Do you know anybody who does not wish to get rid of the fat on one particular area of their body? I have not met anybody like that!
"If I could only get rid of my big belly"! "Oh, I wish my thighs were slimmer"! Does it sound familiar?
Even skinny people are often unhappy with the excess fat in some areas of their body. We've all seen those skinny men with huge bellies!
This common problem is accompanied by a widespread belief that you can lose the fat on a "problem area" by exercising that particular area. Some people do hundreds of crunches in attempts to flatten their stomachs, others buy the "miracle" ab gadgets and bulky "hip slimming" machines from TV.
Were you about to call the 800 number to buy the "latest and greatest" ab roller? Hold on to your hard-earned money!
The belief that you can lose fat on a specific part of your body by exercising that area is a myth! Targeting the "spots" of your body for fat loss is called "spot reducing", and it simply does not work.
Exercising certain areas of your body will strengthen the muscles there, but it will not remove the fat from them. Your newly developed muscles will be hidden under the layer of fat.
What about those heavily pitched creams, wraps and rubber belts that supposedly "melt the fat away"? Those are just plainly scams.
The creams and body wraps can temporarily give your skin smoother appearance, but they will do absolutely nothing for fat loss. All kinds of weight loss belts, pants and other clothing will make you sweat, thereby causing some loss of water weight which is mistaken by most people for fat loss. But they will not help you lose even one gram of the actual fat!1
There is no way to tell your body where exactly it should lose its fat.
Each person's body has its own unique shape and fat distribution pattern. The places where the fat goes first are, unfortunately, where it comes off last. So the only way to lose that fat is by losing weight in general.
The only healthy permanent way to lose weight is by making lifestyle changes to incorporate healthy eating and increased activity. When you do that, the fat will come off everywhere on your body, including those "trouble spots". And yes, you will then have that body that you always dreamed of! Melanie Mendelson

Good Reasons For Losing Weight
Author: Terry Sandhu
Everyone knows that being overweight is not a healthy place to be at, and you don't have to be agenius to be aware of that. However just knowing this is not a strong enough reason for most people to make a firm commitment to lose weight.
Just by saying that you should lose weight because you are overweight is not a good reason for losing weight. If it was, less people would fail in their attempts.
Weight loss requires motivation and you will get that motivation from your reasons to lose weight. Your focus should not be on how difficult it will be but what the future will hold for you if you don't. Do not just spend a few minutes thinking about it.
Write everything down and read it again and again. Also write down all the benefits that you will get by losing weight. Compare your two lists regularly and it won't be difficult to see which will be the better option.
Your reasons to lose weight should be your own, reasons that are personal to you and not anybody else. Write down all the benefits you can think of regardless how small.
The more reasons you have the more you will be motivated. Here are some good reasons, you can use these and add anymore you can think of. Make copies of your list and pin them up in different rooms in your house.
The major reason for losing weight is your health. However don't just think that you want to be healthier. You need to be specific. When you lose weight you significantly reduce the risk of variousdiseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, bone disorders, joint problems, strokes, heart attacks, and various cancers. Your chances of living longer are significantly increased.
Try to think what your life would be like if one or more of those diseases entered your life. Dosomething about it now before it is too late because it is only a question of when something happens, if you don't.
The next reason for losing weight is how it will affect your life on a daily basis. You will start to have more energy. Carrying excessive weight is a drain on you and your body. It makes you tired more quickly leaving you feeling lethargic and making it difficult to do everyday tasks.
On top of this you will feel better about yourself. When you don't feel rundown and tired you feelhappier. This is good not only for you but for people around you. Nobody wants to be around someone who feels tired and grumpy all the time.
A further reason to lose weight is that it makes you look good. No matter what anyone says, everyone wants to look good and be noticed. When you are aware that people notice you in a positive way it raises your confidence and self esteem.
You feel so much better about yourself when you know you are healthy and fit and know that others are also seeing you in the same way. Unfortunately the opposite is also true. When you don't feel good about yourself your self confidence and self esteem can drop and make you feel even worse.
Once you have got your reasons for losing weight, make a plan. Decide what you are going to cut out of your diet and what you are going to add. Plan your exercise program by picking what exercises you are going to do, and when you are going to do them.
Finally the most important step, which is to commit yourself to follow your plan day after day, and week after week, and the results that you desire will come.

Intelligent Weight Loss is as Simple
Author: HSF Vitamins
"Forget the complex diets, weight loss is about intelligent and committed effort."
1. Focus your meals around lean sources of protein such as: white chicken and turkey meat, lean cuts of beef, egg whites, tuna and other fish, etc.
2. Don't be afraid of all fats. We've been brainwashed into thinking that all forms of fat in the diet are unhealthy and can lead to excess bodyfat. This simply isn't true. In fact, your body needs fat in order to burn fat, otherwise it will shift into preservation mode and attempt to maintain existing fat stores. It's true that you should watch your intake of saturated fat, but taking in so-called "good" fats (ie: those found in nuts, olive oil, flax seed, fish oils, etc.) can have a very positive effect on weightloss and overall health.
3. Move your carbohydrate intake away from foods that spike a high insulin response in the body to foods that offer more quality fuel for long-lasting energy. To simplify, try to limit your intake of processed carbs like breads, pastas, refined sugar products, etc.; instead, eat more unprocessed carbs like fruits and vegetables. If it comes in a box (crackers, cereal, pasta, cookies), forget it or at least only eat it in moderation. In fact, if there's one thing you can do that will have a significant, positive, and lasting effect on your health and bodyfat percentages, it's shifting your carbohydrate intake away from processed foods and towards natural fruits and vegetables.

Obesity in Morocco: Why So Many Girls Are Taking Medicines to Get Fat!
Marilyn Monroe - An ideal weight?
Today's post will deal with psychological and societal factors in Morocco where many people from the middle classes want to appear “rich and well-fed,” accelerating the trends.
My mom has an American friend who grew up in the sixties and early seventies (in Denver), who thinks her mother seemed to be obsessed with making her fat. She used to talk about it being nice to be "pleasingly plump." We are not sure where this idea came from. Even looking at the movie stars of American movie stars from past decades, my American friend says she thinks they look healthy (not anorexic), but definitely not overweight, either.
Cyd Charisse - An ideal weight?
A lot of Moroccan girls and women (mainly from the lower and middle classes) seem to be obsessed with the idea of gaining weight. They go the pharmacy and buy medicines (without a prescription, of course) that are designed for increasing the appetites of anorexic people. They take these medicines "to help themselves get a little fatter." The people doing this are NOT skin and bones; they are people who look of pretty normal weights (about like these pictures above). They feel like they will be more attractive.
My little sister IS thinner than normal. But according to our family's pediatrician, she is healthy, and of the same "sleight" build as her father. Well-meaning relatives, such as our grandmother, have bought this anorexic syrup medicine (without doctors advice) and were giving it to her without my parents' knowledge or consent when she stayed with them. Not only that, but they were giving her about four times the dosage stated on the bottle, which was making her really sleepy. They sent it home with her and told her she MUST keep taking it. Fortunately, our family has better sense, and forbid her to take it. So guess what happened--the remaining syrup was stolen by our maid (we found it in her purse). Apparently our maid wants to get fatter, too. (She's of normal weight.)
Some girls who take this syrup end up looking bloated and pasty. I think they look disgusting, but my little sister insists they look "much better!" These are mainly unmarried girls, so I think they feel it will help them "catch a husband" better., which is done mainly by appearances in Morocco.
My little sister THINKS she is too skinny (at least she's teased by the girls at school who say she is, but they are chubby, so it's probably jealousy). So she wears four pairs of pants under her jeans. I ask her why she is doing this, especially when it is over 100°F outside! She says it's so that the thigh area of the jeans will not look "loose," but filled out, and tight all around, like her friends look in their jeans. All I can say is that I remember being this age (fourteen) and how important it is at that age to dress like your friends.
So, the question is, WHY do girls want to look like this? I think it has to do with poor people wanting to look prosperous, and well-fed, as we still have a lot of skinny poor people in Morocco who hardly have enough to eat. I think being skinny is equated with being poor, and NO ONE wants to LOOK POOR. Many of the rich are quite overweight; whereas poor people in Morocco are NEVER overweight.
I've heard several times over many years that down in the Western Sahara Province of Morocco, women force-feed their daughters to get fat and even have them roll on the beach at midnight to get fat (probably some kind of a witchcraft method). I don't really know if it's true, but I did come across this very interesting article from the BBC on a similar thing happening in Mauretania, which is right next to that area:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3429903.stm
This article is about Mauretania's Wife-Fattening Farm, and interestingly, gives the same reasons as I've stated above--gaining weight because it's believed it will be easier to "catch a husband."
Fat Women in Mauretania, photo by Pascale Harter, BBC
In spite of all this, calling someone FAT in Morocco IS an insult. Kids in school call kids who are chubby FAT, and in most of Morocco, no one likes FAT women, although fat men seem to be tolerated. But no one wants to marry a fat man, either.

What If The Weight Loss Product You're Buying is Poison?
These days, obese people suffer less from obesity related problems and more from the side effects of weight loss products that they use. If you don't exercise caution when buying a weight loss product, it can be harmful for your health. Doing your due diligence and arming yourself with the correct knowledge is very much essential, especially when it comes to weight loss. Before buying any weight loss product, make sure that you have researched it thoroughly. During your search, you should try to get as much information as possible about the product, its good and bad effects, the ingredients that it is made up of, etc., as these things can seriously affect your health, either positively or negatively! In this article I will tell you how to know a good weight loss product from the bad ones.
To start with, you shouldn't accept everything at face value. The internet is littered with both good and bad information, and more often than not, the bad information overshadows the good one. There is a lot of misleading information regarding several weight loss products doing the rounds of the World Wide Web, and in case you don't know, the perpetrators of this misleading information are either the product manufacturers themselves or their partners who promote the products on their behalf. You may come across websites offering you what seems to be 'honest reviews' regarding your product, but is that really so? Most of these reviews are filled up with dishonest, misleading and fraudulent information, and if you rely on this information when purchasing a weight loss product, you are doomed!
I will give an example to clarify my point. You maybe aware of the fact that there are several websites out there claiming to offer natural weight loss products. Well, at one point of time, some experts of the Johns Hopkins University surveyed those sites in order to find out whether the outrageous claims made by these sites are true or not. Not surprisingly, many websites failed the test; some failed to give information regarding the correct dosage of the supplement, others failed to reveal about the harmful side effects of the products, and yet others failed to offer information regarding the ingredients of the products. Believe it or not, lack of such vital pieces of information can harm the consumer more than anyone else.
So, how to separate the wheat from the chaff? As a rule of thumb, you should avoid products whose claims seem to be outrageous or impossible. An old saying goes that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is! If you find a website that claims that their product can do miracles for you, chances are that reality is exactly the opposite - that is, it will harm your body in a 'miraculous' way.
Your best bet is to consult a doctor or a nutritionist before you even decide to buy any weight loss pill. Your doctor should be able to clarify what side effects the consumption of a particular medicine may have, and this piece of information alone will save you from a lot of troubles down the road!

Diet
Since school began, it's been busy and cannot do much for my hobbies lately. Only thing I have been able to continue is probably my diet. My diet has been showing progress little by little. I cheat my diet menu quite often, so I guess I have been losing my weight so slow. I need to fix this! A few days ago, we bought chips somehow when we went grocery shopping. I didn't notice A.A. grabbed chips until we got to a cashier. Well, eventually we bought them and we, especially I, have been snacking those. It's not good!!! I love Sun Chips, but I wish I didn't crave. Even those are baked chips, they have calories. I know I wouldn't eat any if we didn't have chips in my sight, so I don't want to buy them, but A.A. wants to snack.. pretty big problem..
I started eating asian salad, which helps my diet. It has lettuce, tomato, cucumber, sliced ham, and sometimes fried eggs. Originally it was "harusame salad." But, I have been eating without harusame since it's out (I tried chinese harusame, but I didn't like it). The dressing with this salad is made of 2 Tbl. soy sauce, 2 Tbl. rice vinegar, 1 Tbl. sesame oil, and 1 Tbl. sugar. And then I add mustard for finishing. When I think it's kind of heavy taste, I reduce the amount of soy sauce and sugar. I believe my skin, especially my face, feels and looks much better because of the rice vinegar.
I want to update my blog and take photos of Sophie and Misha more often. They have been doing great and I think Misha now weights around 90 lb. or more. She is thick and feels like heavier than Sophie.. She needs new collar, probably size 20''.

Are You Considering Fat Loss For Idiots to Lose Weight Fast?
By Joan Martin
Are you considering fat loss for idiots as a quick and easy way to lose weight? You are not alone. Millions of Americans will go on diets this year. And while some will succeed in taking the weight off, very few will manage to keep all of it off in the long run.
One reason for the low success rate is that many people look for quick and easy solutions to their weight problems. They find it hard to believe in this age of scientific innovations and medical miracles that an effortless weight-loss method does not exist.
So many succumb to quick fix claims like "Eat All You Want and Still Lose Weight!" or "Melt Fat Away While You Sleep!" And they invest their hopes (and their money) in all manner of pills, potions, gadgets, and programs that hold the promise of a slimmer, happier future. Fat loss for idiots diet plan has claims of their own and they back them up.
Fad diets rarely have any permanent effect. Radical changes in your eating patterns are difficult to sustain over time. To lose weight safely and keep it off requires long term changes in daily eating and exercise habits. Many experts recommend a goal of losing about a pound a week. An important way to lower your calorie intake is to learn and practice healthy eating habits.
The weight loss business is a booming industry and the fat loss for idiots plan is on the top of the list right now.
