Hungry For Change - You Must Watch This Video

Disclose.tv - Hungry For Change

I am only about 10 per cent through this video at the time of posting but it is so good that I had to stop watching just to post it on here for you to watch too. It is mind-blowing! I'm sure the content will resonate with most of you seeking real solutions to your own healthy weight loss.

Imagine The Fat Shrinking

See it, believe it, act on it, achieve it.

Try A Little Bit Harder

A little extra effort than you’d ordinarily take, plus a little more action than you've been satisfied with, will equal a whole lot more success than you’d usually get....so try harder!

Weight Loss Begins On Your Plate

Weight loss is about 80% diet and 20% exercise, so make sure you're eating the right quantity and quality of food that will make success a certainty.

Get Rid Of The Fat First, Then You'll See Your Abs

Both belly bulge and love handles are about excess body fat, not lack of muscle. Crunches and ab exercises are therefore not the solution. The best way to reduce these problem areas is to reduce your overall body fat percentage, and we all know that that requires diet and exercise. -Jillian Michaels

Calories Are Part Of The Equation

Your weight is a balancing act, and calories are part of that equation. Fad diets may promise you that counting carbs or eating a mountain of grapefruit will make the pounds drop off. But when it comes to weight loss, it's calories that count. But don't forget the bottom line: The key to successful weight loss is a commitment to making permanent changes in your diet and exercise habits.–Mayo Clinic

The Health Benefits of Coffee

I never thought I'd ever create a blog post on the health benefits of coffee since all I'd ever heard about coffee in relation to health was how bad it can be for you. So you can imagine my surprise when I found the following Wikipedia entry on coffee:

Researchers involved in an on-going 22-year study by the Harvard School of Public Health state that "the overall balance of risks and benefits [of coffee consumption] are on the side of benefits." For example, men who drank six or more cups of coffee per day were found to have a 20% reduction in developing prostate cancer. 

Other studies suggest coffee consumption reduces the risk of being affected by Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, heart disease, diabetes mellitus type 2, cirrhosis of the liver, and gout. A longitudinal study in 2009 showed that those who consumed a moderate amount of coffee or tea (3–5 cups per day) at midlife were less likely to develop dementia and Alzheimer's disease in late-life compared with those who drank little coffee or avoided it altogether. 

The presence of antioxidants in coffee has been shown to prevent free radicals from causing cell damage. A recent study showed that roast coffee, high in lipophilic antioxidants and chlorogenic acid lactones, protected primary neuronal cell cultures against hydrogen peroxide-induced cell death.

Starvation Diets Do Not Work

It can seem that a drastic reduction of calories is a viable method to shed pounds quickly but this is not a long term solution. The only long term solution to weight gain is to find ways to develop new habits. Take it slowly, change one thing about your eating and exercise at a time. Don't try to change all your habits at once. Habit change is the key.
