Wrong Message In Battle With Obesity



The Fat Loss Coach like most of you had day off on the fourth of July…Time to sit back and relax…I turned on television to enjoy sporting event of the day…No it was not my favorite team doing battle on baseball diamond, but it was a stadium filled with crazed fans…So what was the “BIG” event, disturbing to my eyes and painful to the Coach’s heart; the National Hot Dog eating contest…


When I'm asked in interviews, "What causes America's weight problem?"... I usually respond with the American Lifestyle is outside the hormone design of American's... So what was one of the major sports events on our counties Independence Day? Hot dog eating championship... No, not at your local picnic, but on national broadcast TV, (ESPN)... Oh, all my friends at ESPN, and you still are my friends... We even have experts to give play by play, or better dog by dog breakdown of the event... We now have gluttony as a sporting event... Have we become so blind by our unhealthy lifestyle, it has now caused us to cheer, and make hero’s out of poor quality of life…

Well I could not get back to work fast enough to share my message… Oh it is my prayer this message will get equal time on ESPN... Its time for all of us to say, I am free from being over weight, and free from all the hurt and pain it causes...

TV Host Wins At 12 Week Fat Loss Challenge


TV Host Wins At 12-Week Fat Loss Challenge

It was 12 weeks ago when Fat Loss Coach Charles Remington challenged Fox TV host Stan Simpson to a fat loss challenge as a guest on Fox's Stan Simpson Show... Simpson was intrigued when interviewing the nutritionist and former Mr Connecticut on his unique concept on weight loss, and his bold claim his customized fat loss system could provide fat loss, without the loss of lean muscle tissue for anyone…

Obesity is such a common media topic and Simpson had several weight loss experts on his show before, but something about the Fat Loss Coach's story seemed different... Remington was talking fat loss; not just weight loss... The Coach claimed there were flaws in most weight loss concepts... The drawbacks were lack of customization, muscle loss, limited behavior modification, and the body's ability to adapt to calorie reduction causing the weight loss to plateau... The other unusual part of the story was the former bodybuilding champion, who still looks like he lives in the gym saying, “Exercise would not be the main focus of the body transformation"...

 

So the problem and the solution were coming together; Stan needed weight loss and Charlie had the answer, which made sense to the host... The 12- week challenge was now in place; and the claims of The Fat Loss Coach program were now put to the test; and quite a test it would be... The Coach knew going into the challenge the Host's current lifestyle was not conducive for success; but also knew if he could prove it to Stan, he was validating his concept to the media...  The Coach knew his concept worked, because he had already proven it to thousands, but now wanted to put it to the test on television…

 

At the start of the challenge Stan weighed 228 lbs at 32% body fat; which meant he had a lean weight of 155 lbs and 73 lbs of body fat... The promised result of The Fat Loss Coach program was to provide a 5-8% drop in body fat; without losing any muscle or lean weight... This meant the television host would need to lose a minimum of 1.3 lbs of fat loss each week... Over the 12 weeks Stan ate four meals, which were perfectly portioned to his body composition and activity... Each meal consisted of foods Stan picked common from a local grocery store, which stabilized his blood sugar and triggered a hormone response; shifting him from a catabolic to anabolic balance... In simple terms Simpson's muscles were now being well fed, while he was becoming leaner...

 

In theory with everything properly in place how could The Fat Loss Coach program fail? Well even the best philosophies have to do more than make sense in a book; they have to work in real life... During the first week of the challenge, Stan reported to the Coach he was complying to the requirements of the program an estimated 80%...

 

The Coach’s work was now cut out for him…  Even though all the guesswork had been taken out what to do, some of Simpson’s old eating behaviors started to surface…  Remington recalled Stan would e-mail late at night when he started to stray of the path the plan…  Charlie would encourage the Host off the so-called ledge of falling of the plan by saying, “your four hours away from doing it right”…  One night after responding Remington, also a healing minister turned to God…  The Coach said, “God the bible promises you never sleep or slumber; well there is no sense in both of us staying up…  I place Stan in your hands…  God must have been listening …

 

The 12-week challenge flew by and it was now the moment of truth…  Stan needed to check in, and see if he reached the goals set by the plan…  Well even though he had conformed to the plan at best an estimated 80%; he had surpassed the 12-week goal…  Stan’s body fat had gone from 32% down to 25%, which meant he had lost 19.4 lbs of fat averaging 1.6 lbs per week…  During the 12 weeks Stan injured his knee and his regular workout efforts stopped for 2 weeks…  However over the 12 weeks Stan’s lean or muscle weight had gone up by 5.6 lbs…   Stan Simpson had won the 12-week Fat Loss Challenge; his body-fat had dropped 7%, and forget losing muscle, his increased even while injured…

 

Well timing is everything and on Tuesday 6/18/13 one day before the Fox taping of Simpson’s results, the America Medical Association makes a historical change in its classification of        obesity…  The AMA was now classifying obesity as a disease, which meant in the view of the AMA if you are obese you are sick…  Obesity standards differ, but the most accepted standards for men are a BMI of higher than 30, or a body-fat percentage above 25%…
 
At the start of the 12 Week Fat Loss Challenge Stan Simpson’s body fat percentage was 32%, which meant in the view of the AMA Stan was not only obese, he was sick… The 12 Week Challenge had done much more than provided Stan with 19.4 lbs of fat loss and dropping his body fat to 25%; under the new AMA classification he was no longer sick… It was with great pleasure after the Fox show for the Coach to congratulate the TV Host and to call him well… The 12-Week Challenge had been proven on television, and now the Coach was challenging the rest of the media world… If the Coach’s concept could work for Stan Simpson, it could work for anyone…

Weight Loss Dance


Weight Loss Dance

 
Its seems strange for a guy who seems to have two left feet when it comes to dancing to write about a weight loss dance…  In fact my article has nothing to do directly with the activity of dancing to lose weight…  However it does involve a valuable lesson I learned going to my first dance, which changed my life…

 
Several weeks ago one of my first patients of the day was an 80-year old female, 4’8” weighing 143 lbs at 47% body fat…  During our initial consultation I explained she had 67 lbs of fat, and would have to lose 31 lbs of it to get to her ideal weight of 112 lbs…  Her response, “that is impossible”…  I am never surprise when I hear those words; especially a client her age, but also never surprised, when it happens…  In fact I expect it will happen…

 
Three weeks after her starting her customized plan, she loses 7 lbs of fat, while increasing 2 lbs of muscle…  Her smile lit up her face…  I must say mine left me, when she said, “can I go back to some of my old habits”…  I closed my eyes and I could hear my father’s (earthly father) voice asking me; which girl are you taking to the dance?  What is so strange, it happened more than 30 years ago at my first high school dance… The Beatles were the dance theme, no not the ones in your garden, the group from England…  After I told my Dad who I was taking; he simply said, “be sure she is who you take home”…

 
His advice was so simple, but its wisdom would last my whole life…  He was saying remain faithful to the choices you make…  Bring home from the dance the one you brought to the dance…

 
I opened my eyes and asked my client this question…  What habits created her amazing fat loss in such a short period of time?  Of course she said, “my new eating habits”… Eating four meals a day of quality foods, which had been perfectly portioned to her produced dramatic fat loss; especially in the middle third of her body… She had brought her new habits to the weight loss dance, but now wanted to go home with some of her old ones…

 
Well it is more than thirty years since that first dance, but it taught me a lesson I have been practicing ever since…  I decided long ago I would bring to the dance healthy foods in amounts right for me; five or six meals per day…  My healthy lifestyle would be a faithful dance partner providing me a strong, lean and very healthy body; which was aging slower than the others at the dance…

I still seem to have two left feet when it comes to dancing; but I have masters a three-step system, which has changed the lives of thousands…  Over more than two decades thousands of my clients have brought to their weight loss dance a lifestyle customized to them of right foods, perfectly portioned at proper times…  The Beatles no longer show up at dances, but my concept has stood the test of time…  I still share the wisdom I learned long ago; bring home from the dance the one brought to the dance…

Tin Man Weight Loss


Tin Man Weight Loss


 

It is common prior to my daily workout to sit quietly in my office and pray over my workout…  As I enter into God’s presence in prayer I seek His protection from injury; and His strength would be made perfect should my body become weak during my exercise session…

 
I had an amazing work out session one day, which is guiding my hand as I write this article…  Before I share; I pose this question…  Do you believe God talks to those who desire to hear from Him?  If you answered yes, get ready for some deep revelation…

 
As I was training arms, I heard the Lord say, “Tin Man”…  I stopped and asked, “Did you say Thin Man?”  The Lord said, “No I said Tin Man”…  I stopped working out, sat down and asked, “Lord what is it about Tin Man you want me to know?  He said, “If you stay in the same place to long you begin to rust; it is time to move forward”…

 
Well I must tell you I think my arms grew at least one inch with that workout alone…  Now the best part came, if it could get any better; what was Tin Man in search of?  We all know; he was searching for a heart…

 
I was blow away…  So many times in fact too many times I have lost my way when my efforts became too physically driven and not guided enough by my heart…  How about you; are there times you physically make the effort, but your heart is not one hundred percent into your work…  If we remain there too long like Tin Man, we will begin to rust…

 
If I am talking to you, it is time to break out an oilcan, and start moving forward again…  Over two decades my message to my clients has been holistic weight loss…  A well-lubricated balance between spirit, mind and body, which produces long lasting fat loss…

 
We do not need a mechanic to check our oil…  To check how well lubed your efforts are; ask yourself this question…  Does all my heart, with all my desire and all my physical ability, guide my effort? If you answered yes, your weight loss efforts are closer to OZ than you think…

Coal into Diamonds Weight Loss


Coal into Diamonds Weight Loss

 

Put on your miner’s hard-hat; you are about to go on a journey deep into the Fat Loss Coach mine…  Our trip will take us far below the surface understanding of weight loss behavior, and deep into a revelation of knowledge, which will produce amazing life changing results…

 

We all know coal, unless you have large quantities of it has very little value…  However, did you know coal put under pressure over time becomes something very valuable?  Under the conditions of time and pressure coal is transformed into a precious diamond…  Where do we find these gems of stone?  Diamonds are discovered deep in the earth surface and it takes work to find them…  So what does our mining exposition have to do with successful weight loss?  Everything, in fact it just might be the most valuable coaching lesson I share…

 

To be at your ideal weight is much like my story of a diamond…  It will take knowledge, which represents coal and ability to perform this knowledge over time and through challenging circumstances to create diamond like lifestyle and ideal weight body…

 

So the two most important conditions needed to form the diamond like character are pressure and time…  Now take a good long look at the “weight loss” industry and you   begin to understand why its failure rate is so high…  The two conditions promised most are; it will happen overnight (quick fix) and they will show you the path of least resistance…  Remove time and pressure of circumstances, and coal will remain coal…  The same is true with an over-weight body; remove the knowledge of proper nutrition and ability to perform your knowledge under pressure of life’s circumstances and over-weight will remain over-weight…

 

Are you starting to get the revelation; why your past weight loss efforts failed…  The two conditions you thought would work; quick and easy, are the very reasons it failed…  Are you ready to turn coal into diamonds?  The best part is The Fat Loss Coach program takes out all the guesswork and provides the knowledge of what to eat, when to eat and how much to eat…

 

Being at your ideal weight and body composition, along with enjoying good health is “one” of the most valuable possessions of life…  No matter how wealthy you are; no amount of money can buy it for you…  The gem of being ideal is formed only one way; it must be earned…  I must say over my career this thought alone has truly blown me away…  Each one of us can own something so valuable even the richest person on earth cannot purchase…  There is only one way obtain this rare jewel; it must be earned…

 
As mentioned earlier diamonds are found deep below the earth’s surface…  Where is the knowledge to your ideal weight found?  In the same place; the knowledge to eat four meals, portioned correctly of quality foods has been programmed deep into your sub-conscience mind or spirit…  As you call upon your knowledge when tested under trial it will produce a diamond like result…  The amazing part is diamonds last forever and NEVER turn into coal; you will be at your ideal weight and NEVER have to go on a diet again…

Safe At Your Plate Weight Loss


Safe At Your Plate Weight Loss

One of my first coaching sessions today was so special it inspired me to share it…  My clients name is Arnie; he is 72 years old and still enjoys being a baseball umpire…  We all know the two most important calls an umpire makes during a baseball game is safe or out…

Well in the game of life, Arnie had called himself “out” of shape, and soon would be “out” of doing what he most loves umpiring…  He heard about the Fat Loss Coach program from baseball coach who successfully completed the program…

Arnie started the program at 225 lbs and his body fat percentage was 41percent; which meant he was now carrying 92 lbs of fat…  We started working together in the fall of 2012, and one of our major goals was to get him ready for the baseball season of 2013…

I still remember the look on his face when I said we would reduce his body fat by 50 percent…  At my age, “he replied”…  I smiled and said, “age has little to do with it”…

Umpires played an important part of my life as a young man…  As a gifted baseball pitcher I thought my professional life would be frustrating batters away from home plate with blazing fastballs and knee jerking curves…  As a pitcher an umpire judged my fate…  Well life has its own curves and for decades I have spent my days helping frustrated dieters back to their diner plates… 

Now Arnie was the player and I the nutrition umpire…  Instead of balls and strikes, I was calling out his protein, carbohydrate and fat…  This game would be much longer than nine innings and if he let go of bad habits; he could hold on to youthful health…

Arnie was surprised I was saying, “it is safe to eat foods”, he called, “out” of his daily routine when following diets…  Foods like whole-grain breads, whole-wheat pasta and whole-grain cereal… Foods he thought were the problem, were now the solution; to losing fat and keeping it off…

So why was our meeting today so special?  Arnie had lost 48 lbs of fat; the 50 percent loss I had promised; but had also gained 12 lbs of muscle…  Gaining 12 lbs of muscle at 72 years old…    How many out there have called themselves “out” of the game of being at their ideal weight and health?  Too many…

Well the Fat Loss Coach is calling you back “safe” to your diner plate and destined to your ideal; no matter what your age…  Just ask Arnie…  You will find him at the ball-field doing what he loves most…

Weight Loss Supplements False Marketing Exposed


Weight Loss Supplements False Marketing Exposed

 

We all know that scene in the Wizard of OZ when Toddo pulls back the curtain and the mystical OZ was exposed as being just a man…  He was a good man, but just a man… Now its Dr OZ himself who pulls back the curtain to expose the fraudulent marketing practices of what he calls “rouge vitamin and supplement” companies…

 

On NBC Today show Dr OZ told Matt Lauer, “I do not endorse any weight loss supplement”…  OZ went on to say,” I consider it reckless and dangerous for anyone to use my name or picture to promote a product…  More importantly, it could be dangerous to your health… 

 

Dr Oz said, “I am taking back my name, and my show is used to have “conversation” about your health…  OZ made it very clear if a product has my name or picture attached to it, “its not me”…  I give Dr Oz two thumbs up for taking his stand…

 

The weight loss industry is out of control, preying upon the majority of American struggling with their weight…  Wow… There could be no better homophone used than preying and praying to express these poor practices…  Sound the same, but spelled differently with totally different meanings…

 
If you need to lose weight, there are NO magical foods or supplements to turn what should be a marathon effort into a sprint…  Learn to commit to a healthy lifestyle of quality foods, in portioned amounts at appointed intervals…  The magic to manage your weight is inside you…  Learn how to release the power and live within it…
