Weight Control Experts Suggest CalorieKing Online Record-Keeping System for Losing Weight and Keeping it Off in 2010
(PRWEB) January 5, 2010 -- Losing weight tops most New Year's resolution top ten lists. But according to Dr. Lewis Pincus, Dallas weight control and obesity expert, once one is resolved to lose weight and keep it off, success has very little to do with desire, backbone or courage.
"What it takes to achieve lasting weight loss (http://www.calorieking.com/program/?utm_source=prweb&utm_medium=press+release&utm_campaign=januarysale&utm_content=weight+control+experts+suggest+using+caloriekings+online+record+keeping+system+to+lose+weight+and+keep+it+off+in+2010) is a system and patience. The media and weight loss marketing give the impression that gaining weight reflects a personal shortcoming, but in fact, it really comes down to knowledge. Whether you're a banker, a teacher or a stay-at-home parent, you can bring management skills from work and other parts of your life to body management for successful weight loss," said Pincus.
“The key to any weight management system is record-keeping,” said Pincus. “Scientific research shows that controlling weight without record-keeping offers zero percent chance of success. Five is the ‘magic number’ representing the number of days per week that record-keeping is the most effective, however even three days a week can result in significant progress.”
For his widely-known weight control program, Pincus uses the weight management program offered at CalorieKing.com (http://www.calorieking.com?utm_source=prweb&utm_medium=press+release&utm_campaign=januarysale&utm_content=weight+control+experts+suggest+using+caloriekings+online+record+keeping+system+to+lose+weight+and+keep+it+off+in+2010) because of the program's scientific approach, tutorials and interactive tools which provide patients with immediate feedback to keep them on track to reach their goals. When clients input the food they have consumed and the amount of exercise they have completed the online diary instantly converts the data into calories so they can see how they're doing in hitting their daily calorie target. They can also use the diary to plan meals and exercise regimens that will help them reach their calorie count goal.
Clients 'drag and drop' food into their personal diary from the immense food database (http://www.calorieking.com/foods/?utm_source=prweb&utm_medium=press+release&utm_campaign=januarysale&utm_content=weight+control+experts+suggest+using+caloriekings+online+record+keeping+system+to+lose+weight+and+keep+it+off+in+2010), which breaks down more than 55,000 homemade, brand-name and popular restaurant foods into calories and nutrients.
"Easy-to-use online tools make it simple for my patients to stay ahead of calories and exercise while the tutorials give them a good understanding of the science of weight control and their relationship with food. And, the online community is a great source for support," said Pincus.
On the professional side, the CalorieKing.com system allows healthcare and fitness experts (http://www.calorieking.com/program/?utm_source=prweb&utm_medium=press+release&utm_campaign=januarysale&utm_content=weight+control+experts+suggest+using+caloriekings+online+record+keeping+system+to+lose+weight+and+keep+it+off+in+2010) like personal trainers, dieticians, nutritionists and physicians check client or patient progress. They can monitor individual and group logs and summaries through the CalorieKing Pro dashboard to track a variety of data, such as nutrients and calories taken in and exercise expended, along with ongoing weight updates.
"CalorieKing works because it provides what you need for life-long weight control: a plan, a place to practice and support. Quick fixes and fad diets don't work because you may lose the weight but it will almost always come back," said Pincus. "It's better to lose the healthy way at about a pound a week. Good record-keeping makes that possible. We have a saying in weight control; small steps can make big miracles. Take small steps, forget quick-fix diets. In the long-run, you'll be healthier and in control of your weight."
