BBB warns of acai berry weight
There must be a trigger in the human brain that short-circuits when we see the word ‘Free’. (not to mention the acai berry, which WalletPop named the #1 hottest product of 2008)The latest companies to make use of this fault to scam innocent, overweight consumers are Central Coast Nutraceuticals and FX Supplements.
These companies, according to the Better Business Bureau, have conned consumers into accepting a ‘Free’ samples of acai berry supplements for weight loss, implying an endorsement by Oprah Winfrey that her spokesman vehemently denies. Other celebrities including Rachael Ray have also been featured in ads that aren’t quite endorsements but are obviously intended to imply such.
In the process of signing up for the ‘Free’ sample, the consumers were also enrolled in a monthly diet and fitness consultation service, at a hefty monthly charge. On the FX site, customers are required to fill out the form for the order before they can even see the terms of the agreement, unless they are savvy enough to scroll to the bottom of the page and hit “Terms and Conditions.” See those terms below — can you see what’s wrong with this offer?

Want to trim a few pounds before bathing-suit season? There’s no magic bullet, but some new books can help.
“Losing weight or trimming down is 50 percent attitude, without a doubt,” says Joy Bauer, the Today show nutrition and health expert and author of Slim & Scrumptious (William Morrow), her eighth book. “It involves hard work and commitment, but the payback is huge and well worth the effort.”

Postpartum Fitness
Having a baby means a lot of things: losing sleep, learning how to hold a tiny person correctly and dealing with the weight you gained during your pregnancy. As you try to get your new routine down, exercise may seem like that last thing you feel like doing. But, being active now is more important than ever because it helps raise metabolism, shed extra weight, provides much-needed energy and helps reduce stress and tension.
Studies show that most women gain an average of about 30 pounds during pregnancy, although many of us end up gaining a lot more than that. On average, 18 to 20 pounds are usually lost within a month of having a baby, but it’s those extra pounds that can be tough to get rid of. Your body may be different after having a baby. But, with a little patience and consistent exercise, you can get back into shape.

Dieting and exercising and not losing weight – HELP!
Hi, I can sooo relate. I have some suggestions.
As far as my “expertise” I was heavy growing up. I yo-yo’ed in high school from 125 to 180. In college I finally figured it all out and lost 48 pounds. This was back in 1973 when we were all just learning about the long term benefits of working out. Luckily I was in a modern dance class (instead of gym) and they taught us Pilates, so I did this every night and reduced calorie intake, and ate SMART…and, yes, the five meal a day thing is very helpful as it keeps your metabolism reved up and does not put you into “stravation mode”.
I will say that my life changed in 1983 when I read “Fit or Fat?” by Covert Bailey. He is my hero. That book saved me and gave me hope and unbelievable success. It is well written and easy to understand. I started pulse-monitored aerobics (which can include using the bike)…I did more of a “dance in place” thing in my small apartment and just put on the TV or played my music. Luckily, I took my inches at the start of all this in two months I’d lost 18 inches from all over my body. When I started this process, I warmed up a bit…did 12 minutes of aerobics, and then cooled down for a few minutes…This routine was suggested in the book. I worked my way up to doing about 20 – 40 minutes, but if in a pinch, I would at least get in my 12 minutes. Some of the newer information reflects other ways to do this, but that is how I started, and the results were amazing.
