The best food for dieting is fiber....

Benefits of a high-fiber diet

A high-fiber diet has many benefits, which include:

  • Prevents constipation. Dietary fiber increases the weight and size of your stool and softens it. A bulky stool is easier to pass, decreasing your chance of constipation. If you have loose, watery stools, fiber may also help to solidify the stool because it absorbs water and adds bulk to stool.
  • Lowers your risk of digestive conditions. A high-fiber diet may lower your risk of specific disorders, such as hemorrhoids, irritable bowel syndrome and the development of small pouches in your colon (diverticular disease).
  • Lowers blood cholesterol levels. Soluble fiber found in beans, oats, flaxseed and oat bran may help lower total blood cholesterol levels by lowering low-density lipoprotein, or "bad," cholesterol levels.
  • Controls blood sugar levels. Fiber, particularly soluble fiber, can slow the absorption of sugar, which for people with diabetes, can help improve blood sugar levels. A high-fiber diet may also reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
  • Aids in weight loss. High-fiber foods generally require more chewing time, which gives your body time to register when you're no longer hungry, so you're less likely to overeat. Also, a high-fiber diet tends to make a meal feel larger and linger longer, so you stay full for a greater amount of time. And high-fiber diets also tend to be less "energy dense," which means they have fewer calories for the same volume of food.
  • Uncertain effect on colorectal cancer. Evidence that dietary fiber reduces colorectal cancer is mixed — some studies show benefit, some show nothing and even some show greater risk. If you're concerned about preventing colorectal cancer, adopt or stick with a colon cancer screening regimen. Regular testing for and removal of colon polyps can prevent colon cancer.

Motivation comes first

Motivation was divided into two types ,that is, self motivation and motivation which comes from others. Self motivation is actually has 80% influence toward us and others comes the 20% influence. I believe, self motivation can be relates to our confident level. Most of the motivated people are confident personel. Hence, to become a confident person, you must first change your self motivation rate. If its 20%, then the bright future might not be yours.

Here is some quotes that i find relevant and nice to be stamp on this blog .

"Motivating Moments strives to continually offer positive words of encouragement to help give you the self-confidence and self-esteem you need to empower, motivate and inspire yourself and others. The breath of information that others have shared will help you see that nothing is impossible at MotivateUs.com.

Believe in Yourself - Believe in Others!
"

There has 3 reason... why do we always lost our motivation ,that is:
  1. Lack of confidence - If you don’t believe you can succeed, what’s the point in trying?
  2. Lack of focus - If you don’t know what you want, do you really want anything?
  3. Lack of direction - If you don’t know what to do, how can you be motivated to do it?

Whatever things you do, do believe in yourself and put your belief in the higher state in you. you'll find the way...

Alone...

Life seems so dull if you are alone....
Life seems so dark when you are alone...
(Sounds like lonely...)
But it seems so relieve if you are alone....

However...
Alone and Lonely totally are different..
Alone sometimes is better...
Lonely filled with negative...
Alone sometimes can cause us to be lonely.......
That's relate them together...
