What's Wrong with Losing Weight?
12 Steps to Make It Right
Part 1
by Elizabeth BohorquezNo matter where you look, it appears that everyone seems to have weight issues. There are those who want to lose pounds and others not wanting to gain pounds. It's not uncommon to live one's emotional life in relation to the dial on the bathroom or supermarket scale.
Truth be known, the scale is not the best determining factor of what is going on weight-wise. The scale only reports the total weight, not the lean body mass nor body fat percentage. In addition, there are people who do not appear overweight, but do have an unhealthy body fat percentage and a low-weight lean body mass.
For one reason or another they are not burning fat and more than likely, they are building insulin resistance on their cell borders, leading down the path to the killer diseases.
Keep in mind that here are also individuals who have a dense lean body mass and lower body fat percentage who will weigh more than they appear as muscle weighs more than fat. Athletes often fall into this category.
Here are some keys to attaining a healthy lean body mass, body fat percentage and weight:
1.) First ... You must have a hot desire to not only reach your goal but to attend to it forever!! It needs to be fed each and every day with powerful affirmations, loaded with positive emotion. All negative mind states that present themselves must be diminished as soon as they are noticed. Then, you must re-educate those emotional states, not only with new behaviors, but with hot desire.
2.) Next, it's important to take stock of where you are right now in regard to your lean body mass and body fat percentage. You scale weight is actually a secondary issue at this time.
There are websites that will help you to figure this out and also give you an idea of a healthy body fat percentage for your age and level of health. If you would like to write to me, I will be happy to help you as well.
3.) Once you know your lean body mass, you will need to find out how much protein your body needs in a total day in order to burn fat. Again, check the web or write to me. Depending on your body fat percentage, body weight and exercise levels, you may need even more.
You will also need to know how to divide your required protein throughout your day. Protein is calculated in grams or units. Seven grams equals one protein unit, so if you are measuring tofu or nuts as a protein choice, be sure to estimate your serving.
Don't eat out of the package. Place your serving on a plate. An ounce of meat or poultry, one ounce of cheese and 1.5 ounces of fish constitutes a protein unit. There is usually no need to measure, but one certainly needs to "eyeball" serving sizes.
Do know that when the meals are properly designed, hunger levels will normalize. That means that "I could eat the wallpaper off the wall" hunger levels will be gone forever.
