Trying to Lose Face Fat? I know this situation sucks because my face is one of the first places I gain fat. I start to see my double chin and anxiety hits me. Some people or information you will find will suggest that you can reduce face fat by doing a series of exercises or by buying this product. Yes, I’ve even seen devices that go under your chin and supposedly by pressing you head down on this spring-loaded product, you will burn face fat. Unfortunately, all of this is a crock. The only real way to lose fact fat is to get your body fat to a low enough percentage that your face fat goes with it.

So what is the percentage that gets rid of face fat?

Well it differs for each person. For me, I have to get below 10% body fat before I don’t have more chins than…well, you know the joke. But in order to reduce your body fat percentage to a low enough number that you don’t have face fat, you will have to follow a diet that creates a calorie deficit. In other words, you have to eat fewer calories than you burn daily. To determine what this number is for you, check out my Metabolic Rate Calculator on my website.

This handy little calculator will tell you how many calories you need to eat if you want to burn a pound of fat a week. Then, you can take that information and plan to eat that number of calories or fewer. Once you lose enough body fat, your face fat will go with it. This is the only real way to lose face fat – other than expensive surgery to remove excess fat.

So are there any exercises you can do?

Exercise certainly comes into play here as well. The more you exercise, the more you create this calorie deficit because you are adding to the calories that you burn daily. An excellent exercise to do is any one that you will stick with. For me, swimming is the bee’s knees. For you it may be running or elliptical trainer. 

But to help you lose face fat the fastest, I’ll let you in on a little secret. Use interval training. An example of interval training would be running fast for a minute and then running an easy page for two minutes. That three-minute period is an interval. You can apply this to any cardiovascular exercise and it kicks the pants off of regular, boring cardio. In fact, studies have shown that cardiovascular interval training keeps your heart rate elevated for several hours after you finish your workout. This means you burn fat for longer, even after you are done exercising.

So that’s it – the real deal on how to lose face fat. I’m sorry to say there is no such thing as spot reduction, but by reducing your body fat percentage you can lose face fat and burn fat in other trouble areas at the same time.

The prognosis of Pleural Mesothelioma is determined with not one but several factors. The detection of cancer at the early stage usually leads to a favourable prognosis and can have a vast impact on the expectancy of the patient. Mesothelioma, like other forms of cancer, tends to have seriously limited choices of treatment when diagnosed at a later stage and prognosis is even compromised most of the time.

Black lung disease is literally making the miners’ lungs black and obtained from constant inhalation of coal dust. The effects of black lung disease are long term and can even cause death. Its reaction to accumulated dust can appear and even worsen during your exposure or even after the inhalation.

Factors

The general health condition of the patient is the most significant factor that influences the prognosis. Mesothelioma diagnosed at an early stage will be able to go through the treatments easier than those who are older, and those with existing conditions. According to studies, persons aged older than 55 are at a higher risk and are more likely to occur to men than women.

The next consideration would be the extent of the metastasis. If the cancer has not yet metastasized to other parts of the body, patient are likely to have several treatment options that will help increase the person’s prognosis. Poor prognosis are likely to be in patients that are experiencing difficulty in breathing, having chest pains, cannot carry out daily tasks, weight loss and high level of LDH (lactate dehydrogenase). These are usually indications that the cancer is already on its later stages.

Prognosis for patients who exhibits these symptoms is usually present from six to twelve months. However, persons who are not having these signs will normally have more than a year.

Ways That May Help Improve Prognosis

Stage I patients with Pleural Mesothelioma can opt for a surgery called extrapleural pneumonectomy. This surgery is only offered to patients that are generally in good health. The surgery will remove the affected lung and the lining of the wall of the chest, pericardium and diaphragm. This approach is highly recommended for patients affected with epithelioid cell plerual mesothelioma.

For those patients on the latter stages with black lung disease, an attempt for pleuroctomy can be performed to help increase prognosis. This medical treatment relieves the pain without having to cure the cause of the suffering since it will control the buildup of fluids in the mesothelium or sac. This does not cure, but it can take the pain away and any pressure on the lung.

Survival Rate

As in other lung diseases, the back lung disease is also bleak and narrow. After the diagnosis, there are cancer patients who live for five years or even more. This is called the five-year-survival rate, and the survival rate for this is about 10%. We still need to find out if there’s more since these figures come from five years ago. Since treatment and technology have been continually improving, there are chances to improve the survival rate for patients with Mesothelioma and black lung disease.

There are more compelling stories about survivors that are living, and they are willing to tell their stories. This provides hope for other patients under treatment process. Since prognosis may differ depending on cell types, any patient can always hope for a different and longer life expectancy.

ExFuze Seven + is the brain child of brothers Dan and Rick Cotton. They had found out about the power of botanicals from when their father was terminally ill requiring surgery in the hospital. After numerous failed attempts to make their fathers better with conventional medicine, their father's doctor recommended something he had heard helped some other patients recover when medicine had not been as effective. They agreed to let the doctor give their father a cocktail of botanicals. To their amazement, he had recovered well enough to go through surgery.

How is Exfuze Seven + Different than the rest?

There are so many called "Super Juices" on the market right now that contain one or two of these powerful botanicals in them. The down side of these juices is they cost A LOT of money and they taste awful! ExFuze Seven + incorporates Seven of these powerful botanicals for an outstanding price. We've also found that many of these juices are made from juice concentrate and are not easily absorbed into the body. Independent studies were conducted with these products and with ExFuze Seven +, the results is that Seven + was shown in lab tests to be the most directly absorbed into the body and health benefits were more readily achievable. But do not take our word for it! Hope you enjoyed the review.

Many women with PCOS can correct most of their health challenges by losing as little as 7% to 10% of their body weight. But the metabolic complexity of PCOS can make weight loss a struggle. Some studies suggest women with PCOS have to work 25% harder to use up the same amount of stored fat-as-energy as lean women do. Self-hypnosis at home is an effective and health supportive tool that women with PCOS can use for achieving lasting weight loss.

Self-hypnosis is a way to learn new behaviors quickly and easily. Losing weight and more importantly, keeping it off, requires learning new habits. Self-hypnosis is a safe, enjoyable way to speed up your learning process. It allows you to see immediate results, which further increases your interest in learning. It turns out that what you spend your time thinking about has a powerful effect on what you actually do, and what results you get from your behaviors. What you expect to happen has a lot of influence on what you end up experiencing.

Ninety percent of people who lose weight regain what they lost, plus more- that statistic is well known to lifelong dieters and dreaded by, well, ninety percent of us. If you have reached the point (again and again) that you are ready to lose weight, (again), supporting your efforts with self-hypnosis can be the key to permanent success..

There is a group of people who lose significant amounts of weight, and never regain it. That ten percent are people who have learned how to maintain a significant weight loss for years. They have certain features in common:

They all eat less than they did to get fat;

They all exercise regularly, averaging an hour of activity most days.

They all keep a close eye on the scales, regularly checking in with the reality they see there.

Hypnosis, or more specifically, self-hypnosis, can help you learn, and ENJOY, these behaviors, too. The first two behaviors translate to that common-sense ‘just eat well and exercise’ mantra that has frustrated millions who try and fail regularly to do just that. The third element- that regular reality check of the scales- hints at the secret to breaking the failure pattern that plagues most dieters.

People who pay attention learn to connect the dots. “When I behave this way, I get these results; when I behave that way, I get different results.” Keeping a closer eye on your bathroom scale as you lose weight and especially as you transition to your healthy life-long diet, will reinforce the learning you are doing about what behaviors give you which results. Medical science is looking at how we learn to shape our experiences and our behaviors. “The idea that perceptions can be manipulated by expectations is fundamental to the study of cognition”, said Michael I. Posner, an emeritus professor of neuroscience at the University of Oregon and expert on attention. “But now we’re really getting at the mechanisms.”

Hypnosis is a process of reaching a state of deep relaxation in which your ability to learn is greatly enhanced. It is a powerful process and one that has the potential to be misused. Self-hypnosis, on the other hand, is a wonderful tool that you control for your own best interests.

Recent studies of brain function of people who are highly susceptible to hypnosis show that when they act on the suggestions made during hypnosis, their brains show profound changes in how they process information. The suggestions actually change how people interpret what is true about what they see, smell, hear, taste and touch. Hypnosis can change a person’s perception of reality. So, if you stand on the scale and see 150 pounds and think “I am fat!”, you teach yourself, and you believe, that you are a fat person. If you see the number 150 on your scale and you think “I am a person who is losing fat” (especially if you saw 154 on the scale a week ago!) you are more likely to believe that and in fact act like a person who is losing weight. And so, you do.

Hypnosis has been famously used for questionable entertainment. A hypnotist induces a trance or relaxation state in a volunteer and makes suggestions that the hypnotized person receives as a description of what is- of the truth. So when the suggestion is that you will cluck like a chicken- if you are a person who is willing at some level to cluck on stage, you will delight your audience with chicken behaviors. The idea that you do so involuntarily is in question.  There is no proof that a hypnotized person will behave in ways that are against their values, or against their will. But if you are willing to be an entertainer (get up on stage, as every as-yet unhypnotized volunteer chooses to do)- then you will be open to clucking once there, if that is the suggested entertainment you provide.

Even with little research into how it works, hypnosis has been used in medicine since the 1950’s to treat pain and, more recently, as a treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, irritable bowel syndrome and eating disorders. In the 19th century, doctors in India successfully used hypnosis as anesthesia, even for limb amputations. When ether became available, hypnosis was no longer used.

Brain scientists are still not exactly sure what the hypnotic state is. It may simply be a natural form of deep concentration in which you become oblivious to distractions in the room while focusing on your thoughts.  Now, according to Dr. Posner and others, new research on hypnosis and suggestion is providing a new view into the learning process and normal brain function.

It turns out that information from the eyes, ears and body is carried to primary sensory regions in the brain. From there, it moves to other regions where interpretation occurs. For example, light bouncing off a rose first reaches the eye, where it is turned into a pattern that is sent to the visual center in the brain. There, the rough shape of the rose is recognized. That pattern is next sent to the next area of function, where color is recognized, and then to the next region, where the shape and color are added up to create the image ‘rose’, along with other any other knowledge you have collected about roses.

We process sounds, scents, touch and other sensory information the same way. Researchers call this direction of flow feedforward. As raw sensory information is carried in bundles of nerve fibers to a part of the brain that creates a meaningful impression, the data is moving from bottom to top.

The surprise is the amount of traffic the other way, from top to bottom, which is called feedback. There are 10 times as many nerve fibers carrying information down as there are carrying it up.

These elaborate feedback routes mean that consciousness, what people see, hear, feel and believe, is based on what brain scientists call “top down processing.” What you see is not always what you get, because what you see depends on the history of your experiences. You use what you already know to help you interpret the raw information – you see a rose or a hammer. 150 is a number that means “fat” or ‘losing weight successfully”.

This brain structure explains hypnosis, which is all about creating such powerful top-down processing that the hypnotic suggestions you give yourself become your reality. Brain scans show that hypnosis changes your relationship to information you have learned to think of as true. “I always regain weight” or “I can never lose this fat.”, can be replaced with “I am successfully losing weight” and “I am a fit, trim, agile and muscularly toned person.” Top-down processes override sensory, or bottom-up information, said Dr. Stephen M. Kosslyn, a neuroscientist at Harvard. People think that sights, sounds and touch from the outside world constitute reality. But the brain constructs what it perceives based on past experience. Most of the time bottom-up information matches top-down expectation, according to researchers. But hypnosis is interesting because it creates a mismatch. We imagine something different, so it is different.

When you want to lose weight and keep it off, you can use self hypnosis to change how you think about your self and what you are capable of. When you do that, you will find yourself behaving in ways that make your preferred picture come true. Imagine yourself happily exercising in some way every day. See in your mind’s eye the delicious healthy food you take pleasure in nourishing yourself with. See yourself in the clothing size you want to wear, engaged in the activities that you want enjoy, and make it so, with regular use of well designed self hypnosis sessions.

For those men who are well endowed, penis size was never a problem. But for men who are below average (average length is 6 inches); they would often ask how to make it longer. Some would look for ways to do it without the help of surgery.

How to make my penis longer without surgery?

Surgical method is done by cutting off the tendons that hold the penis, and letting it down and out so that it increases its flaccid length by an inch or two. Some would combine a method of clamping the blood vessel to retain the blood much longer thus making it engorged.

However there are ways said to be effective in lengthening the penis.

So, “How to make my penis longer without surgery?”, one safe way of doing so is simply making it look longer by cutting one’s pubic hair, or losing some weight.

Others would perform exercises like Jelqing and Jikok. This method is supposedly done to make the penis longer and thicker through exercising. The technique is also called “milking”. This is done by wrapping the thumb and the index finger around the base of the semi-erect penile shaft, drawing it away from the body. This movement forces the blood into the glans.

Another technique is by “Hanging”. This is done by hanging weights behind the glans penis for a period of time, gradually increasing the weight to “exercise” the penis with repetitions of around 5 to 10 minutes. This procedure however can result in serious damage like scarring, impotence, chronic pain and nerve damage. The reason behind “Hanging” is to stretch the tunica albuginea and other tissues of the penis.

Stretching is another form of non-surgical method to increase the length of the penis. This makes use of an extender apparatus and is attached to the penis for a certain period of time in several repetitions. This produces traction to the penis, which would supposedly make it longer and thicker.

Clamping is another risky procedure in enlarging the penis. It makes use of a “cock ring”. The objective of this procedure is to augment the girth of the penis. It makes use of constricting devices such as cable clamp, shoe string, or as mentioned a tight cock ring. The apparatus is clamped on the base of the erect penile shaft. Metal cock rings are discouraged by medical practitioners and those people who use clamping. This is because the trapped blood that is engorging the penis can make it unattainable to remove the metal cock ring without the use of amputation, or sawing the metal ring.

Lastly, the Penis Pump: According to some experts, rather than making the penis longer and thicker, it is more of the psychological satisfaction that it gives men. The penis pump is also known as the vacuum pump. This is a cylinder that is placed over the penis. As it produces mild suction, the blood is let into the penis making it engorged, thus having a harder erection. A flexible cock ring is also used with the penis pump. It is placed on the opening of the cylinder, after the suction, the ring is pushed to the base of the engorged penile shaft, and then the penis pump is released.

Penis pumps are commonly used for the treatment of impotence. The pump can also produce harmful effects such as ruptured blood vessels, blisters, cuts. In some cases, over-zealous pumping may cause the testicles to be sucked in the cylinder causing pain and possible injury from the said procedure.

It is indeed hard to find answers to the question on “how to make my penis longer without surgery”. Various procedures, pills, patches and ointments are presented to potential markets. But up to this moment, there are still no scientific proofs that these procedures and pills can enlarge your penis.
