NEW Dietary Guidelines for Americans
Earlier this year, the USDA and HHS released updated dietary guidelines to help Americans adhere to a healthier lifestyle and make healthier food choices in a national effort to combat obesity. According to a press release, more than one-third of children and at least two-thirds of adults in the United States are significantly overweight or obese, so the new dietary guidelines focuses on balancing calories consumption with physical activity to manage weight loss. It also encourage Americans to eat more fruits and vegetables and less sodium and saturated fats. To view the dietary guidelines in its entirety, click here and make it an important part of your Aliso Viejo weight loss program.

Cardio and medical diet pills working together
Medical diet pills are by no means a cure-all weight loss solution. However, with proper diet, nutrition and exercise, medical diet pills have the potential to magnify the benefits of physical activity combined with an improved diet to help you lose weight at a faster rate than without medical diet pills. When cardio and medical diet pills collide, you improve your chances of losing the weight in no time.
Even though most of us are fully aware that we need to incorporate more cardio into our daily routines, we tend to brush it off because of our disillusions about cardio being such a drag. It's too hard or too boring and some of us just don't see it as a priority when it really should be. We don't want to run a full mile around the track. We don't want to break our backs lifting weights. And we certainly don't want to stare at a wall for 30 minutes at a gym. But did you know that cardio can actually be fun and worthwhile.
Adding more cardio into your routine doesn't have to be time consuming or wallet breaking. It doesn't have to be done at the gym, and a lot of times, you don't even have to leave home! Some of our daily activities like vacuuming or washing the car can turn into a fun little cardio exercise if you throw on some good tunes from your iPod.
The beauty of cardio is that you can turn any physical activity into a cardivascular activity if it meets two key principles: intensity and time. As far as intensity, it only counts as cardio if you elevate your heart rate to your target heart rate which is about 60-85 percent of your maximum heart rate, an ideal intensity level to get the most from your work out. As for timing, all you really need is 10 minutes of a high-intensity work out for it to be considered as cardio. Ideally, you want to engage in at least 30 minutes of cardio a day, but no one ever said it had to be done all at once. If you take 10 minutes in the morning, 10 minutes at lunch and 10 minutes before you got to bed, you'll have gotten your recommended dose of cardio for the day!
If you would like to maximize the results of any medical diet pills you are talking, then you need to start incorporating cardio into your daily routine. When you combine medical diet pills with proper diet and nutrition and a solid work out plan, you will be more likely to reach your weight loss goals and even more likely to continue your weight loss program to keep the excess weight off and maintain your weight where you'd like it to be.

How to make the most of your weight loss program
If you're like most people, losing weight can seem like a losing battle with yourself, but it doesn't have to be with the right weight loss program and proper discipline. Yes, we know... disciplining yourself isn't always easy, especially if you're the type to make excuses after excuses. We've all been there.
You tell yourself you'll wake up an hour early to go for a jog, but by the time morning comes, you'd rather sleep in because you stayed up too late the night before. So, you tell yourself you'll go to gym during lunch time or after work, but that never happens because your too busy running errands and what not. Then you resolve to make it a late-night work out, but by the time night fall comes, you're too tired to engage in any physical activity and put it off until morning. And the cycle repeats itself just like that day in and day out. We get it.
So how do you create a weight loss program that works for you, and more importantly, how do you make the most of it? First off all, understand that it takes 21 days to develop a habit and once you've developed that habit, you won't want to break it because it becomes habitual for you. Keeping that in mind, a good source of motivation might be to weigh yourself in the morning. You see, your weight fluctuates throughout the day but you are at your lightest in the morning time, which serves as a good baseline to focus on. For some people, stepping on the scale serves as a daily motivation to get in shape or maintain they shape they are in.
As part of your new weight loss program, make it a happen to ditch the daily cup of caffeine and opt for a different type of energy boost we like to call endorphins. The problem with most weight loss programs is that we're trained to believe that we have to give something up or make sacrifices to achieve our weight loss goals, but this is kind of a negative approach if you really think about it. Instead of making a sacrifice (like giving up that daily mocha latte), resolve to make a replacement. Replace your old negative habits, which probably makes you fill jittery by noon time, with a new positive habit, which will probably make you feel rejuvenated and even energized instead.With that said, exercising after you step off the scale in the morning is probably the most optimal time of day to lose weight because you haven't taken in any calories just yet which gives your body a chance to burn of the fat stored in your body which is where you really want to focus on as part of your weight loss program.
Another suggestion to make the most of your weight loss program is to eat regular meals during the day. Following your body's natural cycle, or circadian rhythm, can make a huge difference and maximize weight loss. You should try to eat at least one hour within waking up and about four hours after that. Then you should have dinner around six hours later. And no matter how tired you are, don't fall asleep with a full stomach. There should be at least a three hour window between dinner time and bed time.
These are just a few ideas and words of encouragement to help you make the most of your weight loss program. At American Weight Loss Centers, we have several Orange County weight loss programs that you may find beneficial. Losing weight doesn't have to be a losing battle with our weight loss programs working with you and not against you. Call now to learn more at 949-831-9977
