4 Tips For Dieting Without Pain


What is the secret to effective dieting? This is not an insignificant question. Many diet, few succeed. Many lose weight, but few achieve their ultimate weight loss goals and of those that do many gain it all right back. With that in mind here are some tips for dieting that are pain free and will produce lasting results.

First tip: You shouldn't be putting yourself on a diet! "What?," I hear you ask incredulously. The fact is that for many people a diet means restriction, and while it is a noble goal to want positive change in your life, it is unrealistic to expect that change to come from a temporary stop gap measure. If you are serious about losing those excess pounds you need to consider a lifestyle change rather than a diet.

What I mean is that we desire a long term permanent solution. Limiting yourself to vegies and yogurt for 2 weeks so you can impress at the family reunion may be a goal that is achievable, but it will not solve long term issues.

Tip 2: Massive deprivation, such as fasting, is not a safe or effective way to achieve lasting weight loss. Of all the tips for dieting that I could offer this one is crucial. It will not succeed and it is not safe.

Since you did not get into this condition overnight you cannot hope to solve it overnight either. Effective weight loss is a gradual process, and crash dieting is not a solution.

Think about the word "crash." If you were late for a weight watcher's meeting would crash driving get you there any faster? Not likely. If you lost your job and put off finding a new one until you were penniless would crash interviewing rescue you? Lots of luck with that one. "Crash" carries the connotation of a wreak. Don't wreak your health in an attempt to overcome years of dietary abuse overnight.

Tip 3: Third in our tips for dieting recommendations has to do with that naughty word "temptation." If there is one place where deprivation may be in order it is here. I'm referring to sensory deprivation.

To see a cookie is to eat it. That's because cookies have that uncanny ability to whisper little sweet nothings into our ears that lure us from our commitment.

Okay so maybe for you it's not cookies, but whatever your weakness is, run from it! If it is cookies then don't have them in the house. Don't look at them, don't smell them, touch them or taste them.

Tip 4: Aren't tips for dieting fun! Well here's one that is a stumbling block for many. Exercise is a one of the best tips on losing weight that I can offer. We all know it burns calories and adds lean muscle. The problem is that it's just so...hard!

Well here's a tip within a tip. Do exercise, by all means. But don't make it hard. That's right, exercise is hard because we tend to make it hard. That may work for one workout, but what about the next one. Do you feel so wonderful because of those 50 crunches you just did? That's great, but what about the next time when you must convince your brain and your body that you have to do it all over again?

That's why I always suggest moderate, doable and repeatable exercise that you can live with forever.

Try walking. This is one of the most enjoyable and relaxing pastimes you can engage in. So much so that we don't even think of it as exercise. It can be done successfully by almost anyone regardless of conditioning level. Best of all, it works.

I hope these tips for dieting have been helpful. They are no more than common sense. Remember, if it's excessive, unsafe or rationally indefensible it's probably wrong. It's the same kind of thinking that got you overweight in the first place.

Juice Fasting - Self Care You Can't Live Without


The need for regular detoxification of our bodies has never been greater. Scientific research continues to uncover direct links between environmental toxins and a wide range of diseases including cancer. Pollutants new and old continue to contaminate our environment.

Juice fasting is one of the most effective self-care approaches to detoxification and disease reversal. Many benefits of fasting are observable and predictable. They serve as a remarkable example of the healing power of the human body.

The most notable benefits of juice fasting include improved energy, enhanced sensory awareness, improved mood, increased mental clarity, and heightened states of consciousness.

When you think of fasting, do you think of starvation and deprivation? You're not alone. This is a very popular misconception. On the contrary, fasting is an undertaking that quickly improves your body's ability to heal, repair, and rejuvenate itself. The key to experience the maximum benefit from juice fasting lies in knowing how to prepare for juice fasting, how to fast properly, and how to reintroduce foods after your juice fast is over.

Juice fasting is a very powerful cleansing process and could be harmful if done improperly. If you have specific health conditions or if you have any questions or concerns, you should consult your physician before you begin a juice fasting. Pregnant or lactating women should not fast.

When juice fasting is done properly, it spares the body from expending energy to digest food which converts food into glycogens. During the first couple of days of a juice fast, the liver provides an alternative fuel source.

By the third day the body has consumed its stored sugars and begins to burn stored fat as its energy source. It's through this process the real health benefits of the juice fast begin to show. Toxins are stored in fatty tissues. During the height of a juice fasting, as the body burns and expels stored fat, it carries toxins out of the body.

Another effect of juice fasting is blood thinning. Thin blood moves more easily through the body and allows more oxygen and white blood cells to be delivered throughout the body. When you fast, your body can direct more energy to self-regulation and as a result it will function better. Self-regulation includes proper cell growth and eliminatory and immune functions.

Your body will also become more able to recognize old cells and nonessential tissues. As you fast, your body will be better able to separate and recycle nutrients from old cells and use them to generate new cells.

Do you suffer from food allergies or asthma? What about fibromyalgia, migraines, or high blood pressure (hypertension)? These and many more health conditions have been resolved or improved through juice fasting. Obesity, as well as respiratory, skin and vision problems were also improved or resolved. This is by no means a complete list of all the physiological benefits reaped by juice fasting. It's the result of cleansing the body and helping the body eliminate environmental toxins stored in cells and tissues.

Fasting can make an incredible positive impact on your health and total well-being. Juice fasting once or twice a year will ensure your body is able to function properly and protect itself against the toxins we're regularly exposed to every day on this planet.

Periodic fasts, daily juicing, and a healthy diet are three self-care practices you can use to ensure you live a vibrant and healthy life. What are you waiting for? Start now!

Top 7 Ways to Enjoy Holiday Celebrations Without Overeating


During the holiday season, delicious high calorie food is everywhere. From Thanksgiving to office parties, church celebrations, and family gatherings we're bombarded with temptations. Research confirms that the more food choices and opportunities we have to eat the more we consume. All too often we eat simply because it's there.

However, there are ways to combat this tendency. Here are 7 things you can do to be prepared:

1. Make or purchase low calorie foods for celebrations when you are asked to bring a dish.

If you are asked to contribute, it is the perfect opportunity to prepare a healthy low calorie item. Make up a dish of sliced fresh fruit or veggies. Or bring a low cal tossed salad made with spinach or mixed leafy greens. By providing a low calorie healthy choice you know will have at least one food you can fill up on to limit how much you eat of higher calorie food.

2. Eat less the day before and the day after.

Do eat healthy meals and snacks the day before and after, just eat a little less. Having a slight calorie deficit on these days will allow you to indulge some on the day of a big meal or other celebration.

Skipping meals is not good for your health and can set you up for other problems. If your body experiences what it senses to be a "feast or famine" kind of situation it might respond by slowing down your metabolism. Also, allowing yourself to get overly hungry can easily set the stage for overeating later.

3. Fill up on water the day of a celebration.

You can choose to drink lots of water or other low calorie beverages to fill up and reduce the amount you eat. Or you can follow the advice of Barbara Rolls, a satiety expert and researcher with Pennsylvania State University and do even better by filling up with foods that have high water content. Foods such as broth-based soup and sliced veggies or tossed salads made with mixed greens can not only fill you up but also provide you with greater satisfaction than beverages. What may work best for you is getting plenty of water from both food and beverages.

4. Visualize in advance how you might avoid overeating.

In your mind's eye see yourself selecting healthier low calorie choices first. This might be food with high water or fiber content. Feel yourself filling up on these foods. Imagine serving yourself small portions of anything else and limiting the total amount you have on your plate. Then picture yourself choosing only one dessert or treat or maybe a small piece of two or three different treats. You sense that you are satisfied because you have selected only the best and you feel you are just about full from what you have already eaten.

5. Allow yourself to have some treats.

Depriving yourself of your favorite treats can set yourself up for overeating later. It's far better to allow yourself to have some. What matters most is keeping the portion small. If you have prepared by following some of the other suggested tips you will be less likely to overindulge.

At the same time, be aware of your "trigger" foods. These are the foods that may be very difficult to stop eating once you start. You need to decide if there are certain foods you may be better off avoiding.

6. Eat slowly and mindfully.

One of the best ways to limit what you eat is to eat slowly with complete sensory awareness of the food you are eating. Doing so gives you an opportunity to more fully enjoy your food and to get as much satisfaction from a small portion as you might get from eating a larger portion fast. It also gives your body the time it needs to register when you have eaten enough.

7. Limit how much you drink of alcoholic beverages.

Alcoholic beverages can be a significant source of calories! In addition, alcohol can depress your metabolic rate while at the same time stimulate your appetite.

Having a plan will give you an opportunity to enjoy the holidays and all the food choices that come along with it without weight gain.
