Secrets to Losing Weight

EAT FAST, GET FAT
If you are thin, it takes up to 12 minutes or more for your brain to receive a signal your full
If you are obese, it takes 20 minutes or more for your brain to receive a signal your full

KEEP A FOOD JOURNAL
If you write down your calories, you lose calories at twice the rate

BEFORE WORKING OUT
Drink 1oz of water per 10lbs of weight. Example : Someone who is 150lbs should drink 15oz of water before working out, without it your cells won't function properly and you will get tired a whole lot faster. Even drink water throughout your workout, it will keep you hydrated, your body won't get over heated and can keep you going.

LISTEN TO MUSIC
Listening to music while working out can make you workout longer and increase your intensity of your workout

EXERCISE
Exercising for at least one hour a week is good for your heart

HEAVY WEIGHT
Using heavier weights you will burn 25% more calories and will build more lean muscle mass

WEIGHT LIFT
Whiling weight lifting, stand on one leg, it will improve your balance and build your core muscles

GOT MILK?
Drink milk after a workout, it helps repair your muscles and helps replace your energy

EGG IT
People who started with an egg (high in protein) breakfast instead of a bagel lost 65% more weight

TUBE GONE
People who watch more then 2 hours of TV a day eat more calories, each hour of TV children watch they tend to eat an extra 167 calories, so imagine how many it would be for an adult, so those 2 hours of TV a day could be another 334 calories or more you eat, cutting back could save you an amazing 2,338 calories or more a week, almost an additional POUND+ just from the TV

STAND, DON'T SIT
Standing an extra hour or two a day can burn an additional 300 calories

Combine ditching the tube and standing instead of sitting for those one to two hours, you could be saving yourself not only 2,338 calories but also burning an additional 2,100 calories a week

INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGES
Put quotes around your room, house, most importantly the kitchen to help you stay on track. Or even put old and current photos of you up, even put picture of you at your heaviest in your purse, so when your hungry or get cravings for bad foods, look at that picture, look how far you've come, do you want to go back to that? is it REALLY worth it? Save yourself. Example: "You've come too far to take orders from a cookie" "Think thin, be thin" and many many others

LOL
Laughing different times throughout the day, you can burn 20% more calories

So I haven't been doing so good lately.. well I have but no at the same time. I'll eat good 80-90% of the time throughout the day, but the other 10-20% is just BAD.. And I'll still workout. It just seems like that 10-20% makes me feel like I just ruined the entire day(s) before and I feel guilty. I hate having cravings for foods, its like an addiction. But drinking and doing drugs I've never felt like I ruined "the entire day" nor have I felt "guilty" okay, maybe I have but its a different "guilty" of not wanting to get in trouble, health problems or see myself go in a negative direction to the point of going so deep into the addictions that I've lost ME. Re-reading this..
Addiction is an addiction and you are as sick as your secrets.

Breakfast : Meal Replacement Drink

I got the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred the other day
I did level 1 after I did my other workout, and wow I could only get through the first 10 mins before I could do no more. . .And my muscles have been sore for 2 days ha
I'm better now : ) she kicks your butt though

I'm about to do the ABCircle Pro a 500 count from side-to-side on
100 count on each leg up (one at a time)
100 count up-and-out at same time

then I'm going to try the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred again at level 1
I definitely don't think this video is for beginners, more like intermediate and beyond.

Breakfast : Meal Replacement Drink
Lunch : (after workout) 1/2 Turkey wrap and vegetables

I need to drink lots of water : )

I've had people ask what the bike I workout on looks like and what the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred is. . .I took a picture of the bike and I'll put up more information about the JM30DS after I'm done making lunch.
