			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;" align="center"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;"></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">If you decide to go on a diet, this article is crucial to your success. Saying the word “Diet” can lead to hysteria in many. You may want to lose weight, but may not want to take the necessary steps to making your ideal weight a reality. Most people stick to a diet for a short time, thinking it will work miracles on their figure only to be let down by another diet plan. But, in reality, it was them that “fell off the bandwagon” that lead to their unsuccessful results.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">In order for a diet to be effective, you must understand your main cause that you are going on the diet in the first place. However, if you find that the cause is not strong enough, then most likely you will not succeed and may easily stray off the dieting path believing that yet another diet does not work, when it could just be your lack of well-power.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">After you’ve established the reason why you are on a diet plan to begin with, and have built a strong foundation to support your new endeavor, you’ll want to choose a diet that has a “normal maintenance” plan to follow after the diet is complete. A “normal maintenance” plan will help you to maintain your weight loss goals. Make note that the maintenance plan should be very similar to the way you ate before going on the diet by replacing previous unhealthy choices with healthy alternatives, of course. Being on restricted diets for too long will cause you to FAIL; miserably. That’s why it’s important to revert back to a similar yet healthier eating practices that you are accustom to. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">When transforming from your diet to a livable, normal maintenance plan (after you’ve reached your desired weight) consider the following to make sure that you don’t gain all the weight back again.</span></p>
<p style="margin-left:42pt;text-indent:-0.25in;"><span style="font-family:Symbol;"><span><span style="font-size:small;">·</span><span style="font:7pt &quot;">         </span></span></span><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Don’t restrict your calories less than 1000 calories per day. This can cause your body to go into starvation mode and slow down your metabolism considerably. When you return to eating normal, your body will store it all as fat; causing your weight to skyrocket. </span></p>
<p style="margin-left:42pt;text-indent:-0.25in;"><span style="font-family:Symbol;"><span><span style="font-size:small;">·</span><span style="font:7pt &quot;">         </span></span></span><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Don’t eliminate one or more entire food groups for long periods of time. Cutting out an entire food group deprives your body of its natural ingredients. However, there are times when you want to jump start your metabolism and cutting down or cutting out a particular food group but only for a day or so. Eliminating vital nutrients may not cause major problems in short spurts, but doing this too long can pose a hindrance on your health. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"><strong>Author’s Note:</strong> If you are looking for a highly reputably diet plan, then perhaps you may want to try the South Beach Diet. Give it a try. Thousands have had extraordinary results in their weight loss by using this diet plan.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">You have probably heard a lot of hype about HGH (Human Growth Hormone) such as: you will become Super Human, watch your muscles grow overnight, or HGH therapy is the “fountain of youth”, or HGH is the anti-aging solution that will make an 80 year old man or woman feel like they’re 18 again!</span></p>
<h2 style="margin:0;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Let me break it down a bit for you. Hormones help to stimulate certain activities in that certain hormones such as insulin, which help your body digest food while others induce growth, reproduction, and sexual functions. </span></h2>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Specifically, </span><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#333333;font-family:Arial;">HGH is the most abundant hormone produced by the pituitary gland (pituitary is one of the endocrine glands, located in the center of the brain). HGH is made up of 191 amino acids and peaks in the body during adolescence: helping to stimulate your body to grow. But, HGH secretion does not stop after adolescence. Your body continues to produce HGH usually in short bursts during deep sleep and is responsible for tissue repair, muscle growth, healing, brain function, physical and mental health, bone strength, energy and metabolism. In short, it is very important to just about every aspect of your physical life!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#333333;font-family:Arial;">HGH Supplementation benefits are:</span></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">8.8% increase in muscle mass on average after six months. without exercise</span></li>

<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Stronger bones </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Faster wound healing </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Younger, tighter, thicker skin </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Hair re-growth </span></li>

<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Elimination of cellulite </span></li>

<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Improved sleep </span></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0 0 0 0.25in;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#333333;font-family:Arial;">Other roles of HGH are: </span></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Conversion of body fat to muscle mass </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Growth of all tissues </span></li>

<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Organ health and integrity </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Enzyme production </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Integrity of hair, nails, skin and vital organs </span></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0 0 0 0.25in;"><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#333333;font-family:Arial;">Reading all the benefits of HGH does sound like it will make you feel like a “Super Human.” Inevitably, your body already produces a certain amount of HGH to function properly, yet after age of 20 years old, your body’s HGH levels decrease significantly each year and by age 60, you will have lost approximately 75% of the HGH your body initially produced.<span>  </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0 0 0 0.25in;"><strong><span style="font-size:11pt;color:#333333;font-family:Arial;">On the contrary, there are a few negative effects of HGH, which are slim in comparison to the many benefits, which are:</span></strong></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Extremely Expensive, providing that you take HGH injections. $20,000. </span><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><br />
<span><span> </span></span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Possible Negative Side Effects Include carpel tunnel syndrome and gynecomastia (enlarged breasts).
<p></span></li>
</ul>
<h2 style="margin:0;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:#333333;font-family:Arial;">There has been numerous studies done by Dr. Rudman and published in the New England Journal of Medicine that reported that men who took HGH had shown a 8.8 percent gain in lean body mass with a 14 percent loss in body fat, without diet or exercise. </span></h2>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0 0 12pt;"><span style="color:black;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:small;"> </span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0 0 12pt;"><span style="color:black;font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:small;">Research states that Arginine / Ornithine play a role in the body&#8217;s immune response and wound healing abilities and growth.</p>
<p>My advice is seek out a supplement that provides the most results and doesn’t cost $20,000 per year as injections do. Look for an HGH supplement that combines arginine with other isolated amino acids known to act synergistically and take it on an empty stomach. . </span></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Listen, Weight Watchers. Losing weight is simple. It really is. I don’t know why some people make losing weight so difficult. Let me explain…</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">One pound of fat yields 3500 calories. Therefore, if you want to lose 1-2 pounds a week, consume 3500 calories or less plus include a daily exercise program. By cutting out 500 calories from your daily diet, you can achieve this goal easily. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Although 1-2 pounds a week doesn’t sound like a whole lot right now, just think that in a few months, you will be noticeably trim. I know that a lot of people want to lose weight quickly. While fad diets may allow you to lose weight fast, the majority of the time, you gain the weight back even faster. If you want to achieve lasting and healthy results that can not be obtained from the latest list of top 10 fad diets, then it’s best to take my advice and lose weight gradually. You’ll be more prone to maintaining it and keeping it off forever.<span>   </span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Cutting out 500 calories is so easy to do that it’s highly probable that you won’t even feel like you’ve reduced your intake by an amount that’s going to gain significant results on your waistline. Here are my simple suggestions to remove 500 calories from your daily diet:</span></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Choose jelly instead of butter</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Purchase a small meal instead of a Biggie sized/combo meal at the fast food restaurant</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Drink water instead of soda</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Snack on veggies instead of cheese</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Eat an English muffin for breakfast instead of a donut</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Eat 2 egg whites instead of 1 whole egg</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Eat extra lean cut meats instead of normal cuts</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Choose non-fat milk or low-fat milk instead of whole milk</span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">On the contrary, you can also choose to eliminate 500 calories a day by burning it off through exercise. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Here are a few exercise ideas to refer to when working toward reaching your ideal weight. Perform each exercise to the point of exertion for the duration of one hour. </span></p>
<ul type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Take a Walk</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Ride your Bike</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Go Dancing </span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Go Swimming</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Play Volleyball on the Beach</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Play Tennis</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:small;font-family:Times New Roman;">Go Hiking </span></li>
</ul>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Remember that when you incorporate exercise into your daily routine, you will burn more fat than dieting alone while you gain lean muscle. During this time, the scale may increase a bit, but you will see amazing results in the tone of your body and in the inches you’ve lost, be sure to measure your success. </span></p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;">Author’s Note:</span></strong><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;"> If you want to go on a weight loss program with an exceptional reputation for helping people achieve huge results, check out Weight Watchers.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="header" style="text-align:left;margin:auto 0;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Many people go through life chasing after one weight loss program to another only to put the weight right back on again and sometimes even more. We’ve all heard (or experienced) this, haven’t we? There was the Atkins Diet then the Southbeach Diet, and now the Fat Smash Diet. There are many causes to this constant yo-you dieting syndrome that I’m going to share with you in this article. </span></p>
<p class="header" style="text-align:left;margin:auto 0;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Many causes of yo- yo dieting is due to the following:</span></p>
<p class="header" style="text-indent:-0.25in;margin:auto 0 auto 0.5in;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;"><span>1.<span style="font:7pt &quot;">      </span></span></span><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Your Busy Lifestyle. With the demanding schedule of today’s society, people have become master multi-taskers. With your schedule, who has time to measure food, take extensive exercise classes every day, or research diets hours on end?</span></p>
<p class="header" style="text-indent:-0.25in;margin:auto 0 auto 0.5in;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;"><span>2.<span style="font:7pt &quot;">      </span></span></span><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Hormonal Imbalances – Many diets do not properly evaluate a person’s individual body chemistry. The wrong hormones could be affected by the diet itself; causing you to gain weight! Yikes! </span></p>
<p class="header" style="text-indent:-0.25in;margin:auto 0 auto 0.5in;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;"><span>3.<span style="font:7pt &quot;">      </span></span></span><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Non-Personalized Diets – Some diets do not take into consideration your individual body type and make-up. Therefore, while a diet plan may cause one person to lose weight, the same diet plan may cause another person to gain weight. <span> </span></span></p>
<p class="header" style="text-indent:-0.25in;margin:auto 0 auto 0.5in;"><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;"><span>4.<span style="font:7pt &quot;">      </span></span></span><span style="font-weight:normal;font-size:11pt;color:black;font-family:Arial;">Too Strict – Some diets are so drastic that they leave you feeling deprived and even hungrier than when you began the diet, leading to fast “Self Sabattoge” by overeating! </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Other harmful affects can be caused by using diets that don’t consider health and can actually be harmful to your health. Some negative affects of some popular diet plans are: </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0;" type="disc">
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Ketosis, which causes lean muscle loss, which slows down your metabolism.</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Headaches, dizziness, fatigue, low blood sugar, muscle wasting, nausea, body odor, and bad breath.</span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span class="copy1"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Restricts eating adequate amounts of healthy protein &amp; fat leads to muscle mass loss, which in turn slows down your metabolism resulting in fewer calories and fat being burnt.</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span class="copy1"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Far too high in carbohydrates, which spikes blood sugar levels and elevates the fat storing hormone insulin, which prevents you from burning fat efficiently.</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span class="copy1"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Low in essential fats, which help you stay healthy and help with the fat burning process.</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal"><span class="copy1"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Far too low in quality protein, causing muscle breakdown, amino acid deficiencies, and slower metabolism (body burns less fat). </span></span><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"></span></li>
</ul>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"><br />
I hope the information above will encourage you to keep clear of diets and false beliefs of “Magic Weight Loss in One Little Pill” gimmicks. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">If you really want to achieve lasting weight loss results that will keep you on track with your ideal goals, hire a coach. A coach will help you devise a personalized plan tailored specifically to fit your needs as well as help you to stay motivated in achieving your goals. When choosing a coach, you should be sure that the nutritional program you are on is one that is balanced and doesn’t deprive you of nutrient based, quality foods. Of course you’ll also want to make sure that the program is easy to follow and fits your busy lifestyle. </span></p>
<p class="copy" style="margin:auto 0 12pt;"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial;">Diets don’t work, but there are solutions to getting the help you need to lose weight the healthy way. Hire a health and fitness coach. </span></p>
