14-Day Fast Fat Loss Guide

By Craig Ballantyne

I recently stopped by the new house of an ol' college buddy to meet his fiance and new baby boy. He's getting married in 5 months time and we had to have a serious chat.

You see, he's gained 25 pounds since birth of his son. He really fell off the wagon. But he's taken the first and most important step by admitting things have to change and so we sat around for over 2 hours in his backyard on a beautiful day and hammered out this plan.

I could have wrote a 5-month plan, but I wanted to fast-track his results - and YOUR results - because research shows people who start losing fat quickly get better long-term fat loss results as well.

So here's your complete 14-day FAST-TRACK guide to fat loss (if you like it, please forward it to a friend or print them off a copy too):

Day 1 - Stop Everything to Plan, Shop, & Prepare This Meal Plan

I hope you're reading this on Sunday, because I want you to plan, shop, and prepare today. If it's Monday, skip your workout and do this instead - its THAT important.

And I don't just mean planning what you are going to eat for dinner. I mean planning what you are going to eat for every meal for the next 2 weeks.

Don't tell me that's too hard. After all, most people with lean physiques stick to a relatively similar diet for 90% of their meals and then enjoy a random cheat/reward meal 10% of the time.

So your schedule might go like this:

Breakfast - 2 eggs, 1 slice rye toast, 1 apple, Green Tea, fish oil

Snack - 1oz raw almonds, 1 pear, Green Tea

Lunch - Grilled chicken/salmon or black bean salad with spinach, onion, peppers, mushrooms, etc., 1 banana or bowl of cherries, 2 cups unsweetened iced tea with lime or lemon

Snack - Unlimited raw vegetables and hummus

Dinner - Protein and vegetables and fruit...so this could be a small piece of steak, chicken, or fish, along with your favorite vegetables, and a bowl of your favorite fruit.

Or it could be the veggie dinner I had last Monday of quinoa with red pepper-cashew sauce and avocado wrapped in kale leaves.

Or it could be wild rice with beans and avocado and salsa.

That schedule won't change much, with the exception of a slight variation in your main course at dinner, right? And then once per week schedule a meal of your favorite food.

Everyone can stick to this plan for 14 days, and this tip alone will help you lose 5-12 pounds of fat in just 2 weeks. And this is also how you'll need to eat for the rest of your life. It's not hard, it just requires a little practice. Keep at it and never, EVER give up.

Alright, so to review, here's your 3-step guide to Day 1.

i) Plan your meals.
ii) Shop for the food.
iii) Prepare the food (cut everything up, put in the proper trays, cook food if necessary, and get it all packed up for work)

In addition to planning out all of your meals, you must also start keeping a food journal (you could do it online too), because studies show that keeping a food journal will help you lose fat faster.

Next, make sure you do 60 minutes of activity today AND take a "before" photo along with your weight, body fat (if possible), and measurements of your waist, hips, arms, and thighs. Continue to weigh yourself every other day, as research shows that frequent check-ins lead to greater weight loss.

Day 2 - Attend An "Online Fat Loss & Fitness Seminar"

You must set EVERY workout and activity session as an appointment with yourself that you must keep - just like a doctor's visit. Let nothing, except real emergencies, come between you and your workouts.

Today you're going to do a short, burst exercise workout.

Now if you are currently using long, slow, boring cardio to lose f at, stop that bad habit immediately and switch to short, burst workouts.

If you need to learn more about short, burst workouts, go to YouTube and search for interval workouts. While you are there, look up my "Diet vs. Exercise" video series to see why diet is much more effective for fat loss than cardio.

If you are a beginner, please start conservatively. But if you have been working out for a while, the next 3 weeks are your time to step your workouts up a notch.

Day 3 - Write Your Way to Fat Loss

First, you must schedule 60 minutes of easy to moderate activity. I'll talk about that in a second, but you can do anything from a 60 minute walk, a yoga session, a light bodyweight and stretching session, an hour of playing with your kids, or playing an easy game of your favorite sport. Don't go too hard, but stay active.

You must also carve out 30 minutes to sit down and write out 3 short term goals and 3 long term goals. Write down EXACTLY what you want to accomplish in these 14 days. After that, write down what you want to accomplish in the following 90 days.

Once you've done that, you're going to prepare a contract with yourself promising to take the steps necessary to achieve these goals. Sign the contract and review it everyday to keep you on track.

Day 4 - Recruiting Day

Today's another short burst workout. Make sure you are using a professionally designed structured and proven fat loss workout, rather than just "winging it" or using long slow cardio for fat loss.

You'll also spend time today recruiting for these 3 components of your fat loss social support team:

- Nutrition buddy
- Workout partner
- Fat loss forum accountability buddies

Research shows that recording your nutrition in a food journal and having someone review your meals increases your chance of losing fat.

Another study found that if you workout with a partner who is losing fat, then you'll have a greater chance of losing fat as well.

And finally, a third study found that the more often subjects checked in to an online fat loss forum, the more likely they were to lose a lot of fat.

Get your team together and you'll get more results - faster.

Day 5 - The 60 Minute Solution

Why am I telling you to get 60-minutes of activity on your off days?

Well, to be honest, I do NOT expect you to burn massive amounts of fat with easy, off-day activity.

However, every minute you spend moving, you are NOT snacking! I know the biggest problem you will have is your diet. So instead of snacking in front of the computer or TV, spend your free time away from food. That's the simple secret to the 60 minute solution.

So get 60 minutes of activity on Day 5.

Day 6 - The Challenge

Your 3rd workout needs to be a challenge workout so that you can improve your performance each week. In fact, you should set at least one personal best in each workout. If you improve your performance, your physique will improve as well.

Day 7 - Diet Check-In and Reward Meal

Congratulations, you've made it through 7 amazing days of fat burning. Today you're going to double check your nutrition plan by reviewing your food journal.

If you haven't already done so, eliminate all liquid calories and replace with water and Green Tea.

If you need to learn more about nutrition, start using the free service called Fitday.com. It will help you track your calories.

And if you're really struggling to avoid night eating, try this tip. Place a small mirror on your fridge door. Research shows that subjects consumed fewer calories when they did this because it will remind you to make smarter choices.

Finally, as a reward for all of your hard work, you can treat yourself to your favorite meal. But that doesn't mean gorging. It simply means having a normal meal of your favorite foods to give you a mental break from your plan. When the meal is over, don't go back for seconds. Get right back on the 14-day plan instead.

Days 7 & 8 are also 60 minute off-day activity days.

Day 8 - Review your goals.

It's no good to write your goals down and then forget them. Review them at least weekly, if not daily. Heck, carry them around in your pocket and look at them at every meal.

As you workout, visualize yourself reaching your goals. Believe in yourself, keep a positive attitude, stay motivated and you'll continue to make fast fat loss progress every day.

This will also be another great day to plan, shop, and prepare.

Day 9 - Take It to Another Level

Week one was great, but with only 5 days left it is time for you to step it up again. This time I want you to hire a trainer for just one session to make sure you are doing all the exercises correctly and training as hard as you can (safely, of course).

Add this trainer to your support team. And by the way, a good trainer should be able to estimate your body fat better than any of those "fat scales" you can buy at a store...so get them to check that too.

Day 10 - Plan Your Next Shopping Trip

Today is another 60 minutes of off-day activity, and you'll also work on improving your nutrition even more. What I want you to do is focus on eating more from the Fat Loss Foundation.

The 3 components of my Simple Nutrition Fat Loss Foundation are raw fruits, vegetables, and nuts. Research shows that eating more of these 3 foods will help you lose weight better than a diet that is low in fruits, vegetables and nuts.

Make an effort to eat one new fruit, vegetable, and nut each week during your between meal snacks.

If you aren't already eating grapefruit, try one today and see how it helps fill you up (because it contains a lot of soluble fiber called pectin). Add a new vegetable - such as broccoli, cauliflower, or asparagus - to your dinner. And try walnuts or pecans instead of almonds at your morning break.

Slowly but surely increase the fiber in your diet until you hit the recommended amount of 35 grams per day.

And I hope this goes without saying, but you should have eliminated all foods that contain added sugar. That is one the simplest yet most effective nutrition changes you can make.

Day 11 - Recruit Again

Add a new member into your social support team, such as a new workout partner or healthy-eating partner. This will add strength to your commitment. If possible, join a transformation contest online, or start one among your friends or co-workers.

But when you do that, keep in mind that you want to help other people succeed. The more you can help others lose fat, the more you will help yourself as you share what's working with your friends and they show you their fat loss secrets too. Stay positive, and you'll build a powerful fat loss team.

Today is also another fat loss workout day, so give it your best.

Day 12 - Check-In Time

Today you'll re-measure your weight, body fat, and measurements. Take a look in the mirror to compare yourself against your before photo to see big changes that will motivate you to stay strong.

I also want you to start thinking about getting a tan. Yes, I said getting a tan. Why? Because simply adding a little bit of color to your body can make you look leaner. There's a reason all those models in supplement ads are tanned, you know.

Finally, if there is a "big day" at the end of the 14-days, make sure you try on the outfit you are going to wear to double-check that it is going to look great on you.

Make sure you do this check-in either before your 60 minutes of activity or a few hours after so that exercise does not mess-up the numbers.

Day 13 - Mental Performance Review

Write down all obstacles that are still in your way of success, and then brainstorm 2 solutions to overcome each. Get some help from your social support team on this. The more you and your team share solutions, the more fat you - and everyone else - will lose.

For example, you might come up with rules like, "No eating in the car" to help cut down on bad food choices. Someone else might suggest "brush your teeth after dinner to avoid night-time snacking". Those are simple yet powerful tips to keep you on the fast-track to fat loss.

Follow up this positive session with your best TT workout yet!

Day 14 - Review, Plan, & Prepare

Congrats on making so many powerful changes in just 2 short weeks.

By now, you'll probably have lost 5-12 pounds of fat and just as importantly, you'll have developed proven, life-long fat burning habits that will be easy for you to stick to forever.

Keep this weight loss train moving by reviewing your original goals. Next, do your planning, shopping, and preparing for another week, and get ready for even more fat loss.

Enjoy your 14-day results and celebrate with a reward meal (and show off your firmer, leaner body at the big event too!).

Wishing you success!

Please email me with your success story in 14 days (or sooner!).

Xtreme Fat Loss Diet Reviews - Pros and Cons of Joel Marion's Program

By John Davenport

The Xtreme Fat Loss Diet of Joel Marion is been getting a lot of attention lately. Most of it is due to Joel Marion's reputation as a fat burning expert who bases his methods on extensive research and who is known for having helped thousands of men and women to shed weight and fat.

His new program, Extreme Fat Loss, is yet another method by which he believe that men and women can not only lose fat fast, but also improve fitness and muscle tone.

In this article, I want to provide you with the pros and cons of this program. I hope that this will shed additional light about what this program really is and whether or not you should be using it. Naturally, this may not provide an ultimate picture of what this program is and does but I believe it will give you what you need to decide whether you want to try it out.

Here are the pros and cons of Joel Marion's Xtreme Fat Loss program:

Pros:

The program is very diverse, meaning that you won't get bored with it. This makes it easier to stick to the plan for as long as you need to.
 Joel Marion is a well known fitness and nutrition expert who has helped thousands of men and women to burn a lot of body fat and improve their fitness. He has even been called one of America's Top 50 Personal Trainers. He's that good.
 The Extreme Fat Loss Diet is based on extensive research that Joel Marion did, using information and findings from several scientific sources. This is not some theoretical system but a bona fide method.
 The program comes with a money back guarantee, just in case.
 The workout and nutrition combos in this system can help you burn more fat fast without losing muscle mass.

Cons:

The program requires you to workout. In fact, the exercises can be intensive. So, if you're unable to workout due to a physical problem or you're just not willing to exercise, this program is definitely not for you.
 Although you can use this program even if you're not fit at the moment, it may take some getting used to the intensity of these workouts. They may prove challenging at first.
 Does advocate the use of supplements which may add a little to the cost, although this supplement does come in place of the food your normally eat so this added cost is miminal.
 The program does not cover the issue of emotional eating. It's a physical based program and nothing more.

Overall, Joel Marion has created a unique program which can help you shed stubborn fat and maintain or even build lean muscle tissue. I believe that if you need to break through a plateau, lose stubborn fat, or just wish to burn off flab fast, this program is for you.

Why You Are Still Struggling to Lose Weight?

By Patricia Christopher

Want to remove those ugly fats anyone?

The Fat Loss Solution
It is fortunate that people today are aware of the health hazards that are related to obesity. The appearance of a person is the primary reason why overweight people in our society are unhappy with their weight. When people accumulate more food energy than they can burn on a consistent basis, an access of body fat occurs. Obesity itself has many interrelated causes such as:

Overeating:

The obvious explanation for obesity, although is not necessarily accurate, is that overweight people eating over the limit. Miscalculation and reporting often leads to eating more than the individual believes. This in turn also may include that the individual is not quite as active, as they believe themselves to be either. Obese people who keep track of their food intake in attempts to lose weight but fail to do so, often end up in 'denial', denial being that they begin to blame genetic and metabolic factors rather than recognizing and taking full responsibility for their behavior.

Developments of Fat Cell:

The Fat Loss Solution
When energy consumption is in excess and not expended, it is stored in fat cells. The number and the size of the fat cells is what accounts for the amount of fat in a person's body. Fat cells can also increase in number during growth.

When the amount of energy intake exceeds the usage, fat cells can increase in size. Upon reaching their maximum size, these fat cells can also divide and multiply. Obesity occurs when an individual's fat cells increase in size and or number.

Genetics:

Genetics is also an important component in determining a person's body weight and composition. The chances of children being obese are greater if both their parents are obese as well. It is also genetics that may determine the tendency to gain more weight than others. The way energy is used up is also partly due to genetics. Similarities within families are much easier to compare when it's based on sex, age and body composition alone.

Metabolism:

Protein lipase (LPL) is an enzyme that promotes the storage of fat in both muscle and fat cells. People with high LPL activity store fat well, therefore obese people have high LPL activity. A small energy intake will have a greater impact on obese people rather than on lean people.

As for women, an abundant amount of LPL is produced in their breasts, hips and thighs and men produce LPL in the abdomen area. This explains why men readily gain and store obese fat in the middle, while women generally gain weight in the lower areas.

Inactivity:

The Fat Loss Solution
It is not that overeating may necessarily cause some people to be obese but because they are inactive or burn too little energy. In order to maintain proper weight, people must be active physically if they are to eat sufficient food, so that nutrients can be delivered properly without gaining weight unhealthily. Lack of proper exercise is one of the factors that contribute towards obesity because today's technology has made us physically inactive most of the time.

However, inactivity alone may not be the main culprit for the cause of obesity. Fat cell development, genetics, metabolism and overeating are important factors as well. Some of the causes are under individual control. Awareness and a healthy lifestyle are the best things people can adopt to keep their own lives in control.

There are natural products that control your eating habits thus eating less and dramatically reducing calorie intake. Lose body fats quickly. One such proven product is UniqueHoodia(tm) that actually suppresses appetite, consume less calories and lose weight.

Used by nomadic Sans Tribe for generations, the Hoodin Giordonii used in UniqueHoodia(tm) is so powerful, it can reduce your calorie intake by up to 2,000 calories. This allows you to reach your ideal weight faster, whilst also saving money on your food bills. The ingredients contained within Unique Hoodia(tm) has been clinically proven to help suppress your appetite, cut your calorie intake and and reduce your body fat level.

Containing nothing but pure south African Hoodin Giordonii (the only kind which has been proven to work) UniqueHoodia (tm) is unlike other Hoodia product. It contains no fillers, no additives and no lubricants - just a perfect 460mg dosage of pure Hoodia.

This means you can relax knowing you are not swallowing any banned nasty chemicals or undesirable ingredients. It also means everything inside the small pill is working towards you achieving you ideal weight.

Best of luck on your weight loss.

Obesity is Rapidly Reaching an Epidemic Level

By Kevin Sim

The Fat Loss Solution
Obesity has become one of the most dangerous epidemics in the Unites States and elsewhere. It kills more people than smoking, cancer, or violence in the US alone. The number of obese people in the United States and elsewhere is growing exponentially.

No matter where you live, being obese is not easy in this day and time. I know how different your life can be for others. Things which other people take for granted, you have to worry about, from climbing stairs, to taking a shower. It can be difficult for you, because you're different. You're also at risk of developing serious illnesses which will creep up on you as you get older. The good news is you're reading this article today, which means you've taken the first step in doing something about your obesity.

The Fat Loss Solution
You've come to the right place to start doing something about your obesity. This site shows you a tested way to turn your life around. Even if you're not obese, but have reasons to feel that you're heading that way, it is important that you read every word and start doing something about it. You have come to the right place!

It is of utmost important that you take the first step (and you have by reading this site). Otherwise, there is a real chance that, you will find yourself sitting at your doctor's office, trying to interpret the concerned look on your doctor's face as he starts talking to you about serious adjustments to potentially serious illnesses. The bad news continues when the nurse shows up expressing some sort of concern about whether or not you have insurance and whether or not it covers this visit or future treatment. The fact is obesity is a serious matter, and needs to be taken seriously. It places you at a high health risk, and it should be treated as such. It is not a matter of inconvenience anymore it is a matter of health, longevity and quality of life.

The Fat Loss Solution
Before you exhaust yourself trying to find a magical pre-packaged formula that fits all when dealing obesity, let us tell you that there is no one single plan for every body type, or for every gender or age. Every person is different, and so are their needs, goals, and level of performance. So while the goal of obese people might be to lose weight, the treatments and steps necessary are different.

The general outlines of your plan to start your weight loss effort by first educating yourself about everything around you which is directly affecting your life style and the fact that you're obese, or at a risk to become one. Start figuring out what is contributing to your obesity then find yourself a diet plan which is gradual, yet comprehensive enough to cover all aspects of fatloss. There are some really impressive online programs nowadays, which work at your own pace and have worked wonders with those who tried them. Finally, don't forget your fruits. Remember the old saying about the apple? Well, it is still true today, not only about apples, but also about every single piece of fruit you can find.

How to Lose Weight When You Have Failed in the Past

By Duncan McNeill

Nothing succeeds like success! It sounds a silly thing to say, but it is true. Let me tell you a little story to illustrate.

One of the most successful websites of all time is Facebook - I am sure you have heard of it. Did you know that it was started by a student at a university as a way to keep in touch with other students, but it just took off. Forbes now lists the owner of Facebook as the youngest ever self made billionaire at the age of just 19.

The Fat Loss Solutionhttp://weightloss.bestgift-in-webhosting.info

You may well ask, what has this to do with weight loss? Actually, it illustrates the huge potential when thousands or millions of people get together and make friends. It has also inspired the key that will bring successful weight loss to untold millions of people around the World who previously could not manage it. What is that key? How will it work?

Simple. Research has shown that it is almost always lack of challenge and competition that causes would be weight losers to fail. It is a tough battle, and when people find themselves alone, it is just too much and they give up. They may have a spouse or partner who agrees to join in, but they may not have the same level of commitment which also leads to failure.

The Fat Loss Solution

Imagine what would happen if a would-be weight loser could join a group of hundreds or even thousands of people who all had the same problem, and the same goal as you. You could make friends with them and find one or more buddies so you encourage them while they help you. Harvard University have proved that the success rate would increase dramatically. The bigger the group, the better the chance of finding someone with the same goals and aspirations as you.

Think of the advantages: You would be provided with help; encouragement; motivation; guidance; advice; ideas and information. You would be helped to stay accountable and on course; made to feel part of a team; you will have someone to listen when you are discouraged or down; overcome fears; and share the success!

The Fat Loss Solution

It was bound to happen. Someone has at last put together a social networking site based on the theme of weight loss. Here is a place people can come to for help, encouragement, inspiration, ideas, tips, knowledge, motivation, weight loss programs and especially, a buddy.

If you want to know about the American heart association diet plan online or how did mike huckabee lose weight, just stop and think how much better it would all be with a social networking site to help. If you have a weight problem and would like to see success, just go to rel=nofollow www.weight-loss-neighbourhood.com and check it out.
