Guaranteed Weight Loss – Eat These 3 Foods and You’ll Lose Weight No Matter What Else You Do

May 31, 2010 in Weight Loss by admin | No comments



I don’t care how much you weigh, what you eat, how much you exercise, or the amount of protein, carbs, and fats you eat… if you eat these 3 foods, you’ll lose weight. I can guarantee you that if you follow the advice in the article, 98% of you will lose weight.

So if you truly want to lose weight, I have the answers.

I’m going to make this very simple for you. This is not hard, but you need to follow what I say. There is some flexibility, but follow the rules.

Here they are…

#1: Eat at Least 3-4 Scrambled Eggs Everyday

Eat as many scrambled eggs as you want. Each large egg is 70 calories and contains 6 grams of protein and 4.5 grams of fat. Basically, no carbs. The bear minimum I want you to eat is 3-4 scrambled eggs for breakfast. After that, you can eat more for lunch and dinner if you want… or you can eat whatever else you want.

But you must eat at least 3-4 scrambled eggs a day. Period!

#2: Eat At Least 1.5 Cans of Black Beans Everyday

You need to eat at least 1.5 cans of black beans each day. A 15-ounce can of black beans contains 25 grams of protein and 25 grams of fiber… and no sugar. Eat black beans with your eggs, eat them on top of a salad, or as a side dish with a lean meat. Whatever, just make sure you eat them at least 2 different times each day. Remember, eat 1.5 cans of black beans each day.

#3: Eat 1 Pound of Broccoli-Cauliflower Everyday

Simple, get frozen bags of broccoli or cauliflower… I prefer to use a combo bag. Steam them up and eat 1/2 of the bag for 1 meal and 1/2 for another meal. That’s it.

Now, what else. There is nothing else. If you want to eat other bad foods with this, go ahead… just as long as you eat the 3 listed foods at the bare minimum levels.

This doesn’t require much thinking…

1 bag of frozen broccoli/cauliflower costs about $1.
2 cans of black beans cost a total of 96 cents.
4 eggs cost about 48 cents total.

So you’ll eat good for under $2.50 each day. Of course this won’t be all that you eat, but it’s the basis for a good weight loss diet. If you just eat the bare minimum of the foods I listed, I give you permission to also eat whatever else you want… and I’m pretty sure you’ll lose weight.

Doesn’t matter how much you weigh, how much or little you exercise, or anything else. Those foods are magical, so take advantage of them. They’re also cheap, so you can’t use that as an excuse.

So do me a favor. Eat those foods or I’ll take my extra eggs and egg your house. Kidding!

Working a Depression Treatment Plan That Works for You

May 30, 2010 in Mental Health by admin | No comments



Unfortunately there isn’t a universal depression treatment plan. Treatments really vary depending on each person’s condition. Some people only experience symptoms occasionally and can use self-help techniques to rid themselves of the problems. Others face much more challenging obstacles and need to use medication to get rid of their symptoms.

What is Depression?

Depression is an extremely debilitating mental disease. People suffering from it have a difficult time doing anything, even getting out of bed. They feel worthless, out of touch with the world, they can’t sleep, experience anxiety and often times can’t figure out why life is worth living. They a general feeling of hopelessness and despair.

Treating Depression

Depression is a serious mental disease however, many who suffer from it will benefit from developing a personal self-help plan. A key component to developing a successful self-help plan is learning to lean on others. Your family and friends are your support system so use them. Once you recognize that you’re suffering, share this with your family. Let them know your symptoms. This will help them recognize the problem in many cases before you do, allowing them to help you initiate your self-help plan.

When you feel depressed, you want to stay in doors, change your eating patterns and block yourself off from the world. However, you should do the opposite. When you feel depressed, force yourself to go to the gym and get some exercise. Force yourself to go to a movie with friends. Force yourself to get a good eight hours of sleep and eat right. When you recognize that you’re avoiding these activities because you’re depressed and force yourself to do them, you’ll start pulling yourself out of your the disease.

It should be noted that this type of plan will only work for someone who has mild depression. People who suffer severely or have other mental disorders such as bi-polar disorder, may need to take medication. Medications regulate a person’s mental chemical makeup, which has a stabilizing effect. If your self help treatment doesn’t work, seek help from a psychiatrist or other mental health professional.
