Well done for making the decision to lose weight. I have created a list of 17 simple ways to lose weight. This should give you guidance and inspiration to choose the best method for you and reach your goals.

1) Drink Iced Water

When you drink iced water your body uses calories to heat the water back up to your body temperature. Do not drink excessive amounts of water though as it can damage your health. 2 Litres a day should be plenty and drink more when exercising.

2) Walk for 30-45 Minutes a Day

Your should do light exercise daily. This will ensure you burn off enough calories to reach your weight goals. Start slowly and build it up. After a few days you could try a light jog or even a run. Just remember not to overdo it.

3) Eat Small Meals 5-6 Times a Day

Do a search on the internet for self help programs and prepare to be amazed. I am a self help guy from way back too, and I am amazed at all that is available for purchase.

You can find a self help site for anything, I think, which is a tribute to both American ingenuity and marketing.

We seem to be adept at finding a problem and creating a program to solve it.

The problem with some of our self help programs is that sometimes they are very light weight, implying that a solution is very easily achieved in the very short term.

When I think of self help, I think of Alcoholics Anonymous, or Narcotics Anonymous, or Cocaine Anonymous, or I think of the market for weight loss, or divorce or marriage or relationship aids, anger management, or an emerging market in regards to brain fitness.

Motivation can be a hard thing to come by when it comes to exercise. Of all of the people who actively workout, only a minority of them have a fitness partner. Quite often, people need that small dose of motivation to keep going when involved in a fitness regimen. Working out can be an all consuming and enjoyable experience when shared with someone who has similar fitness goals. Unless you are the type that just likes to be by yourself all of the time, a fitness partner can bring you to higher levels of fitness more than one would think. There is a possibility that you are thinking that a fitness partner will just slow you down — this could not be a more false statement. It is a tragedy that more folks are not enjoying the benefits of a workout buddy.

Fitness workouts have many benefits. If you conceive your work out is seemly routine, its time to discover fresh motivation. Here are eleven points on physical fitness and exercise that could be just the motivation you require:

1. Prior to beginning any exercise plan you should get a complete physical from your physician. A clean notice of health is motivational.

2. Exercising can be executed anytime and anywhere. For instance, exercise while standing in line at the market by practicing deep breathing techniques. Likewise, if you conceive that you dont possess enough time to exercise, try performing a fitness exercise 3 times daily for 10 minutes. This will amount to 30 minutes of exercise per day.

3. If you are confused by all the physical fitness data, consider meeting with a professional. A personal trainer can help you picture the best exercises for your body type, weight and physical fitness level.

Previously, many of us considered it a luxury to choose to reinvent ourselves or our businesses. At present, many find themselves thrust into this position by the economy.

Last year, before effects of the economy really kicked in, I had my moment where I decided to reinvent particular aspects of how I experience my life and business. Like an ever-expanding number of people around the globe (and since ancient times), I chose to even more consciously use Law of Attraction which I’m now, more than ever, inclined to call Law of Vibration or even Law of Vibration Equals Matching (LOV EM).

I’m not about to tell you this path is one big rosy picture or that I never address challenges; but there have been some spectacular inner and outer results. Any of you who deliberately use LOV may have discovered that, though it seems simple based on what you read or hear, it’s not always easy. I’m not saying it has to be difficult; but  . . .

Did you ever try to get rid of a harmful behavior, only to be unsuccessful? There is an extensive list of universal problem behaviors that people often try to alter or do away with using hypnosis. Possibly the most common are: Overeating and weight loss; stop smoking; quit chewing tobacco; stop nail biting; increasing self-confidence; overcoming insomnia and sleeping better; improving memory; and managing stress.

There are two types of stress. The first type is acute stress. That’s the kind where your body senses danger and adapts to the threat by making physical changes which enable you to quickly get out of harms way. This occurs because your body secretes chemicals and stress hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol. These chemicals are secreted in response to your thoughts and cause your body to prepare for “fight or flight.” For example, let’s say you are crossing the street and you notice a car quickly approaching. You see the car which causes you to feel fear and anxiety. Your body then adapts to the stress by secreting chemicals and hormones which send messages to your heart, lungs and organs in order to prepare them to handle your crisis. Your heart rate increases, blood flow is diverted to muscles allowing for quick movement, your pupils dilate and more oxygen flows through your lungs for an extra burst of energy. These changes allow you to react quickly, enabling you to jump onto the curb to safety. Within a short period of time your body calms down and things return to normal. This protective mechanism is crucial to your safety and is designed to protect you against danger.

Food cravings and over eating are a symptom of us trying to tranquilise unresolved emotional issues that are leaving us with feelings such as emptiness, deprived and inadequate.
These feelings in turn come from life experiences which in some way have taught us that this is how my life is. This can be one event or many events in our lives that contribute to the writing on our mental walls.

If your thinking about food from the moment you wake right through the day and no amount of food will fill this empty feeling that is inside of you. How ever much food you eat you are never satisfied because really it isn’t about food it is about you tranquilising your unresolved emotional issues.
