After talking about the Lipo-Light procedure with a few friends, I decided to hold off and see if better strength training exercises will help. One option is the P90X exercise program by trainer Tony Horton. I know some people had good results with that program.
I'd rather not rush into something so expensive like Lipo-Light when I could get better results from training. I'm also thinking of getting a personal trainer.
As I indicated in a previous post, I went to see a doctor about the loose skin after my weight loss. Just to remind you, after the weight loss, I was still left with a lot of skin in my belly area.
The doctor confirmed what I already thought... that I didn't need to lose any more weight. My body fat percentage is around 19 (it fluctuates up and down but it's around there) and my BMI is a little over 25. He thought this was perfect for my height. The subcutaneous fat that is still in my stomach won't go away with exercise or strength training. He recommended a process called Lipo-Light, a process where wavelengths trigger the body's own ability to break down fat. The body then releases fatty acids that are used by the body during exercise.
Here is an example of an outstanding weight loss success story. This individual went through many challenges in his life including many negative life choices which lead to his obesity, run-ins with the authorities and an unhealthy career choice. However through it all he overcame adversity and found a way to lose the weight! Watch the video to see his brief but touching interview which brought a smile to my face and a tear to my eye!
Even after overcoming obesity, he still experiences the same problem that Rich Hubbard is dealing with... Loose Skin After Weight Loss. Either way... If this guy can do it... SO CAN YOU!
While the weather is nice remember to take time with your children and do something active outside. Keep your kids healthy so they do not end up like this! Don't let this happen to you or your child!
In this installment of my series The real reasons diets fail let's explore how celebrating too much puts you in a weak position to fend off the constant temptations to eat poorly.
Do you ever feel like there are always activities going on at home or in the office where you are offered that cookie, cake, pizza, candy, doughnut, pie, cake, brownie, cake, holiday feast, cake, birthday party, cake... I think you get my point. How can you resist!
