On our journety to get skinny quick in a healthy way, we want to make sure that we avoid some common dieting mistakes.
If you are not sure what they are, you are about to discover them now!
How to Avoid Six Dieting Mistakes
By Jennifer R. Scott, About.com
Are dieting mistakes keeping you from getting to your goal weight? You're not alone; many of us are guilty of one if not several of these dieting faux pas. Learn why they are a problem ... and how to avoid them!
Mistake: Gulping Down Extra Calories
Do you start each morning with a couple glasses of orange juice? How about a frothy coffee drink on the way to work? Was that you hitting the vending machine for a sports drink at the gym?If this sounds familiar, take note: What you drink can be as important to weight loss as what you eat.
Some beverages provide as many -- if not more -- calories than a full plate of food. Liquid calories don't satisfy you like food does, and many beverages bring no nutrition benefit. Even if you were to drink 1,500 calories of beverages a day, you would still feel hungry and then overeat.
Solution: Cut Liquid Calories
Just say no to the followng: sugar-sweetened sodas and other sweetened canned and bottled drinks; flavored and sweetened coffee beverages, such as frappes, lattes and frozen coffee; sweetened tea (hot or iced); and smoothies.
While juice is healthier than all these choices, whole fruit is preferable to a glass of juice; it has fewer calories and more fiber and is more filling. Water and herbal tea (without adding sugar) are ideal replacements for high-calorie beverages.
Mistake: Depriving Yourself
So you've sworn to lose weight this time around. You rid your pantry of your favorite fattening foods. You sweep the fridge and all bad foods make their way to the trash can. You do okay for a few days. Then, one night, you lose it and eat everything left in the house that isn't a fruit or vegetable.
No matter how resolved we are to lose weight, we crave treats (especially sweet ones) we are accustomed to. You will eventually get the urge to indulge no matter how well those first few days go.
Solution: Giving in ... a Little
Swearing off foods you enjoy is a surefire way to set yourself up for failure. It's like a form of torture: Everyone else can eat the things you love while you can't even taste them. How's that going to help you stick to your diet? It won't. Allow yourself a special treat every now and then. Keep your portion sizes in check and you can still have your favorite foods in moderation.
Mistake: Believing Your Genes are to BlameYou take a look in the mirror and you see your mom. It's not her hair or even her eyes. It's your body. And there's nothing you can do about it. After all, it's hereditary.
The Solution: Get Real!
Genes do play a role in some cases of obesity. Often you will see family members who share the same body type. But for many of us, the most important factor in weight loss is calories in vs. calories out ... how many calories we eat and how much exercise we get. Even if family members are heavy, there are steps you can take so that you do not share their fate. Working out and strength-training will build muscle and give your metabolism a boost, both of which will help you head off the propensity for weight gain your genes might bring.
Mistake: Meal Skipping
It only stands to reason: If the key to losing weight is cutting calories then why not cut a bunch at once by skipping a meal? If you skip meals when you're trying to lose weight, you're doing yourself more harm than good. Meal-skipping can cause your metabolism to nosedive. That will set you up for sluggish calorie-burning all day long and ravenous hunger and overeating at night.
Solution: Don't Be a SkipperMost meal-skippers forgo breakfast. It seems to be the easiest meal to do without. But in reality, breakfast may influence weight loss more than any other meal! If you aren't hungry first thing in the morning, have something small. Do you actually forget to eat in the a.m. hustle and bustle? Set an alarm to go off some time after you normally rise to remind you to stop, take a breath ... and eat.
Mistake: Giving in to a Food-Pusher
You've met her. She pushes doughnuts on unsuspecting office mates. She brings cupcakes for the bookgroup while only tasting the icing herself. She hands you the takeout menu when you've already told her you brought a brown bag. Who is she? She's a pusher! A food pusher, that is.
Solution: Put Yourself FirstWhether office baked goods temptress or the well-meaning Mom who suggests seconds of her best dishes, some people just refuse to take "no" as an answer. They probably don't even realize they are making your weight loss efforts that much harder.
Learn how to say no in a way that works. You may have to distance yourself from the "pusher" for the time being. Sometimes it's better for all parties concerned.
Mistake: Giving Up On Losing Weight Your Way
Sometimes, telling your friends and family you are on a diet can actually backfire. If they don't understand your diet or think they know a better way to lose weight, it can lead to unwelcome input or even arguments. You get to the point that you want to throw in the towel.
Solution: Keep it Under Wraps
Only you know what works for you. So keep doing what works for you. There's no rule that says you have to tell friends or family that you're trying to lose weight. Weight is a personal issue. It's your prerogative to keep it that way.
I liked these suggestion. They are simple things we can do everyday to help us achieve our weightloss goals.
Until next time,

A Healthy Weight-by Jennifer Scott
Weight Loss 101
An important step in your weight loss journey is setting a realistic goal for your end weight and/or BMI (Body Mass Index).
Your Goal Weight
It's just not sensible to start a weight loss plan without first considering an important question: Is the weight I want to achieve realistic for my body? Answering this question truthfully will go a long way in preventing frustration down the road.Hopefully, you have already talked to your doctor about your weight, you should have a healthy weight goal in mind based on what she told you.
If you haven't seen a doctor yet, you can find reliable height and weight charts at your doctor's office or a local hospital wellness center. You can also access some, like the one the USDA provides, online.
Rather than setting a "magic number" as your goal weight, give yourself a range within about five pounds of your healthy weight.
If you have a lot of weight to lose, consider making mini-goals of five or 10 pounds every six weeks to two months rather than focusing on your end weight.
As a rule of thumb, you should weigh yourself once a week as you diet. You should try to weigh yourself at the same time each day to get consistent readings as your weight can vary throughout the day.
Your BMI
Your doctor may also assess your BMI. BMI is the most widely-used form of weight-tracking today. It helps health care providers measure your risk for weight-related health issues.You can find out your own BMI with a simple formula:
Divide your weight in pounds by your height in inches squared. Multiply by 705.
For example, consider a woman who is 5'6" and weighs 190 pounds:
Height of 5'6" = 66 inches
66 squared (66 x 66) = 4,356
190 divided by 4,356 = 0.0436
0.0436 x 705 = 30.75
This individual's BMI would be rounded up to 31.
BMI is categorized as follows:
- Less than 18.5--underweight
- 18.5 to 24.9--normal weight
- 25 to 29.9--overweight (Individuals who fall into the BMI range of 25 to 34.9 begin having some health risk concerns.)
- 30 or more--obese
- 40 or more--morbidly obese
Your Waist-to-Hip Ratio
Last, but not least, your doctor may also mention your waist-to-hip ratio.Waist-to-hip ratio is calculated by taking your waist circumference and dividing it by your hip circumference.
Those who are considered "apple-shaped" (fat accumulates around the belly) are at a much higher risk for heart disease and hypertension than those who tend to carry their weight in the hips or thighs.
Pretty informative stuff!Monique Hawkins

Get Skinny Quick-Keep A Food Diary
Today's get skinny quick tip is a continuation from the previous post. The last post discussed the steps a person should take before getting involved in a weight loss program. After all, it's better to be safe than sorry!
Here is how to do the second step correctly-how to keep a food diary:
Keep a Food Diary by Jennifer Scott
Weight Loss 101
Keep it Real
A food diary is an excellent first step in assessing how you eat. It can also help you understand why you eat the way you do, which is often just as important when it comes to long-term weight management.
The most important factor in keeping an effective food diary is to make it an honest one. A study showed that women in particular tend to fudge when keeping a food record -- coming up short by close to 1,000 calories wasn't unusual.
Why go to the trouble of keeping a food diary if you aren't going to be honest with yourself? Remember, no one has to see it but you, so do yourself a favor and stay truthful.
What to Include
You can see an example of a food diary page here.
Here are some ideas on what you can track with a food diary:
* Fat grams, calories, carbs, protein, fiber, etc.
* Your danger zones
* Your underlying reasons for eating (aside from true hunger)
* Your appetite and/or cravings
* Your portion sizes
* Your feelings after eating
In order to track your fat and/or caloric intake, keep a nutrient guide book handy or use a food database like calorie-count.com.
Using your computer or just an old-fashioned notebook, simply create a column for the name of the food and the required number of columns for each nutrient you will track. Divide the columns into sections according to meal and/or time of day so you can stay organized.
Do You have Portion Distortion?
If you're not ready to keep tally of your fat and calories yet, try just writing down how much you eat over the course of the day. (If you can't figure out where your extra weight is coming from, it may be that you are overeating and don't know it.)
You don't need to buy a scale or pull out measuring cups. Why overcomplicate it when you're just starting out? Use your own measurements (e.g. a salad bowl of popcorn, a fistful of M&Ms, a mug of hot chocolate) for now.
Remember, a rough estimate as you start keeping a record is better than not keeping one at all. (Something as simple as logging how many cans of soda you drink each day may well be an eye-opening experience.)
In a few weeks, when you've become accustomed to writing everything down, you'll be ready to start keeping a more in-depth record.
Get to the Heart of It
If you tend to binge due to stress, or you regularly give in to emotional eating, your food diary can help you cope.
When you catch yourself eating when you're not hungry or giving into a binge, spend some time in reflection so you can figure out why it happened. Then -- as tough as this may be to admit -- write down why you ate (hunger, boredom, etc.) and how you felt afterward (guilty, deserving, etc.). You may find it helpful to record when you tend to overeat so you can plan to arrange other activities in the future that will take your mind off of food.
Here are some examples of questions you may want to answer when you eat for emotional reasons:
* How were you feeling before you ate?
* Did you feel gut hunger?
* Who were you with?
* Did you eat hurriedly or calmly?
* Can you recall everything you ate?
* Did you eat normal portions?
* Were you doing another activity (like watching television) while you were eating?
* How do you feel now (e.g. satisfied, healthy, guilty)?
* Overall, was this a positive or negative eating experience?
You will find writing down and acknowledging these questions and answers will go a long way in helping you understand and prevent emotional eating.
When you see everything you can do with a food diary, there's no reason not to do one! You don't have to wait for a special day or a special meal. Just do it.

Get Your Doctor Involved
Weight Loss 101
By Jennifer R. Scott, About.com
The first step in starting your healthy weight loss journey is to schedule an appointment with your health-care provider. Let the receptionist know you'll need a little extra time to talk to your doctor.
It's Time to Talk
You may feel slightly uncomfortable talking to your doctor about your weight, but try not to worry. Remember, your doctor is there to help you. If your weight is affecting your physical well-being, it's time to leave embarrassment behind and talk honestly with her.Plan to fully address any medical conditions that influence your diet and nutritional requirements or that can limit your ability to exercise.
Get Clear on Contributing Factors
Weight gain does usually come down to calories in versus calories out, but sometimes there are other medically related factors that can cause you to put on extra weight.
Talk to your doctor about are contributing factors to your weight; ask if she think an underlying cause may be to blame. (e.g. Are you taking medications? Have you had your thyroid tested?)
Get Your Questions Ready
You may wish to write down questions before you go and to bring a pen and notebook to take notes as you talk.Here are some ideas for questions:
- Do I need to lose weight?
- What should my weight goal be?
- Are any of my health conditions related to my weight?
- Am I at risk of developing other conditions because of my weight?
- Do any of the prescriptions I currently take contribute to weight gain?
- Is weight loss medication right for me?
- Is weight loss surgery an option for me?
Be Prepared to Answer
Your doctor may have some questions for you, too. For example, she may ask how many meals and snacks you eat each day, how often you eat away from home, and what types of restaurants you visit.You shouldn't be offended or worried if your doctor starts asking you these types of questions. The American Academy of Family Physicians actually recommends that family doctors ask their patients these questions in order to assess their nutritional history.
You may find keeping a food diary is helpful to both you and your doctor. If you're interested in meeting with a nutritionist, ask your doctor if your local hospital offers private consultations or nutrition classes.
If you are thinking about starting a particular diet or weight loss program, bring the details of it to your appointment so your doctor can review it for safety and effectiveness.
Keep Your Eyes on the Prize
Ask if any of your conditions can be improved with weight loss; some health conditions can improve after you lose as little as 10 percent of your weight.Your doctor may ask you to schedule follow-up appointments so she can continue to check your weight and health status. She may also wish for you to have regular lab work if you are currently being treated for any health conditions.
One of the great "fringe benefits" of weight loss is that patients can sometimes discontinue medications as losing weight improves their health (e.g. blood pressure medication); regular check-ins will indicate if this is happening in your situation.
Do not discontinue any medications just because you start to feel better; wait for your doctor's approval.
This was basic information, but very helpful, especially for those people who are looking to get skinny quick for the first time.

Get Skinny Quick-Weight Loss and Vitamins
We all have heard that vitamins are important for our bodies. However, did you know that taking the wrong types can derail your get skinny quick weight loss goals?
If not, here is why!
Do Vitamins Make You Fat?
Everybody knows that vitamins are essential nutritional supplements. It makes the body healthy and disease-free. But there’s one very disturbing fact about vitamins. And it is the fact that certain types of them, more particularly the wrong ones, may cause a person to experience decreased energy and make them fat.
Our body contains toxins that need to be eliminated so that they don’t damage the cells and cause them not to function. This is also the very reason why anti-oxidants are needed by the body, as they have the ability to eliminate free radicals.
In these same instances where vitamins and other essential minerals are required. But the choice of which type of vitamins to take is the biggest question of all. Low quality vitamin supplements may contain ineffective ingredients, which cannot be absorbed by the body. Therefore, its value as a nutritional supplement becomes worthless. Now if the vitamin you are taking is nothing but a pill, then its contents may just add up to the toxins already present in your body rather than eliminating them. And as everybody well knows, toxins are the main components of cellulite.
Pressure packed vitamins aren’t beneficial. The types of vitamins sold in this type of packaging don’t dissolve easily after they are swallowed. Instead, they merely pass through the body as if nothing has happened. Undigested food contributes to the fats found around the tummy.
It is then very important that the multi-vitamins you take pass the strict standards set by the Bureau of Food and Drugs. Some vitamins available on the market are known to leave out the important nutrients placed on the label. And much of that is because they new consumers have no way of finding out otherwise.
There are also certain tests conducted which show that the actual contents of the vitamins don’t match what is specifically indicated. But the more important concern would be whether or not the vitamin is beneficial to the body at all, as there are some brands that actually contain impurities in the form of poisonous lead and harmful bacteria.
To know whether or not a vitamin brand is effective, consult a health professional. Also, try to observe its definite effects on you. If you feel you experience more harm than benefits when taking it, then it may be time to try a different brand altogether.

Healthy for Life: What to Eat in Your 20s, 30s, 40s, and Beyond
.focus())
What should you be eating to prevent disease and keep fat from creeping on? FITNESS tailors a diet for your age.
Nutrition in Your 20s
You're working your first real job, making new friends, dating, getting married, maybe even starting a family. Your life is a whirlwind, which means healthy eating is the first thing to go. To conquer your biggest diet dilemmas:
Make fast food healthy. Researchers at Brown University Medical School found that 20-somethings eat 25 percent more fast-food meals than they did in their teens. Grabbing dinner on the go means you may be missing out on crucial nutrients, says Bonnie Taub-Dix, RD, a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association. Slave over the stove? Nah. Choose healthy convenience foods -- rotisserie chicken, shrimp cocktail, steamed dumplings, salads -- and enjoy them with speedy additions from your kitchen -- whole wheat pasta, instant brown rice, frozen veggies. For guilt-free fast-food choices, see "The Best Food to Eat on the Road."
Drink to your health. Margaritas, mojitos, and cosmos can pack on the pounds faster than you can say cheers. Enter light beer (110 calories in a 12-ounce bottle). It's filling, so you're less likely to want a second, and it takes a good long time to drink.

Get SKinny Quick-Lose The Belly Fat
Today's post is a continuation of the previous one in we learned some great foods to eat in order to lose the belly fat. If we desire to get skinny quick, losing the belly fat is a goal for most!
-Eat more grapefruit. This fruit is packed full of vitamin C. According to the research in Public Health Nutrition, folks who didn't eat much of this fruit were a whopping 131% more likely to have larger waists than those who eat it. Grapefruit can also curb the insulin spikes that can lead to fat storage.
-Eat more walnuts. This nut's omega-3's fatty acid lowers the stress hormones which can contribute to fat storage.

-Eat more grapefruit. This fruit is packed full of vitamin C. According to the research in Public Health Nutrition, folks who didn't eat much of this fruit were a whopping 131% more likely to have larger waists than those who eat it. Grapefruit can also curb the insulin spikes that can lead to fat storage.
-Eat more walnuts. This nut's omega-3's fatty acid lowers the stress hormones which can contribute to fat storage.
So, bottom line, add more grapefruit and walnuts to your diet daily!
