Tips for weight loss?

Posted on June 8, 2011 by admin| 11 Comments

I want to lose weight, but I would like to do it without joining any certain programs or plans. Of course I would be omitting foods that will be bad and all, and I will be using my AbLounge and Pilates DVDs for exercise. (Pilates helped my friend lose like 75 pounds and shes been thin for years now).

Anyways, I am wondering if those of you who have had success with losing weight can tell me some secrets? Like foods to absolutely avoid and whatnot?

Thanks
I am serious about this, and I dont like little debbies thanks.

Tips for staying asleep.?

Posted on May 6, 2011 by admin| 6 Comments

I sometimes have trouble falling asleep but my real problem is I rarely stay asleep. It isn’t usual for me to wake up every one to two hours.
It isn’t noise or a change in the light that wakes me. I work nights so I’ve a sound screen (white noise generator) and black out curtains. My bed is only a few months old and it, along with all my other bedding, is wonderfully comfortable.
I believe part of the problem is that sometimes my dreams become involved and stressful causing me to wake up. Things like worrying about schedule changes and other “math/scheduling” style problems.
I don’t think I am that stressed but I often have a hard time relaxing in general. Tea, baths, music, and yoga help but I’m open to more suggestion.
Having a cat doesn’t help too much either. When I’m in a light sleep her walking on the bed or moving is enough to wake me.
I’m sure I’m not the only person having problems getting a good night sleep so I’m wondering what worked for other people.

I’ve lost around 2 stone(now 5,4 and 57kgs), am fighting fit..but need more tone all over. Tips please!?

Posted on March 20, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

Hey there
I’m just looking for a good free site or ideas about toning my whole body. I’ve lost a couple stone over the last year and gotten really fit, healthy and very very active. I’m not afraid of really hard work exercise wise!!
I do around 3hours cardio per day a sit’s also part of my job as well as an hour intensive stretching yoga and chi gung/tai chi style stuff, I do sits in varying styles and fit-ball press ups. Ive got a small gap (40mins) in my day before bed time where I can do serious toning/resistance work. I feel a bit untoned in the usual woman areas, tum, bum, upper arms, thighs. Ive searched the web loads and have found bits and pieces but OI want to vary it as much as possible.
Is it best to do upper body one day, lower the next? Or concentrace on certain areas each day? Or is it best to do whole body daily or every other day?
I certainly need to drink more water too, any tips on remembering??Its awful, but I DO forget!
Cheers
