Murphy's Law And Fighting Guilt 2008-02-18 22:08:00 Murphy's law superglues itself to dieting. Somehow no matter how hard you try, your "gob" will park itself at McDonalds and become the residence to the evil drink. Followed by you forgetting McDonalds even have salads (I know, who knew) and order a Big Mac combo instead. Finally winding up upsizing to a large for no apparent reason. Losing weight is about working past obstacles, those who succeed, will lose weight and those who fall will left behind as a Fattie Boom Boom.Repeat with me. "Guilt!" Now in a low voice, "Guilt!" In whale, "Gilllllll-ooooot!" Get it out of your system. That will be the last time you feel whatever that thing was that you shall not feel anymore.Binging makes you feel guilty which is (logically) combatted by eating more food for some innate rationale to get rid of Read more:Fighting

Sizzling Sunflower Seeds 2008-02-15 22:33:00 Scorching all other beans, nuts and seeds in it's path for nutrient glory, these formentioned beauties are a winner in all respects of weight loss. Are you getting enough nutrients or sunflower seed (kernels), is a question that is not asked enough nor specifically for those desiring to losing weight and/or building muscle.Minerals and Vitamins 101 should be a compulsory class for all students all throughout the world. Everybody should have a tatoo on their hand saying "Have you had your Five Plus A Day today?" No matter how many crunches you do, meals skipped or fad diets, without those disguised miracles in your diet you will never be able to maintain that dream weight. As it should happen, sunflower seeds is a "god of nutrients" full of fat burning, energy boosting and muscle building, Read more:Sunflower
Fibre Or Fiber 2008-02-14 18:26:00 However you decide to spell it, this is another vital nutrient (din-din---), in the fight for being a Fattie Boom Boom No More.Feeling fuller is crucial in the battle against Super-Sugar and his sidekick Mega-Fat. Fiber
achieves this satisfaction and allows this lovely state of mind to to be maintained longer. Junkfood is always used as an escape goat and when it's not the crap, it's not enough exercise. Whilst these contribue, lack of nutrition realistically is more likely a deeper reason for an epidemic of obesity and an over-weight society. An excellent example is fiber, we require 25 grams per day as per our recommended dietary intake. This is anything but true for the vast majority of the western world, consuming closer to 10-15 grams per day. Could doubling your intake of fiber be th
Freaky Food Facts 2008-02-07 02:53:00 Exposing the truth, spreading knowledge is what I just love to do (with a half-assed grin) :] Building up those pages in the brain encyclopedia on weight loss is imperative whether or not, those words of wisdom are ever used."You would have to walk for seven hours straight to burn off a Super Sized Coke, fry and Big Mac" - Sean McFadden of IrishFit."A typical indian meal consisting of two poppadoms, chicken korma and pilau rice will set you back a staggering 81g fat and 1223 calories!!" - BunnyCd, member of MiniMins."According to the Cash survey, a family of four sharing a Pizza Hut meal deal - consisting of one Cheesy Bites Meat Feast, one medium Super Supreme, a portion of garlic bread, a portion of potato wedges, chicken wings, and a cheesecake dessert - could eat 12.3g of salt each" - Read more:Freaky
Puppies to Dogs 2008-02-05 19:59:00 Referred to none other than their puppies, well built athletes like to call their arm muscles such. Today those puppies are growing up.Crazyness will get you nowhere in life and the same with muscles building. Bench pressing stresses the muscle tissue beyond its tolerance and creates fatigue in the body. Dumbell weights however have greater accessibility and unlike gym memberships do not have vicious price tags that rival a low-class motor vehicle. Dumbells seem straightforward enough, but there is more than meets the eye. Technical stuff-f-f: Biceps (front of arm) allow us to pull (lift a dumbell towards our shoulder). Triceps (back of arm) allow us to push (relieve the pulling and drop the dumbell to our sides). We want an exercise that workouts both of these because one without the othe

are fountains, flowing iron like a waterfall flows water. Iron is essential for a wide variety of functions (from the immune system to growth) in the body. Muscle growth is dependant upon iron intake because it reacts with hemoglobin in the bloodstream which allow oxygen transportation. Need not I iterate how important muscle building is in weight loss, see here, here and (oh yeah), here. Insufficient oxygen will deprive your muscles energy need to workout and peformance will suffer significantly. Short and sweet of it. Lower quality and shorter workouts will burn less calories.Naturally these bush huggers are healthy and delicious. Be warned, corporations piggy-b Read more:Writer
Conga, Chicken Dance and Can-Can 2008-02-02 23:09:00 Dancing is for those who want to lose weight but don't want to rip their hair out achieving that. For those who want to feel full of excitement like bubbly boiled water not a picturesque placid lake after exercise. For those who have tried and tried (to wind up nowhere). This is a continuation of the recently started dance series, for part one go here."Any type of rhythmic movement will benefit you in terms of muscular, respiratory and cardiovascular fitness. It is also good for increasing stamina levels, posture and movement control" - Woman Junction. Evidentally a good reason to dance and kick flab in the ass.Conga (line)Originating in Latin-American carnivals, this entertaining chain-line-dance was designed to involve everybody, young or old, skinny or fat, and tall or short.

Getting Beany, Nutty and Seedy 2008-02-02 20:56:00 Snacking is likely the second reason diets fail after binging. Beans, nuts and seeds are a healthtastic snack. Low-to-medium calorie, enriched with essential vitamins, minerals and substances.Quick 411 on nutritional benefits:Sunflower seeds are minefields, bountiful in calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese and selenium. Swallow that mouthful because we're just getting started, vitamin A, vitamin C, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin b6, vitamin B12, vitamin E, vitamin k and folate, all too are packed into this seductive seed.Almonds pack a close hit to sunflower seeds minus the vitamin C. Almonds are however high in sugar compared to to other alternatives so these are recommended as treat snacks. Energy for exercise this are the best nuts (hehe).Cashew Read more:Nutty

ing with the complexities, I realised that they would be the PERFECT to do the reverse. Extravagant at first thought, but think again. Is it really?Love it or hate it! The maths:Build muscles = Increased weight = Increased energy burntBuild muscles + Balanced diet = Weight loss + Yah!As explained in my post on building muscle to lose weight, the heavier you are, the more energy you use. Wearing a weight suit removes the building muscle part from the equation, making it all into one step. Wear the suit and you will lose weight in theory (with a reasonably balanced diet), or at the minimum stabilize your weight. Booty bonus time: As luck would have it, any weigh Read more:Nutty

Tofu Makes People Fat! 2008-01-29 17:39:00 Vegetarian and all, I am supposed to endorse tofu. Promote how it's highly enriched in vitamins and minerals, low caloric and has a low glycemic index but I will not be a sheep. Tofu tastes like crap.Don't take my word for it. Take "I might say that tofu tastes like crap, but that wouldn't be accurate; tofu tastes like nothing...". Maybe "tofu tastes like shit!...". Maybe not. How about "tofu tastes like rancid bread dough...". Taking the cake though, "well tofu tastes like grass dipped in dog crap coated with Mustard...", love the use of bluntness.Tofu makes people fat! That's right. I said it.People stereotype 'eating right' as eating two stalks of brocolli with a shot of wheat grass for breakfast, a small salad for lunch and a tofu tuna salad for dinner. Recommendation of tofu and a lik

Vegetarian Complications 2008-01-25 00:49:00 Philosophy would dictate that nothing is simple and everything has complications. Vegetarian
ism obedient as a hostage complies with this hypothesis.Stage 1: Pescatarianism"...those who abstain from eating all meat and animal flesh with the exception of fish" - About.com. Going pescatarian is best for those who do not have ethical or other beliefs on eating but want to be healthier (and not fat). Resultantly this diet will have you eating substantially more vegetables and fruit which will increase consumption of vitamins and minerals. Leading to a powered up metabolism to boot and supercharged battery (lingo conversion: you will feel more energetic). It will kick that fat in the ass (literally and metaphorically). Stage 2: VegetarianismWhat I have been for the last year and personally recom
Swimming with the Fishes 2008-01-24 17:59:00 Taste, if you can survive it and are not on a save the species diet, fish could be a fabulous way to attack the fat.Rich in omega-3 and a natural source, fish are fantastic. Don't be scared! Oil ridden these critters might be, but fattening they are not. Unless scrambling your brain, and eating fried Catfish, Sablefish, Pompano or Atlantic Mackerel, is common practise for you, the fatty fish myth would be real. Saturated in vitamins, these will help maintain a balanced diet.Protein packed, muscle building will be made easy. Needless to say what that will do, I'll say it anyway. Fat will be burnt and your metabolism will be raised. Research on protein has found that it aids in the consumption of fat in the liver and creates a "thermic" effect increasing metabolism.Far from chocolate cake, b Read more:Fishes

The Rough Raw Food Diet 2008-01-22 23:00:00 Sickly or scrumptious? You choose.Less carbohydrates... no carbohydrates... more fat... less fat... are common requisites of diets. Painful but possible. However the raw food diet will soften sandpaper to silk, rough is nothing more than an adept alliteration (I'm good, I know). Recommendation of such a diet would be Satanic, thus this is nothing more than a mention of the evil extremes of dieting. "Fresh fruits and vegetables, Nuts, Seeds, Beans, Grains, Legumes, Dried fruit, Seaweed, Unprocessed organic or natural foods, Freshly juiced fruit and vegetables, Purified water [and] Young coconut milk"And that's it, says Cathy Wong of About.com. Not a whole lot more to explain. Be brilliant, break and bend the rules. Experimentation and a little magic will make this diet work. Examples Read more:Rough
Maganese & The Magic Metals 2008-01-22 00:40:00 Recently on Fattie Boom Boom No More. Fattie Boom Boom posted a whole "lotta crap" (aka Lose Weight by Watching TV, Crunching the Numbers and Beyond the Square. Gain It to Lose It). But it was not all bad. Glimmering, sparks flew in all directions, an idea struck. So now in the process, is a post with facts* (woaaaah). And well thats about it. *Facts solely based on science."Manganese helps regulate fat metabolism and blood-glucose. It is needed for a healthy thyroid function which itself is essential to maintain a healthy weight. Good food sources of manganese include: tea, wheatgerm, spinach, split peas, nuts, oatgerm, oatmeal, pineapple, green leafy vegetables."Calcium too likes to murder fat as well.

Crunching The Numbers 2008-01-21 19:18:00 Dreadful as it might be, we all have to bear that one number. How much we weigh.Self inspection by simply looking up down upon yourself will not cut it. Get on those scales. Record the weight and date. Toss two dice (don't think, just do it). Congratulations! That number is now how many days until you must weight yourself. Surprises are fun! Your mission. Lose weight by the next number crunch. Half a pound, a kilogram, a stone even, will all do. Any weight loss is a win. None is a draw and well what we prefer not to speak of is a loss. Weight loss is about dealing with the unexpected. Make challenges for yourself not goals.Life is a battlefield. A game. Feed your curiosity cravings, add an element of surprise and a sense of fun to losing weight. Keep tossing those dice and you will keep lo Read more:Numbers

Try it now. Don't forget to walk back. (I am a genius, no need to tell me). Pow! Ten calories burnt. Whenever you're bored, been on the computer or watching television for more than half an hour, get up. Keep the blood circulating. Here's where the magic comes in. Do this ten times and...Pow!..

Waddle, Walk Or Wander To Work 2008-01-17 04:42:00 Whatever works for you. Walking is a classic case, ending in you asking how did I not lose weight?. Unfortunately it won't prevent an early nail in the coffin either. Building muscles is out of the picture. In fact walking really doesn't much. Maintain a moderate state of fitness. Yes.When your unfit it is hard to find the motivation to do activities requiring moderate fitness. Making weight loss another mile further into the horizon. "I work 37 miles from home, you fricken expect me to walk?" No need to get hissy here. Drive 36 miles (and walk the last mile). "I don't have the time!" Gosh, there's just no pleasing you. Prioritise! If you can pickup a Coke or expresso on the way, you can make time for exercise. Might pay to try something low-caffiene as well.RunJumpScooterSwalomCycleRoller Read more:Wander
Are You Getting Enough? 2008-01-16 18:19:00 Photo courtesy Start Up StudentsFancy a little excitement?! Are you tired before you have even set out for work? Ripping your hair out with boredom? If your answer is yes to any of the above, you may need a vitamin (or mineral) supplement. Ecstasy is beckoning. Feel the energy.Maybe your feeling blue? Without a well balanced diet, you easily could be. Even if you're not, an additional supplement to your diet will definitely boost your mood (zinc and magnesium are the best). Vitamin deficiencies are an epidemic. Don't let yourself be a victim. Feel good and have the motivation to fight the flab.Packing a punch, these puppies will do more than just reignite an old spark. Increased metabolism is a certain assurance. Vitamins B and minerals help the body burn energy. In fact all vitamins do, v Read more:Enough
Have a Rest, You Deserve It 2008-01-16 03:38:00 Recharging your battery longer can play a crucial role in weight loss.In Obesity Reviews, a study by Michael Sivak, researcher for University of Michigan, found increasing your sleep by one hour could reduce energy intake by six percent. Journeying to the land of the Wallabee, 7900 miles west, an Australian study of patients after weight loss surgery found weight loss aided in improving the quality of sleep. Up to 90% of patients with insufficient sleep symptons ceased with the weight loss. A good night's sleep, means more sleep and less fat.Remember the days, when you had a bedtime. With a little magic, bring that memory back to life and set in concrete when you have to go to bed. "I don't want to!" How that brings up memories as well. Now don't complain, how about we make a compromise. O
Lose Weight By Watching TV 2008-01-15 23:24:00 Put the 'E' back in weight loss. Enjoyment and exercise can be friends."It doesn't take a dummy to work this one out. Do exercise while you watch tv, and hey presto! Fighting the flab is made fun", you say. If this was the case, we both know you wouldn't be reading this blog.Watching
tv and exercising is not really fun. Concentration on the tv is replaced with ensuring you don't miss a step on the treadmill. It moves to the exercise. A few changes need to be made. Sit down and relax while you watch tv. When the commercials come on, put 100% in (no such thing as 110%, that's just silly) and pump those muscles. Stop! Take a rest. Watch some tv. Commercials again, start pumping those muscles. Stop! Take another rest. It seems so simple, it is. Enjoying the best of both worlds is possible but Read more:Weight
Five Plus A Day 2008-01-15 22:08:00 An innovative Kiwi idea. Eat five or more hand sized portions of fruit or vegetables is the goal of this nutritional diet concept. Nothing else to it.No diet restricting regimes, fatiguing fitness plans or silly shakes. Why it works. Junkfood is replaced with fruit and vegetables to ensure your goal is met each day. Packed full of vitamins and minerals, metabolism boosters, you will burn more energy as well. With a low glycemic index, these beauties will keep you going strong all day.Five is a small number (compared to a billion for instance). Packing five servings into your day however can be demanding. Start each day by slicing up fruit to put on your cereal, or make a fruit (or vege) smoothie. Bring an apple, a carrot even, to work. Salad is vital for vegetables, have some on the side w
How Not To Lose Weight 2008-01-12 16:34:00 A guide on how not to lose weight to help you lose weight.Walking and "15 minutes is all it takes" is crap. Neither will this burn calories you have eaten effectively nor will it burn any stored fat. To expend body fat, your pulse must be 70% (of maximum heart rate). Walking will not achieve that pulse rate.Exercise is all you need to lose weight. Yeah, and if you just keep filling a balloon with air it won't pop. Keep eating, keep getting fatter. Regular exercise will as well trigger evolutionary instincts, need energy to burn energy and in coordination your body will desire more. More energy, less burnt energy. Reversing the exercise. Productive exercise requires that you restrict your caloric intake. That is to say, you shouldn't not eat but carefully monitor your daily intake.Avoiding Read more:Weight
