Posted by: | Comments
To lose weight naturally, you don’t need to count calories. Instead, I recommend that you learn about foods that keep you fuller longer and discover foods that you can eat more of while still losing weight. This is my approach that I outline in my book, Alpine Weight Loss Secrets.
But if your goal is to lose the last 5, 10 or even 30 lbs by a certain date, then you need to change your approach and put mathematical science behind your efforts.

First-hand, I see the strategies that work and those that are the biggest mistakes, whether you have to lose 10 lbs, 50 lbs or 100+ lbs.

You often hear that it is very difficult, hard, or undoable to have a strong, happy, vibrant body at any age.
But if you really listen to the person making this statement, you will hear disappointment, lack of commitment and know-it-all statements. As a weight loss coach, I hear something else: I hear that person saying, “How did this happen again?”

Go into any gym and pay attention to the breathing of exercisers. You’ll see people with their mouths open, out of breath and gasping for air.
Let’s step back and analyze proper breathing for exercise.
Activity raises your heart rate and your muscles cells need oxygen, which is exchanged through the lungs. When you increase your activity, it makes sense that you need more oxygen to meet the demands of your working body. And breathing supplies oxygen the needed oxygen.
You have two options to get your oxygen intake. One is through your mouth and the second is through your nose. One would think that there is no difference how oxygen is supplied. Yet there is.

Why does a tomato, eaten in Europe, taste so special that you’re still talking about it a week later? Why doesn’t an American tomato (even an organic one) not compare?
