Using Your Thinking to Manage Your Weight

In this article we are going to take a look at 3 top mind training tips that you can easy implement to give your motivation a boost and assist you to achieve your weight loss and fitness goals.

Tip #1: Make positive and realistic goals.

In NLP, we realize that our thinking is vital when it comes to successful completing our desired outcomes and goals. So you make have a goal that is realistic and positively stated. This is important because your mind can’t process a negative, for example if I said to you don’t think about a red car, what are you thinking about? Even though I told you not to think about a red car, you did have a picture of a red car. So your weight loss and your fitness goals must be positively stated and realistic so that you can focus on them and get to where you want to be.

Tip #2: Pay attention to what you say to your inner being.

We all talk to ourselves inside our minds and this is what we call self talk. The problem is that people generally do not police their self talk and can be, inadvertently, giving themselves the wrong instructions. Being overly critical of yourself will not allow you to achieve your desired results. It’s not immediately obvious that repeating to yourself over and over again, “I don’t want to be fat anymore” is counterproductive and will cause you to be fat. So you need to change your self talk and start stating positively to yourself how you want to be instead, for example, “I am physical active and I enjoy exercise,” “I am making healthy food choices, “ “I can achieve my goals,” “I deserve to make this change now.”

Tip #3: Visualize

Use the power of your mind to create a clear visual image of the new you. Looking though your own eyes, as if it were happening now, imagine what you will see when you have reached your weight loss goal. What will you hear? How will you feel with all the transformational results you have achieved? In knowing that now, what will accomplishing this goal allow you to do? As you think about it, create in your mind’s eye a sensory rich picture of how it will be. Make sure that the picture includes visual aspects, maybe you looking at yourself in the mirror. Sounds, like the compliments your family members are giving you. Feelings, like feeling delighted with all that you have achieved and excited about the future in light of attaining this outcome. Plus any tastes or smells that might be important. Remember to include some positive self talk that we mentioned earlier in this article.

In Summary: In conjunction with your work out regime, diet plan and supplements, remember to utilize the power of your mind to assist you to create outstanding results with your weight loss goals. These include designing goals that are realistic and positively stated, policing your self talk and ensuring it is focused on your success and visualizing what it will be like achieving your goal.

Non-Fasting Days – Not An Excuse to Binge

Whilst following the 5:2 Diet, it is important to understand that on the unrestricted days you should still try to follow a healthy eating plan. Do not consume more than four times the recommendedamount of calories that you use on your fasting days. Try to still include foods that are as whole and unprocessed as possible, with lots of fruit and vegetables, wholegrains, beans, pulses, nuts and olive oil as well as keeping to low-fat dairy foods, fish and poultry. If eating red meats, keep to the lean variety and keep it to a small quantity. Avoid lots of pasta, pizza and red wine.

Although you may worry that you will be tempted to feast out on non-fasting days, you will find that you will not wish to. You will quickly become in-tune with your body, recognising true hunger pangs and understanding how much food is really required for a substantial meal.

Although you have spent two days out of seven fasting, you must remember that you have only restricted your calorie in-take on the 2-diet days and the calories saved are to benefit you during yourdiet for the required weight loss. You must not be tempted on the non-fasting days to binge as you will find that it will then be a struggle to lose any weight. A good way to avoid falling into this trap is to pre-plan your daily food in-take and ensuring that you do not exceed four times the recommendedamount of calories as on a restricted day.

How to Suppress your Appetite for Longer:

There are many tricks to suppress the appetite for longer. Drinking plenty of water and choosing foods wisely, such as foods that are high in protein but not in calories as protein triggers the production of the full-up PYY hormone in the brain. Fruit and vegetables contain a lot of water, air and fibre which pack your gut, producing 'filling' signals in the small intestine. Apples, for exampleare about 25 per cent air and as they're digested, they produce the hormone GLP-1, which sends satiety (full up) signals to the brain.

The trick is to eat high-satiety foods at the beginning of a meal, which will cause you to feel fuller early on. A salad would be a good example for a starter, with a main meal containing protein which will leave you feeling satisfied. Eggs (high in protein), are a good chose for breakfast and will keep you going to lunch without the urge to snack beforehand.

By incorporating the 5:2 Fast Track Formula into your diet. Simply, by taking 2 capsules 30 minutes prior to your main meal (breakfast, lunch and dinner) will suppress your appetite, reducing cravings and feelings of hunger allowing you to get trim with a little less effort.

The 5:2 Fast Formula is a unique proprietary blend appetite suppressant derived from the root of the konjac plant. Combined with everyday vitamins such as B2 and B12 as well as minerals, such as Iron and Copper. The Fast Formula is designed to manage your appetite, calorie intake and help replace many of the vitamins and nutrients that are normally sacrificed when following a fasting diet. This will also help to curb your appetite on normal eating days, helping towards further weight loss as it creates a feeling of fullness due to having water-binding effects. You can significantly control your urge to snack between meals and also reduce the risk of tiredness which is a common complaint of fasting.

HOW DOES THE 5:2 WORK?

The 5:2 Fast Diet works by restricting your calorie intake significantly for two days out of seven. When people cut down on calories for all seven days of the week, they more often than not struggle with this standard approach, as they find themselves constantly having to think about their diet and what they are eating. We have found that with the 5:2 intermittent diet, where calories are restricted for only two days of the week, people find it far more achievable to lose weight.

We all carry a hormone called IGF-1 which is an insulin-like growth factor. This is important for growth when we are young, however not essentially required so much during adulthood where lower IGF-1 levels are healthier. There is now evidence that when the IGF-1 hormone is high in adults, particularly females over the age of forty. They can potentially have a decreased cancer risk as when the levels of IGF-1 are lower there is a less rapid turnover of cells. Fasting has now been proven tolower levels of IGF-1 as the levels do not stay depressed for long once you return to normal eating. The repeated on/off pattern of intermittent fasting could help to keep levels persistently lower and healthier.

Despite being bombarded with never-ending eating opportunities, our bodies are still designed with a biology and hormones that expect food to be scarce at some times and more plentiful at others. This is why many scientists believe intermittent fasting could be a particularly healthy and physiologically appropriate way to keep trim and fight ageing. Restricting yourself for only two days when you are able to eat as normal for the other five makes this an extremely appealing formula for weight loss and as well as delivering healthier, sustainable weight loss. The 2-day diet is nutritionally balanced to meet all your body’s needs.

This diet will work at making you feel less sluggish, bloated and more alert. On restricted diet days, you eat foods that are high in protein, healthy monounsaturated fats (such as nuts) and fruit and vegetables. These types of foods are satisfying and reduce the feelings of hunger. Feeling fuller makes you less likely to over-eat. The 2-day diet is deliberately low in carbohydrates which appear to make people feel hungrier. On the other five unrestricted days you continue eat a normal and healthy style diet.

The 2 day diet is designed to lower calories enough to enable you to lose weight, but without leaving you feeling hungry. It is nutritionally balanced so that all your vitamin, mineral and proteinrequirements are met and allows eating to fit into a normal busy lifestyle. Cutting down for just two days is easier than cutting down every day. Overall, people find it easier to maintain two strict days of significantly restricted calories than restricting calories by a much smaller amount every day.

A stricter regime is easier to follow than a less restricted diet simply because it is so strict and hasclear rules. 2-day dieters will know that as long as the diet is achievable, diets with restricted rules and limited choice can be easier to stick to than healthy-eating and low-calorie diets that have very flexible rules. In fact our bodies may even be biologically programmed for this intermittent pattern of eating. The idea of having spells of normal intake and spells of restriction isn’t new and some argue that it mimics the periods of food abundance from many years ago.

The 2-Day Diet retrains your eating habits by altering your habit of regularly consuming more food than we need. We are prone to eating overly large servings and having too many fatty or sugary foods or habitual snacking. The 2-day diet helps you to change the way you eat. Losing weight is really very simple. It means cutting your overall calories by at least one-quarter and reducing your intake of high-sugar foods and saturated fat. For many people this is easier said than done. The 2-day diet gives you a much needed break from your normal eating habits each week and helps you to develop vigilance and awareness of what you eat. These are vital skills which put you on the road to being in control of what you eat and therefore your weight.

Dramatically cutting calories for two days a week helps you to relearn how hunger feels and what a normal serving looks like. You will learn to eat more slowly, appreciate smaller amounts and really enjoy your food on both your two restricted days and on the five unrestricted days. This will help you to rediscover how much food you really need, rather than the amount you have become used to eating.

Dieters found that contrasting the two restricted days to their normal intake helped them identify what triggered them to eat and to overeat. If you’re a serial dieter you may have become stuck in the low-fat , low-protein and high-carbohydrate pattern of eating. A combination promoted by many mainstream diets. While this approach may work for some, others find it difficult to maintain a daily low-calorie intake with these regimes. They often find themselves overeating. The 2-day diet will help wane you away from these unhelpful patterns of eating.

For two days every week you have the opportunity to learn to resist temptation. This is a key dieting skill that you will need to practise until it becomes a habit. Being restrained on your diet and food cravings will reinforce your desire to be in control of your diet on the other days of the week.

Exemple de plan de l'alimentation - Femme Active

Vous trouverez ci-dessous des nouveaux plans diététiques qui fonctionnent. Chacun de ces régimes alimentaires a été conçu avec un nombre précis de calories, protéines, et glucides afin d’accélérer votre métabolisme, et votre énergie, et aide à promouvoir la perte de poids la plus rapide et la plus sûre possible.

En tant que femme active, vous participez à une activité sportive de trois à cinq fois par semaine, et vous  travaillez debout la plupart du temps.  Vous avez besoin de plus d’énergie par rapport à la femme sédentaire, c’est pourquoi ces plans diététiques sont conçus pour vous apporter des plats un peu plus riches en calories et en énergie.

En préservant votre rythme de vie, vous constaterez une perte de poids importante, tout en restant en bonne santé.

Afin d’adopter ce plan diététique, vous devez sélectionnez votre fourchette de poids (en kilos) en haut  de la colonne  de la table. Rappelez-vous qu’il  s’agit de votre poids actuel et non pas de votre poids visé.

Puis, une fois que vous avez trouvé votre poids, parcourez la colonne afin de voir les aliments à consommer durant chaque repas assigné.  Vous mangerez six fois par jour – trois repas et trois encas afin de contrôler votre taux de sucre et de vous éviter d’avoir faim.

Sachez que si vous avez des préférences spécifiques concernant certains aliments, vous pouvez remplacer des repas par d’autres, en restant sûr qu’ils appartiennent à la même catégorie.

Par exemple, si  vous préférez un déjeuner à un autre, vous pouvez avoir ce même déjeuner deux jours de suite, mais ne remplacez jamais un déjeuner par un diner.  Chaque repas contient un nombre spécifique de calories qui doit être respecté à la lettre pour réussir votre régime.

En plus de cela, chaque dimanche, vous aurez droit à un repas ‘cadeau’ (diner), durant lequel vous êtes autorisé à manger ce dont vous avez envie. Cela permet de réguler vos envies tout en  vous permettant de maintenir un taux moyen élevé de votre métabolisme.
 

Souvenez-vous juste de ne pas faire d’écart excessif lors de ce repas ‘cadeau’ – Servez-vous une portion de  votre plat préféré, et restez-en là. Si vous en abusez, vous risquez de  prendre du poids,  donc pensez-y tout en vous  faisant plaisir lors de ce repas.

Enfin, assurez-vous  que vous prenez vos pilules Phen375 deux fois par jour et que vous buvez un verre d’eau toutes les heures jusqu’au coucher.

Vous ne pouvez pas sous-estimer le rôle important que joue l’eau dans votre perte de poids. Rappelez-vous. Ne choisir que de l’eau pure et rien d’autre. Vous ne pouvez pas remplacer cette eau par du jus, du café ou n’importe quel autre boisson, seulement de l’eau.

Tâchez de respecter un maximum les plans diététiques et vous atteindrez un succès garanti !

The Sugar Addicts Diet

Sugar seems to be addictive to a certain degree. The human body learns fast that sugar means energy and that a lot of energy running through the system translates into a good overall mood. Unfortunately, the good mood lasts just as long as the amount of sugar in your blood stays above a certain level.

 Once the amount of sugar drops below that particular level, the mood changes and the body starts craving the next sugar fix that will make everything look good once more. In this respect, sugar seems to operate just like any other psychoactive substance or like adrenaline. You can learn to get high on all these substances.

The Sugar Addicts’ Diet focuses on breaking the addiction to sugar in order to prevent the mood swings that prompt the addict to reach out for one more sugary treat. These mood swings are hard to resist and the promise of the next fix is so tempting that many people have no idea they’re hooked on something that is not healthy. Truth be known, most addicts don’t want to face reality and understand the truth about their addiction and many people hooked on sugar or adrenalin have absolutely no idea that they’re using a substance to prop up their moods.

This diet is largely based on the Glycemic Index approach because its purpose is to weed out the sugary foods and replace them with foods belonging to a lower Glycemic Index that release their sugar content slowly into the bloodstream and do not trigger the rush. The basic idea is to identify hidden sugar in the foods you eat. Many people don’t know that it’s not just sweets or soft drinks that contain sugar, but also a lot of sauces, dips, yogurts and ready-to-eat foods have enough sugar in them to cause the mood swings.

It’s pretty easy to figure that this diet is more of a lifestyle choice than a proper diet. Of course you will lose weight by avoiding the foods rich in sugar, but we cannot be sure if this is the best way to go for a committed user. If you want to lose a certain number of pounds in a certain number of weeks, then you’re probably better off choosing another eating plan because nobody knows how fast you can lose weight under this one. 

Still, as a long-term maintenance solution, this eating plan is a good idea, especially for those who are used to eating a lot of sweets and are afraid that all those lost pounds will come back.

The No Carbs after 5PM Diet

Carbohydrates seem to be one of the banes of our existence. Sure they take away the nasty feeling of hunger that makes us reach out for foods that we should not eat, but they’re still on the list of most wanted culprits in many cases of big bellies and fat thighs. Small wonder that many diets focus directly on cutting off the access to carbohydrates. These are called low-carbs diets and are among the most successful diets around when the principle is applied correctly. So let’s discuss another low-carbs diet and how good is it for your health.

The “No Carbs after 5 PM” diet, also known as the Carbs Curfew diet among the aficionados, is based on the idea that you don’t have to try all that hard to lose weight. Simply cutting off all carbohydrates after 5 PM is supposed to be enough for weight loss purposes. Not eating any carbohydrates after 5 PM serves to lower the overall intake of calories for the day, while eating more protein than usual helps make you feel full in a healthy way. this is a simple eating plan that can be understood by anybody in no time. No complex formulae here.

The eating plan is spread across 28 days and lets the user exercise his or her choices regarding the breakfast, lunch and Carb Curfew Meal every day. Snacks are restricted to fruits and vegetables and there’s one mandatory pint (that’s about half a liter) of skimmed or semi-skimmed milk to be had every day. The eating plan comes with an exercise plan designed to help the weight loss process with long walks and exercising of the abdominal muscles. There are a lot of food recipes to choose from, which makes it all the easier to stick to the program.

This diet has nice potential. People who have trouble sticking to harsher low-carbs diets will appreciate the fact that the breakfast and lunch can be as rich in carbs as the users like. Not to mention that they don’t have to spend time counting every last unit of carbs or proteins, they don’t have to bother with blood sugar levels, glycemic index values or circadian rhythms. As long as you can remember that carbs are not allowed after 5 PM, you’re bound to succeed. On the negative side, however, it doesn’t take a lot of dieting experience to see that this diet may be slower than others. 

Also, there is no minimum weight lost promise, so be careful when setting your target weight.
