Pool Pet Pee(ve) – WOKR 13

More than a few times every year, usually during the summer, I am the victim of kids having “accidents” in pools. I’m not just talking about peeing. You see, I swim. I swim a lot. It’s a habit I picked up during my days on the Maplewood YMCA

Rapid Weight Loss

Often, losing weight, even on a rapid weight loss program is something we try and fit into our otherwise busy weekly routines although it should really be considered much more important. Following your weight loss diet program to the letter is key to achieving the weight loss you want but many changes are needed, some of which are detailed below. Many factors are involved in how quickly an individual will lose weight; just some of these examples are mentioned in the list below:

• Genetics
• Previous mental trauma
• Current mind frame

Being overweight affects each person in many different ways! Whilst the number of physical and mental effects on an overweight person is great, it is amazing how these can be turned around when a person starts to lose weight. It must be said that most rapid weight loss programs will require some form of emotional support from close friends or relatives; anyone contemplating this type of program needs to start eating a healthy diet as well as taking part in daily physical activity. Exercise should be regular and consistent with at least fifteen minutes per day doing anything that is good for cardiovascular health, like swimming, running, brisk walking and even dancing.

Not all rapid weight loss plans will work with everyone and those that do work will produce different results for everyone that uses them; we are all unique and cannot expect to lose weight at the same rate. In instances like these it is best to substitute a more rigorous exercise program to compensate and learn to listen to your body and adjust your diet plan accordingly. Listen as the body speaks because each and everyone’s body metabolism reacts differently to the various fast weight loss programs so try substituting one program for another to compensate for the body’s reaction.

Exercise programs must be suit each person so if walking is all that can be done, then walk; however, try to improve the pace you walk at as your diet progresses, remembering that you will look better when your fat is converted into muscle. The importance of drinking fresh water regularly cannot be emphasized enough; drink plenty of water on your rapid weight loss program, at least six large glasses per day and don’t forget it also flushes out toxins from the body. Keep away from fried foods especially deep-fried as they contain a great amount of fat and whilst fish and chicken appear leaner than beef, this white meat can contain more fat than when beef is fried.

Wherever possible have your food grilled as almost all of the fat is lost if not all of it so it’s much healthier. Whilst some diets advocate a reduction in carbohydrates, this should be done in consultation with a nutritionist as carbohydrates are the fuel that creates the energy required for your body to function. By sticking to this type of plan you can expect to lose around a pound in weight per day but bear in mind that once you stop, the weight will go back on again.
