Growing up, weight had always been a struggle for me. But by cutting out junk food, packing healthy lunches to take to work, and lifting weights and taking spinning classes at the gym four or five times a week, I lost 10 pounds for the wedding. At 145 pounds, I knew my toned arms looked good in my strapless dress. Because our wedding took place in Portugal, my husband, Rob, and I planned a big party at home in August for friends and family who couldn't make it. By then, I had already started to slip: I wasn't going to the gym or bringing lunches to work anymore. My wedding dress still fit, but it was much more snug this time around.</div><div id=""><br /><strong>"I gained the married 15."</strong></div><div id=""><br />As we settled into married life, my focus slipped even further. Going to the gym couldn't compare to snuggling on the couch with Rob and ordering takeout. For breakfast, I'd eat a muffin or a sausage-egg-and-cheese sandwich. For lunch, I'd order a bag of chips and a lobster roll oozing with mayo. The takeout guy even started to recognize my voice and would ask if I wanted "the usual." A year after the wedding, I reached an all-time high of 165 pounds. It was a huge blow. I'd tell Rob, "I'm not the same woman you married." I considered returning to the gym, but everyone there had seen me slim down for the wedding—it was too embarrassing to go back having regained the weight.</div><div id=""><br /><strong>"I could control only myself."</strong></div><div id=""><br />In October 2006, I went to the doctor for a checkup and was shocked to learn that I had borderline high cholesterol. No one in my family has high cholesterol; I knew my poor eating habits were to blame. A month later, I was faced with a major heartbreak: My parents, who had been married for 32 years, decided to separate. I thought their marriage would last forever, but I knew there was nothing I could do to fix it. That realization made me think about what I could control—and that was me.</div><div id=""><br /><strong>"I knew I could do it because I'd done it before."</strong></div><div id=""><br />I decided to lose 31 pounds by my 31st birthday, six months later. I set up a reward system for motivation: After I lost the first 10 pounds, I would get eyelash extensions; after 20 pounds, I would get a tattoo; after 30, I'd get my nose pierced. I knew I could do it because I had lost weight before. I aimed to eat 1,200 to 1,400 calories per day. For breakfast, I wrapped eggs and fat-free cheese in a whole-wheat tortilla with a side of sliced tomato. For lunch, I'd fill a whole-wheat wrap with grilled chicken, or I'd pack a Kashi microwavable meal. For dinner, Rob grilled fish or chicken. If we ordered takeout, we chose healthier options, like sushi. I also started drinking more water and headed back to the gym. This all took planning—instead of crashing on the couch after work, I had to pack my gym bag and prepare food. But after a few weeks, I fell into a routine and still found time to cuddle with Rob.</div><div id=""><br /><strong>"It felt great to follow through!"</strong></div><div id=""><br />My first month back at the gym, I did 30 minutes on the elliptical machine or StairMaster each day. During December, the scale didn't budge. But I started to feel better physically and emotionally; Rob would even comment on my good spirits. The next month, I got back into spinning and weight training, and by the end of January, I'd lost five pounds! Around that time, I started a blog on sparkpeople.com. I would post my workout plan for the following week and then come back and list the workouts I'd actually done. The blog also gave me a place to write about my ups and downs—like the time I ate three ice cream bars in one sitting. Soon, other members were commenting. They'd say, "Great job at the gym!" or, "I've had moments like that." We were all a part of a community of support.</div><div id=""><br />After that initial weight loss, I consistently lost five pounds a month. I reached my 10-pound mark in January (and got my eyelash extensions!), then my 20-pound goal in April. I got a tattoo on my back: wings, which symbolize strength, faith, and love. After that, some weeks I'd lose three pounds, but other times the scale wouldn't move or I'd gain a pound, which was frustrating. I kept telling myself that the scale would eventually move if I kept working at it. </div><div id=""><br /><strong>"The first time I stepped on a treadmill, I ran three miles!"</strong></div><div id=""><br />In April, I was on a business trip and the elliptical machine at the hotel gym was broken, so I was forced to get on the treadmill. I was petrified of running—it was way out of my comfort zone—but I told myself I would try to run one mile, which turned into two, which turned into three. It felt amazing! When I got back to the gym, I told my friend Yael about my accomplishment. She suggested that we run a 10-mile race in July. Crazily, I agreed—six months before, I couldn't even run a mile! Yael helped me stick to the plan. By my 31st birthday, in May, I was down to 138 pounds. I hadn't reached my goal, but it didn't matter; my goal had shifted from a number on the scale to completing a 10-mile race.</div><div id=""><br /><strong>"Once I started running, I couldn't stop."</strong></div><div id=""><br />I feared that after the 10-mile race, I would fall back into old habits, like I'd done after my wedding. So by race day in July, I had already signed up for a half-marathon in October and a full marathon in December. I wound up running alone since Yael was called away on a last-minute business trip. I've never been so petrified. Rob kept telling me that I could do it. And I did! I then completed both the half and full marathons, and by the end of the year I was down to 132 pounds. (Even though I'd reached the 30-pound mark, I had second thoughts and decided not to get my nose pierced.) Next, I signed up for a triathlon without knowing how to ride a bike or go underwater without holding my nose. With Rob's help on the bike and a trainer in the pool, I was able to complete that too. Training together has brought Rob and me closer. He always loved me, but now he tells me that he has the hottest wife in the world.</div><div id=""><br /><strong>"I'm so proud that I never gave up on myself."</strong></div><div id=""><br />My next goal is to qualify for the Boston Marathon, and I dream of doing an Ironman competition. I never want to stop pushing myself physically. I still blog. I like to read my older posts and reflect on all I've gone through. I feel good knowing that I might help or inspire other people. When I look in the mirror, I smile at my reflection. It took hard work, but the payoff was worth it. After all these years, I found an athlete inside me.</div><div id=""><br /><strong>What Magda Learned to Do:</strong></div><ul><li class="textList"><strong>Keep creating incentives.</strong> "I didn't want to fall into old habits after my 10-mile race, so I signed up for a half and a full marathon before race day."</li><li class="textList"><strong>Plan for success.</strong> "Failing to plan is planning to fail. You must plan your meals and workouts, and you must stick with your plans as closely as possible. If I'd allowed every lunch meeting or office party to get in the way, I'd never have reached my goals."</li><li class="textList"><strong>Start every day fresh.</strong> "We're all human and we're all going to have slipups, and that's okay. Instead of dwelling on them, move on and embrace the opportunity that exists with each new workout and meal."</li><li class="textList"><strong>Don't stress over the scale. </strong>"There are bigger indicators of success than a number on a scale. I didn't lose a pound my first month of eating better, but I felt happier and more energetic. And though I didn't drop 31 pounds by my 31st birthday, I was training to run 10 miles, which was huge!"</li><li class="textList"><strong>Live in yourself.</strong> "I'm living proof: With faith and discipline, you can accomplish whatever you put your mind to."</li></ul><div id=""><strong>Don't Let Fear Hold You Back</strong></div><div id=""><br />Two years ago, Magda had barely run a mile, ridden a bike, or gone swimming underwater. Today, she's a marathoner and triathlete. You can make big changes too, says John Spencer Ellis, CEO of the Spencer Institute for Life Coaching. Here's his advice on how to venture outside your comfort zone:</div><ul><li class="textList"><strong>Take baby steps.</strong> Don't try to run five miles your first time out. Over-doing it will only make you want to quit.</li><li class="textList"><strong>Find a teacher.</strong> Tackling a new challenge alone makes it more frustrating. Turn to an instructor or an experienced friend to give you feedback and support.</li><li class="textList"><strong>Laugh at yourself.</strong> Being able to shrug off mistakes puts failure into perspective. (Really, what's the worst that can happen?)</li><li class="textList"><strong>Envision success.</strong> Think of something you do well—even if it's your keen ability to get the kids out of the house on time—and recall how you worked up to where you are now. Then apply those same steps to your new goal.</li></ul><div class="partnerlogotxt"><p>Reprinted with permission of Hearst Communications, Inc. </p></div>Blogmasterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17553161974648892337noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7662955214111307385.post-43892600316480341412009-06-13T04:53:00.000-07:002009-06-13T05:05:23.371-07:00Turn Your Walk Into a Run ...<div class="textStoryTag"><h2>... and drop a size in 4 weeks with <i>Prevention</i>!</h2></div><div class="textMedBlackBold">By Marianne McGinnis, Prevention</div><table class="ImgBull" width="120" align="left" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr><td style="padding-bottom: 10px;" valign="top"><img src="http://blstb.msn.com/i/C7/122E4AA04062F6B878EBC297F5791.jpg" style="border: 0px solid rgb(0, 0, 0);" vspace="0" width="120" align="left" border="0" height="120" hspace="0" /></td></tr><tr><td valign="top"><div class="relatedLinks"><h5>Find more:</h5><span cm="moretopics"><div class="Plogo"><a href="http://www.prevention.com/cda/article/turn-your-walk-into-a-run-and-drop-a-size-in-4-weeks/1b52700d2a381210VgnVCM10000013281eac____/news.voices/in.the.magazine/july.2009.issue"><img src="http://blstb.msn.com/i/8D/8DFBAEBBA863F8DAE225E44AC29C9.gif" /></a></div><ul><li><a href="http://www.prevention.com/goguide/2wta.html?cm_mmc=MSN-_-Turn%20Your%20Walk%20Into%20A%20Run-_-Article-_-Slim%20Down%20in%2010%20Minutes%20RL" id="gted" ce="1">Slim Down in 10 Minutes! </a></li><li><a href="http://www.prevention.com/cda/article/walk-off-5-times-more-belly-fat/959b0d169e3af110VgnVCM10000013281eac____/fitness?cm_mmc=MSN-_-Turn%20Your%20Walk%20Into%20A%20Run-_-Article-_-Walk%20Off%205%20Times%20More%20Belly%20Fat%20RL" id="gted" ce="2">Walk Off 5 Times More Belly Fat </a></li><li><a href="http://www.prevention.com/6workoutmistakes/?cm_mmc=MSN-_-Turn%20Your%20Walk%20Into%20A%20Run-_-Article-_-6%20Workout%20Mistakes%20RL" id="gted" ce="3">6 Workout Mistakes that Slow Results</a></li></ul></span></div></td></tr></tbody></table><p>We know you love walking—and we do too! It's one of the best ways to stay healthy and keep your waistline in check. But when you're short on time (and who isn't?) or stuck on a plateau, running is another do-anywhere, no-equipment-required alternative that ramps up weight loss. Adding even a few minutes into your walks can build stronger bones and cut your exercise time nearly in half: Minute for minute, running burns about twice as many calories as walking.</p><p>But if you think you're too old or too out of shape or that running will damage your knees (research shows it won't), don't take it from us. Take it from the 46-to 67-year-old women who tested our walk-to-run program: They saw pounds disappear as soon as the first week, and by 8 weeks, they had shaved up to 20 inches off their butts, thighs, waistlines, hips, and arms and dropped nearly three sizes—all without dieting! In fact, even those who didn't lose much weight erased as many as 5 inches of belly fat.</p><p>Our eight-week plan is specifically designed to be safe for would-be runners over 40. You'll gradually increase your running time, allowing your body to adjust without aches or strain, and perform targeted toning exercises and stretches to protect against injuries. And don't be surprised if you become a convert—adults in one study who tried jogging reported enjoying their workouts 30 percent more than when they walked, possibly because running stimulates more good-mood hormones in the brain, say researchers.</p><p>The experts: Danny Dreyer, the author of Chi Running who specializes in teaching beginners how to run pain free, created the walk/run plan. Vonda Wright, M.D., an orthopedic surgeon and author of <em>Fitness After 40</em>, designed the strength/stretching workout.</p><p><strong>Workout at a glance:</strong></p><ul><li class="textList">What you need: Running shoes. While it's fine to walk in running shoes, it's not safe to run in walking ones since they're designed to absorb less impact.</li><li class="textList">Three days a week: Do run/walk intervals and Run Strong stretches (B moves only)</li><li class="textList">Three alternate days: Do 30 to 60 minutes of any low-impact cardio (such as walking, biking, or swimming), plus the Run Strong toning moves and stretches (A and B moves).</li><li class="textList">Customize your workout: Don't want to run full-time? Stop at whatever week feels good to you. To step it up after week eight, add five minutes a week until you reach 60 minutes.</li><li class="textList">Injury-proof your run: Good form and technique reduce strain and help your body absorb shock for a pain-free workout. Focus on one tip below each time you run.</li></ul><p><strong>Protect your posture: </strong>Keep shoulders back and down, chest lifted, abs tight. Lean entire body slightly forward from ankles (don't bend at the waist), allowing gravity to gently pull you forward.</p><p><strong>Keep eyes on the horizon:</strong> Look out ahead, rather than at the ground. Keeping your gaze up makes walking and running easier.</p><p><strong>Relax your hands: </strong>Clenching your fists can send tension up your wrists and arms; loosen up by pretending to cup something fragile, like a potato chip or butterfly.</p><p><strong>Make smooth transitions:</strong> In the final seconds of each walking interval, pick up your pace so when you switch to running, it feels easier than if you tried to walk any faster.</p><p><strong>Land mid-foot:</strong> Unlike walking, striking the ground with your heel when you run puts on the brakes. Aim to come down with the middle of your foot landing under you, then roll through smoothly.</p><p><strong>Shorten your stride:</strong> Protect knees and absorb shock better by maintaining a short stride and keeping a slight bend in your knee as you land.</p><p><strong>Pick your feet up:</strong> Instead of pushing into the ground, which can fatigue muscles, focus on keeping legs relaxed and lifting feet up.</p><p><strong>Run Strong and Slim Down Faster</strong></p><p>Strengthening and stretching your hips, butt, and abs can help you speed up, burn more fat, and stave off injuries. Do two sets of 10 to 15 reps of each toning move (A) per side, three times a week. Hold stretches (B) for 30 seconds per side.

But at the gym I own, the Institute of Human Performance in Boca Raton, Fla., we do the opposite of what you learned. We use no weights, no spotters, and no bench—which means you can do our entire program at home.</p><p>I'm talking about pushups. You'll shred fat, boost strength, stimulate new growth, and carve eye-grabbing pecs by blasting through 60-rep pushup sets.</p><p>The bench press is popular. But after this routine, you'll wonder why you ever tried anything different.</p><p><strong>Push Your Growth</strong></p><p>Follow these three steps to add layers of new muscle in just eight weeks. The first step builds your endurance, the second increases strength, and the final step adds explosiveness and speed so you can pack on more size. Before starting the program, you should be able to do 20 consecutive pushups. If you can't, then build your strength with this three-week prep: Three days a week, do three sets of pushups, resting three minutes between sets. (A set is as many pushups as you can complete.) The entire workout uses variations of the standard pushup. For each movement, assume a pushup position (with your body in a straight line from ankles to shoulders) and then lower your chest to the floor. Press your body back to the starting position by straightening your arms. To add difficulty, perform the exercise with your hands on a medicine ball.</p><p><strong>1: Weeks 1 and 2</strong></p><p>Perform these exercises two or three days a week in the order shown, with at least 1 day of rest between workouts. Complete three sets of each pushup type, resting one to two minutes between sets. Aim for sets of 10 to 15 reps; if you can't reach that goal, do as many reps as you can.</p><p><strong>A. Wide Pushup</strong></p><p>Do a standard pushup, but with your hands wider than shoulder-width apart.</p><p><strong>B. Alternating Shuffle Pushup</strong></p><p>Start in pushup position. Move your right hand to the left until your two hands are next to each other. Now slide your left hand farther left until your hands are shoulder-width apart again. Do a pushup and repeat the process, this time moving to the right and doing another pushup. That's one rep.</p><table class="tableStyles" cellpadding="5"><tbody><tr><td class="textBodyBlack" colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="top"><img src="http://blstb.msn.com/j/2B/2B95BE8CCD54F8EBC179E76D6AA1EC0.standard.jpg" style="border: 0px solid rgb(0, 0, 0);" vspace="0" border="0" hspace="0" /></td><td class="textBodyBlack" colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="top"><img src="http://blstb.msn.com/j/07/0722663E9BBB2977E8C4EEB39B6A0CA.standard.jpg" style="border: 0px solid rgb(0, 0, 0);" vspace="0" border="0" hspace="0" /></td><td class="textBodyBlack" colspan="1" rowspan="1" valign="top"><img src="http://blstb.msn.com/j/22/2225811C1D4A776397BA85F6CDD158A.standard.jpg" style="border: 0px solid rgb(0, 0, 0);" vspace="0" border="0" hspace="0" /></td></tr></tbody></table><p><strong>C.

But nowadays the situation has been evolving. You can easily see girls and guys go to gym and build their muscles. They maybe don't enjoy the process but they want to look better, especially obese people.<img src="file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/ycn38/LOCALS%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>Due to this reason, many so-called expert trainers created new concepts of weightlifting trainings. They created new methods like 6-pack abs and ab machines. You probably get bored with all these "ab" things because basically they are no different with the traditional weightlifting methods.</p> <p>Sadly these expensive packs are not including any explanations. Each of us is different.

Why? Because their body are different OR they ate the wrong foods. Just like diet pills, not everyone could achieve the same result by taking one diet product. Yep, weight loss, fat loss, and weightlifting training are very complicated. When you follow someone else�s path, it doesn't guarantee you anything.</p> <p>This is why these so-called experts do not want to include any diet explanation into their abs training packages because they want you to spend more to buy other diet books or programs. Well, to be honest, there's nothing you can do if you want to lose weight or get better physical appearance through these "modern" methods or programs.

Give your Eyes a RestMost jobs in today's society require the use of a computer. If you sit in front of a computer all day or work any job or hobby that requires your eyes to work hard, be sure to take breaks throughout your day. For soothing relief, you can use eye drops, close your eyes for a few minutes to allow them to rest, and look away to something other than what you are working on. Also, ensure that you are working with appropriate lighting, which is an oversight many people make. These are ways in which to give your eyes a much-needed break. Eyestrain can cause eye problems as well as headaches.Blogmasterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17553161974648892337noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7662955214111307385.post-11674676540804207442009-06-01T05:26:00.002-07:002009-06-01T05:27:28.898-07:00FlaxseedA great way to maintain a healthy cardiovascular system is by adding flaxseed to your daily diet.

Water helps flush out toxins and other unwanted things lingering in the body. Water also replenishes fluids that help lubricate the internal body, keeps you hydrated, reduces hunger, which helps with weight loss, and helps to make skin look smooth and young.
