let s try a simple diet for those who wish to lose some weight.this is a guaranteed weight loss diet and it s not very difficult to keep.i know because i did it as well and some hollywood superstars tried it.it s the one and only cabbage soup diet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Day One:
Eat only fruit, all the fruit you want except banana, which contains too many calories. Drink tea, black coffee, cranberry juice and water.Of course, with NO SUGAR whatsoever. You can eat as much soup as you like and whenever you want to.

Day Two:
Today is vegetable day - fresh, raw or cooked vegetables of your choice as you please. Stay away from dry beans, peas and sweet corn. Reward yourself with a big baked potato with butter for dinner. Eat as much soup as you like, but no fruit for today.

Day Three:
In this day you can combine the first teo days, meaning eat as much fruit, vegetables and soup as you like but no baked potato.

Day Four:
Eat as many as eight bananas and drink as many glasses of skim milk as you would like on this day, along with your soup. This day is supposed to lessen your desire for sweets and trust me, it works.

Day Five:
You may have 10-20 ounces of beef (300-500g) and a large tin or up to six fresh tomatoes. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water this day to wash the uric acid from your body. Eat your soup at least once today. You may eat broiled or baked chicken (skinless) instead of beef. If you prefer, you can substitute broiled fish for the beef.

Day Six:

HOLLYWOOD STARS DIETS





Well, just as I thought, the title caught your eyes and you want to know about the “magical” way in which the Hollywood stars look so good.What is their secret? Can I do the same?Good question!I am afraid that the answer is not going to open your horizon or that you will be wiser afterwards.The truth is that there is NO magical way or secret strategy. Because they are human just like we are, they use the same methods that you would use.

Want proof? There is a compilation from recent interviews and articles on the dieting "secrets" of Hollywood stars: Alicia Silverstone is a vegan. Joan Lunden eats fruit. Jennifer Aniston is on the Zone. Diane Sawyer does the Cabbage Soup Diet. Heather Locklear likes McDonald's and French fries. Jennifer Lopez eats eight mini-meals. Claudia Schiffer sips green tea. Patricia Heaton eats lots of dairy. Melanie Griffith drinks smoothies. Demi Moore eats lots of protein. Nia Peeples shuns protein. Kelly Preston eats oatmeal and bagels and Mel Gibson doesn’t eat chicken!

Sarah Michelle Gellar said a monumental phrase, which you should know about as well "Look, it's crazy for people to try to be as thin as we are. We have personal trainers and personal chefs. It's our job to look this way." TRUE!!! Most of them have an army of nutritionists, personal trainers and even a manager to remind them that their looks sells and if they don’t build themselves a marvelous body they don’t get any plays.

Yes it is true, so you work with your own body, get used to your metabolism and try to keep fit and healthy at the same time, but don’t overreact!!! Besides, they look good in movies because of all the angles they are filmed from, lights and make up.

This was just a reminder so you don’t overreact.

find the best way for you


Even if you choose to use an over-the-counter weight loss product or participate in a weight loss program, the bottom line is that you still must eat fewer calories than you burn to lose weight. When selecting a weight loss product or program, gather as much information as possible.

If you want accurate information about law, you go to a lawyer and not to an athlete or a movie star. If you want to go on a weight loss program,of any kind, a diet for example, seek out authorities in the field of nutrition like nutritionists, physicians, registered dietitians and nurses who specialize in weight control.If you are older than 40 and want to start an exercise program but have medical problems such as heart disease, diabetes or high blood pressure check first with your physician.

Although there are many types of weight-management programs available their long-term success is dismal.Studies show that on the averege people lose about 10% of their body weight but regain two-thirds within one year after ending the program.So,in about five years all the weight is gained back.

Program managers have a responsability to provide consumers with truthful and unambigous information that is neither misleading nor likely to be misinterpreted.

So,in order to choose the best weight loss program for you, you have to follow some steps.Firstly you have to know the credentials and qualifications of the people running the program. Ask for detailed information of the potential health risks.Be realistic about what you wish to accomplish through the program and be willing to devote the time and effort required to attain your goal.

Avoid diets of less than 800 calories a day except under medical supervison.Look up for a weight management program that includes an exercise program tailored to you.

The key is to find a program that can back its advertising and promotional claims with proof that the programs work. A program should be able to provide statistics showing the percentage of clients who have lost weight and not regained it for one year as well as the percentage of clients for whom this information is available.

advice from a friend


3 pieces of advice

1.Eat more in the morning and less in the evening

Many people skip breakfast; either because they’re late for school, work or doctor or they like to enjoy a nice hot coffee with a cigarette next to it. During day, eat some fast food if they got time, and then, dinner comes. Of course that after a long day, the tendency is to eat everything.

Ok, this was the story, now ill give you some technical stuff

A relaxing period follows after dinner, when the body mustn’t transform the food in energy any more, and so, the food turns into fat.This is why a consistent breakfast is recommended, like eggs, milk, cereals, meat and a light dinner like yoghurt or fruits. The dinner should take place 3 hours before you go to bed.

2. Sport is essential

It is interesting that after you start doing sport, you may notice that instead of losing weight, the number of kilograms gets a bit higher in the beginning.Don;t freak out and give up!It is normal this way, because the muscles get harder, nothing else!Your body will not loosen from weight loss if you keep up sport. You will feel active and full of life!

3.Food+TV= good bye good looks!

Eating in front of the TV is very harmful to your body, because you don’t actually realize how much you eat. Eyes on the screen, you swallow immense amounts of popcorn, chocolate, ice cream, chips or biscuits. Because you don’t burn any fats sitting, you gain a lot of weight. Of course that it is hard not to take action when you watch your favorite heroes fighting, so you grab a bite! Instead of grabbing a big bite, try to choose fruits or vegetables.The best solution would be to go and live your life, walk a bit, paint read a book, but it is your personal option!

Introduction



Are you sick of gaining weight or not be able to reveal your feminine shapes? Would you like to get rid of some of the flappy belly and extra kilos?I am going to give you some pieces of advice, so you find weight loss easier and not something hard to do.
First of all, there are hundreds of diets and eating plans that you can follow but you must remember that without moving a bit, exercising, your chances of weight losing are not small, but surely less healthier and not good for you. We have many sport machines on the market which could help you do the job. But don't think that without one you cannot lose weight. That's not true. If you do a set of exercises well, you burn the calories you need to burn.

Caloric expenditure is directly related to the amount of effort an activity requires. In general, the more difficult it feels, the more calories you burn.The easier it feels the fewer calories you burn.Most of these items are just for marketing and not really that practical. If exercising on your own doesn't work, you can go to the gym or aerobics. Pilates exercises are as well very practical and should improve your physical condition. Before you start doing these, don't hunger yourself, exercising on an empty stomach does not affect how you lose weight. Actually, it may hinder it if you don't have the energy to exercise. You should at least drink a glass of juice before to your workout if you're exercising in the morning.

After finding an appropriate sporting exercise, find a good way of eating. You can choose a diet or simply control your eating habits. Don' t even think about not eating or stuff like this. You don't want to faint or go to the hospital because a simple diet you have chosen. If your problems regarding weight are major, you should consult a doctor before you choose anything in this matter.
