Health / Danger Associated With Pot Belly: Causes, Preventive Measures And Treatment by Weightloss123(m): 6:11pm On Sep 16, 2018
Dangers of Pot Belly: Causes, Preventive Measures and Treatment

Firstly, a pot belly is also known as abdominal obesity or central obesity, both male and female are liable belly fat.

Pot-belly

Causes

This is usually as a result of the accumulation of fat around the abdomen due to consumption of fatty foods, foods high in calories, high intake of alcohol without exercise, weak abdominal muscles, age etc.

The major causes of abdominal obesity were listed above but it also can be influenced by gene i.e. it may be hereditary or environmental- persistence social, family and financial strains cause stress, which in turn triggers stress in the stress-response network of the brain to produce glucocorticoids. Glucocorticoid is a hormone which increases the desire for food and secretion of insulin promoting food intake and obesity.

Wealth: an increase in income is most likely accompanied by a more sedentary life style and a probable consumption of meals high in total calory.

Preventive measures

It should be noted that it is easier to accumulate abdominal fat than to get rid of it. You have to be on a vigilant nutritious diet having in mind that dietary supplements will work but only for a short period of time.

Treatment

Instead, indulge in regular exercise both aerobic and anaerobic, consume food rich in dietary fiber such as oat, barley, wheat, citrus etc.

This is because apart it from being low in calory, high fiber containing foods helps you get full without eating so much, unlike the fatty foods which produce more than twice of the kilo calorie of other food nutrients (i.e. protein and carbohydrate have a caloric measure of 4kc while fats and oil are 9kc).

Remember, regular exercises such as brisk walking, swimming, cycling are important as pot belly put you at risk of certain diseases like; Type 2 Diabetes, cirrhosis, heart diseases, insulin resistance, hypertension and much more.
Health / Best Weight Loss Fruits In Nigeria by Weightloss123(m): 3:04am On Sep 11, 2018
What are the best fruits for weight loss?

Regular consumption of fruit improves metabolism, which is very important for weight loss. Fruits are beneficial, but, are all fruits allowed to be consumed while dieting? After all, many fruits are high in calories and won`t contribute to weight loss at all. What are the best fruits for weight loss in Nigeria.

Fruits help not only to satisfy hunger but also to get rid of excess fat. To do this, it`s sufficient that the bulk of the daily diet consists of fruits, berries, and vegetables. Not everyone knows what kind of fruit you can eat while losing weight. But the fact they must necessarily be present on the menu is unequivocal.

Firstly, fruits are saturated with the necessary minerals, vitamins, trace elements. Also, a person won`t feel the lack of vitamins during weight loss. After all, if you give up some products, it leads to an imbalance of nutrients. Secondly, almost all fruits have a curative effect on the digestive system. So, thanks to the fibre, all the slags and toxins from the intestine are removed. Also, fruits eliminate oedema and actively burn fats. All this contributes to effective weight loss.

Best fruits to eat for weight loss: top-10
During dieting, it is necessary to know which fruits for weight loss and fat burning are useful, and which cannot be used, especially in the evening. It all depends on the caloric content, the glycemic index, and the amount of sugar. Based on these criteria, the fruits are divided into those that promote weight gain, and those that help lose weight. Below is a list of fruits that aren`t only healthy but also help to fight extra pounds.

1. Apples
Do you know that apples are some of the best fat burners? They are high in fiber and low in calories. Besides, this super fruit is rich in vitamins and minerals. If you want to be slim and healthy, eat at least one apple a day!

2. Pears
This fruit is a great helper for weight loss. The pear contains a large amount of fibre, so many fruits fade against its background. The high content of vegetable fibres will help to keep the satiety feeling longer, so you will eat less, and as a result, will lose extra pounds. Besides, thanks to the content of potassium, pears reduce cholesterol and have a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system.

3. Watermelon
Watermelon for weight loss is an ideal berry, with many useful properties. It has a diuretic effect, and high fiber content excellently excites cholesterol, salt and excess sugar from the body, which will have a good impact on overall well-being. The digestive and excretory system is adjusted. With the help of antioxidants, which are in berries, the condition of hair, nails, and skin improves. It prevents premature aging of the body and the formation of cancerous tumors.

4. Grapefruits
Have you heard about the grapefruit diet? Grapefruit is an excellent fat burner. Yes, this amazing fruit is considered one of the best in terms of fat burning, but eating grapefruit alone all the day isn`t the best option. Also, such a diet cannot be called balanced. Studies have proven that you can accelerate weight loss by eating half of this fruit before eating. Besides, grapefruit is low-calorie, half of the fruit contains only 37 calories, and, a lot of fibre! Eat half of the grapefruit before breakfast, and this will help you to speed up the metabolism and lose weight quickly!

5. Kiwi
The delicious fruit with a sweet and sour taste is extremely rich in fibre, so kiwis are ideal for combating obesity. Probably, you will be interested in learning that small black seeds in kiwi are a rich source of insoluble fibre, which improves digestion. Besides, kiwi contains soluble vegetable fibres. Kiwi is a wonderful superfruit, which must be in your diet!

6. Pineapples
Due to its rich composition, the fruit quickly cleaves protein foods. Nutritionists recommend to include pineapple in dietary nutrition. However, nutritionists do not recommend eating the fruit in the evening. Otherwise, there will not be burning of the already existing excess fat.

7. Pomegranates
According to research data, antioxidants contained in pomegranate and polyphenolic compounds can stimulate metabolism in the body. Also, it is beneficial for the prevention of atherosclerosis. The fruit lowers the level of harmful cholesterol, improves blood circulation, removes harmful toxins from the body, and reduces appetite. Pomegranate is another superfruit to fight overweight! And although it isn`t easy to clean it, all the difficulties fully pay off with its useful properties!

8. Peaches
These fruits are ideal for a low-calorie diet. Besides, they are rich in fibre, potassium, and vitamins. The results of many studies prove that peaches are a good source of antioxidants, which makes them especially useful for health.

9. Strawberry
It helps to fight excess weight because it stimulates the production of adiponectin and leptin - hormones that help burn fat and speed up metabolic processes. If you add strawberries to your healthy and balanced diet, then you can significantly accelerate the metabolic processes in the body. Don`t forget, of course, about exercises. Strawberry also contains anti-inflammatory enzymes that promote tissue healing in case of damage to internal organs and skin. Eat a little strawberry every day, and you won`t only improve your health but also accelerate your metabolism.

10. Papaya
It is a delightfully delicious fruit that resembles the consistency of soft butter. Papaya has a lot of health benefits. It perfectly fights with excess weight due to the unique natural enzyme, which promotes a faster passage of food through the digestive tract. Besides, papaya is a rich source of antioxidants, such as carotenes, vitamin C, and flavonoids. And this is a multipurpose product, which you can eat with pleasure in a raw form or add it to main dishes.

It is known that during the period of losing weight, there is a decline in strength, apathy, and mood deterioration. Also, berries and fruits help to get rid of cellulite and prevent it from reappearing. It sounds like magic, you can lose weight and get rid of so hated cellulite. Of course, you should remember that the right diet will have results only combined with exercises.

Fruits also will help get rid of bouts of hunger for an extended period. You just need to pick the right fruit for weight loss according to your taste, of course.
Health / Health Risk Of Being Overweight by Weightloss123(m): 6:26pm On Sep 02, 2018
Health Risks Linked to Obesity

Obesity is a term that means you have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher. It makes you more likely to have conditions including:

Heart disease and stroke
High blood pressure
Diabetes
Some cancers
Gallbladder disease and gallstones
Osteoarthritis
Gout
Breathing problems, such as sleep apnea (when a person stops breathing for short episodes during sleep) and asthma


Not everyone who is obese has these problems. The risk rises if you have a family history of one of those conditions.

Also, where your weight is may matter. If it's mostly around your stomach (the "apple" shape), that may be riskier than if you have a "pear" shape, meaning that your extra weight is mostly around your hips and buttocks.

Surprising Reasons You're Gaining Weight

The possible causes of sudden weight gain, when there are no changes in diet or exercise. Learn about the effects of certain medications, some medical conditions, sleep issues, and more.

Here's a closer look at seven conditions that are linked to being obese or overweight.

Heart Disease and Stroke
Extra weight makes you more likely to have high blood pressure and high cholesterol. Both of those conditions make heart disease or stroke more likely.

The good news is that losing a small amount of weight can reduce your chances of developing heart disease or a stroke. Losing even more weight has been shown to lower the risk even more.

Type 2 Diabetes
Most people who have type 2 diabetes are overweight or obese. You can cut your risk of developing type 2 diabetes by losing weight, eating a balanced diet, getting adequate sleep, and exercising more.

If you have type 2 diabetes, losing weight and becoming more physically active can help control your blood sugar levels. Becoming more active may also reduce your need for diabetes medication.

Cancer
Cancers of the colon, breast (after menopause), endometrium (the lining of the uterus), kidney, and esophagus are linked to obesity. Some studies have also reported links between obesity and cancers of the gallbladder, ovaries, and pancreas.

Gallbladder Disease
Gallbladder disease and gallstones are more common if you are overweight.


Ironically, weight loss itself, particularly rapid weight loss or loss of a large amount of weight, can make you more likely to get gallstones. Losing weight at a rate of about 1 pound a week is less likely to cause gallstones.

Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is a common joint condition that most often affects the knee, hip, or back. Carrying extra pounds places extra pressure on these joints and wears away the cartilage (tissue cushioning the joints) that normally protects them.


Weight loss can ease stress on the knees, hips, and lower back and may improve the symptoms of osteoarthritis.

Gout
Gout is a disease that affects the joints. It happens when you have too much uric acid in your blood. The extra uric acid can form crystals that deposit in the joints.


Gout is more common in overweight people. The more you weigh, the more likely you are to get gout.


Over the short term, sudden weight changes may lead to a flare-up of gout. If you have a history of gout, check with your doctor for the best way to lose weight.

Sleep Apnea
Sleep apnea is a breathing condition that's linked to being overweight.


Sleep apnea can cause a person to snore heavily and to briefly stop breathing during sleep. Sleep apnea may cause daytime sleepiness and make heart disease and stroke more likely.


Weight loss often improves sleep apnea.

The Diabetes Breakthrough

The diabetes breakthrough you are about to discover on this page is twice as effective as the leading type 2 drug at normalizing blood sugar. Studies also show how patients are able to fix insulin resistance, reduce neuropathy pain, prevent blindness, amputations and other diabetes problems. These techniques have been used successfully by tens of thousands of people in over 40 countries allowing them to lower their need for drugs and injections.

Health / The Two Weeks Diet Plan For Weight Loss by Weightloss123(m): 2:14am On Aug 07, 2018
What Is It?
The 2 Week Diet was created by weight loss expert Brian Flatt. It is a new weight loss program that promises to help you lose weight faster than anything you’ve tried before.

The program claims to work by utilizing fast and safe fat burning methods to assist users in getting significant weight loss results in 2 weeks. It specifically claims that it can help you lose up to 16 pounds of body fat within 14 days of going on the diet.

My thoughts on this: Losing 16 pounds in 2 weeks may seem like an extreme goal when it comes to weight loss. And for some people, it may not be a recommended approach.

But the fact is extremely fast weight loss can be achieved safely if the plan you are following is designed with the right principles. Also, if you have a lot of fat to lose, an extreme diet plan may just right for you. The only time you may really want to worry about consequences of fast weight loss is when you are already lean and using no strategy maintain muscle and keep the metabolism running.

The 2 Week Diet incorporates special protocols to promote fast weight loss and minimize the side effects that could occur from the extreme approach. So although the diet is promising radical weight loss, it is designed with some solid strategies to make the process safe and healthy for the users, read on....http://efrithin..com/2018/07/the-two-weeks-diet-plan.html
Health / Best Detox Drinks To Lose Weight Fast by Weightloss123(m): 3:44pm On Jul 16, 2018
When trying to lose weight, we should not only rely on certain types of diets and exercise routines, but also detox liquids. Though a good diet is imperative for weight loss, it is essential you include detox drinks to make it more effective.

Detox drinks are excellent for digestion, and if your digestion is good, then your weight loss journey will be easier. By definition, detox drinks help in flushing out toxins from the body and boost the body’s metabolism.

We tell you three home-made detox drinks that you can start having right away.

1. Lemon and ginger detox drink

This is a wonder drink which is very effective for weight loss. Squeeze half a lemon in a glass of lukewarm water and add an inch of grated ginger. Drink this every morning and check your weight after 1-2 months.

“Ginger contains gingerol which is known to prevent stomach problems and aid digestion. Lemons are not only rich in Vitamin C but also antioxidants which fight the production of free radicals in the body. When combined with an effective exercise regimen, this can work wonders,” says Delhi-based Sujata Sharma, who is a diabetes educator for the BeatO app.

2. Cinnamon and honey

Cinnamon is known to curb cravings while honey aids metabolism,” says Shivani Jotwani, a Delhi-based nutritionist for the medical app, Lybrate.

3. Cucumber and mint detox drink

This mixture not only helps in flushing out toxins from the body, but is also good to taste. Cucumber and mint when added to water are a good combination for digestion. Take a large pitcher and add a few cucumber slices along with fresh mint leaves. Let it infuse for some time and keep drinking from it the entire day.

Cucumber contains antioxidants which help fight free radicals and due to its hydrating effect it aids in the removal of toxins from the body.

4. Green tea

“This is a calorie-free drink and something that most weight-watchers swear by. Green tea contains catechins, antioxidants that help suppress the production of free radicals in the body. It has also been shown to activate the body’s thermogenic fat-burning activity,” says Sharma.

5. Cranberry juice

Health / Your Obese Child & School Nutrition – Kids Health by Weightloss123(m): 1:03am On Jul 07, 2018
Good Nutrition in School Can Help to Fight Childhood Obesity

Perhaps you are trying to help your child lose weight, or you feel he or she may be in danger of becoming overweight or unhealthy because of their eating and exercise habits.

If so, it is important that you consider the impact of your child’s time at school as you think about what you need to change.

As the U.S. government has studied obesity, many of their agencies have produced reports and established guidelines to help parents and school systems understand how to make important changes.

These guidelines are designed to encourage our children to eat healthy foods and get plenty of exercise.

Across the country, schools are beginning to offer more good food choices, and look at their physical education and extra curricular activities to ensure that they encourage good habits.

Weight loss abc
Of course your involvement and understanding is important if your child is going to get the right support while she or he is in school during the day.

And, you need to ensure that your child understands the importance of CHOOSING the healthy foods and participating in exercise programs, but the first step is to make sure these choices are AVAILABLE to your child.

Working with medical organizations, the USDA published a Prescription for Change, and Healthy School Nutrition Environments.

These reports were meant to be used by schools to improve their nutritional program.

Weight loss ABC
Here are some of the recommendations included in those reports.
** The Serving and Dining Environment
** The Federal, State and local government must provide adequate funding for food and eating environs to support healthy eating.

** Dining space will be adequate, pleasant and socially accommodating, and will accommodate all students and staff scheduled to eat at a certain time of day.

** Serving areas will be sufficient to ensure that every student has access to meals with a minimum of waiting time, so that they have plenty of time to eat before their next class.

** The staff and administration of the school, AND the students and parents will analyze the current environment, working together to create a space that matches the needs of all parties.

Nutritional Concerns Regarding Meals and Foods
** Meals should comply with USDA nutritional standards and guidelines, and students should have plenty of food choices, with new foods introduced to keep the menu interesting and healthy.

** Food preparation and preferences should be varied enough to comply with various tastes and ethnic preferences or religious requirements.

** Additional food and drink offered, over and above meals served, e.g. vending machines and packaged snacks, will represent the 5 major food groups in the Food Guide Pyramid.

**Students must have designated lunch periods, long enough for them to get their food and eat at a healthy pace.

** Lunch periods should be as close to the middle of the day as possible and should allow time for socialization and a relaxed eating pace.

** All decisions made by the school system regarding the type, variety and quantity of food and drink to be sold in the school will be based on nutritional goals and sound guidelines, NOT on the profit the school can make.

Nutrition and Health Focused Curriculum
** Kindergarten through Grade 12 classes should include education and information on healthy eating habits and the types of foods a child should eat to stay healthy and help them grow.

Now that you understand the concerns and recommendations of the USDA and the national medical organizations, go to a school board meeting and talk to the board members about what they are doing to comply with these guidelines.

If you dont know what your childs eating environment and food choices are, visit the school and find out. Get involved with the PTA or PTO in your school system and get to work!
Health / Importance Of Vitamin B12 by Weightloss123(m): 12:54am On Jul 07, 2018
The 12 b vitamin is one of the b vitamins that are essential to maintain a healthy body. Otherwise known as Cobalamin, the 12b vitamin is needed for the processes to convert the carbohydrates, fats and proteins from food into energy. 12 b also, more importantly, helps keep the red blood cells healthy and therefore prevent heart disease as well as keeping the immune system functioning at its maximum level. In addition, 12 b is used to create the protective covering of all nerve cells in the body.

Read Also: Understanding The Interrelationship Between Vitamins, visit site to read

The most important function of 12 b is to form healthy red blood cells. However, all cells need 12 b to keep them healthy. It is the white blood cells, amongst others, that need 12 b to help ensure that the immune system functioning properly. All of the nerve cells in the body also need 12 b to form their protective fatty layer. This is essential for all of the nerves but is especially so for those in the brain. If there is not sufficient 12 b to create this protective layer then the brain will not be functioning properly.

Interestingly, the amount of 12 b that the body needs is relatively small but is needed on a regular basis. However, 12 b on its own is not enough as the body cannot absorb it easily. To help the body absorb 12 b the stomach produces intrinsic factor which enables more of the 12 b to be absorbed. 12 b is only found in animal foods such as liver, eggs, fish and meat but most people consume far more than their recommended daily amount of 12 b.

This is not a problem as the body can only absorb about half of the 12 b that is consumed. It is also worth noting that the body can recycle the 12 b which cuts down on the impact of a 12 b deficiency. However, strict vegetarians or vegans are likely to require 12 b supplements if they do not eat any animal products that contain 12 b.

If the body does not have enough 12 b then anaemia is the most obvious symptom. Obviously, this is due to the fact that there is not enough 12 b to make healthy red blood cells. Anaemia can also be caused by the body not creating enough intrinsic factor to help absorb the 12 b that is available in the food consumed.

The body tends to makes less intrinsic factor once a person reaches 50 and this will lead to less 12 b being absorbed and supplements of 12 b may be required. Kids are also at risk from anaemia because they may not eat the food that contain 12 b. Pregnant women need more 12 b because the baby is absorbing 12 b during the pregnancy to grow properly.

Angina, one type of heart disease, could cause chest pains as well as a decrease in the oxygen pumped to the heart.

Sudden death also occurs from heart disease and stroke, and usually this strikes with very little warning, signs and symptoms.
It is a fact that by decreasing your weight by a mere five to ten percent, this could positively decrease the chances of you having or developing heart disease or a stroke. Plus, how your heart functions would also improve as well as your blood pressure, cholesterol and triglyceride count will decrease.

2. Weight loss prevents type 2 diabetes

Diabetes puts in jeopardy ones life as well as how one leads his or her life because of the complications that result from having it.

Increase your physical activity. You could simply walk, jog or dance. It helps get those blood streams moving as well as lose those unnecessary pounds.

3. Weight loss helps reduce your risk for cancer

Being overweight is linked with a number of kinds of cancer. Specially for women, the common types of cancer that is associated with being overweight include cancer of the uterus, gallbladder, ovary, breast, and colon. This is not meant to scare you, this is only to keep you informed. Men are at risk too from developing cancer if they are overweight. These include cancer of the colon, prostate and rectum.

4. Weight loss reduces sleep apnea Or it could eliminate it all together.

Sleep apnea is a condition wherein one could temporarily stop breathing for a brief period and then would continue to snore heavily. Sleep apnea could cause drowsiness or sleepiness during the day and because of being overweight could result in heart failure. Shedding those excess pounds could help in eliminating this problem.

5. Weight loss reduces the pain of osteoarthritis

When one weighs heavily, the joints of his or her knees, hips and lower back would have to exert double if not triple effort to carry him or her through out his / her waking, walking and moving life. This could cause tension and stress on these joints. Weight loss decreases the load these joints carry thus decreasing if not eliminating the pain of one who has osteoarthritis.

This weight loss system is designed to be a totally comprehensive all in one system which provides people with all the resources needed to lose weight fast and safely. Refreshingly there’s absolutely no additional purchases required with 2 Week Diet guide. That’s right – no ludicrously expensive food supplements (most of which are placebos anyway), pricey additional literature or monthly fees. Brian Flatt is looking to buck this exploitative trend that dominates so many alternative diet systems, and literally includes everything needed in one single purchase. Even better the literature and guidance provided is comprehensive, easy to follow and also guaranteed for 60 days. Here’s a lowdown on what clients will receive from the four handbooks after joining the 2 Week Diet pdf.

The Key Features of the 2 Week Diet Program

The Launch Handbook

Definitely the first place to start in order to understand the straightforward science behind this weight loss system, Brian Flatt describes in his friendly, accessible style why the 2 Week Diet works so well. More so it explains why so many readers will have failed using other dieting plans in the past, and how his program is based upon proven nutritional science and expertise. Some of the information will sound similar to the popular keto diet, but this 2 Week Diet system demonstrates how to perform this style of weight loss in a healthier and more efficient manner. The target is to lose excess fat while easily retaining and enhancing body muscle.

The Diet Handbook

This booklet gets into the practical means of performing the diet. Again heavily based upon good nutritional practice, Flatt describes which foods are most suitable for individuals depending upon their body type and current weight/level of of personal fitness. Distinguishing between body types is again central to the 2 Week Diet plan. What suits one person is never automatically appropriate for others. Fret not though, the data is presented in the easy going, most highly readable and posses the accurate 100% factual manner one would expect from a leading nutritionist. 2 Week Diet pdf describes in plain English which foods must be totally avoided, while also suggesting alternatives that keep the body healthy and packed with energy. Also in the typically pragmatic, everyday nature that is so central to the program, these foods are affordable, widely available and feature absolutely zero gimmicks! So our 2 Week Diet review first impression is bright positive here.

The Activity Handbook

Let’s be honest – there’s no shortage of reasons why many people really dislike undergoing heavy amounts of exercise. This 2 Week Diet exercise guide understands this better than any other program and is unusually sympathetic to those who can’t perform intense regular exercise. Throughout this booklet readers are reassured that even those who don’t run a mile or lift a weight will still consistently drop weight – just a little slower than those willing to sweat a little. Even better all 2 Week Diet exercises can be performed at home and without needing to invest in any equipment, and the benefits for those able to carry them out are explained in the relaxed manner that’s so central to this weight loss system.

The Motivational Handbook

Even though 2 weeks will pass in a blink of the eye, there’s always that temptation to return to unhealthy eating and living especially during the first few days. Once again the 2 Week Diet program approaches this realistically and with a genuine sense of compassion – after all rapid weight loss is a mental endeavor as much as a physical one. Brian Flatt explains in stages the benefits that will just be around the corner should people focus and remain motivated, using scientific evidence to relay what stages the body is at throughout the fortnight. This handbook really serves to tie the entire 2 Week Diet guide together and makes frequent references to the other three books to remind people of the importance to stick to the core principles of the system.

The 2 Week Diet Book

Taken as a whole these four handbooks serve to explain the weight loss process while providing essential support throughout the two weeks. It also notes how many people who use the 2 Week Diet by Brian Flatt will be looking to drop a lot of weight, and provides plenty of healthy advice to continue the weight loss routine in the longer term and also how to effectively stop it coming back! Taken as a whole our honest 2 Week Diet review finds that it’s about healthily and with relative ease – converting the body into a fat burning furnace. Best of all and as we’ll see later in this 2 Week Diet Routine, it genuinely will work for absolutely anyone determined to stick to the plan.

Pros And Cons Of The 2 Week Diet Plan

So far it should be pretty clear that this is an intelligently presented and fully comprehensive method for losing weight fast. How much depends upon body type, fitness and commitment to additional exercise but even the most casual adherent will find that they’ll lose masses of unhealthy body fat. Over the two weeks it’s realistic to lose anywhere between 10-20 pounds healthily over just a fortnight. Thousands of people have already done so, and the results are very noticeable indeed.

Food / Tips For Living With Diabetes by Weightloss123(m): 9:49am On Jun 03, 2018
Each of these come from diabetes friends, colleagues, peers and me.

These tips are in no particular order, and they won’t all apply to you. However, if you find one or two you can put into practice, your life and your health may vastly improve. Tips for Living With Diabetes

Keep your glucose meter always in the same place so you don’t have to go looking for it. Mine is on my kitchen counter resting beside two small stuffed bunnies always smiling up at me.
Get a dilated eye exam every year from an ophthalmologist. But here’s what no one tells you:

Lower the blinds in your house before you leave for your appointment and bring sunglasses — even if it’s raining.

Lancing devices that allow you to check your blood sugar on your palm just below your thumb give you very similar numbers as your fingertips do.
Use a 100-hour timer and set it to 72 hours to know when to change your insulin pump infusion site.

Keep your glucose meter in a brightly-colored case, not the black one it came in. You’ll find it quickly. It may also make you smile more.

Simple carbohydrates spike your blood sugar, requiring more insulin. Insulin is a fat storage hormone. Cut down on refined carbs and watch your blood sugar spikes reduce as well as your waistline.

Drop the idea that you’re going to do this “diabetes thing” perfectly. It’s impossible, and I’m a “recovering perfectionist.”

Exercise in the morning so you don’t have time to talk yourself out of it. I take my hour walk after breakfast before the day becomes a 12-car pile up.

If you use two insulin pens, wrap a rubber band or ribbon around one. It can prevent ending up in the hospital like countless others have who mixed up their pens.

Take a full minute to look at your child/children before leaving the house. That’s why it’s worth taking care of your diabetes. Okay, you can look at your spouse or your dog too.
Clear a path from your bed to the bathroom so when you get up in the middle of the night to pee you won’t hurt yourself or wake up the neighbors.

Opt for plain Greek yogurt instead of regular — it has more protein, less carbohydrates and is way more fashionable.

Use endive, cabbage and lettuce leaves as a scoop for dips and ditch the crackers and chips.
Make two or three boxes of different flavored sugar-free Jello, pour 6-8 ounces into plastic cups and pop them into the refrigerator. When you need a snack, they’re ready to go.

Substitute almond meal for flour when making biscotti or many other cookie type confections. Sure, they crumble, but they taste great and have a LOT less carbs.
Need more exercise? Get a dog.

Replace the clothes on your stationary bike with a book rack. I don’t care, Daily Devotional readings or Fifty Shades of Grey, just get on and pedal.

To raise low blood sugar eat fast-acting carbs such as four glucose tabs or 2 Tbs of honey or a handful of Skittles or drink a glass of skim milk. Two slices of toast with raspberry preserves, three Oreos and a slice of pecan pie a la mode is a slow and — once you’ve looked at the calories you’ve consumed — painful method for raising blood sugar.

Keep cans of soda at home, the office, your briefcase, your locker, in your car. It’s okay to have a sugary drink when your low blood sugar’s making the world a very fuzzy place.
Join a diabetes social media site or make a diabetes friend. You need someone in your circle who “gets it.”

If you take insulin or a glucose-lowering medication, be prepared for lows. Keep glucose tablets or SweeTarts in all your jacket pockets, purses and bags — and sneak them into your husband’s too. Yes, personal experience.

Ask your doctor to write scripts for your pills at twice the dose and cut them in half. Also, see if she’ll give you some samples from that big closet in her office.

If you need to cut down on fat and protein go the Latin way: less meat more rice — brown of course — and beans.

See everything you try to manage your diabetes as an experiment and learn from it. Failure doesn’t exist.

Diabetes is a marathon, not a sprint. Learn everything you can and do the best you can. Then applaud yourself for everything you do and say three Hail Marys and one Jewish blessing that this year your son will marry a doctor.
Health / 1 Pound Of Fat = 3,500 Calories by Weightloss123(m): 8:02am On May 29, 2018
There are 3,500 calories in one pound of fat. Thus, if you cut back or work off just 3,500 calories, you will lose an entire pound of fat. While it is possible to cut back on your calorie intake and increase your exercise regimen in order to lose pounds quickly, it is important to note that doctors recommend that you lose no more than 2 pounds of weight per week in order to ensure that your body properly adjusts to the weight loss.

Here are some tips to help you safely drop 3,500 from your regular routine:

Run

Running for about 1 hour at a slow pace will help you lose approximately 350 calories, depending on your body type, speed and terrain. Thus, if you run for one hour five days a week while maintaining a consistent diet, you will safely lose one pound.

It is important to understand that many people who just begin running will eat pasta and other foods high in carbohydrates in order to compensate for the exertion. They think that because they worked out so hard, they deserve a treat. After all, they justify, the pasta will help to keep their energy levels high.

However, what they may not realize is that while they are justified in thinking that the carbohydrates will infuse their workout routine with energy, they are not actually setting their bodies up to lose weight. When you burn 350 calories but intake 450 over a high-carbohydrate pasta dish, you are adding more calories to your body than you otherwise would have.

Running does, however, help to boost our metabolism and change your muscle tone so that you burn calories more efficiently. Instead of inhaling a pasta dish after a run, select instead to have a large salad and splurge for the carbohydrate-rich croutons.

Eat In

When you eat out at a restaurant, not only are you subjecting your body to an array of high fat, high calorie foods, but you are also tempting yourself to eat a larger portion than you might normally eat. Therefore, what could be a simple 500 calories meal can easily turn into a 1500-calorie fat fest. In order to lose weight by cutting calories, it is essential that you are aware of exactly what you are putting into your body. Especially in the beginning of your new routine, it is important that you prepare your meals and monitor your level of hunger.

When eating out, generally you are in a social situation where food is not a priority but spending time with your friends is. For this reason, people tend to eat more than they normally would. Non-dessert eaters often even spring for the extra round of calories. If you must eat out, help yourself avoid temptation by selecting a salad rather than a plate of pasta or burger. You will be amazed at the difference in the amount of calories you intake when you make simple choices such as meal option.

By reducing your overall calorie intake and increasing your level of physical activity, you will be able to lose those 3,500 calories without much trouble. Make sure that you stay focused, motivated and on task. You'll shed unwanted weight in no time!
