Abs Truth Now promotes a healthy body with six pack abs. There are many benefits to this.
After you diet, you have many benefits. Weight loss before & after stories are common. When you lose a significant amount of weight, your life can change in many pleasant ways. Here are some weight loss before & after stories.
Margie had gained 30 pounds after her second pregnancy. She was sluggish – and not just because she had to keep up with a baby and a toddler. She felt that her weight was keeping her from being the mother she wanted to be.
Margie went to a dietitian to help her change her food choices. One of the things Susan, her dietitian, suggested was to eat a variety of whole foods that were low in fat and high in fiber. Margie had been making a variety of quick meals and picking up fast food because of her duties as a mom. She decided that it was important to start cooking wholesome meals for her husband and herself. She quickly started losing one to two pounds a week. Within 4 months, she was back to her pre-pregnancy weight. What a great weight loss before & after story.
Another factor that was important in her weight loss was wanting to create a family of healthy eaters. She didn’t want her kids to think that food came from McDonalds. Fast food should be an occasional treat not a mainstay of their diets.
Margie’s weight loss before & after story is an inspiration to all new moms struggling to lose the baby weight.
Rob was a teacher at an exclusive public school who has his own weight loss before & after story. One of the perks of teaching at the school was that it provided a catered lunch each day. In addition, fellow teachers often brought specialty foods to share at lunchtime.
The camaraderie in the lunchroom was one of the strengths of the school program. But it was killing Rob’s waistline. He decided that he would bring a low calorie sack lunch and begin walking during 20 minutes of his lunch break. He worried that skipping the lunchroom would mean he would distance himself from his fellow teachers. But, when they saw that he was losing a significant amount of weight on his program, many of the other teachers joined in. Soon, there was a teacher’s walking club at lunch time. A “club” based around an unhealthy eating pattern was replaced by one based on a healthy one. What a wonderful weight loss before & after story!
Kerry was a busy mom with a 50+ hour a week job. When she wasn’t working, she wanted to spend time with her two boys, Gregg who was 9 and Vince who was 11. She felt guilty about going to the gym because that was an hour and a half she could have been spending with her kids.
But, as she crept up near 200 pounds, she knew something had to change. One thing she did was get up a half hour earlier in the morning to take a walk. Then, when she got home in the evenings, she made a point of playing 20 minutes of basketball with the boys every day. Her new physical activity combined with a low fat, lower calorie diet, led to her losing 55 pounds over the course of a year.
Being able to increase the time she spent with her kids as well as losing the weight was a win-win for Kerry. That’s a truly great weight loss before & after story.

The Mind and Six Pack Abs Results
I came across this article today that surprised me. What do you think about it? I think it could help those of us who are borderline on staying on task....I mean, I had heard about pre-racing mentally to help you go faster before an actual race, but...
INCREASE YOUR PHYSICAL STRENGTH JUST BY USING YOUR MIND!
Sounds like one of those too-good-to-be-true claims, we thought. But researchers at Bishop's University in Quebec recently conducted a study* which indicated that mental training alone could increase muscle strength.
The two-week study took 30 male university athletes and divided them into three groups. The study focused on the hip flexor muscles, since that is one muscle group that can't be readily exercised in other contexts or with free weights.
One group performed physical training with a hip flexor weight machine; one group mentally practiced hip flexions at increasing amounts of weight; the third group did neither. At the end of the study, the group doing the physical exercises had increased its strength by 28.3%, which is not surprising. The group who did nothing not unexpectedly saw almost no difference. But what's astounding is that the guys who practiced only mentally saw their strength increase by 23.7%!
The bottom line of the study isn't that we don't need to exercise—of course we do—but rather that empowering your mind in order to improve your body can really enhance your performance!
We were intrigued by how much this mind-body connection can improve performance, so we did some checking around. Hypnosis is one of the most effective and safest ways to get into the zone. And Core Sports Performance, an audio hypnosis program from The Hypnosis Network, is by far the most thorough, professional, and effective program on the market.

* Erin M. Shackell and Lionel G. Standing, "Mind Over Matter: Mental Training Increases Physical Strength," North American Journal of Psychology, 2007, Vol. 9, No. 1, 189—200.
They do offer an installment plan if you feel this could help you be more successful on getting your six pack abs. For me, every little step I take helps me get healthy and

Your Metabolism As You Age and Your Abs Truth
Yes, we are all getting a little older everyday. And as we age, our metabolism gradually slows down. There are ways to speed up our metabolism. It does take effort, but it will help slow the effects of aging.
The way that you combat this is to use strength training to build your muscles up and to help you maintain a more lean body mass. This will help your metabolism to run faster than it might otherwise.
You can also add in a few minutes of intense sprints, on the field, hill or stairs, and your body will be humming to a faster tune.
Add in healthy eating habits and lots of water -- and you'll be on the path to a healthier body with lots of energy and abs to be proud of.
