When you combine intention with patience, exercise and a healthy varied diet, weight loss IS possible! Whether your goal is to loose 10 pounds, 20, or 100—you CAN do it. It can be difficult to always eat well, whether stress or boredom strikes, or any number of other emotional triggers. My weaknesses are bread, cheese, cookies, chocolate, candy bars, you name it. I live in Manhattan and can get a deli or restaurant delivery to my door in 10 minutes.....any time of day or night, my buzzer rings and it's here quick. Beautiful, healthy foods I had eaten that day, whether it was oatmeal for breakfast, organic salads or healthy soups or sandwiches, green tea--10 o'clock or midnight hits and I'm starving! To me, strict diets and fad diets are a buzz load of baloney. Weight loss will happen when you shift your diet towards the wholesome and maintain an active lifestyle. If you slip and eat way too many cookies, and it's happened to me before, it's a good thing. Why on earth would I say that? Because you’ll eventually get sick and tired of that food coma you put yourself into and when you feel energized again, when you've just come home from that walk or aerobics class, your body will be craving healthy food it needs -- vegetables, fruits, wholesome soups and proteins, etc. You'll remember how run down and groggy you felt after over eating and your body will crave celery, leafy greens, citrus fruits, rice, fish, red wine, or the numerous other healthy foods you enjoy. Hoodia can help curb your appetite, try it along with green tea. It works for me very nicely especially at night when I need it. Hoodia is a potent diet supplement that is extracted from a spiny, cactus-like succulent plant, and has been used for generations by nomadic South African Bushmen as an appetite suppressant during long hunting trips through the Kalahari Desert which is 362,500 square miles! From the CBS broadcast on 60 Minutes which praised Hoodia, Lesley Stahl says, "Imagine not being hungry all day without feeling side effects typical of most diet pills, like a racing heart or queasy stomach." If you are having trouble loosing weight Hoodia could be your best bet.
