Workouts Seen to Curb Appetite Hormones Aid in Weight Loss
 
 
 
 Aerobic exercise is better than non-aerobic activities at suppressing appetite, according to a U.K. study.

The research involved 11 male university students who participated in three types of sessions. In one, they ran for 60 minutes on a treadmill and then rested for seven hours. In another, they did 90 minutes of weight lifting and then rested for 6.5 hours. In the third session, they did no exercise.

The participants received two meals during each session and also reported their hunger levels at various points during each session. The researchers measured the students’ levels of two major appetite hormones: ghrelin (which stimulates appetite) and peptide YY (which suppresses appetite).

During the treadmill session (aerobic exercise), ghrelin levels dropped and peptide YY levels increased, indicating that the hormones were suppressing appetite. During the weightlifting (non-aerobic) session, ghrelin levels decreased, but there was no significant change in peptide YY levels. The appetite hormone effects of both types of exercise lasted for a few hours.

Both types of exercise suppressed hunger, but aerobic exercise resulted in greater suppression of hunger. The findings were published online in the American Journal of Physiology — Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology.

"The finding that hunger is suppressed during and immediately after vigorous treadmill running is consistent with previous studies indicating that strenuous aerobic exercise transiently suppresses appetite," senior author David J. Stensel, of Loughborough University, said in an American Physiological Society news release. "The findings suggest a similar, although slightly attenuated response, for weight-lifting exercise."

He said this line of research may lead to more effective ways to use exercise to help control weight.

The Truth About Weight Loss is It Does Require Discipline.

As we end the old and begin a new year I want touch briefly on the bad news of weight loss. That is that weight loss requires discipline. Accept this and you will come quickly to the place that you have to be to begin serious and sustained fat loss until you are at goal weight. That’s true because losing fat isn’t rocket science it is a matter of following a few simple steps. The genius is in the simplicity. The buggaboo is in the consistency or lack of it.

• plan to succeed on the eating front. That is, in advance know what you want to have that will be consistent with the goal of healthy eating. From start to finish here give yourself the advantage of being prepared shop with a list consistent with your eating goals, in the morning taking just a moment to see yourself eating the good healthy choices in the right amounts. Prepare in advance to win the momentary challenge of the moment by making good choices easy when the choice has to be made. In advance have veggies at the ready, make the cereal in your cupboard a smart diet choice  forget fruit loops have some unsweetened choices and add some fruit on your. You get the picture.



• exercise. Do it with an intensity that is as much as you can do and still be coming back for more. Trying to do too much will only get keep you on the couch instead of on the road in your sneakers. How long you do it is also reliant on what will keep you coming back to it. I like as a minimum a good twenty minutes thirty is better at an intensity level that is at least a little challenging. Do this most days of the week. However if what will keep you moving that body through space is a program of moderate walking, swimming, biking whatever makes your boat float than do it that way. As they say just do it. If you don’t like the huff and puff stuff than try to get in 30 minutes of what you do like at the pace that will keep you coming back most days of the week.
• ritualize your evenings to the extent that they will not include a good day’s eating getting sabotaged by a mindless refrigerator raid. Instead plan to have a piece of fruit at some time in the early evening make a big deal of it. Eat it slowly really taste and enjoy it. No guilt really love it and it’s healthy calories. Don’t be afraid to include a small reward of something you love. About a fifty calorie piece of dark chocolate is my choice I always know  it’s mine to have and that gets me through some difficult moments.



• in the morning start again with just a minute of visualization where you see yourself making the better choices all day in the matters of eating and exercise. See yourself enjoying the thinner you that results from the consistency of the good choices. You will have a hard time not losing the unwanted pounds when you do this.
• now fat loss is second nature to you because you’ve accepted the truth that discipline is part of the program. Success will breed success as fitness and the thinner you of your wildest dreams become a reality.
• it’s simple and it gets easier with practice to weigh what you want to.

What’s My Choice for Weight Loss Exercise?

The answer is exercise , any exercise. The key is choose one or several that will actually do. The benefit of mone over an other is minimal compared to choosing one(s) you will do. 

This is too big a question to answer in a 500 word blog because the answer really is a little broad you see my answer is movement. That is moving your body thru space. This must be done at a sustained pace or effort for  at least 10 minutes but 20 really is ideal. Too many people think they have to practically kill themselves with exercise to get benefit. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Just a twenty minute walk as if you are late for an appointment will get you on the road to fitness. Remember too that exercise alone will not get the job of weight loss accomplished. You must consume less calories to lose weight and do it in combination with just moderate exercise to win the battle. Forget the marathon I personally know dozens of marathoners who could stand to lose weight.

Just How Many Calories Will I Actually Burn?

The energy you you use is dependent on several factors,how much you weigh, the pace you choose, and the condition you are in. This is one time where being out of shape will actually be to your advantage as the better you are conditioned for exercise the more efficient you become. Here is a chart showing the rates for the calories you will burn taking into account your weight and pace .

Calories Burned in Twenty Minutes of The Most Basic of Movements Walking, Jogging and Running.

I give this information because it is in the end the choice for me and the easiest for you you get into.

There are lots of sources online that will give you the caloric values related to other forms of exercise/activity.

Not  a Lot of Obesity Here.

Boy you can say that again. I’m in the middle of a community that defies the odds and the statistics of the epidemic of obesity  in this country. Amazingly the majority of the people here are active and healthy. They seem very happy as a bunch. Oh by the way I am in a retirement community visiting with relatives for the holidays.

Yes that’s right the people here on the whole  are quite fit even though there average age is probably in the low seventies. This is not because there is something magic in the water here. It’s not because of some genetic gift it is more likely a  dedication to making the choices that kept them fit.

You see the reason that this community is more trim and fit on average than say a population of 40 and 50 year olds is because the overweight who were their contemporaries just didn’t make it. That’s right they’re dead. They are dead and gone and missing Holiday get togethers they didn’t have to miss. 

I was prompted to ring the alarm bell because I was struck by the fitness level throughout this community and I was missing some loved ones who might be here if they had gotten the message. Stay trim and fit and you get to grow old and enjoy loved ones for a lot longer.

The other thing that prompted me sound the alarm was the recent release by the people at the National Health Institute of this sobbering statistic  for every extra 7 pounds you weigh over your ideal weight you are 11% more likely to have a heart attack. Yes that means that if you are 21 pounds overweight you are 1/3 more likely to have a heart attack than if you weighed what you should.

Heart attacks are still the number one killer of Americans. They are still the casue of a lot of missed chances to celebrate the holidays with loved ones. I don’t want to miss those times and I wish some of my departed loved one’s weren’t missing them now.

I didn’t mean to upset you I just wanted to take advantage of this happy time of year to remind you that whether you do or you don’t have as many of these celebrations ahead of you as you would like to have is largely up to you. 

Give yourself a renewed dedication to a long and healthy life for  the Holidays.

 Give yourself a renewed dedication to your health and fitness for Christmas and a chance to grow old.

Here are a dozen tips for you:

These are for you to use in your weight loss program this New Year. There are so many things that help. This list is really geared more to your proper digestion which is very important to good weight management. When your body gets the nutrients it needs it is a much better ally in your effort to find A Thinner You.

• slow and thorough chewing starts the process. Digestion starts in the mouth with saliva so take your time here you also give time to your system to know you are eating and getting enough food.
• I know it’s hard when you are rushing around in the morning to do this but try. squeeze some juice of a lemon(concentrate is fine) into a glass of tepid  water first thing make sure you do this at least 20 minutes before your breakfast. hard I know and if you can’t do this one it’s ok maybe do it when you can.
• start your day with a hearty breakfast. You can challenge your digestive system a little then since it has had it’s longest stretch without work this sets you up for a great day. make sure that you have the largest share be protein a little fat and if you want sweet have fruit stay away from the frosted flakes
• be sure to take a few seconds to breathe and relax before you begin your meal eating when you are preoccupied and stressed is disruptive to good digestion
• eat a wide variety of foods man does cannot live on broccoli alone  even superfoods like salmon, broccoli,blueberries need to be alternated we are blessed with great multitudes of veggies try some ones you haven’t had before. If ever there was a meal that should be  low carb eating event this is it.
• get help from live enzymes found in raw and lightly cooked foods nuts are great in moderation and vegetable crudites too !
• I have  powdered greens once or twice a week to make sure I am getting avery broad range of nutrients
• play the color game I did this with my kids when they were young we tried to recap the different colors of the foods we had eaten that day when I could hear the recital of colors I knew they were getting what they needed



• listen to your body give it what it wants in the healthy version. Crave sweets go fruit in a meat mood chicken is great turkey too red meat now and again is ok think fish when you feel a burger rush it will satisfy that craving

• drink lots of water as part of your regular weight management but not in large quantities just before or after your meals thsi is a time for your stomach’s digestive juces to do their job. They need to be in high enough concentration to break down your food for your nutrient absorption to be optimal.
• spend a little effort to make every time you eat a pleasing multi sensual event to the other senses too. Your digestive process starts before your food even enters your mouth sound as in the sizzle of bacon or sight of food gets it going remember Pavlov’s dog a bell got him going.
• lastly some have recently dismissed the idea of no eating three hours before bed and others say it still is good advice. I am in the middle on this one I think that a piece of fruit or even a small piece of dark chocolate are fine up to about one hour before shut eye.

Recently I have had the chance to talk with some weight loss winners. Their success stories included  a secret weapon in the battle against the bulge. Their secret weapon? Cookies ! The Dr. Siegal’s weight loss diet has been around for a while but is now getting some attention in the press. Curious? You can click on the box to go directly to Dr Seigal’s very informative site.

The diet is basically an appetite reduction program leading to what some might say is dramatic caloric intake reduction. This as we all need to know is in the end a necessary ingredient in any lasting weight loss program. Usually I recommend a slower approach with somewhat less of a caloric reduction than the fast weight loss that some get from the appetite reduction benefit of the doctor’s cookie diet. What the Dr Siegal’s weight loss cookie diet does is use a specially formulated recipe with his proprietary blend of amino acids. You can click on the banner for Dr Siegal’s pitch for his cookies. For most weight loss coaches the weight loss if the cookie diet recommendations are adhered to is just too fast and you will have some difficulty maintaining your weight loss if you don’t make the necessary lifestyle changes that must accompany every weight loss success story. As I have cautioned in reviewing other weight loss aids like colon cleansing or acai these are aids,tools not the answer. Dr Sanford Siegal is on to something with his weight loss cookies.

Aging Is Not an Acceptable Excuse for Gaining Unhealthy Pounds

There’s no doubt about the fact that the body changes as we age and fat cells is stored in places that we didn’t have to worry about when we were younger.

The body’s regulator our metabolism slows down and the food processing system doesn’t work as well as it should.

Hormone changes in the body can also impact the shape that you are in but there is one thing that always remains the same at all times in our lives - If you consume too much food and drink or have too much alcohol you will surely add hard to lose pounds.

Many people use their age as an excuse for being too heavy but this fact is not acceptable. Consider if you will how many older folks there are who are still slim, fit and healthy and you will see that aging is not an acceptable excuse.

Lifestyles create the body we have to live with and the effects of poor choices are multiplied as we get older because the less than optimal treatment that we have been giving our body through poor food choices throughout our life accumulates with swollen fat cells and other health related problems due to poor nutrition.

You can and should expect to keep your fat percentage at an optimum level for your entirelife. The health benefits from doing so will pay dividends with a better quality of life and far less depending on medication and other health life span, no matter how old you are you can get great benefit from superior well conceived nutrition and regular, moderate exercise.

Anything that will reduce the too high levels in your body fat will assist in helping you to live longer and to enjoy it more.

Getting started on an exercise program and taking care to improve your nutrition is the best way to turn back the body clock and it is never too late to start winding back the years. Obviously the sooner you start the better but getting started is the essential ingredient that you need right now.

Finally, a personal note from a weight loss coach who has seen a lot of before and afters. Of course they always look better but the thing you should know is they feel so much better. The outlook when you take off that unhealthy fat is completely adjusted upward and onward. Get to it let go the pain of fat.

Small Steps You Take One Step at a Time Gets the Job of Weight Loss Done !

Start small you will get there

The ironic problem with cutting back your intake of food too much is the fact that it slows down your metabolism and in doing so it makes it all the more of a challenge to sustain weight loss.

This is one of the important reasons why it is suggested that you don’t cut back your caloric intake by an excessive amount on a day to day basis if you want to keep losing the weight over the long-term.

On the other hand when you have too many calories over and above the energy demands of your body then these calories will be stored as fat.

You understand by the last two sentences that it is critically important for you to get your calorie intake levels right if you are to lose weight.

Your daily calorie requirement depends on a number of varied factors including your weight, your age, gender and your way of life as a more active person will need more caloric intake due to the fact that they will be burning more in the course of the day.

Typically every pound of your body weight represents approximately 3500 calories. Therefore, based, to lose 1 pound you will need to reduce your calorie intake by 3500 calories.

On diet alone, you can see how it will be very difficult to lose a pound a day unless of course you already have a considerable calorie intake and the reduction will still leave you with enough food and proper nutrition to remain in good health.

Supplements will definitely help to make up for any nutritional deficiencies a good part of the time.

By cutting back on your caloric intake by only one hundred calories per day over a period of twelve months you would have consumed 36,500 less calories and that converts to a weight reduction of almost 11 pounds.

That is an easy to have accomplished weight reduction with very small adjustment to your life and habits.

When one breaks down the seemingly daunting effort of taking off that extra weight into the small parts it seems much less a challenge and it is simply a matter of small steps one following the other. this of course should serve to encourage you to get started !

Question, What Makes Us Eat As We Do ?

You are probably way ahead of me on this one. It starts long before we are making decisions for ourselves.

There are lots of variables that determine which foods we choose to have and these decisions begin right from childhood.

to start with the different things we eat as a kid are determined by the family environment and also by the other children we mix with at school.

Kids will adopt terrible eating habits from their parents and they will naturally begin to choose the same types of foods as their parents simply because that is what they are used to eating. If that food has little nutritional value then the never ending need to feed the hunger will ensue and gradually over time the percentage of body fat will increase.

Consider all the foods and drinks that you have now and whether you naturally enjoyed eating or drinking them the first time you experienced them.

How many young people don’t like the taste of alcoholic drinks when they first try them only to consume vast quantities later in life? They have become accustomed to the taste and over time anyone can change their eating and drinking habits according to their environment and choices.

Just take a look at all the varieties of foods that are eaten throughout the world by different nationalities of people. If you were to live in another place it is very likely that your consumption habits would be very different to what they are now.

The good news is you can reverse bad eating habits by eating foods that are better for your health and in doing so you will become more accustomed to eating those foods and prefer them to the foods that have caused the weight problems in the first place.

The hunger won’t be there and the need to have large amounts of food will be gone because you will be getting sufficient nutrition while eating a reasonable amount of food.

You feel more satisfied more of the time and that is something that most heavy people are constantly working to achieve but never managing even by eating gigantic amounts of food.

Be Well be happy

Your Food and Beverage Consumption Is of the Utmost Importance

There is no doubt that special diets have their place in the world of weight loss dieting. However ther is something that tends to get forgotten when we use these approaches.

The number calories that you eat on a each day will determine whether you add pounds or lose weight and this is one of the most important aspects of any weight loss program that you decide to go on.

Interrogatories have been taken where overweight people believed they were eating no more food than other people they associated with who were considerably slimmer than them.

The overnourished people were under the false impression that the reason why they were heavier and gaining weight was due to their body’s metabolism.

When keeping track of their food consumption over a specified period of time it was shown that they were actually consuming more calories and it had nothing to do with their metabolism but rather their choice of food and the quantities they were eating.

You only need to reduce your calorie intake by 100 calories per day to make a substantial effect on your weight over the period of the year.

This is a very easy goal for almost everyone and it is not too hard to reduce by that quantity, however many of the weight loss programs are recommending much more reduction in calories making it very difficult to maintain and as a result of this many people are failing to achieve what they start out to do. At A Thinner You we want you to understand the slow and steady pace is really the way to go for lasting success.

Now when you combine the fact that you solely need to reduce calories by that much, with additional help of vitamins and minerals that can help your overall health, you can see how you can stay nutritionally balanced throughout the whole weight loss process and not feel as though you are starving yourself.

For many people just knowing that the hurdle is not so great, and that there are suitable supplements to assist them, is enough to ensure that they can start and maintain a good weight loss program.

The “two punch” supplementation that some are using to shed pounds.

A popular idea out there lately is to combine two supplements gaining popularity as a one- two weight loss punch. Since you can test it without spending any money. I have included here free trial links for the products. Some say they have delivered good fast results. These are both good products but you must remember weight loss needs more than just these. Don’t be tempted to think these and these alone will do the trick. They won’t. The traditional approaches of lo-cal and or lo-carb with a moderate increase in activity, mindful eating and food awareness are what has been the true answer for my clients. I am really just making quick mention of these as a combination aid to those other habits you must develop to achieve healthy lasting weight loss and because many are asking if this is esay way out they pray for.

The two products people are using together, are Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula and Bowtrol Colon Cleanse. These links take you to free trial offers.

I am a big fan of both regular bowel cleanses especially in our toxic environments. Additionally as I have written on this blog and my weight loss coaching site my research on Acai berry has me convinced that as Dr. Perricone and others say it is a superfood. However,  I say this with a caution. Please don’t stop at supplements. They often as this case are good aids but  too many will be tempted to think these and these alone are all they need. Don’t be one of them. When the supplement that comes out that does the whole job of weight loss for you in the proper fashion I will be the first to scream it from the mountain. These are good they are just not the whole answer. That said here are the links to the free trails. Good tools not the whole answer !

BOWTROL COLON CLEANSE

Bowtrol is an all natural herbal colon cleansing treatment that has changed thousands of people’s lives through our effective internal cleansing. Bowtrol was also designed for people suffering from constipation and maximizes colon health. Bowtrol maximizes one’s elimination without causing loose stool or uncomfortable cramping via frequent healthy bowel movements while assisting in cleansing the vital organs and lymphatic system.

ACAI BERRY WEIGHT LOSS FORMULA

According to Dr. Perricone - "Acai the #1 Superfood "
Harvested by Brazilians for hundreds of years as a food staple and for their rejuvenating and detoxifying properties, Acai berries (fruit of Amazonian Acai Palms) have been all over the media, from articles in fitness magazines to features on popular television programs like 0prah and the Today show, and thousands of people all over the world say that Acai berry products help them live a healthier life that is full of energy and vitality. But we’ve taken Acai Berry one step further. Acai may also assist in eliminating harmful waste, toxins and buildup. By combining Acai extract with a combination of nutrients that help with weight-loss, increasing energy levels, skin antioxidant that helps promote healthier looking skin.

and then there’s this way.

A Few Principles That Will Aid Your Effort to Lose Weight Fast

Don’t be too anxious to fall for the advertising that you see on late-night TV and in many of the magazines that we tend to thumb through on a regular basis. Most of these weight loss programs are going to look good on the outside but on the inside, they are not really going to do you much good as far as your wt loss is concerned.  If you want to know the truth about weight loss, you need to forget all that you have learned up till this point and hear to what I am about to tell you.  I’m not trying to sell you a weight-loss product, I’m simply trying to give you the truth about what is necessary for you to lose weight permanently.

The first thing that you need to do is to exercise on a regular basis.  Many of us have a difficult time fitting it in to our schedule and to be honest, many of us hate to exercise.  It doesn’t have to be something that is done grudgingly, however.  Try walking for just 10 minutes every day or take a stroll with your better half in the evenings.  The fresh air and exercise will do both of you good and a little bit of time away from the television set will actually give you an opportunity to communicate.  As you begin to feel better, you will naturally want to increase the amount of exercise that you are doing.

The second thing that you need to do is to change the way that you look at food.  Instead of living to eat, as many of us do you need to begin to eat to live.  This means that you need to change the way that you eat over time so that you are shifting more towards a healthy lifestyle than towards an overweight lifestyle.  Instead of dramatically cutting things out of your diet to accomplish this, add things into your diet such as raw fruits and vegetables.  Make sure that you eat a green, leafy salad everyday and within just a couple days, your body will actually begin to crave it.  Eventually, these things that you are adding into your diet are going to crowd out the bad things that you have been eating all along.

Finally,the principle that you need to understand about weight loss is education.  You need to learn the truth about weight loss, cleansing and getting your body into the best shape that it can possibly be.  The more you learn about  things, the more you’re going to want to incorporate them into your life.  Be sure that you make these changes gradually, however, and allow them to become part of your regular regime.  If you do this effectively, you will see the weight begin to fall off of you and you will discover that you are the person that you always wanted to be.

Be Well Be Happy

What Are the Benefits of Taking Acai ?  A question being asked often lately. Some have questions regarding side effects of acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee. Are there even any acai berry side effects?  Are there acai berry dangers?  Is acai berry safe? Dr Perricone is an advocate of this plant product supplement to our diets as one of his named "10 Superfoods". Oprah Winfrey is a fan of Acai as a weight loss supplement. Many are considering ordering acai berry supplements in light of these well respected celebrity and well known medical experts’ enthusiasm for the "acai berry perfect food". It is reported that Jennifer Hudson acai berry supplementation has had great positive effect.First for me it’s always primarily about weight loss if it appears in this blog and here it is a winner. If you are already familiar with the wonderful benefits of acai and want a FREE TRIAL CLICK HERE.

The acai berry spoken about by Dr Mehmet Oz responsible for all this good news is found growing on the Acai Palm native to Central and South America. It has long provided it’s benefits to indigenous people of the region. since the acai berry is not good as a fruit consumed as one would other berries my choice for the highest quality, most economical , most convenient way to take advantage of all the good the acai berry offers is in acai berry capsules or acai berry softgels. There is a full range of acai berry products including juice products but for me the juice is too expensive and does not concentrate the acai goodness.
