The Benefits of Water – Nature’s Magic Elixir

By Tim Pannell On July 11, 2009 No Comments


With all the miracle weight loss pills and miracle drinks on the market you’d think that American’s would be losing weight hand over fist instead of piling up the pounds.  Americans consume billions and billions of dollars worth of diet drinks and energy drinks and have nothing but additional weight gain to show for it.

There has to be a better way to hydrate ourselves.  Sadly, the answer is so simple that many people discount it’s effectiveness because it just seems to be too easy.

Do you desperately want a a liquid diet drink that naturally helps you lose weight?  Go into your kitchen, walk over to the sink and turn on the spicket…..tada!!!!

Water, Good ole’ fashioned water.  It just can’t be that easy…right?  Well, it is that easy.  Water is miraculous with the health benefits it offers.  If you’ve been convinced by all the propaganda out there that the water in your tap is bad, then get bottled water or invest in a water filtration system for your home.

In any case, water is the answer for everyone if they’re looking to get their bodies back into shape.  Drink at least 100 ounces a day.  Add to that a balanced sensible diet and moderate to intense exercise and watch your weight regulate itself and your body transform itself into a fat burning machine instead of a fat producing blob.

If you don’t believe me when I say that water is nature’s magic elixir, then just watch this video.

After watching this there can be no argument, especially since everything on TV is the truth…..right?

Drink your water guys!

Make Losing Weight Fun With These Simple Activities

By Tim Pannell On July 8, 2009 No Comments

Do you groan when you think of trying to lose weight and exercise? Most of us do! Unfortunately, for so many, the very idea of losing weight breeds negative thoughts and feelings. You might even think it’s an impossible challenge.

After all, who wants to think of climbing on those machines in the gym for 30 minutes to take off the pounds? Or even worse, doing sit-ups at home. Yuck!

If losing weight has become a drag, you need to rethink your strategy.

You’ll be glad to discover that you don’t need to go to the gym to lose weight and get the body you want!

Here are five simple activities that will help you get healthy while having a blast:

1. Play group sports. One great idea for losing weight the fun way is to play group sports. You can even find the recreation center in your area has the equipment you need for free.

* Start playing soccer, softball, volleyball, or basketball. With these activities, you’ll be burning off the calories while enjoying yourself at the same time!

2. Go for a walk with your friends. One sure way to become active and get better health is walking with friends or family members. Meet during the week to take a brisk walk together, either in the morning before your day begins, during lunch, or in the evening after work.

* Schedule your walk into your day as social time. While you’re walking, take time to catch up and chat with each other. This way it feels more like a social experience instead of exercise.

3. Dance. Ballroom Dancing is another great way to burn off tons of calories, while having fun at the same time. Once you get your heart pumping, you’ll enjoy an incredible workout!

* Take a dance class.
* Go out to a nightclub where you can dance the night away.
* Get some dance videos so you can dance at home.

4. Beautify your yard or cultivate a garden. Gardening and yard work are both activities that burn calories so you can lose some weight. Planting flowers or vegetables, pulling weeds, raking, hauling dirt, and doing other gardening chores can really help you get in shape.

* When you’re squatting, bending, and yanking out those weeds, you’ll be working muscles you didn’t even know you had!

5. Play with your family. Even something as simple as playtime outdoors with the family can help you lose some pounds and stay healthy. Having fun with family can give you some much needed activity like running, Frisbee, playing tag, and other games.

You can visit state parks and go hiking, or find trails in your area.
* Climb a tree in your backyard.
You can go to the water, and go swimming or water skiing.

The possibilities are endless! You’ll have fun spending quality time with your family, and teaching your children a healthy lifestyle as well.

Although these activities are fun, regular activity and eating a healthy diet go hand in hand when you want to lose weight. You can’t count one weekend of gardening as your exercise for the week. Vary your activities for more fun, and do something to get moving every day.

If you want to reach your weight loss goal, you’ll need to be consistent.

As you can see, exercising and getting in shape don’t have to be boring or unpleasant. If you want to lose weight and improve your health, there are plenty of easy activities to do!
