3 Steps
To Technological Weight Loss Success
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT THREE STEPS
AND PERFORM THEM EFFECTIVELY
By: Kenneth G. Dockins, CPT, LWMC
Let's face it. In today's world, you're literally
"lost" without some form of technology on your
side. And it's no different for the war on weight loss. Body
fat accumulation continues to be a major challenge,
especially in America, where the availability of a
comfortable lifestyle also comes with inherent stress and
burdening psychological and social responsibilities.
A Myriad of
Personalized Factors
Does anyone really know how to lose
weight successfully in only three steps?
The best answer to that question would
be, to know how to choose the RIGHT three steps and perform
them effectively. Losing weight has been, and will virtually
always be a multi-step process. This remains true primarily
because because there is no one, single factor that you can
lean on to lose weight. Body fat, weight management, and
their associated composition depend upon a myriad of
personalized factors, including heredity, hormonal
disposition, character, social responsibility, and stress
reaction profile. Don't forget the obvious ones, like food
intake and energy expenditure... and even the time of day!
And, circadian rhythms play a part in weight control as
well.
The Combination of
Three
With all this in mind, weight loss
comes down to three simple steps:
- Physically... Cap your calorie
intake while simultaneously increasing your energy
expenditure. Employ a specialized or personal
computerized calorie counter software program to
complete this task more fluently. That will give you
technological advantage, as well as traditional weight
management factual support.
- Intellectually... "Learn
more," especially about those seemingly
"little" things that add and detract from
overall weight loss accomplishment. Such items include:
target heart rate training, and supplemental
bioavailability (usually not efficient enough to make a
major impact on weight loss ability, yet so many think
otherwise, and practically depend on nutritional
supplementation to lose weight). - Lastly there's the
concept of pushing yourself to a more highly intense
physical threshold and following up those days with
sufficient "rest." You do this because fitness
gains are made primarily during the "resting"
phase. Exercise itself is merely a signal of intent to
better one's body, or the "request" for these
changes to begin.
- Socially... From now on, be more
highly aware that losing weight leans inclusively upon
social factors. Perhaps equally as well as the physical
and intellectual factors above, your social
circumstances and disposition can have a "make-you
or break-you" effect on your weight loss outcome.
Whether you might realize it or not, losing weight
requires you to make one, big decision about how you'll
get it done. Either you may consciously choose to go it
alone, or you might subconsciously seek an ally, friend,
coworker, family member, or professional help to achieve
your desired weight loss results.
The previous choice may also occur in reverse manner. That
is, your choice may alternate between being an intentional
one or an unintentional one. Yet, regardless, this social
decision still must be made because we live in a society
filled with people, and people exert pressure upon the
actions we choose to perform, either by indicating their
approval and support, or by knowingly or unknowingly
attempting to undermine your exhibited decisions and
activities. In that regard, it’s up to you to establish
the control, and lead the way toward your achievement.
How does technology play into this
social weight loss factor? Now, you can use an on-line
support program to lose weight, complete with calorie
counter energy balance information and technique
enhancement, motivational expertise, plus exercise program
design and planning with implementation and instruction.
Thus, even when all else fails, your social support can
still come from a caring, online weight loss specialist.
To Summarize
It usually takes at least three steps
to accomplish virtually any worthwhile goal.... some type of
preparation, some type of attack, and some type of
follow-through even after you accomplish your mission. The
three things that affect weight loss so highly often exist
in an inconspicuous manner. Thus, it is very easy to allow
such contributing factors to slip by unnoticed. Yet, they
remain crucial concepts because mastering them means you
much better determine your level of weight loss success. So,
use this "combination of three" and take advantage
of previously dormant weight loss possibilities.
