Computer Guru Devotes His Talents To Helping People Lose Weight
Douglas Cromer, president of Superior Computer Solutions, Inc., has devoted the last several months of his life to helping people lose weight with his new website.
When asked why he would devote so much of his time and resources to a cause such as weight loss he said, "It is simple, I am not just overweight, but obese and I understand all too well the pain this causes."He went on to further say, "I have tried to lose weight and keep it off all of my adult life, but I have failed miserably.
I even looked into the different types of weight loss surgeries such as, gastric bypass surgery and lap-band surgery.
After reading about all the complications associated with weight loss surgery and reading about the fatality rate of weight loss surgery, I decided that I had better give conventional weight loss methods another try."The desire to overcome his weight problem compelled Mr. Cromer to begin researching all the different aspects of weight loss such as, diets, diet pills, and weight loss counseling.
As he began to compile all the information on weight loss that he had acquired, he saw the need for a website that would focus more on informing people about these different facets of weight loss, rather than concentrating on making another sale on weight loss products.Driven to make a difference, Mr. Cromer went to work on creating a website that would be of a different breed.
After several months of designing and many long hours of work, Mr. Cromer has recently finished and published the first phase of his site.
You can find his site at http://www.lose-weight-without-surgery.com.What information can you expect to find at diets that are available today such as, The Atkins Diet, The Weight Watchers Diet, The Nutrisystem Diet, The Jenny Craig Diet, The LA Weight Loss Diet, and The Herbal Life Diet.There is also informative Weight Loss News Articles, as well as information about all natural weight loss herbal alternatives.
When interviewed about his site, Mr. Cromer commented, "The most exciting quality about this site is my day-to-day real life story."
He also said, "On this site I will be posting an interactive daily diary.
This diary, I believe, will be a powerful tool in helping others lose weight too.
I have entitled this section of my website as "My Battle With The Bulge".
It is this section of my website that will make it stand out from others like it.
Many weight loss websites have before and after pictures and testimonies, but what you don't see is the story in-between.
What was lacking on every website that I visited while doing my research was what I will call The Essentials of Weight Loss.
I was looking for someone's day-to-day experience.
Life stories of someone's weight loss success are good, but they rarely tell you what it really took for them to reach their weight loss goals."Mr. Cromer concluded, "I am 32 years old, and I am almost 150lbs.
overweight.
I encourage anyone that is considering a new diet, a new weight loss program, or even weight loss surgery to get informed before they make any major decisions.
I have done the research, and I have set in motion the plan that will change my life.
I am making my life an open book to anyone that is obese or overweight and needs help losing weight.
You will not find any hype or lies at "My Battle With The Bulge".
If you are courageous enough, or just plain tired enough, and you want to know what it really takes to lose over 100lbs. safely, then I am waiting to meet you in my interactive weight loss diary.
Join me and we can lose the weight together." If you have the need to lose weight and statements such as this one from The International Bariatric Surgery Registry have you concerned about having weight loss surgery, then http://www.lose-weight-without-surgery.com just might hold the answers you have been looking for.The International Bariatric Surgery Registry estimates one in 1,000 patients will die within four weeks of the surgery and three in 1,000 will die within three months. Some surgeons in the field put the fatality rate as high as one in 100 for those who have the surgery.Whether or not you are considering having weight loss surgery, consider this.
Many weight loss surgeons say weight loss surgery is not a magical cure to being overweight.
They have gone on to say there is a big post surgery effort that will have to be made by have weight loss surgery patients.
If there is not a life style change in the amount of food eaten and the types of food eaten the long-term success of the have weight loss surgery will be impeded.In conclusion, if you need such a lifestyle change, you might want to give conventional weight loss methods another try before you fork out the $25,000.00 - $40,000.00 it will cost you for the surgery.
Especially if you consider the fact that you will have to make a lifestyle change even if you elect to have weight loss surgery.
Bottom line, weight loss surgery is a tool to help you lose weight; however, there are alternatives to weight loss surgery..

Flemington, New Jersey (ContentDesk)

As the weight loss and nutritional expert on The Discovery Channel's Second Opinion with Dr. Oz, Dr. Fuhrman joins Mehmet Oz M.D.
and Oprah to discuss the obesity epidemic, which has been caused in large part by dangerous dieting.Popular diets such as the Atkins diet, the Zone, and the South Beach Diet result in short-term weight loss, emphasizes Dr. Fuhrman, and "the critical question is whether these diets are safe."
He cites the medical journal Angiology, where a study of people on the Atkins diet for one year experienced a decreased blood flow to their heart by 40 percent and increased inflammatory markers.
Ketogenic diets?like the Atkins plan?can also cause cardiomyopathy or dilation of the heart.
Scientific research shows a six-fold increase in certain cancers...

Plus Size Cocktail Dress - Making A Legendary Entrance
So what exactly is a cocktail dress? My mom tells me that a cocktail dress I one that ends around your knees as opposed to being full length.
But does it count if it hits mid calf?
I have always been confused on this.
My mom calls anything around your calf tea length but I think she made this up a long time ago.
Or her mom made it up and she just stuck with it.
I looked up cocktail dresses on the internet and they seem to be in all shapes and sizes, they just aren't full length gowns.
There is a wide array of things available out there.
Cocktail dresses for garden parties, some more appropriate for weddings.
I think the word cocktail dress encompasses a lot.
I even found websites devoted solely to plus size cocktail dresses, or so they claimed.
I was intrigued when I saw these sites claiming to be devoted solely to plus sizes so I investigated.

A Note To Food Manufacturers...
Food manufacturing in the US has always been about convenience, product availability, taste and price. The more society ventured away from the family garden and kitchen, the more food manufacturers developed a market or niche for their products at home in the cupboards. Processed foods no longer are limited to flour and sugar on the country store shelf, but have evolved to include the variety of foods eaten daily and taken from restaurants, grocery stores, super markets and convenience stores.As the commonality of quick processed foods increases throughout the world, health problems such as obesity, diabetes and cancer have also become common and inevitable to the point that *"1 in 3 American adults have Insulin Resistance, a pre-diabetic condition", and this will only be the beginning.The philosophy behind Functional Food is to create food additives and ingredients that will enhance the bodies health by making manufactured foods more beneficial to the consumer with out losing quality...

How Diet Influences Cancer Risk
Diet is a double edged sword. Improper diet increases the risk of cancer but a proper, well balanced diet reduces the cancer risk. Diet is one of the most important lifestyle factors and has been estimated to account for up to 80% of cancers of the large bowel, breast, and prostate. Diet affects the risk of many other cancers, including cancers of the lung, prostate, stomach, esophagus and pancreas.Prostate Cancer: High consumption of meat, especially red meat, substantially increases the risk of prostate cancer. Vegetables, especially cooked tomatoes, reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
In one clinical trial, the role of Vitamin E as a prostate cancer reducing factor was established. In this study there was a 32% decrease in prostate cancer incidence and 41% decrease in prostate cancer mortality in people receiving Vitamin E supplements when compared to controls. Breast Cancer: In Japan, people consume Tofu, a soya product. It contains isoflavones that moderate the estrogen receptors...

Redecue the Risk of Diabetes by Losing Weight
Copyright 2006 Adam Waxler
Is it possible to reduce the risks of diabetes through by losing weight? How about actually reversing the effects of diabetes?
The answers to these questions may surprise you.
In March, 2005, the American Diabetes Association published the results of the comprehensive Diabetes Prevention Program. The Diabetes Prevention Program was conducted at over 25 medical centers nationwide and involved thousands of participants.
The participants volunteered to have their habits monitored while they followed dietary and exercise recommendations. All participants had been diagnosed with 'pre-diabetes', a condition where the blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not yet in diabetic ranges. Untreated, more than half of those people diagnosed with pre-diabetes will develop full-blown type 2 diabetes within a decade.
For the purposes of the study, the participants were divided into two groups.
Both groups...

Bantadiet.com Explains How the Fat Burning Index of Foods and Meals Works For Weight Loss
"As our diet popularity increases, we receive lots of questions concerning the principles it is based upon. Let me give a couple of very simple definitions to clarify the matter," says Tanya Zilberter, PhD. "There's nothing mysterious at all. The fat burning rate is the number of milligrams of fat burnt by 1 kg of body fat in 1 minute. Our Fat Burning Index is just a term; we use it for quantitative description of foods' and meals' potentials to burn or to store fat."The point can be best explained in terms of ketosis, which any low carb dieter is familiar with.
Ketosis is a biochemical condition that occurs when the body produces ketones (ketone bodies) at a higher rate than glucose's release into the blood.Ketone bodies provide energy for the body's needs when there is a total food restriction, carbohydrate restriction, and/or long enough physical effort.In the beginning of ketosis, ketones provide up to 75% of total energy requirement, including energy required by the brain....
