Losing Body Fat Is The Way To Fitness

-
Losing body fat should be your goal. We are so worried about what the scale says that we don't pay attention to our waistline. Your waistline should measure half your height. For example, I'm 72 inches tall so my waistline (at the naval) should be no more than 36 inches. I know what some of you are thinking, "Is that even possible at my age?" It's possible at any age. 

It's not unusual for an adult to have an extra 10 pounds of food in their digestive system. If you follow a good diet and do a little more exercise you'll see results in a couple of months. Don't expect results fast. The only weight that you can lose in a couple of days is the extra waste matter in your digestive system. After that disappears you will generally stop losing weight and that's when most people give-up. The first 10 pounds you lose isn't fat, it's just bloat. You want to lose fat for permanent weight lose. 

The only way you lose fat is if your body burn the fat as fuel. So, the way I did it was to stop eating animal fat and all processed foods. I did that by eating more seafood. Seafood has a different type of fat that your body needs. Some plants contain fats that your body needs. Most animal fats are simply stored in fat cells in case of emergancy. Yes, the body can burn animal fats but only a few grams a day. We will normally consume 10 times that much, so the body just stores the excess. The only way I found to lose fat was to stop eating foods that add fat to your body. Do your homework, the internet is full of good information on weight loss. 

Read up on weight loss and losing body fat. It doesn’t cost money to lose weightier fat. The internet is full of free information. But the quickest way and cheapest way is to buy an ebook online and get everything you need in one short read. I have two ebooks on Amazon:

The Mediterranean diet is based on the traditional foods eaten by people living in the Mediterranean region, especially Greece. It's loaded with healthy foods and research findings suggest following this diet may help reduce some of the risk factors for heart disease.  According to the Oldways Preservation & Exchange Trust, the Mediterranean diet was introduced in 1993 by Oldways, Harvard School of Public Health and the World Health Organization.  The diet includes: Olives and olive oil Whole grains, mostly in bread and cereal rather than pasta Very little red meat Fish and seafood Some cheese, but less milk Lots of vegetables and fruit Plenty of legumes and nuts A little red wine The Mediterranean diet is high in fiber and antioxidants from vegetables, legumes and nuts, far greater than the typical Western diet, and low in saturated fat.

Changing Your Life To Lose Weight

I can let you in on the ultimate secret for successfully making a change in your life. A century’s worth of psychological research reveals an interesting paradox in who we are. On the one hand, once we reach adulthood our basic personalities remain unchanged for the rest of our lives. We keep doing the same things—and feeling the same ways—over and over. But, on the other hand, every day we change our behavior drastically in response to different environments. Most of us are one person at work, for example, and another person at home. It is easier to change our environment than to change ourselves. So, if you want to change yourself, change your environment. Said differently: Whenever possible, don’t try to fight temptations – avoid them! The easiest way to make a change in your life is to modify the world around you in ways that will naturally drive you toward making, and maintaining, the change you want. There are many ways to change your environment, but let’s focus

Cancer and High Protein Diets

-
On the Fox TV Network the other night, one of the big stories was about high protein diets. A new study has shown a link between the over consumption of animal protein and how it can stimulate the growth of cancer cells. It seems we all have cancer cells but they don’t normally grow, unless we consume too much animal fat, dairy or fats from processed foods. Before I continue I want to explain about the link to cancer. After all, Man has been eating red meat for millions of years, right. That's true but todays red meat is not the same. Most red meat that we buy in the supermarket comes from Steers that have been raised in feed lots on a grain diet that is full of hormones and other chemicals that shorten the growing time and put more fat on the animal. These hormones and other chemicals stay in the meat and what you're buying will contain the chemicals that the animal ate. Normally a grass feed Steer that lives on the range in big herds will take 18 to 20 months to grow to
