Natural Vitamins are a part of Weight Loss - 6

Have You Ever had a Weight Loss Issue?

Well I have! I weighed 440# at the top and now hold at about 125#. So this article isn't from someone who just read about weight loss and Natural Vitamins, been there and done that, as they say.

We all either have some weight to lose or know someone who does. Slowly we can let our weight creep up and lead us into poor health. Many of the illnesses we develope as we age are a direct result and can be caused or increased in severity by poor health habits and being overweight.

Natural Vitamins and vitalty test and a good nutritional plan is the second step towards optimal health. All Natural Weight Loss affects your overall physical and emotional health.

We all have to start somewhere so what is the first step? You will find that making that FIRM decision and commitment to change habits that will lead to a healthier you is first.

You won't have weight loss or health and wellness because someone else wants you to; it just doesn’t work that way. Eventually the will to lose weight, keep those changed habits going and staying on top of your nutrition gives way BECAUSE it really wasn’t what you were committed to.

So get straight from the start; set the commitment to have weight loss, get vital and healthy and do the work that goes with it. It is more than worth it but you’ll only fully realize that when you are feeling strong, healthy and have more energy than you’ve ever had before.

It is important that through the process you keep the muscle that you have and work towards adding to it. That word we don’t often want to talk about is physical exercise. Even your heart is a muscle and your heart is greatly affected by being overweight as well as dieting too dramatically and dropping weight too fast. With weight loss; plan to burn the fat that you don’t need, and lose those inches that you don’t want. What could be simpler than that?
Natural Vitamins and Suppliment will give you additional strength and vitality which is encouraging.

Analyze your nutritional plan for a well balanced and nutritional appropriate plan that is appropriate for you. If necessary consult with a nationalist or do your own research, write out a plan and then work with a daily journal to track your progress. Weigh only once a week but measure once a month.

Often when you hit those pesky plateaus, you’ll be losing that fat which weighs less and gaining muscle, getting leaner and yet it weighs more. So don't worry. The measurements being tracked will be encouraging as you progress on you weight loss plan.

Now for the exercise, not an option, no successful long term plans works out without changing our habits. So – what will you do consistently and what are you physically able to do. Be sure to consult with your family physician when starting any serious weight loss plan. Have a good variety of exercise plans, from aerobic, strength training to flexibility (yoga is fantastic for that one). Having a variety helps to not get bored. Again in your journal keep track of your results in your journal.

Natural Vitamins and Supplements – they are critical to your overall success plan. Keeping your protein up is so important so look to your supplements in relation to an overall plan. If you are eating an average American food plan of junk foods and eating on the run OR if you are cutting back on food and doing your best to eat a balanced plan, it still isn’t enough.

So if you are using healthy foods, or protein bars and shakes supplement with a solid Natural Vitamin program. Your body and your mind will thank you for it. Weight Loss takes planning and determination AND nutrition takes a plan as well with high quality of Natural Vitamins and Supplements.

As a avid user of Leanology, I can say with assurance that we have one of the very best, well balanced and researched programs. We have the best all natural wight loss program with the combination of Natural Vitamins availabe. Each plan can be adapted to your specific needs.

There are also available clinical reserch papers for you. So what day are you waiting for to get started moving towards optimal health?

Thre is no better time than now. Check out our Healthy Weight Loss Program. Here's to the last program you will ever need.

Eat Less - Eat More Often = Weight Loss - 5

Surprise - Eat More Small Meals for Weight Loss.

Yes it’s true. Healthy snacking or if you prefer to call them ‘small meals’ will make it easier to lose weight.

The servings that are being dished out in Fast Food and Junk Food Road Stops and Restaurants is astounding.

I took my family when they visited unexpectedly to a nice Italian Restaurant a few weeks ago. We got to visiting and I forgot to warn them of the size of the portions this Restaurant served. When our waitress came, all of us just looked stunned.

Each of us had ordered a meal and each meal could easily feed 2 or even 3 people. Needless to say, we had leftovers for a very long time.

That is the way it is now days. Over sizing meals has become the norm. And obviously it relates to higher calorie intake, often including fats and sugars.

In our country people are dying of obesity or illness brought on by being overweight; where in other countries people are dying of starvation. That doesn’t make any sense to me.

One way for you to be successful with weight loss is to gradually start reducing the portions of the meals and increasing how often you eat. I like using a small salad plate to eat my meals and then I got these small bowls, I think they would be called ‘custard’ bowls. That way my plate doesn’t look empty when I’m eating.
Another helping tip is to use a measuring cup to measure. Just what does ½ cup look like anyway?

Actually we shouldn’t be surprised; our digestive system really works better with a small meal and thus we assimilate the nutrients more efficiently, giving ourselves more energy after the meal.

Big meals make us sluggish and we lose a lot of the nutrition.

For weight loss have some quick easy preplanned snacks. There are good selections of protein bars and health drinks, fresh fruit and keep fresh raw vegetables cleaned and cut up with a dip you like.

Experiment with new foods, like a tofu dip with spices you like. If you just wrinkled your nose, either you’ve never tried it or didn’t use a good mix. Tofu is high in protein and has NO taste. It takes on the taste of whatever you add to it.
There is less potential energy in a small meal to be stored as fat. This of course gives you the opportunity to burn off excess fat and help you have a steady flow of weight loss.

With the concept of eating small meals and eating more often, you get triple benefits for your efforts. There will be fewer calories, increased metabolic rate and less chance of feeling bloated.

Health and Wellness which includes weight loss for many is within your reach.

It will also help you to eat smaller portions if you drink a large glass of pure water ½ hour before the meal and don’t drink again until 1 hour after the meal.
That way you aren’t flushing food through you. Did you know that often when you think you are hungry, you really are thirsty. Give it a chance. You’ve got nothing to lose but weight. Weight loss is for health and wellness, are you ready?

Weight Loss is a Product of Our Beliefs - 4


Weight Loss - What You Think is What You Create AND it is NOT Your Fault!

"I think, therefore I am, or I am happy, or I am sad, or I am angry, or I am worthless and more. What we know--or think we know--is our biggest roadblock to learning." By Francis M. Duffy.

How does Weight Loss relate to that?

Oh how our beliefs, our minds and thoughts do shape our being, our behavior and our vary life as we perceive it. That certainly includes how we think about ourselves, our value as a mother or father, husband or wife, teen or elder; it matters not.
If we think we are less than or undeserving of being or that it is unsafe for us to walk this world; then often we develop eating disorders including issues of weight loss and health. This can often be a result of physical, verbal or sexual abuse.

Oh our minds and beliefs are powerful indeed. So some weight loss tips include getting some level of control over our very beliefs and actions; would you not agree this could be valuable.

YES, of course, nutrition and natural vitamins have a place in this picture. But 1st comes what you think and believe, the rest will follow.

The first step is to know the filter is there, to be present in your daily tasks and activities so that you can be vigilant about who or what you let fill you sub-conscious (the place where decisions and beliefs are rooted).

The old unwanted can be replaced. You can choose to engage the FILTER FACTOR and there are processes to do this, many of which are gentle.

Did you know you can Google for the physical signs that the emotional health and wellbeing is out of balance? For example if you experience several of the following: back pain, change in appetite, chest pain, constipation or diarrhea, extreme tiredness, general aches and pains & headaches, high blood pressure, insomnia (trouble sleeping), palpitations (the feeling that your heart is racing), sexual problems, shortness of breath, upset stomach and weight gain or weight loss are all examples.

Poor emotional health can weaken your bodys immune system, making it more likely to increase our sugar intake, coffee and alcohol, we often experience more colds and with this stress we do not take care of our physical or emotional body as we need to.

One of the first steps to healthy natural weight loss is to start to understanding the mind body connection. Ponder on the concept and be mindful for the next few days of the messages that are being tossed at you and the messages you are tossing at yourself. Remember your filter factor and choose what to keep and what to reject. Your health will depend on it.

To lose weight requires awareness of your mind, thoughts and behaviors. For how can we have a fresh new tomorrow while living and reliving yesterday? As to working with a Natural Weight Loss Program, it must be ever so healthy and proven to be of the highest standards for nutrition. The Leanology Program is such a program with an exceptional amount of research and real science into each product and the aspect of your health and wellness.

Heathy Living - Weight Loss and Stress - 2

Healthy Weight Loss and Stress. How Does that effect Weight Loss?

Do you have stress in your life? We all do, it's kinda like rain, just keeps coming. It's how we handle Stress that makes all the difference. My Weight Loss and healthy living has certainly been affected by stress eating. Has yours?

There are lots of reasons we over eat, a list longer than I could write. So lets just look at Stress Eating. One things that helps is to write a list of all the things you do, tasks, people you have relations with from co-workers, friends and family, where you live, make this a long list, nothing too small to put on it. Then mark off what 'feeds' you, makes you feel good and refreshed, and check off those things that deplete you or stress you.

Now you've got something to work with. Change what you can, delete, give away, delegate or accept. But it is time to take responsibility for your life. Decrease the stressors for they wear you down. This makes it much easier for healthy weight loss.

If you've ever had food issues then you know of Stress Eating and the relationship to Healthy Weight Loss? I’ll bet my two pennies you have. Do you eat while driving, working, watching TV, visiting with anyone or even have food stashed in your pockets or bag when going to any meetings or social functions? I have and it was stress eating. When feeling all thight or jittery, are you heading for a candy bar, soda or the rage: fancy coffee drinks loaded with sugar?

Yes, that's stress eatting and drinking. Sugar is drug that usually calms someone down at first then there is a rush and crash effect. You are probably familure with that. So you follow that with more sugar OR meat, usually red meat to balance it out and the cycle goes on and on. Yep, been there and done that one many times in past years. NO more though. My weight loss program is in my hands now.

Stress eating is something we are all probably well acquainted with. Some common examples of issues that bring chronic stress are: Candida, which is an overproduction of yeast (often brought about by eating a lot of sugars and stress), for me, sugar and stress goes hand in hand. Then there are issues like Adult ADD, Seasonal affective disorder (SAD), Electromagnetic sensitivity (which can be a result of spending too much time in front of your computer) – that one is a challenge since I have successful home computer business, a made up word I call "askaphobia," which is a fear of asking for help {does that resonate withy you?}, Sleep debt and Sleep apnea.

Then there are Work addictions, Toxic relationships, Perfectionism, Weak boundaries, among many others. Healthy weight loss is a complicated little beast and when someone says, “well, just eat less” I know they have never had the challenge of food and what our relationship is to it. It is not a simple issue but it is one you can win the battle with!

Chronic Stress takes a toll on our physical system but it also wears down our inner strength to hold to our personal commitments and goals. Taking a loving, gentle but honest inventory of your life is so vital to success in Halthy Weight Loss and personal health, both physical and emotional. Cronic Stress is behind most illnesses and is the number one problem we have to find constructive ways to disapate. Stress either controls us OR we learn to manage our lives, our actions and reactions so that Stress is not the Silent One that steals our dreams.

Are you ready for your last weight loss program? One that support all aspects of your life: health and wellness, mind chatter, emotional issues you can now take on, nutritional support - a full plan for healthy living?

Healthy Weight Loss - Healthy Living - 1

Healthy Weight Loss and the Mind Body Connection

Mind Body Connection or What You Think is What You Create is sometimes more true with a weight loss program and issues than anything else we are achieving. How we see ourselves and the reality is often a distorted picture. Not just of the physical body but the true us within. Our thoughts create who we are, how we live, the choices we make, how we relate to family and other people and how we view all aspects of our lives. And what we BELIEVE we do ACHIEVE. Healthy Living is the primary goal.

Ouch ... that concept can bite at first. How can the reality of your life have be created by what you think and believe? I’ll use an analogy that made really good sense to me when it was presented. (I suggest you get a piece of paper or your journal). This excersie will help in preparing for a natural and healthy weight loss program that you can live with.


This is something I have done with frined and clients as well. I'd like you first draw a circle at the top of a piece of paper and inside the circle write ‘conscious mind’, in the middle of the page make another circle and inside write ‘sub-conscious’. Now below that make an ark (an open half circle with the open end down). In the ark label it ‘super-conscious’.

Starting at the top lets think of this in the same way we think of a computer hard drive. Your conscious is like the data input area. It does not know right from wrong, just as the key board keys hit, it says .... OK! This point is criticle to understand.

Draw a picture or use words and put arrows going into the conscious. You get input from so many sources: your family, friends and not so friends, teachers, TV, movies, books you read and have read, music you listen to, things that are understood as in society messages, magazines, commercials. Even well meaning people can put some really stinging and harmful information into your subconscious). Like when my name sake Aunt Nancy met me for the first time, pinched my cheek hard and said "my what a cute little fat girl you are". Well, that did it, I never go by Nancy any more and I was confirmed that I was FAT and Cute - a confusing picture.

This sub-conscious (just like for the input into a computer does not make any decision at this point if it is true or false. Now draw an Arrow going down to the sub-conscious (the storage area) and see what has been put into storage.
I think you can see the problem here. We, you and I normally go by, day after day, acting and reacting on what has been stored in our sub-conscious (the computer memory – no judgment of right or wrong information). This where we also create our self talk and beliefs, much of which is on faulty information. Our beliefs about healthy weight loss and how we precieve ourselves is developed.

Now draw a wavy line between the conscious circle and sub-conscious circle. This is called the FILTER and YOU do have control of this once you know it is there. If you start today and listen, really listen and evaluate you can decide what to let through the filter, what is healthy and in your best interests.

The first step is to know the filter is there, to be present in your daily tasks and activities so that you can be vigilant about who or what you let fill you sub-conscious (the place where decisions and beliefs are rooted). The old unwanted can be replaced.

Did you know there are physical signs that the your emotional health and wellbeing is out of balance. For example if you experience several of the following: Back pain, Change in appetite, Chest pain, Constipation or diarrhea, Extreme tiredness, General aches and pains & Headaches, High blood pressure, Insomnia (trouble sleeping), Palpitations (the feeling that your heart is racing), Sexual problems, Shortness of breath, Upset stomach and Weight gain or loss are all examples.

Poor emotional health can weaken your bodys immune system, making it more likely to increase our sugar intake, coffee and alchole, we often experience more colds and with this stress we do not take care of our physical or emotional body as we need to. A weight loss program to meet your needs has to also assit with your growth of clearing the mind chatter.

So one of the first steps to natural healthy weight loss is understanding the mind body connection. Ponder on the concept and be mindful for the next few days of the messages that are being tossed at you and the messages you are tossing at yourself. Remember your filter factor and choose what to keep and what to reject. Your healthy living will depend on it.
