"Mind Power Really Can Make You Thin."

It seems scientists are coming up with new startling conclusions every day.

Something to think about?

How many times has someone said that to you? More than once, I'll bet. But now it seems it's even better advice than ever.

It seems an amazing discovery has been made by researchers at Harvard University. Psychologists studied 84 hotel cleaners, whose job involved physical activity. Half the group lost about two pounds. They also reduced blood pressure by 10%. The other half had no changes.

If the successful half had been put on a new diet, the world right now would have bought millions of copies of it and every talk show would be discussing how good it is. If you're wondering what caused half of the hotel cleaners to lose weight, you may be in for a bit of shock. The only difference between the two groups was that the successful group had been coached to believe that the jobs they were doing burned calories, made them healthier and helped them lose weight.

Yes, the weight loss group simply believed their work gave them health benefits. Those health benefits almost magically manifested with no extra effort on their part. Chief researcher, Ellen Langer, claimed 'The changes were a function of the change in mindset alone'.

She goes on to say If you can put the mind in a healthy place, you can have dramatic physiological consequences'. In plain English you might just be able to lose weight by thinking about it the right way. That has important implications for those of us who want to enjoy weight loss

If you imagine yourself losing weight and burning up calories during normal daily activity, you will lose weight and bodyfat. That simple. No dieting, no extra exercising, no pills, no shakes, no meal replacements. It almost sounds too good to be true, but the researchers at Harvard have now proven that it's not.

So next time you see a trim and slim friend who eats what they want and never puts a pound on, you'll know their secret!
