Hi,

Welcome to all of our new subscribers, I'm glad you're here. To all of our old subscribers I'm glad you're here too!

I hope each and every one of you is doing great. I'm doing something tomorrow that I haven't done in 20 years.  I am taking a trip to Las Vegas without my husband.  I can't believe I'm actually going through with it. Believe me when I tell you it is a big independent step for me. Let's hope that I have determination to avoid those buffet lines.

Vacationing and diets are not always a good mix.  While it can be done, it is not always easy. The phrase that comes to mind in this situation is "easier said than done".

If any dieting vacationer wants to know, here are some of the basic ideas to stay on program:

1. Avoid buffets. Too many choices offer too many chances to fail.

2. Get in exercise whenever you can. Walk and see the sights. It is always the best way to tour an area.

3. Carry a water bottle with you and use it constantly.

4. If you can, carry some fruit with you if you get the munchies or a lot of outdoor markets areas sell fresh fruit. 

5. If you have a sweet tooth try a coffee at a gourmet coffee shop. they are everywhere now and all of them offer fat free creamers and flavors give you the dessert taste you may be craving.

Well that's all for this week.  Wish me luck! I'm going to practice positive thinking this time. I will win and I will make good choices! And you will make good choices too!

Until next week...stay on your plan and stay healthy!

Easy Tip Of The Week:

Many dieters cling to the idea that losing weight requires superhuman willpower. This is not true. The truth is, losing weight can be done. All you need is faith in your ability to do it. The rest is a matter of time.

So, don't let your previous diet-failures put you off. Instead, look ahead and start believing in yourself. Because once you believe you can lose weight, you will.

Exercise

Exercise increase muscle to fat ratio. Muscle cells are 7 times more metabolically active than fat cells. So the more muscle you have, the less fat you have and the easier it is to lose weight.
