I’m going to be honest with you: losing weight isn’t easy. Keeping weight off isn’t any easier. It takes discipline. It takes some major changes in your life. It takes a little motivation, too.
Not ready to make such a large commitment yet? In order to make the task of losing weight or leading a healthier lifestyle in general a little easier, it’s best to take it one step at a time. If you break it down into small steps you’ll find it to be much easier than taking the huge leap many dieters do. In fact, many of those who do take it as a big leap tend to revert back to their old ways more so than those who break it down.
The research, conducted at the University of Pennsylvania, focused specifically on the terminology used by doctors when discussing weight problems with overweight patients. But for anyone who has occasion to discuss weight or size with an overweight person, whether as a patient, an employee, a customer, or a loved one, there’s a useful lesson in the research: Don’t let your message get lost in your words.
It’s a sensitive issue. Terms for overweight have long been used in very negative ways, against almost anyone. ‘You big, fat ‘ is appended to the beginning of almost any schoolyard epithet: liar, bully, coward, braggart, etc., regardless of whether the subject is overweight or not. And if the subject is overweight, then ‘fat’ serves as an epithet all by itself.Discriminatory treatment and pervasive prejudice against the overweight are well-documented among both children and adults, and negative attitudes about them are almost as universal as they are undeserved.The truth is that overweight and obesity have long been seen as a moral or aesthetic failing. Gluttony, after all, is one of the seven deadly sins of biblical notoriety. But the causes of overweight in today’s society are a lot more complex than they were in biblical times.
Step Three: Eat More Veggies
I’ll admit: this isn’t easy. I have a hard time with it myself. Regardless, vegetables are high in nutrition and low in calories. You’ll feel full after eating them but you won’t have consumed as many calories as you might have if you were, for example, eating potato chips.

The accuracy of these estimates depends more on the tested person’s unique body fat distribution rather than on how many sites the tester measures. While using this method of measuring body fat percentage, the tester must ensure that he uses a fixed pressure in very specific locations. The skin-fold method is quite reliable as a measure of body composition changes over a certain period, even though it may not give an accurate reading of actual body fat percentage. In the skin-fold method to estimate body fat percentage, a lot depends on the type of caliper used as well as on the technique. It applies to only subcutaneous adipose tissue.Go to site http://www.crofting.org/index.php/forums/member/93677/
