Overweight and Unhappy?» lose tummy fat

My Fit Yummy Mummy progress

Michelle Green — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 22:39:26 +0000

I’m nearing the end of week 5 and I have to say that things are very different now compared to what they were like 5 weeks ago before I started the Fit Yummy Mummy program!

I have so much more energy for starters – no longer is it an effort go get up at 5am! Who would’ve thought?

I am definitely fitter and what used to tire me out no longer does. Even squats are enjoyable! Not only are they enjoyable, but they no longer hurt nearly as much as they used to, and I am so much better at them!

At the gym I am lifting heavier weights when I do the dumbell bench press. I used to lift 5kg and now I’m up to 6kg. I didn’t think much of it until my husband said “That’s a 20% increase in strength!”. Impressive huh?

As for my size, well I definitely weigh less, although that does fluctuate on a daily basis, so I try to avoid the scales where possible.

My body also looks more defined than it did, and one bad thing has happened – my boobs are shrinking!!! ARGH!!!

Ok, that’s not the end of the world (that’s what push-up bras are for), and personally I’d rather feel fantastic than have nice boobs, so unfortunately the boobs will just have to take second place!

Looking at the positives, it means I am definitely losing fat from my body! Woo hooo!

Check out the Fit Yummy Mummy program at http://overweightandunhappy.com/fym.html. This program is by far the best I have EVER seen, and I recommend it to any woman who wants to lose weight.

Metabolic Rate Calculator

I often come across people wanting to know how many calories they should be consuming each day, and I previously posted the formula which I am sure was very helpful to many people.

But wouldn’t it be better to have a calculator that does the math for me? Of course it would!

If you sign up for the free newsletter at http://overweightandunhappy.com/flatabs.html, you will get a free fat loss report, a free exercise game and of course a free metabolic rate counter. You just type your weight, your height, your age and your activity level and voila! You have the calorie range you need to consume to maintain, gain or lose weight!

The calculator has a section for both men and women, because of course we are somewhat different!

So go to http://overweightandunhappy.com/flatabs.html now to get your free basal metabolic rate counter!

How to lose tummy fat

Michelle Green — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 22:29:27 +0000

Do you have a horrible, wobbly tummy? Do you feel self conscious about your tummy?

How would it make you feel if you were told that you can start to lose tummy fat starting today? What if you were told that it wasn’t hard hard to lose your tummy fat either?

Imagine how you will feel next summer while you parade around in your bikini with no tummy fat to be seen! You will be able to wear whatever you want, you will finally feel comfortable in your own skin and you will look fabulous!

I’ve been researching weight loss programs for a while now and I have finally found two great programs that not only help you to lose belly fat, but they will help you to lose weight all over. You will look toned and fit and you will feel great! I am four weeks into one of them and I feel fantastic! Not only that but I’ve lost over 4 pounds!

Both programs work on the same principles:

1. You must eat regularly to keep your metabolism up. Breakfast is a MUST!

2. You need to include protein, fruits, vegetables and complex carbs in your diet.

3. Exercising no longer involves hours at the gym, several times a week! In fact, you should only be exercising for 15-30 minutes at a time, max!

4. You should start seeing results pretty quickly (if you stick to the program).

5. “Bad” food is allowed on occasion (yay!).

For us women who really suck at staying motivated, online support is available via a weight loss “club”.

For those taking a look at the Fit Yummy Mummy program, yes it is aimed at women who have had a baby, however there are plenty of happy non-mothers who are extremely happy with the program, so please don’t let this deter you.

The second program (called The Truth About Abs) is more aimed at men, however it is suitable for women too. As I said, the two programs are almost identicle, and the main difference is in some of the information and wording. There are a few other small differences, but they do rely on the same principles.

I have watched many women try and fail to lose weight so many times over many years, and I have worked with women with self confidence problems which is compounded by their weight.

The problem with many women is that life kind of “gets in the way” with work and family etc when it comes to losing weight, but I believe that women really need to know that by not looking after themselves, they’re letting everyone else down.

So if you’re struggling with your weight or you want to lose tummy fat, then check out the Fit Yummy Mummy or the Truth About Abs program today, because these are by far the most sensible and inexpensive programs I have seen.

More Exercises To Lose Weight

We’re always looking for new and better ways to lose weight, right? If you’re anything like me, you probably want exercise to be fun and exciting and not boring and horrible.

I’ve talked about the weight loss exercise game once before, but I wanted to mention it again, because it is a great little game, and so effective for anyone who wants to lose weight! Not only will you be kickstarting your metabolism, but you’ll be having fun too!

If you sign up for the free Fat Loss Report offered by the Truth About Abs weight loss program, you will get a couple of free downloads including the exercise game and a basal metabolic rate calculator. Both are essential to help you lose weight! The Fat Loss Report alone is worth a read for anyone who has tried everything.

So if you’re after a new and fun way to lose weight, check out the Truth About Abs program, download your free report and of course the free exercise game!

Week 5 of the Fit Yummy Mummy Program

Michelle Green — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 12:12:08 +0000

Wow! I’m in week 5 already! It is so hard to believe! I feel great, I have lost some weight and I am starting to look different.

Today I was really looking forward to my resistance training because it meant that I was going to start another 4 weeks of new exercises and they were great!

I particularly loved the exercises that used my arms. My arms have always been really skinny and shapeless. But now, after completing only 4 weeks, the “bat wings” that were beginning to form are almost gone, and they are starting to get a really nice shape. I am absolutely thrilled!!!

The food situation is still going great. In fact, I feel like I’ve not really had to change much at all (probably because I haven’t!). The only difference now is that I am making a conscious effort to eat every 3 hours or so. The actual food that I eat isn’t much different, although smoothies and breakfast burritos (YUM) have taken a regular place in my diet routine.

I still struggle on occasion through the week to get my exercises in, but on the weekend I make sure I get them done! I think I need to buy a skipping rope too – while it’s doing the job jumping around “pretending” I have the rope, I don’t think it’s as fun!

I am really enjoying the program and would recommend it to ANYONE who wants to lose weight quickly (or even slowly, but who wants to do that??).
