By Coach Todd Weight loss and maintaining a healthy weight is crucial to your overall health, but finding a good plan can sometimes be difficult. Avoid crash diets, diets that force you to eliminate entire food groups and diets that only allow you to eat one type of food. Presented here are a few tips that your doctor and you can both use to form a healthy weight loss plan. Never over-diet. Work your calorie intake slowly each day in order to prepare your body and produce the best results. A good technique is to lower your caloric intake by 500 calories. Self-hypnosis is a potentially useful weight-loss tool. Although this sounds strange to some people, hypnosis can be effective in helping you make changes and reach your goals. A healthier food alternative is to discard the egg yolk and just eat the whites. As nutrient rich as the yolk is, it also contains cholesterol and fat which will not coincide with your diet. Egg whites are an awesome source of quality protein. Try to eat wit...

Well, if you´re a busy mom like me and you´ve got your eye on the "fat loss" ball, you may be wondering just  how  you´re supposed to find time to keep all those other balls up in the air as well. You know the ones I´m talking about: Health, Relationship, Super Mom, and Career. So, how do you do it? I get asked that question a lot. After all, I´ve got 3 kids (plus a husband, a dog and a cat!), run my own business from home and still manage to find time to eat healthy, workout regularly and spend time with my husband of nearly 20 years. Of course, there are people out there busier than I am but that doesn´t keep those age-old questions from popping up: How do you do it? And, more importantly,  how can I? The answer is simple, really: by making habits and creating routines. That said, I´ve found it´s the actual "doing" part that people run into trouble with! But if you can manage to create a routine, by doing something over and over again, it will slowly bec...

Hundreds of supplements are available in the market. Why not use them? I am going to give you the answer. Why use an artificial supplement when nature provides us with healthy supplements? In America,we assume all health products have been tested. That's not true about supplements. Most supplements are not tested.

A few years ago, a rather overweight lady came up to me after I finished a hypnosis demonstration. With arms folded, she said to me, "I want you to hypnotize me to lose weight but I don't want to change the way I eat and I don't want to exercise." I said to her, "Lady, I can hypnotize you to think you're thin, but the only way to lose weight is through better diet and exercise." I have been practicing hypnotherapy for over 15 years and have attended several schools of hypnosis. Though I've learned from each school and from countless lectures and therapy sessions, I can tell you that in general, a therapist practicing hypnosis will usually use a particular method of hypnosis that they are comfortable with and discount the others either because they are not aware of other methods or they were 'taught' that one method is best. In reality, there are many ways to hypnotize for successful weight loss and it's best for a hypnotist or hypnoth...

There is a lot of interest these days in yoga for weight loss, and in this article I will give a broad view of the various ways in which yoga can be beneficial in a weight loss program. First of all, many people know yoga as exotic stretches that are performed by fit and beautiful women you look healthy and happy. So while there is a public image of what yoga is, and what it can do, there is also a whole system of yoga that often goes un-noticed. I mention this because if yoga is to be used in a weight loss program, it is helpful to understand the many facets of it that can be useful for losing weight. In most weight loss programs there is an emphasis on diet and exercise. After all, what we eat, and how we move our bodies, are the physical foundations of good health and trim figures. However, there are other factors that are important in considering as one attempts to lose those excess rolls. (Were those dinner rolls or cinnamon rolls?) Anyway, besides the physical factors of fo...

The first and foremost item that needs to be addressed when discussing increasing your metabolism is to define it. Your metabolism is the rate at which your body burns calories, and therefore your basal metabolic rate is the rate at which your body burns calories at rest. But what does your body burn calories on? We are warm blooded, and to keep our bodies at 98.6 degrees takes a lot of calories, in fact the vast majority of the food you put into your body goes to just that, keeping us warm. The rest of your calories go towards keeping our body functioning (i.e. Able to run, push, lift) or growth. During our growing years much of the growth goes towards the development of our bodies, while later in life, when growth spurts have stopped, the body still grows, but only in muscle tissue, hair follicles, finger-nails and so on. You have probably heard that everyone is born with some sort of combination of alleles that convert calories at different, and this determines your metabolism...

There are many weight loss programs on the market that are indeed effective and can help many people lose a lot of weight, however this does not mean it is in your best interest to try these products out for yourself. I am of the opinion that you should never buy a weight loss product or supplement until you have done thorough research on it, so you can determine how it will affect your health. Some products may help you lose weight, but at the same time they may be deteriorating your health. I have knowledge on a particular topic that I believe can be beneficial to you, simply because I have personally tested it and can say with confidence that it is effective for weight loss as well as overall health improvement. The method I speak of is called "intermittent fasting." Fasting, a period of time when you refrain from eating solid food, benefits the body in many ways. If you can increase the time you spend fasting and decrease the time you spend consuming food, you can gre...

Over the years I've tried many ways to battle the fat loss fight; some successful, some not. But like most things, over time you get better at it and learn what works best for your body. Today I want to share with you 5 simple changes I made that helped me boost my fat loss in the hope that it will work for you too. 1. Get a good night sleep So many women compromise the number of hours of shut-eye they get. Lack of sleep makes your hormones turn in the wrong direction and can negatively impact your insulin sensitivity. If you don't get a good night's sleep your energy levels will drop throughout the day and you'll turn to food for a quick pick-me-up. Give it a go; skip the late night TV, switch off the laptop, and go to bed early! 2. Stress Less EVERYONE is stressed these days, and that's because we are also so 'crazy-busy'. Our lifestyles leave us exhausted both mentally and physically so we turn to coffee and other stimulants to help keep up ...
