Healthy weight loss
By Akanett Web Publishing

To achieve a healthy is not an impossibility, even after you have had a baby. In fact, it is quite simple to achieve a healthy at any point in your life, it just takes a little time, effort, and dedication on your part, along with some common sense of course. Oh, and the willingness to follow through on your scheme.

The best way to begin your healthy plan, especially if you have only recently had a baby, is to begin by consulting your doctor about the best plan for you to lose weight in a healthy manner. And if you are breastfeeding, you will want to keep to a sensible eating plan so that you don�t upset the natural balance of things.

A healthy plan is a must if you want to be able to function properly. To formulate one therefore should be your first priority.

It might sound a little daunting at first, to formulate your own healthy plan, but it is not an impossibility and it can be done. The most important factor that you need when you are doing this, is commonsense. Really.

With a little commonsense on your side, you can stop yourself from going over to the edge and working up a plan that is biased in favor of one type of food group and that stays strictly away from another food group.

Has anyone taken a look at the food pyramid lately? Does it look biased to you? It pretty much has just about all that you could want to know about the various food groups and in what quantities you will need them. This is actually a good place for you to start formulating your very own, personalized healthy plan.

And if you notice on this new food pyramid, you will also notice that an extra facet of the pyramid has been revealed to us, that of exercise. Any healthy plan that you formulate should ideally have some type of exercise included within it, because by reducing food intake alone, will take longer than if you included some exercise into it.

So go the distance and include exercise into your healthy plans. Before you go the distance however, or before you begin to do anything strenuous, you might first want to consult with your doctor about what type of exercise is good for you, and when you should ideally begin to exercise in earnest.

And remember, when it seems like you are taking too long to lose weight, or when your post pregnancy stomach seems to be getting the better of you, the best thing that you can do for yourself, is to take things slowly and have a healthy system in place, instead of one that might give you problems later on.

New Happenings this Week
A recent study showed that the classic sit-up is not the best exercise for stronger, flatter abdominals. This exercise generally involves the hip muscles instead of the abdominals, and in most cases, places an unnecessary amount of strain on the lower back.

Hot Fitness Tip of the Week
Carbohydrate is the predominant energy source for strength training. Stored as glycogen in the muscles, it is the fuel used to supply energy for short, intense bursts of power. The harder and longer you work out, the more glycogen your muscles require. Once these stores of glycogen are gone your energy level will drop and you will run out of fuel to power muscle contractions. For this reason, athletes doing strength training exercise in the hopes of building lean muscle need to have an adequate carbohydrates intake. Experts recommend at least 500 to 600 grams of carbohydrate per day to keep your muscle glycogen stores high. You can base your personal requirement on the following formula: 3.6gr carb x body wt(lbs)= grams carb/day
Words of Inspiration
Stay Focused: Living with purpose and clear focus helps you to understand the value of being meaningfully focused. And aimlessly wandering with no clear focus can also help you to appreciate the power of a positive purpose. Either way, life leads you surely, steadily toward your purpose. Whether you experience the pain of losing touch with that purpose, or the joy of living in harmony with it, you grow in understanding and appreciation. No day, no experience, no encounter is really wasted. Through the ups and downs, in the good times and in times of despair, you feel more intensely the longing to express who you truly are. The beauty of this day is not in its particulars. The beauty is that you can take it all in, whatever and however it may be, and add it to the substance of your being. Whatever comes along, be thankful for the opportunity to pass through it. Whatever is, go with it and grow with it. Your purpose cannot help but become stronger, as each moment passes. Feel that strength, and live it more fully, more authentically, day after day.

Time to get your abs ready for Summer: Abs are your body's center of power and provide core strength. Strong abs aid balance, help prevent lower back injuries and promote good posture. Consistent abdominal workouts (10-15 min, 4-5x per week) performed correctly are not just for physical well being, but for aesthetics too. The secret to developing great abs lies in treating your body as a complete unit. Don't make the mistake doing hundreds of repetitions of abdominal exercises in the hope of getting a flat abdominal region. A recent study showed that the classic sit-up is not the best exercise for stronger, flatter abdominals. This exercise generally involves the hip muscles instead of the abdominals, and in most cases, places an unnecessary amount of strain on the lower back. Instead, the 'crunch' is the best option. The top abdominal exercises are: Bicycle maneuver: Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor., Place your fingers on the side of your head just behind your ears., Push your lower back into the floor flattening the arch and hold., Bring your knees up to about a 45-degree angle and slowly go through a bicycle pedal motion., Touch your left elbow to your right knee, then your right elbow to your left knee in a slow and controlled manner and with full extension of each leg on every repetition., Breath evenly throughout the exercise., Perform 20-30 repetitions (up to three sets).

Water Tips

Drink plenty of water. You body needs a lot of water. Water is not just way to flush out toxin but if you have more water in your body you will generally feel healthier and fitter. This will discourage any tendency to gorge. The best thing about water is that is has no calories at all.

Start your day with a glass of water. Drink a glass of cool water first thing in the morning. It is a wonderful way to start your day and you only need a lesser quantity of your breakfast after that.

Drink a glass of water before you start the meal. Water naturally needs some space so that you feel fuller without actually having to stuff yourself.

Have another glass of water while you are having the meal. Again this is another way of making yourself full so that you can actually rise from the table eating less but feeling full just the same. Instead of drinking it one gulp, take sips after each morsel. It will help the food to settle faster so that you get that feeling that you are full faster.
