Weight Loss Program- Which Program Is Really Worth It?

Many of my friends use a specific weight loss program to help keep them in shape. Each one of them uses a different program - trying techniques and foods that work for them specifically (after a long process of trying other weight loss programs that were simply scams or fads and did not achieve any long term weight loss for them.)

In this respect, how do you know that the weight loss program that YOU invest in will actually make a difference?

Well, it is my firm belief from both trial and experience, that it is not just the foods that you eat or the exercise plan you follow contained in the weight loss program that gets you the body you want but rather something much deeper. As someone who has a working knowledge of NLP, (the mechanics of the mind) I know that we all have deeply ingrained habits and patterns that we subconsciously use to make choices and which aids the direction that we take in life. Some of these patterns are associated with food and the way we habitually eat and because of this - we find it difficult to sustain any measurable results because our new diet contradicts the beliefs we have always had about food. We try a diet or a weight loss system only to slip back into emotional eating... we get de-motivated, we think negative thoughts about our body and therefore render the weight loss program useless or at least very short term.

On this note, the only way to get a weight loss program to work for you is to pick one that promises to change not only your diet but also show you ways to re-frame the habits that govern your current lifestyle. In other words - from the inside out. If your beliefs about weight loss were truly changed within your subconscious mind, losing weight would be effortless. Your mind and body would be in harmony and your thoughts would not make it difficult for you to stick to your diet program. In fact, your new and positive thoughts and habits would serve to enhance whatever regime you picked in order to achieve full and lasting weight loss.

I cannot stress enough how difficult it is to achieve weight loss with any program without first getting your brain - the ultimate program - to work with you during the process. I think I speak for everyone who has tried to keep weight off (and relapsed into their old way of living within a short time) when I say - it's not the program that's hard to follow, it's your desire and negative body image that keeps you stuck. Not many people realise that it is the mind achieving your weight loss goals not the body. The body is just following a set of conscious and subconscious demands.

Ensure that the weight loss program you choose understands this mind-body link and will help you achieve your goals in both areas equally or else you will harm your success rate. It is a waste of money to invest in a diet alone - if it was that easy, every one would be their perfect size and shape.

I have spent some time trying to find you the ultimate weight loss program that grasps what I'm talking about and provides you with both inner and outer weight loss so that you are certain to get results. The creator of this program is called Anthony Fleming - once a stranger now a friend due to my obsession with his life changing work!

Anthony is a motivational speaker and NLP practitioner who has spent many years doing some serious training on weight loss techniques, helping his clients achieve permanent weight loss and more importantly showing people real ways to gain self-love and control in all aspects of life. Due to his program's success on the ground, he has been convinced to begin offering it online.

I have full confidence that Anthony is the man to fulfill all of your weight loss goals (otherwise I wouldn't embarrass myself by putting it on my blog) and I'm very happy that he has decided to share his gift with those of us who need a little help :)

Here is the link to his site so you can browse some of his work and check out his proven weight loss program-  http://www.passion4life.org  

Good Luck as always,

Lose Weight Fast And Naturally - 10 Natural Weight Loss Tips

To lose weight fast and naturally, there are things you can begin to do right now before you invest your time and money in the latest weight loss products. Having seen some of the weirdest and unfounded weight loss tips out there, I would like to bust some myths and so have compiled ten of my own most simple yet useful weight loss tips online for you to begin using today as part of your daily weight loss regime - tips that I have researched, used and would recommend to anyone. Good Luck!


Top 10 tips To Lose Weight Fast And Naturally


1. To lose weight fast, you might have heard that drinking copious amounts of water is a negative thing to do as it plumps out your skin and increases bloating. It is true that water does fill out your skin - but only as an anti-aging benefit to the surface of your body. The reality is that drinking at least 8 glasses a day massively increases your metabolism, detoxes trapped fat residue and therefore aids the weight loss process in an epic way. 
I have to add that for people who don't like drinking water, it's best to achieve this task by keeping a bottle beside you during the day and sipping at it regularly - it'll be gone in no time. Some crazy nutritionists have said that you should add a cordial to it if you do not like the taste of plain water - but I'm sorry to tell you... it doesn't count. Cordial is either full of chemicals or sugar and both are counter productive in your weight loss goals. If you are committed to losing weight fast and naturally, then it's water and water only that'll make the weight loss difference you crave.    


2. Weight loss foods are often bland and it is this lack of taste that increases your will to eat something sugary and delicious. Having grown my own herbs for the last few years, I can tell you that cooking something low fat is much easier and tastier with seasoning. Specifically, when your on a weight loss diet plan, you need to add some stronger flavours to replace all the evil ingredients that your trying to avoid. Tarragon, garlic, chilli and my favourite - rosemary, are great herbs and spices to incorporate into your meals. As you experiment with different flavours, you'll realise how many different ways there are to really begin to love wholesome food again.


3. To lose weight fast and naturally, it's time to look at the chilli pepper in a more favourable light. Spicy ingredients such as these burn up to 40% of your body fat and increase metabolism incredibly. If you want to be thin, it's time to spice it up.


4. Fast Weight loss begins in your head. If you cannot believe that you are going to lose weight or you feel negative about yourself, chances are that you'll not be motivated to reach your goals and even if you lose the weight, you'll slip back into old patterns that match your thinking. Long term weight loss only comes from the understanding that you can do anything you set your mind to and that you are an incredible human being. Much of the weight gain we acquire over the course of our lives can be linked to insecurities rooted in childhood that we aven't been able to shift alone. Anytime I have negative patterns of behavior to clear (and this method is endorsed by some of the world's leading hypno-therapists) I use a subliminal mind track to make deep and lasting changes in how I view myself. It is an effective way to lose weight fast and naturally. Here is the tracks that I use, pick the one that applies to your own personal self beliefs - subliminal weight loss mp3/CD


5. Cheryl Cole once said - "As long as you exercise regularly and keep moving, you can eat whatever you want." Now, I wouldn't go as far as that but I will say this. If you find yourself tempted by Mr.chocolate bar waving to you from the cupboard, don't beat yourself or starve yourself of treats. Rewards are as much a part of the process as sacrifice. To lose weight fast and naturally, keep in mind that you are allowed to have some naughty foods but never forget to keep moving. If you are going to indulge in something rich in fat or sugar, jog on the spot while eating it or continue doing your daily tasks. This may seem silly but if you are burning fat off as it's going in, you'll not feel as guilty when you are treating yourself. 


6.  If you want to lose weight, then throw your strict diet book in the bin. Often some of the more regimented weight loss systems encourage skipping meals and almost starving yourself. I can't emphasise enough how wrong this is and how little your body appreciates it. People who skip breakfast do not know that it is the first meal of the day that activates your metabolism. miss this opportunity and you've just wasted hours of fat burning time. Plus, when you deprive your body of food, you send it into panic mode and so it will store whatever you put into it- as fat to store - just incase you decide not to eat again. Clever little body.


7.  'Little and often' is a perfect approach to food as it gives your body no time to crave a big meal. This means you will always feel satisfied and not be inclined to snack as much. It also helps you realise that it's not a diet your on - your just eating more regularly in a more digestive friendly way.


8. Paul McKenna, in his book - 'I can make You Thin' says that if you do just two things when your eating you will reach your ideal weight fast. The first thing is to eat slowly and consciously. This means that when you are eating, don't just gulp it down without thinking - enjoy it, taste it and most importantly chew each bite at least 30 times. The smaller it is when you swallow it, the easier your body will find to break it down and pass it through your system naturally. If anything, you will allow yourself to enjoy what you eat and re- connect with it, cutting down on emotional eating. 


9. Caffeine is fat's best friend. That's right, if you want to lose weight fast and naturally, your going to have to reduce the amount of coffee, tea and Coca-cola that you drink in a week. All of these drinks are rich in caffeine, a stimulant that retards the burning process of stored fat by increasing your production of insulin. If you cannot function without your morning coffee, try and limit it to a 6oz cup - even if it means tricking yourself by buying a smaller cup!


10. Finally, to lose weight fast and naturally, I suggest a colonic irrigation. This process sounds alot scarier than it is and even on my first journey to the colonic clinic, I was certain that I would come out mentally scarred. In all honesty, after the session, I felt so clean and my skin was glowing. The water used, flushes out all the toxins and waste from your body that was slowing down your digestive system and keeping you from your weight loss goals. Get rid of the excess junk and you'll be able to start anew - lighter and fresher.


I hope that these weight loss tips have helped you realise the simple things that you can include in your daily life to ensure that you lose weight fast and naturally. 


All my best wishes,
Cherie

Exercises To Lose Belly Fat - You Probably Didn't Know...

Exercises to lose belly fat have been rolled out across the internet from videos to blogs and even ebooks. Unfortunately, as I was doing my much needed (yet very boring) research into what exercises would work the fastest for unwanted belly jelly - I uncovered so many contradictions that I started thinking about having a slice of cake instead.


Now, luckily, I happen to be very good friends with some seriously fit people, (people who make even my abs look like they're having an annual rest) and I peppered their advice through my own findings of the best exercises to lose belly fat so I have finally sourced something for you that works beyond my own understanding.


Before I go on, however, you know how I love to quash the myths around weightloss and ensure that you stop buying and investing in marketing magicians that aren't certified... so first I need you tell you this -

Mediterranean Diet - Delicious Weightloss

The Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest eating regimes in the world. It is unquestionably slimming and it's what I like to call 'delicious weightloss' since many of the diets out there are exceptionally nasty and sacrificial. 

In fact, Mediterranean based recipes are not only tasty but are very cheap and easy to make on a daily basis. In the modern society we live in today, you won't have to move to Sardinia   just to share in the secrets of the Mediterranean lifestyle...  

Motivational Weight Loss Quotes

In today's post I would like to list my Top 20 motivational weight loss quotes of all time. You might wonder how a few quotes could possibly help you on your weight loss journey but I believe that sometimes all you need is a little inspiration from people who started where you are now and have reached their ideal weight.


 In this way, your mind is stretched to the possibility that it is achievable and this belief is essential throughout the weight loss process (since every one of your goals begins in the mind...)

Vegan Weightloss - Lose Weight In Only One Step

When I first contemplated this weight loss method I was asked by a few of my friends - "What exactly is vegan weightloss? Is it just an extreme vegetarian plan?" Well, if you are a practising vegan, you'll reel at this blatent ignorance but for the rest of us a vegan is defined as follows -

"Veganism - The practice of eating neither meat nor other animal products, such as fish, milk and milk products, eggs, and honey; A way of life which strictly avoids use of any kind of animal products and services that are based on exploitation of animals." en.wiktionary.org/wiki/veganism. 


This means that as a vegan, you would not eat any animal or anything that is produced from its body. 


Now, although the fundamentals of veganism are built on rejecting animal cruelty and the exploitation of their resources, the indirect benefits of this type of diet are huge if practised correctly...

Weight Loss Drug - 'Health Beat' Exploits Weight Loss Companies

In the world of the 'weight loss drug', we are enveloped in a cloud of hope and fast, easy weight loss. 

We turn away from what's naturally available and instead are drawn into a web of hype and precise marketing. I would like to keep this particular post short and sweet and let this video do the talking.  

If it helps to alert you to the uncanny link between weight loss drugs and the addiction that huge retailers call 'making themselves money' then I've done my job...
