Fitness experts offer healthy advice on shedding 10 lbs.

Posted: at 4:08 pm


NASHVILLE, Tenn. -

As warmer weather and swimsuit season is quickly approaching, many throughout the country are hitting the gym to get in shape and shed some unwanted pounds.

Nashville's News 2's Lauren Murphy consulted with health and fitness experts who offered healthy ways to lose 10 pounds.

Health officials said one of the best ways to ensure weight lose is to get a good night's sleep each night and skip that extra cup of coffee to help boost energy.

"People will reach for food or for another cup of coffee. They would just be so much better off if they would just get that recommended eight hours of sleep," explained Maryanne Brockett, a personal trainer and group fitness instructor at 5 Gym in east Nashville.

Another way to help shed the pounds is split meals with friends or co-workers and to eat slowly. Experts say it takes around 30 minutes for a person's brain to register satiety and that by sharing a meal won't be quite as detrimental to a diet since you are only consuming half of the calories.

Experts also suggest that brushing your teeth can help cure a craving.

To help ease mindless eating, health officials suggest painting your nails, organizing your desk or other activities to distract yourself.  

Brockett told Nashville's News 2 that it is ok for a person to indulge occasionally.

"Instead of having that one cookie when you really, really wanted it, you're going to eat that whole bag [if you deprive yourself]," she said.

Another tip to help shed the pounds is to substitute soda and alcohol for sparkling water.

"I'll put a lime in it and you'd never know the difference," said Mark Magnuson, who has successfully lost 13 pounds of fat and kept it off.

Brockett said she encourages everyone to drink plenty of water throughout the day.

"Your body is made up of water," she explained, adding, "If you don't have enough, none of [your body] functions correctly. It also helps stave off hunger so you really need to get at least 64 ounces."

Melony Barnett told Nashville's News 2 she successfully lost 10 pounds by enlisting in an exercise partner.

"It's kind of become a competition," said Barnett. "We try to outdo each other!"

Another tip that Brockett offers to those working out is to keep it fun.

"If you get bored, you're going to quit, so you always need to change it up," she explained.

According to Brockett a few other ways to shed pounds include instead of emailing co-workers drop by their office, during commercial breaks of your favorite television show perform quick workouts focusing on different areas of your body and keep healthy snacks available.

The fitness trainer also said many health and fitness magazines offer workout plans online and to place a photo of you looking your best on the refrigerator so you will be reminded of how healthy you were at that time.

BMO Retirement Tips of the Day: Be Generous But Don't Give Away Too Much During Your Life & Spend During Your …

Posted: at 4:08 pm


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire -02/17/12)- As the February 29th deadline approaches to make a contribution to a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP) and as part of its ongoing commitment to improving financial literacy, BMO Financial Group will be providing daily retirement tips during the month of February from BMO Retirement Institute Head Tina Di Vito's new book 52 Ways To Wreck Your Retirement...And How To Rescue It.

Tip Number 33:

Be Generous But Don't Give Away Too Much

You have had a good life, and now you want to help your children and/or grandchildren financially. Your heirs will inherit your money anyway, but you still want to help them while you are still alive. While this is a noble view, keep in mind that retirement can last 30+ years; you need to start thinking more about your future and how much money you will need, rather than how much you should be giving to the kids. There are ways to be generous and still be mindful of your retirement savings. Consider the following:

-- Rather than cash, give away personal property or family heirlooms during
your lifetime.
-- If you want to help fund a grandchild's education, consider contributing
to a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP). One of the important
features of the RESP is that you can take back your contributions should
you be in the unfortunate situation of needing the money during your
retirement years.
-- Draft a loan - document the fact that a loan has been given to a family
member and ask for a demand promissory note.
-- Consider registering a mortgage on the home you helped your child to buy
-- Document large gifts and amend your will to take the gift(s) into
account when dividing the estate among the beneficiaries.

Tip Number 34:

Spend During Your Retirement, But Do Some Planning First

You have worked hard to accumulate personal savings for retirement and now that you are retired, why should you hesitate to spend the money? However, spending your retirement savings comes with a myriad of fears and decisions. Consider the following when deciding how much to spend:

-- If you are concerned about outliving your money, investigate investment
products that guarantee income for life.
-- Determine how important it is for you to leave an estate and decide how
much you would like to leave.
-- Assess whether you can afford to leave a legacy and, if not, discuss,
with your financial advisor options to create an estate by using life
insurance products.
-- Have an open dialogue with your children about your wish to leave an
inheritance- you may find your children would rather you use the money
during your lifetime.

Retirement Morphs Into 'Rehirement' for Most Americans

Posted: at 4:08 pm


A retirement filled with golf, shopping and relaxation is no longer in the cards for most Americans over  age 60, new research finds.

A study conducted by CareerBuilder revealed that 57 percent of workers age 60-plus plan to look for a new job after retiring from their current company, showing that retirement no longer means the end of one's working days.

Many of those over 60 don't see a stereotypical retirement in their future for a number of years, the research found. Half of those surveyed said it will be at least five years before they plan to retire from their current job, with one in 10 thinking they'll never be able step away from their job.

The good news for such seasoned workers is that many employers are open to hiring them, the study shows. More than 40 percent of the surveyed employers plan to hire workers over age 50 this year. Additionally, 75 percent of employers said they'd consider an application from an overqualified worker who is 50-plus, with 59 percent of them saying it's because mature candidates bring a wealth of knowledge to an organization and can mentor others.

[The Secret to Finding a Job After 50]

"Whether mature workers are motivated by financial concerns or simply enjoy going to work every day, we're seeing more people move away from the traditional definition of retirement and seek 'rehirement,'" said Rosemary Haefner, vice president of human resources at CareerBuilder. "At the same time, employers are seeing the value these mature workers can bring to an organization, from their intellectual capital to their mentoring and training capabilities."

PrimeCB.com, CareerBuilder's job site for mature workers and retirees, offers several tips for finding jobs later in life:

Leverage professional and real-world experience — When updating a résumé or interviewing for a job, mature workers should think about their experience in terms of both work and life skills. Whether it's strong leadership skills or a wherewithal to weather a tough economy, play up the strengths that come with having more years under the belt. Bring value to the company — Seasoned employees looking to stay with their current company beyond retirement age need to find new ways to contribute outside of their day-to-day tasks, such as spearheading a mentorship program or offering to train new hires. Consider part-time or freelance work — For workers who aren't ready to completely stop working, part-time employment may be a good solution. They should check out job boards, talk to staffing firms and tap into their social and professional networks for part time, freelance or temporary work.

The study was based on surveys of more than 800 U.S. workers age 60 and older and more than 3,000 hiring managers and human resources professionals.

MMRGlobal and VisiInc Sign Agreement to License MMR Australian Patent Portfolio on the Road to HIMSS

Posted: at 4:07 pm


LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire -02/17/12)- MMRGlobal, Inc. (OTC.BB: MMRF.OB - News) ("MMR"), a leading provider of Personal Health Records ("PHR"), MyEsafeDepositBox storage solutions and electronic document management and imaging systems for healthcare professionals, today announced that the Company and VisiInc PLC in Australia signed an agreement to license MMR's Australian patents for "Method and System for Providing Online Medical Records" for use in MMR and Visi™ consumer and professional health IT products and services, including the MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record. The Agreement calls for minimum performance royalty guarantees of nearly one million dollars. The Agreement also calls for VisiInc to start selling the services in Australia starting June 1, 2012. In addition, the Agreement contains an understanding allowing the companies to utilize each other's consumer and professional products and services. VisiInc is also seeking rights to sell MMR products in additional territories such as in Eastern Europe where VisiInc already does business.

Jacques Blandin, Founder and CEO of VisiInc, has been in Los Angeles for meetings with MMRGlobal this week prior to traveling to Las Vegas to participate with MMR at the HIMSS Conference and Exhibition, February 20-24, and will also appear at MMRGlobal's booth #2062. Although no other agreements have been announced, Yefim Schukin, a principal of VisiInc Russia, is also traveling to the United States to attend meetings with MMR where the companies will discuss the launch of its products and services in Russia. Yefim Schukin will also attend HIMSS with Jacques Blandin.

VisiInc will use its Vistime system for distributing MMR's Personal Health Records and professional document management systems. The high speed service offers near real-time high resolution document imaging, scanning, storage and sharing health record system for paper and large-sized radiological scans and files. The system will also allow real-time collaboration of medical records and images regardless of a participant's location and connectivity (including dial-up) anywhere in the world.

Personal Health Records are a priority for the Australian government and a significant part of Australia's eHealth technology market, which will serve a population of 22 million and is currently projected to be USD $2.6 billion in 2012. MMR's Australian patent portfolio can give VisiInc a significant competitive advantage in the market by controlling intellectual property rights that are primary to providing PHRs in line with government initiatives. The Medical Software Industry Association in Australia detailed an alternative rollout schedule to the government's Personally Controlled Electronic Health Record (PCEHR) that calls for PDFs currently used by clinicians and shared by email or fax to be a solution in electronic online form until at least July 2013 because standardization is not going to occur before at least then. MMR's proprietary health IT solutions align with this strategy.

While in Los Angeles, Blandin also appeared with MMR Executive Vice President Richard M. Lagani on MoneyTV during which he spoke with host Don Baillargeon about the extensive opportunities in Australia for the MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record and MMRPro for healthcare professionals for the eHealth technology market there (video available at http://www.moneytv.net). MoneyTV debuted in 1996 and is broadcast internationally in more than 180 million TV households in over 75 countries.
