MY TIPS FOR WEIGHT LOSS Exercise is the key to losing weight, you may find it hard to change your eating habits at first, I did. That's where exercise can help burn the fat. I have an elliptical machine in my bedroom and a Tread mill in my living room because I was determined I would put the work in every day. This way you wont miss your favourite programs or listen to music what ever helps encourage you to keep going. My tip is get yourself checked out first by your GP then start off at your own pace. If 5 minutes is all you can stand then so be it. Listen to what your body is telling you when you've had enough. You will get better in time as long as you keep at it. I find that less is more these days I do 15 minutes on my elliptical machine and 15 minutes on my Tread Mill (You don't have to run for it to work). I also bought some stretching bands to use before and after exercise it makes your muscles more flexed and ready for action so you don't end up pulling a muscle. To tone up my
muscles I use a 4Kg
kettle bell, a
Flexi-bar, An Abs lounger, Abs Revolutioniser (Ab
Revolutionizer is actually it's correct name being from
the UK I mispelt it by mistake)- I like them all for
toning and building muscles I just
interchange them depending on how much time I have
and I only tone my muscles 3 days a week and I always
have Sunday off from exercise. I have had the Ab Revolutionizer
now for over 5 years and now. I use it with just 4
Kg weights on
the flip down pole at the back, right hand
side, which you
can buy any where and use one of the clips that comes
with them to hold them in place.
If like me you will find that exercising can be very addictive once you get into it, so set yourself reasonable targets and don't use the scales as your guide to weight loss because you wont get an accurate reading because in the beginning you will be losing water, gaining muscle and losing fat. Your clothes are you best guide but make sure you use a tape measure all over your body and keep a little notebook to check your results each week. If your going to measure your weight always do it on the same day and before food and drink and in your smalls to get a more accurate weight. Food Tip! I think we all know which food is our downfall and if you can either stop eating it altogether or reduce it! already we are on the road to weight loss! Bread was mine - did you know that one slice of bread can have upto 150 calories if it's brown and thick sliced and you may find your having several slices with a meal. An average meal should only be 500 calories on it's own so the bread is like having another meal on top. Author: Angela Ashton - age 53

I dare say
heavier weights would have a greater effect, but I don't
want to give myself a hernia just yet! You need a
yoga mat under it because it can be pretty dam
painful on your spine otherwise. I didn't get the
head rest with mine but when one is needed I just used a
rolled up towel. there's nothing to the kit really
its just the science behind it, in that it puts your
pelvis in the correct position and engages your abs to
have the maximum effect. I would definately say it
works but wash board abs wasn't what I was after when I
bought it just a stronger core. If I continued to
get my fat loss down and use this machine I would
definately see a ripple effect using heavier weights, but
I am 53 now and will keep using this machine along with
the others I have bought over the year. Non of this
equipment will give you the desired look if it's cover in
fat as my mentor Tom Venuto has always taught me,
"muscle burn fat". So burn the fat and feed the
muscle. 
I have even used the 6 second Abs machine all that did for me
I'm afraid was give me blisters pushing it up and down on my
legs, I eventually gave it away.
