Your Weight, Your Heritage©

What we weigh can be heavily influenced by our gene pool. Our gene pool can also influence how we look, our passions in life, how long we'll live and diseases that we may be at higher risk of contracting.

Although our weight is impacted by genes, that doesn't mean that if our parents are both heavy that we are going to be heavy (or always be heavy) too.


Ninety-nine point nice percent of the time we can control what we weigh, and to a certain degree - what we look like.

As a note, if your family history is one that is overshadowed by obesity, it may indeed be harder to achieve your ideal weight, as well as to maintain that weight.  But take heart - because I'm a living example that it's not impossible and that it can be done!

How to Lose Weight By Counting Calories

Method #1 - The first step in this process is to eat as you normally would, listing what you ate in a journal.  Next, at the end of the day calculate the calories you consumed by either using the labels from the foods that you ate, fast food nutrition charts, or by adding up the calories in the ingredients that you used to prepare a certain food - then divide that by the amount (portion, serving) that you consumed.

If your weight is steady, you can trim 500 calories from your daily diet and lose weight - about 2 pounds per week.  It gets a bit tricky though because as you lose weight, your body requires less calories to operate, and you may find that you quit losing weight.  At this point, you can trim another 500 calories per day and continue to lose about 2 pounds per week.  Do not go below 1,250 calories per day on any diet plan.

Method #2 - Most dieters choose a specific number of calories - such as 1,350 calories per day.  Their body begins to lose weight and continues to do such until they reach their goal weight.  It's a good method for weight loss because there isn't a need to continually recalculate calories.

Issues and Problems With Counting Calories for Weight Loss

Some individuals don't have the patience or time to calculate calories and learning how to do such quickly may take some time to learn.

Many times, there isn't an accurate way to know how many calories that a food contains, particularly at restaurants and cafeterias.

AGAIN - We do not recommend that any dieter go below 1,250 calories per day because we feel that this puts the body at risk.
