You Have to Get Up and Move

With all of the many diets being pushed who knows what to do. What happens is dieting becomes like a fad. What is the hot one right now. Before she died Anna Nicole Smith popularized Trim Spa. And why not! Did you see what she went from and to. WOW.

Kirstie Alley was a famous actress on the T.V. comedy "Cheers" yet she may end up being most famous for losing a ton of wieght on Jenny Craig. There are all kind of famous ex pro athletes including Dan Marino advertising Nutri System Men and based on how they all look maybe that is the best diet for men. Who knows for sure. One thing we do know is that dieting and diet products is a multi billion dollar business.

One of the oldest and controversial diets of all time is the Atkins Diet created by Dr. Robert Atkins. He wrote a book in 1972 that was very controversial at the time. He based his theory on limiting carbs and eating fat as a way to lose weight. His idea was that if you diet the normal weigh by limiting calories you can get down to your goal weight.

The problem with that, according to him, was that once you have lost all of the weight how do you keep it off. You are not going to continue to diet and eventually you will gain it all back. Based on the number of people who start and stop diets it is hard to argue with him.

On the Oprah Winfrey show one time I remember seeing her personal trainer talking about how Oprah had lost all of her weight. It was a combination of dieting, exercise and eating right. Making good choices. One thing he said that makes a lot of sense is to lose weight you have to get up and move around.

The more you move the more calories you burn off and the more weight you can lose. This could be very simple things like taking the stairs and not an elevator. Parking at the mall on the opposite end away from the store you are going to. Going out for a 10 minute walk after every meal. Not a long planned out exercise program. Just get up and move.

If it works for Oprah it is good enough for me. Now if I could just get some tips on how to be as successful and as rich as her.
