These days it’s hard not to meet someone who is either suffering from heart disease, has had a heart attack or has been told they are at risk for heart disease. It’s just about as common as meeting someone with brown hair. Unfortunately, the media and even many well-meaning doctors are completely misinformed on how to tackle this growing epidemic. It’s the number one killer in the US and plaguing many other countries as well.

What are we to do?

The best plot of attack is to combat the risk factors the best we can.

Use the following 5 tips to get you started on a heart healthy plot:

1. Drop the smokes. Yes, smoking has been shown to be one of the largest risk factors in heart disease, mainly because of all the toxic chemicals added to cigarettes (not that I’m recommending tobacco or anything.)

2. Walk, walk, walk. If finding time for a structured exercise program is just too much of a challenge right now, just start by walking. I have known many people who have strengthened their heart and reversed severe conditions by getting outside and walking. If you can, find a scenic route. There’s nothing more calming than the outdoors. (I highly recommend whistling and singing while you walk. It makes for pleased thoughts.)

3. Cool down. By this I mean, don’t stress about the stuff you don’t have to. This is really a very amusing statement coming from me who used to stress about everything! Deadlines, laundry, work, family… you name it, I stressed about. Not until I realized that this would kill me no matter how healthy my food was did I drop the stress and pick up the laughter. Right now as I write this newsletter, I’ve got more things that need to get done today than are humanly possible. My reaction “Haha..better place my Superwoman shirt on”

4. Do not and I repeat, do not go on a low-stout diet. Your heart condition may get worse in your attempts. Drop the terrible fats (like hydrogenated oil and the nasty oil in French fries and donuts) and start eating more healthy fats like coconut oil, olive oil, salmon, walnuts and whole organic eggs.

5. Do not be worried to eat saturated stout. If read “The Truth About Saturated Stout” in The Diet Solution Program you know that eating saturated fats is not what is causing people to get heart disease. It is processed foods, sugars and an overabundance of refined carbohydrates that is making this country so sick

First, diets don’t work, PERIOD. Any plan that’s highly
restrictive, structured or specialized is unrealistic for
long-term maintenance. Plus, any diet that requires you to
totally eliminate foods from your diet is a recipe for
disaster. Personally, I don’t care for chocolate. However,
when someone tells me I can’t or shouldn’t have chocolate,
it’s amazing how I suddenly crave it! When someone takes
away a choice, the average person wants that choice back -
even if it didn’t mean much when the option was available
in the first place. Additionally, most diets don’t work
for everyone, and you won’t know if a diet works unless
you try it. Trying many diets without seeing results can
lead to “dieter’s frustration” which, in many cases, just
packs on more pounds.

The second point that most diets fail to mention is that
you must eat frequently to regulate your metabolism and
burn fat. Extreme low-calorie and tiny “portion-control”
diets put your body into starvation mode, which means your
body clings to food because it doesn’t know when its next
meal is coming. This explains how you can actually eat
less food and consume less calories, and still not lose
any weight. If your diet makes you feel hungry all the
time, that’s definitely not a good sign. The best nutrition
plans require that you eat five or six small meals per day,
no more than four hours apart.

Finally, diets are lying to you when they say you must be
“patient” and expect to lose only one to two pounds per
week. For someone like me, who had fifty pounds to lose,
this information was devastating. If you have a lot of
weight to lose (50 pounds or more), it is not unhealthy to
drop three to five pounds per week, particularly in the
beginning. In my experience, the greatest motivator is
early results. When you can see the fruit of your efforts,
you are much more likely to press onward when the going
gets tough. Early results can help you maintain focus and
keep your determination alive. An excellent all-natural
supplement such as NiteTrim can jump-start your results
from other weight-loss efforts. Supplements such as
NiteTrim can also help you break through the dreaded
“plateaus.”

Once I discovered these three secrets, I realized that the
best way to get in shape and maintain a healthy body is
through proper nutrition, regular exercise and appropriate
supplementation. By far the best program I’ve found is a
combination of Bill Phillips’ Body for LIFE and NiteTrim.
Bill Phillips has truly made nutrition simple, effective, and
easy to follow. Additionally, the Body for LIFE book
provides step-by-step exercise and fitness guidance
suitable for anyone, regardless of experience or current
fitness level. NiteTrim is an all-natural supplement that
effectively burns fat, and the company offers a 30-day
free trial supply, as well as a money-back guarantee.

I desperately needed to lose weight for my wedding. I have lost 13 pounds on the first week, and 10 pounds on the second. This is quite a small time for losing weight, and not very healthy, I know. But, this quick weight loss success was a kick-start for my weight loss journey, and it motivated me to keep losing weight, following natural and healthy methods later. I am going to share every single step I followed on the second week, that helped me to lose 10 pounds in 7 days.

Please keep in mind that extremely quick weight loss is never healthy.

Here are the steps I followed after the first 7 days, to lose 10 pounds in a week:

1) First, I had a day of detox – to cleanse my body and lose weight even quicker. I prepared a drink of lemon juice, ginger and honey mixed with water, and drank this detox drink during the day. Whenever hungry, I just drank it. I felt excellent, as I normally do, no cramps, no lack of energy, nothing. This was not hard at all, and I am sure it boosted my weight loss results. I know some people do the whole week of detox, but this is not for me.

2) I limited the amounts of foods, because I really needed to lose weight so quick. I had plenty of vegetables, lean meat, fish, eggs, and some fruits (mostly apples and oranges). My new rule of eating was this: half of the plate should be veggies (just tried to avoid too much potato), ¼ of the plate – white meat or fish, and the rest can be fruit (no bananas because they are too sweet and starchy). I know that eating less is not always an option for a long lasting weight loss. But it surely is an option for quick weight loss, and that`s what my goal was. An simpler way to reduce the amount of food is to get a smaller plate. But, eating less was pretty hard, I admit. But I reached my goal, and I am so pleased now.

3) I added 2 apples an one can of black beans to my daily diet. I had the beans as my main meal, or split them into 2 smaller meals and had with veggies on the side. This is a trick that no diets tell. And it works wonders, because 35 grams of fiber in a daily diet truly supercharges weight loss. These fibers clean the digestive tract and improve digestion.

4) I started to eat breakfast and stopped eating at night. 7 PM was the latest time of the day when I had my dinner. Breakfast boosted my metabolism and helped me to burn calories quicker, although I never believed it could be so vital for weight loss. It kept me energized as well. I got at least 10 glasses of water during the day, and I still do – water cleanses the body, increases metabolic rate, and does not let you feel hungry.

5) I distributed my usual calorie intake during the day. I started to eat 5 times a day, having smaller meals. This way I never had to go hungry.

6) I limited stout, sweet and not so healthy food, and whenever I felt like I need to eat something unhealthy, I went those meals to the first part of the day. Because metabolism is higher in the morning compared to the evening, and this let me eat a donut or ice cream once every few days.

7) Instead of drinking juice, I had a fresh fruit every time. Juice is too sweet for weight loss, if you`re thirsty, get some water or unsweetened green tea.

I kept myself motivated and busy all the time. I know that when you`re busy, you have no time to go to the kitchen. This works wonders.

This plot might sound too simple to lose 10 pounds in a week – but follow this plot religiously, and you will see real results.

The statement, “if this one thing were handled, then everything else would fall into place” is an “If Then” statement and gets people into distress. Do you like what you see? 6) Place together a plot of action for the achievement of your outcome. If you don’t work out ways to overcome your obstacles perhaps through discussion and compromise with your husband, or habit breaking exercises for your ice cream habit, there’s bound to be a problem. There are always options. If I could get past this there is no doubt that I will reach my goal.

In NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) a excellent starting point is the exercise called Establishing a Well Formed Outcome. NLP: How to Make a Well Formed Outcome & Get What You Want Here are the steps to making a well formed outcome: 1) State what you want (not what you do not want). I had an dreadful day. 4) Check whether anyone else is involved and any potential obstacles that may come up regarding others. You must leave room for occasional deviations.

All I will say is that 90% of my food today consisted of sugar! I really, really need some help getting past these cravings. You’ve said if only you didn’t crave sugar, then you could lose weight, but is that really right for you? Question yourself these questions: Would you eat differently, and if so how? Would you act differently, and if so how? What else would change, and what would stay the same? What would you lose? What would you gain? Until you know what you want, know you can achieve it, and know what else will change (i. I am no doubt a sugar addict. Getting a handle on your cravings is not an all-or-nothing proposition. ” If you see a small of yourself in this message, you’re not alone.

It’s better to look at what you want from every angle, then place together a plot you know can and will work. If you believe only one thing stands in your way of losing weight, consider this: What if that one thing (an addiction to sugar for instance) were gone? Do you really believe, “If I could get past this, there is no doubt that I will reach my goal,” or is it an simple excuse to stay stuck? If I told you I could show you a way to stop craving sugar, would you want me to show you how? Reckon about that for a moment. While it may seem like a lot of effort simply to choose what you really want, going through these steps at the beginning helps you find potential obstacles which previously stopped you from moving forward. “Achieving a Well Formed Outcome” is one of the sessions in the Ending Emotional Eating 8-Week Workshop. 5) Picture yourself “as if” you’ve obtained what you say you want and see if that picture fits.

That’s an obstacle. You didn’t reckon it through. I won’t even tell you what I ate today because it is just so unbelievable. If you did join a gym, you’d end up not going and then you’d reckon you’d failed, yet it was the plot that failed, not you. Later, when you do have transportation, you can rethink the plot and perhaps join a gym then.

A client wrote, “Help me! I thought I was finally getting a handle on my weight issue but the sugar is killing me. A strong belief that one single thing such as, “eating sugar is my problem,” sets you up to fail, especially if you really like eating sugary foods. For example, if you choose you want to join a gym and start exercising every day but you’ve forgotten you don’t even own a car and just lost your job, that exercise plot might not work out right now. Just saying you’re not going to do something any mroe rarely works.

Close your eyes and really reckon it through. 3) What resources do you have and what do you need (time, money, gear, clothes, equipment, coaching, whatever). If you’ve got a habit of watching your favorite TV show with a bowl of ice cream, then breaking that habit is another obstacle. They want a fairy godmother to make it all better. Then when you know what you want, you’ll also know you can make it happen and start by taking that first step toward making it a reality.

It’s not the occasional side trip that causes weight distress, it’s the road we usually travel. You can also find more information on this well loved and well known NLP process by searching for “NLP Well Formed Outcome” in your favorite search engine. “I want to weigh 135 pounds. Reckon of everyone involved in your day-to-day life. For instance, you may want to stop eating anything after 7 PM yet your husband doesn’t come home from work until 8 and he wants you to join him for dinner.

A better plot in this instance may be doing exercises at home, or within walking distance (or simply walking for exercise). They believe if it were only for that one thing, then they could reach their weight loss goals. Instead determine what might stand in the way of achieving your goals, find a way around them, and you’re much more likely to really achieve those goals once and for all. How your life may be different), you can’t learn any obstacles that first must be considered. “Well formed” means it meets all criteria of a well thought-out end result.

” 2) Determine whether you can achieve it (do you believe it is possible?). Many describe themselves as sugar addicts.
