While you may be able to use some simple meals to reach you goals, some of us use supplements like Hoodia.

Others of us use brain power like

For those of you who apply some common sense the following article

Research continues to reveal that almost everyone needs to eat more fruits and vegetables. They are critical to promoting good health. To ensure you get the amount recommended, you need to increase the amount of fruits and vegetables you eat every day.

Current research suggests that fruits and vegetables contain essential vitamins, minerals and fiber that helps protect us from chronic diseases. Those who eat more generous amounts as part of a healthy diet are more likely to have reduced risk of:

• Stroke
• Cardiovascular disease
• Certain cancers

Daily nutrients should come primarily from the foods we eat. Fruits and vegetables contain vitamins and minerals and other naturally occurring substances to help protect us from chronic disease. Although you can find the same vitamins and minerals in supplements, some of the other natural occurring substances may not be present in a supplement. However, for some people, it may be necessary to also include fortified foods or supplements. Fortified food contains a nutrient in an amount greater than what is usually found in that food. You should never rely totally on supplements for daily vitamins and minerals.

Weight loss strategies substituting fruits and vegetables for higher-calorie foods can be very effective. Fresh fruits and vegetables are easy to eat while on-the-go. They are a natural source of energy and give the body essential nutrients to help keep us healthy while living busy lives.

To ensure a healthy variety of fruits and vegetables, think color. When you eat fruits and vegetables of different colors you give the body a wide range of valuable nutrients such as:

• Fiber
• Folate
• Potassium
• Vitamins A and C

Some examples include:

• Green spinach
• Orange sweet potatoes
• Black beans
• Yellow corn
• Purple plums
• Red watermelon
• White onions

Try new fruits and vegetables on a regular basis.

A serving of fruit or vegetables is usually a cup. A cup refers to the common measuring cup. One cup of raw or cooked vegetables or 100% vegetable juice, or 2 cups of raw leafy greens can be considered as 1 cup from the vegetable group. One cup of fruit or 100% fruit juice, or ½ cup of dried fruit can be considered as 1 cup from the fruit group.

This next week you very well may be in front of a t.v. watching college bowl games and eating. This Christmas and New Years season is a great time to consume mass quantities of empty calories and “rich” meals.

And we haven’t even left out the parties ,family gatherings, friends stopping by with gifts and food and drink. All that wonderful food and me watching my weight. That is definitely the time for some appetite control. Without that 10 pounds jump on my frame in a week easily.

Don’t know about you, but for those of us who love to eat and party it wreaks havoc with a stay slim attitude. There is a answer with appetite suppressants made from all natural South African Hoodia

As well as being less physically active during these holidays, some of us spend time in front of the computer learning things like Simpleology- which I personally use to great advantage due to my ADD. That course by Mark Joyner has me doing small steps at a time to make a larger big difference over time. Prior to discovery of Simpleology my time spent working on my blogs was disjointed and not very productive.

So, when you want to get more done in less time so you won’t miss a bowl game or party or family gathering why not checkout that link www.simpleology.com/training/blogging

I’m evaluating a multi-media course on blogging from the folks at Simpleology. For a while, they’re letting you snag it for free if you post about it on your blog.

It covers:

• The best blogging techniques.
• How to get traffic to your blog.
• How to turn your blog into money.

I’ll let you know what I think once I’ve had a chance to check it out. Meanwhile, go grab yours while it’s still free.

which is yet another example of “word of mouth” advertising.

My walking has been hampered a little bit by some winter weather so I’m spending more time online learning about things that will make life better and came across the following article which points out another reason why the Chinese are not normally fat people.

The number of men and women walking around with abnormally large bellies is increasing at an alarming rate. It sometimes is called “beer belly” but more and more of them are from other causes. Not only is fat belly disfiguring, but it is also life-shortening. The fast food industry can be blamed for much of this — satisfying a person’s hunger by serving a piece of meat inside a large bun ( made from white flour), and accompanied by a side dish of French fries and a large soda or Coke (containing high fructose corn syrup), and a dessert of pie or ice cream. All in all, it is a very high calorie meal with very little nutritional value except for some protein in the meat. It is severely lacking in vitamin and mineral content.

One’s body can handle only a limited amount of carbohydrate. Carbohydrates stimulate the pancreas to secret insulin into the blood to take care of the sugar by turning it into adipose (fatty) tissue which tends to settle in the midsection of the body, and it is the most difficult fat to get rid of, giving rise to the fat belly.

Another factor that enters into our seeing more than normal numbers of fat bellies is that we do not cook at home as much as we used to. For a meal, instead of food with high vitamin and mineral content we reach for the bread to make quick sandwiches, or we cook spaghetti. Or we put some potatoes into the microwave, and we eat cake or pie or ice cream for dessert. And we serve soft drinks for the beverage.

None of it is very nutritious. I forgot to mention the bagel or doughnut we had for breakfast.

Food should be chosen to rebuild and regenerate the billions of cells that need replacing every day. Cells need a constant supply of minerals and vitamins and protein to do their work. The American Medical Association has told us that the soils where our food is grown are depleted of minerals, so everyone should be taking a vitamin-mineral pill every day to supply the body with essential micronutrients. If we eat nutrient depleted food the big belly will just get bigger.

The vitamin-mineral supplements that are sold most places, are manufactured with the “bottom line” in mind. They often are covered with a coating
to keep them from breaking down in the containers in which they are sold, and they more often than not do not dissolve in the digestive tract. Tons of them are found whole in sewage systems. They solve no problems for the big belly.

It would be better to use an all -in -one liquid nutritional supplement that has everything in it that the body needs.- where the particles are broken down into angstrom size giving them access into the blood stream and into the cells of the body in seconds for 98% absorption without having to be digested by the GI tract.

Imagine yourself 10, 20 up to 60 pounds…….

Have you often wondered how you would feel even 10, 20 or 60 pounds lighter than you are today? Imagine being the much lighter and thinner and maybe even a whole lot healthier at a lower scale tipping, smaller clothes size, looser belt size.

Well it can happen

If I can do it with may “sweet tooth” and carb craving lifestyle then you know you can make it happen with just a few changes the will not leave you hungry but rather give you a “full” feeling all day…… and right up till bedtime.

For the most part it’s done with foods you can get at the local grocery. All I did was start eating smaller meals every 2 or 3 hours- ok, I know you’re thinking “but I’m at work and can’t eat every couple hours” but with snacks like boiled eggs, a handful of walnuts or almonds or a quick cup of microwave oatmeal, then yes you can.

Sometimes we get so caught up in what we’re doing that we don’t eat for 7 or 8 hours and are then ravenous, go home and pig out till it hurts. Oh ya, that’s me sometimes.

I do try to eat “right” and it works along with some form of exercise- my choice is dodging fast moving cars and trucks on a two lane country road while getting at least 2 and some frisky days 5 miles of walking. It is not a breathtaking 5 mile an hour pace either, but a more leisurely 3 to 4 per hour pace. A little exercise makes me think clearer too.

So is there a secret? Well, not really. Just eat less and move more…… ok I do supplement with a multi-vitamin and take “hoodia” , eat more meals each day which makes me eat less food overall .
