Laughter is the best medicine.  You’ve probably heard this expression time and time again.  For years, doctors and researchers have been studying to see how laughter really affects one’s health & overall wellness.  And it does more than just that.  It can help you in your weight-loss.  Seriously.

Personally, I know it helps me.  It gets me through good times and bad times, and I think laughing is one of the greatest pleasures in life.  Anyone who can make me laugh is a quick friend.  Laughing brings so much happiness to my life. 

You know how laughing just makes you feel wonderful?  It releases tension and just makes the day a little bit brighter?  Laughter is the best prescription on days when you need that little push to keep you going.

But what about weight-loss?   Can laughing really help you lose weight?

Well, anyone who has tried to lose weight knows it’s not always an easy road.  Like anything in life, at times there are obstacles that hold us back.  And when I work with clients, I help them overcome those obstacles.  

But I also help them have a healthy attitude towards food, and a healthy attitude towards weight-loss.  We can’t always take everything so seriously.  Adding laughter can help make the journey to losing weight and feeling better that much more fun!

I recently found a nifty little book that does just that – it adds some laughter.  I mean really, who wants weight-loss to be BORING?  Not me.

Lite’N Up!: Laugh Yourself Skinny is a new book by Samara Q. Klein whose goal is to make your weight loss journey a bit more enjoyable and a bit more fun.  And it does.  It really does!

It’s a cute and creative book that helps you track what you eat, while adding in the spice of humor on the opposite page.  So while you write down what you ate that day and keep track of your progress, you can at least smile or laugh along the way.  

There’s one particular quote in the book I like:

“A bit confusing but true: to have a French woman’s body, you must not eat French bread, French toast, or French fries.”

Or how about this:

“You know you are thinking about food too much when during sex you call out the name of a condiment.”  

That one really got me laughing!  

We all need a little fun, humor, and laughing in our lives.  Especially today.  There’s so much negative stuff out there that a little laughter could do us some good.  Lite’N Up!: Laugh Yourself Skinny is just the ticket for a little pick-me-up, and help you realize that weight-loss is not all that bad (well, at least with some help and support). 

So whether you’re trying to lose a few pounds or a few dress sizes, this book can help keep you laughing, smiling, and realizing that we all need some fun in our weight loss.  I mean really, what’s the point of losing weight if you can’t have some FUN!  

So laugh some more.  And make the road to skinny a bit more pleasurable!
