Weight Release-5 Tips to Release Those Unwanted PoundsJanuary 2010 arrived with all its glitz, glamour, and New Year's resolutions. You made a long list of goals you desire to achieve for this year, one of which is to release X pounds by December 31, 2010, or as most people would say lose X pounds by December 31, 2010 (I would explain why the latter should be replaced by the former later on in this article). For some their weight release train derailed by mid-January, while others trains derailed at the end of the first quarter. Take these two scenarios for instance: Ms. Uplifted began a weight release program on January 1, 2010 which would extend until December 31, 2010. After giving birth to her only child three years ago, she decided it was high time to dispose of the 95 pounds she had gained during and after her pregnancy. The second week into the program Ms. Uplifted went to pick up her son who attended a day care in the Times Square area. While walking along Broadway to go catch the train to go home, Barry spied a McDonald's and pleaded with his mother to purchase a Happy Meal for him. After much resistance, she gave into his request. The cashier took the Happy Meal order. "Would you like anything else Ma'am?" the cashier asked as Ms. Uplifted slowly perused the menu. "Yes, I'll also like to have a number 1," Ms. Uplifted said emphatically. Before the words would you like to super size this order could come out of the cashier's mouth, Ms. Uplifted said "Honey, can you super size this order please." The meals arrived, and Ms. Uplifted decided to stay with Barry, so that they could enjoy their meals before heading home. Her weight release program ended that same day. Mimia is 20 years young and weighs 300 pounds. Her entire family is obese. For many years she has suffered with low-self esteem due to her obesity. On January 1, 2010 she decided to embark on her weight release journey to get rid of 150 pounds by December 31, 2010. Her journey went well for January, and then she began experiencing issues with her family who thought that she was insane for wanting to release that excessive amount of weight. They began verbally abusing her and making derogatory comments about the gradual changes that were taking place in her body. But despite the negativity, she persevered through February releasing 30 pounds since starting her journey. All this time the negative comments kept increasing, and by April 1, 2010 she had reached her boiling point. While sitting at the dining table for dinner with her parents and 2 younger siblings, which was a rarity for her since she usually ate when her family was not around, they all rose from the table and began circling her and teasing her with foods that were no longer part of her dietary lifestyle. Overwhelmed by their taunts and shouts, she grabbed the tray of fries and fried chicken from her mother and the bottle of soda from her father and raced off to her room, where she sat crying and feasting on a meal which she believed would never enter her mouth after December 31, 2009. This episode brought her weight release journey to an abrupt end. For those of you who have had similar experiences or had your weight release train derailed for whatever reason it maybe, here are 5 tips to get your weight release train back on track:
Start with any one or a combination of the aforementioned exercises by dedicating 10-15 minutes daily. Then gradually increase the amount of time for the exercise(s) you select, remembering that you should not exceed an hour in any given day. It is never too late to release that unnecessary weight.
