Hello
Here’s what I found out after lots of research and trial and error, the hard way.

The reality is that there are no shortcuts or easy ways to get in good shape. Sorry, but someone needed to tell you this.
As long as you get conscious about what you are doing, you will see the results.

Below you will find the four principles that you need to keep in mind in your weight-loss journey.

1.Forget About Diets

People that go from diet to diet never reach a stable weight, let alone a good shape. The reason is quite simple: diets are, by their very nature, temporary. You can’t expect to eat properly for two or three weeks and fix your weight problems for the rest of the year.

2.Proper Nutrition

If you want to keep your weight and fat percentage under control, you will need to learn the basics of nutrition. Once you learn them, you will be able to eat healthy throughout the year.

3.Physical Exercise

Eating healthy and having a caloric deficit will only take you half the way. The other key factor is physical exercise.

4.Discipline and Perseverance

You can start eating healthy and exercising properly, but unless you stick doing it regularly, the results won’t appear (if they do, they won’t last).

Discipline and perseverance are key here.

Q&A: Is it the estrogen in birth control pills that causes weight gain?07.25.10

Question by Daisy Buchanen: Is it the estrogen in birth control pills that causes weight gain?
I know that everyone has different reactions to birth control, but has switching to a pill with a lower dosage of estrogen been shown to have a lesser frequency of causing weight gain? Thanks!

Best answer:

Answer by wah hoo
The weight gain is caused by the fact that birth control pills fool your body into thinking its pregnant, therefore you tend to gain that ” baby weight” regardless of the dose of estrogen.
