Overeat with No Weight Gain?

mlheawjf — Fri, 13 May 2011 16:25:03 +0000

Mike Geary, author of best selling book “Truth About Abs” experiments with intense overeating on himself
“I wanted to see if I could actually GAIN unwanted body fat by eating as much food as I wanted for 6 weeks straight. My theory was that if you eat the right types of food and don’t stray from those foods, the body will automatically rebalance itself, even though you’re attempting to overeat.
I couldn’t just eat any and all types of foods… I would overeat on as much food as I wanted, but ONLY the foods that are “approved” according to my rules (the same rules Isabel teaches in The Diet Solution Program).
You’re not going to believe what happened. The end result after 6 weeks of trying to stuff my face with as much healthy food as possible: My body weight stayed EXACTLY the same! I didn’t gain a single pound.
I know the first reaction of many people is that I just must have a “fast metabolism” or something along those lines and that’s why I didn’t gain weight – But that is false!
The truth is that I have no problem at all gaining weight when I overeat on junk food or processed food in general. I can guarantee you that if I was overeating on those foods during the 6 weeks, I would have gained a massive amount of weight.
In fact, in the past I’ve easily gained as much as 10 lbs in only 1 week when I’ve been on some sort of vacation and simply ate the normal types of processed foods that everyone else was eating.
This proves that I’m just as prone to gaining weight as anybody else. Eating nutrient dense foods forces the body to readjust, just like I theorized. Not only that, but this is the type of eating that pretty much totally eliminates cravings…
You just cannot get fat when you make the right food choices and you just can’t help but burn fat off your body when you make the same great food choices. As I’ve mentioned before, I think one of the programs that gives some of the best guidelines for eating healthy and truly enjoying your food for lifelong success is Isabel De Los Rios’ program”
Mike has an extremely effective fitness program and also shares many of the same nutrition principles that I follow. His program is called The Truth About Abs and you can check it out here.

Weight Loss Review: The Diet Solution vs. The Four Hour Body

mlheawjf — Mon, 09 May 2011 02:40:01 +0000

There is no question that a healthy diet contributes to a Healthy Body and a Healthy Lifestyle. Generally we think we know what a healthy diet looks like. We have “good” and “bad” labels for many of our foods. We even know the mantra “whole grains, low fat” Some of us even sing ourselves to sleep on that. But with so much conflicting information about diet and health, it’s hard to know what food choices contribute most to our fitness and keep us healthy. It’s hard to sift throught all of the “diet” choices to find a solution that fits. Especially when our goal is weight loss. Maybe we’ve been chanting the “whole grains, low fat” mantra without successful weight control, and the diet solutions can be overwhelming and discouraging.

Two of the more recent contributions to the weight loss scene are The Diet Solution and The Four Hour Body. Both programs offer science based solutions for a healthy lifestyle and a fit and slender body.

Tim Ferris’ book The Four Hour Body is a comprehensive approach to fat loss and muscle growth. Although outside of conventional approaches to weight loss, diet, and exercise, there are clear, scientific evaluations of the results. Certainly ahead of it’s time in the general population, nonetheless, a complete, research based guide for a very healthy level of fitness and weight. Laid out in easy to read chapters, that allow the reader to select only those areas that are applicable, it also is designed to allow the reader to select the level of detail, by separating the science from the practical application.

This is an approach for the person who doesn’t want to make a career out of their weight loss plan.The philospophy is based on minimal efforts for maximum results.

The Diet Solution offers great education about the way the body processes various foods and practical information on how to optimize weight loss results based on this information. Using the Glycemic Index as a guideline for food choices, the reader can design a meal plan that regulates the energy needs of the body. It is a comprehensive approach and the materials are easy to understand and incorporate into a healthy lifestyle.

Both The Four Hour Body and The Diet Solution, put you in control of your weight loss results.
Still can’t decide? Ask yourself these questions: Are you a person who likes routine and does better with fewer choices? Do you dislike exercise, but would be willing to do a little bit to get the results you want? Can you delay the gratification of a “want” if you know that it is built into your plan? If you answered yes to these questions, then try out The Four Hour Body by Tim Ferris.

If that doesn’t fit just right for you then try these questions: Do you enjoy meal preparation and a variety of foods? Do you like the feeling you get from exercise? Does your active lifestyle require flexbility from day to day? Does it seem like you already eat “healthy” but are still struggling with your weight? If this is more like you, then check out The Diet Solution.

No matter which approach you choose, it will only give you the results you want if it fits your perosnality and lifestyle. So make your choice: Choose Health! Choose Happiness!

NovaMind Mind Mapping Software Adds Microsoft Project Import and Export; Mind Manager Import

NovaMind Mind Mapping Software Adds Microsoft Project Import and Export; Mind Manager Import

Task information on a Mind Map

(PRWEB) July 1, 2008

Brisbane, Australia July 1, 2008 — For some time, the Windows edition of the NovaMind Mind Mapping program (Platinum edition) has had the ability to add project related information like start and finish dates, percentage complete, priorities, and assign resources to the branches on the Mind Maps.

Unlike the Mac version of NovaMind which can be imported directly into Merlin, the Windows edition did not have any way of getting the information over into a project management package.

Now that has all changed with the introduction of both import and export of Microsoft Project XML files. This means that it is possible to carry out the project inception phases in NovaMind, brainstorming your ideas and working out the project’s scope and objectives, then export into Microsoft Project format for detailed project management.

The Microsoft Project file format has become the de facto standard for project management applications, so just about any project management software will be able to use the MS Project format.

During the project, if it is necessary to bring someone new on to the project or brainstorm solutions to particular problems in the project, the whole project file can be imported into NovaMind, or a portion of the project plan can be exported from the project management package and opened in NovaMind. Using the Mind Map format makes it easy to see the interrelationships between objectives and requirements and tasks within the scope of the project. This makes it a powerful tool for both understanding where all the different pieces of the project fit together, and also for designing solutions to project related issues.

The Microsoft Project import and export functionality is available immediately as a free update for NovaMind Platinum for Windows users, and will be integrated into the NovaMind Platinum Mac product shortly.

Mind Manager Import

The Pro and Platinum editions of NovaMind for Windows also now have the capability of importing Mind Manager files. A lot of users have old Mind Maps that they want to convert to NovaMind format and work with in NovaMind, and sometimes people receive Mind Manager files from colleagues. This capability has been built in to the Windows version of NovaMind Pro and Platinum to address this need.

Mind Manager import and export has been in the Mac version of NovaMind for several years, but the techniques used in the Windows product gives a better result, so this code will be ported to the Mac, and it will be available shortly in the Pro and Platinum editions for Mac.

The updates to the Windows versions are available for immediate download through the “check for update” feature within NovaMind or by downloading the software from the NovaMind web site.

About NovaMind

NovaMind has been the top Mind Mapping program available on Mac computers for the last 6 years, and is rapidly gaining recognition in the Windows market. NovaMind makes Mind Mapping intuitive and fun.

Join The Healthy Happy Kidz Community & See What?s For Dinner For Kids With Diabetes

Join The Healthy Happy Kidz Community & See What’s For Dinner For Kids With Diabetes

Recipe & Food Ideas For Kids With Diabetes

Sterling, VA (PRWEB) April 2, 2011

A new website, Healthy Happy Kidz, offers a place where parents with children who are managing diabetes can go and share recipes, snack ideas and other food recommendations.

With the number of diabetes cases poised to explode over the next few decades, the dietary needs of children managing diabetes is a growing concern. Closely monitoring carbohydrate intake is the cornerstone to a healthy diet for someone with diabetes. Yet finding foods and meal ideas to satisfy the tastes of kids and the rest of their families can very difficult.

“If everyone ate the diet required to keep diabetes on track, most of us would lead much healthier – and happier – lifestyles,” says Melissa Arnold, co-founder of Healthy Happy Kidz. Ms..Arnold, a cook at heart, came up with the idea for the Healthy Happy Kidz site after her oldest son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and she went searching for recipes that were good for him to eat and that the rest of the family would like. When her search turned up little, she decided to collect her own recipes.

“There a several sites that cater to cooking for adults with diabetes,” continues Beth McNamara, who has partnered with Ms. Arnold to launch Healthy Happy Kidz, “but none focus on the needs and tastes of kids with diabetes and their families.”

Healthy Happy Kidz encourages parents to submit recipes and other food ideas to share with other families in the diabetes community. Recipes and ideas can be submitted or found at: http://www.healthyhappykidz.com.

mlheawjf — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 06:48:09 +0000

Think Security® Launches Revolutionary Two-Factor Authentication Solution

Vancouver, BC, Canada (PRWEB) December 6, 2005

Think Security® today announced the commercial release of its Consumer Web Version of Think In!™. This is the first highly impenetrable two-factor authentication solution that is cost-effective for firms that provide internet transaction and information services to very large customer bases, such as Internet banking sites and wealth management firms. Think In!™ is engineered using cognitive, psychological and statistical methods to determine person-presence for authorizing system access and transaction ability. It is easy for users to learn and uses existing infrastructure to ease deployment, maintenance and support. Most importantly, it does not use any private information in the authentication process.

In response to rapidly increasing identity theft and fraud, regulatory and industry associations such as the FFIEC (Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council) and FDIC (US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) are strongly recommending organizations strengthen access authentication to their internet services. This timely commercial release of Think In!™ comes after two years of academic research, engineering, solution development, testing and a ten-month live trial at The Children’s Foundation in Vancouver, Canada.

Jim McLaughlin, Executive Director of The Children’s Foundation, is convinced of Think In!™’s value. “As a human service organization, confidence in the security of our clinical data is a paramount concern. Your Wetmetrics® system is simple to master and ensures safe data. Think In!™ has given us that level of confidence.”

Rick MacDonald, President and COO of Think Security®, said, “We are pleased that Think In!™ plays a key role in enabling The Children’s Foundation to reduce cost and streamline client service, giving management the confidence to securely deliver client data directly to the point of service through the Internet.”

About Think Security®

Think Security® was established in 2003. Driven by our patent pending Wetmetrics® technology, Think In!™ employs memory, cognition, psychology and statistics to establish a dynamic relationship between the user and the service that evolves with every interaction. The result is an ever changing security profile as unique as the user and as safe as their private thoughts. Think In!™ is classified with biometrics as a two-factor authentication methodology based on “something you are”. Like biometrics, Think In!™ verifies person-presence (the person who is using credentials is actually the person who owns the credentials). However, Think In!™ does this without the high cost of authentication devices, without high false rejection rates and with no risk of exposing private information as part of the verification process.

HCG Diet Direct Aids Dieters in Maintaining Healthy Weight and Diet: Two of the 4 Lifestyle Factors that Can Offer 80% Decrease in Risk of Common and Deadly Diseases

HCG Diet Direct Aids Dieters in Maintaining Healthy Weight and Diet: Two of the 4 Lifestyle Factors that Can Offer 80% Decrease in Risk of Common and Deadly Diseases

Phoenix, AZ (Vocus) August 18, 2009

HCG Diet Direct is in the business of aiding obese and overweight individuals as they work to obtain a healthier weight. The diet is based on the effects of regular use of homeopathic HCG drops, B12, and a daily caloric intake of 500 calories per day. The program has proven successful in changing the lifestyle habits of overweight and obese individuals. After successful completion of the program most are able to maintain a healthy weight and most have developed new, healthy eating habits.

Healthy weight and healthy eating habits are 2 of the 4 lifestyle habits that, together, reduce the risk of common and deadly diseases by 80% according to a report included in the August 10/24 issue of Archives of Internal Medicine (a JAMA/Archives Journal). The other two major lifestyle habits lauded by the report were: never smoking and exercising.

Jenny Boynton of HCG Diet Direct said, “The recent report suggested that healthy lifestyle habits can go a long way in preventing cardiovascular disease, cancer AND diabetes. The issue of weight is more than just visual; it’s either healthy or it’s not. We try to get people to a healthy weight not just so they can be happy and wear a smaller size, but hopefully so they can be healthy and live longer.”

HCG Diet Direct aids individuals as they reach for a healthy weight and learn to maintain it through proper dieting. The program’s weight maintenance success rate is high and past clients offer positive feedback in regards to their new healthy eating habits.
