Randy Jackson Lost 114 Pounds After Being Diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes – Prevention.com
Posted: January 29, 2020 at 5:47 pm
Randy Jackson is opening up about his incredible weight loss transformation. In a new interview with People, the American Idol alum said he shed 114 pounds after undergoing weight loss surgery and overhauling his lifestyle.
His turning point took place in 2003, when Jackson hovered around 300 pounds, and the body-shamers didn't miss a beat.
I think it was season 2 on Idol," Jackson recalled to People. "You come in and they go Yeah dawg, youre telling me Im terrible but youre fat! And I would go, I am. I have mirrors in my house. I know! For a long time you see me on TV and people have noticed me in the past and I was struggling with my weight, then I finally got it off by using some pretty drastic measures."
After being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes that same year, Jackson decided to make some serious changes to improve his health. The former American Idol judge underwent gastric bypass surgery before the year's end.
He also decided to switch up his diet. Growing up in Louisiana, Jackson ate sausage and grits, bread pudding, and beignets on the reg. "Food was always my thing because I grew up in the South where food and good times were king, Jackson told WebMD in 2008.
And a high-profile job touring with celebrities only made it harder to eat healthy: "After the show, everybody hangs out and eats and drinks," he said. "There are all kinds of sandwiches plus chips, cheeses, cookies, cakes, candy, beer, wine."
The star told People that after his weight loss surgery, he had to change the way he thought about food to keep the weight off. You have to almost have a complete divorce break up and start back bit by bit and find out the things that work with your body and you also find out the allergies and really pay attention to how you feel, he said.
Today, Jackson said that there are lots of fruits and vegetables in his house, and "we now have the corn without the bread. He recognizes that paying close attention to his diet is important to managing his type 2 diabetes.
Following his incredible weight loss transformation, Jackson wanted to inspire others to make healthier choices in their life too. He co-founded Unify Health Labs, a supplement company designed to help other people in their journey to get healthywhile sparing them the long confusing search I went through.
This is me sort of giving back, he told People. Something thats a simple solution because all of us probably have 50 bottles on the counter or 50 bottles in the bathroom of different vitamins and things that we take. The root causes of these certain diseases and trying to get your best health, it all starts in the gut. Gut health is really best health.

Increasing Competition Creates Problems for Weight Watchers – Motley Fool
Posted: January 29, 2020 at 5:47 pm
Shares of Weight WatchersInternational(NASDAQ:WW) jumped nearly 30% in the opening weeks of the new year, but the stock has since given back these gains and is down 6% as of this writing.
The company benefited from the seasonal enthusiasm that comes with New Year's resolutions and also spokesperson Oprah Winfreys 2020 Vision Tour, which kicked off in January. However, WW stock will likely continue to be volatile as the company struggles with sales growth. Competition is only increasing in the weight loss and wellness space, while consumers have ever-increasing options in the forms of websites, apps, and trendy diets.
Image source: Weight Watchers.
Weight Watchers saw declines in both earnings per share and revenue during the first, second, and third quarter of fiscal 2019. End-of-period subscribers increased during the year, but growth came from lower-priced digital subscriptions. For the companys higher-priced "Studio + Digital" option, which gives clients access to in-person workshops, subscription sales contracted during all three quarters. During the third quarter, Studio + Digital subscriber losses decelerated from double digits in the first half of the year to a drop of 7.3% year over year.
The wellness provider continues to battle competition from traditional weight-loss businesses like Nutrisystem, as well as from upstarts like Noom. The wellness and weight-loss space is highly fragmented with many individual online weight-loss coaches and wellness apps all vying to help consumers with their health goals.
For example, on December 26, Weight Watchers shares closed down 8.6% after competitor Tivity Healths Nutrisystem division announced its new customizable weight loss program based on individual goals, food preferences, and body types. The plans will be delivered via Nutrisystems NuMi app. The wellness company is also rolling out 41 new menu items to complement the debut of its new personal plans. Veggie lunch bowls and chocolate cream-filled cupcakes are among the new offerings.
Noom is another formidable competitor to Weight Watchers. It has attracted $114 million in funding from top investors, including Sequoia Capital, WhatsApp co-founder Jan Koum, and Serena Williams. Noom announced on January 18 that it had signed up 55,000 people to its app on New Years Day 2020, and WW stock sank over 10% the following trading day. Noom has over 50 million users, and its revenue nearly quadrupled from 2018s $61 million to 2019s $237 million. The app-driven program boasts customized offerings for customers as well as access to a specialist who can help with wellness goals.
These major threats come on top of the abundance of individual websites and coaches offering weight-loss support and programs.
While Oprah Winfreys extended partnership and 2020 Vision Tour presented by Weight Watchers are positive for the companys brand, they're not enough to boost revenue or subscriber numbers. Consumers now have access to an increasing range of solutions.
Given this new competitive environment, WW will have a hard time returning to positive sales growth. While the stock trades at 17 times forward earnings estimates, below the broadconsumer discretionary sector, the fundamentals of the company do not warrant a higher valuation right now. And the recent volatility of Weight Watchers shares is likely to be just a sign of things to come.

The Biggest Loser results in the biggest transformations.
Close to four years after the reality show went off the air, a revamped version is coming to the USA Network with more stories of weight loss and inspiration.
Hosted by Bob Harper, the show will give contestants the opportunity to exercise, make smart food choices and lead a healthier lifestyle. But as it turns out, losing weight is only part of the journey for these brave participants.
"The show taught me to find my voice," season 14 winner and motivational speaker Danni Allen shared with E! News exclusively ahead of the premiere. "The knowledge that I gained is remarkable. It's not about counting calories and going to the gym. It's about really making a lifestyle change."
The Planet Fitness advocate continued, "I don't think the scale tells you anything but your relationship with gravity. It doesn't tell you your worth or anything. The show helped me realize the scale doesn't tell me what I can do."
As for season six winner Michelle Aguilar, her weight-loss journey also included an emotional component that allows her to live her best life today.
"Being emotionally healthy is equally as important to me as being physically healthy," the proud mom shared with us. "It's hard to be open and vulnerable, but that's what keeps me healthy on the inside."
As we gear up for another memorable season of The Biggest Loser, take a look back at just some of the faces who not only transformed their body, but inspired the country.
NBC
After dropping more than 100 pounds during the course of several months, the season-four winner began teaching spin classes during his free time.

The firefighter dropped a staggering 116 pounds during his run on the show. That tallied up to 35 percent of his total body weight.
NBC
She took home $100,000 for going home almost half her size. Rebecca lost 139 pounds during her journey on the competition show.
NBC
Starting season six off at 242 pounds, Michelle got down to132 within a surprisingly short amount of time.
NBC
He clocked in at430 pounds on season eight, and was under 200 pounds shortly before the show finished.
NBC
Olivia went from 261 to 132 pounds on season 11 of the hit NBC program.
NBC
Like her twin sister, Hannah's progress was major. She lost 120 pounds while on the show.
NBC
After the death of her husband, infant son and young daughter in a car accident, Rike decided to make a dramatic change. She lost 100 pounds total, almost half of her body weight.
NBC
Starting on season eight as the biggest contestant the show had ever seen wasn't easy, but she managed to lose an impressive 172 pounds.
Chris Haston/NBC; Trae Patton/NBC
During season 14, Jillian Michaels' beloved contestant began her journey on the show at 258 pounds. She would weigh in at 137 pounds on finale night
NBC
The 24-year-old dropped from 260 pounds down to 105, losing almost 60 percent of her body weight.
The Biggest Loser returns Tuesday night at 9 p.m. on the USA Network.

‘Calorie Counting With The MyFitnessPal App Changed My Weight-Loss GameAnd I Lost 150 Lbs.’ – Women’s Health
Posted: January 29, 2020 at 5:47 pm
My name is Bri Blank Alexander (@bri.healthy) and I'm 27 years old. I live in Brooklyn, New York, and I'm a television personality and host, as well as a health and wellness influencer (though I prefer to call myself an inspirer!).
Ever since I was a toddler, I could eat whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted. There were no real food-related limits or rules in my household. Neither of my parents ate healthy, and neither of them really liked to cook. Large, greasy takeout meals were the norm. I ended up developing an emotional relationship and connection with food that I don't entirely understand to this day, but food was definitely a source of comfort for me.
I continued to gain weight throughout my life but I didn't let it bother me. I had a bunch of friends and a loving family. I was happy, so I didn't see a reason to change. But there were struggles: not fitting into booths at restaurants, being kicked off of an amusement park ride at Six Flags in front of my classmates on a school trip, squeezing into school desks, struggling to keep up with my friends while walking, and so much more.
I consider this divine intervention, because I used to avoid the scale at all costs, even refusing to learn my weight at doctor appointments. When I stepped on the scale, I saw a number that I never thought I'd see: I weighed 306 pounds. At that moment, I knew that I could not keep living the way I was. I knew that I needed to make a change, for no other reason than improving my health.
I was living on campus at the University of Rhode Island (URI), so my first step was immediately researching healthier foods I could eat in URI's dining halls. I found that turkey sandwiches on whole-wheat bread with lettuce, tomato, onion, and brown mustard was a staple that I could rely on (and I ate it almost every day for lunch and dinnerand never got sick of it!). I'd usually pair it with a piece of fruit or a cup of chicken noodle soup).
I also started a private Tumblr blog to repost healthy lifestyle graphics and recipes as motivation, and to track my progress and food intake.
It became fun for me to track my food intake, especially because I started to see results quickly. The numbers didn't stress me out, but rather they showed me the truth about what I was actually consuming. Calorie counting kept me accountable and gave me a written food diary, complete with all of each food's nutrients. I continued to count my calories all the way through my weight-loss journey, even after I moved off campus and taught myself how to cook healthier foods.
Now, my meals vary each day and are often different than they were during my weight-loss journey. Recently, I've been trying to eat more intuitively and to eat (pretty much) only when I'm actually hungry, which changed the way I eat, too. I try not to snack too much because I recently realized that, many of the times I was snacking, I wasn't actually hungry.
My eating style is constantly evolving. I eat differently now than I did last year, and the year before that. I believe that change is the only constant in life, so I continue to experiment with my eating style as my life gets busier as well, and I try to have fun with it, too.
Now that I'm used to calorie counting, I don't have to do it every day. When first starting out, it was important for me to develop an understanding of the foods I was eating. For example, nuts are super healthy, but it's important to portion them out, because their calorie counts can rack up really quickly. I don't believe in eliminating foods, but I believe in eating in moderation.
So yes, I would track my slice of pizza, but I'd still enjoy the pizza and then I'd eat a bit healthier the rest of the day. After doing the research and getting the hang of calorie counting, it became second nature.
My schedule is very busy now, so I have to make time for my workouts. I first started exercising about four months into my journey, when I had already lost about 50 pounds. I didn't want to jump into exercise without knowing if my heart could handle it. When I started, I got a gym membership in my hometown during summer break between sophomore and junior year.
I began to teach myself how to work out using the little bit of experience I had using gym machines in high-school gym class. I would ask trainers for advice on things like proper form, but I never had a trainer myself. I also researched workouts that I could do and found ones that I liked. I also fell in love with Zumba classes, which taught me how to dance and showed me how fun working out can be.
Nowadays, I do lots of strength training and group fitness classes. I like to try all of the different boutique fitness studios here New York City. Fitness has become much more than a weight-loss tool for me; it gives me energy, it makes me feel happier, and it makes me feel so strong and so empowered. And every time I work out, I know I'm doing something amazing for my health. The looks are just an extra bonus. (I created a hashtag called #HealthNotLooks because I feel that it's so important to start any health journey with the intention of improving your health, and not doing it simply for appearance.)
With a ton of determination, dedication, and self-love, I lost 150 pounds in one year and 10 months.
I went from a size 24 to a size 10. But more importantly, losing weight changed my quality of life. I'm able to walk freely, even run, without strain or immediately sweating profusely. I'm able to perform normal daily tasks with ease and energy. I can live a healthy, abundant life that is not limited by my size.

The Retrograde Shame of The Biggest Loser – The Atlantic
Posted: January 29, 2020 at 5:47 pm
The longer The Biggest Loser went on, though, the harder it was to maintain this position. Though participants were reportedly forbidden from talking to reporters without the shows permission (and were warned about potential fines of up to $1 million if they broke the rules), news began to eke out about what happened behind the scenes. In 2007, the Season 3 contestant Kai Hibbard spoke out about the tactics shed used to shed weight before the finale, which included eating only sugar-free Jell-O and asparagus (a diuretic) for days at a time, and sitting in a sauna for prolonged periods to sweat out more water. In 2014, after the Season 15 winner, Rachel Frederickson, weighed in at an emaciated 105 pounds, a visibly shocked Michaels quit for the third time, with People reporting that she was deeply concerned that attention wasnt being paid to the contestants health. In 2016, Biggest Loser alums told The New York Post that they were given diet pills on the show, sparking an internal NBC investigation. (Producers, doctors, and trainers on the series denied all allegations.) Most damning of all was a wide-ranging National Institutes of Health study published the same year, which revealed not only that the majority of former contestants had regained the weight theyd lost, but that their extreme dieting had also permanently damaged their metabolism.
Read: Can television destroy diet culture?
Even after so much scrutiny, The Biggest Loser wasnt officially canceled by NBC in 2016. It just never came back. And, in the four years it was off the air, a lot changed. Weight Watchers pivoted to wellness, supposedly rebranding itself away from the hard focus of numbers on a scale and toward more general encouragement of health and well-being. Consumers became more skeptical of diet culture, and more cognizant of the societal factors that lead to obesity. TV also adjusted to the times. Dietland and Shrill premiered, deftly dissecting fatphobia and the self-hatred that products like The Biggest Loser subliminally encourage. As if to illustrate how anachronistic the NBC show seems now, Michaelswhose unfiltered, unflinching style was historically a big part of her appealwas broadly denounced for fat-shaming this month after making comments about Lizzos weight on a BuzzFeed show.
And yet, despite everything, The Biggest Loser has shuffled, zombielike, back to prime time, with a new season debuting this week. USA Network, the sister network to NBC where the show has found a new home, announced last year that in its new incarnation the series was going to offer a holistic, 360-degree look at wellness. In a panel at the Television Critics Association conference in January, Harper (now serving as the shows host) and two new trainers insisted that this time around, things would be differentthat the focus would be on health rather than weight. Which is both a funny comment about a series whose final 20 minutes still revolve around mass weigh-ins optimized for peak drama in a TV studio, and, it turns out, completely untrue.

"I was so impressed." Tucson woman says this weight loss program really worked – KGUN
Posted: January 29, 2020 at 5:47 pm
What were you weight loss goals at the beginning of the year? Have you met your weight loss goals? Are you moving in the right direction? Is it hard to stay on track?
Losing "stubborn" fat is hard and as you get older - it just gets harder and harder. You might go to the gym five days a week, sweat on the treadmill for an hour, and see maybe a pound or two drop in a month. Is that really worth your time? Or... imagine going to a medical facility, laying down, spending 25 minutes relaxing, then getting up and finding out you've lost two inches around your waist. Which do you prefer? What if you could keep doing that and losing more and more fat until you looked like you did years ago? If you have any interest in this and how it works when it comes to inch loss, you should stop what you're doing and call the office for an appointment immediately. This new treatment technology - now available in Tucson - uses a special light therapy to trick your mitochondria (in your fat cells) to release their fat content. ULTRASLIM is now cleared for prescription use in the United States as the only noninvasive treatment for immediate fat removal without dieting, exercise, or pills.This treatment is safe and painless!If you eat better, drink plenty of water, stay away from sugars, and carbohydrates, this can lead to permanent fat loss without surgery. Here's a heads up. If you have tried liposuction in the past - you know that when you"regain the weight" it goes to different places-making your body look distorted and then unfortunately, you're back to where you started, only worse. With this technology we don't destroy your fat cells. What we do is we simply drain the contents of the fat cells so you lose the inches and look good again.Click here to learn more.

Diets That Can Jumpstart Your Weightloss – Latin Post
Posted: January 29, 2020 at 5:47 pm
The decision to lose weight is a very important one because it means you want to start taking more control over your health. With the many fad diets that everyone seems to be on these days, it can feel overwhelming to know which one to even bother with.
When deciding, keep in mind that diets should not be considered a quick way to lose weight; instead, think of them as lifestyle changes, and something you will want to stick with. The reason why there are many different diets is that everyone is different, and everyone has different needs when it comes to what they eat and the goals they want to accomplish.
Intermittent fasting is when you have cycles of eating and not eating. A common cycle is going 16 hours without eating anything, and then have an 8-hour window for eating. There are several variations when it comes to fasting, but mostly, you don't consume anything with calories during your fasting period, and you can drink water. One reason why intermittent fasting is so helpful for weight loss is that it forces people to eat less, resulting in a calorie deficit. Intermittent fasting can also be good for your heart health, reduce inflammation, and can reduce insulin resistance.
The ketogenic, or simply keto, diet is one where you consume high fat and low carbohydrates. This diet is a lot like the Atkins diet, except with this one, you're eating even fewer carbs. The reason why keto helps with weight loss is that when you consume very few carbs, your body will focus on burning fat rather than carbs. The ketogenic diet is when you eat 20 net carbs a day or less so that you enter the state of ketosis. Instead of eating carbs, you get to fill up on healthy fats and green vegetables. You are limited to only berries for fruits because fruits contain a lot of sugar. Followers of the keto diet tend to eat a lot of bacon, (yes you can have bacon on a diet!!!) and it can be helpful to check out bacon of the month options for variety.
The Mediterranean diet is when you eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, as well as potatoes, beans, nuts, seeds, and grains, and your primary source of fat comes from olive oil. You can consume dairy products, fish, eggs, and poultry, but in small amounts. This diet is mainly eating plant-based foods and a drastic reduction in the number of processed foods you eat. With this diet, you normally would eat a piece of fruit instead of sweets for dessert. The good thing about the Mediterranean diet is that it encourages you to eat more fruits and vegetables, and it limits the amount of sugar and highly processed foods you consume.
A vegetarian diet is when you avoid eating meat and fish, but you're able to eat dairy products and eggs. Vegans eliminate all animal products from their diet, and this includes eggs and dairy. The staples of a vegan diet include whole grains, leafy greens, legumes, fruits, and seeds. If you're sticking to one of these diets, you need to consider where you're getting your protein and calcium from. Soy products such as tofu, are a good source of protein, as well as beans and peas.
Anytime you want to make significant changes to your diet, you should always consider consulting your medical professional first. Instead of making drastic changes, gradually make the changes to your diet. The key is to find a program you can implement with your life, and have it be something you'll be able to do on a daily basis without getting tired of. With any diet, you want to be consistent. It's okay to fall off the wagon, but if you find yourself falling off more often than actually following the diet, you may want to find something that works better for you.

Cline Dion weight loss how did the singer lose weight? – The Sun
Posted: January 29, 2020 at 5:47 pm
CELINE Dion has made headlines for her slimmer frame in recent years.
While the singer's transformation has received a mixed response from fans, Cline insists she is feeling "strong and feminine".
3
Cline Dion, 51, is most famous for her unbelievable singing talents.
But the superstar singer has been seeing the conversation about her appearance take up more headlines in the past few years.
The Because You Loved Me hitmaker has been looking noticeably slimmer following the death of her husband Ren Anglil in 2016.
However the exact amount of weight she has lost over recent years has never been confirmed.
3
Talking to The Sun's Dan Wootton about her approach to fashion and health since the death of her husband Rene, Celine explained: "Im doing this for me. I want to feel strong, beautiful, feminine and sexy."
And as for criticism of her slimmer frame, Celine added: "If I like it, I dont want to talk about it. Dont bother. Dont take a picture. If you like it, Ill be there. If you dont, leave me alone."
The star also stated she has been dancing and training with her stylist and close friend Pepe Munoz.

Cline Dion has previously denied claims that she has an unhealthy diet.
She admitted to The Guardian: "I'm not anorexic. It pisses people off that I am thin and I don't make any effort."

She explained to People magazine: "Dancing has been in my DNA all of my life. Its a dream. And so hard!
"I do [ballet practice] four times a week. People say, 'Shes a lot thinner' but Im working hard. I like to move and [weight loss] comes with it."
