Weight Loss Hint--The Secret To Avoiding Overeating #2

Reduce the number of TVs in your home, and don't watch TV during
meals, directs Karen Lewis, program director of the Washington,
DC-based TV-Turnoff Network. "If a TV is the focal point of your room,
move it to a less prominent location," she says. Or hide it in an
entertainment center that has a door you can close, cover it with a
beautiful piece of fabric or a quilt, or put a painting on an easel or
a folding screen in front of it. And before you turn it on, check a
program guide to see if there's anything you really want to watch

Weight Loss Hint--The Secret To Avoiding Overeating #1

One of the best ways to avoid overeating and under-exercising is to
turn off the TV, says William Dietz, MD, PhD, of the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention. Studies have shown that the more TV
people watch, the less they move and the more they weigh. And if
Jeopardy or Entertainment Tonight are your nightly dinner companions,
you're probably eating more too. Where your kids watch makes a
difference in their weight too: Research also shows that children with
TVs in their bedrooms are more likely to be overweight.

How many food choices do you make every day?

How many food choices do you make every day? MSNBC reports we make 200 food choices a day! You would think with making that many choices today we would have better odds at making healthier choices. With obesity rates on the rise, it's obvious most Americans are NOT making good choices when it comes to putting things in their mouths.
It's not that we need to stop enjoying what we're eating - it's that we need to enjoy making healthier choices so we enjoy life more! What we eat affects how we feel, how we deal with stress, and how much energy we have.
Changing how we view our food and what is good vs what is good for us is ultra important if we expect to make a lifestyle change that can sustain permanent results. Really our relationship with food is what we need to focus on - why do we crave doughnuts and pastrys instead of carrots or nuts? Is it really that we don't like carrots or nuts, or is it the memories or special occasions when we got doughnuts or pastrys that we REALLY like about them?
I was just on a call with The Clearing Cure, where we worked on changing the emotions so they don't trigger the cravings so frequently.

It is important that you are consistent with your workout. Consistency will help you develop a new habit.

The starting day for this schedule can be any day. Just keep the easy and hard days in the same order. If you are particularly tired during one week, don't increase your workout time. Use the previous week's schedule instead.

You may want to add another activity or two in order to keep things interesting and to cross train your muscles. If you do so, choose one of the easier days (Sunday or Wednesday) for this. One suggested schedule: take Sunday off and cross train on Wednesday. It is wise to wait until you've developed the habit of daily exercise before you change your routine.

You will feel tired and may experience some muscles soreness when you begin. This is normal. Don't let it keep you from walking. However, if you are in pain, stop your work out immediately and make an appointment to see your physician.

Note: If you have any chronic health problems you should get your physician's approval before beginning any fitness program.

Illinois taxes candy & soft drinks

Illinois is increasing tax on many household items like candy, soda, tooth paste, liquor - even shampoo. I've seen articles on KSL where they're suggesting a sugar tax in Utah.
Have you seen reports on the sugar consumption in Utah? Will a tax on sugar help with the obesity rates?

No Thin And Healthy In Your Area?

Wouldn’t it be great to find a program (not a ‘diet’ to follow) that teaches you how to not only lose your weight but shows you how to keep it off so you never need to lose weight again?  Wouldn’t it also be great if you could follow a program in the privacy of your own home? 

Great News! If you don't have a Thin And Healthy in your area, we provide a comprehensive online program that uses the same effective proven, results-producing systems taught in our in-center programs. It's called Total Health Interactive (THI). Now you can lose weight with our system all from the comfort and convenience of your own home with the Thin&Healthy THI online program!

Should sugar be taxed?

Number 1, it stimulates hunger; No. 2, it hurts your liver, and No. 3, it makes your brain want more.

I saw this article on KSL. Its part of a series they've published. It's been interesting see how it flows and the points the editors make.
Is sugar equal to tobacco when it comes to addiction?

Is gastric bypass the only option?

If food is a comfort, is gastric bypass a good option in helping someone lose weight and KEEP IT OFF? Without changing the old habits what will happen?

I've worked with Karen Burton of The Clearing Cure for several months and have had great success after she cleared my addiction to sugar, salt, and even helped with candida.

I am one who craves something sweet - especially after dinner. This is a dangerous habit and one I have had to use will power to stop. By working with the clearing cure, my cravings have stopped and I don't have the "need" for that sweet treat. I've found even cutting out processed foods (most of the one's I liked had PLENTY of added sugars) it's helped keep my sugar cravings under control.

We all have to learn what our triggers are and how to deal with them. It does not mean we have to cut things completely out. I still enjoy treats every so often - but I've learned how to control my cravings and been empowered to overcome them.

Gastric bypass would be temporary solution for me if I never learn to overcome my habits and emotional reactions - both triggers for me to turn to sugary comfort foods. Bypass, for me, would only enable me more and keep me thinking, "oh, just this little bit won't hurt - I don't eat enough for it to make a difference." I know me, and I know my tendencies. The best solution is the clearing solution, eating proper foods so I don't feel like I need to snack (another of my downfalls) and keeping my body active so I'm don't get bored and head for the cupboards.

What are your triggers? Find an easy solution to overcome them. Try the 21 Day Challenge with The Clearing Cure and Thin and Healthy Utah and let us help you take the stress out of getting healthy.

Just feel younger by using it

This is what Kelli from KS says about the results she is getting from the It Works Stretch Mark & Anti Aging lotion. She is getting measurable results, and you can too.

"I have been using this product since August 2008. The results I noticed immediately was the way my hands felt and looked after using it once. My hands looked younger instantly....I also have been putting it on my arm because I have 20-year-old 2nd degree burns scars. My scars are literally disappearing!! They will never be completely gone, but they are fading. I love this product because it is making my skin look younger. I just feel younger since I've been using it, does that sounds silly or what?"

Simple Stretch Marks Treatment

Stretch marks have a very ugly appearance and coupled with cellulite can take a toll on self confidence and self image. Stretch marks may occur from gaining weight, losing weight quickly or even pregnancy. All these situations result in rapid changes to body shape, which in turn affects your skin. Normal glowing skin can turn ugly and very unsightly.
The good news is there are simple treatments for stretch marks and their appearance. For one, if you are not getting proper nutrition, you may be more susceptible to getting stretch marks. Just changing your diet and eating habits in a more healthful way is an easy stretch mark treatment. Part of eating healthy is cutting out caffeine and tea which can make you dehydrated.
Keeping your skin hydrated and looking youthful is the goal It Works Body Slimming and Skin Care products. The Ultimate Applicator helps to tone, tighten, and hydrate skin and the skin care products help rejuvenate skin to give you luxuriously smooth and youthful skin all over. The It Works stretch mark treatments are painless and easy. Just think, in as little as 45 minutes you will be on your way to the smooth supple youthful skin you deserve.

I am a former tub of lard


My Name is Viola Doll and I am a former tub of lard. Before Thin&Healthy I was falling apart. I had asthma and I was unable to walk any distance without my hips back and knees bothering me. I have a family history of diabetes and had gestational diabetes with my youngest son, so I was on track to develop type-2 diabetes. Sex was impossible I felt like I was suffocating, I was embarrassed to ride an airplane because I had to ask for a seat belt extension, Do you know how embarrassing it is to be marched to the front of a small plane because only the extra long seat belt will fit? How about having to ask someone to get things from higher shelves because your belly got in the way? Or go into a store with lots of pretty clothes only to find that your options were limited to maybe two or three selections if they had anything at all? I was miserable.
Then it got worse when I lost my job. I was depressed. So when the opportunity to relocate with my former company was presented to me I jumped at the chance. Little did I know, at the time, how much my life would change from that one seemingly simple decision.
I began my work and the settling in process began... I got to know the staff at my new job and feel more comfortable. Then one day something struck me, the manager was losing weight--a lot of weight in very little time!!! How was she doing it?
She had joined Thin and Healthy and had lost 16 lbs in just a few short weeks. I thought, "Could it work for me?" I decided to go for it. I was on my way to a healthier me. But did I really believe I would get to 150 pounds? That was about 1/2 of the almost 300 pounds I weighed in with? To tell the truth I didn't think it was possible. I had been on several plans before and always lost 25 to 35 pounds, but then became bored and quit after 2 months. Thin and Healthy was different. I wasn't eating skimpy bite size portions, but real amounts of good healthy food.
The weight started rolling off. I resisted exercise at first due to the health problems but after I lost 25 pounds, I bought a stationary bike secondhand and took baby steps on it starting with just a few minutes a day. Then the weight started coming off faster. In about 6 months I had lost 50 pounds. Wow real success without being hungry!!
Coming in to see the staff twice a week was something I looked forward to. The good news the scale held for me helped too. Better yet was my incredible joy at being able to do things. Like walking to sightsee in France, crossing my legs, and my personal favorite, wearing sexy high heels-which I had not been able to do for better than 20 years!!!! It was amazing buying my first sexy formal dress and finding out I had beautiful shoulders. It was great going to a convention with my husband and finding out his friends were flirting with me-Me!! That had NEVER happened to me, not ever!!!! And I rediscovered my relationship with my husband. He has a hard time now keeping up with all my energy and things VASTLY improved behind closed doors (haha).
What made the difference in this plan? I had to EAT! I had to MOVE and I had SUPPORT to do it. I felt valued!! Somebody cared what I was doing. The open door meant there was always a friend to discuss factors with. With the support I have lost just under 150 pounds and over 162 inches. This has helped me get into a size 14 instead of those horrible 30-32.

Reducing Stress To Reduce Belly Fat

Stress is being shown to play a significant role in a wide variety of conditions and disease states. Recent work from the National Institute of Health (NIH) and other major research centers has demonstrated that stress is a significant contributor to immune dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, other age-related disorders, and to excessive body fat.

Over 20% of adults have an obesity-like condition characterized by excessive bell fat. This condition is related to stress-induced hormone imbalances, especially imbalances of cortisol and DHEA. Until now, the only course of action for losing this fat has been stress reduction with exercise and diet.

Relora™ can normalize cortisol and DHEA levels in stressed individuals, induce relaxation, and act as an aid in controlling weight and stress related eating and drinking. Relora stabilizes levels of the stress hormone cortisol. That results in the levels of serotonin and dopamine (neurotransmitters that boost mood) being optimized. Also, levels of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, return to normal. Improved sleep rebalances gastric hormones so that the ratio of leptin (which signals satiety) is once again higher than ghrelin (which signals the body to eat more).

You can pick Relora™ up at our Thin&Healthy Utah location in Sandy, UT or order it by emailing us at: info@thinandhealthyutah.com

Top 6 Causes Of Belly Fat

Ever wonder what the Top 6 Causes of Belly Fat are? You might be surprised to learn what these top belly fat causers are!
  • Stress > work, finances, family, weight
  • Hormones > imbalance or over-production
  • Muscle Tone > lack of abdominal muscle exercise
  • Actual Fat > overall fat cell content of body
  • Water > retaining water in body
  • Genetics > genes inherited from parents
According to government researchers, the link between stress, tension, and excess belly fat is clear. High levels of cortisol – a hormone produced during stress – can cause pound after pound of excess body fat to accumulate around your waist and belly… a health-threatening, figure-destroying condition affecting an estimated 47 million Americans… mostly women.

Check out Thin Members Online , or Thin&Healthy Utah for more information about how to lose belly fat and increase your metabolism.

Stress is being shown to play a significant role in a wide variety of conditions and disease states. Recent work from the National Institute of Health (NIH) and other major research centers has demonstrated that stress is a significant contributor to immune dysfunction, cardiovascular disease, other age-related disorders, and to excessive body fat. Over 20% of adults have an obesity-like condition characterized by excessive abdominal fat. This condition is related to stress-induced hormone imbalances, especially imbalances of cortisol and DHEA. Until now, the only course of action for losing this fat has been stress reduction with exercise and diet. Relora™ can normalize cortisol and DHEA levels in stressed individuals, induce relaxation, and act as an aid in controlling weight and stress related eating and drinking.

In a recent clinical trial of women who took Relora™ three times a day for two weeks, 90% reported that the herbal blend made them feel less anxious, 87% enjoyed more restful sleep and 81% were cured of stress related eating!

So in a nutshell, Relora stabilizes levels of the stress hormone cortisol. That results in the levels of serotonin and dopamine (neurotransmitters that boost mood) being optimized. Also, levels of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep, return to normal. Improved sleep rebalances gastric hormones so that the ratio of leptin (which signals satiety) is once again higher than ghrelin (which signals the body to eat more).

5 Steps To Losing Belly Flab

The 5 Main Components In Losing Belly Fat

It is incredible to see that Thin and Healthy's Total Solution goes along with these 5 basic guidelines in healthy living and weight loss for permanent results.

We've found that it is the motivation that is missing in making a healthy lifestyle and reducing the risks of diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, and all the other diseases that are out there.

Heather Picken outlines 5 very simple and basic steps to help you lose that belly flab!!

First: You need to look at your nutrition. The main to look at is calories. Too little, too much they are the same. You need the right deficit to lose belly fat

Second: You need to get fish oils (6 grams) a day. These will help you lose fat. You need to focus on fat loss, not weight loss for permanent results. Keep adjusting your metabolism. You do this mainly through nutrition.

Thirdly: Your training program. Weight training and cardio. The right way to do cardio to lose belly fat is interval and HIIT (high intensity interval training). Heavy sets one week (6-8) reps followed by higher reps the next week (10-15). You need to vary your program. The key to getting rid of belly fat is INTENSITY (if you're not sweating and breathing heavy you need to push yourself harder).

Forth: Tracking your progress. Take your body fat every 2 weeks (measurements, pictures, and try on a pair of pants that is too small). Things can fluctuate, all of these things will give you a more accurate picture. Belly fat is not a linear process. Your body will plateau, so you need to tweak it.

Lastly: Most important is conditioning your mind to stay motivated. Everything you do is a mental process that goes along with losing belly fat too. Adapt a healthy lifestyle. Make the decision to be committed not just interested. Article source: http://ezinearticles.com/

How To Avoid Packing On Belly Fat

You can’t down 3,000 calories a day and expect to lose your belly, but calories aren’t the entire story. Certain foods seem to pack on Belly Fat.

Last fall, experts from the ongoing Framingham Nutrition Studies reported that women who ate almost 400 fewer daily calories but chose the least nutritious foods had a 2 1/2 times higher risk of abdominal obesity than those who ate 400 more daily calories but made better choices. They also had dramatically higher risk of such serious health issues as Type 2 diabetes and heart attacks, says Barbara Millen, DPH, the study’s director of nutritional research. You don’t have to “diet”: Just fold these strategies into your life and watch the belly flab pare down.

Eat Fruits and Veggies

-Especially orange ones. Women trimmed their waists by replacing refined grains like white bread and simple or added sugar with carbs from fruits and vegetables, according to the latest review from Copenhagen University Hospital.

Besides packing in fiber, which keeps you feeling full longer, researchers suspect it’s the rich antioxidants, such as vitamin C and beta-carotene, that ward off belly fat. Carrots, cantaloupe, squash, and peaches are great sources of beta-carotene, while oranges, berries, and kiwi provide a good dose of C. To keep calories down, pick veggies like bell peppers before fruits, and choose fruits over juice.

Get more selenium

This cancer-fighting mineral is also linked to lower rates of belly flab, according to a survey of more than 8,000 Americans. People with low blood levels of selenium and other antioxidants had bigger waistlines than those with higher levels.

Selenium is found in many foods, but it can be hard to know if you’re getting the recommended 55 mcg a day because amounts vary based on the soil in which food is grown and the feed livestock consume. To meet your requirement, try a supplement or eat a varied diet. Also, opt for foods grown in different areas: such as grains from the Midwest, Vermont cheeses, and nuts from California.

Add some protein

Eating more protein keeps you full and boosts energy, which leads to overall weight loss and–for those over 40 –reduced belly fat in particular, according to findings from Skidmore College and Copenhagen University Hospital.

But studies show that eating high amounts of protein may stress the kidneys as they work to eliminate the excess, which can also cause calcium loss. Aim to get 25% of your calories from protein (if you eat 2,000 calories a day, that’s 500 from protein). Just make lean choices such as low-fat yogurt, fat-free milk, fish, and poultry. Nuts are another great source but can be high in calories, so have just five 1-ounce servings a week (an ounce is about 24 almonds, 18 cashews, or 35 peanuts). Thin&Healthy’s protein supplements are a great way to get 15 grams of extra protein without a ton of calories. Check them out in our online store or your local Thin&Healthy weight loss center.

Eat the right fats

Research from Spain shows it’s easier to stay slim eating monounsaturated fats (such as olive oil) and omega-3s (found mostly in fish but also in flaxseed and walnut oils and tofu), while omega-6 fats (prevalent in cereals, corn oil, baked goods, and eggs) caused belly flab to pile on.

Fats that should be eliminated completely: trans fats, which have no nutritional value and are mostly found in calorie-dense baked goods and chips. In a Wake Forest University study, monkeys eating a typical American diet for 6 years gained the human equivalent of 10 pounds more when the fat they ate was all trans fat, compared with those eating monounsaturated fat. Worse, “30% more fat was added in the abdominal region, and they had early signs of diabetes,” says researcher Kylie Kavanagh, DVM

Are You Allergic to Money?

Financial stress can be a terrible monster and wreak havoc in our lives and put weight loss at a stand still! At Thin and Healthy Utah you better believe we've seen first hand the effects of financial stress in losing weight.

The Clearing Cure's Karen Burton explains in her article Help! I'm Allergic to Money how looking at money in the improper light will keep us from being able to acquire it - and our limiting beliefs will "create what is called a "set point" with regard to our wealth. We determine in our subconscious what amount we can make and feel comfortable doing it, all while bringing up the emotions that you aren't good enough to have a lot of money, or you're an evil person and will be judged as such. That amount we create in our minds is the amount we usually are making at this point in your life, and usually it is either not enough, or you can't seem to keep it in your hands and you go through it very fast, as you don't deserve this so you need to get rid of it before anyone notices."

"Money is naturally full of germs. It just passes through too many hands to not pick up something that your body would like to reject." As Karen points out, and "First of all, we need to clear the allergy that your body carries to money." I'm not allergic to very many things, BUT money is one that I DO NOT want to stay allergic to. By clearing the allergy, we can move forward to bringing our energy in sync with what we want.

"The next step would be the reversal." - or bring our subconscious in sync with our conscious will....some of us know this as will power. Will power to control our spending of money, use of money, and need for money. Everything needs to be in balance. This is an important concept to master, and one that Thin And Healthy Utah helps develop through the Life Success component.

By overcoming this HUGE stressor in our life and getting our finances under control, we have more freedom to focus on our health, without being run around by our finances. Karen's systematic approach to emotional freedom is amazing. I've experienced how wonderful the freedom can feel through The Clearing Cure. It is an empowering tool that really works. Read more of the article to see how The Clearing Cure can help you! Karen is hosting a Teleconference on "MONEY  BELIEF CLEARING" September 9th, 2009 - to see The Clearing Cure work in your life - join us on the call.

You Can Lose that Belly Fat!

You can lose that belly!!

First you need to know what causes belly fat. How you eat is just as important as where you eat when it comes to weight gain. Larry Scherwitz and Deborah Kesten have identified seven specific eating patterns that make us overeat and that are linked to being overweight. This was reported from ABC'S “Good Morning America.” At Thin and Healthy Utah, we subscribe to these 7 steps for loosing that unwanted belly fat also.

The message is simple: Look at what your eating, and look at your relationship with food. Here are 7 examples to help you out. Each of these seven patterns of eating will negatively affect your relationship with food. Do you see yourself in any of these 7 categories?

1: Fresh Food, Fast Food – If you find yourself eating at McDonald's for lunch and then heating up packaged frozen foods at night, you're eating too much processed, high-calorie food. Where's the fresh food?

2: Food Fretting – Are you so concerned about what you eat that you experience negative and guilty feelings when you think about food?

3: Task Snacking – You're too busy to sit down and eat right. So you grab things to eat at your desk or in the car. If you're distracted when you eat and you're dining at the dashboard, chances are you'll eat more and gain weight.

4: Eating Atmosphere – Where you eat is as important as what you eat. When you dine in a calm setting, you're less likely to struggle with how much you eat.

5: Social Fare – People who eat alone tend to overeat. When we enjoy meals with others, we're far more likely to slow down and eat less.

6: Emotional Eating – Are you using food to manage your feelings?

7: Sensory/Spiritual Nourishment – People who eat this way are infusing their food with special meaning.

The study findings were published in Explore, a journal of science and healing.

Is your weight loss metabolism working properly?

Tired of trying diet after diet and not getting permanent weight loss results? It can be very difficult to lose those extra pounds of body fat – especially if your weight loss metabolism doesn't seem to be working. Weight loss DOESN’T HAVE TO BE difficult if you go about it the right way!

One for the best things you can do is get your metabolism checked so you know what your body fat percentage is and how many calories your body burns each day. There are a number of calculators and methods to show you how to calculate your body fat percentage and metabolic rate available. If you’d like help, make sure you contact us at Thin & Healthy’s Total Solution and we can help you calculate your body fat. We’ll even calculate your lean weight and metabolic rate. Having a healthy body fat percentage is one key indicator in keeping weight off. The higher your body fat percentage is the harder it is to lose weight and more impossible it is to keep the weight off once you’ve lost it.

3 Factors to Boost Your Metabolism

When it comes to increasing your metabolism for weight loss there are many theories out there - and maybe you've tried a few of them in the past. While it's true our metabolism is the key to weight loss, sometimes what we think is helping us lose weight and speed our metabolism up is in reality just slowing our metabolism down.

In simple terms our metabolism is how efficiently our body breaks down the foods and fuels we put inside it. The foods we eat and the way we move both have an effect on how our body is able to use the foods we eat.

Just eating less isn't going to help speed up your metabolism, in fact, in most cases is just slowing it down even more. Changing up your routines is going to help as well. And being consistent is a much a part of losing weight and speeding up your metabolism as anything.

3 factors to increasing our metabolism are:

1. What we eat

2. Amount of Activity

3. Amount of Lean Muscle

If you're interested in leaning how to speed your metabolism up you need to first start with identifying what is going to keep you from achieving success and how you are going to stay consistent. Having a plan, even loosely identified, will ensure you not just get to your goal, but that you can maintain it.

Anyone can follow a program for 30-90 days - but can you make lifestyle changes that will help you maintain the results once you get there? The best weight loss program is one you can stick with for the rest of your life. That should be the real goal. If you turn to pills, caffeine, green tea, cutting out food, working out hard in the gym - are you prepared to do that for the rest of your life, to buy the products or keep the intensity? The best weight loss pill is in changing your lifestyle to support you keeping your weight off naturally and fit in with the way you want to live.

At Thin And Healthy, we coach our members through finding things they like to do - with several options so they will do them for the rest of their lives. We help show them how to find alternatives and plan ahead to keep from losing focus - so when they get to their goals, they have the tools to stay there for the rest of their lives.

If you would like to build your success on our proven three-part system, go to www.thinandhealthyutah.com. You can look into our online program our elect for one-on-one coaching from our expert staff.

Lose Body Fat And Stop Metabolism Slow Down

Tired of trying diet after diet and not getting permanent weight loss results? It can be very difficult to lose those extra pounds of body fat - especially if your weight loss metabolism (as I fondly refer to it) has slowed down. Weight loss DOESN'T HAVE TO BE difficult if you go about it the right way!

One of the best things you can do is get your metabolism checked so you know what your body fat percentage is and how many calories your body burns each day. There are a number of calculators and methods to show you how to calculate your body fat percentage and metabolic rate available. If you'd like help, make sure you contact us at Thin & Healthy's Total Solution and we can help you calculate your body fat. We'll even calculate your lean weight and metabolic rate. Having a healthy body fat percentage is one key indicator in keeping weight off. The higher your body fat percentage is the harder it is to lose weight and more imposible it is to keep the weight off once you've lost it.

We recommend the average body fat for a man to be from 13-18 percent and women to be between 18-25 percent. The average body fat we see is up around 30 percent, which is exteremly high. Tracking the body fat percentage is as important as watching weight fall off on the scale. If the body fat percentage doesn't change as you're losing weight, you can expect any lost weight to come back on quickly.

It's not that body fat is the most important value in the weigh loss equation - but body fat is one value used to calculate the rate your body burns calories. The lower your body fat percentage is, the highter your lean weight is - and lean weight is what burns calories. To achieve permanent weight loss results, your body needs to burn calories efficiently - and that means turbo charching your metabolism.

Another great resource for knowing how to burn fat and know what calorie buring zone you are in, is in a graduated cardio test. This test will show you how to get your fat burning program and metabolism back on track. As you lose weight, speed up your metabolism, and burn body fat, your fat burning zones will change, so simply performing a graduated cardio test semi-regularly (quarterly or semi-annually) will help keep you on track to changing flab to fab.



Losing weight doesn't have to be difficult - you just need to do it the right way. Diet after diet is NOT the right answer - look around you - the typical American has been on 10-20 different diets in the last 3-5 years! Are many of them keeping their weight off? The answer is an astounding - NO!

We'll show you the secrets to losing weight, and give you a program that will help you KEEP YOUR WEIGHT OFF. We'll work with you to super charge your metabolism, burn calories while you sleep, and help you eat your favorite foods to boot! When you're serious about changing your body fat percentage, want to know how to calculate your body fat percentage, or find out how efficient your metabolism is - let us know, we can help.

Belly Flab

Do you have Belly Flab and want to get rid of it? Having a flabby belly can be an irritating and confidence draining occurrence that is not always easy to eliminate. There are hundreds of sites out there claiming to have the cure for toning and tightening the tummy....but losing the muffin top or beer belly fat should be something you consider carefully and one you can put a plan together so you can get permanent results. The "battle of the bulge" as many people have termed it has been a battle many people in America are losing these days.
First: Where did the belly flab come from - having a baby, drinking beer, stress eating, having your life out of balance, divorce, improper nutrition, not enough exercise? There are a number of reasons where the belly flab will come from - and owning up to what put yours there is the first step. Belly flab for girls and belly flab for men and women can be quite different and come from different sources and reasons.
Second: Identify what the road blocks are to getting rid of the flab around your belly. What is stopping you from getting it off right now - no time, don't know how to do it, tried to lose flab in the past only to gain more, you believe it costs more to eat healthy....there can be a number of road blocks.
Third: Decide why you want to change. If you don't get rid of this belly flab, is it OK. If it's not OK, why do you need to change it. Not knowing why you want to change will stop you dead in your tracks and impede your progress.
Once you've identified where the belly flab came from, what's stopping you from getting rid of the belly fat, and why you want to change, you need to put a plan in place to get rid of the belly fat.
In the case of a beer belly - are you willing to cut back (or out) the drinking? You know that's where the belly flab came from - are you willing to change your lifestyle to keep the fat off for good? If you have a muffin top from having a baby and haven't been able to get back to your pre-baby shape because you can't make it to the gym like you did before, are you willing to do something else where you don't have to go to the gym like a work-out video at home, taking the baby for a walk in the stroller, or even joining a weight loss facility to provide some accountability and provide some education on how to lose the belly flab for good.
There is no reason to get so frustrated with losing weight, belly flab, beer belly fat, or having a slow metabolism that you give up and resign yourself to a flabby body that keeps you feeling unhappy!
One of the biggest components in permanent results has got to be changing your mindset. Think about it, how do you feel about your belly flab right now? If you were to look at yourself in the mirror - what are 3 feeling words you would use to describe how you feel? How long have you been feeling those feelings? Feelings that are limiting or negative will keep you right where you're at - you've got to change how you feel about yourself and focus on how you will feel once that belly flab is gone!
The Clearing Cure and Thin&Healthy's Total Solution both help provide the structure, guidance, systems, and empowerment to help you achieve the success that you are looking for. Countless others have found this information before you. Some have looked into our programs and found the education and empowerment they needed to make a permanent change - while others move on without looking or calling to find out if they are a fit for what we do. They continue their search for a magic pill they hope will take away their belly flab and only find more frustration trying more solutions that don't work and only suck their finances dry. You decide where you are in your quest for a permanent solution. When you're ready to at least review some information, follow the links below.

July 27th, at 6:30 p.m. MST and July 30th at noon.

- Maintaining Focus.

Lack of focus is the number one culprit that destroys our motivation! In this class we will learn how to reverse your energy so that you are focusing in on your potential. Bring to class all your reasons why you can't seem to maintain your focus and we will crush each one by using psychological acupressure techniques. The object is to empower you with a tool to clear the path of all the reasons you lose focus, and then re-train you on how to keep that focus and gain a high degree of motivation with it.

Register Me Now!

August 3rd, at 6:30 p.m. MST and August 6th at noon

- Building Beliefs.

Our belief about who we are and what we are capable of determines everything. It is the most powerful motivation assassinator, and is responsible for what keeps us stuck in the ruts of our lives. These beliefs include the fear of failing, not being good enough, being too fat, too skinny, or simply not having a vision of where you want to go. In this class, we will use psychological acupressure to assassinate all self-limiting beliefs one by one and retrain your brain on how to CREATE who you want to be. We will create a vision of where you want to be and learn how to imprint that in your mind, sending out positive thoughts that literally draw those things to you. Visualize who you can be, and we will help make that a reality.

Register Me Now!

August 10th, at 6:30 p.m. MST and August 13 at noon

- Overcoming Negative Habits.

Discover how to conquer negative habits. Habits are actually day to day choices we make that become second nature. In this class, we will walk through a process to help you realize what choices you are making that are creating bad habits. These bad habits are things you have created to sabotage your dreams and give you an excuse as to why you can't change. We will use psychological acupressure to tap out the resistance to changing, and retrain the brain to exchange those habits for positive ones, one step at a time.

Register Me Now!

August 17th at 6:30 p.m. MST and August 20th at noon

- Conquer Emotional Reactions.

Are your emotional reactions controlling your life? Stress, frustration, depression, and anger are all emotional reactions that can rule your life and destroy your motivation. In this class, we learn about what stress, frustration, and depression do to our bodies and our minds. We will learn how to deal with the stress responses like the high heart rate, high blood pressure, shutting down of your metabolism, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, high coritsol, leptin, and insulin levels, and the impacts on your brain chemistry, immune function, and hormonal balance. We will give you tools to overcome depression and anger and tap out the things that happen every day, creating in you the empowerment to gain back control of your life. Come prepared to learn a step-by-step process for turning those emotional reactions into the personal growth.

Register Me Now!

August 24th at 6:30 p.m. MST and August 27th at noon

-Building Positive Surroundings and Finding More time.

People you surround yourself with, as well as your environment are crucial in maintaining a positive lifestyle. In this class, we learn about the Fist Factor and how to maintain good positive relationships, and then use those relationships to create more positive reinforcement. What people say and do has an impact on us, but we can choose to let this bring us down, or build us up. Release the negative energy and build positive energy. Tap out hurtful things people say, negative self talk, self destructive thoughts, and take back that power that we give away to others We will also use psychological acupressure to tackle your procrastination center of the brain and clear it up, allowing it to communicate with the rest of the body.

See what Trainer Tom has to say about how important this Cardio Test is for weight loss: http://thinandhealthyutah.com/cardiotest.html

Drinking Water Forces Fat To Be Used As Fuel

Drinking water forces fat to be used as fuel, making it one of the main keys to success in shedding any extra pounds. And, without adequate water, kidneys are unable to function properly - prompting the liver to pick up the slack. This causes additional problems for dieters because the liver cannot properly metabolize stored fat as energy, resulting in more fat being stored in the body.

Furthermore, water effectively suppresses the appetite, aids in proper digestion, and acts as one of the vehicles for circulating nutrients and oxygen through the body, as well as assisting the body in eliminating waste. Water lubricates joints, protects organs, helps maintain a normal body temperature, and is absolutely necessary for exercise, and even day-to-day performance. With this in mind, it's easy to understand why drinking enough water - a minimum of TEN, 8-ounce glasses a day, every day - is perhaps the single most important step in determining diet and fitness success.

Of course a balance approach is always best. Being able to fit life in to a program or routine is a must if permanent results is expected. Thin & Healthy teaches and promotes that healthy lifestyle in all aspects of our programs.

6 Steps to a Slimmer Summer Body

Weight control usually involves finding the right balance between calories in and calories out. But research also suggests the way your body burns energy may be just as important.

The Moses Taylor Hospital in Pennsylvania offers these tips for accelerating your metabolism and get your body ready for summer!

1. Don't starve yourself -- it causes your resting metabolic rate to drop. Eat your balanced THI meals and use your healthy snack options to keep your metabolism burning all day long!

2. Exercise longer. Only after 30 minutes of intense exercise does your body begin to burn stored fat for energy. During your workout today, add 1-2 minutes, and tomorrow add another minute!

3. Choose high-energy exercise, such as walking, biking, cross country skiing, swimming or step aerobics. Take a class or get a trainer to push you to the next level of calorie burning!

4. Vary your workout. Try changing your routine every six weeks. Not only will you not get bored from your routine, your body will not hit plateaus and you will continue slimming!

5. Eat a good breakfast. By good, we mean balanced with your protein, carbs and other options found in our THI meal plans.

6. Avoid alcohol and smoking. Both inhibit the burning of abdominal fat. Those refreshing drinks are tempting this summer but remember how great it will taste when your abs are smooth and slim because you stayed focused on your goal! Remember, everything is great moderation!

Can this really be better than Chocolate?

I have found something that is the best thing since CHOCOLATE! And that may be an understatement!

I would like to introduce a new product called, It Works! Body Wraps They are fabric wraps that have special herbs that go in and actually dissolve away body fat! You put it on, wrap it in place, and leave it on for 45 minutes (or all night). It rids your body of toxins, so drinking ample amounts of water is essential. This allows you to lose inches on the first application and you continue to lose over the next three days. This lasts anywhere from 2-6 months, which is ample enough time, with the right incentive, to make it permanent with learning to eat right, and exercise. This is a GREAT way to tone up your skin after losing that weight, as well. It takes that extra skin and tones it up, and reduces it with each application. Kerrie, Marie, and Karen all had noticeable differences from their very first application.

I look at this as the ultimate in motivational techniques! Use it while going though one of our programs and you will see noticeable results along the way while retraining your mind and body to eat right and to enjoy exercise. Karen is introducing new motivational techniques and eating pattern retraining using acupressure that will help you gain that motivation and control.

I am so excited about these that I am partnering up with The Clearing Cure's, Karen Burton, to bring these to you in a party to let you try them out for yourself at a substantially reduced price. In addition, Karen is offering to teach some facial lymph massage with essential oils, lymph acupressure points, and clearing all the emotional clogs that are clogging up your lymph system, circulatory system, and any swelling or edema. This is a $75.00 value, as it is an hour of clearing that you will get ABSOLUTELY FREE, with this party. Getting your lymph system and circulatory system working properly in weight loss is critical.

It is critical that we get an RSVP for us to hold you a spot. The spots are going fast, as this is being advertised all over the valley. There will be two locations in which the parties are being held to accommodate everyone, as well as one party during the day to accommodate mothers who are home. However, this is not limited to just women! Men benefit from this just as much!

We hope to see you soon!
