Not too long ago, many people were not aware what cholesterol was, they just happily ate whatever they liked. But with all the latest nutritional information floating around in cyber-space or on the TV,  people are becoming more aware of how cholesterol (especially bad cholesterol) levels can affect their lives.

What is cholesterol? How will you know if you have a healthy cholesterol level or a dangerously high cholesterol level? Does it make any difference or are we just worried about nothing? Can cholesterol affect my weight loss diet?

Yet another great post from those guy’s…

Keep up the good work.

How do you stop making those weight loss excuses?

Losing weight is not that easy but you have to discipline yourself and actually do something about it. Next time you think about starting a healthy weight loss diet, ask yourself why you make excuses every time you commit to a program.

Don’t be afraid of change…

The way you think will ultimately affect how you succeed with your healthy weight loss efforts. The more negative you think, the more excuses you’ll come up with and the easier it will be to FAIL.

Don’t let your low self-esteem win the battle over you. Strive just a little harder for something that is important to you and you will lose weight.

When trying to lose weight, it’s not about starving yourself and living on mineral water. If you don’t eat enough then the only place that you will be feeling lighter is your head. Also, research shows that if you do lose any pounds they will be more than likely come back, with added extras! So chose your weight loss diet with care and think positive and your weight is bound to melt off!

A team from Northwestern University, Illinois, found that when you eat, not just how you eat, could make a big difference.

Scientists found that when mice ate at unusual hours, they put on twice as much weight, despite exercising and eating as much as others.

The study, in the journal Obesity, is said to be the first to show directly that there is a “wrong” time to eat.

Recent studies have suggested that circadian rhythms, the body’s internal clock, have a role in how our bodies use up energy.

However, this had been difficult to definitively pin down.

The experiment looked at two groups of mice over a six-week period. Both groups were fed a high-fat diet, but at different times of the mice “waking cycle”.

One group of mice ate at times when they would normally be asleep. They put on twice as much weight.

This was despite them doing the same level of activity, and eating the same amount of food, as the other mice.

Your Weight Loss Program – www.weightlosshere.org/weight-loss-program

The site seems to be put together with a professional touch and stands out amongst the ‘one-page’ weight loss web sites you tend to come accross constantly… I hope their weight loss and dieting promises live up to their site design (if you are the website owner readin this post – ‘only joking’ your content is great!).

Here’s a clip from one of their weight loss pages:

Although there is no magic pill or potion that will help you lose weight, there are natural and healthy foods that will help you on your way.
If you’re new to weight loss then, you’re probably counting calories, reducing your fat intake and watching your portion sizes. Which to a certain degree is all good…
However, what you eat is probably more imortant than how much you eat.

Consuming low-calorie processed junk and other prepared foods might keep you within your calorie guidelines for the day, but your body and your metabolism struggle to function properly fueled by nutrient-poor foods filled with ‘empty’ calories…

It’s all about how we find it difficult to start exercising. Here’s a snippet from the article…

Why get fit?

There are all kinds of reasons why many of us find it hard to start exercising – our day-to-day lives require a lot less physical activity than in our grandparents’ or even parents’ day, most of us own cars and rely on them to get around, and more and more people spend hours sitting in front of computers.

Enjoy…

The website I’m talking about is a little obscure (but I don’t think it’s going to stay that way) and is by a lady up in Scotland – Glasgow I think.

She (Sue) seems to have a firm grasp on the weight loss industry and although I have not tried her weight loss product the quality of her blog posts seem to stand out to me amongst all the weight loss junk I have to wade through on a regular basis.

Here is a good example of a post from her blog…  It’s called ‘Are You Ready To Lose Weight‘ and it deals with bouncing from one weight loss program to another and how you can combat this ‘yo-yo’ problem.

“Like smoking, over eating is a habit that is quite difficult to break for the majority of people.” – Well hasn’t she got that just about right!!  I remember when I was at my local high school (yes I was a bit on the chubby side myself), the smell of the local pizza parlour used to drive me crazzzzy all day!  And when I got home… PIZZA was on the menu.

She gets my thumbs up!

I’ll continue to monitor Sue’s website http://suegotslim.com and report back on her new weight loss updates…

In this workout you will be doing 10 different exercises. You need a chair, and something that will allow you to do pull ups.

For each exercise you will do 4  rounds of 15 seconds of intense work and 15 seconds of rest. This means that you will have 2 minutes for each exercise.
