Myth - Quick Weight Loss Part III

The ingredients for a true weight loss program are:

MOTIVATION + SELF DETERMINATION + WILLPOWER +
STAMINA + EXERCISE = WEIGHT LOSS SUCCESS

Quick weight loss a myth? Yes, for this writer. We should not be so quick to believe the claims of media advertisers and others who claimed there is a method for quick weight loss. Give them time and they will prove that quick weight loss is the key to long-term weight gain.

Myth - Quick Weight Loss Part II

Your body needs to have time to adjust to a healthy eating lifestyle. This adjustment does not occur overnight. Gradual is the key here. Give your body the time it needs to make the adjustment to your change. If you choose to try the “quick weight loss” schemes, your body will adjust and readjust accordingly.

Some say consulting with your physician regarding how many calories you should be consuming daily will yield the way to quick weight loss. This writer disagrees with this plan. This plan will cause you to put restrictions on your food consumption. Do you know if you are restricting the right foods? Do you know if your restrictions will be healthy and nutritious? The answers to these questions are the reason why quick weight loss is a myth to me.

Myth-Quick Weight Loss Part I

Once you have decided to plan a weight loss program, you begin to waiver to the media advertisers. These advertisers are in the weight loss game to take your money. So many of them promise or assure you their program is the best way to lose weight quickly.

Almost all of these diet programs fail because we don’t realize that everybody’s body chemistry is not the same. Your first thought when you hear these advertisers’ claims should be how could they make such a claim. These advertisers have no idea of what your body chemistry and your metabolism are. Understand what the media is doing – they are preying on your emotional senses to get you to buy their product.

Why would you want to lose weight quickly? Do you know that when you revert back to your same eating habits, you risk regaining the weight you thought you lost plus more? This is one of the main reasons why diets fail.

Fad Diets for Women Over 50 Part III

These commercialized fad diets for women over 50 could produce health risks such as heart disease, cholesterol that is not stable, high blood pressure, and diabetes. These are serious illnesses and must have our complete focus. Fad diets don’t address these issues for us.

For whatever reason we think we need to lose weight, we need to make sure we keep our focus on our overall health. Fad diets take that focus out of the equation. The best way to be in constant synch with your health is to be in constant contact with your physician.

Fad Diets for Women Over 50 Part II

We are entering or have entered menopause stage and what we used to do when we were younger is just not going to work any better now than it worked then. We have to pay closer attention to our health. We must be strict with ourselves when we start thinking about weight loss without any regard to any health issues we might have. It is imperative that we consult our physician before entering the weight loss realm and we must be in constant contact with the medical professionals for the duration of our weight loss plan.
For this reason and this reason alone, we should stay in constant contact with our physician because jumping on the bandwagon of these fad diets could create other health issues we never knew were existent. Our bodies are all different, yet the commercialized fad diets prey on all of us wanting to lose a few pounds. Visit me at www.marymshields.usana.com to see what I have chosen to do in this weight loss realm.

Picked it Up Again

It has been 17 days since I posted an update about my RESET weight loss program. I have lost an additional 2 pounds. My last post stated that I was at a standstill, not anymore. I am now up to 29 pounds lost since starting this in January, 2007. This is probably too fast for me to be losing weight, so I need to slow down a bit. I don't want to run the risk of gaining this weight again, so I have to be disciplined for slow weight loss.

Stay tuned. More news to come. If you want to try my program, go to www.marymshields.usana.com. You will be glad you did.

Fad Diets for Women Over 50

How many fad diets have you tried over the years? Did you have any weight loss success with any of these fad diets?

Let me answer that last question for you – NO. How do I know you did not have any success? It is very simple. First of all, if you had any success, you would not be reading this information right now because you would have succeeded in your weight loss goal using the fad diet you chose and looking for ways to lose weight would never be in the forefront of your mind. Secondly, if you had any success with either of the fad diets you chose, you would have chosen one and not several.

Ladies, let’s face it. Fad diets have no place in our lives. We have to be determined and motivated to use our own willpower to get rid of the weight we have gained over the years. We need to stop looking for the quick fix in the fad diets for what has taken time to develop.
