Losing weight
by making healthy choices
in mind and body.

Losing weight is definitely a state of mind...

Do you listen to your body? Not you in your mind but your body.Your body will let you know how you are doing with what you are doing.

When you are taking care of yourself and make good choices, your body will have:

* Energy.

* A positive mood.

* Good health and skin.

* Be in physical shape.

* Feel and enjoy all that you do.

When your body does not like your choices:

* It upsets your mood.

* You feel anxious, irritable, depressed.

* Frequent headaches.

* Indigestion.

* Aches and pains.

* Fatigue.

* Excess weight.

* Skin problems.

* Allergies.

* Sinus or respiratory congestion.

These symptoms are typical today but are not normal!

This is a major national health concern, there is a greater risk for:

Diabetes

Gallbladder disease

Hypertension (visit Normal Blood Pressure Diet for more information)

Hyperlipidemia (high lipids{fats} in the bloodstream)

Sleep apnea

Coronary artery disease

Osteoarthritis of the knees

Gout

Cancer

Low back pain

The body has a messaging system, the cells talk to each other by chemical messengers like hormones and prostaglandins, they also control cycles of:

~ Rest and activity ~
~ Mood ~
~ Maturation ~
~ Reproduction ~
~ Immune responses ~
~ Metabolic rate and appetite (very good for weight loss) ~

When you make healthy choices you will have the right chemical messengers in your body. You will see:

Your metabolism increase
Appetite will decrease
Mood will be uplifting
Immune system will be strong

Look and feel better instead of struggling with your body. You and your body will be working together rather than against it with you trying to control it with willpower. The wonderful chiropractor group that I go to has great information on health, they have a program called "Maximized Living Makeover ". They talk about an exercise called "Surge Training" which I think is a good example of your body’s chemical messengers and it's a great way for losing weight.

An example of surge is exercising for 20 seconds to bring your heart rate up, rest for 20 seconds, 3 times, rest 2 minutes and repeat the entire cycle 3 times.

With the high intensity, short-duration exercise, your body responds by increasing the hormones and physiology you need to burn fat during exercise, but also your body responds by maintaining these benefits for hours after you exercise.
