What's Ahead?

Dear Friends,

I hope your Christmas was one for the memory book.

Ours was especially nice.

My cousin Jayvee (5 years old) singing some spanish Christmas eve...


We had a lot of fun spending the day together as a family, doing our "Secret Santa" gift exchanges. Being Catholic, it was really nice to take both Adriel Jr and Ashley to midnight mass (although they were both in and out of sleep the whole time LOL!:)

Anyways, a friend sent me personalized card through "snail mail" that I received December 26... it was through a unique service called Send Out Cards.

It's great when someone takes the time to send you a "physical" note of thanks, an update of their life or "just because" and not just some flashy, electronic email card.

Being in the service business, clients love it when I send them letters of encouraging words.

I picked up this quote from SOC (Send Out Cards), it's the law of attraction, here it is:

"You Deserve Exactly What You Send Out" Isn't that a neat quote?

So, please watch the entire video to fully understand this concept and tell me your thoughts about this unique service which is also tied in with a home-based "profit-center" opportunity.

You can learn all about it below:

Diabetes and Exercise

Brought to you by Attraction Tips eZine which can be subscribed to at www.adrielyapana.com.

By Adriel Yapana, CPT

There are two main types of diabetes, type I and type II. Type I
diabetes is characterized by the pancreas making too little or no
insulin. An individual with diabetes type I will have to inject
insulin throughout the day in order to control glucose levels. Type II
diabetes, also known as adult onset diabetes, is characterized by the
pancreas not producing enough insulin to control glucose levels or the
cells not responding to insulin. When a cell does not respond to
insulin, it is known as insulin resistance. When a subject is
diagnosed with type II diabetes, exercise and weight control are
prescribed as measures to help with insulin resistance. If this does
not control glucose levels, then medication is prescribed. The risk
factors for type II diabetes include: inactivity, high cholesterol,
obesity, and hypertension. Inactivity alone is a very strong risk
factor that has been proven to lead to diabetes type II. Exercise will
have a positive effect on diabetes type II while improving insulin
sensitivity while type I cannot be controlled be an exercise program.
Over 90% of individuals with diabetes have type II.

Exercise causes the body to process glucose faster, which lowers blood
sugar. The more intense the exercise, the faster the body will utilize
glucose. Therefore it is important to understand the differences in
training with type I and type II diabetes. It is important for an
individual who has diabetes to check with a physician before beginning
an exercise program. When training with a diabetic, it is important to
understand the dangers of injecting insulin immediately prior to
exercise. An individual with type I diabetes injecting their normal
amount of insulin for a sedentary situation can pose the risk of
hypoglycemia or insulin shock during exercise. General exercise
guidelines for type I are as follows: allow adequate rest during
exercise sessions to prevent high blood pressure, use low impact
exercises and avoid heavy weight lifting, and always have a supply of
carbohydrates nearby. If blood sugar levels get too low, the
individual may feel shaky, disoriented, hungry, anxious, become
irritable or experience trembling. Consuming a carbohydrate snack or
beverage will alleviate these symptoms in a matter of minutes.

Before engaging in exercise, it is important for blood sugar levels to
be tested to make sure that they are not below 80 to 100 mg/dl range
and not above 250 mg/dl. Glucose levels should also be tested before,
during, after and three to five hours after exercise. During this
recovery period (3-5 hours after exercise), it is important for
diabetics to consume ample carbohydrates in order to prevent
hypoglycemia.

Exercise will greatly benefit an individual with type II diabetes
because of its positive effects on insulin sensitivity. Proper
exercise and nutrition are the best forms of prevention for type II
diabetics. It is important for training protocols to be repeated
almost daily to help with sustaining insulin sensitivity. To prevent
hypoglycemia, progressively work up to strenuous activity.

As with individuals with type I diabetes, carbohydrates should also be
present during training to assist in raising blood sugar levels if the
individual becomes low.

How to fail at your fat loss and fitness goals in '07?

How to fail at your fat loss and fitness goals in '07?

Hi Gang!-

10+ year fitness expert and fat loss wizard Rob Poulos recently
received an email from someone who wanted to give him a piece of
his mind regarding his Fat Burning Furnace system, and was
reminded about perhaps the main difference between people that
succeed with their fat loss and fitness goals and those that
perpetually fail.

CLICK HERE

Before I tell you his answer, I'd like to let you in on some of
the other habits of those who regularly fail in their attempts
for lean and healthy body...Rob teaches his Fat Burning Furnace
students how to avoid these habits:

-They don't start today, they'll get to it tomorrow

-They are very strict about the diet or program they're on

-They punish themselves if they "cheat" on their diet

-They try to do everything themselves

-They evaluate their progress by the scale alone

-They blame their genetics on their poor results

OK, these are just some of the highly defective habits of people
that regularly fail with their fat loss and fitness goals.  Do
you see some of these habits in you?  If so, give yourself a
kick in the pants and get rid of them now...you will have a
tough time succeeding with these n.asty habits stuck to you.

Now, back to Rob's original message...this person that emailed
him told all about why his system won't work for her...she
metioned these reasons:

- She didn't have the money, and thought it was too much
- She already knew all about how to lose fat and gain muscle
- She told me she doesn't like getting stuff on the internet

...and more.  So guess what Rob told her.  He told her that if
she didn't think his system would work for her, then it
wouldn't.  He also told her the reasons she gave him have
nothing to do with Rob, but everything to do with her.

Rob doesn't know this person, but he can already tell she is
never going to succeed with her fat loss and fitness goals...all
she demonstrated to him and me is that she is good at coming up
with excuses to stay fat and unhealthy.

So that's the bottom line, this woman is a talker, a know it
all, not a doer.  and that's the real difference between people
who w.in and people who lose.  Until she becomes a doer, she can
forget about it w.inning.

You'd be surprised how many emails Rob tells me he gets with
this same tired old story of excuses.  But it's proof positive
that you need to flip on the switch in your head that gets you
off your duff if you're doing too much talking and not enough
doing.

So get out there and make it happen!

CLICK HERE

By the way, Rob's limited holiday release of The Fat Burning
Furnace proven fitness system is going great, and he's sold over
half of the available systems at the heavily discounted offer
with the triple garantee period.

Remember, on January 1st at midnight EST, the price will be back
up, and higher than before with the hardcopy version of the
system, so if you really want to be able to lose that stubborn
fat permanently, you'll want to check it out now...right here:

CLICK HERE

Happy Holidays,

Adriel Yapana

P.S. Don't forget you can do what a few of Rob's other students
are doing and give the FBF system as a gift this holiday season
to those you really care about.  What's better than the gift of
health and fitness for life?

A few seconds of prevention...

Hey Guys-

Be safe when out of town or at your local community...

Gone in four seconds...



Have a happy and safe holiday!

9 Ways on How to Be a Purposeful-Driven Weight Manager

Copyright 2006 Adriel Yapana

Whatever we learn to do, we learn by actually doing it. People come to be builders, for instance, by building, and harp players by playing the harp. In the same way, by doing just acts we come to be just. By doing self-controlled acts, we come to be self-controlled, and by doing brave acts we become brave.

-Aristotle
Nicomachaen Ethics


Look Hard At Yourself. Honestly appraise who you are, face your insecurities and your fears. Living honestly is a matter of implementing conscience, strengths, passion, wants and needs. Sometimes looking at yourself can be extremely painful but once you look hard, you can decide to change yourself. Spend some time in personal reflection, and ask “What is really motivating me to lose weight and how can I use this to give my life more purpose and meaning?” It may be because you want to have the strength and energy to play with you kids. It may be, you feel sluggish that you cannot even climb up a flight of stairs without gasping for air. Dig deep and capture your thoughts.


Write a Personal Mission statement. From the idea above. Write down your meaningful “WHY” behind your weight loss drive You can include your goals. Be specific and clear. Write down what you want on paper and keep this near you and read it often.

Be Committed. Successful weight managers make time to exercise and eat right because they are committed. It’s an excuse if you say “I don’t have the time” What your really saying is “I want to, but I don’t have the commitment.”

Listen Positively. You and I will get an “education” from the media whether you like it or not. You can, however, choose your noise. Make it a choice and listen to positive, educational and motivational sources through audio CD’s or books and make this a part of your life….even if it’s 15 minutes of your day. Listen while you drive in your car. You can get great audio sources from Success University by clicking HERE.

Get a Network that Works. Surround yourself with encouraging, action oriented group of people. People who are striving to meet a similar goals like yours. You can find a friend locally, join a weight loss center or maybe meet people through a discussion board or online group. Got it? Good!

Plan Your Nutrition. Make it a priority to eat for nourishment and not for pleasure. You’re your homework and make a grocery list of foods you intend to buy before you head out to the market. Keep a journal of your diet for at least 3 weeks when just starting your food “lifestyle” plan. Writing ingrains and makes conscious what you should and should not be putting in your mouth.

Drink Plenty Of Water. I run into clients who prefer to drink diet drinks and sodas but they will help their body and metabolism much better and effectively with just, good, clean water. You cannot drink enough of it.

You Can’t Do “Mouse or Couch Potato” Unplug your TV or Internet connection and get moving! Your calories don’t get burned up on their own…you must get active. Successful weight managers put extra movement activities like walking, hiking, dancing in their day.

Do You Get the Picture? “Picturing yourself” several times a day. I am a big believer in practicing the behavior you are trying to integrate into your life through mental movies. By visualizing and imagining your “preferred behavior of choice” bridges the conscious and subconscious mind. When people start committing themselves to mental rehearsals often enough, the pictures become a creative force in their own life. I’ve done this many times…and great things start happening in my life. It’s the law of attraction. I want you, however, to set a huge goal of visualizing your mental movie in segments of 20 seconds in length at least 100 times a day. This is approximately 20 minutes a day. You can spare 20 minutes a day can’t you? I guarantee you this idea alone will change your life!

You have that seed of greatness within you – make things happen!

Success in Weight Loss Has One Very Important Key

Brought to you by Adriel's Attraction Tips eZine which can be subscribed to at www.adrielyapana.com


By Adriel Yapana, Certified Fitness Professional

How many times have you tried to diet/lose weight in the past?

How many times have you had some initial success only to fall short of your goals?

How many times have you achieved your initial goals, only to see them fly away faster than you were able to enjoy the fruits of your labor?

Why does this happen?

In most cases, the answer is simple. You've failed one test... This is a difficult test. This test I like to call consistent persistence.

Sometimes, you will be missing other essential components. You need to also include a variety of other things that will make the consistent persistence useful. If you are consistently persistent in doing the wrong things, you will still fail. So before we get in to the final key, let's review the other essential components.

Successful dieting and or weight loss should always be geared towards a total lifestyle change that you intend to be permanent. If you cannot healthily sustain the changes for an indefinite period, it probably isn't the right diet for you. Reasonable exceptions would include medically necessary emergency weight loss, with a view to changing the program once the crisis management was concluded.

If you are trying to lose weight, you should have a goal of maintaining that weight loss for at least five years. How many of the fad diets out there today could withstand a five year test? Not many.

With the diet changes (that can be maintained for five or more years in a healthy fashion), it is essential to increase your energy expenditure.

You can increase this energy expenditure with a variety of strategies. Some of those include supplements that boost your metabolic rate. As we have seen with the ephedra issue, it isn't always the safest choice. A safer way is timing your activity to boost your energy expenditure throughout the day. One of those ways is to exercise early in the morning before eating, and then waiting for a period of time after having concluded your exercise before you eat. If you have blood sugar regulation difficulties such as diabetes or hypoglycemia, this may not be the route for you to take.

Additionally, because your body will accommodate to any exercise regimen after a period of time, you will need to vary your programs.

Water consumption at adequate levels is a must in any successful plan. This will help to wash away the waste products and toxins that the body will release as you burn away the fat (which does store some toxins).

Adequate supplementation with good quality vitamins and minerals is also very important so that your body has the micronutrients it needs to drive its metabolic processes.

Ensuring that your body does not think that it is in a state of famine is also important. While it is a good idea to decrease your overall caloric intake, you want to make sure that you feed you body on a regular basis, so that it knows that food is still available and is coming soon. Six small meals a day is generally a good idea. Your choice of calorie sources is also important. For many health reasons, it is good to avoid highly processed products. Vine ripened, organic produce is also a great idea.

Another way to help yourself succeed and give your body a greater variety of micronutrients and enzymes is to eat a large variety of foods. Our bodies haven't yet really adapted to the advent of agriculture, let alone a few monocrops. Variety, variety, and more variety is a great idea.

Ensure that your rest is adequate and of good quality. If you do not rest adequately, all of your body's processes can be adversely affected.

Take time for yourself. Meditate or pray. This will help you on so many different levels that there isn't enough time or space to go into it.

Set yourself reasonable, attainable goals with specific time frames. If you don't achieve them, reset the goals and review your plan. Maybe the goal was unrealistic or the plan was faulty. Entertain both possibilities. If you don't know how to tell, enlist professional help.

Measure your progress. Measuring in inches and energy is a better way to evaluate how you are doing rather than by pounds. Also very useful and a good measure of health factors, is to record how your body fat percentages change (for better or for worse).

So now you have the basic principles down. While a three month interval is a great way to look at progress points, if you stop there, you have failed. You need consistent persistence. At every goal point, re-evaluate your plan, refine it, work it and then repeat the process. If you need a holiday from your routine, schedule it, don't improvise or you are likely to fall out of the routine and have a difficult time getting back into it.

Work it, re-evaluate it, measure your progres, and repeat.

Consistent persistence is the key to your success. This success must also be built on sound principles and be realistic, sustainable and varied.

Don't let yourself be discouraged, keep at it and fight to maintain your consistent persistence because this is where success lives.

Dedicated to your success,

3 Things To Keep You In the Diet Winner Circle

Hey guys! It's Adriel here from Adriel Yapana.com with another Attraction Tip.


3 Things To Keep You In the Diet Winner Circle

Copyright 2006 Adriel Yapana

I saw the movie “Déja Vu” this weekend. What a thriller! I’m not going to spoil the movie for you , however, the movie had a theme about going back in time. Imagine if you could go back one week back. What would you do differently about your eating habits that would have put you in looking and feeling better about yourself today?

Here are 3 tips to help you stay on track with your diet goals.

• Plan your meals and “consume” your plan! Shop from a list. Cook foods in advance. Stick to your meal plan. Allow only a ten percent margin for “off plan eating”. That means, if you eat 5 meals a day, times 7 days a week, that’s 35 meals. That gives us 3.5 percent margin. That’s 3.5 percent of “off plan” meals/snacks allowed. Those “off plan” meals should be reasonable. I am not taking eating a whole pepperoni pizza at a single sitting.

• Watch those portions. Assuming that weight loss is the goal. You should be on a moderate to low carbohydrate food plan. Have a lean protein, fibrous carbohydrate and a starchy carbohydrate at each meal. Here’s a simple way to figure out how much of a portion size to eat at. First, gauge your portion size with your protein requirements. Men should eat a least one 6-8 ounce serving of complete, lean (order lean beef, take out the skin off the turkey or chicken and stay away from any type of meat too marbled in fat) protein at every meal. Your fibrous and starchy carbs should be about the same size at your lean portion requirement at every meal. Simple!

• Don’t eat like the “fast and furious”. Don’t eat on the run, while driving, or while watching television. Eat at a table or a designated, relaxed setting. Take your time to chew and help your body digest your food. Chew your foods several times before swallowing and simply enjoy the moment. Experience (taste, texture, tongue) what you eat is important and when you are eating, “be there”.

As you can see, keeping your diet in check does not have to be daunting. Enjoy your day and Bon appetité.

Stay in the Winner Circle!

Simple Tips to Lose Fat

How to Maintain a Healthy Weight Free Yourself from Calling Foods "Good" Or "Bad"

A survey I once read asked: Do you see apples, carrots and wheat bread as "good" foods, while hamburger, fries, cake and chocolate as "bad" foods?" If you agree, you're definitely not alone -- over 70% of Americans categorize food this way.

With the many kinds of foods and snacks out there, and one may have certain nutritional values than the other, it doesn't mean that it's "good" for you food. I believe that all foods can fit in your life and work for you. Call it a healthy lifestyle not a diet, because it all comes does to having moderation. Learn to portion control your foods. Examples would be bag half of your order or restaurant meal and save it for tomorrow's lunch. Take time to really learn food portion without measuring units, eye balling food sizes.

Some examples: 1/3 cup of rice is equivalent to a size of a golf ball, a 3-ounce piece of lean mean is a size of a deck of cards and half a cup of chopped fruit is about the size of a tennis ball.

Next time you handle your groceries and put them away -quietly ask yourself "Is this currently ingrained in your mind as a "bad" or "good" food? What led you to that belief? What experiences - friends, family and their current "fad" diet? Look out for garbled messages. Ask yourself "What would my grocery bag appear like if I chose foods that are satisfying to me?

Take a minute - just for today and pay attention to the number of times you called your own food choices. Ask yourself if there was something instantly "bad" or "good" about the food, or is it the environment you're in that makes it the "right" choice for you? In the future, let the combination of your physiology (physical hunger), the joy of eating and health all handle your choice. Say to yourself "I can enjoy all my favorite foods in moderation."

With YOU in Mind,

Geovanni Derice, a Top-Notch, NYC Fitness Professional interviewed by Adriel Yapana for Adriel's Attraction Tips eZine which can be subscribed to at www.adrielyapana.com



(Geovanni and I in Midtown Manhattan)




YAPANA: Hi Geo! First off, thank you for taking time to anwser some questions for the Attraction Tips eZine. This will be a brief interview. I want to cover a couple of key points about your services and about what to look for when seeking a trainer.

DERICE: My pleasure Adriel.

YAPANA: Do you have a fitness market niche?

DERICE: Actually I do Adriel. I specialize in working with busy women between the ages of 21 and 60 who have very little time to workout but want to look and feel better than they've ever felt or looked before, all in the comfort of their own home. In the time we're living in, who has time to wait for a cardio machine for 60 minutes or even take an hour commuting to and from the gym. If you look at that alone that's already 2 hours. I don't know about you but the people I work with don't have 2 hours to waste, thus why I do what I do.

YAPANA: What should someone look for in a personal trainer and why?

DERICE: To be honest there's been a recent buzz about people hiring personal trainers who are no where near qualified to work with people. If you're looking for a personal trainer, there are some very important questions you need to know. Number one is are they certified and if they are by who. The top certification organizations out there for personal trainers are National Strength and Conditioning Association(NSCA), National Academy of Sports Medicine(NASM), the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), and also American Council of Exercise(ACE). I'd pretty much stick to the first three if I was recommending someone pick a personal trainer. Another issue is insurance. Is your trainer covered. Trainers who work for a gym is often covered by the gym, but trainers who are independant contractors often have to provide their own insurance. Lastly you want to know who has the personal trainer worked with and does he have a portfolio or a book of testimonials proving that people have worked with him and are not only satisfied with the services that the trainer provided, but are blown away. Some trainers will post testimonials of people just in general and that can be fine but if they provide emails or ways to contact those people in the testimonials that in itself adds credibility.

YAPANA: If you want to give someone advice (general population) a
kick-start to a healthier lifestyle, what advice would you gives them?

DERICE: The best advice I could give them is to just get started. Do not wait for the perfect situation to start making a change. Many will wait till January 1st to change their lifestyle or others wait till Monday to start a new lifestyle. Forget that, take control of your life right now. If you start now you could lose 8 lbs before New Year's is even here. Some other great tips is hiring a qualified personal trainer to help jump start your fitness program and create a foundation. Have a diary where you can write that the way you feel when you eat and how you feel about your workouts. Lastly have a support group. Having people who will encourage you, motivate you to succeed is extremely important. You can find people just like you online in fitness forums, message boards or even ask your trainer to set one up for you. There's just countless tips that you can use to jump start your healthy lifestyle but it all begins with the mindset that you want to get it done and get it done now. Life is too short, it really is and when you decide today, right now to change it, you won't regret it.

YAPANA: Thanks Geo, is there anything else you'd like to say or share with the audience?


DERICE: Well, I would like to truly say that things have to change in the world. The world is getting bigger and bigger and it's pretty sad. To think that many children will grow up, get married and not have their parents at their wedding because of heart diseases that could have been preventable is truly sad. I'm on a mission to make people happy again and that starts from within. It starts by making the commitment to change the way you think. Changing the way you are on the inside will drastically change the way you look on the outside. If anyone would like to read more about me, the best thing you can probably do for your life would be to go to www.4evertoned.com/newsletter.html
That's where I share my insider tips to success and I really want for everyone reading this to have the opportunity to achieve their absolute best. I hope Adriel you bring me back on here so we can continue to help people achieve bodies beyond their wildest dreams.

Q: I still need to lose those extra 10 pounds from having my baby 16 months ago but really I am at an age (nearing 30) that I am concerned less about appearance and more about my overall health. Old fashion methods are great...Now I just need some old fashion motivation! I'm getting there!

I want to be around for the long haul with my kids. School, house, husband, kids...life is just too fast and I have NO time really to do anything but term papers and reading! BUT I will be finishing up my Master's degree in May and want to really start focusing on my health. Right now I know I need help figuring out what that means for me. I wasn't sure really what it is you do. I just know your passions are in the area of health.

A:
What you have are some wonderful goals. You may need to spend more time and ask yourself "why is this goal so important to me?".

If appearance is not much of a concern then you should work on functional fitness training. This means training with a purpose... one that should take a positive effect on the activity of one's life. Conditioning for everyday life; carrying kids or lifting boxes, turning wrenches, pushing a wheel barrel or anything else applicable to your daily life or work environment.

Many women, like yourself, lack motivation or just don't like to go to the gym or go for a run (Are you an exercise-hater?)

You can work out everyday without lifting dumbbells or jogging. How do you do this? Movement. Walking to the stores, play a game of tag with your kids, put on some music and dance, skip elevators and take the stairs instead. The key is to get 40-50 minutes of activity every day. Think: some form of movement everyday:)


Keep on keepin' on!

Are you mature....

Spiritually?

copyright 2006 Adriel Yapana

There are two steps to spiritual maturity.

The first step to spiritual maturity is accepting where you are, who you are and what you are, as perfect, right here, right now.

If you’re feeling miserable, surrender yourself and accept that life is perfect. Situations have happened in your life for a reason and it serves you. Let me repeat that. Situations have happened in your life for a reason and it serves you. Embrace it.

Be open to accept that YOU MAY HAVE NOT BECOME THE PERSON YOU NEEDED TO BE in order to attract the things you wish into your life.

So, to have more in your already perfect life, you simply need to change.

Naturally, the second part is easy. You can be, do and have those results you are seeking by choosing different actions. And since the universe knows you are open to listen, answers will start flowing your way.

By re-creating yourself through your actions… you create your own destiny.

Live fully alive,
