What makes this time any different from the last 5, 10, 15, or more times you achieved success only to regain the weight and then some?

Inside these pages you will find step-by-step instructions on the 7 Essential Success Factors for maintaining your goal weight while living an organic, authentic, strong, lean, and healthy life. Beyond Weight Loss shows you how to maintain your weight loss through: - doing what you love and feel passionate about; - being where you want to be and doing what you want and with whom; - embracing who you are and what you do; - speaking your truth; - not fighting what is; - walking through open doors and leaving closed doors alone; - understanding that changes occur and knowing the right time, place, and conditions; - not taking things so personally; and - enjoying the moment and having the answers you seek.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary purpose of fitness and body composition standards in the U.S. Armed Forces has always been to select individuals best suited to the physical demands of military service, based on the assumption that proper body weight and composition supports good health, physical fitness, and appropriate military appearance. The current epidemic of overweight and obesity in the United States affects the military services. The pool of available recruits is reduced because of failure to meet body composition standards for entry into the services and a high percentage of individuals exceeding military weight-for-height standards at the time of entry into the service leave the military before completing their term of enlistment. To aid in developing strategies for prevention and remediation of overweight in military personnel, the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command requested the Committee on Military Nutrition Research to review the scientific evidence for: factors that influence body weight, optimal components of a weight loss and weight maintenance program, and the role of gender, age, and ethnicity in weight management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that the $600 billion-a-year global weight loss industry has a 95 percent failure rate for weight loss sustainability? Immaculate Consumption: The Path to Lifelong Weight Management offers a scientifically based weight loss program designed to empower dieters to achieve long-lasting results. After years of yo-yo dieting and spinning wheels trying various commercial diets, author Deena Solomon was unhealthy and emotionally disheartened. She realized the traditional weight loss methodology -- blind adherence to rules, forbidden foods, mandatory compliance -- failed to adequately prepare dieters to adapt to the ever-changing temptations, often leading to an unrecoverable relapse. The Immaculate Consumption method is refreshingly different. There are no forbidden foods or abstinence-only models. Using real-life, relatable interactions with former clients to illustrate her methods, Dr. Solomon asks dieters to become scientific researchers into their own food habits and psychology, enabling them to take personal responsibility for their eating habits in a positive way. And with a documented 84 percent success rate, the Immaculate Consumption model has proven successful in maintaining long-term weight loss. Learn how to: • Be the competent and proactive captain at the helm of your own journey • Use scientifically valid empirical evidence and apply it to your own custom weight loss plan • Profoundly change your relationship with food • Effectively use tools such as scientific observation and food ledgers to guide you during both everyday and anomalous meal situations • Shed the persistent shame and guilt from having "failed" at other commercial diets This revolutionary new approach to weight loss may help you shed those extra pounds for good.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you know why 92 percent of all diets fail? It's because they don't deal with the complexity of weight management. Losing weight is not simply a matter of cutting calories or increasing exercise. The body's management of calories involves every organ system and is influenced by such far-ranging variables as food and environmental allergies; prescription medications; environmental toxins; sexual, emotional, or physical abuse; and other highly personal factors. In fact, the secret of weight management is that it must be geared to your particular body and your special needs. Weight Success for a Lifetime is designed to help you discover how to understand your particular body, so you can lose unwanted pounds and keep them off forever. Noted weight-management expert Carol Simontacchi has designed this comprehensive weight-management program based on a 48-week curriculum, with twelve lessons in four modules. In the first module, Living Successfully with Food, she discusses such topics as what makes a healthy diet, why most diets don't work, and how to change your set point to help you lose weight more easily. She also covers how to cope with food cravings, food allergies, and binge eating. The second module, Getting the Body Back into Shape, covers such lifestyle issues as how to create a personal exercise plan, digestion, and ridding the body of toxins. The Hidden Issues of Weight Management, the third module, is devoted to medical issues, including depression, hormone dysfunction, problems related to stress, and side effects of prescription medications. The final module, Healing the Heart and the Mind, delves into how to have fun with food, dealing with abuse issues, fear of success and body image, dressing for personal beauty, and making health a lifelong journey. This all-inclusive, time-tested program is designed to help you achieve permanent weight loss forever. Book jacket.

Book excerpt: INTENTIONAL WEIGHT LOSSYour 5-Step Guideto Transform your body and Recapture Your Glow By Albert E. Takem M.D. If you're ready to lose weight sensibly and to naturally keep it off, this book's for you! Despite the latest diets and fitness trends, obesity is a serious problem in today's society. Overweight and obese rates continue to climb. INTENTIONAL WEIGHT LOSS offers a healthy nutrition and exercise plan for a lifetime. Dr. Takem keeps it simple as he presents five, easy-to-digest steps that can help you lose weight sensibly and to keep it off. You will not be bored to death with scholarly article references and research data but instead will be motivated by clear and simple instructions on how to get fit and healthy and to look and feel your very best. This easy-to-read handbook is for those who are serious about losing weight and achieving lifelong wellness (good health). With the uplifting, gentle yet powerful assistance of INTENTIONAL WEIGHT LOSS, holidays and parties can no longer be anxiety provoking but instead joyous and guilt-free occasions. Dr. Takem's 5 Action Steps can help you achieve your weight loss goals without the "yo-yo" effect of some many other fad diets. Dr. Albert E. Takem's INTENTIONAL WEIGHT LOSS is not a typical and temporary weight loss strategy. It's not a fad diet. It's not a trend that will come and go like so many others. It's real knowledge that you can use for your entire life to get fit and healthy and stay that way. Take that first step and start! Takem's first "Action Step" introduces readers to ways to turn the desire to lose weight into the decision to lose weight. As Lao Tzu once said: "The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." This first, single step can be difficult for people to take and it highlights how there is a distinct difference between the desire to lose weight and a decision to change your lifestyle and eating habits. Dr. Takem shows you how. Discover your "Whys." Dr. Takem helps you in creating your personal list of reasons for losing weight. If you follow through with this next step, you'll discover a powerful tool that can empower you to stay focused and get the results that you are seeking. Dr. Takem reminds us that the only one who can control personal weight loss decisions is YOU. Learn how to take control and empower yourself to live the healthy life of your dreams. Remove limiting beliefs that stop dieters from achieving their goals. Dr. Takem helps you to let go of those thoughts and beliefs that have held you back in fully realizing a life that is joyous, healthy and fully expressed. When you continue believing negative ideas, you restrict yourself and that can be a recipe for weight loss disaster. Learn how to take back control and be in charge of your subconscious. Clean out your kitchen and the pantry. Many weight-loss aspirants have a kitchen that is full of sinful goodies, like nutrition-less snacks, calorie packed candies, fat-ladened ice cream and so on and so forth. These kinds of foods have no place in a dieter's new life. Dr. Takem shows you how to "break up" with them and start a new and far healthier relationship with food. You can do this and the doctor will show you how! Focus on low-calorie foods, not low-fat or low-carb fads. All the rage have been the litany of "low-fat" and low carbohydrate diets over the last twenty or so years. However, the truth is that low carb and low fat diets and foods are not the best elements of a solid and long-lasting weight-loss plan. Dr. Takem explains the "hows" and the "whys" and helps you to achieve your healthy dieting objectives.
Download or read book Be Who You Are written by Dr. Henri Marcoux and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2014-01-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WEIGHT MANAGEMENT IS NOT ABOUT LOSING WEIGHT to become someone you are not. Weight loss programs can help you lose weight, but fail in the long run because the starting point is based on a negative image of yourself. Successful weight management only works when you feel confident and happy about who you are and consciously choose to lose weight (or not) from a positive perspective. Managing weight is really about managing yourself into being the best you can be, loving yourself and letting your body find the shape that best suits who you are. Managing weight is not about losing pounds. It is about losing what is weighing you down! “You cannot be anything but yourself so you might as well...GET INTO IT!"
