“Hi, it’s Susanne Phillips, do you know who I am?” began the call.

“Why yes, I do know who you are Susanne”, I nearly choked. You see, Susanne was the mother of Bill Phillips, the owner of EAS and originator of the Body For Life contest, the one I had entered that year (technically Body For Life didn’t originate until the next year, but that’s another story for another time).

“Good!” said Susanne, “because we’ve been trying to get in touch with you for a couple of weeks and I’d almost given up!”, she exclaimed.

“You’re a finalist in this year Physique Transformation contest and I wanted to speak with you a bit and ask you a couple of questions… do you have a moment?”

Do I have a “moment”? she asked? I mean, come on, the mother of the one person I had so admired was calling me on the phone asking me if I had a moment to talk about being a finalist in the biggest body transformation contest in the world?  Uhhhh, well… “Yes!”

That conversation started a 2 week road to discovering the ultimate secret to really getting in shape. It was nothing about the latest fat burning  tips, or some rehashed science spouted as new, or a miraculous supplement that would magically transform my body.

No, the secret was using the power of psychology.

When Susanne called, I was out of shape. That’s right, from the time I finished my contest entry packet on Sept 19 of that year, to early December when Susanne called, I had let myself get out of shape again.

My father died a month after finishing my contest and it sapped any desire I had for staying in shape. So out of shape I got again, and in short order too.

So when Susanne said I was a finalist, and then even worse, when Bill Phillips himself called me personally the following day congratulating me on my win (yes, I won), I knew right there I was in a deep, deep pile of doo-doo.

Picked a winner from an entrant pool of over 200,000 people that year, I was supposed to reflect what a healthy, strong, lean physique was supposed to look like. Yet I was out of shape a mere 13 days prior to going to Golden, Colorado for the awards ceremony. Sheesh! How did I get myself into this mess? And why did I ever let myself get so out of shape again.

After crying for a couple of hours over what “could have been’s”, I made a decision to do everything in my power to transform my body once again.

And guess what… I did it. But I could not have done it without the immense power of psychology. I didn’t know it then, but now I know I discovered the true “missing ingredient” and real “secret” to getting AND staying in great shape.

And it all starts with your mind…

And this is what I promised you a couple of posts ago that would really make the difference in your ability to burn fat, and keep fat off too.

I’ve searched far and wide for a program that would help others in this regard. When it happened to me it was like a switch went off in my head and I just “knew” I would get back into shape again.

But I couldn’t really teach this.

After much searching I discovered a program that works  the psychology of how you view things, to help you make the mental switch to “do the right things” without it  being so hard.

So If you are having problems with losing weight (we know
sticking to a diet can be difficult), then this message will
be the most important message you will ever read.

Here’s why:

A major-league weight loss psychotherapist, Dr. Roberta
Temes, has finally decided to publish the same sessions she
uses with celebrities and other VIP New York clients.

These hypnosis sessions allow them to follow the advice
of their dieticians almost effortlessly, even with their
hectic schedules.

She has had great success in working with people who have
problems following their eating and exercise plans . . . the
plans that they KNOW they need to use in order to get to and
maintain their ideal weights.

Although she has worked with some celebrities we cannot name,
she has also helped normal people finally gain control
over cravings that they never believed they would overcome.

Ann Carlo from Sag Harbor, New York is an example:

****************************************************

“Enjoying Weight Loss is fabulous. Thought I forgot all about
it yesterday, until I realized that I ate breakfast (which
I rarely do), drank a lot of water, had a veggie dinner and
DIDN’T EAT ANY SUGAR . . . A MIRACLE! Can’t convince me that
this system does not operate on some level . . . even though
you’re not always conscious of it at the time.”

****************************************************

Dr. Temes is on the Department of Psychiatry at the SUNY
Health Science Center Medical School, so everything she does
is based on research and not “pop” psychology.

This is not the typical weight loss program that you might
be used to seeing. It is not a “diet” or a “workbook” and it
won’t try to psychoanalyze you with a bunch of “inner child”
mumbo-jumbo.

It is straight clinical hypnosis from the author of
Medical Hypnosis, the first hypnosis textbook used in
medical schools.

Here are some of the amazing things you will learn
when you go through Dr. Temes’ seven-session program:

• How to stop your cravings instantaneously, allowing you to stop binging before you start.
• How to get off the diet roller coaster. (Learn how to move from being a “dieter” to being someone who is permanently healthy.)
• How to create new neural pathways that empower you to replace unhealthy eating habits with healthy ones.
• Why willpower will not work long term, and how to create effortless motivation.
• How to eliminate your desire for sodas and replace them with a craving for WATER!

And that’s just a tiny fraction of what you’ll learn
how to do in this 4-CD audio program.

The best part about this program is that it uses hypnosis,
so there are no guidebooks or things you are supposed
to do later. All you do is spend 15 minutes a day listening
to the sessions and the changes start to happen. Most people
notice a dramatic change within just 21 days!

This program comes with an iron-clad 1 YEAR
no-questions-asked money back guarantee, and it’s easy to
order.

Best of all, because it is so important to your health that
you get this program, I’ve negotiated a special deal for you.

This offer, which includes the complete Enjoying Weight Loss
4-CD program and over $75 of valuable bonuses, will cost you
less than $100. But only if you order in the next week, or
until supplies run out.

To your health,

Harry Johnson Jr.

P.S. This program is recommended by doctors,trainers,
and dieticians who use it to help their clients with
diet adherence:

“I have been using the Enjoying Weight Loss
program with my patients who tell me they don’t even think
about ‘bad’ food anymore . . . it’s just a fact in their
mind. They find it easy to change self-destructive behavior
and ’stay with the program’ that I recommend. This has
always been my biggest challenge as a clinician.”

Well, this is a tricky question because the answer is, it all depends. First of all, it depends on the person. Are they really motivated to lose weight? Will they be honest in their nutritional choices and follow the trainer’s advice? But there is another really, really important question to ask, and that is “WHO is the trainer?”

The problem with personal trainers is, they are every where. Any gym you go to has personal trainers, the internet is teeming with them. Also, there are several institutions that offer certification classes to potential trainers, but only a handful of these are nationally accredited institutions-and that fact alone makes a HUGE difference in the QUALITY of training and preparation a trainer receives.

Fitness trainers are supposed to be professionals that (along with your doctor’s o.k) can create and guide you through a fitness program that is right for you. Their job is more than just providing you with fat burning tips and an occasional “good job” during a session. They are supposed to help keep you on course and teach you how to properly perform fitness exercises appropriate for your fitness level and aspirations. They should help keep you stimulated and inspired through your fitness journey.

But then again, as with other entities included in the fitness world, not all fitness trainers are created equal. They may vary from the different trainings that they have, the health education they have acquired, and the skills that they have learned.

That’s why it is extremely important to consider some factors that will determine if a certain fitness trainer is right for you. Here is what you should know before selecting a trainer:

1. Certification: Like any item or product, the quality is sometimes measured and determined through the certification that goes with it.

A good trainer will do more than just throw fat burning tips your way. He or she should be able to track your progress and help you keep focused among other things.

So, before you choose your fitness trainer, it is important to verify if the trainer is duly certified by aa accredited institution. It is also best to choose a trainer that is CPR certified and trained in emergency first aid.

2. Educational background/Trainings: Even though it is not necessary, trainers who have acquired additional education connected with health or any other related field will definitely have an edge over the others.

3. Does the trainer give you the attention you need and deserve? A good fitness trainer should be able to give his or her undivided attention to a client during a paid session. In this way, the trainer will be able to focus more on the details that need attention and immediate considerations. If you have paid for group sessions, be sure the trainer provides adequate attention to each client and is experienced in dealing with more than one client at a time.

4. Does the trainer know how to track a clients progress? Is he or she organized and prepared for sessions? It is best to choose a fitness trainer that knows how to track his or her client’s progress as far as fitness is concerned. In this way, the trainer will be able to generate new activities and trainings designated for a particular result for a specific client. Also as in any job, the trainer should be presentable and well-organized. This is a good reflection of his or her ability to effectively conduct a session.

5. What kind of personality does the trainer have? We are all differnt and we are all motivated by different forms of training. Some people need to hear more encouraging words to keep moving while others love the “boot camp” style of training. Whatever you prefer, be sure that the trainer is effectively communicating whether or not you are headed in the right direction. You will be spending quite a bit of one-on-one time with your trainer so be sure it is someone who is compatible with your personality while still giving you the “tough love” you need to reach your fitness goals.

Having a personal trainer can be a huge asset so long as he or she is the right match for you AND possesses the necessary knowledge, education, and experience to help you achieve your goals. So, one of the most important fat burning tips I can give you is: do your homework BEFORE hiring a trainer and be sure he or she is right for you.

Another reason is that a lot of women are confused about what to do exactly (what exercises, how many repetitions,

Strength training to tone up and shed pounds is one of the most useful fat burning tips I give my clients.

how many sets, etc.). This article will help shed some light on why it is so important that every woman be involved in and adhering to a strength training program. You actually might be involved in a strength-training program right now. Even if you are, I want you to really pay attention to what we’re going to cover for the rest of the article.  I’m sure it is going to have you thinking differently about why you should be lifting weights from now on.

We’re going to talk about why developing a strength training program will ultimately help you lose weight, add some muscle tone, look better and feel better about yourself. It is one of the best fat burning tips I can give you. We will go over some “myths” about strength training and the real facts behind them. So, whether you’re new to strength training or you’ve been doing it for years, pay close attention. Let’s first clear up some of the misconceptions about strength training and the truth behind these myths.

This first myth is the “biggie” and it has prevented many women from strength training. It sounds a little something like this: “I don’t want to lift weights because I don’t want to get bulky.” Let’s explore that myth a little. When you think of weight lifters, you probably think of body builders, right? You think of the men and women on ESPN parading around in little swimsuits with big bulky muscles popping out all over the place. There are three reasons for this:

1. These people are an extremely minute percentage of the population.

2. That is their livelihood and they spend 4 to 5 hours a day in the gym.

3. Many of them are using performance-enhancing drugs (steroids, etc.) to look like that.

So if you can get that image of the “bodybuilder” out of your head and think in terms of the average everyday person, you will see why the myth about getting bulky is just that, a myth! What we’re going to talk about next is simple. When you lift weights your body builds muscle. The more muscle you have, the more calories you burn (even at rest).   The more calories you burn the less you weigh.

Now you might say to yourself, “But if I lift weights, my muscles will get bigger, I will appear big and bulky, and wind up weighing more.” This is also a myth. That myth being one of the most popular in the world of exercise, which is, “muscle weighs more than fat.” That’s like the old joke, “What weighs more–10 lbs. of steel or 10 lbs. of feathers?” Hopefully by now you know that the answer to that question is that they both really weigh the same.  10 lbs. is 10 lbs. no matter what it is made of. Let’s examine this point in a little more detail.

Muscle is much more compact than fat. It actually takes up less space than fat does because of its density. That makes sense, right? Fat, on the other hand, is very soft and jelly-like and occupies more space than muscle does.  Let me give you another example to clarify this a little more. If you were to take 10 lbs. of fat and 10 lbs. of muscle and roll each of them into a ball, the 10 lbs. of fat might be the size of a bowling ball. In comparison, the 10 lbs. of muscle would be about the size of a baseball. Now let’s use this as a real life example using woman #1 and woman #2 in an example.

Let’s say for arguments sake, both women are 5′ 5″ tall and both weigh 140 lbs. Woman #2 does not lift weights or do any kind of strength training. Her dress size is a size 12. Woman #1 on the other hand, lifts weights and follows a strength-training program each week.  Her dress size is a size 8. If these women were standing side by side people would definitely think that woman #1 weighed less than woman #2. But in reality they both weigh exactly the same. How can that be? Think of what I said before, muscle takes up less space than fat. Of those 140 pounds that each woman weighs, what’s the percentage of fat and muscle on each woman?

I would venture to guess that woman #1 has a very low body fat percentage and woman #2 has a much higher body fat percentage. How did woman #1 get such a low percentage of body fat?  Two words—STRENGTH TRAINING (in addition to cardio exercise and eating healthy, but this article is just touting the immense benefits of strength training). That brings up another good point I’d like to make. The weighing scale is the worst indicator of losing FAT. It will tell you that you’ve lost weight, it’s great at that. But what if you lose 10 pounds of fat and replace it with 10 pounds of muscle?  Will you have lost weight? According to the scale, NO! Will you have lost FAT? Absolutely, and I guarantee that your clothes will be a lot looser on you and you will look and feel a lot better. If you can do one thing with your scale I would recommend throwing it in the garbage, or at least getting rid of it.

So, I hope some of you ladies out there got a little useful information and fat burning tips from this article. In the least, I hope you are at least a bit more receptive to the idea of strength training. Give it a try and I guarantee that along with a healthy, balanced diet and some cardio/ aerobic exercise you should be on your way to fitness excellence!

Your opponent is very strong, so I am going to arm you with the most powerful weapons and fat  burning tips I know of to assure your victory. We all know the feeling of the extremely powerful hunger pangs you feel when you’ve gone a long period of time without eating. And, what usually happens after a prolonged fast? Typically, we don’t care what we put into our bodies as long as it is quick, easy, and of course, tasty. The problem is that the quick, easy, and tasty foods are usually foods that are not going to help you stay lean and maximize nutrition.

So, how can you vanquish hunger in a positive way? Willpower will only go so far. But, there are several things you can

Fat loss tips from fruit: Cantaloupe is a tasty, yet healthy treat that may help curb hunger in between meals.

do to keep hunger at bay. The first is to consume at least 5-6 very small meals per day, making sure your total calorie levels are below your maintenance requirements. This is one way to curb your hunger pangs.

Water also goes a long way toward helping you feel fuller and reducing your feelings of hunger. A lack of water has also been shown to reduce your metabolic rate, which is the last thing you want to happen on your body transformation quest.

Removing temptation from your house is another way to dramatically improve your efforts to avoid negative eating habits. My willpower is no stronger than anyone else’s. I know that, if I have goodies in the house, I am much more likely to indulge than if I had to get in the car and go to the store to buy them. If there is nothing there for me to munch on when I get the urge for something sweet (except prescribed foods), I have a much smaller chance of “falling off the wagon.” And this is where healthy snack alternatives, such as fruit, come into play.

For me, melon or cantaloupe is an excellent snack. You won’t believe how incredibly good they can taste when you are craving a sweet snack. They are high in natural sugars that give them a distinctly sweet taste. Plus, they are loaded with fiber and super-packed with antioxidants, so are quite good for you. The fiber will fill you up in no time – I promise – with minimal damage to your calorie levels. Keep in mind that these fat burning tips do not give you carte blanche to eat it all the time: it is a very good way to combat powerful urges.

They also have the added benefit of being healthy snacks food for kids, who demand their sweets. By being strong and limiting their sweet intake to the prescribed foods, you accomplish two wonderful things.
First you are making it easier on yourself to continue making progress toward your perfect body; and second, you are providing your kids with much improved nutrition by eliminating “traditional” snacks such as chips, cookies, or soda. It is surely worth the extra effort to provide your children with nutrition that makes them healthier now and in the long run, and teaches them the proper ways to eat.

In short, you are doing nothing less than providing your children with a legacy in the form of a habit that will benefit

An important fat loss tip for all ages: Stock up on fresh cantaloupe whch is high in fiber and antioxidants!

their health and the health of future generations. You have the power to create a lasting heritage that could benefit your family tree for generations to come. Don’t take this lightly: the power is really in your hands. And, don’t fall into the trap of taking the easy way out and giving your kids “fast foods” because it’s easier or you “don’t have the time anymore.”

With escalating rates of disease in this country due our self-destructive, sickness-promoting eating habits, we become trapped in a vicious cycle of poor eating and lowered health. You have the power to cut this cycle short and start a new lifestyle based on wholesome, nutritious foods that promote health, not destroy it. And, I don’t need to remind you that it is your choice as to whether you want to change for your benefit and for your family’s benefit. Lack of time, or any other reason, should not be a valid excuse when it comes to the health and welfare of your family.

There’s lots of misinformation about fats; let me try and shed a little light on the potential confusion for you, and try and convince you that you absolutely need to supplement with the right fats in your diet every single day. Some of the best fat burning tips are coming right up.

Essential Fatty Acids (EFA’s)

Each day you wait to add EFA's to your diet, is one day you're delaying improving your health

I’m going to excerpt a lot of what you’re going to read from Dr. Robert O. Young’s book, “Ph Miracle”, a highly recommended book. Another highly recommend book if you’re interested in delving even deeper into why EFA’s are absolutely essential to add to your diet is Dr. Udo Erasmus’s excellent book, “Fast That Heal, Fats That Kill” best-seller. Both are must-reads.

EFA’s are found in fish and seed oil, and include omega-3 and -6 fatty acids. Fatty acids are normal parts of all human cells, and are especially abundant in brain cells, nerve synapes, visual receptors. adrenal glands, and sex glands.

EFA’s are so important you might be deficient… and not even know it.

Here’s the real deal…

The highly processed foods we eat strip all of the EFA’s from our foods. Why? Anything that adds heat to the food – simply processing it, even cooking it – destroy’s the EFA’s found in that food. The reason is EFA’s are highly heat intolerant. This is why they always come in brown bottles (to shield them from the light) and must be kept refrigerated because just leaving it out at room temperature for a couple of days will make it go rancid.

Here’s a test for you, it’s not perfect, but for a lot of people it’s indicative of whether the amount of EFA’s you’re taking are sufficient. CHECK YOUR ELBOWS… if the skin is smooth and velvety, with no discoloration there at all (the skin should look exactly like the texture and color of the skin on your forearm) then you might be taking in enough EFA’s.

If it’s a little rougher and drier than the surrounding skin areas, then you’re likely EFA deficient. Obvioulsy, this doesn’t count if you add lotion to the area to artificially smooth it out. Evaluate your skin there without adding any lotions.

So, dry elbows = EFA deficiency. Here’s what you can do.

First, let me explain to you why EFA’s are so critically important for your health, and to help you lose fat. Let’s look at the omega-3 fatty acids first. The omega-3’s (EPA and DHA) help

Fat Burning Tips 1: Add EFA's to help "uncouple" your fat from storage and allow you to burn it easier.

reduce toxins in your blood; they lower levels of repair proteins in the arteries. Repair proteins are also involved in the development of atherosclerosis, so lowering them is a double bonus.

Omega-3 fatty acids offer much more in the way of protection for the heart: They help disperse saturated fatty acids, which like to stick together, thereby avoiding lumps of fat in the blood that dampen electrical charges. They keep blood platelets from getting too sticky, resulting in lower likelihood of clots that can cause heart attacks or strokes. They lower triglycerides by up to 65 percent. They lower cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein (LDL – the bad cholesterol). They lower very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL – the REALLY bad cholesterol) by half. High triglyceride levels, and especially LDL and VLDL, are associated with cardiovascular disease: high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, heart and kidney failure, stroke, and heart attack. Furthermore, our bodes make prostaglandin PG3 from EPA. PG3 helps prevent strokes and heart attacks, lowers high blood pressure (by blocking the production of pressure-raising PD2’s found in meat), and prevents pathological blood clotting in the lungs and blood vessels.

And if that’s not enough for you, animal studies have shown EPA and DHA to inhibit the growth and metastasis (the spreading of disease to other tissues in the body) of tumors.

EPA and DHA are found in cold-water fish and other northern marine animals. Trout, salmon, mackerel, sardines, tuna, and eel are the richest sources of omega-3 fatty acids. For those who wish to avoid animal products, there are plant sources for a precursor to EPA and DHA, another omega-3 called alpha-linoleic acid (ALA), including flax, hemp, walnut, and soybean oils. The body has to work to make EFA conversions like this one, which requires several stages, and in a weakened system it may be better to take the preformed (animal) omega-3’s.

Omega-6 fatty acids are found in the seeds of borage, primrose, sunflower, and black currant, as well as in fish oils. Gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) is the primary one.

Omega-3’s and -6’s have a wide range of health benefits. They can:

1. Lower blood pressure, blood cholesterol, and risk of stroke and heart attack.
2. Normalize fat metabolism in diabetes and decrease the amount of insulin diabetics require.
3. Prevent liver damage due to alcoholism, reduce withdrawal symptoms from quitting an alcohol addiction, and help with a hangover.
4. Contribute to building a prostaglandin that helps some schizophrenics.
5. Cause weight loss by increasing metabolic rate and fat burnoff.
6. Relieve premenstrual breast pain and PMS. Borage oil together with vitamins and minerals has been shown to bring improvement in almost 90 percent of patients.
7. Prevent drying and atrophy of tear and salivary glads (Sjogren’s syndrome)
8. Prevent arthritis in animal studies.
9. Improve the condition of hair, nails, and skin.
10. Improve some types of eczema.
11. Slow or stop the progress of multiple sclerosis, especially if begun soon after initial diagnosis.
12. Help treat nerve degeneration (diabetic neuropathy) in type II diabetes, when sugar and saturated fats are removed from the diet as well.
13. Kill cancer cells in tissue culture without harming normal cells.

Think this enough to start supplementing? Dr. Udo Erasmus invented the delicate process for extracing these delicate oils. I recommend his formula over others for this reason. Plus, he’s taken the guesswork out of it by combining all of the essential oils I’ve spoken of above, and combining them together in the proper ratios for optimal health and fat reduction.

CLICK ON THIS LINK for Dr. Erasmus’s blend, and also the best and cheapest source I’ve found.  I highly recommend this one. Don’t look at this as a cost. Because you’re either going to pay now, or later (through pain and suffering from disease or hospital bills). It’s your choice!

Take heart as these 5 fat burning tips I’m going to give you may just be the help you need to jump start that fat burning again.

1. JUST ADD VINEGAR

Fat Burning Tips - Use Vinegar - see how

In brand new tests conducted at Arizona State University, subjects who took 1 1/2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar ate on average 200 fewer calories at the next meal.

The researchers reasoned since vinegar tends to minimize swings in blood insulin levels this reduced hunger pangs (hunger is increased when blood sugar levels are low – usually as a result of eating an easily digested unprocessed food or grain such as bread or pasta or potatoes).

Other research shows eating vinegar or lemon juice when you do eat high-carb foods lowers the jumps in blood sugar levels you would normally get.

Bottom line: Liberally use vinegar and/or lemon juice as much as you can with the meals you eat.

2. THE SPICE OF LIFE

fat burning tips - use tabasco - see why

Jalapeno’s, tabasco sauce, hot pepper rings, chile peppers, spicy mustards, and curry spices…what do all these hot and sometimes fiery spices have in common?

They all raise your metabolism.

Capsaicin, the one ingredient common to all the above plus many more similarly spicy foods, has been shown in many research studies to rev up the metabolism, allowing one to burn off many more calories.

It may also help suppress the appetite.

One recent Canadian study showed subjects who ate sauce rich in capsaicin ate about 200 fewer calories in the following 3 hours compared to those that didn’t eat the sauce.

So, if you like the hot sauce, combine it with the vinegar above and deliver a potent “double whammy” blow against our worst enemy…hunger.

3. BAD FATS…GOOD FATS…

fat burning tips - use olive oil

There are certain types of fats that actually promote more of a weight gain than others.

The best types of fat to help prevent weight gain (by fat storage) are certain mono- and poly-unsaturated types of fats. These are olive oil and omega-3 fats found in fish and several plants (the flaxseed being one of the most well known).

The worst types of fat to eat are the more saturated types of fat found in abundance in animal meats (although there are many good types of red meat with minimal amounts of saturated fat).

One study showed animals gained 1/3rd more bodyfat on a high- saturated diet than on a high monounsaturated diet.

I personally love salmon although there are many who stay away from it because of its high fat content compared to other fishes. However, the fat found here is pure, heart healthy, omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA to be exact. These particular ESSENTIAL fatty acids have also been shown to be potent fat uncouplers. This means they help “break apart” the fat cells on your body so they can be burned more readily.

4. EAT INSULIN REGULATING FOODS

There are certain foods that elicit a very small insulin output in response to eating them. This is important because insulin is a very potent “fat storage” hormone. If insulin levels are consistently raised, the chances of your storing the food you eat as fat in increased. Also, keeping insulin levels (and subsequently your blood sugar levels) low helps curb your appetite as well.

So, to keep insulin levels low eat these foods:

5. BULK IT UP TO KEEP THE FAT OFF

Fiber, fiber, and more fiber….

This is the key to long term success in keeping the weight off. You will prevent weight gain, and even increase weight loss, if the foods you eat are high in bulk, or fiber, and low in calories.

The trick to think of is to target foods that “take up a lot of space” on your plate. Not only will they take up more room in your stomach, but they typically take longer to eat as well. This is important because it allows your “satiety reflex” to kick in. This takes anywhere from 20-30 minutes.

How many times have you eaten a calorie-loaded food like cheesecake in 2 minutes flat and yet have not felt full? Trust me, so have I. And, we have not even come close to allowing enough time to pass to allow our satiety reflex to let us know we’ve eaten enough. So we’re still hungry. And we continue eating although the amount of calories we’ve taken in is more than enought already for that meal.

This leads to overeating and plenty of fat storage as well because your body just doesn’t need all those calories at one time.

But choosing a high fiber (bulky) food requires much more time to eat due to the extra chewing required. This extra time allows you to become satisfied with a much smaller calorie load.

Adding additional fiber to your diet can triple the amount of weight you can lose. Try to aim for at least 25 grams per day minimum. 35-50 grams per day would be best.

The best high fiber foods are some of the fruits and vegetables listed above in addition to some high-water foods such as soups, stews, and casseroles.

The answer may lie in their internal programming. Several studies show early experiences as a child programs our brains to act in certain ways. Also, habits learned as a child, either from our parents, or simply through consistent and repetitive choices we’ve made on our own, are deeply embedded into our subconscious. So as adults, our decisions and choices are made simply from our internal “programming” largely learned and “set” as a child.

Most repeat dieters fail at diet after diet because their own unique set of subconscious “hard-wiring” prevents them from changing on a permanent basis.

This is why “will power” is never enough to overcome decades of programming to do things a certain way. Your brain feels most comfortable doing things from habit, and, taken outside of its comfort zone, will exert all kind of sneaky tricks and tactics to get it back to what it is used to doing.

So the real key doesn’t lie in going out and buying a new diet and exercise program (although you do need a good program – but just one… not 10!), but in using the extensive power and ability of your subconscious to change your “bad” habits into good ones.

This is where hypnosis can come into the picture and make dramatic “programmatic” changes to your subconscious. Clinical uses of hypnosis are now recognized for smoking control, eating disorders, anxiety, concentration, insomnia, phobias, psychosomatic disorders and much more.

But what if you don’t have the hundreds, if not thousands of dollars to get hypnotized by a licensed hypnotherapist?

Hypnotize yourself.

Hypnosis and Fat Burning Tips

I recently purchased a personal productivity hypnosis series from the Hypnosis Network and was very pleased with my ability to change my bad habits and do things I was not able to consistently perform in the past. I highly recommend them.

Look for the hypnosis series on “Enjoying Weight Loss” available here at this link: https://www.hypnosisnetwork.com/hypnosis/weight_loss.php

Here’s some testimonials from people that have used their weight loss program: http://www.hypnosisnetwork.com/testimonials/Enjoying-Weight-Loss

P.S. The best fat loss program in the world will not work for you if you cannot follow it. If you’ve tried everything under the sun to try and lose weight and fat but have failed until now, it might not be the program you’re using… it might just be YOU! Your internal programming may be holding you back and until you change it, you’ll never achieve the kind of body transformation success you’re after.
