Try Flax Seed Oil Weight Loss

Filed under: weight-loss — admin @ 1:31 am

What is better than a diet that is convenient?

Years and years of research have been dedicated to the subject of weight loss. Some of the obvious findings are that routine exercise and a healthy, well balanced diet in moderation can lead to weight loss. However, many people don’t have time to obsess about having a healthy diet or consistently workout so they are also looking for a more convenient method to lose weight. Convenience often means finding the quickest method that they can in order to experience weight loss, whether they have reservations about its effectiveness or not. This is where some of the years of research have spawned worthless products such as machines that are designed to give you the perfect stomach or pills that claim to decrease your waste size overnight. So if you have tried these products in the past, consider something more natural and try flax seed oil weight loss.

Flax seed oil does your body good

We want to familiarize you with flax seed oil. It is extracted from the flax seed grain and has been used for centuries. The strange thing about flax seed oil weight loss is that it occurs because of the presence of two fatty acids within the oil known as Linolenic (Omega 3) and Linoleic (Omega 6). It may be weird to ponder the possibilities of fatty acid helping to promote weight loss but when these two substances combine, they become key in the process of calorie burning. This is because they combine to become prostaglandins, which help with weight loss and also provide other benefits such as moderating cholesterol, body temperature, the immune system, brain functions, and the cardiovascular system.

Get enough Omega 3 and feel the difference

The problem with most diets is that they don’t get enough Omega 3 in their diet along with the Omega 6 to produce a lot of prostaglandins. The ratio should be one Omega 3 for every two Omega 6, but instead is usually one for every twenty in typical diets. Make sure that you are getting enough Omega 3, add flax seed oil to your diet and notice the change in your body and brain.

Should You Weigh Yourself Everyday

Filed under: weight-loss — admin @ 1:05 am

What do you do about the scale? If you weigh yourself everyday you will likely see your weight bounce up and down, and on up days you can get discouraged. That is why many trainers will tell you to ignore the scale. They will tell you that what is really important is how fit you are, and not how much you weigh.

And on the other hand, there are diet programs and diet books that focus only on the scale, and sell you on quick weight loss based on nothing but the scale.

Which way is right? Scale or no scale? They both have some truth in them. Let’s sort it out.

We tend to be focused on the scale, because it is such an easy thing to measure, and it is easy to compare the numbers. You read that your favorite celebrity lost 25 poundsyou can easily understand that. You read, “Lose 15 pounds in 2 days!” You can certainly understand that.

The scale gives us a number that we can use and compare and use. It is simple.

But if you think about it, the reason we are so intent on the scale is not because we really are so interested in numbers, but because we are interested in looking good. We want to be lean. We want to be sexy. We want our clothes to fit, and we want to be appealing to others. And we know that when we lose weight we get these things. So we get hooked on the scale.

But the scale is just one part of it. What is really important is the details that we cannot measure so easily. For instance, you can lose weight but instead of losing fat you lose muscle. This happens all the time with quick weight loss diets.

When you are done, you don’t look as good as you thought you would. Your arms are still flabby. Your belly still sags. You still don’t look good in a bathing suit and you are still embarrassed about your body. And since you don’t have as much muscle to burn up calories, you gain the weight back faster than ever.

See, even if the scale improved, you didn’t accomplish what you wanted. So even though it is harder to measure, what you really want to know is how much lean body mass you have as well as how much fat you have.

If you became really lean, really firm, with sleek, strong muscles, and you saw your trim abs in the mirror, the firm arms, and the sexy butt, you wouldn’t care what the scale said.

On the other hand, the people who are the most successful in weight loss, in taking the weight off and keeping it off forever, are people who have a weight loss goal and who actually reach that goal. Not the people who lose some of their excess weight, or who get almost to the goal. No, the people who keep it off get all the way to their exact goal.

Many people can lose some of their weight and get part way to their goal. But the vast majority gain it back. But those people who have a goal and reach the goal are much more likely to keep the weight off.

So you see, there are two sides to the weight loss coin. There is more to losing weight and getting the body you want than the scale. And on the other hand, having a goal and reaching it will dramatically increase your odds of staying lean forever.

So what do you do? The best way is to make the scale part of your plan, but not the whole plan. Weigh yourself regularly, keep a chart, and watch only the long-term trend, not the daily ups and downs. And you can get the body you want.

Close Kept Secrets to Weight Loss Lesson #46

Filed under: weight-loss — admin @ 1:45 am

I was asked a question recently and thought I would pose the same question to you.

What monetary value do you put on your health?

Think about this. You put a monetary value on your home, on your car, on your furniture..all these things have a monetary value and yet they can be replaced.

Now, let’s look at your health. Is it irreplaceable?

I asked a friend this same question, and she said her health is priceless. Well, what exactly does priceless mean in the context of health.

Before we do this, let’s look at an heirloom which is considered priceless to many. Thus, it’s irreplaceable. You take care of that heirloom. You place it in a space that is protected. You focus on that heirloom with such profound love because you want it to last so you can pass it on to family members. The intent is this heirloom stays in wonderful condition in order to preserve its meaning to all the family who will care for it for years to come. We look at that heirloom and say this is a part of us and it has incredible value.

Well if our health is priceless, then shouldn’t we be treating it in the same respect as our heirloom? Shouldn’t we be preserving our health and loving our bodies so that our family gets the benefit of what meaning we serve in their lives.

Yet, how many of us actually do this on a conscious level?

Most of the population doesn’t take the time nor invest in themselves monetarily choosing those things that will affirm nurturing, love and protection for its most valuable heirloom - YOU! Giving to ourselves each and everyday and investing in those things that affirm health is the most valuable thing you can give your family.

Which would you rather give your family? A necklace passed down from your great grandmother or a healthy, vibrant YOU filled with love for yourself? Which one has more value to pass down from generation to generation?

I can speak about this as my mother died in 1987. I have my mother’s wedding rings that I will pass on, and they do have great meaning. However, I would choose to have a mother who knew how to love herself, who knew how to take care of herself so that I could have learned from her in how to do this for myself. What greater gift is there to pass on?

I spent many years in struggle not understanding how to love myself. It wasn’t just from my mother; it was from my father as well. Neither one of them knew how to love themselves.

Guess what? Now, I have learned how to do this, and am showing my daughter, Lindsay, what this looks like. She, in turn, is finding incredible value from this as she is understanding and taking action in how to do this for herself. As a 21 year old intelligent, beautiful woman, she does the following:

eats nutritious foods
exercises
surrounds herself with positive people
reads spiritual books
loves spending time with herself
gets massages
sees a Naturopathic doctor and nutritionist
sees a chiropractor
dates a young man who treats her with kindness
a senior at the University of Washington majoring in business, and regularly makes the Dean’s list

I am so proud of Lindsay. This picture of her would have looked much different if I hadn’t learned how to lead by example

So let’s go back to my original question. What monetary value do you put on your health?

My answer to this question is.over a million dollars. Thus, I choose to invest my money where I will get the greatest return and that is in myself and Lindsay to keep affirming loving ourselves. Look at this priceless gift that will be passed down to generations to come. Is it worth it? Every penny!

I think of the money that it cost me when I lived in struggle, the energy and the time. Then I have to figure in the monetary amount impact to everyone else when I didn’t love myself.

Protect and nurture YOU to pass down the value to your future generations.
