GO Weight Watchers!

Weight Watchers does the nutritional work for you.  They have a fantastic new point system that is based on good science and good sense.  If you have any questions about what you should eat, etc... make your life easier and base your meal plan on their plan.  But remember, any meal plan needs your inner strength and energy that YOU put into place today, tomorrow and everyday.  Life is short - enjoy, be healthly, be strong and stick up for yourself. Click on this link to get new info on what WW is u up to:   http://www.latimes.com/health/la-he-weight-watchers-20110110,0,6665084.story?track=rss&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+latimes%2Ffeatures%2Fhealth+%28L.A.+Times+-+Health%29&utm_content=Twitter

Prevent, Halt & Reverse Heart Disease

Along with getting your head together when it comes to weight loss and weight management -  I encourage everyone to GET EDUCATED!!  My "twist" on weight management centers around the psychology of it all, as we all know it's not about food - it's about getting yourself to do the right thing - everyday.  However, without the correct nutritional information, doing the right thing is impossible.  So -  read, read, read and look at the "science" behind any nutritional information.  I hate gimmicks, quick fixes and anything that sounds too good to be true.  I am a strong supporter of Weight Watchers - get one of their books and make it a permanent fixture in your kitchen.  I have another suggestion for your reading pleasure: "Prevent, Halt & Reverse Heart Disease" by Joseph C. Piscatella and Barry A. Franklin, PhD.  Read Step 4 beginning on page 201 "Balance your Diet".  Great information!!  Great guidelines and all based on science.

Beck: A good read

Seriously take a gander at Judith S. Beck's book: the Beck DIET Solution.  I like this book.  It is a serious look at solutions to successful weight management barriers.  It has depth, interaction and absolutely nothing about what to eat - fantastic. I highly suggest. Gathering, understanding and implementing this type of information will help form a foundation of strength when you are ready to lose weight and keep it off. 

Take some "me" time and enjoy this read.

the Beck DIET solution

May I suggest Dr. Judith S. Beck's book:  the Beck DIET solution...train your brain to think like a thin person.  Specifically chapter 6, "Day 13".....chapter 9, "Day 31".

Dr. Beck has some great material in this book.  I just bought it on-line from Amazon for $1.00 plus shipping (used in great condition).  Worth the investment............

A good warm up to my book in progress :)    WiTHIN You Now!™

Stay tuned!!  And stay tuned in to your inner strength and power.  You have it - find it.

Learn something new today!

Just ordered a copy (autographed of course) of Dr. Barry Franklin and Joe Piscatella's new book:  Prevent, Halt and Reverse Heart Disease - looking forward to reading it.  Have enjoyed the research of Dr. Franklin and the writings of Joe Piscatella for many years.  I'm a true believer in prevention - and it is never to late to begin YOUR prevention program. 

Remember sometimes ya just have to force yourself to make the right choices, and other times it's a snap.  The more you succeed, the snappier things Become.

Don't Weight to empty your fat bucket!

I know its tempting....but don't do it!  Don't weight for January to "take it off"!  Today is the best day to begin a lifetime of weight management......STOP PUTTING IT OFF AND START TAKING IT OFF!

I overheard an overweight woman at a holiday party announce"  "It's coming off next year".  I couldn't help but think......."REALLY"?!?  What makes next year any different than today?  Do you mean to tell me that suddenly things will just start to click - you'll start managing your every meal and snack?  Suddenly your problems with binging, over-indulging, and your "to heck with it" attitude will disappear?  Suddenly the new year will bring some sort of magical thing that will allow you to exercise daily, face challenging food situations and win? Or maybe you're planning a stomach surgery and that is going to take care of everything?   I think not. 

Convince yourself that losing weight and keeping it off is your first and most important priority by following a healthy lifestyle today......next year brings no magic.  The magic is WiTHIN You Now!™
