Diet Smarter, Not Harder

Signature Tune



Has your belt size been growing like the trade deficit?

"We see it happen all the time," say Dr. Roizen and Dr. Oz.

"We knew there had to be a smarter way to lose inches and gain health."

Believe it or not, your body naturally wants to take you to your optimum weight. So if you've had it with all the typical weight-loss schemes, the doctors have a solution for YOU. It's based on four simple strategies:


* Find a diet buddy -- someone to listen and keep you on track.

* Track your waist -- measure your middle, every day.

* Restock your fridge -- out with the bad, in with the good.

* Walk every day -- 30 minutes, no matter what.

Over 13 weeks, make your body work for you, not against you, with tips on making the four strategies work.

Here's a sneak peek at some of the strategies that can help you lose inches (and pounds) without losing your mind.

* Remember that waist is more important than weight. Belly fat is one of the strongest predictors of health risks associated with obesity. Ditch the scale in favor of the tape measure.

* Stay satisfied. To lose weight, you need to eat.

* Add support. Enlist a friend, family member, or new cyberbuddy as your partner.

* Know that it's OK to make mistakes. As long as you quickly get back on the right road, you won't travel too far down the wrong one.



Just a few quick tips to get you started. I'll follow up with more another day.


Your body will grow younger as the kilos slowly peel away.


Good luck and God speed! Brought to you from Real Age

Sounds simple, Katyzzz - but is it really that easy? I suppose most things sound do-able on paper........I'm definitely starting the 30 minutes walk a day ritual, good for mind as well as body!

wonderful news girls but don't forget to clear out the frig and pantry and restock with better quality food and not too much on the plate, and healthy small snacks eaten slowly when the hunger pangs strike.
