Why Do We Gain Weight?

There are many factors that cause us to increase body weight, yet three stand out from the rest. Our genetic make up: Every cell in our body has a central control panel, that is a nucleus that contains our genes and chromosomes. This is the instruction manual for your body and this is inherited from your parents. It is this instruction manual that is largely responsible for how your body, and even your mind, behaves. The environment in which we live: Our personal environment may also contribute or cue you to adopt poor eating or exercise habits. This is especially true in today's society, which is dominated by speed and convenience. For example, escalators, elevators and remote-control appliances make us less physically active. Also, greater availability and the constant marketing of foods that are high in calories, fat and added sugars, and larger portion sizes promote unhealthy eating behaviors. There may also be personal reasons why you are consuming too many kilojoules from food and drinks, or not being physically active enough. For example, when feeling down or bored you may eat more than you need, or if you are feeling depressed it is more difficult to get active. Knowing the reason why you may be consuming excess kilojoules or not participating in physical activity, is an important first step in changing your lifestyle habits to help you reach a healthy weight. Our lifestyle: What we eat and drink and how active we are. This is the gradual gain in weight as a result of eating food and not exercising enough. The extent to which we can affect our genetic make up and our environment are limited. However, lifestyle is the area in which we can significantly manage and if need be, improve our body weight to ensure we maintain a healthy weight for our height, age and gender. This is why learning a healthy nutritious eating pattern and adopting it for life, that is, lifestyle changes has a significant impact on our ability to reach and maintain a healthy weight. Gaining and losing weight works according to some a simple biological principle. When you consume more energy in the form of food and drinks that your body uses each day you will gain weight. When you consume less energy in the form of food and drinks that your body requires each day you will lose weight. Despite what some advertisers would have use believe, weight loss does not occur as a result of any of the following: * Supplements that will melt the fat while you sleep or while you wash * Exercises that don’t take any effort and cause no sweat * Unique food combinations that will allow you to eat what you want and still lose weight In order to lose weight you will need to know approximately your Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR). Your RMR is the number of calories your body burns at rest in a 24 hour period. When your body gets about 500 less calories than it needs each day as a result of eating less or exercising more, you will lose one pound of weight per week. To illustrate how efficient the human body is in motion, the average female would need to go for a brisk walk for 1.5 to 2.0 hours in order to burn 500 calories. When you consume 500 calories a day more than your body’s requirements, you will gain approximately one pound a week! To illustrate how easy it is to gain weight, one 7oz bag of corn chips has approximately 1000 calories. If you ate a bag of corn chips every day in addition to three square meals its possible you could gain 2 pounds in a week!

Writing For Your Weight Loss Success

23:30:00 0

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Motivation is one of the key variables for the equation that yields long term weight loss success. The question is how do you maintain the motivation to attain the ultimate goal? Regardless if your weight loss goal is 20 pounds or 100 pounds you must change your thinking to change your behavior and writing makes that happen. 
 
Weight loss really does begin in your head. Every successful athlete understands that his thinking process is either working for him or against him. The same holds true with weight loss. If your internal dialogue is negative, your results will eventually manifest the same result! You can’t degrade yourself to a healthy new you! You must change your thinking to work for you, to build your resolve, and to maintain that all important motivational factor. 
 
Writing is an exercise that will help your mind change its thinking! It allows you to process the negative emotions and helps to instill the positive changes. Start with these simple exercises: 
 
1. The Negative Emotions Daily Dump: Many success coaches advocate writing out your negative thinking on a daily basis. Simply spend approximately 15 minutes writing out all the frustrations, bad feelings, and discouragement. This helps you to process these bad feelings out of your system so that you can make room for positive affirmations. Do not reread the entries and do not keep them. Write it out, and then throw it out. We call this the Negative Emotions Daily Dump. 
 
2. Affirm Your Goals: Prepare a list of affirmations that will help your subconscious work with your conscious brain to make those all important behavioral changes. Then write your affirmations at least twice a day. Write them once after you have written your Negative Emotions Daily Dump. Don’t do the Negative Dump without filling it with the positive affirmations. You should always end with this. Write the second set of affirmations either right before you go to bed or first thing in the morning. Read your affirmations several times a day. 
 
3. Understand your Motivations: In order to stay motivated you must understand your real reasons for losing weight. In other words, understand why YOU want to lose weight. Not why your spouse or friends want you to lose weight but why losing the weight is important to you. Do you really want more energy? Do you just love skinny clothes? Do you want to participate in an activity that would be easier if you were slim and healthy? Write these motivations out in detail so that you can solidify them in your head and they can continue to motivate you through the entire weight loss journey. 
 
4. Accountability: Keep a food diary. Keeping a food diary has been proven time and time again to increase your weight loss success by as much as 50%! A food log is your accountability factor. It keeps you honest with yourself. 
 
5. Visualize: Visualize yourself enjoying the portions of your <a href="http://weiiight-loss.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">weight loss program</a> that you are currently struggling to do. For instance if you hate the cardio portion of your day, start seeing yourself loving it. See it as “”your time”. It can be your time to read while you’re on the stationary bike. Or your time to watch all those movies you feel guilty watching any other time. Once you begin to visualize positive feelings about a certain activity the easier that activity will become. 
 
6. The Pat-On-The-Back: Keep a written log of your weight loss success. By writing down your weight loss on a weekly basis you are validating your efforts and giving yourself a pat-on-the-back. This will go a long way to keeping you on track. 
 
Keep in mind that if you are utilizing the assistance of a personal fitness trainer or weight loss professional that they may use techniques to help you face your self-defeating habits. This might feel harsh and negative, however it isn’t. Honesty is necessary to motivate change and this is different than running yourself down! Sometimes we have to hear the hard words to make the hard changes. Keep in mind that these professionals are seeking your ultimate success. Your success is their success. Let’s face it, the weight gain started with you and to change that behavior you may have to deal with some uncomfortable feelings. A good trainer will help you feel cared about while still insisting that you deal with your bad habits. It’s a good thing to be pushed past your comfort zone to becoming a better you! 
 
Writing is the new “exercise” that can make all the rest of your weight loss efforts including good nutrition, exercise, and resistance training work for you because you will be working with these principles instead of against them. You will start seeing these weight loss techniques as a positive and permanent part of your life, instead of a temporary device. That will result in faster results that last forever!

Diet To Lose Weight

00:00:00 0

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
When we chose to change our eating habits, we usually diet to lose weight. Sometimes we may have health issues, such as high cholesterol, which is what leads us to eat healthier. Often times we diet to lose weight because as we are overweight and realize that our eating habits may have gotten in this predicament to begin with. It is possible to just exercise and lose weight, but sooner or later the person will not lose any more weight without changing eating habits as well. Most of the time it is the other way around; people diet, that is they count carbohydrates, fat grams, or calories, somehow limiting their food intake to reach weight loss goals. Even though every source you read on diet to lose weight encourages combining the diet plan with exercise, not everyone does this right away. Of course, it is ideal to diet and exercise from the beginning of a diet plan, some people may feel overwhelmed by taking on too much change at once, if exercise has not been a part of their life. There are quite a few online support sites to visit, that have a multitude of information for anyone looking to diet to lose weight. Some diets work better for some than others, for instance, the Atkins diet required quite a drastic cut in carbohydrates, which may not be an appropriate diet to lose weight for everyone. The South Beach Diet is a popular diet to lose weight because it allows dieters to eat many of the foods they eat anyway and is not quite as restrictive as others. There are also weight loss systems such as Jenny Craig, the LA Weight Loss Center, or Curves for Women. All of these programs are great and offer a good deal of support for anyone who wants to diet to lose weight. Exercise is encouraged, and for the Curves for Women plan, it is the central part of the program. When you do decide to diet to lose weight, be sure you visit with your healthcare provider first before beginning your program, especially if you have quite a bit of weight to lose, or if you have health issues that may be of concern. Exercise should not be contraindicated for anyone and can be tailored for each individual dieter’s specific needs. You diet to lose weight, but you must also incorporate exercise into your plan. You will gain greater health, and also be able to maintain your diet and fitness goals. </div>

5 Healthy Tips To Weight Loss

21:00:00 0

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
The world is fascinated with weight loss, some for health reasons and
 others for cosmetic. No matter the reason, many people try harsh diets 
that never work, extreme exercise regimens that result in injuries or 
other weight loss program that end without success. The reason that none
 of these weight loss methods seem to work is because in order to stay 
with a program, you have to enjoy it. Not only that, but it has to be 
safe as well. 
Below are 5 genuine tips to weight loss, which 
almost anyone can do without tossing out their favorite food or spending
 every spare minute in the gym. Realistically, any weight loss program 
will take time. If anyone promises you different, they are either not 
being completely honest or are simply uninformed. Follow one single 
weight loss program for 30 days, whatever it may be, and see if you have
 results. If not, move on to something else. In the meantime, check out 
several tips to getting started today. 
 Tip # 1 Walking. If you
 can set aside 30 minutes every day to enjoy a leisurely stroll, you 
will be strengthening your legs and your heart while burning some 
calories in the process. 
Tip # 2 Use a mini cycle. These 
portable little exercise units offer the look of bicycle pedals set up 
on a metal bar, but without the high price or weight of a standard 
exercise bike. With a min cycle, you can pedal at your desk, on the 
couch or anywhere else that you can comfortably set and reach the 
pedals. 
 Tip # 3 Walk or take the stairs instead of an 
elevator. This is a terrific weight loss exercise without even noticing 
the extra effort. Something as simple as a few extra steps every day can
 go a long way where weight loss is concerned. The next time you go to 
the store, park in the middle of the parking lot and walk to the store. 
Avoid parking in the closest spot to the door, which is tempting, but 
opt to walk instead. 
 Tip # 4 You don't necessarily have to cut
 out all of your favorite foods, but you should eat them in moderation. 
There is no single food that will completely hinder your weight loss 
attempt but, if consumed excessively, it may. For instance, simply limit
 your intake to one candy bar or, if you are being really careful, a 
miniature candy. There is no reason to cut out your favorite food when a
 conservative amount of the things we love can still have a place in our
 lives, including during the times that we are focusing on weight loss. 
 Tip # 5 Whatever
 your exercise routine, set aside a certain time each day to do it. 
Individuals who set a routine are much more likely to stay with it and 
find success than those who simply exercise whenever they have time. The
 goal to successful weight loss is to make time. 
 This article is 
intended to be used for informational purposes only. It is not to be 
used in place of, or in conjunction with, professional medical advice or
 a doctor's recommendation. Prior to beginning any weight loss program, 
individuals must consult a physician for proper diagnosis and/or 
treatment.</div>

Obesity is now being called an epidemic in the health community. In 
fact, it will soon be the leading cause of preventable death in the 
United States, even ahead of cigarette smoking. Obesity leads to type 
two diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease or stroke and even an 
increased risk of cancer. With all of these health risks, as well as the
 general improvement in the quality of life that can occur, losing 
weight is one of the best things that you can do for yourself. 
 
No matter what we would like to believe, there simply isn’t a magic 
solution to losing weight. The body will shed excess fat when it needs 
more calories to function through the demands you place on it in a given
 day than the amount of calories that you feed it. It’s that simple. So,
 in order to lose weight, you need to decrease the number of calories 
that you eat as well as increase the amount that you burn. 
 
There is a wide range of options to choose from when looking for a 
weight loss program. All of them often spend a lot of time explaining 
what to eat, in what amounts and even at what times or in what 
combinations. But few of them emphasize the importance of exercise – not
 just for losing weight, but for your general health and wellbeing. 
Exercise is vital when trying to lose weight for several reasons: 
 
First, as you start to eat less, your metabolism will slow down 
somewhat. Exercising helps to elevate your metabolism back to an 
efficient level.Second, as mentioned, exercise burns more calories so 
that you can lose weight faster and stay motivated in your 
efforts.Third, exercise actually releases endorphins, chemicals that 
keep your mood elevated. 
 
Exercise doesn’t have to mean spending hours at the gym or straining 
through exhausting workouts. In fact, in order for you to stick with it 
on the long run, exercising should be something that you enjoy. Start by
 increasing your activity level in an overall way. Take the stairs when 
you can. Park further from the mall door when you go shopping. Go for a 
walk in the park or through a neighborhood you love and bring a dog or a
 friend along for company. Take dance or martial arts lessons. 
 
Once you become more active in general, you’ll find it easier and more 
natural to move into regular exercise. Which you’ll need to do 
eventually in order to get regular, noticeable health benefits. You need
 to raise your heart rate to a fat burning level and keep it there for 
at least 20 minutes, 3 times or more a week. However, if you don’t want 
to go to a gym, there are other options. Videos and DVDs are now 
available in all kinds of exercise types. That way you can change your 
routine whenever you want so that you don’t get bored with what you’re 
doing. Try a range of aerobics, kickboxing, yoga, or pretty much any 
activity you want right in the comfort of your own home. 
 
If you have physical limitations that would keep you off from 
exercising, you can still find a way to increase your activity level. 
Water aerobics is a wonderful option for those who have joint problems 
or limited mobility because it relieves the pressure on your body that 
your weight provides. But you still get the resistance to challenge your
 muscles from the water. There are even classes and videos available 
that let you exercise in a seated position. 
 
Whatever kind of exercise you choose, it’s important to stay motivated 
and keep it fun. Try gathering a group together to make it a social 
event. Or get a pedometer, a device that tracks how far you walk, and 
see how many miles you can walk a week. Make a competition amongst your 
friends or family members and treat the winner with something special 
(not food related!). Make the experience of exercising something that 
you look forward to, and it will soon become a regular part of your 
healthier lifestyle.
