UNIQUE APPROACH: The hot new diet that worked for your neighbor may not even
come close to addressing the issues that drive your weight up or down. Because
body shape is an individual matter influenced by the interplay of genetics,
culture, and personal behavior, notions and feelings, Me & My Metabolism
focuses on the individual person. There is no generic fat that melts
and stays away because you eat fewer calories.
SHORT DESCRIPTION: Me & My Metabolism examines basal metabolic rate, assesses
total energy expenditure and evaluates eating style. Find your answers to
questions like ... Why do I eat the way I do? How much effort significantly
raises my activity level? Do I need to do something to balance calories eaten
with calories burned? All this and more.
DESCRIPTION: Understand the dynamics of your metabolic processes by balancing
the energy costs of life and the pursuit of happiness with daily caloric
consumption. The complex interactions between the food you eat, your level of
physical activity, and your baseline metabolic needs are clearly shown in terms
of calories and per cent of your calculated basal metabolic requirement. The
balance is summed up in terms of annual and weekly weight gain or loss.
Why do I eat like I do? What is it that triggers my need to eat? How can I
take control? Get off autopilot! Shed some light on the forces that can play
havoc with your health. Knowing what triggers your feeding frenzies leads to
creating weight control strategies that work for you. This Eating Style Self-
Assessment is derived from Sara Gilbert's book, The Psychology of Dieting.
How much exercise must I do to significantly raise my activity level? Maybe
none. The physical activity calculator shows you what it really takes to move
from a sedentary to an active lifestyle. You'll be surprised at how little
changes can make a big difference. Try sitting instead of sprawling on the
couch when you're watching the tube. Or how about leaving the car behind and
walking the 5 blocks to the quick mart? Research findings indicate there's no
statistically significant differences between the factorial method Me & My
Metabolism uses and clinical assessment methods like measuring oxygen
consumption using a respirometer or heart rate/energy expenditure regression
equations.
