Is reported to include a series of 400-calorie meals that people eat throughout the day, with the promise that they will lose up to 11 pounds in just two weeks. In reality, such weight loss is largely the result of fluid loss, which is a common occurrence when people go on crash or very low calorie diets. Once individuals return to their normal eating habits, the weight returns, and in many cases, extra pounds as well.

2009-11-10 Monmouth County Personal Trainer Issues Top 7 Diet Tip List

Many Americans try to lose weight by following fad diets or depriving themselves of certain food groups. According to Albert, that wont work. Sure you can lose weight on the Atkins diet, but you cant forgo carbs forever, and you shouldnt. Whole grain cars have great vitamins and nutrients. What happens is that when people start eating carbs again, they gain all the weight back. Fad diets dont work, they are a short term solution. Education, simple modifications, and portion control are the keys to long term weight loss.

2009-11-09 New weight loss drugs on the horizon.

This medication incorporates low doses of two previously approved prescription medications: the diet drug phentermine, and topiramate, which is used to treat epilepsy and chronic migraines. Phentermine reduces appetite, and is occassionally used alone to assist with weight loss in the short term (3 months). Topiramate increases the sense of fullness.

In my opinion, there is certainly a role for drug treatment of obesity, and it can be of great help to some people. The key to success is to view drug treatment as a kick start to weight loss, in combination with a permanent alteration of lifestyle habits, primarily geared towards reducing your caloric intake to 500 calories per day less than what you need. (You can calculate your daily caloric requirements at using the Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) Calculator in the right hand column. )

2009-11-27 These tips will help keep holiday weight off The Courier Houma, LA

Going to holiday parties doesnt mean you have to abandon your weight-loss goals. Here, just a little pre-planning goes a long way. For starters, avoid heading out on an empty stomach. Have a small salad, a light yogurt or raw veggies, and have a glass of water beforehand. Youll feel fuller and less likely to overeat once you get to the party. Control portions by sticking to serving sizes of most foods to no larger than the size of your fist or palm of your hand. Enjoy, but set a reasonable limit on alcohol and other high-calorie drinks.

2009-11-19 Pedometers can help weight loss

A pedometer allows you to make quick, beneficial changes, Bravata says. "You can diet like mad, exercise like mad all day long, and tomorrow morning, its unlikely you would have made a significant difference" in your weight, she said. In contrast, if you attach a pedometer to your hip and take a reading of your baseline walking distance, tomorrow you can increase that distance, sometimes significantly.

But it probably should be, says Dena Bravata, a physician and senior research scientist at Stanford who analyzed 26 studies of pedometer use and found clear evidence that people who have them get more exercise, lose weight and lower their blood pressure. In fact, the decrease in blood pressure was equivalent to results achieved through much more expensive interventions that involve doctors and pharmacists, she said. And in a relatively short time, many people were able to lower their body mass index enough to move from the "obese" to "overweight" category.
