Eat with more awareness, eat natural foods provided by Mother Nature, and eat to stimulate your individual metabolism type. Here are five easy tips to get you started losing weight and inches sensibly and progressively.

Intramural sports are a great way for college students to stay in shape. Most college students enjoy playing some sport or another, but do not have the time available to play on their school's team. Intramural leagues are great substitutes, with more flexible schedules and the ability to play with (or against) your friends. Most modern colleges offer a wide range of intramural leagues, including less demanding, though still fun and challenging, sports such as ultimate Frisbee.

Sugar is your enemy when it comes to weight loss. This is because sugar causes your body to produce too much insulin, which encourage fat storage. And sugar can be found in hiding in many products. It is very hard to lose weight if you have a lot of insulin running through your bloodstream. It is the job of insulin to regular the amount of blood sugar in your body. When it is in a normal range, you feel fuller and have less 'cravings', especially for highly refined junk foods.

When was the last time you played Frisbee with your friends, significant other or your kids (if relevant)? Enjoy life, let go and appreciate yourself and those around you while at the same time getting a working out.

Men and women use and store fat differently as men contain more testosterone. With such high quantities of testosterone this allows men to benefit from increased human growth hormones that prompt heightened muscle development, fat loss and bone development.

The first tip that I am going to give you is often over looked, but can really help jump start any weight loss program. Ice cold water is a valuable tool when it comes to losing weight fast. I was able to lose 10 pounds in only one month, by simply replacing 8 of my usual tea, juice, and soda drinks per day, with water.

Sugar foods are the biggest saboteurs of a woman's fat loss plan. They are high-carbs and high-calories...without providing much in the way of helpful nutrition. Sugar foods cause spikes in your blood sugar levels, which in turn, dump tons of insulin into your system, which leads to more food being stored as fat instead of being used as energy.

While it's no secret where fat accumulates in the body... you can see it with your own two eyes, a harder question to answer is where does the fat go when you lose weight?

You may have heard (or tried) programs that promise to melt away fat from specific areas of the body, but the evidence (MRI and CT scans) sadly doesn't support these claims. It would be great if fat could simply disappear... but when you understand more about fat cells, you'll see why this just isn't possible.

So forget the fads and best-selling diet books; focus instead on long term weight loss that comes as the result of a sensible diet and exercise program in order to see that fat disappear for good.

You'll want to choose more healthy, low calorie, non processed foods and increase your activity level on a regular basis in order to see the fat start to slip away.

Eat less and move more... it's not glamorous, it takes time and effort, hard work and persistence, but the results are lasting and incredibly beneficial to your body, not to mention your self-esteem.

As you work toward your weight loss goal, remember these important points about body fat and weight loss...

1. You can change sizes, but you can't change your body shape. So when you lose weight, you lose it all over in the same proportions as the fat is distributed throughout your body. If you are pear (or apple) shaped to start, you'll lose weight, but will remain the same body shape, though certainly a smaller, leaner one than when you started. Of course, the problem is the weight, not the shape of the body, which is out of your control, often determined by your genetics or body hormones.

2. Body fat is not the same. Fat in the belly area, called visceral fat, is far more dangerous than the more unsightly subcutaneous fat that is found in areas like the thighs, because it's not only metabolically active, but it's surrounding some of your most vital organs. This type of fat disturbs the natural mechanisms of the body, releasing biochemicals that bring on inflammation, which is incredibly dangerous for both your heart and liver, as well as being bad for muscles and joints.

3. Fat cells shrink during weight loss, but you keep the same number. Humans have from 10-30 billion fat cells, and if you're obese, you can have as many as 100 billion. When you lose weight, you don't change how many fat cells you have, their size gets smaller, but the ability to expand right back remains. So even if a procedure like liposuction removes the fat cells, this does not mean that the fat cells in other non-lipo'd areas can't get bigger. How big (or small) your fat cells are depends on diet and exercise.

Remember, experts say that for weight loss to be truly successful, you need to make changes in the way you eat that you can maintain over a lifetime... not just for a few weeks or months. This is the reason most "diets" fail... they have you eating in a way that's not realistic or natural, one that very few can stick with over the long haul.

So if you're looking for shortcuts, quick fixes or magic pills that will make the fat disappear, you're sure to be disappointed. Those who have lasting success will tell you it comes from making small, simple changes that can be maintained over a lifetime.

The best benefit of juicing for weight loss is each drink is filled with enzymes, vitamins and minerals that will help you boost energy and your immune system while consuming minimal calories and little fat.

Appetite suppressants are associated with many side effects, but consumers feel they have no other option to lose weight. But fresh vegetable juice helps curb hunger harmlessly. Enjoy a glass of fresh juice before a meal and see your hunger diminish. Vegetable juice also can help stabilize blood sugar. The sugar content is much lower in vegetable compared to fruit juice, and you drink 50 percent less calories. But it still satisfies the sweet tooth. This makes this type of diet plan a pleasure.

Unlike joining various programs that require meal plans, this weight loss regime does not require spending a lot of money or spending a lot of time. Jump-start juicing for weight loss with an inexpensive juice machine.

If you have more than a few pounds to drop, you may want to consider kick-starting the process with a short fast. The miracle of juice fasting aids detoxification. While a water fast may drain energy, juicing can give an energy boost. It also clears all systems to ensure the body will be in the best shape to shed extra weight.

Enjoying variety is important when trying to lose weight, and juicing provides variety. Use veggies and fruits of every color, rotating different kinds to extract diverse nutrients. The body will still consume all the calories it needs to be active and healthy.

Juicing can be part of a nutritional eating plan. Drinking one glass of vegetable juice each day will make it easier to reach your weight loss goals. Fresh juice also will help you maintain your weight later. Once you taste the benefits of juicing, you will not be tempted to return to bad habits. By enjoying a more healthy body, you will find it easy and want to maintain a healthy nutritional routine.

You've tried every gimmick in the book and you are at the end of your rope with weight loss programs. The one question you continue to ask yourself over and over is, "Why can I not lose weight naturally?" It is perfectly normal to feel this way. What is not perfectly normal are some of the eating habits that you have picked up over the years. Losing weight has become more of a science than a system or way of life. In order to master any science, one must avoid the pitfalls and become an at the fundamentals. Below are two answers to your question, why can I not lose weight naturally?

You eat for the sake of eating

I previously wrote in one of my articles about the binge eating habit known as pica or cribbing. Whenever there is a lack of nutrients in the body, it causes one to eat junk food or snacks continuously without ever quenching the appetite. Snacks or sweets can only be things that you have an appetite for. You will never hear anyone say, "I am hungry for ice cream." They may say "I have a craving for ice cream." On the contrary, hunger is earned generally from laboring or from the depletion of the body's vital nutrients. Your body is built to let you know when you are hungry. Understand that hunger will require a hearty meal. When a construction worker comes home from work he should not hope that his wife has prepared a Twinkie.

He would probably expect a steak, some potatoes and some other vegetables. Many people seem to think that when you wake in the morning that it is mandatory to eat a breakfast. Nothing could be so far from the truth. If you eat late at night it is literally impossible for you to be hungry when you wake because the body is at a resting state! Anyone who eats a meal at 8 o'clock at night and goes to bed should not experience hunger until about 10 am to 12pm the next day. When you are programmed to eat at certain hours you will eat anything no matter if you have a full stomach. Never eat unless you have a true hunger to eat or unless you are instructed by a medical practitioner to do so.

You eat then go directly to sleep

For the first time those late night owl hours have come home to haunt you. You stay up watching movies, talking with friends or if you are younger you might play video games. The longer you stay up the more fuel your body will require to function. It is unlikely that you will eat a meal at 2 am in the morning and wait for the food to digest four hours later. As a guideline it is good to wait three to four hours after you eat before you retire for the night. The foods that are eaten at the wee morning hours are not very nutritious.

Let's say you eat at 12 midnight then crash for the night. When you are sleeping your body is in a dormant state. It will try to repair anything that is damaged in the body. If you put junk food in the body at this hour then it will have no real nutrients to draw from and therefore the fatty foods that you have eaten will not be of much use. This means that the food that you consumed will turn into fat. Fat on the outside means fat on the inside. When fat builds up, the organs start to get pushed around and crowded. This is another reason for high blood pressure and heart attacks.

Knowing this, it is important to eat as early and nutritious as you can. This will allow for proper digestion.

When trying to lose weight naturally, you have to take every small thing into account. Never overlook anything or think that something is too minute. You must be cognoscenti of all activities that could hinder the overall weight loss process. If you can remember to correct small things such as these two examples, your question of, why can I not lose weight naturally will be eliminated.

Summers are here - the scorching heat is in full swing, short shorts are out, lemonades are being served and air conditioners are a man's best friend. While many people look forward to beach season, even more dread it due to the extra pounds they packed on during the winters. Don't lose hope, your plan to lose weight for summer might not be the easiest thing you will do this year, but is definitely worth looking amazing in a swimming suit.

Exercise

While exercise may not be what you want to do, don't worry. You won't have to run a marathon to lose those pesky pounds. Simply incorporate 30 minutes of exercise into your daily routine. This could be a brisk walk to and from work, walking your dog, bicycling to the local store or even walking on a treadmill while watching television. It's also easy to start a DVD workout since you can do this any time of the day. If you can't exercise every day, aim for 45 minutes three to four times a week.

Low Sodium

Cut out the salt from your food. Not entirely, but do stay away from those packaged snacks and fast foods as they can have up to three times your daily requirement of sodium in one serving. Excess sodium will make you retain water, making your weight go up, so when you cut out sodium you will lose the water weight your body has been holding on to since the winters.

Drink More Water

Water is your friend. Have 16 ounces of water before and after every meal, before and after you workout and as soon as you wake up. Three to four liters of water every day will help in flushing out excess salt and toxins as well as reduce your appetite for food since you'll feel full longer.

Eat Less

Weight loss is 80% calorie control and 20% of following fads. An average person needs between 1600-2000 calories to maintain their daily weight. You can calculate your body's exact requirement by using an online calorie calculator which will use your height and body weight, along with age, to determine how many calories you need in a day to maintain your current weight. Reduce that number by 500 to have your calorie limit to ensure you lose one pound per week. If you're incorporating exercise, you'll actually lose more than that. It's not advisable to eat less than 1200 calories per day, since your body will think its starving and lower your metabolism making it difficult to lose weight in the future.

Eat Healthy

Whether you're eating 1400 or 1800 calories, you need to make each one count. Focus on eating one gram of protein for every pound of lean muscle on you. For most people, this falls between 120-160 grams. You can use the remainder of your calories any way you want. Just make sure every meal has a protein component and that you focus on eating healthy fats as well as fruits and vegetables rather than snacking on junk food all day. Incorporate homoeopathy for weight loss into your routine as well.

If you follow this advice while you lose weight for summer, you will find yourself at your goal weight in no time.

Have you ever took inventory of the foods you eat, the fitness plan your on, what your doing to stay healthy, and the methods your using to lose weight?

If you are one of the few that actually looks and studies the things you are doing, you will know exactly what is working and what is not.

You may have a particular fitness workout that you do follow along with some type of nutrition plan like choosing the less fat foods or not drinking sodas.

Now let's be honest with one another, are you really sure as to which things are working and which things aren't?

Really, do you know what you're doing that is causing you to lose weight, if you are?

As far as weight loss goes it is more of a mental game than a physical one. Though you may have a crazy craving every now and again that you have to deal with, most of the weight loss is battled in your mind. And wherever you store the fat on your body, waste line or rear end, if you can beat it in your mind then you will pretty much get rid of it for good.

Weight loss is very possible and you can do it to if you will learn how to re-train your mind in the way you think when it comes to weight loss.

Whatever you think, you are. This is a motto that I have lived with for years. If you think your fat then you will end up fat.

Here is a quote that I took from Napoleon Hill that will better explain what I am saying.

"Our brains become magnetized with the dominating thoughts that we hold in our minds. And, by means which no man is familiar, these magnets attract us to the forces, the people, the circumstances of life which harmonize wit the nature of our dominating thoughts"

If I were to try and chop up this quote it would sound more like this:

It is up to you to make yourself think that you deserve to lose weight and not only think it but believe it. Don't wait till tomorrow; you need to believe it right now.

If you don't, it is another day that just gets flushed away and you might as well tell yourself that you don't deserve to be thin.

In all reality if you don't believe it, then it is never going to happen.

Now you can't wish yourself thin, there is some work required and if you follow the right plan and create the right mindset, then you will get to reap the rewards.

Using homeopathy for weight loss may be one of the simplest diets to understand, but it's also one of the most difficult to follow. While the diet does guarantee quick and significant results, it also requires you to work hard for weight loss first. Then again, nothing ventured, nothing gained, right? So if you've already tried all the diets in the world and nothing seems to have worked, the homeopathy for weight loss diet may just be what you need to turn yourself into a whole new and better you.

Condition yourself in advance.

If you are seriously considering following this diet, then you should know by now that this diet requires you to consume only 500 calories each day and no more than that. This may seem like a tall order, but it will definitely be easier to cope with your dietary requirement if you condition yourself bit by bit for it.

If you are planning to start this diet two months from now, you can try spending the next whole month reducing your consumption bit by bit until you find the 500-calorie diet more manageable.

Always have a ready supply of homeopathic pills.

Last but not least, it's important that you don't forget to take your diet pills. Just one miss and you'll feel hunger pangs immediately. And because it's been a long time since you've ate your usual share, your hunger pangs could be a lot more painful - enough to force you to succumb to your old ways, eating like there's no tomorrow.

Keep a weight loss journal.

It would never hurt to have someone you trust to confide into. And if you don't have this kind of friend for now, then the next best thing would be to write down your thoughts and feelings in a journal. Your previous entries can then serve as motivation for you to continue moving forward. You've already gone so far - in fact, half the battle is already won because you've chosen to do something with your current weight.

Know your options for meal plans.

The 500-calorie diet is just one of the many requirements you have to face. This diet, for instance, also requires you to eat the correct food for your daily calorie intake.

Learn or improve your kitchen skills.

Because of the many dietary restrictions that a homeopathy for weight loss diet requires from you, it's important that you spend more time in the kitchen, honing your cooking skills. It's the only way to ensure that you'll still be able to enjoy a variety of dishes in spite of your lack of culinary experience or background.

Be patient.

At the start, your body may no show sign of visible changes with its weight. Don't let this discourage you from trying the diet out, though. While it admittedly takes more time to have a leaner or fitter-looking body, rest assured that will happen and with this diet, too. It's only that you have to be patient and not demand results overnight. If that's what you like, then what you need is a cosmetic surgery treatment for fat elimination and not a homeopathy for weight loss diet.

These days, everyone wants to lose weight. Working out, practicing yoga and trying new diet are some of the most commons ways of losing weight. But there are several people who believe in consuming diet pills. Diet pills are also called anti-obesity pills or weight loss drugs. These drugs alter the weight regulation mechanism of the human body. This is done by altering the appetite, metabolism levels or absorption of calories. However, diet pills are extremely unhealthy. Some of the known side effects of diet pills include irritability or nervousness, anxiety, insomnia and a feeling of restlessness or hyperactivity, high blood pressure, stroke or congestive heart failure. Other side effects also include digestive tract problems like vomiting, diarrhea and stomach pain. Some of the easier ways to lose weight without suffering such adverse side effects are listed below.

Exercise
Burn more calories than you eat by adding a simple, brisk exercise regimen to your daily routine! Start slow and work up to 30 minutes of low impact exercises 3 to 5 times a week. Cardiovascular exercises are essential for weight loss. Initially, 30 minutes of cardio is an appropriate amount of exercise. Eventually, you may want to increase the time limits in order to lose weight more quickly. Resistance training is the most effective way to achieve a slimmer body. It builds raises metabolism, builds muscle and burns fat.

Drink lots of Water
Doctors and dietitians recommend drinking a lot of water. Drinking water helps to flush out harmful toxins from your body that tend to prevent weight loss. For your body to function properly, you must replenish its water supply by consuming beverages and foods that contain water. In general, doctors recommend drinking 8 or 9 cups of water every day. Not only does it help you reduce weight, it also helps relive headaches and backaches due to dehydration. Water helps you feel more energetic while exercising. It also keeps your body rejuvenated throughout the day.

Eat a Balanced Diet
Chart out a diet plan that includes a lot of fresh fruits and vegetables. These are excellent sources of vitamins and minerals. Eat five vegetables a day and then try to diversify your diet menus to include some more vegetables whenever possible. Exchange the normal oily snacks with carrots, cut up celery sticks and cucumbers. Add a lot of fibers to your menu. Whole wheat and whole grain foods, along with fruits and vegetables, fill you up more, without over-loading you with calories. Avoid refined flours and sugars in order to lose weight quickly! Avoid drinking sodas or aerated drinks in order to quickly reduce bloating and take inches off your waist!

Count the Calories
The recommended daily calorie intake differs from person to person, depending upon the kind of lifestyle that you lead and some other factors like height, weight and gender. If your daily calorie intake is above normal considering your height, eight, gender and activity level, you may want to consider cutting down your calorie intake in order to achieve a healthy weight level. One pound or 0.5 kg is equivalent to 3500 calories. By making slight changes to your diet or in your exercise regime, you may create a deficit of 500 calories which leads you to lose a pound over a week. (500 calories X 7 days a week = 3500 calories.) This is how you can lose up to a pound per week! However, a drastic cut of calories may cause starvation and reduce your metabolism. But it may not necessarily reduce your weight. Hence it is necessary to be careful while following this routine of weight loss. Easy ways of counting your calories is watching how much you eat. Don't put butter on your toast. Drizzle balsamic vinegar on your salad instead of dressing. Or simply eat ½ your normal serving of rice. See, it's not so hard after all!

Be Patient
Expect slow results if you want them to be permanent. While anti-obesity pills may claim to make you lose weight drastically, you must keep in mind that this can be very dangerous. It is very unsafe to lose more than 10 pounds, that is, 4.5 kgs per month. If an individual loses too much weight too quickly, he can risk constant nausea, diarrhea, fatigue and constipation. So take it slow and keep those inches off permanently!

Remember, a persistent will to stick to your regime and a healthy diet are the only ways to lose weight naturally and safely, without the use of dangerous diet pills.

Learning how to make an eating plan to lose weight is one of the first steps anybody that is serious about dieting should take. It is a part of the "Pre dieting" preparatory process before starting on a long, calorie restrictive time. The importance of preparation is very high. The more time you put into preparing your weight loss plan, the more likely you'll succeed.

Successful Fat Loss Is Dependent on Your Plan of Attack

Most people that decide their going to go on a diet do a few things...

They go to a book store and browse the diet books. They find a diet that seems easy but effective and purchase it. They read through the book and hopefully start putting the advise to use.They start eating less. Usually this means they begin to skip meals, something very BAD for those trying to lose fat effectively.They find the most popular diet they saw on TV and start using the exact tips given.

All of these options are NOT the best for using an eating plan to lose weight and the reason is because these plans don't cater to you and your specific body need. There are several necessities that you must use in preparing an eating plan to lose weight if you want to actually be successful.

Necessity Number 1 - Finding a Good Selection of Foods to Eat

I could teach you all the best and healthiest foods to eat in this, however, that is a whole new post in and of itself. Because of that, I am going to focus on the general idea of "finding good foods to eat". I recommend eating only healthy foods that are natural. The question is, which foods are these?

A good idea is to pick up a healthy diet book and look at their "do eat" foods and "do not eat" foods. This is a good way to begin. Print out this list and put it on your fridge and take it with you to the grocery store. You want to stick with this list and use these foods for your meals around 90% of the time.

Necessity Number 2- Calculate Your Calories Needed

Everybody has different caloric necessities on a daily basis. It is completely individualized based on a number of things such as:

How much you weighYour body fat percentageYour heightYour AgeYour Activity Level

There are a number of calorie calculators out there on the internet that you can start using right now to get a rough estimate of your calorie needs.

The next step is to subtract 500 calories from this and then divide that by however many meals you want to have in a day. In general, the more meals the better. What this will do is keep your metabolism speedy and burning calories on a constant basis.

I recommend picking between 4-6 meals a day. Divide that number by your calories needed and then save that number you get. This is how many calories you eat for every meal.

Planning Each Meal

The next step is planning each meal. What you are going to do for this eating plan to lose weight is decide what to eat for each meal to add up to the right amount of calories. Choose from the list of foods you have which foods to pick and then create meals that are of the right amount of calories.

This may take some time but it is worth it. It makes the dieting process much smoother and you won't have to be counting calories every time you eat. All the work will be done for you!

The best way to go about doing this is to plan more meals. Plan around 20 meals total that way you can mix up what you're going to eat for one meal and not have to eat the exact same foods each and every meal, day after day.

Using Only Healthy Foods and Not Counting Calories

Many people that hear about counting calories shy away because they think it takes too much time to do all the counting. The truth of the matter is that if you don't count your calories you are less likely to actually eat less and reach that optimal calorie number per day. You could end up spending a month on a diet and not lose anything because you shied away from counting. Which is the waste of time then?

You may not come across the term Anaerobic before. However if you want to lose fat it is vital to understand. Once you do you can even understand how it is possible to lose weight even while you are sleeping:

Anaerobic NOT Aerobic: They sound similar but they are different. Quite simply Aerobic means 'with air' and anaerobic means 'without air'

Anaerobic requires little air in the body: unlike Aerobics such as running or swimming which require a lot of air in the body.

The reason Anaerobic exercise uses little air is because it is very short: for example lifting a few weights or doing some squats.

Most people when trying to lose weight just do Aerobic exercise: They will work out for long sessions and finish sweating and out of breath. Surprisingly though many find they are still not losing weight.

For successful weight lose you must include Anaerobic exercise: This means weight training. Not so you look like a bodybuilder but just a few times a week doing a short weight training session of 20 minutes.

After weight training your muscles will continue to grow and tone: this involves your body converting fat into usable energy.

The best part is your body continues eating up fat after weight training: That means even while you're sleeping!

Increase weight training to burn more calories: The more weight training you do the more demand for energy your body has so the more calories it burns

It is vital therefore to include weight training into any weight fat loss program.

If you're serious about losing weight you should join a professional diet program: They explain all the secrets of dieting to guarantee you succeed. And the best part is they include nutrition, exercise and weight training programs for you. 

Finding a suitable diet programs is HARD! It needs to be easy to use, easy to understand, but more important is it needs to be suitable for YOU.

Like you, I have searched through 100's of different website looking for the best diet for me. Anaerobic diet is the one i found to be the most effective for me. I'm following the tips above and getting serious results which are notable in 30 days.

You can lose weight in the Cinema, Restaurant, and Cuddle in bed. Just give it a try and see that losing weight is not as hard as you think it is.

Weight loss may come naturally during a colon cleanse. There are scientific as well as dietary reasons for this; some obvious and some not. Here are some ways that you can use a colon cleanse to help you lose weight and feel your best.

A colon cleanse is not a matter of taking laxatives, nor is it a way of unnaturally forcing your body to expel waste before it is supposed to. If you simply take laxatives, eat the wrong diet and do not use proper colon cleansing techniques, you will not help your body cleanse or lose weight, but you could get sick.

A colon cleanse is used to help your body remove excess, built up waste. This waste comes in many forms from pollutants such as harmful pesticides or chemicals trapped in fat cells. It may also be waste in the form of undigested food or other substances that are left in the intestinal tract, which is similar to build up on the side of arterial walls, yet it is not made up of calcium as arterial plaque is.

Now, you might be asking; what does this have to do with weight loss? First of all, science and research has shown us that toxins do get stored in fat cells. Some of these are linked to causing sluggish thyroid or interfering with your natural hormones. This may cause weight gain and make it harder for you to lose weight, in spite of dieting.

The build up of waste in the intestinal tract is said by many professionals to add 10, 20 or even more pounds of excess weight. This is why it has been said by professionals for years to take fiber, because it acts as a sweeper for your intestinal tract. Fiber helps remove waste as well as helping you feel full, which may help you avoid over eating. But you have to consume healthy, natural fiber and not the processed, bleached flour found in many breads, cereals and other processed foods.

A colon cleanse does incorporate a healthy diet that may promote weight loss in many people. This is because we are so used to eating foods that are highly processed with hidden sugars, fats and other ingredients that can sabotage weight loss. A cleansing, or detox diet, should consist primarily of fresh produce, whole grains, legumes, and natural proteins like lean meats, poultry, organic eggs, sprouts, beans, nuts and seeds.

One of the problems with following this type of diet is that many people have intense cravings that can hurt your weight loss efforts. In addition, many people experience fatigue and other side effects making it seem impossible to diet.

A colon cleanse often helps with these issues. For example, as stated, fiber can help you feel full. Other ways a colon cleanse can help is by choosing the right foods. A cleansing diet often leaves a person feeling lighter and more energetic. This can help some people motivate to continue the program. Some supplements used during a colon cleanse, such as Essential Fatty Acids, can help provide nutrients to satisfy certain cravings while other supplements may help further curb appetite.

Your body has organs in place to naturally cleanse and detoxify the toxins that can interfere with health. However, when our bodies become over-burdened, those organs will slow or even stop working as they should. One example is the insulin resistance that many people experience while another example is sluggish metabolism.

A colon cleanse program does not make these organs work nor does it make you lose weight. The right diet can make both of these happen. However, a colon cleanse can help expedite this entire process and for many, makes the process much easier as obstacles are more easily overcome, energy remains, results are realized quicker thereby promoting more motivation to stick with the a healthy eating and healthy lifestyle program.

Although no scientific evidence is available, millions upon millions of people for decades have claimed to receive amazing benefits of colon cleansing. Most people have no reason to tout cleansing other than to share the joy of their success. If you have had a difficult time in the past when it comes to weight loss, a colon cleanse might be a program for you.

If you are reading this, you probably know how difficult enough it is to lose weight. However, keeping that weight off is a tedious challenge in its own right.

When the time comes to lose weight, the first strategies that come to mind for most are:

1. Cutting out all food that he/she enjoys eating, usually replacing them with something they don't like. No matter what you think at the time, you won't be able to go on for very long without ever eating your favorite foods again.

2. Picking up a plan that requires hours of preparation and effort to get results. Diets like these allow absolutely no room for mistakes and are easily sabotaged by unexpected events (work, children, family etc.)

3. Taking on unrealistically restrictive diets that shrink your menu to the point that it is all but impossible to survive on long-term.

Nobody in their right mind would think that a diet so restrictive would be a lifelong commitment. Many take on these punishing diets as short cuts to get down to their ideal weight quickly for an event like a wedding or vacation.

However, even if you lose all the weight you intended to, chances are you will go running back to your old diet as soon as you drop that last pound. Of course, once you pick up your old eating habits you will inevitably pick up your old weight in the process. This is why it is called yoyo dieting.

If you want to avoid the yoyo effect, you need to change the way you view weight loss. Instead of making your diet a short, torturous stint, try to think of it as a new lifestyle. Making baby steps towards changing your eating habits will support getting down to and keeping a healthy weight long-term.

There is no need to make these changes quickly or drastically. You can start out by making a single small change once a week or so. For example, the first week you can begin drinking more water, the next you start eating fruit and yogurt for breakfast and so on.

The final and most important key to losing weight is your approach. You wouldn't jump into a new career with a short-term mindset, would you? With the right amount of patience and the right kind of attitude succeeding in your new, healthy, slim lifestyle will be just as easy as it is rewarding.

Fat loss and weight-loss in general, can be accomplished by numerous methods. There are two major aspects of weight loss that you must focus on. You must incorporate exercise and diet into your lifestyle, because without either one of these key aspects, your weight-loss plan will not be as successful as it could potentially be. Those who exercise without establishing a proper diet plan seldom see amazing results, and those who follow a rigorous diet plan only to miss out on exercising do not lose that much weight either. You must eliminate junk foods and "empty-calorie" foods if they comprise a major part of your diet, and you must be physically active if you currently lead a sedentary lifestyle.

In terms of diet, you must decrease the calories you consume on a daily basis. Calorie intake should be gradually decreased - you don't want to cut down your calories by half over night, since that is not healthy. Furthermore, the amount of calories you consume daily must be obtained from several meals a day - aim to distribute your calories over five to six meals a day. You should decrease the amount of calories you eat by 500 calories for a period of at least one or two weeks and notice how much progress you are making. You should also make sure that the calories you consume come from healthy sources. You should pick lean meats for a good, high-quality, source of protein, complex carbohydrates such as fruits and vegetables and good sources of fat. An important tip that can greatly help with the increase of metabolism, and therefore can aid fat loss, is to drink lots of water. Drinking more water is an overlooked tip that can help you in addition to dieting and exercising.

Although cardiovascular training is a great way to lose fat, you should also try to implement weight-training into your workout plan as well. Weight-training can increase your muscle mass, help you lose fat, increase your strength, and lower stress. This is particularly effective in a potentially stressful time such as when trying to lose excess body fat. In terms of weight-training, you should strive to perform full-body exercises such as squats, so that your whole body is mobilized and benefits from the training.

Cardiovascular training is best done on empty stomach and for no longer than thirty to forty-five minutes at a time. You should perform cardio at a pace that is suitable for you, and should ease into it if you are just starting out. Treadmills and exercise bikes are great indoor options for cardio, and they should be used with medium intensity. Running too fast will get you tired, while running too slow won't burn enough fat. Therefore it is best to stick to a moderate tempo and a medium rate of intensity. Running outdoors is also a great way to perform cardio and also supply your body with more oxygen.

The weight loss industry is something like $31 billion just in the United States alone and includes many different weight loss programs and solutions.
Not surprisingly, many of the solutions are flawed. Weight loss failure is part and parcel of the industry because many of the manufacturers of products, schemes and programs over hype the results people can expect.
Here are some of the most common reasons why, in my opinion, people aren't successful at losing weight:
1. Relying Solely On Weight Loss Pills Or Supplements
When people decide to try weight loss pills they generally have no idea what ones to use and simply choose the wrong ones for their needs.
There are two different types of weight loss pills. Firstly there are the "Appetite Suppressants" and secondly the "Fat Burners". If you are a big and uncontrollable eater then you should focus on an appetite suppressant pill like Caralluma. On the other hand, if you can control your cravings and your weight gain is something that has taken time, then you would be best looking at a fat burner like Decatrim for example.
It would be a mistake to think that by just taking weight loss pills, they are the entire answer to your weight loss program. This is the main problem with peoples thinking, and to be fair it is a consequence of the false advertising the manufacturers of these weight loss pills undertake.
Don't misunderstand what I am trying to say here. Weight loss pills do work BUT they work best in conjunction with a program of exercise and calorie controlled eating. Of course I am speaking generally about the diet pill industry. There are good ones and bad ones that will just relieve you of your hard earned cash. This is common with many other weight loss programs.
As I mentioned earlier Decatrim and Caralluma are good choices.
2. Relying On Only Exercise Or Diet By Themselves
Trying to lose weight with just a single focus is not going to succeed.
I am always amazed at how many people think by doing one thing, they will lose weight. Effective weight loss is all about choosing a combination of things but with a mandatory requirement of burning calories. You will also need to reduce the amount of calories consumed.
The body will find the task of losing weight so much more difficult if it has to burn off the existing stores a fat, plus, burn off more and more excessive calories each day. Work hand in hand with your body to help it reduce fat reserves. Both exercise and the establishment of good eating habits will reduce the amount of fat retained in the body and support you weight loss goals.
3. Starvation
Your body does not respond the way you would like it to when it is subject to this type of situation. Starving yourself will not necessarily help you lose weight. It can actually have the opposite effect.
The body reacts in an amazing and totally protective manner. It defaults into a storage and survival mode. Just in case it is threatened with ongoing food shortage it stores the existing fat reserves for as long as it can. The body is fantastic in this way and automatically tries to protect you.
Starvation diets can take various forms including detox plans. These can cause serious organ damage if they are implemented for an extended time because they lack vital nutrition. Despite the fact they are an effective way of losing weight in the short term they are not sustainable over the long term.
Your weight loss will not last. You will more than likely do your body harm rather than good. Because you have not changed your diet in a positive long term way, you will simply return to your previous eating program and gain the weight back again.
4. Failure To Change Your Lifestyle
Reducing the volume and quality of calories is by far the most positive weight loss program you can undertake, provided you do not go too far.
Our body types dictate the level of calories we need each day. It makes sense to continually monitor the calorie intake as you begin to lose weight. It is also important not to reduce them too fast because your body still needs to feed. This calorie controlled program is to teach you how to eat for the long term and not just for a short period of time. This is the absolute KEY to maintaining a good weight balance. Maintaining a good exercise routine and eating habits will see great results.

The best way to lose weight and to maintain a good weight balance is to educate yourself about what constitutes good healthy eating and exercise then implement it as a lifestyle.

Here are your new rules:
1. Eat frequently
2. Eat smaller well balanced meals
3. Always have a protein and a fibrous carb
Sounds simple right! Well I am about to make it even simpler. Vegetables can be eaten in unlimited amounts, just make sure you are getting at least 5 servings of them a day. Let me caution you though, to start adding them in slowly. If you add fiber in too quickly, you can experience bloating and stomach discomfort. Try adding a new serving in every couple of days until you get to the 5 servings.
When it comes to fruits, enjoy a variety of them. Most people find it works best for them at 2-3 servings of fruits a day. Fruits can cause some digestive issues for some people, listen to your body and learn what works best for you. We want fruits due to their vitamins and nutrients so experiment with what amount works best for your body.
Protein- we need a serving of protein with every meal. That doesn't include fried chicken either. Keep it clean...
Skinless chicken
Lean turkey
Lean beef
Fish
Eggs
Lean steak
Pork
These are always good choices of good quality protein sources.
Eat frequently means 3 meals followed with 2 snacks a day. Here are some ideas of good snacks to incorporate into your diet.
Almonds + a fruit
Walnuts
Pecans
Pistachios
String cheese
Nut butter and celery
Pumpkin or sunflower seeds
Trail mix
Hard boiled eggs + a fruit
Greek yogurt
When it comes to the starchy carbs question, "Do I or Don't I". I am partial to DON"T!! Our grains have become somewhat of unhealthy food; however I know that is a difficult task for most of you so at least follow these three rules:
No white flour of any kind, stick with oatmeal, brown rice, potatoes, whole wheat bread, and whole wheat pastas.
Watch your portion sizes, a portion is not ½ the plate nor what a restaurant sees as a portion. This is where calories can really add up. Just a ¼ of your plate is all you need.
Only eat them after resistance training workouts. Yes, that's right you are going to have to earn your carbs. Complex carbohydrates are used for energy, if you're not working out what do you need the extra energy for? Besides, this will keep you on track with your workouts too.
Here are your new rules:
1. Eat frequently
2. Eat smaller well balanced meals
3. Always have a protein and a fibrous carb
Sugar is the villain here. We want to minimize the intake of sugar and artificial sweeteners drastically. If you want to lose weight, reduce your chances of diabetes, cancers, and heart disease then start breaking the habit now. Also, no trans fats (hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils) of any kind.
No Sodas not even diet
No alcohol
No donuts, cakes, or cookies
No fast food
No items with Trans Fats in the ingredients
Here is a great example of a day's worth of meals.
7:00 Am Breakfast
2 eggs scrambled with fresh spinach, green and yellow peppers and a serving of fruit
10:00 AM Snack
12 almonds and a peach
1:00 PM Lunch
Large Spinach/Romaine Salad with cucumber, celery, peppers, carrots, grilled chicken, and vinaigrette dressing or a drizzle of olive oil.
4:00 PM Snack
Celery with almond butter
6:30-7:00 PM Dinner
Grilled lean steak, roasted asparagus, and maybe a small salad or second vegetable of your choice.
Get use to eating food without a barcode. Food shouldn't come in a neat pretty little package full of advertising junk. It should be something you place in a bag, can wash and eat. If you really want to be lean, healthy, free of disease and aches and pains then you need to start reevaluating what you're putting into your body. Food shouldn't taste better than good health feels.

Bread, pasta, and baked macaroni with cheese: Sometimes people include these foods in their plan to lpse weight. They misunderstood bread and pasta is good, however they could actually contain empty calories and sugar. It contains white flour that is full of empty calories.

Sodium: Reduce the amount of salt content in your food because this can add to your weight and it can cause high risk disease on your kidneys too.

Going on a low carb diet can be a hassle and for food lovers it can really complicate and change your lifestyle. The thought of that may immediately scare some potential dieters away from this nutrition plan but the benefits of this diet substantially outweigh the disadvantages of it and any complications or inconveniences that it may cause you. To bring back some of the users who may have been afraid of sacrificing some of their favorite eating habits, let's start by discussing one of the biggest reasons that people are thrilled when they look at the results that their eating changes have produced.

Weight loss has never been so easy to achieve with only one simple strategy. Most people that that to lose weight you need the proper diet, exercise, and need to count every single calorie that you eat throughout your day. That is completely false. Lowering your carb intake will not only help you lose any extra unhealthy weight you might have, but it does so no matter how much or how little you exercise. You do not even need to count your calories; it is like an automatic system that cannot fail.

This is why these kind of eating changes are now being used to treat and control obesity. Experiments and tests have been run by scientists to determine how effective this method really is at losing weight. The conclusion scientists have come to is that a low carb diet is much easier for participants to follow than a low fat diet and more importantly it also produces a much greater weight loss than limiting your fat consumption does.

The level of triglycerides in your bloodstream will be lowered which means that you will have a smaller chance of being diagnosed with heart disease, hardened arteries and you will reduce your risk of suffering a stroke. Diabetics and potential diabetics will also reduce their blood glucose levels which can seriously help limit how much your diabetes affects your life. There are also many physical and mental benefits that are more easily noticed. Increased energy levels, less or no cravings at all for sweet tooth items, better mental concentration and focus and better dental health and hygiene are all benefits of strictly following a low carb diet.

The combination of all of these things along with your new improved health is scientifically proven to increase your mood in general and make you a happier person. In rarer but not completely uncommon cases, individuals have reported improvement in joint or muscle pain, fewer headaches, and healthier skin when sticking to this diet. The list of benefits can go on and on and continue to benefit you and your health for the rest of your life. The only negative is that you will have to make some possibly significant eating changes. Once you adapt to the changes, this diet can and will give you the clean bill of health that you have always dreamed of.

If you keep a food journal you could double your success rate at losing weight. A recent study of 1700 overweight men and women who kept a food diary for 20 weeks saw a greater amount of weight lost than those who did not keep one.
One of the extra benefits is that it is easier to keep the weight off for the long-term which is harder than just losing it and you need all the helpful tools you can get to maintain those lost pounds.
A food journal works.
A food journal helps you because they:
1) Make you accountable
2) Help you understand where your calories are coming from
3) Identify if any extra calories are sneaking back into your diet
4) Act as a deterrent - just by knowing that you have to write it down suddenly makes that second helping not so important
5) Provide you with a concrete record of your success
One of the enlightening discoveries you can make by keeping a food journal is what an actual portion size looks like. For example a serving of rice or pasta is just a half a cup. Many of us would be guilty of having four or more servings of these things without understanding how they can allow you to pile on the pounds.
A food journal is important also to make sure you are getting enough of the macro- nutrients each day - these are protein, carbohydrates and fats. You should be getting around 40 percent good carbohydrates (vegetables etc) 30 percent protein and 30 percent of your calories each day split up in to these approximate ratios.
Why these ratios you say? Well this balance of food intake has been proven to allow steady fat loss yet still provide enough energy to be able to put some effort into a proper strength training program. Only strengthening exercise can help you recover, rebuild and re-tone lost and weak flabby muscles are these are the drivers of your metabolism.
This is the best way to eat and exercise for maximum fat loss and a food journal can help you pull it all together so it works. It is important when losing body fat that you eat enough food, rather than food restriction. Just a hundred or two each day is all it takes to lose fat but if you slash your calories too much it will have the opposite effect - it will slow your metabolism.
A food journal is your secret weapon
So, with your food journal you can see each day exactly what you are eating and if you are not losing fat then you can drop another 100 calories out until you start losing fat. The secret is not to go more than a hundred or so at any one time. If you do your body will get what is called 'diet shock' and go into survival mode which will make you store more fat not lose it.
Your food journal can be just a simple note book with some ruled lines for protein, carbohydrates, fats and calories. During the day take a few minutes to update it and add things up so you can see where you are at. If you are short on any of the macro-nutrients or have not eaten enough calories (or too many) at the end of the day you can them make some adjustments. For example if you have not eaten enough protein you could have a serving of whey protein powder in some water which would up your protein count but not increase the other macro-nutrients.
Some people complain that keeping a food journal is inconvenient, but surely being overweight and lacking the energy to live life to the fullest is way more inconvenient. You don't have to keep it forever but you do need to keep it till you have learned a new way of eating so you not only lose that excess fat weight but are able to keep it off permanently.
For some people this might be a few weeks. For others it could be months or a year or more. But if you are serious about losing weight a food journal is the backbone of your weight loss plan.

If you have ever struggled with losing weight, then you may have come to the conclusion that it is virtually impossible to do so. The reality is that it doesn't have to be all that hard. On the other hand, if you think that taking off those extra pounds is a quick and easy process that doesn't require any effort on your part, then you are going to be let down. If you're sincere about weight loss and you're ready to follow a sensible eating plan, get moving and changing your attitude, you will lose weight more quickly.

Sometimes it seems as though diet and weight loss plans are a regular part of our lives; coming and going more often than we would like to admit. These are often fad diets that we latch on to in the hopes of finally finding the one that "really works". However, it's not a good idea to start any diet before you fully understand. The good news is that there are diet programs that have stood the test of time, and have been proven to work. Another thing that you may want to consider is that weight loss is not a one-time physical act. Instead, it's a lifestyle change that you incorporate into your life.

Let's be clear, there are many reasons why people don't stick to weight loss programs, but lack of motivation usually isn't one of them. What's needed are some basic ways of increasing the odds of success. Here are some things you can do to put the odds in your favor.

1. Maintain your focus - A lot has been said about willpower and its lack of effectiveness. The problem with willpower is that it sets up the wrong mindset. When you think about it, you only need willpower when you are feeling deprived. Once you start thinking about things you can't have, or how hard it all is, you are setting yourself up for failure. You need something better, and that's where focus comes in. It's the opposite of willpower. Focus on why you want to lose weight, what your ultimate goal is, and how you will feel once you reach your target weight. When you're focused, you are thinking about the positive aspects of your weight loss plan, and that's a good thing.

2. Get moving - Some people like to call this exercise, but at the same time, that word has negative connotations for a lot of people. Regardless of what you call it, you need to get moving if you want to increase your chances of success. The key is to participate in activities that you enjoy. This could be going for a walk, bowling, dancing, gardening, or playing frisbee. Just remember that any extra activity equals extra calories burned.

3. Effort - Yes, weight loss takes effort. There is no way around it. Fortunately, the more effort you put in, the more weight you will lose.

Obesity is one among the many predicaments that beset people nowadays owing to the busy lifestyle, technological advancement, and emergence of convenience foods. Not only does too much weight lead to certain diseases, but also negatively affect self-confidence. Time is of the essence, and people usually do not have the patience on work outs that do not seem to produce the desired results. Well, there is the famous liposuction that provides instant freedom from the extra baggage; yet the cost is often too high and the complications associated with it cannot be underrated. Fortunately there are weight loss schemes that can bring about immediate results less the cost and health risk. Below are some of the best ways to lose weight quickly.
1. Increase your fiber intake. Fiber helps reduce weight by sweeping away toxins and excess fats from the body. It also regulates bowel movement and keeps the body safe from certain diseases. Oats, cereals, fruit and vegetables are the best sources of fiber. You can replace your usual ham and egg breakfast with multi-grain foods, your sugary desserts with slices of your favorite fruits, or your high-calorie snacks with vegetable salads. But if you want it served instant, you may opt for natural fiber supplements. These are widely available in the market, and you just have to choose one that works well with your stomach.
2. Do a cardio exercise every morning. Experts confirm that cardio or aerobic exercises help burn more calories than most other forms of exercise. You may only strain your muscles and wear yourself out with strenuous exercises. You wouldn't want to go about your daily schedule looking tired and drained, and make the people around you think that you are problematic. An hour of brisk walking daily can help you lose pounds as much as 3 hours in the gym can do. You may also try cycling, dancing, or a treadmill exercise.
3. Regulate your calories. To watch the amount of calories you take daily will help diminish the chances of gaining excessive weight. Calories are present in almost any food that we eat, and are in large amount in convenience food. There is no need to go crazy about calories and memorize the calorie content of each food served on the dining table. All you have to do is to go natural and appreciate the foods cooked at home. Add fruits and vegetables to your diet, and limit your cravings for meat, ready meals, and dairy products.
Learning the best ways to lose weight quickly can save you from any scheme that do not guarantee positive results or have the tendency to impair your health. It presents easy alternatives to backbreaking exercises and strict dieting that most of us believe are the best ways to lose weight quickly. To eat more fiber-rich food, do a regular cardio exercise, and control intake of calories are methods that do not demand much. These are guaranteed safe and effective, and best of all, do not need too much spending.
