The avenue to obesity loss can be a lingering one and take an individual downturn recurrent paths. In favor of some, the channel start outs and expires through attentive governance of their diet. Many others oversee weight around pure exercise undertakings. The path that medical practitioners encourage is an incorporation of dietary management and exercises. Not all hands acquires privilege on these adequately traveled methods.

In preparation for this bunch of folks, mostly in which time their well-being is compromised among a weight affiliated condition such as diabetes or hypertension, the resolution may be arranged via an action called the mini gastric bypass surgery. Oftentimes overshadowed through its adequately known alliance, the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, the mini gastric bypass has seen an expansion in recognition in the recent ten years. It is performed in the United States and overseas.

Having the surgery performed away from home can be less priced. The price in Mexico is approximately fifty percent the cost as an US procedure or lower. The mini gastric bypass is more or less of an adjustment between a Roux-en-Y and gastric sleeve. The Roux-en-Y works via creating a reduced pouch in the stomach via staples and attaching this diminished pouch to the small intestine. The gastric sleeve on the further hand involves snipping aside a sizable portion of the stomach to build a tube.

The mini gastric bypass operation also aspires to shape a stomach tube, at any rate it does so as by stapling the stomach instead of clipping it. This tube is then attached on route to the small intestine in a comparable activity to the Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. The preferred method of working this process is laparoscopically, yet the verdict may be brought about to convert the operation to an open or sizable incision technique during the surgery.

The accomplishments of the mini gastric bypass surgery are commonly corresponding to those of a Roux-en-Y operation. At the two year account, there is typically a decline in excessive weight of about 65% to 70%. The procedure aims to be short, durative thereabout a hour in utmost cases. More operations allow for the person to go home the very same day, however majority assume a remain of at shortest 24 hours. Individuals in huge numbers are often traveling back and fourth to Mexico to receive a mini gastric bypass surgical treatment. The high affordability and the quality received is enough to board a plane.

Michael Dunnage is the researcher and writer for weight loss surgery topics related to surgical intervention. His focus is on the less invasive mini gastric bypass surgery or mini bypass surgery which many people are going towards to achieve long term weight loss.

If you love running like I do you try not to let anything stand between you and your regular constitutional.  I know avid runners who run in every condition imaginable:  rain, sleet, snow, fog, the dead heat of summer, it really doesn't matter what's going on in the outdoors, we MUST get our run in.

Does this sound like you?

If so, there are some precautions you should be taking before you embark on your run if you live in a part of the world that is prone to VERY cold winters.  Otherwise you could be doing yourself a huge disservice hitting the trail unprepared.

The most important thing to cover is yourself!! Make sure you have proper weather specific running clothes on.  Be sure to use technical gear that will wick the sweat away from your skin so that when  you stop running your sweat doesn't get cold and start freezing to your skin.

Also, be sure to dress in many layers.  Chances are once you start moving you will feel warmer, and even too hot with the amount of clothing on that is required to keep you warm when you're not in motion.  So make sure you have layers you can strip off, as well as making sure these garments are something you can tie to yourself in some way so you aren't stuck carrying them in your hands once they're off.

Then you'll have your clothing with you when you stop running and need to start layering your clothing back on for warmth.

Always cover your head for warmth.  More heat is lost through your scalp that you  might realize.  And, you may not feel it until it's too late, but your ears are very susceptible to frostbite so make sure you keep those covered in extreme climates.

If you wear gloves but you find that your fingers still get a bit numb by the end of your run, then either wear mittens (keeping all your fingers together will help them keep each other warm) or slip some hotshot warmers into your gloves to help keep your fingers safe.

While you are running in the frigid air, it's a good idea to breathe in through your nose to warm the air before it hits your lungs.  Feel free to breathe out through your mouth if you are working hard but breathing in through your mouth may cause pain if the air is super-frigid.

You can also wear a covering over your mouth and nose to help warm the air (and protect your face from the climate) but be aware that once you start breathing through the covering, it will likely become pretty wet pretty fast from the condensation in your breath.  So if you don't want a cold soggy piece of material stuck to your face it might be better to forego that particular piece of protection.  It's up to your personal preference and just how cold it really is outside.

Always be sure to wear footwear appropriate to your terrain. Is the ground frozen?  Or snowy?  Or both?  Get yourself a good pair of snow running shoes with proper grips, to prevent slips and slides and potential injury.

Take safety up one more notch and invest in some 'tie on' grips for your shoes, specially designed to grip into the snow and ice.

Most importantly of all is to make sure you bring a mode of communication with you, just in case you do slip and sustain an injury.  No sense lying out there in the cold freezing to death when a simple small cel phone could have saved your life, right?  Make room for one in one of your pockets.  You might wind up very glad you did.

Have a great, fun, safe and warm run.  See you out there!

Before you receive a liposuction procedure, your plastic surgeon will carefully outline the areas of bulging fat that are to be suctioned. Your surgeon will then draw a detailed line of your contour in order to further define the shape and contour characteristics of the fat deposits. Cosmetic surgeons will use the "tumescent technique" in which there will be a large amount of fluid initially placed to swell the area. This technique will allow for fat to be removed in a very smooth, safe, and symmetrical manner. The fluid is able to help loosen the fat while providing a local anesthesia for operative and immediate post-operative discomfort. It will also be able to provide epinephrine which is capable of decreasing bleeding.

In a tumescent lipoplasty, small incisions will be created and small suctions tubes will be inserted to the proper depth of the fat deposit. This tube, or cannula will then be passed back and forth until an appropriate amount of fat has been removed. The cannula will then be moved over about half of an inch, and again several passes will be made until fat is removed. The entire bulging area will be treated in this fashion. The cosmetic surgeon will carefully remove small amounts at a time, constantly checking the contour and thickness of the fat as this suctioning proceeds.

After this suctioning is completed, the opposite side will be treated the same way. Your cosmetic surgeon will compare the two sides and adjust the contours to match. After this, the incisions will be carefully closed, and an elastic dressing or garment will be placed to put a gentle pressure on the skin. This will prevent excess fluid from accumulating in the area which has been suctioned. All of the incisions are carefully closed with stitches placed beneath the skin. This will make it so that there is no chance of "railroad" looking scars, but rather very fine line scars will appear. Immediately, you will be able to bathe or shower. None of these sutures will need to be removed, they will simply just dissolve.

Following a liposuction, many patients will have very little pain, but rather they will experience such things as tightness, soreness, or fullness. To minimize to collection of swelling and fluid in the areas treated, your cosmetic surgeon will request that you wear an elastic garment which will be provided for two weeks or more post-surgery. The amount of time will depend on the extent of your procedure. The treated areas will likely feel sore for up to 72 hours, and the soreness will resolve over the next two to three days. You will likely be prescribed medication by your cosmetic surgeon. Bruising may develop, but will subside with time.

How do those folks in arranged marriages keep love alive?

In our culture, so rich with the Disney Dynamic of Prince Charming finding Cinderella, and living happily ever after with the help of the Fairy Godmother and her magic or the Hefner version, Go Do It, it is anathema to think of arranged marriages.

Our parents or a marriage broker arranging our marriage? As my five year old says, "YUUUUCK!"

But Robert Epstein,Ph.D. in a recent Scientific American Mind article challenges the yuck factor.

He says that based on longevity and happiness, those arranged marriages beat our Disney and Playboy/Playgirl arrangements on two very important criterion, happiness and longevity.

Those disgusting arranged marriages last 95% of the time, even with divorce as an option, while our versions last 50% of the time in their first, second, and third iterations, and the participants in the arranged marriages, who may have met once prior to their ceremony, report increasing happiness across the years.

Epstein argues that the growing happiness is because those couples make a regular effort to build intimacy.

Now wait a minute, you mean intimacy is not what we did when we were in the stage of love described very well by Helen Fisher,Ph.D. as romantic love, which is driven by three parts of the reward system of the human brain? (The lust, love, and trust systems?)

You mean love letters agonized over for hours, drenched in perfume/cologne, long phone calls, e-mails, or texts in today's romantic life, staying up all night, flying off to Paris on a whim, those are not the foundation of intimacy?

No.

Epstein would say that all those things we in the West associate with love are totally unnecessary to intimacy, happiness, and keeping love alive.

What is necessary according to Epstein are regular practices of exercises like what he calls soul gazing, where the participants sit fairly close together and stare into each other's eyes to see the other's soul.

Julie and I have tried that and it does do wonders for our closeness.

Epstein also suggests another exercise, heart rhythm synchronization, which I really like because I have used something similar for several years.

In my version, using a heart rate variability biofeedback tool called Heartmath, I teach each of the participants how to access the affiliative and cooperative brain in their hearts, and make their own heart rate variability coherent, which feels excellent by the way, and then I have them come together and get hooked up to separate computer, get themselves coherent, and then hold hands.

(Your heart has a very sophisticated nervous system, sets its own beat, and this heart intelligence can learn and make decisions separately of any other brain we have).

Keeping Love Alive Heart Beat by Heart Beat?

What those couples see is a "heart beat" of their relationship emerge which moves into an out of coherence based on the thoughts and breathing patterns of the participants.

Couples learn that heart rate variability coherence is incredibly dynamic, and that it changes very rapidly.

In other words the relationship heart beat could be adjusted heart beat by heart beat.

Keeping love alive is easier in small increments, and it is not anywhere near as loud at this early stage of adjustment.

John Gottman,Ph.D. has been studying couples at his 'love lab' for 30 years and has put together a workshop that he calls The Art and Science of Love, which includes a number of written and video exercises for couples to do together.

The idea is for couples to learn the behaviors that Gottman has observed his Masters of Marriage doing. Those behaviors, once learned, are repeated for keeping love alive too.

Those Masters achieve something akin to what those couples in arranged marriages achieve, which is a happy and long marriage.

That marriage may have begun in Helen Fisher's romantic stage, but at some point, the Masters of Marriage moved into some conscious choices.

For example, Gottman suggests that 69% of marital issues will never be resolved, so we can move into the behaviors which Gottman says destroy intimacy like contempt, stonewalling, defensiveness, and criticism, or we can negotiate an arrangement that works for today, and renegotiate as needed.

To me, that sounds like moving into and out of heart rate variability coherence.

Helen Fisher's Solution?

Helen Fisher,Ph.D., has given us a new road map of what most of us with some life experience sometimes avoid as foolishness, which she calls romantic love.

This stage of love can of course move into something deep and rich, and Professor Fisher says we have the best chance of doing that with a compatible personality type.

We can have romantic love and more if we narrow the odds.

Her research has indicated to her that humans fall into four personality types, each governed by a neurotransmitter or hormone, and chemistry is best with a compatible personality type. Wonder how her personality quiz stacks up to the marriage broker results?

So there you have it, what those lucky people in arranged marriages do to keep love alive.

Beginners in body building should start with the exercises for abs meant for getting a chiseled and lean look of the muscles and providing the necessary exercise to reduce stomach fat. But in order to grow a six pack, it requires many compound exercises, out of which six most important have been mentioned under. These exercises require advanced strength and are recommended for the beginners only after they acquire the basic stamina needed for it. Moreover, while performing these rigorous exercises, professional trainer's supervision is recommended and it is also advised to always take rest before performing the same muscle group exercise again.

Here are the six exercises to get your dream six-pack:

Squats: This exercise is known as the "father" of all the exercises for abs. This is the key solution to getting a ripped abs and hard, well chiseled muscles. These can help you in gaining substantial muscles and flattening the stomach. Researches have proved to a successfully that squats can provide you with the complete development of the upper as well as the lower body without even the need of performing specific joint movements.

Leg presses: This is the exercise done for the lower body parts, starting form the legs to the ankle. This exercise helps unwind the muscles and is performed on a machine, wherein weight is pushed away from body while leaning over a platform.

Dead lifts: This is one of the main exercises for abs. These are a must in any exercise regime in order to attain a six pack. This exercise helps in building up the full body mass. However, dead lifts should only be done under the supervision of a professional trainer, because if the posture goes wrong during exercising it, then it may even lead to spine damage.

Bench press: Bench press is the best abs exercise. This not only strengthens and builds your chest but also helps in making the shoulders broader, while also gradually building triceps. It is performed by simply sitting on a bench and moving the loaded barbell above your chest and then pushing them back up, while repeating the same steps in the required number of sets.

Dips: Dips is the best exercise for building up the chest area. Moreover, it not only affects the chest area but also strengthens considerably the arms and shoulders. This exercise requires simply the use of a dip belt, though the exercise itself is relatively compound.

Chin-ups: This exercise for abs should be surely incorporated in the daily workout regime if one wants to get a wide back. This exercise is performed by using a chin up bar. The bar should be grabbed at a length wider than the width of the shoulders and subsequent chin ups should be performed by pulling the body up and back according to the suitable number of sets.

While not all of them are directly designed for exercises for abs they are very beneficial for your fitness level as a whole. You need to remember that if it comes to your body you cannot just focus on one muscle group while neglecting its counterparts. It can lead to serious injuries in the long run. Always remember to consult your fitness plan with personal trainer.

Building muscles has not been the easiest task to accomplish despite regular and hard work-out schedules along with experimenting new types of supplements and workouts. It is necessary that 95 percent exercises for abs that are done regularly at the gym to be multi joint and compound exercises as these lead to a better chance of getting the lean, powerful and ripped look.

1. The various requisite focus exercises are:-

• horizontal press for upper body (bench press, dips, pushups),
• horizontal rows for upper body (bent-over barbell rows, one arm dumbbell rows, seated cable rows),
• vertical pull for upper body (pull downs, chin ups, pull ups),
• vertical press for upper body (overhead barbell and dumbbell presses, kettle bell or bar bell clean and presses),
• squatting movements for lower body (overhead squats, front squats, bodyweight squats, back squats),
• dead-lifting movements for lower body (Romanian dead-lifts, sumo dead-lifts, regular dead-lifts),
• single movements of leg for lower body (lunges, jump lunges, step-ups, etc.),
• core and abdominal exercises (they are also important, but they still are second priority after the major multi joint-movements of lower-body and the upper-body. It is noted that major core and abs exercises would be worked itself from most of the major multi jointed exercises anyhow.)

There remaining left part, i.e., 5% of the remaining exercises for abs should focus on the single-joint exercises such as the triceps and calf presses, lateral shoulder raises, shoulder shrugs, etc. However, it is noted that these exercises are only to be done after the primary focus has been taken care of in the form of multi-jointed drills.

2. It is advised to train intensely with dedicated hard work 3 to 4 days a week, ranging from 45 to 60 minutes for each of the weight training work-out. Keeping the work-outs longer in comparison to sixty minutes can lead to the trigger of excess catabolism, which is very harmful. For staying anabolic, the body needs to be trained hard and with loads of intensity, which is sufficient to lead to the trigger of muscle growth during the best abs exercise.

3. One should only eat clean whole foods of respectable quality instead of the highly processed and over hyped supplements such as bars and powders. A nice quality and quantity of protein, which is the mainstay of the diet for abs, can be best collected by the human body from the real whole-foods only such as meats, eggs, vegetables, seeds, nuts, fruits, etc., and not from the protein-powders which have been processed, meal-replacements and bars, which are chemical laden.

On a recent episode of Ellen, Jenny McCarthy was one of the celebrity guests. When they introduced her she came walking in wearing a pair of 4-inch high heel shoes, which seemed very difficult for her to walk in. When she sat down the first thing Ellen asked her was why she was wearing shoes that were so difficult to walk in and Jenny replied that these are the only shoes she can find right now because very high heeled shoes are what is "in".

Although we all know that heels can make a woman's legs and butt look flattering, wearing high heel shoes definitely has its share of disadvantages as well. The first thing to realize about high heel shoes is that no matter what size you are wearing those shoes are too small for your feet! High heels don't have laces to hold you feet in so in order for these shoes to stay on your feet you must wear shoes that are too small for you in order for them to suction your foot into the shoe will you walk.

High heel shoes can lead to many foot and ankle problems. One of the most obvious problems that many women are very familiar with is blisters. When you wear high heels you have a greater chance of developing blisters on your feet because the shoes are too small for you. This causes the shoes to rub on your usually bare skin creating blisters.

Another common injury that occurs from wearing heels is ankle sprains. A lateral ankle sprain is the most common type of ankle sprain which occurs when the outside of your foot rolls under you causing stretching and tearing of the ligaments in your ankle.

The last common injury that high heels cause that most women are not aware of is bunions! Studies have shown that women who wear high heel shoes have a greater incidence of bunions. If you notice yourself starting to get a bunion then stop wearing high heel shoes immediately. If you choose to ignore this problem then it will only get worse and eventually your foot will no longer be able to fit into those cute little high heel shoes that you like so much.

Even though high heel shoes are undoubtedly fashionable right now they can leads to some serious foot and ankle injuries. It is understandable that women may be required to wear high heels at certain points during the week but the key is to try and minimize the time when you are cramming your feet into your high heeled shoes.

What's the easiest way to lose weight?

Simple.

First, get your exact number. Determine the exact amount of weight you need to lose. You can't hit your target if you don't have one.

Next, determine your time frame. How fast you want to lose the weight.

I've found that it works best if your time frame is in days. That way you can split it up evenly.

Here's what I mean...

So let's say you want to lose twenty pounds in thirty days.

Which, by the way, is very doable. I've seen people accomplish this many times. And I've personal done that!

Anyway, so the easiest way to lose weight would be to take that twenty pounds and divide it by thirty days. So when you do that basic calculation you find out that you need to lose .67 pounds per day.

Doesn't seem so hard does it!

So now you've got a re-defined goal.

Instead of focusing on this big number, you're only dealing with a very tiny number.

So your goal is now to lose .67 pounds per day for the next month. That's it. If you can do that then you will lose twenty pounds.

Now what?

Here's the key concept.

Now what you want to do is find someone. Friend. Family member. Co-worker. Basically anyone that you trust who's lost at least fifteen to twenty pounds in the past.

What you want to do is find out exactly what they did. What they ate. How they ate. The exercises they did.

The more you find out the better.

Then you simple want to model what they did.

I can't begin to tell you how powerful modeling is. Especially when it comes to losing weight.

What you're going to find is that the same basic principles have very similar effects on everybody.

This simply means, what has worked for someone else will work for you as well.

Plus, asking someone you trust beats having to "guess" your way through the process. This is the #1 thing that stops people. They guess. They get it wrong. And they give up.

So let's recap what we've done here. The easiest way to lose weight.

First, we've taken your goal to lose twenty pounds in thirty days and re-focused it to just .67 pounds per day. Much less intimidating.

Then we talked about modeling. Just find someone who's lost weight and copy what they did. Who cares if it's exact. Just ask them what the three or four main things they did were and follow them.

Oh ya...

Almost forgot.

Make sure you have a scale so you can measure your results.

 1.    Develop a game plan. This is your road map to success. Without it you will probably get lost along the way. Be sure to include both long term and short term goals. A good game plan will help you account for possible obstacles and pitfalls that may surface. Be sure to choose a realistic goal. Trying to achieve the impossible will quickly lead to unnecessary frustration.

 2.    Write it down. Now that your game plan is rock solid you need to document it. Some people even hang it somewhere that they have to see it daily. Add it to your calendar/planner and make sure that it is a full part of your daily life.

 3.    Put together a support system. A good support system will give you a hug when you need it and tough love at other times. Your support system has to be made up of people who not only have your best interests at heart but they also need to be honest enough to tell you when you are doing the wrong things. If you can find someone with a similar goal then it is even better.

 4.    Visualize (and attack for my Water Boy fans). If you can't see it....You can't be it. It is important to see yourself accomplishing your goal.  It is equally as powerful to imagine how you will feel and how your life will be different once your are successful.  

 5.    Reward your success. As you reach your short term goals find ways to reward your success. The key is to find rewards that don't work against your goal. For weight loss, the best thing is to reward yourself with something other than food/drinks. Buying a new outfit is a great option.

 6.    Show persistence, resolve and commitment. Stay on the path no matter what. Don't let anyone or anything derail your progress.  This is where having a strong support team is worth its weight in gold.

As always let me know if you have any qustions.

Personal Trainer

Boot Camp Instructor

I have over 10 years of experience from working with clients ranging from weekend warriors to world class athletes. I have taught strength and conditioning at Lincoln University (PA) where my students learned how to incorporate fitness into their everyday lives.

While at Lincoln I coached both cross country and track and field. My experience has allowed me to spend time at a major national gym as the Assistant Fitness Director.

My ability to construct a complete program that is tailor made to each specific person allows me to get the best results possible from anyone.

Each workout is different and challenging enough to produce the desired results, but not so challenging that you become discouraged. I am certified by The National Federation of Professional Trainers and a 13 time NCAA Track & Field All-American. My CPR certification is through The American Safety & Health Institute.
