Seccessful Weight Lose on Holiday Seasons!

There’s always a first time for everything, Losing Weight is not exceptional. The question in today’s Weight loss Tips - reiVRE Hot Pulse is – "How can you survive the holiday without gaining too much weight?"

The weather is cooler and the leaves outside are lovely shades of red and orange. Fall is definitely here, and also well indicated by the changing of displays at your favorite grocer. Boxes of turkey stuffing are stacked in pyramids at every isle, there might be a sign-up sheet to claim a nice, juicy bird for the last week of November, and cans of pumpkin pie filling are taking up more shelf space than usual. The big eating holidays are here, the stores are prepared for the crush, but are you prepared to survive the holidays without gaining too much weight? Don’t forget weight loss secrets.

In the past, it was commonly believed that the average person tended to gain at least five pounds over the holiday season. More recent research refutes this number, claiming that a gain of one pound is more accurate. While that may seem like good news to people looking forward to a Thanksgiving feast, there should still be some cause for concern. As the holidays are a time of familial togetherness, oftentimes such activity is sedentary. Friends and relatives gather at home and typically spend the holidays watching televised parades or football games, with very little time going to physical activity. Thanksgiving leftovers may lead to the prospect of continuous snacking over the long weekends, and while you might not gain a lot of weight in this short time, you may be setting a habit that will stay with you through the end of the year and beyond.

Don't be fooled by statistics, either. Just because research indicates that the average weight gain over the holidays is one pound doesn't you won't gain more than a pound this year. It also doesn't give you license to reach for that third slice of pumpkin pie and think the fat and calories will magically disappear while you watch the big game! Moderation and consideration on weight loss tips are the keys to enjoying any holiday dinner, and you shouldn't feel as though you have to deny yourself your favorite foods this year. Just watch what goes on your plate, and watch how it is cooked.

Turkey, for example, is low in fat and high in protein. Eaten without the skin and only a smattering of gravy, it provides a delicious base for a holiday meal. Better yet, leave off the gravy altogether, it's good enough on it own! Add some steamed vegetables and a cup of sweet potato with a dash of cinnamon (without the butter, it's fat free!), and you have quite the feast. Of course, don't deny yourself a sliver of pie, but be prepared to burn off those calories. At halftime, bundled up for a short walk. Even if you go around the block just once, it burns off more energy than you would just sitting in front of the television. Or, why not establish a new tradition with the family with a game of backyard football? You get your exercise, you bond with family. Everbody wins at this game.

Vigilance and motivation can help beat the weight gain blues over the holidays. Eat, drink and be merry, but also be active.

How to Lose Weight Through Exercise

There’s always a first time for everything, Lossing Weight is not exceptional. The question in today’s Weight loss Tips - reiVRE Hot Pulse is – "Can you get on the road to take action right away?"

You can definitely shed some pounds by utilizing these inexpensive weight loss exercises, but they must be used in combination with good nutrition to get to a healthier body.

Every time one turns on the television or browses the internet, there is a bombardment of weight loss tips, scams and tricks. Because of advertisement, people believe that weight loss can come in the form of a pill or surgery. Pills are often just dangerous caffeine dosages in an attempt to curve hunger. Surgery though it is technically a fat removal, carries with it dangerous risks and does not improve the condition of one's heart or muscles.

Watching what one is consuming is definitely an EXCELLENT start to a weight loss program. There is no question at all about that. But in order to build muscle and get the heart in the best shape possible, exercise is needed.

There are several weight loss exercise regimes one may follow to maximize payback and get rapid weight loss results. None of them are as simple as taking a pill or scheduling a surgery, but with today's technological advancements as far as equipment and body output monitoring, the easiest route to physical fitness can be achieved quite easily.

The key to a healthy weights loss and trim body is balance. One must balance nutrition with aerobics and strength training in order to achieve the ideal result. However, this does not mean never eating junk again or performing grueling labor in a hated exercise program. Good nutrition can be achieved through a bit of knowledge and a bit of self control. I know that I cannot live without a piece of chocolate here and there. Half of a Hershey's Bar once a month is not going to destroy my physical fitness goals. It is all about balancing the things I eat and limiting myself to as little junk food as possible.

Jogging is a fantastic way to lose weight through exercise. Not only does it get the blood flowing, promote flexibility, and get the heart pumping, but it also builds muscle mass in one's legs.

Swimming is an alternative to jogging for those physically unable to jog. Swimming is very, very low impact and it works a variety of muscle groups. This is a great choice for the elderly or injured to keep circulation up and build muscle mass.

Bicycling is a fun way to shed pounds while getting some fresh air. Be sure, before engaging on a bicycle journey, that you have a comfortable sear, properly working brakes, and the proper bike for you. This can be a little dangerous and is not a good choice for those with disabilities or movement-impairing diseases.

Power Walking is a safer alternative to bicycling for those looking to get an effective cardiovascular workout and shedding a few pounds. Power walking can be a fun exercise if you can get a few friends to do it with you. Good conversation always makes a bit of exercise go faster.

Unfortunately, all of the aforementioned exercise methods do not apply to those with movement-impairing diseases. For those that are disabled or cannot strain muscles, losing weight can be a daunting task and gaining muscle is a far fetched fantasy. For these people, I would recommend a combination of resistance, isometrics and breathing (deep, slow and rhythmic). Because this can be done while sitting down or laying on the floor, it is ideal for those who have difficulty leaving the house and getting around.


Remember, you can definitely shed some pounds by utilizing these inexpensive weight loss exercises, but they must be used in combination with good nutrition to get to a healthier body. Commit yourself to a time (however brief... as little as thirty minutes will do the trick) every day to devote to making your body stronger and healthier.

The Facts You Need About Weight Loss Motivation

There’s always a first time for everything, Lossing Weight is not exceptional. The question in today’s Weight loss Tips - reiVRE Hot Pulse is – "How will you know about successful weight loss diets?"

When you truly consider the weight-loss process, the battle waged is mostly in your mind. "Should I eat the corn muffin with butter or would it be better for me to have margarine or better yet, have jelly? What am I doing eating this muffin anyway? It's so caloric and filled with saturated fat. I'm such a pig. I have absolutely zero willpower." It's no wonder you'll eat that muffin with the butter and slather jelly on top to quiet that negative self-talk.

What you need more than a diet is a way to shift those negative self-defeating thoughts to more realistic, positive self-statements. As with most things worth doing, this requires some practice. First, become aware when you're using a negative statement, then determine what about that thought is faulty and finally, replace it with a self-defense response or coping thought. In the corn muffin example, instead of listening to "I'm such a pig" which clearly mislabels who you are, respond with "Pigs are animals and I am human. I don't have to be perfect."

Many people can't change their eating habits until they change their thoughts about food, eating and drinking. By shedding "distorted" thoughts and replacing them with productive ones, eating habits can be changed. It is possible to rid yourself from many self-critical thoughts, but like any ingrained habit, it takes vigor and vigilance to change. Here are some other thinking distortions to challenge:

Shoulds. Should statements are more about other people's values, not ones chosen by the person who wants to lose weight. Additionally, should statements reflect an attempt by the dieter to motivate herself without really believing in the value. Better to determine what works for you. "I will eat up to two Hershey kisses daily and thoroughly enjoy them."

All or Nothing. This kind of reasoning is the foundation for perfectionism. An all or nothing individual views the world as black or white. Since there is no allowance for gray areas, the behavior is either perfect or a failure. "I've ruined my diet by eating all that pizza. I can't stay on a diet and I'll just always be fat." Maybe the problem does not arise from the behavior? maybe the problem is with the diet that does not allow for pizza. "I do not want to give pizza up for the rest of my life, so what I need is a way to include pizza in my diet without feeling like a failure. Let me try having a salad (dressing on the side) before the pizza to take the edge off my hunger."


Good Foods/Bad Foods. If the truth be told, foods are not bad. In fact, foods are not good or bad. While it is true that some foods have more nutrients or are more fiber-dense than others, all foods can be enjoyed. How we think about food colors what we eat and how much we eat. If a food is labeled as bad (such as fries), then for many individuals that food is taboo. When one eventually succumbs to eating the forbidden, French fries, bingeing may result. Rather than continue with dichotomous thinking of good food/bad food, shift to allow space for all foods you like without judgement. Instead of "I ate those fries which are so bad for me" to "I really enjoyed that small portion of fries. They really satisfied me."

Body Distortions. Rather than dwelling on how fat or thin you think your body is, it is extremely helpful to view your body in terms of what it can do for you. For example, when you look in the mirror, instead of zooming in on your stomach which "looks five months pregnant, although your last baby was nine years ago" tell yourself "my body has given life" or "my body enables me to go where I want to and allows me to have fun."

The conversations that are going on inside your head cannot be stopped. However, what you can do is to be aware of negative self-talk and understand that it has little to do with actual reality. When you believe this, you can respond to the critical voice with a more objective, coping thought. Although negative thoughts may not be stopped entirely, they can be quieted by listening to your compassionate, caring voice. In much the same way you would sympathize and listen to a close friend, listen to yourself. Be your own best friend and chances are you'll have greater weight loss success.
