Is Your Weight-Loss Stalled?

Too much of a good thing

Maybe the problem is having too much of a good thing. If you eat mostly from the green, low-glycemic list you are avoiding the insulin response that tells your body to store fat. Click here to read about low glycemic foods and the Green Light/Red Light eating plan.

We aren’t focusing on calories, but they do count.

Eating too much of the meat, nuts, and dairy list and not enough from the vegetables may be giving you too many calories, which will add up to stored fuel -- fat, in other words. Try eating more fruits and vegetables and less from the other lists, and keep a closer eye on the calorie numbers, at least for a while.

Once you have the hang of it, you won’t need to count so carefully.

What about exercise?

Are you getting the exercise you need to keep the “good guy” hormone, glucagon, flowing? Glucagon tells your body to burn the fat, use up the fuel. Move more and the glucagon will dominate over the “save the fat” hormone, insulin. (Quite a switch -- spending=good, saving=bad!) The step program will help you keep moving painlessly. Click here to learn about an exercise plan you can actually do from now on.

Try adding extra steps by walking while you are on the phone and walking around every commercial break on television. Start taking walks, making them gradually longer. The more you move, the sooner you will see the numbers on the scale move.
