This is a review of the freeweightloss.com website. The author makes a lot of very good points in regards to the obesity epidemic, the causes for weight gain, problems with fad diets, etc. However, this website does not discuss the route cause of the obesity epidemic which is insulin insensitivity.

Insulin insensitivity is the key cause in BOTH obesity and diabetes. There are many problems with this type of insensitivity including but not limited too; central obesity, high blood pressure, elevated triglycerides and bad cholesterol, low levels of good cholesterol, higher rates of blood clotting, and inflammation. All of which increase our risks for developing cardiovascular disease and diabetes and increase our risk for premature death.

What causes this insulin insensitivity? Poor diets of high glycemic foods, sedentary life styles, lack of exercise are all main culprits for this condition. Essentially this causes the body to become less sensitive to insulin it produces. As this insulin resistance multiplies, our bodies produce more and more of it. The body just can't compensate for this abundance of insulin in our bodies and as a direct result, we start to gain a lot of weight in our middle section - central obesity, blood pressure and bad cholesterol levels increase, and we have more inflammation.

These conditions lead to an acceleration in our bodies natural aging process in our arteries and lead to premature deaths due to both cardiovascular disease and diabetes (amputations, kidney failure, blindness and premature death.) Compounding this problem is that it becomes very difficult to lose this extra weight. Think of a sponge holding onto water, this is our insulin holding onto fat.

The obvious answer is to make the necessary life style changes to live a healthier life. Here in lies the crucial point in losing weight, keeping it off, and living a healthier life. The foundation in any diet or weight loss program must be a diet rich in low glycemic foods.

How do we determine what foods are low glycemic? We do this by looking at the glycemic index. According to Wikipedia, the glycemic index ("GI") is defined as the "measure of the effects of carbohydrates on blood levels. Carbohydrates that break down quickly during digestion and release glucose rapidly into the bloodstream are high glycemic. Carbohydrates that break down more slowly, releasing glucose more gradually into the bloodstream are low glycemic."

The GI has three main classifications of foods and these classifications consist of; LOW GLYCEMIC - foods with scores of less than 55, MEDIUM GLYCEMIC - foods with scores of 56 to 69, and HIGH GLYCEMIC - foods with scores of 70 and above. High glycemic foods cause a rapid release of glucose and therefore the body must release an abundance of insulin to counter it.

Make no mistake about it, there is a war happening inside our bodies and if we are not very careful, we will lose precious years off of our life. The golden rule to long term health and to help control the rapidly increasing obesity epidemic, is that we must build our nutrition on low glycemic foods.

In terms of losing weight. The author is correct that it does take time and effort to lose weight. If you see any advertisements trying to sell miracle pills or losing a lot of weight in a very short time, be CAREFUL. No such magic pill exists and you are subjecting your health to even more serious consequences. We live in fast paced society and we all want results immediately and don't have the patience for delayed gratification. Patience really is a virtue.

Healthy weight loss will take time and consistent effort but the good news is there are some healthy weight loss programs out there that are designed to provide long term solutions for life. You will lose the weight and keep the weight off.

I used to be 50 pounds over weight myself. My cholesterol was very high and even at my young age, I was already showing precursor signs for diabetes, liver disease, and cardiovascular disease. I was scared to death. Knowing most fad diets are actually more hazardous to our health than beneficial, I spent a lot of time researching healthy solutions for long term weight loss. During this time I learned about the glycemic index, its vital role in controlling weight gain, and found a clinically proven weight loss system that consists of certified low glycemic foods.

After following this program I lost 50 pounds in 12 weeks and have regained my health. I feel great and love the way I look! I am now very passionate about helping others lose weight by following the same step by step clinically proven weight loss program I did. The program works because it resets the metabolic rate thus curbing our cravings for sugars, carbohydrates, junk food etc and then begins to melt away those unwanted pounds, especially around the mid section.

While you are losing weight you are also detoxifying your body, strengthening your bodies immune system, boosting your energy levels, improving sleeping patterns, balancing your hormones, and helping your skin look younger and more vibrant. The program is very convenient and great for everyone, especially mothers trying to lose that baby fat, and working professionals who don't have time to hit the gym for 2 hours a day. If anyone would like more information on the low glycemic program I followed and/or list of healthy low glycemic foods, I would be more than happy to share this helpful information.

Sincerely,
Jeff Cabral

Although the title of this article is 'easy weight loss diets', I am not sure about it. Is any weight loss diet really easy? I don't think so. Enter the market for weight loss diets and you will be bombarded with information about different kinds of diets like the atkins diet and the south beach diet.

But which one is really best for you? Will a low carbohydrate diet work for you? Or will a normal high protein diet be the best one?

The worse part about diets is that what may work wonders for others may not work for you. Every individual is unique and hence has unique needs and requirements. This needs to be analyzed first before plunging to any weight loss program.

Why it doesn't work?

To understand why weight loss diets do not work for you, it is important to have some information on body genetics and metabolism.

Every human being has a metabolism rate or the ability to burn off calories. Similarly, every human being has a particular body structure. Some have broad shoulders and hips with minimum fat content. Others have droopy shoulders with a lot of fat deposits around the waist. This depends a lot on the genetics of the person.

So if you are genetically pear shaped, do not expect that easy weight loss diets will change you into a muscle machine. Or if you are an obese girl genetically, do not even attempt to turn into tyra banks. That's not going to happen.

Have realistic goals

Set yourself realistic goals and start slow. For example, if you are starting your diet plan on New Year, target a weight loss of 4 to 10 pounds by March.

This should be achievable provide you stick to your diet and exercise routine. And make sure that you stay motivated on the diet. A lot of people quit midway due to lack of results. Perseverance is a virtue that you definitely need to succeed.

There isn't a woman on earth who doesn't sneak a peak at celebrity photos every now and then. And more often than not, the ones that really get your attention, whether in the supermarket checkout line or in the doctor's office, are the photos of your favorite female stars looking absolutely awful. Well, maybe not awful, but overweight.

Why is that?

Does it make you feel better about yourself?

You may snicker on the inside knowing that they deal with normal issues like you, but rarely, if ever, do you consider how the stars, themselves, feel about the photos. Celebrity privacy rights aside, we're talking about women who would probably rather die than have an unflattering picture of themselves splashed across the pages of a popular tabloid.

Tyra Banks, a classic beauty and the first African-American model to don the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, was photographed at the beach in a bathing suit-looking significantly heftier than she did on that '97 S.I. cover. Tyra was outraged. And unlike stars that keep mum, waiting for the pictures to fade away, she spoke out.

She used her popular talk show as a forum to vent her anger. She showed the unflattering picture to the audience, and stood next to it while wearing the same bathing suit, looking gorgeous. She spoke her mind to those who, "...Have something nasty to say about women who are built like me ... women who have been picked on, women whose husbands put them down, women at work or girls at school - I have one thing to say to you: Kiss my fat a--."

The audience and women everywhere, cheered like mad. But why? What makes women care so much about Tyra Banks' weight?

For so many of women, Tyra Banks represents is the real woman's model. Sure, she's got a body that most women dream of but, in the modeling world, it's not even considered to be the "ideal" body shape. Most models are built like boys-super skinny and lacking the feminine curves-and Tyra Banks has a large bust, with the hips to match, and she flaunts it well.

She's also goofy and funny. She's not afraid to make fun of herself, she can sometimes be a bit clumsy, and she always seems to be having the time of her life. Women can relate to her better than other models because Tyra gives more of her personality, with her show, she tackles the issues that women care most about.

She's also brutally honest about her weight-a huge relief after years of hearing famous beauties act like it's the most natural thing in the world to be stick thin. She talks about hating when her favorite jeans give her a muffin top, or how the producers of her television show prefer her to weight more than 145 pounds, but less than 155 pounds. She is also honest about being 30 pounds heavier, today, than she was on that famous swimsuit cover.

Women take an interest in Tyra Banks' weight because they believe she cares. Women respect her. Tyra is a beautiful woman who simply won't starve herself to fit into society's definition of beauty.

Be among the few women this year that will actually lose weight and live longer, healthier lives.

This sounds a bit tricky and some fancy dialogue from an ad commercial, "how to train your..." Well jokes apart, I hope you under stood what i actually meant. Yes,  It is definitely possible, not only to train your stomach but also reduce or shrink it! Well firstly you simply need to understand some facts, eat right and learn or I would rather say, master correct eating habits. Please remember that diet pills, weight loss gells are not at all save and ever lasting. So what exactly do we have to do to learn about eating and training your tummy?

First and fore most thing is learn, under stand the feeling of a just born baby's hunger strategy. It only eats when it is hungry! No according to any one's particular schedule, but own body's biological schedule.  It is simply understanding hunger, and most important thing is, reaching the feeling of over eating. i.e. the moment you feel you are full, simply stop eating. Over eating, tickling our taste-buds or entertaining your tummy are biggest factors of increase in  weight of most women and men. Well and how do we do that? Simply by reaching a point of understanding a limit of our hunger. Also please bear in mind, each and every individual have a different limits. Also it is not that difficult like getting a medical test done. Also this limit changes not only with person to person but also weather, climate, age, behaviors and habits.

One of the biggest trick or revelations is there is not limit or any particular sign of over eating. There is simply fact or a thumb rule stating to limiting your meal quantity wise and its duration and increasing its tenure. I.e. "you ought to have few meals a day, but in small quantities"

Weight Loss fact File!

* Please do not follow or attend to any tough or strict diet. They actually never work and their effects are very short lived.

* Instead of going on a diet, simply adjust or shift your way of living or lifestyle.

* Always remember, dieting should not include any type of fasting or starving. Simple key to loosing weight by eating right.

* Remember, there is not substitute or an excuse for exercise. Without any exercise there will be ZERO results.

* Learn and understand thoroughly about your sugar free foods or eatables. know properly what are its contents. And always follow golden rule, never consume anything too much even if it is not harmful.

* Remember, each individual is a different person altogether with different dietary system. Avoid following your friends, colleagues or your neighbors dieting plan. What worked for them may not only work for you but also may cause damage.

Right after learning about the extra sugar increases your weight, today's market have shifted their USP to Sugar Free products. These are nothing but the products with zero sugar content and filled with artificial flavors or artificial sweeteners. Actually you might not be aware but these sugar free alternatives or sweeteners or artificial flavors cause more damage than natural sugar! Yes! Its true. Interestingly it works out in simple psychological way tat when we take natural sugar contained foods we do realize about the quantity and there are high chance we would restrict that intake up to certain level. But when we eat sugar free alternative foods we do not have any control or limit on how much we intake. Hence it is advisable to limit ourselves from eating those sweeteners or flavors, understand their content and then have it since they would cause more damage to the body than providing necessary glucose or nutrients to the body which natural sugar provide. 

Everyday eating low fat food and feeling about doing right thing?We are actually fans and fanatics about low fat food available in the market today. Companies mention low fat on food or trans-fat or fat free on their products which actually does not make any sense. There are trans fat added to these fast foods that keep them fresh for longer time but in turn give you bad cholesterol in exchange. Instead it would be better to eat normal fat food made in your own kitchen! Yes! you can definitely have all your fired foods right with fats and cholesterol but all made in your own house. The trick is simple is actually no trick. Whatever you cook at your home name it crunches or cookies or fries, all would be made in good quality oil (perhaps fat free good in healthy cholesterol), pure substance and no compromise in quality. Moreover you would be eating those stuff while it is still hot or fresh and in limited quantity since you will be already aware of its contents. Plus this would actually be more nutritious than your packet fast food fat free snacks. 

Losing weight is an effort to be undertaken without losing your bone density, without losing your muscles and weight bearing capacity. Instead with losing your weight, your body should be toned up, a considerable and fair increase in weight bearing capacity of muscles, and increase in stamina in your body. In a healthy weight loss one should actually feel free, relaxed, light with whatever weight lost by you. whether it is five pounds or fifteen pounds. loosing any kind of weight actually give you a feeling of brightness, increase in attention and give a fair natural glow to your body. Again loosing weight would only work out when you shall start eating in a smart and healthy diet combined with devotional exercise, not harsh. That is the actual key for smart and proper weight loss. 

Dieting on extreme level does not work because there is something extreme in it. Hence extreme dieting is not only difficult to maintain but also very harmful and dangerous to your body. The term "Detox Diet" has actually become very fashionable these days, which even understanding what does it actually mean! So suppose, "whatever you have been eating like anything or everything lately is not good and toxic and actually not good for your body. And suddenly you get your inner voice shouting and making you a tamed pet from a wild animal by eating all possible veggies and fruits that you even haven't heard it or had it before in life" Actually detox diet means removing all toxic substance from your body after understanding your body structure metabolically as well as emotionally. This is way the fitness or real health trainers understand from their core level.

First thing first, Diet simply does not mean that harsh punishment of fasting or avoiding all kinds of foots that cause weight gain or etc. Diet is simply controlling, understanding your metabolism and a general representation of what your body will be comfortable to have for life. Tell me can you eat your whole life just fruits or bitter gourd juice. Please understand the word dieting or diet does not mean starving or avoiding food intake. It simply means to eat controlled diet, reduce weight healthily and gradually. 

Your surroundings, mind set and food habits are responsible for a healthy weight loss. Please find across proper solutions that can increase your chance for reducing weight.

Your Surrounding:

Have a good motivating surrounding around yourself. It becomes quite easy when you are surrounded with your family, friends, co-workers who keep you motivated and helping for keeping focus. When you are surrounded by like minded people like these, ensure that they understand the importance of your weight loss and try to contribute as much as possible for maintaining the same.

They need to understand to play their part of being supportive by not-eating, buying junk and fat foods in front of you, or for you, or invite you for those kinds of lunch, dinner, parties etc. Just by doing all these they are not only helping you be refraining from giving weight gain foods but also helping you to resist the temptation of eating them.

Please be alert of people who will tempt or ruin your focus on loosing weight. Believe or not there will definitely be some set of friends or family members who might be always ready to give you a little "treat" consisting of high calorie blast. These might say, since you have followed your diet so religiously and so well you might as well as deserve some small Boost. Be careful and stay on alert for these kinds of people.

In case you do not get any support from your friends and family members you are free to move on to your colleagues or co-workers. You may want to join your local weight loss community or join a forum of like minded people who care, plan, preach and practice weight loss. Also do not forget to include your family physician or doctor before you plan or begin your weight loss.

Please all sorts of inspirational quotes, pictures and other type of motivational artifacts that would keep you focused towards your goal of loosing weight. You may put those objects in at places where you tend to visit or be often. Like fridge magnets, study table, work cabin or a cubicle etc.
