Acai berries are a relatively newly discovered berry that has some healthy characteristics. The acai berry is high in anti-oxidants and really helps people loose weight quickly. There are lots of health advantages to acai berries, but they must be frozen right after harvest to make sure they retain thier potency. One of the major brands of acai suppliments is acai berry power 500. Lately, many talk show hosts have done profiles on the health benefits of acai. http://www.americaschoicetoday.com/Acai-Berry.html

I know of people that have easily lost 5 pounds a week on the Dr. Bernstein diet. Try to get a copy of it - maybe from a library.
Kudos to you for approaching this in such a mature and healthy way! Lowering your portions is a fantastic start, but you may want to reconsider the consistency of eating part. Eating multiple smaller portions is often the best way to lose weight because you re never getting to that point where you re really hungry...that s when most people tend to overeat or reach for an unhealthy quick fix. You should snack on healthy things like fruit and veggies, and keep those with you at all times so you re not tempted when you re on the road. I always have a granola bar or something healthy in my purse so I can avoid temptation. I also started tracking my food and that made a huge difference! By tracking every bite of food (including when you just grab a few nuts or a bite here, a sip here), you realize how little things add up and it helps to develop healthier habits. Here are some other good tips, I hope these help! Good luck to you! http://buzz.prevention.com/community/ste��
In determining a healthy appearance, feel, and lifestyle, simple bodyweight is not necessarily the best indicator. Especially if you start exercising when you have not previously had a routine, or if you suddenly increase your exercise regiment, you may not see a rapid change in weight. This is because as you exercise, your body undergoes muscular and neuronal growth, which may actually increase weight, offsetting any fat loss. This will likely be the case for the first 6-7 weeks or so if you are moving to a more healthy lifestyle that focuses more on exercise. You should slowly start to see more muscle tone at that point, and you WILL become leaner. More immediately, you she see improvement in strength and performance.Dieting is also a dangerous path to follow. Instead, focus on a healthy lifestyle that balances food and exercise. Lean meats and a lot of fruits and veggies will help with that. Try to eat no more than 20% or your daily caloric needs worth of fat in order to lose fatty mass. Especially in our society, carbohydrates often have more to do with weight gain that anything else, so make sure your carbohydrates are complex carbs (whole grains, stone ground, no white bread or rice, or as little as possible). Whole grains keep you more full longer and take longer for your body to digest. They do not create the spikes in blood glucose (BGL) that simple sugars, white flour, or starchy products will. This means that less insulin will be produced by your pancreas after each meal, and therefore less fat will be stored. Another positive effect is that is reduces your risk of diabetes and heart disease. Depending on your goals, your balance of calories will determine how your body changes. If you want to avoid gaining additional weight or lose weight, a good ratio would be something like 40% protein, 40% carbohydrates, and 20% fat. Also make sure to read the labels on any food you buy. They tell you much more than the advertisements like low fat on the front of the box. A long-term lifestyle change that you can maintain will be MUCH for effective that a diet (after dieting, your body tries to return to its original weight, which is very hard to combat).Your weight for your height is within the healthy range. If you want a good way to keep track of it, you can look up or calculate your Body Mass Index, or BMI. Keep in mind, however, that this only applies to people with average muscle mass. As muscle is more dense and heavy than fat, you may appear very lean and be very healthy, but have a BMI that falls into the overweight category. If you work out regularly, this is not unusual, and not necessarily bad. Remember, weight is a very loose guideline for overall health, and healthy weight varies from person to person.The big word for you to remember is commitment. It may take a while, but you should ultimately be very happy with your results, and you will stay that way instead of dieting and relapsing backward every time. Good luck!
