What you can do about belly fat

Abdominal obesity is the other name of belly fat. It makes people feel embarrassed and totally unfit, since belly fat alters the overall health condition. The internal organs in the abdominal cavity will most certainly be wrapped in fat too, which seriously enhances the risk of chronic disease. There are many causes and explanations for the appearance of belly fat, but the plain reality is that you get more energy from food than you consume.

Belly fat is commonly associated with a sedentary lifestyle, overeating and several chronic diseases. It could also develop as an adverse reaction to the administration of certain prescription drugs. Cardiovascular disease, high cholesterol, diabetes and hypertension have been closely connected with belly fat. A medical exam should put you on guard about the health risks associated with abdominal fat.

The measures taken against belly fat vary depending on the severity of the condition. Your waist won’t increase in size any further if you take up physical exercises and create a balanced diet. It is also easier to lose weight when you haven’t put on too many pounds. In the more advanced obesity stages, the effort put on the body is higher, and the weight loss process increases in complexity and difficulty in more serious cases.

Try to understand what you do wrong that causes belly fat. It’s time you were totally honest with yourself, and decide what you want to do with your body and your life. Therefore, my recommendation is to carefully analyze your lifestyle, your meals, the food you have, with likes and dislikes, the sleeping pattern, the level of physical activity performed daily and so much more. The use of certain medication, the overall health condition, your sexual activity and age will influence your success.

For some people, performing such a self-analysis proves impossible, which is why you should consider your options. Yet, do not neglect the importance of getting professional or expert guidance so as to put things on the right course. Your general physician can offer all the necessary recommendations for you to start burning belly fat gradually and progressively.

May you maintain an excellent shape and great health!

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle Review By Tom Venuto

So why is Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle one of the best selling ebooks in the history of the internet, with many thousands of satisfied and now slimmer users in 141 countries worldwide?

Burn The Fat, Feed The Muscle is the #1 best selling diet and fitness ebook in the history of the Internet. In fact, it is one of the all time best sellers in any e-book category since the internet began…. And here is the reason why…

It’s because thousands of women and men of every age are burning off BODY FAT – not muscle or water weight – and they’re doing it naturally, without supplements, pills or “magic potions,” simply by using the proven, scientifically-accurate and common-sense advice found inside this amazing diet and fitness guidebook.

Tom Venuto, a respected fat loss expert, natural bodybuilder, and personal trainer, has not just pumped out yet another “diet program” into an already over-saturated market. Tom’s Burn the Fat can be more accurately described as a “Fat Loss Bible.” It is quite simply one of the most complete, detailed, and precise guides to fat loss you will ever read. What makes it so much different than other weight loss publications on the market?

Well first of all, it’s not a “weight loss” program, it’s a “fat” loss program. It may seem unbelievable, but by the end of the first 3 chapters, you’ll have no doubt that pursuing “weight loss” is not only the wrong goal, but the reason for failing to lose and maintain your weight in the first place. This book will teach you why it isn’t “weight” you want to lose, it’s fat. Weight also contains other, very valuable substances like muscle and water..

Secondly, what makes Burn The Fat different is the amount of attention that is paid to each and every element of successful, healthy, permanent fat loss. Burn The Fat not only thoroughly dispels the lies, myths and fallacies surrounding a very confusing subject, it is simply the most detailed book about fat loss ever written. By reading Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle, (or better yet, “studying it”), you will learn more about fat loss than you could from an entire semester of nutrition classes or from an entire shelf of maintstream diet publications at your local bookstore.

You might be wondering, Is this diet low carb? A protein rich diet? A diet high in fat? what type of program IS it???” The reality is that Burn the Fat isn’t a high protein or low carb diet. That’s because with the information in this book, you will be able to easily determine your own ideal protein, carbs and fats ratio. You will be able to analyze your body type (are you an endomorph, ectomorph, or mesomorph?), you will determine your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate, or the amount of “maintenance” calories your body requires every day), and this way you will find out if you are carb tolerant or not.

This personalized approach makes perfect sense because each of us is a unique individual and no two people are exactly alike in terms of body physiology and personal goals.

Certainly one of the most influencial chapters in this book is this one, “How To Set Powerful, Compelling Goals That Will Propel You Forward and Charge You Up with Unstoppable Motivation”.” In this chapter, you will learn what is probably the ultimate secret to burning fat and getting in shape… and it not about eating plans, supplements or exercise routines. In this chapter you’ll also find a suberb quotation from the legendary Green Bay Packers coach, Vince Lombardi…

“The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary. The cost of success is lots of hard work.” That is a great way of showing the “no quick fix” attitude of this ebook. In the following chapters of this book you’ll be taught about the mechanical aspects of fat loss. You’ll also learn simply how to incorporate these things into your daily diet and exercise routine.

If there is any drawback to the Burn The Fat ebook, it’s that it contains so much information, that some readers may find it a bit overwhelming. Those who are looking for a “cliff’s Note’s” quick start type of fat loss program, might be a bit intimated at first. The good part however, is that even these types of readers can feel confident and assured that it will be worth the effort because this will literally be the last book they ever have to buy on the subject.

Who stands to gain the most from Burn the Fat?

In the broadest sense, anyone and everyone who needs to lose weight will benefit from Burn The Fat. Anyone from average Joe to fitness expert will love this book, especially if they are motivated. Although it was written by a bodybuilder, this book is certainly NOT just for bodybuilders.

You will find no “30 lbs. in 30 days” miracles at work here. It’s all about intelligent eating choices, planning, hard work and lifestyle change. As Burn The Fat author Tom Venuto says,…

“Burn the Fat is a simple book to follow, not easy.”

In terms of graphic design, Burn the Fat is a clean and professionally formatted PDF e-book. It’s a little on the plain side, being just text, but that makes it ideal for printing and reading in the comfort of a favorite chair. Because there is so much content, you’ll want to use a good printer and have plenty of paper available.

In the beginning people thought that $39 was quite a lot of money to pay for the Burn the Fat ebook. However, after they saw the amount of information contained within Burn The Fat’s 340 pages, along with the special bonus ebooks and reports that come with it, they said it was not only worth the $39, but many times that amount.

As with any how-to publication, you’re not really paying for the materials used to compile the document, but for what the information can do for you, and clearly, this publication has changed many lives and the hundreds of testimonials and success stories found on the Burn The Fat website are proof of that (I recommend you take a look at that “testimonials” page on the Burn The Fat website because some of the before and after transformations are simply incredible – as well as inspiring).

The Bottom line?

Anyone looking for a quick fix solution to fat loss, anyone looking to be told fairy-tales, and anyone looking for a “magic bullet” offered by the likes of body wraps, fat burning pills, diet shakes, or “fat-burning” creams and gels might be best advised to steer clear of Burn the Fat.

On the other hand, anyone tired of “spinning their wheels” going nowhere, who wants the truth about fat loss and who is ready and willing to put in the hard work and discipline and make the lifestyle changes necessary to get a fat free body, will find Burn The fat to be one of the best investments they ever made in their lives.

Weight Loss Hypnosis: Does it Really Work?

Many who are struggling with their weight have turned to hypnosis for weight loss.

During hypnosis, behavioral changes can be suggested to the subconscious, where our desires for cravings and reaction to emotions originate.

While hypnosis was originally intended as a tool to be used beside cognitive behavioral therapy, it was quickly realized that it could be used to modify a wide variety of behavior issues, including smoking and weight loss.

While there are not enough scientific studies to prove or disprove the effectiveness of hypnosis, the general consensus is that it can help with overeating issues to some degree.

It still remains, however, that this type of behavioral therapy will work on three main areas of our lives that you can work on without the aid of hypnotherapy.

Eating Better. Going “on a diet” may work in the short term, but over the long run, it is an overall lifestyle change when it comes to the food you eat that will make all the difference.

Small changes made over time can add up to weight loss that is easier to sustain. The key is to making your changes permanent and attainable.

Completely eliminating any one food group is a hard change to maintain, but making the switch from whole milk to 1% or less, for example, is more likely to have lasting results.

Cutting back on processed foods, sugars and syrups (including soda) and alcohol will also show big results on your scale. Hypnosis and subliminal messaging might help to make your mind more receptive to these long-term and incremental changes.

Moving More. Like many people, you might like the word “exercise.” The good news is that you only need to think of it as moving more. During your day, there are many opportunities to move. When a commercial comes on, you can walk in place or jog in circles around your living room. Or do sit ups, push ups, or leg lifts.

While on the phone you can do the same, and when out in public you can park farther from the store and take the stairs instead of the elevator whenever possible.

Take a small walk after dinner or during your lunch break. Getting outside and getting moving during these times will signal an earlier end to your mealtime and they’ll help you burn calories.

Again, you can try subliminal weight loss or hypnotherapy methods to make your mind more receptive to these small changes, which are crucial to lasting success.

Stressing Less. Let’s face it: stress is a huge hurdle in the battle of the bulge. For those of us who are triggered to eat by emotions, daily personal stress can wreak havoc.

Even if you don’t eat in response to emotions, stress can affect your diet by altering how well your metabolism works. If you are sleeping less, moping around more or running ragged and not eating at all, then you are more likely to find yourself tired, bloated and overweight. But working from a place of mental stillness, through a hypnosis technique, can help you to calm your mind and get a handle on your stress.

Simple changes made now and over the course of the year will add up to pounds lost and a lifetime of being healthier. Hypnosis for weight loss may help strengthen your will power and even help you to modify some of your behaviors. The only way to tell whether weight loss hypnosis will work for you is to give it a try.

Eat Sexy, Lose Weight – Foods That Will Make You Wiggle and Giggle

Most people on diets, especially fad diets, fasting, single food diets and weight loss pill diets are deficient in the vitamins and minerals that we need for optimal performance – and I’m not just talking about in the bedroom. If you have problems losing weight – or keeping the weight off – then you should dive into this tantalizing gem from Ms. Lee.

Weight Loss 101 – All About Healthy Weight Loss

It is amazing to see the amount of people who think that the best way to slim down is by going hungry and though it might yield some result immediately, but no physician in his right mind would advocate such a desperate measure. They insist that only healthy weight loss diets are advocated, given the fact that excesses tend to leave the body weaker and almost defenseless when facing illness. The best healthy weight loss diets would recommend two things: keep the calories limited to the exact requirement and supply the body with necessary nutrients during dieting.

Usually people ignore the importance of a good nights’ rest for the upkeep of good health, which is as essential as burning those excess calories. Sometimes the women’s’ periodicals are the real culprit in promoting these fad diet plans, which are not backed by any scientific data or trials and they somehow convince the readers that these are supposed healthy weight loss plans.

For example: eat only boiled vegetables with chicken, fruit and salads, and while the basic starting idea is not incorrect, a truly healthy weight loss diet needs to include other nutrients as well, that are not present in boiled vegetables for instance. The vast majority of individuals eating a diet that is made up of these food groups may lose weight and feel a little better but will finally fail in their healthy weight loss as they become incredibly bored by the same food each day.

If you really want to stick to your healthy weight loss diet, remember not to have high calorific foods and stick your daily exercise schedule, even if it is 30 minutes of walking each day and get a good nights’ rest. Sleep is an astonishingly serious part of our lives – something which medicine is only just starting to understand but it is common amongst individuals with weight problems to eat during the night, often not remembering they have done it.

In case you too have the habit of gorging yourself at night, remember, you are completely negating all your efforts of following a healthy weight loss diet plan with the right kind of exercise to burn those calories. You can see the results of a healthy weight loss program right away, as you get more energetic and feel better in terms of health as you sleep well each night, and these health improvements mean that you are not likely to fall sick a great deal.

The other serious aspect for following a healthy weight loss diet is that you start to feel good about the way you look and feel: harboring bad feelings about self can do more harm than anything else. You can’t ask miracles from your body because it answers in a particular cycle to physical input and obese individuals who desperately want to lose weight often have the tendency to work themselves out in tiresome physical exercises.

To make any healthy weight loss program works for you, you have to back it with regular physical workouts, which is where overweight individuals tend to overdo, but remember start slowly with regular jogging or swimming and when your energy levels have increased, join a gym. It can take some time to get fit again but it can be done effectively if you do not try to achieve this too quickly.
