More Americans Obese Than Overweight: Take Action This Month by Trimming the Sugar, Quickie Carbs & Junk Food

/

Sad news. More Americans are now obese than those who are merely overweight.
So finds the latest statistics from the federal government.
The new numbers from the National Center for Health Statistics show that more than 34 percent of Americans are obese compared to 32.7 percent who are overweight. Just under 6 percent are “extremely” obese.
Wanna lose weight? Just dump the sugar, quickie carbs and junk food. Over and over, I hear from happy, now-healthy sugar addicts, who’ve turned away from sugar only to find that the weight peels right off.

Are we all destined to lose our focus, concentration and memory? And will we all become depressed, anxious and tired much the time? Not if renowned physician Dr. Mark Hyman has his way.
Dr. Hyman, a pioneer in the field of functional medicine and author of the new book, The UltraMind Solution: The Simple Plan to Defeat Depression, Overcome Anxiety and Sharpen Your Mind, believes that you can resolve mood problems such as depression and irritability; attention and behavior problems such as ADD/ADHD and autism; and aging problems such as dementia, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
In fact, there’s no need to suffer from what Dr. Hyman calls a “broken brain.”
You can use Dr. Hyman’s simple 7-step solution to “unleash your body’s hidden ability to dramatically improve mood, memory and thinking speed,” according to “Oprah” regular Dr. Mehmet Oz, who endorsed this exciting new book.
I was so fascinated by what I read in Dr. Hyman’s UltraMind Solution that I had to blog about it.
In addition, I rushed to book Dr. Hyman today on my Gab With the Gurus Radio Show so you could learn how to fix your brain.
You can listen to my Gab With the Gurus Radio Show today, Tuesday, Jan. 6 from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern to learn how to get an UltraMind.
You can also ask Dr. Hyman questions by calling (347) 426-3366.

Wishing You a Sweet & Happy New Year. Take the Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge

/

To all of you wonderful readers,
I just wanted to take this opportunity to wish you a very sweet, happy new year.
Please listen to my new year’s greetings.
Also listen to this brief announcement to get your invite to take the Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge along with thousands of people around the globe.
By this, I mean that you’re encouraged to either kick sugar and other sweets entirely or at least cut back on your consumption of the stuff for the month of January. (And I’m also including refined carbs.)
You can learn more about the Great Worldwide Sugar-Out Challenge on Friday, Jan. 16 at 12 noon Eastern on my Gab With the Gurus Radio Show, when I’m joined by several other sugar opponents and authors, including Dr. Nancy Appleton, author of Lick the Sugar Habit, and Dr. Scott Olson, author of the new book, Sugarettes.
FYI, although I issue a 21-day challenge to readers of my book SUGAR SHOCK! and have heard from thousands of happy readers who took me up on it, I’ve never officially announced such an event.
Because I always believe in giving people credit when it’s due, I need to give thanks to Dr. Olson, a Colorado-based naturopath, whose challenge I chanced upon last week, thanks to Google alerts.
I was so impressed by Scott’s passion and commitment to giving up sugar that I decided to join him and also present a radio show with several of us sugar experts.
So join us! By the way, you don’t even have to turn your back on sugar yet. Just join us Friday, Jan. 16 at noon Eastern (or later, at your convenience) to learn why your life will be much better and healthier without sweets and refined carbs.
Also stay tuned for other exciting programs and radio shows. Hope you can join us for the first two radio shows of 2009:
Join us for the first Gab With the Gurus Radio Show of the new year on Tuesday, Jan. 6 at 3 p.m. Eastern when my guest is the acclaimed Dr. Mark Hyman, bestselling author, lecturer, practicing physician, leader in the emerging field of functional medicine and author of the fascinating new book, The UltraMind Solution: Fix Your Broken Brain by Healing Your Body First. You’re in for a real treat, because Dr. Hyman will spend one full hour with you on the Gab With the Gurus Radio Show to give you valuable information so that 2009 can be your best year yet. Not only that, but for the last third of the Gab With the Gurus Radio Show, Dr. Hyman will answer your questions. Just use the Call-In Number: (347) 426-3366
And listen to another inspiring radio show the following day to help you turn your Resolutions into Reality. My guest, the famous “Goals Guy” Gary Ryan Blair on my Gab With the Gurus Radio Show on Wed., Jan. 7 at 3 p.m. Eastern, will give you valuable information so you don’t fail at meeting your resolutions again. In the meantime, check out this exciting resolutions website, which is designed to help you make your dreams come true.
In addition, I’d like to invite you to join me at the 11-part Thrive (Don’t Just Survive) in 2009 program, which will begin Wed., Jan. 7 at 5:30 p.m. Eastern. You’ll get a chance to be inspired, educated and encouraged by a Who’s Who of health, wellness and empowerment experts.

New Year’s is a unique holiday. It’s the only holiday that celebrates the passage of time.
Perhaps that’s why, as the final seconds of the year tick away, we tend to become introspective.
Then, we wonder: How did time slip away from us?
And why did all our hopes and dreams never materialize?
Inevitably, that introspection turns to thoughts of self-improvement and the annual ritual of making
New Year’s Resolutions.
We all do it.
We swear to ourselves, “This is THE year that I’ll transform my life and fulfill my goals.”
We are determined to keep all our promises to lose weight, kick sugar, stop smoking, make more mon*ey, take more time for ourselves, find the person of our dreams or get along better with our significant other, be more patient…just fill in the blanks.
Right now, millions of people from around the world are asking themselves questions as they figure out how to make 2009 the best year of their lives.
Here’s a fun, creative exercise for you to do.
First off, think about how to surpass your potential in the New Year.
Take a minute or two noow. I’ll wait right here.
Think about your fondest wishes. What are you dying to do at long last?
Now, fill in the blanks. (You don’t even have to tell anyone what they are, unless you want to.)
In 2009, I’m finally going to _________________________!
