    Intro: How Did You Get Here

    How did you get to this moment of realization that something had to happen?

    You had that moment right? The a-ha moment that wakes you out of your slumber of denial. For

    whatever reason that brought you to this point, I congratulate you. Because you have recognized it

    you can take action and do something about it.

    How did you get to this point in your life? How did you gain the weight in the first place? It is

    important to address the issue so that you can be made conscious of it and avoid being undone by it

    in future.

    Did you start eating more?

    Did you eat more of the wrong foods?

    Sometimes just eating more empty calories can increase weight. In fact, most obese people

    don't eat more than their slimmer counterparts. It's what they eat that's causing them to gain weight. Did your exercise patterns change?

    Did you eat out of boredom?

    Are you an emotional eater?

    You need to think about it. Really study and examine how you eat, what is the thought that leads to

    the action?

    In the end it boils down to only two things for losing weight. And a lot of people probably won't

    like this, but these are the two things:

    what you eat and

    how much you move.

    You should eat sensibly but that does not mean you can't have a treat once in a while. Just not every

    day and not in large quantities. A lot of foods we eat regularly today have not yet been on the

    market shelves just 50 short years ago. And the weight of the average person reflects this.

    The consequence is of course that what we're eating is keeping the weight on our bodies. If we

    change our eating by lowering the input of high fat and simple carbohydrate foods, and move a little

    more like people 50 years ago did, we will lose the weight.

    So let's do our quick start to weight loss.

    Your Weight Loss Plan And Goal Setting

    You don't need a fixed meal plan that's going to make you feel as you're on a diet because let's face

    it - the diets are what got you here in the first place. Diets are always a temporary quick fix.

    What you need is a permanent, lifelong lifestyle change to get rid of the excess weight and to never

    get it back again.

    So I won't tell you what 5 meals you must each and every day. This is where you should start

    developing your own "survival" skills and use your own judgment. In the end you know yourself

    better than anyone else. I don't know about you but when I see organized meal plans I see

    unrealistic diets, deprivation and restriction. My mind is already working against it and it won't take

    long when my body does too.

    What I can tell you is you must eat well and exercise if you want any significant change on your

    body. You need to lose 3500 calories overall per week to lose 0,5 kilo of fat. To do this you willhave to lose at least 500 extra calories per day. It doesn't have to be torturous exercise but

    something as simple as playing with the kids, walking the dog or going for a ride on the bike. Of

    course you must understand you need to step up your efforts for that little bit extra to increase your

    level of burning calories.

    If you set up your weight loss goal to 1 kilo per week, you need to double your workout time or the

    intensity level. There are many activities where you can lose that amount of calories, like jump

    rope, treadmill, jogging and swimming which has many other benefits including low impact on

    your joints.

    How you go about this is in your hands. Find the starting level you're comfortable with and workyour way from there. And don't forget - to build the muscle you have to feed the muscle. Extra

    muscle tissue squeezes the fat from your system and burns it for energy. That's why it's very

    important to have a balanced diet. And when it comes to fat, don't consume more than 20 grams in a

    day. This way you won't be burdening your body with unwanted extra calories to burn.

    Eat smaller meals and watch the way you eat. Eat slower than normally, focus on chewing your

    food, take notice of how much food is in your plate. You don't want it to vaporize before your eyes

    and leaving you wanting seconds. Eating slower gives your brain enough time to register that you're

    full, as it normally takes about 30 minutes.

    Make a routine of exercising at least three times each week. Remember that any additional exercisewill contribute to burning calories and this helping you with the overall weight loss.

    As I've already written many times on my website - don't eliminate entire food groups but ensure

    you eat a balanced diet with a mixture of good fats and complex carbohydrates. You need carbs for

    energy for exercising and you also need good fats so your body can function normally. You can

    have the occasional bad fat treat but remember the amount of exercise you'll have to do to burn it

    off. It might even take away the appetite for it. ;-)

    Goal Setting

    What does the airplane pilot have in common with the ship's captain? They both know what's their

  • 8/9/2019 Quick Start to Weight Loss

    5/19

    destination before leaving the port.

    It sounds logical for them, right? But don't forget when you're embarking on a journey of your own

    - weight loss - you too need to have a goal in mind. You must know where you're going, otherwise

    you're saying that any destination will do.

    Don't fantasize about the weight you think it will make you lookgreat or the weight you had when you were a teenager. It does not

    mean that weight will make you look good today. The best thing to

    determine your ideal weight goal is to find a program that can

    calculate it for you. It considers several factors and it will show you

    the ideal interval for your height and age.

    So, what weight should you be?

    You can use any of the many body weight calculators on the internet. Here's one for quickcalculation: Ideal Weight Body Calculations on Halls.md.

    If you're 165 cm and 75 kg and 37 years old, the medical recommendation is between 52 kg

    and 68 kg (for women).

    Before embarking on your weight loss journey, don't forget to write down your body measurements.

    This way you'll be able to keep track of your progress even if a very small one. Otherwise you'll

    never know how far you've came. Once you'll see results the progress will motivate you even

    further.

    Your measurements' spreadsheet should include:

    Date Current

    Weight

    Bust Waist

    (belly

    button)

    Hips Thighs Right

    Upper Arm

    Left Upper

    Arm

    You can purchase a notebook to keep track of the measurements

    or create an Excel spreadsheet, whatever is more convenient for

    you. Don't forget to measure yourself every 20 or 30 days so you

    stay focused on your goal. I don't recommend weighing yourself

    less than 14 days before the last as you might become

    discouraged with the natural weight fluctuations when your body

    begins to change.

    The other thing about goal setting is that you have a real purpose and you see the achievable steps

    to attain it. You can think of it as a blueprint to your weight loss. Consider these two statements and

    answer which would keep you motivated longer:

    I will lose 10-30 kilos in the next 12 months.

    Or:

    By December 31st I will weigh 60 kilos. My current weight is 90 kilos therefore I need to

    lose 30 kilos. To achieve my goal of a 30 kilo weight loss I will need to lose at least 0,63

  • 8/9/2019 Quick Start to Weight Loss

    6/19

    kilos per week for the next 12 months.

    Then create monthly goals which will contribute to the wanted overall weight loss. You probably

    heard the expression, "How do you eat an elephant? - One bite at a time.". It's the same with weight

    loss - you achieve an overwhelming amount of weight loss by doing it one kilo at a time. It is these

    small, simple and unglamorous steps that lead to the life changing 30 kilo weight loss.

    Get very detailed and specific

    So if you started your program on January 1st, by February 1st you would have lost 2,5 kilos and

    your new weight would be 87,5 kilos. By February 15th you could weigh 86,3 kilograms. By March

    1st 85,1 kilos.

    You see where this is headed? It's better and more realistic to break your end goal into achievable

    little bite sizes so that you can see your progress and where you're headed. You'll appreciate and be

    motivated by this little successes that will help you get to your destination.

    By doing it this way you remove the pressure

    from thinking you need to lose 30 kilos right

    now. If you're thinking of your goal like that,

    you'll end up feeling like a failure as you'll be

    thinking about 30 kilos and seeing "only" 2

    kilos less on your scale.

    You have to know that the end, massive success

    comes with little goals you finish each and

    every month for 12 months.

    If you half kill yourself with low calorie diets and excessive exercise and find yourself losing over 3

    kilos per week just remember most of that weight is water and some very much needed lean muscle

    tissue. And that means almost all of it will return overnight. And we sure don't want to that, so keep

    with a realistic goal and permanent healthy weight loss.

    You Are What You Eat

    Good Fats

    In their basic building block form they are simply known as monounsaturated and polyunsaturated

    fats. They play several important roles in hormone production and help to aid in proper cell

    function.

    These types of fats contain Omega-3 fatty acids, fish is a source rich in this fat. Omega-3 has been

    known to reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and stroke. If you want to

    preserve your health for the long term then you should make fish and fish oils a regular part of your

    diet.

    If embarking on a diet low in fat the positives are that less fat consumed, less fat stored on your

    body. You are still able to eat many of the foods you enjoy without the restrictions of the Atkins orlow carb diets. You get to have a balance in your diet. Simply restricting foods high in bad fats from

    your eating plan means you get to eat a wide variety of foods just avoiding the high fat versions.

    Just remember, do not eliminate all fats from your diet, not all fats are bad for you. We need a

    certain amount of good fats in our daily diet for our bodies to function at their peak.

    Be mindful this is still a diet nonetheless and you still have to exercise restraint over yourself when

    selecting foods. This diet is not as restrictive as those calorie counting ones yet you still may be

    tempted to cheat. If you are to go on this type of diet the control has to come from you rather than

    from a strict eating plan that does the meal plan for you.

    What it comes down to as with anything in life, we have to be self governing and exercise

    commitment to our goals. Nobody can make you lose the weight or lose the weight for you. You

    have to want to lose the weight and stick to it until you do.

    Bad fats

    These fats tend to be the saturated fat and of the trans fat variety. There is a

    link between saturated fats and cardiovascular heart disease, it is this type of

    fat that raises your cholesterol levels. It usually exists in diets that are high inanimal fats which is why the Atkins and low carb diet models aren't usually

    the best kind.

    Although Atkins himself has found no increase in cholesterol levels with his way of eating, we still

    do not know what the long term effects this kind of eating will produce. Diets high in saturated

    (animal) fats have been linked to certain cancers.

    If your diet is high in cholesterol, fats deposit themselves on your arterial walls restricting blood

    flow to your heart and to your body. Your heart then has a tougher job of pumping blood to the rest

    of your body which increases your blood pressure.

    Your heart may also increase in size to force the blood through your arteries causing angina a

    condition known as enlargement of the heart. Through blood pressure increase comes kidney

  • 8/9/2019 Quick Start to Weight Loss

    8/19

    damage and damage to the smaller capillaries in your eyes causing eventual reduction in eyesight

    and possible blindness if blood pressure is not controlled.

    Trans fatty acids are amongst the worst kind of fat to have in high quantities in your diet. Fats or

    oils that have partial hydrogenation are more than likely to be Trans fatty. This type of fat lowers the

    amount of healthy cholesterol (HDL high density lipoproteins) which throws the system out of

    balance by increasing the amount of bad cholesterol present.

    Foods High In Fat & What To Watch For

    We touched upon this earlier in terms of the types of fats to avoid and the kinds that we should be

    incorporating more into our daily diet.

    Ok, you know about saturated and tran's fats. The fats that tend to be solid at room temperature are

    of the saturated kind.

    Here are some common fats that are high in saturated fat content:

    Animal fats such as dripping

    Bacon grease

    Crisco

    Margarine

    Coconut oil

    Palm oil

    Hydrogenated oils

    Partially hydrogenated oils

    Both Hydrogenated oils and partially hydrogenated oils are liquid oils that have been solidified by

    having hydrogen forced into them at high pressures. The process of hydrogenation is to preserve the

    oil for longer in its solid form but because this process change its form it also alters its chemical

    properties turning it from healthy unsaturated fat to Trans fat, the dangerous kind.

    This is the type of fat that causes arteriosclerosis and blocks the arteries in your heart. Keep these

    fats to a minimum in your diet. In fact, if you want to lose weight on an ongoing basis you need to

    limit the amount of fat you consume to a total of 20 grams or less per day.

    So watch for calories and fat. You can be fooled by small snacks that seem harmless enough likewith the ice cream treat, but it's not until you find out the fat content that you realize how easy it can

    be to put on weight.

    Foods With High Fat Content

    French Fries

    Animal fats

    Fried bacon

    Potato chips

    Cake

    Cookies Candy

    Sausages

  • 8/9/2019 Quick Start to Weight Loss

    9/19

    Tartar sauce

    Pizza (you can make your own low fat alternative)

    Donuts

    Whole cream butter

    Cream Cheese

    Sour Cream

    Danishes

    Whole Mayonnaise

    Whole Cheddar cheese

    Nuts and olives

    Avocadoes

    There are a couple on that list that probably standout such as the nut, olive and avocadoes. Some

    healthy foods contain fat but also hold high nutritional value and are beneficial to you. Avocado

    contains fat but is the kind that is actually good for your heart.

    We need carbohydrates in our diet. They are source of fuel the body uses for energy once brokendown during the process of digestion.

    During digestion, carbohydrates are broken down into sugars, providing the body with a steady

    source of energy. Carbohydrates come in two forms simple (monosaccharides meaning "one") and

    complex (polysaccharides meaning "many").

    Once you understand the difference between both simple and complex carbohydrate you will know

    which offers the best quality fuel for your body.

    Simple Carbohydrates

    Come in the form of high energy, sugary snack foods which you would typically find in granola

    bars, candy, chocolate, cakes, cookies, donuts, soda also in fruits and dairy products etc. These

    types of carbohydrates are broken down instantly and used for energy by the body. This is why

    some people experience intense sugar highs after consuming foods high in sugar.

    The burst of energy is like a flash in the pan, it only lasts for a short time. Within an hour your

    energy levels have gone to an extreme high then plummets to a low. Your body then stimulates your

    appetite to consume more because it needs more energy.

    Consuming diets high in refined sugar foods plays havoc with your insulin levels. Because there is

    such a rush of sugar in one huge amount, the body must accommodate this by releasing enough

    insulin to counteract it which is why you experience intense highs and lows.

    Your body must get rid of that sugar from the blood immediately and any excess sugar that is not

    burned off as energy must be stored as fat. You have to understand that your body cannot allow any

    remaining sugar to be floating around in the blood as it effects your body's normal functions. Once

    your body becomes unable to effectively remove all sugar from the blood, you become diabetic.

    The scary fact is that most children under the age of 10 years are consuming around 70 teaspoons of

    sugar in a typical day. This is staggering; in fact it is believed that our children today will be amongsome of the first in their generation to die before their parents.

  • 8/9/2019 Quick Start to Weight Loss

    Examples of simple carbohydrates:

    Cookies

    Honey

    Soda drinks

    Chocolate

    Jam jellies Cake

    Oranges

    Plums

    Pears

    Blueberries

    Grapefruit

    Cherries

    Complex Carbohydrates

    Unlike simple carbohydrates these aren't easily broken down and absorbed into the bloodstream as

    quickly.

    Because they are complex in structure take longer to break down and are released gradually, not

    instantly into the bloodstream. This means that they provide a steady, stable source of energy and

    because they are slow releasing have a chance to be burned off rather than stored as fat.

    Examples of complex carbohydrates:

    Vegetables (cellulose)

    Whole grain breads

    Whole grain cereals

    Whole grain pasta

    Legumes

    Potatoes

    Sweet potatoes

    Brown rice

    Bagels

    Corn

    Beans

    Yams

    Peas

    Jasmine rice

    Lentils

    You should incorporate more complex carbs into your diet but that's not to say that you can't have

    the occasional treat.

    Just be aware of what you are eating and putting into your body and that any type of carb

    consumed, simple or complex, in the absence of any kind of exercise will lead to weight gain. Yourbody is efficient, if the energy you consume is not used it will be stored as fat.

  • 8/9/2019 Quick Start to Weight Loss

    11/19

    It probably pays to eat to the conditions. What is that I hear you

    ask? Just like driving to the conditions if you know that it's going

    to rain, you of course drive a little more cautiously, you drive to the

    conditions.

    In the case of eating, you eat to the conditions. If you know that

    you are out to play an intense game of tennis for the evening thenyou consume extra carbs for energy. If on the other hand you're

    going to be sitting in a movie theatre for 2 hours than you consume

    a little less as you won't be undertaking any physical activity to

    burn it off.

    Your diet should be higher in complex carbohydrates as it takes

    your body longer to break them down meaning a slow, steady

    release of energy. This is the best route to take for weight less as

    simple carbs tend to release energy too quickly into your

    bloodstream giving you massive highs and lows. Also the slow

    release means the less likely you are to contract Type II diabetes atsome point in your life. However don't forget that with any

    carbohydrate consumption must always be accompanied with

    exercise.

    5 Tips For Eating Sensibly

    Do not eliminate any of the food groups. Eat from them all. Cutting out entire food groups

    will not only deprive you of vitamins and minerals which could leave you vitamin deficient

    but also leave you with a very unbalanced and boring diet making it difficult to stick to. Read food labels and find where the hidden calories are lurking in food. Having a raised

    awareness of this will not only keep the weight off but will also empower you to make

    informed decisions about what you are putting into your body.

    Avoid high fat foods. A treat once in a while is fine and we all should get a certain amount

    of fats from our foods but be careful you don't get too much of the wrong kind. Remember

    anything you eat that isn't burned off is stored.

    Be aware of your carbohydrate intake. Make sure you get more of the complex than the

    simple variety. We all need carbs for energy we just need to monitor how much. Always opt

    for the slow release complex kind which will sustain you for longer and won't spike your

    sugar level leaving you feeling tired and lethargic.

    Drink water. You can also get fluid from coffee, tea, milk, fruits and juices but don't forget

    the best fluid your body prefers over everything is water because it can be readily absorbed

    and used; nothing has to be broken down or done to it. Water is nature's perfect elixir.

    Finding An Exercise Program

    There will only ever be 24 hours in a day and how we use those will have a huge impact on our

    weight loss success.

    I know it's not easy. With the crazy pace of our lives in the 21st century we are finding ourselves

    busier than we ever have before at any other time in history and as a result, we may find it difficult

    to incorporate exercise into our hectic schedules.

    The reality will always be that if you want to have any success with your weight loss efforts you

    have to be able to exercise and make it as part of your new lifestyle.

    But just because you will be adding exercise to your daily routine doesn't mean that you have to

    join a gym unless you really want to.

    Even just watching a little less television and opting instead to go for a brisk walk can contribute toyour weight loss. Playing with the kids and exerting yourself a little more will burn extra calories.

    Finding the balance that's right for you and the exercises that you can work into your lifestyle

    without turning your whole life upside down is the key to your success.

    If you find it difficult to materialize the time during your day

    to exercise then simply take the times that you undertake any

    kind of physical activity and amp it up just a fraction more to

    burn the extra calories.

    Use the time you play with the kids to increase activity

    levels. Instead of just playing with them why not bike ridewith them or throw a ball around at the same time? You still

    get to spend quality time with the added benefit of ditching

    extra calories.

    Get active, sign up for a sport whether it's tennis, football, baseball, swimming or aerobics this is a

    great way to lose weight and have fun at the same time while making new friends (what a great way

    to get support). Even making the time to do this once per week can contribute to your overall

    weight loss.

    If you work in an office building why not opt to take the stairs? To build up your fitness you may

    even wish to go past your own level. Not only is this a great way of increasing your fitness level butit's also fantastic for incorporating into your daily schedule so you in essence made it part of your

    new lifestyle change without having to make too great a sacrifice. Before know it, it will have

    become such an integral part of your life that you won't be able to do without it

    Try hiring exercise equipment for home. Why hire? So that you don't get bored from using the same

    piece of equipment day in and day out.

    When hiring you can advance to more challenging and sophisticated equipment the more your

    fitness increases and you're not stuck with the same thing each day.

    By hiring you can continually upgrade and take advantage of the latest cutting edge equipment. The

    beauty of exercise equipment is that you get to exercise anywhere you want and why not take the

    opportunity to do an hour long workout during your favorite show, that way you get to enjoy the

  • 8/9/2019 Quick Start to Weight Loss

    13/19

    show while doing something beneficial for yourself. Don't forget though as with anything in life

    you only get out what you put in. So if you're going to go to the trouble of hiring a piece of

    equipment, you have to use it.

    Not enough hours in the day? We can't create extra time however we can use wisely the time that

    we do have. Why not try jumpstarting your day an hour earlier by doing some exercise? Why not

    walk the dog? Why not do an hour on the treadmill or an hour of yoga or Pilates? Not only do youkick start your metabolism into action but you will continue to burn calories long throughout your

    day as a result of your early morning exercise efforts.

    Any activities that you do such as housecleaning or

    vacuuming, sweeping and mowing the lawn, why not put

    more effort and intensity into it? This can make an impact

    on your weight loss efforts just by doing a little more.

    Any form of exercise is good and the more you do it and

    increase the intensity level the more fat you will burn. Aim

    to start with three times per week then increase from thereand you will notice the results. Not only will your energy

    levels increase but you will notice your body changing and

    your clothes fitting looser on your body.

    Remember that exercise is not just for the here and now; it's a lifestyle change for life. Beyond just

    wanting to look good you are prolonging your life in the process and the benefits far outweigh

    sacrificing a little down time. Your health and life are worth it.

    5 Tips to get the most out of your exercise

    Always, and I mean always consult your physician before starting any weight loss plan or

    exercise. Don't jump to the physically demanding exercises but work your way to them.

    Find something you enjoy. Chances are you'll stick with it longer as it won't feel like

    exercise. You could find a healthy activity to do with your friend while using it as catch up

    time.

    Use your time wisely. Find activities that will benefit you more than sitting reading a

    magazine or watching television. Or you can do an hour on the treadmill while reading or

    watching the TV.

    Set your goals, re-evaluate them each month and increase the intensity when your fitness

    level improves.

    Make exercise a priority. Always remember this is a lifestyle choice, where you need to

    undo all the negative habits you formed throughout your life and counteract them with

    positive ones. Exercise is definitely on top of that list.

    Do You Need Help, Want To Accelerate Your Weight Loss OrNeed A Plan To Do It?

    I've gathered my recommendations for the best weight loss products: pills, supplements, programs

    and books.

    All of these products are high quality, backed by experts and thousands of users all across the

    world. You can of course look for other products but I'd be careful as there are a lot of weight loss

    scams on the internet and I don't want you to get burned.

    In any case do not look for miraculous solutions as there are none you need to put effort into

    your weight loss if you want it to be healthy and long term.

    Weight Loss Pills

    Weight loss pills can help you with your new weight loss plan which should always include exercise

    and better diet. Note that over time your body may get used to the pills being in your system and not

    respond to them as well, meaning you will not be losing as much weight. Therefore it is vital that

    you know how to maintain your weight loss and take a break from the pills for a while before

    starting them again to see continued results.

    Most of the below products have their own plans and support to help you with your weight loss

    plan. Before taking weight loss pills keep in mind you need to use them wisely and safely. Always

    read the instructions that come with them and consult your doctor when needed.

    I've written about the four main pill types and the brands I recommend.

    Appetite Suppressant Unique HoodiaAppetite suppressant can help you with cutting down on snacks and too large meal portions. It

    makes your brain believe your body is full, even when it's not.

    Note: your body interprets these signals also for thirst, so always drink enough water when

    consuming appetite suppressants!

    Hoodia Gordonii is one of the most popular appetite

    suppressants and also one of the most effective. The pills arederived from an all natural flowering plant found in South

    Africa. Its original use was by tribesmen who discovered that

    it helped suppress feelings of both thirst and hunger during

    long journeys. When it's consumed and broken down, it

    releases a molecule called P57. P57 is the active ingredient

    which tells the brain that you are full.

    By suppressing hunger, individuals on Hoodia Gordonii will consume less calories in a day. In

    trials, it's been found that individuals will eat up to 2000 calories less each day. This can lead to a

    loss of fat, rather than just excess water.

    I've found a well respected supplier of Hoodia Gordonii, UniqueHoodia based in the United

    Kingdom. They have a great success rate and their statistics say it all 92% of customers re-order.

    The prices start at 0,64 AUD per pill and go to 0,36 AUD per pill for larger orders. It's one of the

    most inexpensive (but still effective) pills on the market.

    They also offer a 6 Months Money Back Guarantee if you take the pills at least 90 days. You can

    read the testimonials and success stories on the official website and you can order it here. I've also

    written a review which you can find on my website.

    Fat Binder ProactolFat binders are usually pills which have lipophillic components which bind and gather fat

    molecules.

    How Do Fat Binders Work?

    After eating a high-fat meal, like for example a double cheese burger, you take a fat binder pill. The

    fat binder will bind the fat that floats at the top of your stomach after you ingested the meal. With

    this binding process, the fat molecules will become too big to be absorbed back into your body. This

    way the excess fat will pass through the body completely naturally.

    Proactol is also a United Kingdom based companywhich developed a completely organic and natural fat

    binder. The active ingredient is an extract from Optuntia

    Ficus Indica, a cactus usually found in India and better

    known as the Prickly Pear.

    Proactol has been a subject in several independent

    clinical trials and it's been documented to be effective

    and safe. The price starts at 0,75 AUD per pill and goes

    down to 0,57 AUD per pill for larger orders. They offer

    a 6 Months Money Back Guarantee if you take the pills

    at least 120 days.

    You can read the testimonials on their website and order it here, or read the review on my website.

    Fat Burner Phen375Fat burners help you burn fat by giving you more energy which can help you increase your workout

    performance, they trigger hormones which speed up your metabolism and they're also appetite

    suppressants which means you'll crave food less.

    Phen375 (phentemine) is a weight loss pill which is made up of a

    combination of five major ingredients. While the name is similarto the harmful and previously marketed phentermine, Phen375 is a

    safe alternative with a different formulation. Phen375 targets fat in

    the body and stops new fats from being stored. This is considered

    a highly successful product, with many years of proven

    effectiveness.

    Phen375 origins from Costa Rica but the company has distribution

    centers all over the globe. You can also buy it from their official

    website where you can also find the customers' success stories.

    The prices start at 2,60 AUD per pill making it one of the most expensive pills on the market. You

    can also read the review on my website.

    Supplements Pure Acai BerryThe main job of supplements is to help you work out, give you more energy with vitamins and

    antioxidants and increase your metabolism. They are usually less aggressive than for example fat

    burners.

    While acai berries on it's own won't burn your fat like

    Phentemine or other strong weight loss pills, they areone of the best supplements to have when you're losing

    weight. Acai berries will increase your metabolism, give

    you more of the good fats (healthy unsaturated fats,

    Omega 3, Omega 6 and Omega 9), a large array of

    vitamins (A, C, B1, B2, B3, E, potassium, calcium,

    magnesium, copper, zinc) and antioxidants.

    In short all this means you will burn more calories while

    having more energy.

    Weight Loss Programs

    Weight loss programs can be online, meeting-based or the combination of both. The main advantage

    of these programs is that you have social support of your peers and that the meetings help you with

    motivation and goal monitoring.

    Australia has three well known and quality weight loss programs.

    Weight Watchers ClubWeight Watchers Club is probably the oldest weight loss club in

    the world, dating back to the 1960's. Today it's one of the most

    known clubs for weight loss with local meetings all across the

    globe, including Australia.

    Weight Watchers is a point system based program where all foods

    are assigned point values and these numbers are tracked by the individual until they use up all their

    points for a single day. Rather than restricting foods, weight watchers allows its members to choose

    to eat what they wish and what they crave, while being aware that one food could take away from

    others.

    While the weight loss program in the past always included regular weekly meetings, it has adapted

    with technology and members can now choose from meeting and online or online-only

    memberships.

    The Biggest Loser ClubThe Biggest Loser club is a diet program which is based on the principles in the popular tv show,

    where contestants are put into a boot camp to lose weight. Unlike the television show, individualswho subscribe to the diet don't receive personal training, and the sort of physical restrictions to food

    that the television contestants do. Because of this, subscribers have to exercise their own self-

    control to be successful with the program.

    The diet plan includes meals which are sent out each day, which

    describe portion size and servings, along with access to a database of

    hundreds of other recipes and meal plans that individuals can choose

    from. Once registered, subscribers will also receive 3 books to help

    keep on track and to learn more about what they are eating, how to stayon track, and how to build a healthier lifestyle.

    There is also an on-line community of others who are on the same diet plan, where individuals can

    connect to participate in discussions, forums, and share setbacks and successes they've had. This

    style of social support has often shown improved results because individuals don't feel like they are

    going it alone; they get to know others out there who are dealing with the exact same problems and

    challenges.

    Mass Attack ProgramMass Attack takes a new approach to weight loss for women. It is a program which seriously

    considers each woman's unique metabolism, hormones and genetics and how they effect one

    another. Mass Attack lets its subscribers know that as women age and hormones change, simple

    dieting with exercise may not lead to healthy, sustained weight loss. This program assesses the

    hormone levels and history of each client and diagnoses any problems they might have, and

    provides an all natural, healthy solution to shedding weight and treating the health problem.

    The program is guaranteed to work and lead to weight loss, and promises to kick start clients'

    metabolisms, and restore good health. The founder of the program went through natural hormonal

    changes that many women go through after giving birth, and found that the usual, eat less-move

    more theory to weight-loss and maintenance was just not working anymore. She is a naturopath and

    herbalist and began researching how aging, hormones and metabolism change and effect women's

    bodies.

    The assessment is free and can take as little as 20 minutes;

    individuals can also take the hormonal test on-line for free.

    These tests and assessments are what is used to find out

    why diets have not worked in the past and what might be

    missing in the diet program.

    Weight Loss Books

    You can find many books on dieting on the internet and in your local bookstores. Some talk only

    about foods, some only about exercises but most talk about both as they're equally important. I've

    concentrated only on eBooks (downloadable PDF books) as they are most up-to-date and the easiest

    to buy.

    Weight loss books will help those who know how to motivate themselves but need a blueprint or a

    weight loss plan to help them. Not everybody is a fitness coach, right?

    Fat Burning FurnaceAuthor Rob Poulos created a step by step guide for both men and women to help lose weight

    effectively. The program that Rob Poulos is promoting teaches individuals how to exercise and eat

    so that lean muscle mass increases, and metabolic rate increases. By increasing the resting

    metabolic rate, the body will naturally burn more calories each day. The majority of the first section

    covers exercises that the reader should begin, types, form, duration, length, etc. The exercises are

    not cardiovascular style, like running or jogging or biking, but rather exercises which, done 3 timesper week will increase lean muscle mass. The workouts are short, and done to fatigue, meaning

    done slowly, only a single set, and until exhaustion sets in and they cannot be done anymore. They

    are also focused on being full body workouts each time.

    There are around 35 pages that cover nutrition. The nutrition section

    is more of a guide than a plan. It discusses what types of foods to look

    for and which to avoid, but also gives an explanation behind it. There

    are lots of online tools that can be used as well. There are recipes, and

    e-mail contact with the author - depending on which version you buy

    - for a period of time after you make the purchase. Poulos explains

    why he disagrees with other types of diets, fat diets, and why typicaldiets end with individuals gaining weight back.

    Fit Yummy MummyThis book looks to help moms- new and seasoned- get their pre-birth body's back . Author Holly

    Rigsby is also a personal trainer and athletic therapist. She wrote this book after herself giving birth

    and having to bring her body back to what it once was. She has created a program based on both the

    right diet and the right exercises that most effectively and efficiently returns a new mothers body to

    its best shape.

    This is a 110 page guide to losing weight which is usually fat accumulation during

    and after pregnancy. The guide covers a 16 week plan, and offers a 4 diet plans

    which are cycled 4 times (to last the full 16 weeks). The unique part of this guide is

    that it begins by offering readers an understanding of what they can expect, how

    they might feel, how to maintain motivation, etc. Many plans never go into how

    the weight loss plans will generally make them feel, or discuss the ups and downs

    of it.

    The rest of the book discusses workouts, contains supplementary guides, supplementary mp3's, and

    video's, all to help with the weight loss system.

    Eat Stop EatAuthor Brad Pilon offers a new way of looking at diets, with his eBook, Eat Stop

    Eat with intermittent fasting. While this has always been discouraged because it is

    perceived as being unhealthy, he takes a good portion of the book to go through

    why he is qualified and educated well enough to have found supportive evidence

    for this style of dieting. The idea is that fasting the correct, healthy way, and eating

    the right foods will help lower calorie intake without the daunting task of actually

    having to count calories.

    His arguments and justifications are backed by proper scientific research studies, three of which are

    provides a little more information, and goes into the concepts with more detail.

    You can read more about this eBook in my review or buy the book directly on the official website.

    Conclusion

    As with everything in life, the hardest part is getting started and the second hardest, keeping on

    track. Create a plan, set your goals, write down your improvements and don't give up. Weight loss is

    not an overnight success so don't give up after a month or two.

    It doesn't matter how you do it, with the help of pills, books or programs, as long as you'll feel good

    in your body again.
