When starting your at home weight loss program it is important to try and find a schedule you can stick with. When you give yourself specific times and days to workout then you feel more accountable.

When choosing the weight loss program for you, you must make sure that it is safe. A safe diet should include all the recommended daily allowances for vitamins, minerals and proteins. To make sure your diet is safe it is recommended you speak with your doctor first, because if you are lowering your calorie intake you shouldn’t lower your vitamin and mineral intake. You should also discuss with your doctor, before choosing a program, if your desired weight loss goal is realistic and a healthy weight for you. When you lose a drastic amount of weight you can then face serious health risks. A health care provider will be able to tell you how much weight you need to lose and what the best way to go about doing that is.

When considering a weight loss program you should make sure that the staff who is supervising or educating you has experience, education and certification. Gather as much information as possible such as what the program consists of, staff qualifications, what the risks are, how much does it cost and what are the typical participant results. Researching the program can allow you to find reviews on what others have though of the program. If you find not many people have had success or there where many health risks then this is probably not the program for you.

Another thing to look for when choosing a program is that it is slow and steady to your needs. For health reasons you should make sure you are not dropping large amounts of weight weekly. If you are looking into a commercial weight loss program you should have a list of questions handy and ready to assess before starting. Some good thing to look at is how many people complete the program, has anyone had any problems or side affects and if there is a maintenance program that helps you keep the weight off after.

Weight maintenance after your weight loss phase is over is incredibly important. This is why it is good to look for a weight loss program that offers a plan so that you are not gaining back a large amount of the weight you lost. You should be able to improve your dietary habits, increase your amount of physical exercise, and make positive changes in your lifestyle and the habits that can cause weight gain. Weight control is something you should consider for a lifetime and aim to achieve.

We all know and experts agree that the best way to reach your healthy weight loss is to exercise regularly and commit to a sensible eating plan. If a program encourages unhealthy behavior then you should probably stay away from it. There are many people out there who are not certified to help you that are trying to scam you into some “magical pill”. Any program that tells you that you can lose weight and not change your diet and exercise then they are selling a fantasy. If all of your questions can not be answered by the staff then you may want to reevaluate that particular program. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and make sure you consider all your choices seriously.

This first of many weight loss tips might seem like common sense to most but you would be surprised how often people do this. Don’t go grocery shopping when you are hungry! This usually causes you to buy foods that are high in fat and very easy to consume. This doesn’t just include food but also  liquids high in sugars and fat, including alcoholic beverages. The snack foods you do want to purchase are ones that you can have when your on the go. This includes nuts such as almonds, veggies (celery sticks and carrots), and fruits (apples, bananas, and grapefruit). Even air popped fat free popcorn is an excellent snack that is high in fiber and will stop your tummy from growling before your next meal.

Making realistic weight loss goals and making a food and exercise log is one of the best weight loss tips out there. Most people don’t think about what they are putting into their mouth every day so a food diary is a great way to keep track of this. On a new page every day log everything you are eating so you can keep track of your average calorie intake so you can make a connection between excess calories and your weight. Another benefit of a food diary is you can log how you felt that day as far as your energy levels and how full you felt. By looking back at your food journal and how you corresponded with it you can then plan out your future meals. To make realistic weight loss goals is also very important, because we naturally wish to lose a lot of weight ASAP and when that doesn’t happen we get let down. The best thing to do is set reasonable short term goals for yourself that you know you can achieve. With progress and by doing your math over time you can then start thinking about long term weight loss goals.

Make sure to drink 6 to 8 glasses of water a day! It is all around us and still most people do not drink enough water. Instead of drowning your sorrows in food, candy and fatty liquids just try drinking water. Drinking water before meals allows your body to feel that “full feeling”. Water is also the best beauty secret. When drinking enough it washes out all the impurities in your skin allowing you to have a glowing complexion and younger looking skin. Not only does drinking water help your skin but also your muscle tone. When your muscles are dehydrated they do not contract as easily making your workouts less effective.

One of the top best weight loss tips is do not weigh yourself ever day. When you do weigh yourself make sure it is at the same time because your weight fluctuates and you can weigh differently in the morning than at night. Make sure that you are also using the same scale as scales can all be different. Always remember that when weighing yourself there are many things to consider such as food consumed previously, the different clothing you are wearing, and water retention.

All of these are great weight loss tips but once again before making that decision to lose weight make sure you are doing it for yourself. Weight loss increases confidence, reduces health risks, and improves the way you see yourself and how others see you.

I’m looking to hear which diets really work. We are looking for real life success stories from people who have lost weight and kept it off for a minimum of 8 years after the diet.  Please comment and send in your photo’s to prove your results.  Because so far we have only seen programs that get you too lose weight fast for a short period of time and than of course gain it back and more.  Show us your success though only if you have kept it off for a least 5-8 years.

Sure we have clients who workout with us and eat right and learn how to live a healthy life.  We have thousand of success stories regarding this though I want to know if anyone actually been on a diet that has worked this successful for a short period of time like this.

Respond an let us know, because so far our research shows that people who go on Jenny, Weight Watchers, Nutri systems, slim fast, subway diet, taco bell diet, HCG, and all the millions of others out there promising quick fat loss results just put it all back on.  A few of the reasons why the research has show this is because they all put you on basically a low restrictive diet plan that drops weigh fast. What they don’t tell you long term your body can’t maintain this and you will end up gaining it all on.  Unless of course you than change to eating healthy and Exercising.  Though I guess you could of done that to begin with.  It is important for people who do have a life or death situation where they need to lose weigh extremely fast otherwise they could die.  Though I think it’s funny that the only way it works is if you switch to exercise and a healthy diet and lifestyle after that.

Show me your results tell us your story.  We have a contest to see if there is a diet out there that will work?

Celebrities get paid to market products. Celebrities don’t actually even believe in or use themselves but they get paid big money to make it seem like it’s what they use.  The truth is that being a personal trainer to celebrities is that as a personal trainer we kick there butt for 1-4 or more hours per day, and have chef’s and detailed diet plans, as well as a whole staff to get them amazing results.  If we don’t get them amazing results we get fired.  The have a all kinds of hours and reasons to commit to this.  First off it’s there job, they get paid big money, and it helps there fame.   So stop buying into products celebrities recommend.

Colts?

Saints?

tough for me to pick since the Arizona Cardinals are out of the race.  I’m having a tough time deciding so maybe you can help me out.  Either way this Super Bowl could be a real shoot out.

Pick your team and tell me why?saints and would love to see both teams win.  It’s a tough call for me because I think Payton manning is a surgeon when it comes to being a Quarterback though Drew Brees is also a power house and so is there offense.  Help me out and tell me why your picking your team.  I want to hear all the reasons your a fan and why you think your team will win?
