The average American male is 25 pounds heavier today than the average American male of 1960.
According to researchers, 66% of US Adults are overweight today.

Every day 11,000 diet books are sold on Amazon.com.
Every day Americans spend $158 million on over the counter diet pills, weight loss programs and diet books, diet home food delivery, gastric bypass surgery, weight-loss spas, and various "ab sculptors" and "bun trainers."
Globally, 600 million people are undernourished.
Globally, there are over 1 billion individuals who are overweight (300 million being obese) - making this the first time in recorded history that there are more overweight people on earth than those who are undernourished.
Hope you enjoyed these facts, and that they inspire you to reach your weight loss/health goals in 2011! Don't forget there's still time to enter the FucoThin giveaway!
Today, I am extremely excited to announce some exciting info that can seriously change your life in 2011!
First, I want to share with you the awesome results that participants in Perfect Weight America's Healthy Toledo pilot program achieved. I hope these encourage you that you can do it too!
"The results of Healthy Toledo—both measured and anecdotal—were quite significant. The 126 participants lost over 1,700 pounds, improved their blood pressure, and decreased their body fat and Body Mass Index in just eleven weeks. The average weight loss among the 126 participants was 13.5 pounds. In addition:
The Top 3 Participants (ranked by weight loss) decreased their weight by an average of 43.7 pounds.
The top half of participants (63 PARTICIPANTS) lost an average of 20 pounds.
The 80 individuals whose Body Mass Index placed them in the "obese" or "overweight" body type category lost an average of 16.7 pounds.
Do you want to have results like these in this New Year?
Then I have a giveaway to help you do just that, sponsored by Garden of Life!
Garden of Life has a revolutionary product designed to help you achieve your weight loss goals- without stimulating your central nervous system and causing jitters and sleeplessness like many "diet pills" do.
FucoThin is a whole food supplement that increases your body's metabolic rate, which essentially stokes your internal fires and causes you to burn fat!
And the best part about FucoThin is that it's made from a potent compound found in seaweed, combined with pomegranate seed oil. It is actually high in antioxidants too!
I know someone who could not lose a stubborn 10 pounds after having a baby. She took FucoThin faithfully, and steadily dropped the weight. Sometimes our bodies just need a little extra boost!
FucoThin can do just that, and it's designed to work in conjunction with following the Perfect Weight America food and healthy lifestyle plan. (So make sure to pick up a copy of the book!)

To many Americans, reaching our body's optimal weight can feel like a pipe dream. When every magazine cover touts a diet or a pill that says you can lose, "20 lbs in 6 days!" it's easy to feel hopeless, discouraged, and that all is lost.
That's another thing I really love about Perfect Weight America, Jordan Rubin's revolutionary weight loss/healthy lifestyle program.It works, but it doesn't claim that you'll lose insane amounts of weight in a ridiculously small amount of time. It works, but you don't starve yourself, or count calories obsessively all day long. Many diet programs hinge on that very principle alone, and my theory is that it's why the majority of dieters fail. (Or if they succeed, go on to develop eating disorders.)
Let's get over the fantasy that you can pop a magic pill, or lose weight without much effort.
On the flip side, let's get over the idea that we have to starve ourselves to look great. We just make ourselves miserable that way, and you can't be healthy when you're obsessing over every calorie.
Instead, let's embrace God's plan for health in our lives- to eat nutrient dense, calorie rich foods tailor made for our bodies, to exercise correctly, and to be free from torment and worry in our minds.
We shouldn't do a program like Perfect Weight America or the Maker's Diet so that we can be the best that Hollywood or Milan says we should be. (Talk about fantasy!) We should follow these programs so that we can be the best that WE can be.
That's all God asks of us. That's all anyone can ask of us.
Is your current diet the best you can do? Are you spending too much time and money on foods and habits that lead to disease and heartache? Or are you spending too much time obsessing over calories and a lower weight?
If you answered yes to either of these questions, then keep tuning in to this series! Tomorrow I'll be sharing some exciting testimonies from people who had great success with Perfect Weight America.
And stay posted- because along with Garden of Life, I want to see you reach your body's perfect weight this year, and be the best you can be! Tomorrow, I'll be announcing an exciting giveaway to help you do just that, hosted by Garden of Life!
May you become the best version of YOU in this New Year! See you tomorrow!
Yesterday I told you about Jordan Rubin's awesome book, Perfect Weight America, and how I am so thrilled about it because I believe it can truly change many lives for the better!There is truly no better way to get in shape this New Year, and to stay healthy and in shape the rest of your life!
One of the things I love so much about the Perfect Weight America program is that it is tailor made for your body. The book takes into account your gender, height, build and body type, and even nutritional type (how your body processes certain foods, and which foods make your body gain weight or lose weight- everyone is different!) to determine YOUR optimal weight- not the optimal weight that the magazine at the grocery store says you should be.
To find your body's ideal weight, just go to Perfect Weight America's website. Scroll down until you see a button that says, "Signup Today." (Don't worry, it's totally, 100% free!)
Click on it, and it will ask you a series of questions. Answer these questions to find your body's optimal weight, and tune back in the rest of this week to find out how to get there!
With the New Year just behind us, we are all brimming with resolutions. For many, one at the top will be regaining control of our health, and for many that means losing weight.
It seems we Americans are always on a quest to lose weight. Part of this is good, because the Standard American Diet sets us up for unhealthy weight gain and tragic diseases, and part of it is bad because we look to Hollywood actors and supermodels for our standard of beauty.
Into this confusing quagmire of body image and health issues, entire Perfect Weight America, Jordan Rubin's awesome book that will set you straight once and for all regarding what you should be eating, and how to achieve and sustain YOUR body's perfect weight.
Not only will you reach your perfect weight, but you'll do it without starving yourself, without continuing on the American diet destined for illness and disease, and without serious confusion about which foods you should eat.
Sound too good to be true? It's not- because it's the Maker's Diet, tailor made for your body, for losing and maintaining a healthy weight. I just finished reading it recently, and I was so impressed that I had to tell you all about it, to help you finally achieve your body's perfect weight this New Year.
So join me over the next few days to find out how you can make 2011 a truly New Year-, and get healthy once and for all! (I'll also be announcing an exciting giveaway that will help you make this a reality- stay tuned!)
