Hi!

I just spent two days at the Inspire Scotland 06 and Inspire Internet conferences here in Edinburgh and they were ....truly inspirational.

From the guy Richard McCann whose childhood was marked by his father's violence and his mother being the first victim of the Yorkshire Ripper (an infamous serial killer here in the UK) to the guy who turned over a million pounds ($1.8m) last year selling chocolate fountains on the internet - every single person had a tale to tell and a lesson to learn - truly fascinating and empowering.

And if Richard can get over murder, violence, drug addiction and a prison sentence and turn his life around then we just have to understand that there's a similar power within all of us - the human spirit. We can turn our own situation around no matter what we are battling with and we certainly ALL have it in us to lose a few (or a whole lot of) pounds.

Have a great week

Love

Feature Article : What Will Burn Fat?

I had a question from a reader this week saying that she needed to burn a few pounds of fat and had seen a few different weight loss pills promising great results but she was confused about what she should take.

My answer is, as always, not to put any faith in the type of products that are advertised as helping you to lose weight without having to do anything.

They will not work - simple as that!

Yet Americans waste over $40 billion a year on weight loss products which do not work. What is it that makes us put our faith in an advert, an unknown pill rather than what we know. The ads are selling false hope, an impossible dream - reaching a goal without having to do anything other than hand over a sizeable sum.

But you can't buy success in weight loss. An expensive gym membership won't do it. Any of the thousands of books at the bookstore won't do it. And supplements certainly won't do it. Whatever you buy needs input and action - sometimes a lot of action from you.

Even with the weight loss medication you get from a doctor you have to do something - you can't just continue stuffing in the food and expecting a pill to do all the work. Life doesn't work like that.

If you want a particular result - in this case losing a few pounds of fat - you just have to do what it takes.

And what it takes, no matter which way you look at it, is eating less unhealthy food, eating a moderate amount of great healthy food and moving your body a bit more.

It's not rocket science - it really isn't - but we seem intent on making it as complex as can be - by pretending that the weight will shift if we just find the "right solution to losing weight". Yet the magic solution is right there staring you in the face. It's in what you put in your mouth and what you do with your body.

You could start today turning your body into the sleek, slim, powerful body of a dancer or an athlete, you could decide that an average slim shape is fine or you could carry on shovelling in the same old junk and moving as little as possible, staying overweight and searching for the latest weight loss "break-through". Those are options we all have.

Make the effort and you get what you want or waste your money on potions and pills and wait for things to change (they won't!). What will you do?

P.S. I had more than the normal rate of unsubscribes last week when I talked about weight loss being all about the healthy choices you make or don't make. It's an unpopular message that you have to make an effort to be slim but I'm not going to lie to you - there's no magic pill and instead of wasting your life looking for it, be one of the successful ones and take action on those things which you know will have an effect.

I have a simple system which helps you lose weight steadily week by week and stay in great shape without dieting for the rest of your life but you do have to make changes even if they are simple step by step ones to a healthier you, a healthier life. Are you ready to make a little effort in the right direction? Use any system for losing weight healthily or use mine - I don't care - just do it!
