes, jerky, nuts, and jello. Enjoying a nice low fat snack will give you a good boost. Also, it is best to drink more water than sodas as they are also very fattening. If you lean towards juices, make sure that they are 100% juice because the more natural the better. There are so many things to keep in mind but hopefully this provides a bit of a relief in regards to snacking. Many people think they should cut back on their intake of food, which means no snacking but that is simply not the truth.

They could also be beneficial even if you don’t have any other health issues, because they can help you with your progress and stop you when there are other issues that may pop up along the way.

We are all different and have different reasons for weight gain. If you have tried many different ways and nothing had worked, there could be underlying issues that cause these weight problems. It is imperative to get the proper tests for this, especially if you are female. There could be thyroid issues or Poly cystic Ovary Syndrome that cause weight gain amongst other reasons, so covering all of the bases is important.

If you want to get started in a safe way then start by walking and then slowly but surely you will be able to build up your ability to do more. Maybe walking an hour a day will help you. Seeing the sights and listening to an MP3 player will help the time go by quickly like nothing even happened.

Weight loss does vary but on average a person can lose up to twenty percent of their body weight in a year.

Eating or cheating?

Posted on May 16, 2010November 11, 2024 by floridav

Life happens. Yes, it does. Sometimes life just does not allow for perfect healthy eating all of the time. So, when you are on a diet and you end up eating that slice of pizza or Christmas dinner–don’t be too hard on yourself because it is just a part of life. So keep that in mind, but also keep in mind that even if you do end up slipping up you should just pick right back up where you left off. Don’t give up!

Many people begin to feel guilty if they skip a work out or end up eating something that is on their “do not eat” list. Many people feel like they have completely destroyed all of their work, but there is probably nothing more wrong than that. If you are one of those people, stop that! Stop feeling guilty and stop giving up! One fatty meal or skipped routine is not going to destroy everything you have worked so hard for, you just need to stop feeling so down on yourself and get back on track!

Yes, we do select structured diet plans and exercise programs. This helps us as many of us do have problems controlling ourselves, but it tends to be unrealistic if you think that you are going to be absolutely perfect throughout the whole entire diet. This is why so many people do not succeed on diets, because they feel like they failed when they didn’t. They were just doing what anyone else would have done and that is sleeping instead of exercising or eating pizza instead of salad one night because you were out with your friends. It is imperative to realize that you are not going to be able to eat diet food all of the time and it is natural to want to eat trashy food in moderation. Once you get that figured out, the easier life will be. Just have enough self control not to throw yourself into a whirlwind of overeating and sedentary lifestyles.

Plan for these temptations and stay positive through this healthy eating journey. Stay confident that even though you will have your treats, you will also be making yourself more healthy by having much less of them. There is no reason that an otherwise healthy person should completely cut out fatty foods, so don’t even try. The balance of healthy and not so healthy foods is what is most important.

This approach will make cheating null in void and that is the main goal of this article. Cheating would insinuate that you did something wrong and you didn’t. So take away all of that guilt and keep on living while working on your healthy eating and exercise habits. Avoiding complete deprivation of fatty foods will also prevent you from a potential binge that will negate a good portion of the progress you have made. Just let things flow the way that they should and you will have nothing to worry about.

Become more active everyday!

Posted on May 14, 2010November 11, 2024 by floridav

Weight management tips from?Kissimmee Weight Loss Clinic.There are many ways to become more active every day, but the key here is having fun. If you are having fun you aren’t going to want to stop doing all of the fantastic things you have planned; no matter how exhausting they end up being. For example, have you ever been completely exhausted after work one day and your friends wanted to go out? You didn’t think you would make it through the night but you were having so much fun that you had so much new found energy! Yes, granted you eventually crashed in your bed at the end of the night but that is more of a benefit, don’t you think? It is very beneficial to naturally exhaust yourself as opposed to using things to help yourself sleep if you have sleeping problems but I digress.

Becoming more active is very beneficial in many ways and if you find something fun to do then you will keep at it and soon be able to handle whatever comes your way! Here are some ways to do that.

If you have a dog or children why not go chase them around? Have some fun throwing balls and running around. Or you could even just get on the bike and ride around the block a few times. Don’t forget to wear a helmet! There is nothing more fun than turning the music up loud and dancing around the room! Bring everyone into it to promote the health and activeness of your family and friends, too!
You could even go clubbing somewhere and have fun dancing for a few hours. That is an idea of fun for a lot of people. If that’s not your thing, then why not start gardening? It is peaceful, calming, but it also promotes a great amount of energy. It gets you going while you get to clear your mind of all of the stresses of everyday life.

Inviting a friend over and going for a nice walk with them is also a great idea. The time passes by because you can chit chat about everything and nothing all at the same time. Next thing you know, your walk is over and they are on their way home. It is like you didn’t even get out there at all, but you know deep down inside you did something great for your health.

If you are walking by yourself, a great way to pass the time and keep yourself into it is by listening to music or a good audiobook. Go get yourself a nice sports MP3 player and then head out. This applies to riding bikes, going running, and other types of exercise too.
If you are interested in interaction while exercising, maybe you could sign up for some classes or taking dance lessons. If those aren’t your ideas of fun then head to the public pool or swimming center for a fantastic swim. These are all great ideas and you end up in the best shape of your life physically and mentally.

Eat Your Way to a Healthy Weight Loss

Posted on March 18, 2010November 11, 2024 by floridav

Here are 10 points to help you lose weight without going hungry.

1.Always eat breakfast. And by breakfast, I mean eggs. A randomized study last year at Louisiana State University showed that women who ate a breakfast of two eggs a day for five or more days a week for eight weeks lost 65% more weight than the women who had a bagel breakfast with juice, equaling the same amount of calories.? They also had an 83% greater reduction in waist circumference. That is just amazing. Don’t worry about cholesterol, either; their levels were tested and were not adversely affected.

Cut way back on starches. Nothing white. No white rice, potatoes, sugar, bread. Anything refined is not necessary to a healthy eating plan. Beans are a ‘good’ starch option, as are any whole grains.

Never skip a meal. In fact, you should be consuming 5-6 mini-meals a day. If you eat a healthy, balanced small meal every 3-4 hours, you will never go hungry. Hunger leads to binge eating. Since you are eating so frequently, your metabolism will be running effectively all the time.

Avoid fast food restaurants for the rest of your natural life. I’m not exaggerating. It is very difficult to walk into one of those places and get what you need. If for some reason there is no way around it, make sure you stick to your dietary guns and order the healthiest food you can.? Don’t be afraid to remove the buns and half of the burger and get happy in the lettuce, tomato and onion.

Drink a lot of water. Cut out all carbonated, sweetened beverages.

Stock up on fruits and vegetables. Schedule a weekend cutting session to create lots of handy, healthy snacks such as carrot slices, cucumber spears, broccoli heads, etc. Store in a bowl of water in the refrigerator, or investigate the containers that keep fresh produce fresh for longer periods of time.

If this is too overwhelming, introduce changes gradually. You could start out by keeping a water bottle with you at all times, refilling as often as necessary. Then the following week you can start with the min-meals, etc.

Cut out the salt. If you use table salt, stop. Find a salt alternative, such as Mrs. Dash.

Study balanced diets. If what you learn isn’t coming together for you, consult a dietician.

Don’t be afraid to eat something.? There is no bad food. Just remain moderate. One Hershey Kiss can ease your chocolate cravings. When you do indulge, savor it. Nibble, taste, enjoy.

Don’t be a slave to the numbers on the scale.? Remember, you’re shooting for healthy. Weight loss will follow. Just follow through with all your changes, and over time they will become your lifestyle.
