Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.On September 27 Carrotsncake.com blogger Tina Haupert shared four tips to help you keep on track with your weight loss goals.
Haupert shared, "What works for me is a little inspiration, some positive thinking, and strengthened self-discipline." Here are her four tips:
- Stay current with healthy living or fitness blogs to keep inspired and avoid eating the wrong foods. Here are some blogs to check out: Healthy Tipping Point, The Fitnessista, Social Workout, FitBottomedGirls and mizzFit.
- Imagine you at your "feel great weight", see yourself healthy, strong and soon you will be.
- Forget tomorrow -start immediately to begin your transformation. It can be as simple as planning out workouts, going for a walk, reaching for the carrot instead of the cake.
- Seek support from healthy, focused and motivated family and friends to lift your spirits. Haupert explains, "...willpower and self-discipline [are] contagious."
