Hello again everyone and welcome to the September 17, 2009 edition of the Weightloss Help Blog Carnival!  I held off a week for accepting submissions so I could really bring you a nice one.  This edition covers some really cool topics including the latest in iPhone apps to help you lose weight and also how fitness and exercise can effect your sex life!

Eric presents Colon Cleansers posted at Colon Cleansers. Colon cleansing only became popular in the United States in the 1920s-30s. As the health benefits proclaimed by such colon cleaners were not medically proven back then, its popularity weaned as time goes by. In recent years however, it seemed to have gained back its hay days.

Andy presents Recovery from Binge Eating posted at test, saying, “Another night another binge. Your stomach is so full that it’s aching. When is it ever gonna end? That’s it, you are sick of this cycle of binging and dieting. You make a commitment to never binge again. But you remember that you made that promise last”

Shannon Wills presents 50 iPhone Apps That Will Make You Much Healthier posted at Physical Therapy Assistant Schools. Those who have an iPhone, or even iPod Touch, know that they are capable of doing just about everything from organizing your finances to maintaining your home. Go the extra step and take care of yourself in food, workouts, mental health, and more by having a look at these 50 iPhone apps that will make you much healthier.

Alan Overton presents How To Balance Starting Swiss Ball Exercises | Lifetime Fitness 4 Men posted at Lifetime Fitness 4 Men, saying, “When first performing Swiss ball exercises, you may experience problems keeping your balance. The very effort of trying to balance works your stomach muscles and that, in turn, helps you to lose belly fat. As you practice exercise ball exercises, your balance will improve, but then maintaining your balance will also keep your stomach muscles engaged.”

FitJerk presents Improving Your Sex Life Through Fitness & Exercise posted at FlawlessFitness, saying, “A healthy sex life is important to everyone, but are you getting the most out of it that you can? If you aren’t, there here are some tips and special exercises to help you spice things up in the bedroom!”

Wenchypoo presents Updated: Don’t Take This With a Grain of Salt (L-O-N-G) posted at Wisdom From Wenchypoo’s Mental Wastebasket. We have a “new” 500 to be aware of, and it has nothing at all to do with racing. This has to do with salt intake. The wool has been pulled over our eyes yet again with nutritional advice beaten into us like a drum—the typical recommendation of 2350 mg. salt per day, you know, the 1 teaspoon allowance that we all exceed regularly without even realizing it.

Andy presents Binge Eating Disorder Recovery Tip posted at test, saying, “Are you sick of overeating? Your late night eating? Do you want to jump on the path to recovery from binge eating disorder yet you don’t know where to start?”

Jason Chen presents South Beach Diet Book Review on 20bmi.com posted at 20bmi.com. Cardiologist Dr. Agatson’s South Beach Diet book is a New York Times Best Seller, both because of its nutritional advice and the popularity of the low carb diets which were made popular by earlier work by another cardiologist, Dr. Atkins. Dr. Agatson’s advice is similar to that of the “traditional low carb” diet but at the same time, it is a little different.

Kyle Wood presents 7 Fitness Tips For Achieving Your Fitness Lifestyle posted at Kyle’s Fitness Facts. One thing I see far too many people do is just grind away at the same training style day after day. This is often due to a lack of knowledge in training methods.

Tony presents High Protein Diets posted at Health Fitness Article Directory, saying, “My husband and I have been on high protein diets for over 5 years. During this time we have been able to keep our weight under control as well as his “pre diabetes” under control. For most of our meals we eat chicken, steak, eggs, pork, fish, or shrimp. We try to avoid pastas and breads as well as any other high carb food.”

Carolyn Friedman presents 100 Terrific Tools to Lose Weight & Stay in Shape without a Gym Membership posted at Nurse Practitioner Schools. It always starts with good intentions. You finally go to the gym to start a membership. You plunk down your hard earned cash for a sign-up fee and obligate your self to a year-long, no escape, contract. Don’t waste your money! Read this article on how to get in shape without gym memberships

Well that’s it for this week.  Be sure to keep an eye out for our next edition of the weightloss help blog carnival.  I hope that you found these articles useful, I know I did!  Take care everyone and don’t forget to follow weightloss helps on twitter!

Technorati tags: quick weight loss tips, weightloss help.

Welcome to the September 2, 2009 edition of the weightloss help blog carnival.  This week we had a ton of submissions (50) but only 7 made it to be published.  Why so little you ask?  Because all of the rest of them were obtrusive advertising!  Some of them had pretty decent information in them but I refuse to bring my readers sites that constantly beat you into buying something!  Ok, enough with my ranting it’s time for this weeks articles.

Tony presents American Heart Association Diet posted at Health Fitness Article Directory, saying, “The American Heart Association diet is one of only two that is currently endorsed by the FDA. They encourage you to view it not just as a diet but as a lifestyle change to help you remain at a healthy weight for the rest of your life.”

Ray presents Is MonaVie Acai Berry A Scam? posted at Money Blue Book. MonaVie. Mona Vie. The word actually sounds like a spin off of some french phrase (mon ami), but when I hear the name, two things immediately come to mind – acai berry juice and multi level marketing pyramid scheme.

Steve Faber presents Belly Fat Loser » Benefits of Biking – How You Can Burn Calories and Lose Fat Biking posted at Belly Fat Loser, saying, “Biking is a great activity, and enjoyed by millions the world over, but is it really good for weight loss and fat reduction?”

Tony presents Low Fat Snacks posted at Health Fitness Article Directory, saying, “Snacking is the thorn in every diet. A snack is something you eat that is not a scheduled meal. You snack when you are hungry but can’t wait until your next meal. The problem is most snack foods are unhealthy and do not fill you up.”

Joe E presents Resistance exercises – perfect for building muscle as well as losing weight posted at Promote Health, saying, “Resistance training has many benefits over cardio workouts, and it may be a better choice for some people. Here are a few of the advantages…”

Alan Overton presents Best Stomach Exercises For Men | Lifetime Fitness 4 Men posted at Lifetime Fitness 4 Men, saying, “Do you look in the mirror sigh and think, “I need to flatten my stomach, lose belly fat and those love handles have to come off. What are the best stomach exercises to achieve this?””

Keith Webb presents 5 Ways to Measure Fitness Progress Without a Scale – Wo40 Blog – Weighting On 40 – Fitness for the 30-Something Crowd – and Beyond! posted at Weightingon40.
