Jennifer Lopez amazing Weight Loss


Author: Madison

Jennifer Lopez dropped 50 pounds after giving birth to her twins and she has kept the weight off.

Gunnar Peterson fitness trainer to the stars, says that Jennifer will work out for at least an hour two to six days a week. She will do a 10-minute warm-up and then a series of high-intensity cardio paired with strength and resistance moves.

A famous quote from Gunnar " The scale causes more injuries than any other piece of equipment in the gym. Stepping on a scale empowers an inanimate object-every time you get on it, you turn over the helm of your emotional well being to something that doesn't care about you. Just think about how you feel when you're working hard and loving your body. Want to know if you've gained or lost weight? Put on your favorite pair of jeans." Wise man!

This custom program taught Jennifer how to work out smarter not harder. People who train for more than 2 hours a day are overtraining and end up hindering rather than helping themselves. Your workouts should not last longer than one hour 4 to 6 times a week.

Jennifer also sticks to 1,200 to 1,400 calories a day. And like all good celebrities she is sure to eat lean proteins, fruits, vegetables, good fats and low glycemic carbs.

Lopez is one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood and the highest-paid Latin actress in Hollywood history. This explains why she works to keep her body and mind in excellent physical shape.

Jennifer Lopez's weight loss was a smart and healthy approach to dieting.

Look Sexy Like the Victoria's Secret Angels - Complete Diet and Workout!

By Melissa Larone

They stare at us from billboards, glossy magazine pages and catalogues. Once a year they strut their sexy slim bodies down a long glittery runway, eyes from all around the world are fixed on them. Whether it be their never ending lean legs or firm toned midsection...there is something about them that just screams perfection. They have angelic soft faces, nothing is out of proportion. Walking dolls. They are the Victoria's Secret Angels.

We may not all be blessed with flawless faces and one in a million genetics. But we all do have the ability to shape and recreate our own bodies. We can decide if we want the petite feminine look of a ballerina, the toned lean look of a fitness model, the ultra skinny size 0 fashion model look or if we want to be lovely and curvaceous.

We have the ability to create the body of our dreams. It's not rocket science, it all comes down to nutrition and exercise. It's quite simple. I'm going to reveal the Victoria's Secret Angel Workout. This is what the likes of Heidi Klum, Miranda Kerr, Giselle Bundchen and Adriana Lima follow to get into shape.

Cardio is an important part of their workout. It depends on your own personal genetic makeup. Giselle Bundchen doesn't need to do cardio to stay in shape, she adds yoga and horse riding to her regime, where as Miranda Kerr runs 5km evryday with her trainer.

If you are naturally very thin and want to add some muscle to look more feminine and sculpted like the angels, then you won't need to do cardio. If its in your genetics to hold fat or if you haven't been eating healthily and have some weight to lose. You could start off by adding a 45 minute walk in the morning before you have breakfast. If you want to go hardcore and get the fastest results possible, you can do what Miranda Kerr does and go for a long run every day.

Whatever you decide to do with your cardio is your choice. Here are the exercises that everyone who wants the look of a Victorias Secret Angel must follow.

2 minutes: Light stretching, including Good Mornings and Good Mornings with Knee Bends
1 minute: Jumping Jacks
30 seconds: Platypus Walks
1 minute: Shadowboxing with Crossovers, Uppercuts and Knee Bends
1 minute: Plié Squats with Calf Raises
2 minutes: Reverse Lunges
1 minute: Squat Thrusts
1 minute: Scissors Reverse Crunches
2 minutes: Deluxe
1 minute: Bench Stepups (if possible, combine with Triceps Kickbacks)
1 minute: Pushups

Now for the diet. The models eat small meals 5 times a day. They avoid processed food and usually stick to eating organic fruit and vegetables when possible. Their diet is high in protein so they keep their muscle and only lose fat.

There you have it! Now you have the ability to look as sexy as a Victoria's Secret Model! If you don't have a willingness to work hard, chances are you will just go from one fad diet to the next. It didn't take you a week to gain all the weight you may be trying to lose, so don't expect to lose it in a week.

Viagra moisturiser that shrinks waistlines


Zagreb, April, 02: Scientists are on their way to provide double bonanza to women looking for healthy skin – a moisturiser containing Viagra that could resolve cellulite issues.

The drug sildenafil has had mixed success as a drug for women, but according to Croatian researchers incorporating the stuff into a moisturiser could open up a whole new market, reports New Scientist.

Beneath the skin surface is a layer of fatty tissue that is thicker in women with cellulite than those without. The distinctive "orange peel" dimpling pattern associated with cellulite comes from this fat layer and an irregular layer of collagen beneath the skin.

According to Karmela Altabas and colleagues from the University Hospital "Sisters of Charity" in Zagreb, Viagra has two things going for it as an anti-cellulite treatment.

First, enzyme inhibitors like sildenafil had been shown to break down fat in test tubes, so it might do the same to fat deposited under the skin. And since Viagra famously boosts blood flow, a moisturiser containing the drug might break down fat and then whisk it away.

Though no Viagra cream has been made yet, Altabas stresses that his proposal is "just a hypothesis," and would need a lot of investigation from pharmaceutical companies, if any are interested.

How To Lose Weight The Right Way, Ten Top Tips To Lose Weight

It is a well documented fact that diets do not work, this is because dieters do not know how lose weight the right way. Over 90% of dieters fail to lose weight permanently. You do want to keep the weight off permanently, right? The restrictions that go with all diets are too much of a burden for you to follow long term, and for those few who manage to stick it out long term and lose weight, what happens when they finally come off the diet? The weight comes back, surely but surely. So if you want to lose weight permanently, you must make permanent changes to your lifestyle, so that when the weight does come off, it stays off.

So what changes can be made? You should be looking for multiple small changes to your eating habits, changes that are easy to make and and easy to keep to. A good rule of thumb is to ask yourself if you will be able to keep to the change for the rest of your life. If you answer yourself "no" then it's probably better not to make the change in the first place, since any gains will be offset once you come away from the change. Try using skimmed milk, sugar substitutes, low-cal soda, in fact there are low-calorie alternatives for many of todays popular foods. Drink more water, eat more fresh fruit and veg. You know this stuff, it's not rocket science, but it does need a commitment from you. Maybe today is the day?

No weight loss program can be succesful without exercise. Even the fad diets all state that their measures will be ineffective without exercise. The "E" word can be pretty scary for many people, because it drums up images of leotards, gymnasiums and lots of sweat. Exercise doesn't have to be like this, there is only one rule when it comes to exercise; whatever it is, do it EVERY day without fail, (or at least five days a week). So it could be something as simple as walking or cycling. In the long run, fifteen minute's walk every day is more effective than a two-hour workout in the gym. For most of us the gym workouts will stop at some point in the future - let's face it, we don't need much of an excuse not to go to the gym today, do we? By contrast, a walk is something that we can do every day, without having to give it up.

The equation for weight loss is as simple as it ever was: burn more energy than you consume. This can be done through modification of diet or an increase in energy burn - preferably both. In short, eat less and move more.

Loking at the points discussed do far, the top ten tips to lose weight are based on these principles. If you are looking to lose weight fast, this list is not for you. Yes, it is possible to lose weight fast, but it is highly probable that you will put it all back on as quickly as you lost it. This is a long term plan, and it will take six to twelve months to have significant permanent effect. This can be quite a demoralizing thought, but remember; a pound lost using this system is a pound lost for good.

1. Forget fad diets they don't work

2. Make a decision to exercise every day. Start tomorrow. Walk, cycle, swim - anything is OK

3. Look for small changes you can make to your daily energy consumption.

4. Stop eating fried food. Broil, Steam, Bake, Roast, Boil, Microwave but DON'T fry!

5. Set a time in the evening - say six 0' clock. Make a rule NEVER to eat after that time.

6. Get at least 8 hours' sleep each night. If you are tired during the day you will turn to high energy candiy bars, cakes and cookies to boost your flagging body.

7. Eat breakfast. Yes, you've heard it before - never mind the reasons why, the statistical fact is that almost all people who lose weight permanently eat breakfast. So just DO IT!

8. DON'T cut out carbohydrates. Your body and brain need carbs (NOT from sugar!) so eat them, preferably with fiber, eg wholemeal bread and pasta, potatoes with the skin on.

9. Cut out fat. This is the most significant change you can make. Fat has a huge calorific value, so do your utmost to find alternatives. Yes, your body needs fat, but don't worry, no matter how hard you try to eliminate it, thanks to today's processed food environment you will always eat a degree of fat.

10. Don't be impatient, you want to lose weight permanently, not lose weight fast. This is a long term program.
