Are you overweight?
Most people are afraid to admit they are.
It may not be a crime to be overweight, but it can be harmful to your health and life, if you fail to take action to reduce your weight.
Nobody wants to be overweight and ugly.
If you're overweight, are you interested in learning about the positive approach to taking action to deal with it?
Here are some weight loss insights to help you lose weight effortlessly.
It has been reported that one out of every seven Americans may be overweight.
So, being overweight is a problem facing millions of Americans today.
If you are overweight, you can begin today to do something about it.
Once you have made up your mind to lose weight, you should make that commitment and go into it with a positive attitude.
We all know that losing weight can be quite a challenge. In fact, for some, it can be downright tough.
It takes time, practice and support to change lifetime habits.
This is why having the right attitude is of paramount importance.
One well known actress, Kirstie Alley who became overweight has just created a TV show labeled Fat Actress show!
Instead of being at home and feeling sorry for herself for becoming overweight, she decide to create a show about it!
It is an example of having a positive attitude towards a problem and turning a misfortune into a good fortune that will yield millions of dollars.
The discipline required to modify and control your eating habits and to lose weight is a process you must learn in order to succeed.
You and you alone are the one who has the power to lose unwanted pounds.
Think like a winner, and not a loser - - remember that emotions are like muscles and the ones you use most grow the strongest.
If you always look at the negative side of things, you'll become a downbeat, pessimistic person. You'll fail.
Even slightly negative thoughts have a greater impact on you and last longer than powerful positive thoughts.
Negative thinking doesn't do you any good, it just holds you back from accomplishing the things you want to do.
When a negative thought creeps into your mind, replace it reminding yourself that you're somebody, you have self-worth and you possess unique strengths and talents.
Contemplate what lies ahead of you. Losing weight is not just about diets. It's about a whole new you and the possibility of creating a new life for yourself.
Investigate the weight loss programs that appeal to you and that you feel will teach you the behavioral skills you need to stick with throughout the weight-loss process.
First you should look for support among family and friends. It can be an enormous help to discuss obstacles and share skills and tactics with others on the same path.
You might look for this support from others you know who are in weight loss programs and you can seek guidance from someone you know who has lost weight and kept it off.
There are success stories across the country today. On television and in newspapers, magazines and tabloids about people who have miraculously lost untold pounds and kept it off.
In all instances they say their mental attitude as well as their outlook on life has totally changed.
Diets and weight loss programs are more flexible now than they once were and there are many prepared foods already portioned out.
They are made attractive and can be prepared in a matter of minutes.
Low-fat and low-calorie foods are on shelves everywhere.
You will probably need to learn new, wiser eating skills. You will want a weight loss regimen that gives you some control, rather than imposing one rigid system.
Look for one that offers a variety of different eating plans, so you can choose the one that's best for you.
Keep in mind, too, that your weight loss program will most likely include some physical exercises.
Look at the exercising aspect of your program as fun and recreation and not as a form of grueling and sweaty work.
The fact is that physical fitness is linked inseparable to all personal effectiveness in every field.
Anyone willing to take the few simple steps that lie between them and fitness will shortly begin to feel better, and the improvement will reflect itself in every facet of their existence.
Doctors now say that walking is one of the best exercises. It helps the total circulation of blood throughout the body, and thus has a direct effect on your overall feeling of health.
There are things such as aerobics, jogging, swimming and many other exercises which will benefit a weight loss program.
Discuss the options with your doctor and take his advice in planning your exercise and weight loss program.
Warmly,

Green Tea May Ward Off Weight Gain
But You'd Have to Drink a Lot of Tea to Match Preliminary Lab Tests in Mice


By Miranda Hitti WebMD Medical NewsReviewed by Louise Chang, MDJan. 23, 2008


The benefits of green tea might include blocking fat and keeping extra pounds at bay, according to preliminary lab tests in mice.
Don't skip over that word "preliminary." There's no proof yet that sipping green tea will do the same for people. Staying in shape continues to be a balancing act between calories and activity.
Here's what those preliminary lab tests in mice show:
Less weight and fat gain. Among mice with an obesity gene, those that ate chow laced with green tea extract gained less weight and less fat. Less fat in the liver. There was less sign of "fatty liver" disease in the mice with the obesity gene that ate chow laced with green tea extract. Lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in mice with the obesity gene that ate the chow laced with green tea extract, compared to other mice with the same obesity gene. A healthy liver isn't fatty. But obesity -- in mice or in people -- can lead to fatty buildup in the liver and cause nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
As for that green tea extract, the study used it in doses equal to what a person would get from drinking at least seven cups of green tea a day.
The University of Connecticut's Richard Bruno, PhD, RD, and colleagues report their findings in February's edition of The Journal of Nutrition.
