Lose Weight With A Food Diary

a food diary can help you eat better. Often writing down everything you eat means you end up eating less. Several studies have confirmed that keeping a food diary helps you lose weight.

here's a simple food log you can use - either print it off as a PDF or download it as an Excel file.

Also check out our weight loss supplements.

Dieting And Flu

A study has found that dieting in winter when flu levels are high is not a good idea as it makes you ore susceptible to the flu virus because it lowers your immune system. This is bad news at least for those in the northern hemisphere because January is the classic time to start dieting – new year’s resolutions and all that.

But don't despair - take this info to heart and become a smart weight loser.

Quick Tips For Managing Your Food Intake Over The Holiday Season

Eat Slower To Eat Less
Wolfing down meals may be enough to nearly double a person's risk of being overweight according to Japanese research suggests. Put you fork down between mouthfuls. Put your sandwich back on your plate between mouthfuls. Thin people often do this automatically. The rest of us have to learn it.

Snacks
Keep healthy snacks at the front of the fridge or cupboard. Put unhealthy snacks at the back of the cupboard or fridge. Put them in plain dark containers. Snack from a plate, not the packet -- it is easy to feel you should finish the packet. Put what you need on a plate, and put the rest of the pack out of sight.

Party Eating & Drinking
When you go to a party, socialise away from the area where the food and drink are. That way you are likely to eat and drink less and enjoy the party more.

Clean Your Teeth More
Keep a toothbrush handy and clean your teeth with a strong minty toothpaste. This can help reduce your need for sweet food.

Drink More Water
Water fills you up and makes you feel less hungry.

Don't Give Up!
Eaten food you shouldn't? That doesn't make you a bad or weak person. Just accept what's happened and get back to eating healthily.

Get Some Help
Self-hypnosis CDs can help the will power and herb and mineral supplements can help dramatically reduce cravings. It may be too late now to get these in place for the holiday season, but get yourself organized to have that bit of extra support in the new year. Will power is not always enough. If that’s the way you’ve tried in the past and failed, get some help and check out our great products that can help you control your eating. All come with a 60-day money-back guarantee.

Happy holidays :-)

Are You A woman With Hair Loss?

Are you one of the many women who is concerned about hair loss?

Do you suffer from hair thinning that doesn’t occur in patches but occurs across the whole scalp, possibly with shorter hairs present at the hairline?

You may be suffering from chronic telogen effluvium.

This is particularly likely if you suffer from heavy periods which deplete your iron stores, or if you are a vegetarian who doesn’t eat enough foods with iron and/or vitamin B12 in them.

Try our supplement Iron + Vitamin C + L-lysine + Vitamin B12

This supplement will not help you if you are suffering from alopaecia where you lose your hair in patches, or if the hair loss is just noticeable on the top of your head (so that a central parting looks wider than it should be).

Otherwise give it a try!

Thanksgiving Weight Loss

More good thoughts from Kim Lyons, BS, CPT, Best-selling author of Your Body, Your Life, Co-trainer on The Biggest Loser, Your Fast Track to Fat Loss Coach

Too many people mess up once and then think their entire diet is ruined.They feel as if everything they've done prior to that day was wasted andthere's no sense going on.

Or even worse, they rationalize to themselves, "Well, I already cheated, so it doesn't matter now, I might as well keep pigging out."

That's nonsense. If you threw in the towel every time you didn't score100% on your diet, most people would never get through more than a few days on any structured program.

Just because you mess up once doesn't mean you should quit! You're only human. Don't let one small slip keep you derailed.

When you've strayed from the plan, enjoy it, don't let guilt and discouragement get you down. Firmly plant your wheels back on the tracks and start rolling again. Deal?

Here's my suggested plan for Thanksgiving dinner or any other special holiday occasion or event coming up:

a.) be a little more active and have a little bit smaller portions the day prior and all the way up to your special meal.

b.) make simple, healthier changes to the foods you love , so that you can enjoy the meal, but in modified, healthier versions.

c.) eat until comfortably full and satisfied, not stuffed.

d.) get right back on track the very next morning.

If you plan these 4 steps a head of time and have the right mindset going into it, you can really enjoy your special meal without sabotaging your progress.

Fed Up With Muesli?

If you're fed up with muesli or just don't like it, try Alara Organic Active. Its truly wonderful - it's gluten free too if that's important to you.

It's a mix of quinoa, amaranth, apple and prebiotic yacon. Fantastic.

I've just been on their site and they've won lots of awards and have great business principles. Do take a look.

I've just noticed you can even make your own muesli by choosing from a list of 60 ingredients and telling them the proportion - bespoke muesli wow!

Stay Positive In The Credit Crunch

Radio, TV and the newspapers inundate you daily with more depressing news about the global economy. It can be difficult to stay positive and focussed and not let all the depressing news get you down.

So if you find yourself more affected than you would like to be, try Alaskan Essence Guardian. Guardian reminds us that protection comes from within us. It protects us from negative energies, by helping us keep strong healthy boundaries, keeping us grounded and connecting us to our inner light so we can project this out instead of absorbing energies that don’t serve us.

Acne Remedy Particularly For Teenage Boys

Have you got a teenager in your household who suffers from acne? Embarrassing, depressing, confidence sapping.

I’ve recommended Zinc Citrate to loads of mums and they almost always tell me that it worked really well.

It’s particularly appropriate for boys with acne – semenal fluid contains a lot of zinc and teenage boys often produce a lot of that, so can be more prone to acne for this reason. You may not want to quite discuss it in these terms with your sons!

Just buy them a pot to try.

Lots of women are short of zinc too – can help with PMS, mood swings and all that stuff.

Help For PMS / PMT

PMS, PMT, premenstrual syndrome whatver you call it it spells misery for many women, their partners and their children.

A study has found that 84% of UK women suffer from premenstrual syndrome (PMS). What a dreadful figure!

Many years ago I suffered very badly from PMS, and it completely dominated my life. Every month was divided up like this:

7 days of PMS – bloating, tiredness, self-hatred, extreme irritability etc.
7 days of remorse for all the horrible things I’d said and done while under the influence of my hormones
7 days of feeling OK
7 days of feeling apprehensive about the time for PMS coming round again

So what can be done about PMS? Read my article on PMS and find out.

Holiday Fat Loss Survival

Here's some well-timed thoughts from Kim Lyons of Fast Track to Fat Loss.

First key point to remember: you can and should enjoy the holidays. You can enjoy being with family and going out with friends. You can go to holiday parties and have fun.

You can enjoy a few "naughty" meals. You can have some cake and a glass
or two of wine. There's no reason why you can't enjoy yourself AND stay healthy, lean and fit through the holidays. All it takes is some planning, goal-setting, a positive mindset, and little dose of good old-fashioned discipline.

Here's the first of 10 ways that you can follow your nutrition plan and stay in great shape over the holidays without turning into a miserable Scrooge. If you follow this advice, you'll be one of the proud few with a New Year's resolution to be the best you've ever been in 2009 - instead of one of the guilt-ridden many who resolve to reclaim what they lost in 2008.

Ready? Here we go...

#1. Expect to stay on your program over the holidays.
"If you fail to plan, you plan to fail" is a time-worn and cliched statement, but it's still some of the best success advice you will ever hear.

Not only do most people fail to plan, they consciously plan to fail over the holidays. Most people expect to "blow" their diet and skip workouts.They expect to eat more, to exercise less and to gain weight. As a result, they don't even make the effort.

Instead of taking control, they resign themselves to "maintenance" at best,or back-sliding at worst. This negative expectancy leads to a self-fulfilling prophecy. By the first week of January, they're in the worst shape they've been in for a year and they frantically make New Year's resolutions to shed the excess fat they've gained.

You can avoid this trap by planning to succeed. Set up a positive expectation. Resolve now that you will not tolerate slipping backwards. Keep your standards up and don't settle! Not only can you plan to "stay in shape"over the holidays, you can plan to improve! All you have to do is make the decision and expect success.

Colorectal Cancer And Meat Eating

Information from www.pcrm.org:

A recent study from the Ontario Family Colorectal Cancer Registry, established by the U.S. National Cancer Institute, compared the diets of people who had been diagnosed with colorectal cancer to the diets of people who did not have cancer. It turned out that those who ate the most red meat had a 67 percent higher risk of colorectal cancer, regardless of any genetic factors they may have had.

However, some people with specific genes had a much higher risk from meat-eating—up to four times the cancer risk—compared to people who avoid meat.

Every year, 160,000 Americans are diagnosed with colorectal cancer. About half of all cases are already incurable when they are found.

Cotterchio M, Boucher BA, Manno M, Gallinger S, Okey AB, Harper PA. Red meat intake, doneness, polymorphisms in genes that encode carcinogen-metabolizing enzymes, and colorectal cancer risk. Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers and Prevention. 2008;17:3098-3107.
