Hi Everyone – I’m a big fan of Dr. Oz and his amazing knowledge of the human body. I’m also a big fan of Pastor Rick Warren who has written the best seller, “The Purpose Driven Life.” I hope the 3 tips below encourage you to know you are on the right path to your weight loss goals and having success!
Dr Oz: The Daniel Plan - Doctor Oz did a segment on how Pastor Rick Warren lost weight on the Daniel Plan. Pastor Warren stated that weight loss groups are important because God has wired us to need each other. Several passages in the Bible reference this idea. It is the mutual service to each other that will keep us successful. The long-term behavior came from the group support. One of the best parts about The Daniel Plan is that you form lasting relationships and it’s FREE! Pastor Warren’s words of wisdom; if it grows on a plant - eat it. If made in a plant - don't eat it!
Dr. Oz: Form a Group.
1. Form A Weekly Meeting- Forming a weekly meeting creates accountability and encouragement. You can use anyone for your meetings, like friends, neighbors and co-workers. During the meetings, have a teaching time, which should be inspirational. Also include a sharing time. This could be sharing information about family, weight loss, sports, basically anything that you can share with others. Make it meaningful and share your healthy recipes or your weight loss
success stories.

Dr. Oz: Burst Training or Interval Training.
2. Burst Training (Interval Training)- This type of training varies speed and intensity.
Burst training will increase your metabolism to help you lose weight. Pastor Warren noted that whether you are a beginner or more advanced, interval training can work for you. Cater your training to your level and as you become healthier, the level will increase.
Dr. Oz: Goal Sheet.
3. Create A Goal Sheet-Your goal sheet should marrying faith with food. Have a daily quiet
time in order to do such peaceful things as review your life, recharge your emotions or refocus the mind. Create goals that include such personal tasks as being able to see your children grow up or to love your body. Pastor Warren felt that if you did not have a goal, you were headed nowhere, so take the time to create positive goals that you can achieve.
