Logical Weight Loss

I watched the movie bite size on NetFlix. It was very eye opening. You will watch a few over weight teenagers and in the end they don't want to lose weight. Their parents are spending thousands of dollars, telling them to get off their butt, but its not  working. In one instance, the father of one of the children has a stroke and has to get himself into shape. What happens? The family starts to do activities together and they ALL lose weight. Children are looking for you to lead by example. You can tell them to get off the computer and turn back to the TV where you are eating cheese curls and mountain dew. Do as I say not as I do didn't work when you were a kid, and it doesn't work on your kids either. In multiple scenes you hear where kids (who let's face it get to do a lot of stuff we didn't get to) are doing what they need to do to get healthy because 'They don't want to." My favorite is the girl who is riding an electronic scooter. An electronic scooter. You're spending money on fitness camps, and your child has an ELECTRONIC scooter. Get this kid a 10 speed. https://youtu.be/PygoGs9FbKY If you have children it is a must watch.

While we know that we can watch our health using a scale and a tape measure, but there are other ways and one of them is to measure your resting heart rate. Today I talk about a free app that allows you to accurately record your resting heart rate. An athlete's resting hear rate may be around 40. Don't be depressed if you're not in that ball park. Measure it, exercise, eat right and see if it goes down. The lower your heart rate, the better health you are in (your heart isn't working as hard).

Original story 

A pound of Weight Gain on a single plate

Sugar and Fat are bad for the brain

Avoid Superbugs at the GYM

You don't FEEL like exercising.

You don't FEEL like eating healthy.

So you don't.

This leads to you NOT exercising and eating right.

That decision leads to you feeling bad about yourself. It damages your confidence.

With less confidence, you don't FEEL like you can lose weight. It's too tough.

You FEEL horrible, sad, dejected.

You know you'r not a loser, but you sure feel like one.

You're honest.

You're caring

You have integrity.

You keep your word.

You've tackled tough things in past

Put the decision you WANT to do, on your calendar.

Then do it. Even if you don't feel like it. DO IT (you said you were a person who keeps their word)

When you are done you will FEEL better (tired, but better).

You WILL have MORE confidence.

This leads you to believing you CAN do this.

The positive FEELINGS lead to you gaining confidence.

But it means doing things that you may not WANT to do.

But in the end you WILL BE doing something you WANT to do and that's be healthy.

I'm not saying be a robot. We all have feelings, but they can be manipulated and lead us in the wrong (non-healthy) direction.

This makes sense. It's logical. It's simple.

It's not easy.

One more time.

It's not easy.

If it was easy, we'd all be thin.

I'm happy I'm down to 218.8. This is partially due to losing a tooth and not being able to eat "sharp food". This includes peanuts, chips, popcorn, for three weeks. What am I eating instead? Fruits and vegetables. I'm not shocked that this then results in weight loss. are you?

I've been out and about, and I'm glad to be back in front of the microphone. I got called out of town and with no planning I didn't have much time to plan. I had awful food choices and no time to exercise. Consequently, I gained week. Then the following week I get shipped out of time. This time I planned my food, and made a concerted effort to get active. The result? I lost weight. I'm down to 218.8

Seven minutes doens't sound long until your thighs are on fire. I just downloaded and used the 7 app from Perigee. Here is the specs of this free app. The goal is to exercise 7 minutes for 7 months. As you do the workouts you unlock new workouts (or you can purchase them for $1.99). You exercise for 30 seconds and then rest for 10 seconds. The game part is you start off with three hearts. Every month you get 3 hearts. When you skip a workout, you lose a heart. If you miss three in a month, you're score goes back to zero. Here are some of the interesting information:

I went to the New Media Expo last week. I walked a ton. 17,254 20365 11000 17,179 12521 7657 I barely had time to eat. A smoothie for breakfast and then "lunch" around 7 PM. I often missed lunch, and never even missed it. Am I suggesting we all starve ourselves? NO! My point is there are times when we eat, and we are not hungry. This past week proved to me I can go longer between meals and not die. I found a couple of articles. Hunger Test Article WOmen's Day 4 ways to stop eating
