The Fat Loss Factor
Being fat is not genetic. True, your entire family may be overweight but it doesn't mean that you have to be. There are success stories all the time of people overcoming their "genetics" and possibly increasing your chances of rapid fat loss. Just watch the TV show "The Biggest Loser" (google it if you've never seen it) It is full of people who have overcome their "genetics".
Want to know a sort of secret? Your genes do not control your weight... your lifestyle does. Your genes are like a light switch, you can turn them on and off depending what you do with your life. Don't be a victim of yourself and everything that you hear!
This is a very common problem facing our society and there is a simple solution. Manage your stress. We dedicate a giant section of the book to this problem alone.
One easy way to lose weight quickly without actually doing ANYTHING physical or to your diet, decrease your stress levels.
When your stress levels are high, your stress hormones sky rocket which make you hungry. For many, it can be harder to control your portions, to stop emotional eating, and stop binge eating...
Guess what types of foods we all crave? Sugary, fatty foods. This is because that is what your stress hormones are made of and your body needs more fat and sugar to make more stress hormones. This is a vicious cycle that is hard to break.
If you want to lose 10 pounds or even lose 20 pounds, diets like these WILL work for ashort amount of time. Over 80% of dieters will gain back that weight plus more in 5 years. What's even worse is that you will lose muscle so when the weight comes back, it comes back as FAT. Think about this for one second. These are by far the most popular diets forrapid weight loss BUT our society gets more overweight as each year passes.
The truth is, fast weight loss comes from a diet that works and is easy to follow. We will teach you a very simple method that will get you losing fat pounds and not muscle or... water weight. You will be able to repeat this program again and again for the rest of your life!
I can't promise you that this program will take no time. That's a lie. The fact is, you will have to spend some time on yourself. (You owe it to yourself, your friends and your family to be the best you possible) Believe it or not, the energy that you will get from working out and eating healthy save you time!
Workouts wouldn't take more than 30-35 minutes 3 days a week.
A lot of our quick weight loss meals take less than 5 minutes to prepare and eat.
If you are smart and pre-plan, It will take less than 1 minute.
Want to know how to lose belly fat? Not the old- fashioned way or with those junky, gimmicky ab machines we've all seen on late night tv. Crunches will never burn fat, just build the muscle underneath it, pushing it out further.
The truth is, we believe you can actually lose belly fat MANY times faster by utilizing these whole body exercises instead of targeting your abs...
That's what we've all been trained to think... but some so-called "junk" food can actually give your metabolism a BOOST. What that means to you is that you can actually lose weight fast by eating foods that you may think are junk! Now, the trick is to know when to take advantage of it, which we I'll show you.
Thyroid problems are not uncommon, especially among women. Your thyroid is the primary control center for your metabolism. It releases hormones that control your metabolism. If it goes haywire, your metabolism slows to a halt and you can kiss rapid fat loss goodbye.
So how do you lose weight with hypothyroidism? The key lies in eating the right type of foods for your thyroid and purging toxins out of your system.
Some food additives are man-made, synthetic chemicals used to preserve foods, make them taste better, add supposed nutritional value and get this... THEY BYPASS YOUR HUNGER MECHANISM MAKING YOU CRAVE MORE AND EAT MORE FOOD!
High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS): This is a man made sweetener that is cheaper to produce and to some, can be sweeter than sugar.
When HFCS is ingested, it travels straight to the liver which turns the tasty, sugary liquid into FAT. The "strange" thing is HFCS does not cause the pancreas to produce insulin (acts as a hunger quenching signal to the brain) So our bodies are "tricked" into a vicious cycle, eating food that gets immediately stored as fat and never feeling full.
It is associated with blood sugar problems, ADD/ADHD, depression, fatigue, B vitamin deficiency, indigestion, tooth decay, and most importantly... WEIGHT GAIN
HFCS is found in Yoplait™ yogurt (and any other flavored yogurt for that matter), salad dressings (especially the lite and low calorie versions), Special K™ cerial (which is supposed to be a healthy cerial), Nutra Grain bars, and even whole grain "healthy" breads!
Be sure that you always READ YOUR LABELS because, as you can see, the so-called "healthy foods" may be labeled as healthy because it puts more money into the mega rich corporation's pockets.

The Green Clean Book
Green is the predominant color in nature, and today it's often associated with environmentally friendly choices and lifestyles.
So today we're taking a look at "The Green Clean Book"
This is a no brainer for anyone that wants more information on being greener. This eBook comes with 6 bonus books and an unadvertised book as well for a total of 8 eBooks. A total of 295 pages for $9.97. That's less than $0.04 a page. Information doesn't get much cheaper than that.
I'm sure if you spent enough time you could do your own research and find this info for free but with the price being under $10.00 I think "The Green Clean Book" with it's bonuses is well worth the money.
Another thing I liked is the fact that all the books are short and an easy read. The average book is under 40 pages.
I hope this quick review helps and i hope you pickup your copy of "The Green Clean Book" today.
Here are some great ideas you can get started with for free in the meantime
- Visit Your State's Environmental Website - Sites such as environmentminnesota.org or texasenvironment.org (each state has a website) have a "Take Action" header, which gives tips on helping your local environment and even petitions to sign.
- Make your next event a green one. Just because you want to go green doesn't mean you need to cut back on the good times. Green events still enable you to celebrate and be healthy and environmentally friendly at the same time. You can even Have a Green Wedding!
- Take action to reduce global warming. There are many, many things you can do to minimize the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Basically, the less we depend on fossil fuels, the better!
- Grow your own food. If you have access to some land, maybe you can Practice Sustainable Agriculture. If all you have is a balcony, you can still grow things like beans and peas, tomatoes, and herbs in pots. And if all you have is a window, become a guerilla gardener: find a patch of dirt anywhere in your neighborhood and plant stuff there. Whatever you can't grow, support your local farmers and buy it at a farmers' market.
- Get around green. Consider whether you can Live Without a Car. At first, you might think it's impossible, but there are so many other ways to get around these days. If you can't part with your car, consider buying a hybrid, using biodiesel, and hypermiling. Replace as much of your car use as possible with the following:
- a bicycle
- public transportation
- good old walking
- carpooling
- Watch your water. Look for ways to Save Water around the house, and encourage others to do the same. You can also save water outside the house with a sleeping lawn or by xeriscaping. In addition to using less water, take steps towards keeping the water we already have nice and clean: How to Reduce Water Pollution. If there are any leaks in the faucet, fix them immediately.
- ]]Reduce, reuse, and recycle! In a consumerist society, it can be difficult go for even a day without buying anything. When you do buy stuff, try to make sure it's stuff that will last a long time and can serve multiple purposes; avoid buying disposable items when possible. Also, consider the "greenness" of the company that made it! Before throwing anything away, try to find creative ways to reuse it. You'd be surprised what you can do with old Altoids tins, socks, plastic bags, plastic bottles, and, well, everything.
- Green your closet. You can certainly be green without wearing green. The first rule is to never throw clothing away; always donate it to a charitable organization so it can be reused by someone else. But before you even part with a garment, try to think of ways you can revamp it and give it a little extra mileage. There are more than 20 ways you can give a t-shirt a makeover. A pair of pants can easily become a purse. So can a bra, for that matter. Even a trip to the tailor can turn a poorly fitted garment into a flattering outfit. When you do go shopping, favor thrift stores.
- Enjoy the outdoors. Communing with nature is more resource-friendly than going to the movies or restaurant or mall. Instead of traveling with an RV, why don't you Go Canoe Camping? Instead of getting McDonald's or Wendy's, why don't you find nature's munchies? Instead of staying at a hotel, why don't you pitch a tent or a hammock?
- Green your home. Consider downsizing your home so you have less space to heat or cool and less room to fill up with stuff you really don't need. If you want to be extra green, Start Living in a Tiny House, Camp As a Lifestyle, or Live in Your Car!
- Try worm farming to reduce household scraps. Vermicomposting, or worm composting, allows you to compost your food waste rapidly, while producing high quality compost soil and fertilizing liquid. Best of all, it's self-contained and nearly odorless.
