| | Lose Weight To Gain Confidence And Self Esteem | | 2008-07-13 01:43:04 | | To lose weight is simple. Yes, you heard it right, it is simple. All it requires is your commitment and dedicated discipline.NUTRITION - Physiologically, you have to burn 7000 calories to lose 1 kg or 2.2 pounds. You can lose those weight through a combination of decreasing caloric intake to a healthy level and expending calories through physical activities such as taking up an exercise program.For example, let's say you are consuming 2,000 calories a day, when you decrease caloric consumption by 300 calories (a small cheese burger) and burn another 200 calories through exercise a day (25 minute jog), you would be at a 500 caloric deficit.So, just by eating 300 less calories a day and expending 200 calories a day through physical activities will result in a net of half kg lost per week. You are then losing a slightly more than a pound of fat per week. This can be done too by eating food that you enjoy! Simple as promised isn't it?Do eat six small meals a day.

| Will A Diet Really Help Your Self Esteem? | | 2008-06-29 21:54:00 | | How many people take notice of this? This advice should be easy to comprehend - at least you would think it was; however, currently 35 percent of Americans are unable to prevent being overweight! Why is it then that vast numbers of overweight people want to lose that weight, is it to look good again or could it be about improving their health?The strange thing is though that it is so much easier to stay trim than it is to lose weight because as soon as you start putting on weight, many things become more difficult. This is something that all of us know deep down, that if we do not watch what we eat and how much we exercise, then we are doomed to an overweight future.Studies have shown that it is more likely a person who has lost weight using a calorie controlled diet, even if they actually enjoyed it, are more likely to go back to their old eating habits at some point. It is not actually difficult controlling your weight using natural weight loss methods and reasons not to put on extra | | By: Living Healthy Life | | |
| | Ways to Boost Self-Esteem | | 2008-06-27 09:26:20 | | What we need in this world is a self who can withstand the test of time. If you can't help yourself, who can help you? Boosting the self-esteem is a vital thing to do to survive and to be happy. And there are seven ways to do it.1) Think back to when you did something new for the first time.Learning something new is often accompanied by feelings of nervousness, lack of self belief and high stress levels, all of which are necessary parts of the learning process. The next time you feel under-confident, remembering this will remind you that it's perfectly normal - you're just learning!2) Do something you have been putting off. Like writing or calling a friend, cleaning the house, tidying the garden, fixing the car, organizing the bills, making a tasty and healthy meal - anything that involved you making a decision, then following through!3) Do something you are good at. Examples? How about swimming, running, dancing, cooking, gardening, climbing, painting, writing… If possible, it shoul | | By: The Soliloquist | | |

| | How Self-Esteem Feels | | 2007-08-29 02:31:00 | | This is taken from La Belle Foundation which is a self-esteem learning foundation (S.E.L.F.):"These are general descriptions of how we feel when our self-esteem is high and how we feel when it is low. Those of us who fit either description on a regular basis know that our self-esteem is in tact or in need of work. You are generally not thinking about yourself and do not analyze yourself. You feel good most of the time. When you feel bad, it doesn't last long. You are resilient in the face of diversity. You smile a lot. You have positive belief systems about your self, your family and society as a whole. You have lots of energy. You are able toaccomplish most of your goals. You are friendly. You enjoy meeting and being with others. You draw people to you. You make long-term friendships. You look others in the eye. You are trustworthy and able to be intimate and affectionate. You take risks. You are independent and autonomous. You have positive effects. You have behavioral and academic success in school. Things others cannot observe include: You talk to yourself positively, tell the truth, keep your word, are grateful to be alive, forgive yourself and others. You are empathetic, compassionate and you have a conscience. The above actions, decisions about yourself, and beliefs can be started and adopted at any time. They take life long practice and anyone can do them. A decision must be made, and then practice must begin. All of us make mistakes but being willing to forgive ourselves enables us to forgive others. You think about yourself a lot and analyze why you are the way you are. You are stressful and fearful of adversity. You may be alienated from and in opposition with parents, caregivers and authority figures in general. You do not smile easily. You may have a negative, hopeless view of yourself, your family and society. You are tired a lot. You may be unwilling or unable to set and achieve your goals. You stay to yourself. You prefer being alone to meeting new people or being with others. You keep people away. You have trouble making and keeping friends. You avoid looking into the eyes of others. You have difficulty with genuine trust, intimacy and affection. You refuse to take risks. You are needy and may have a tendency to cling or to fake independence. You create negative effects. And in extreme cases you can be antisocial and perhaps violent. Things others cannot observe include: You talk to yourself negatively, you do not tell the truth or keep your word, you do not forgive yourself or others. You may lack empathy, compassion and remorse. Raising ones self-esteem takes changes in behavior. Behavior will change with practice and intention. Self-esteem is an achievement--a process that empowers, energizes and motivates. It is not something that we have, but the experience of things that we do. Self-esteem is the experience of being capable of meeting life's challenges and being worthy of happiness."Unfortunately I can relate to more of the lower self esteem items than I care to admit. Maybe a few of the positive from time to time, but I really can relate to some. I don't smile easily. I always wished I had one of those laughs that were contagious, but I rarely laugh out loud. If I think something is funny I will maybe smile and let out a small chuckle but it takes a good pin down tickle torture to really get me laughing. I AM tired alot. I love to stay home and do nothing as opposed to going to social events, I have a hard time making friends, I rarely take any risks, etc. I think alot of these scenarios are common with people with social anxiety disorder. The statement that has made the biggest impact on me in this article is the first one. "You are generally not thinking about yourself and do not analyze yourself." How can I ever get to that point? I am so introverted that I don't know if I can ever NOT analyze every little thing I do.Which statements describe you?If you enjoyed this post Subscribe to The Reality of Anxiety or Add it to Your Technorati Favorites.

| | Weight Loss and Self Esteem | | 2007-05-21 01:03:57 | | An interesting thing has been happening as I lose weight on my diet. Not only is my blood pressure decreasing and my blood chemistry coming back in line, I have found I am feeling better about myself. I always felt I had a good self esteem, but looking back I realize I was becoming disgusted with how I looked and felt it reflected on who I was. I was also becoming increasingly frustrated about not being able to participate in activities that I normally found enjoyable, like soccer with my kids, running, and even hiking. However, with the loss in weight I am finding my attitude about myself is changing. I feel like I am able to be in control of things that have controlled me in the past. I like looking in the mirror and seeing progress towards how I want to look. Again, there are many benefits to losing a few pounds and this is just another on. I am enjoying the side benefits of starting to live more healthy. | | By: One Man's Battle | | |
