Thanks for listening! This will be my last post because I am moving to another station and time. Go to www.xgym.com for details on my new show on Sunday nights at 5pm. Thanks KKOL listeners! I hope to hear from you tomorrow and every other Sunday on my new show!

Here is some of the new stuff covered today:

Depriving yourself of sleep makes you gain fat.

U r  tired in the day and serotonin levels dip. You crave high glycemic foods and calories dense foods to bring your energy and serotonin levels up. You eat more all day to keep you going.

Reverse diet is proof that the calorie in-calorie out theory is false

NWCR.ws is a great/free resource for those who want to lose fat and keep it off

 80% of persons in the National Weight Control Registry are women and 20% are men.

• The "average" woman is 45 years of age and currently weights 145 lbs, while the "average" man is 49 years of age and currently weights 190 lbs.

• Registry members have lost an average of 66 lbs and kept it off for an average of 5.5 years.

• Weight losses have ranged from 30 to 300 lbs.
• Duration of successful weight loss has ranged from 1 year to 66 years!
• Some have lost the weight rapidly, while others have lost weight very slowly--over as many as 14 years.
• 45% of registry participants lost the weight on their own and the other 55% lost weight with the help of some type of program.

7 habits of highly thin people in theNational Weight Control Registry:

• 98% of Registry participants report that they modified their food intake in some way to lose weight.

• 94% increased their physical activity, with the most frequently reported form of activity being walking.

• There is variety in how NWCR members keep the weight off. Most report continuing to maintain a low calorie, low fat diet and doing high levels of activity. 

• 78% eat breakfast every day.
• 75% weigh them self at least once a week.
• 62% watch less than 10 hours of TV per week.
• 90% exercise, on average, about 1 hour per day.

The French students showed a low frequency of snacking and a high regularity in having breakfast, especially respondents with lower BMI. Very few were overweight (8%) and less than 1% were obese.

 

Your brain makes you lose fat. Dave Scott 6 time ironman world champion rinsed his cottage cheese because he felt that a low fat/ hi carb diet would give him the edge. This didn’t help, but psychologically it was valuable to him because he believed it to work and it was one more thing he was doing to cement his commitment to his cause.

This is how diet pills work. It’s the physical act of the pill to the mouth that reminds you of your commitment to lose weight. A simple belief in the product can be enough to change habits unconsciously and change metabolism mentally by belief.
