Waist Measurement is Key to Weight Control

A study recently published in the Lancet indicated that the size of the waist in relation to the hips is a much better indication of obesity than the BMI calculation, which measures body weight against height.
In other words, where the fat is stored is much more important than total body weight.
If the measurement of the waist in men is greater than .95 percent of their hip measurement, it is obesity and an indication of increased health risk. If the measurement of the waist in women is greater than .8 percent of their hip measurement, it is obesity and an indication of increased health risk.

If you would like to find an easy, simple way to reduce the size of your waist, just scroll down to my first newsletter. For best results do the exercises outlined in my letter and also have a general exercise program combined with proper nutrition. Proper nutrition means to eat no refined carbohydrates or glucose, but eat fruits, vegetables, lean protein, cold water fish, sardines, sprouted grain bread, whole grains, unsalted and unroasted almonds and brazil nuts and fiber. Cut the portions down by 25 percent of your usual amounts until you reach the desired weight and measurements. With the food outlined above you will have a diet that has all necessary nutrients for maximum health even with the calorie reductions.
