Maybe you’ve decided that your slinky black dress is becoming rather - shall we say, lumpy…Perhaps that dreaded school reunion is just around the corner, or you haven’t been able to see your toes for a while - whatever the cause, you need to drop 10 or 15 pounds. Enter, the 3 day tuna diet and it seems to be fast and easy. just what you were thinking of!

Hold off! There are a few facts about the 3 day tuna diet that you will want to know before you decide to get started.

True, the 3 day tuna diet has climbed the popularity charts very quickly. As a crash diet, it’s one of the hot ones. Why? Most people believe it can’t be harmful to your health due to the short amount of time involved.

That couldn’t be further from the truth. This, and virtually EVERY crash diet adversely affects your metabolism. What that means bottom line is that you are setting yourself up to gain back all the weight you lost - fast - plus some. Your 10 pound annoyance will rapidly escalate into a 20 pound disaster.

Crash diets all tend to rely on starvation and the 3 day tuna diet is no exception. That’s why they’re successful at first…and also why they aren’t healthy. Your caloric intake is far too low and will force your body into starvation mode within the first day!

When your body - in an attempt to protect you - has switched over to starvation mode, it’s usually fairly easy to tell. You’ll feel sluggish and not want to do anything, you might start to dream about food (night dreams AND day dreams), you could have trouble keeping warm and will constantly be cold, specially in your extremities.

The 3 day tuna diet has so few calories, that it is very near to being a VLCD or “very low calorie diet”. Any diet that is under 1200 calories per day is considered a “low calorie diet”. Below 800 calories per day is considered “very low calorie.”

Regardless of the level of obesity, no child should EVER be on a “VLCD”. No adult should attempt it without close supervision of a doctor.

The name of the 3 day tuna diet suggests that you are only on the diet for 3 days…not true. You are on and off the diet for a full month. Plus, the foods are NOT a balanced diet and have no hope of ever creating a long term weight loss.

A large portion of the diet consists of refined carbohydrates. They are considered as “empty calories” and have little if any nutritional value. Refined carbs also create spikes in our production of insulin. Spikes and drop offs of insulin can create HUGE medical problems as well as energy peaks and valleys and food cravings.

During the four days a week you are NOT on the 3 day tuna diet, most of us gorge and overeat. the food cravings we generate are just too much for us. Studies conducted as far back as the 1970’s show that the average dieter gains an ADDITIONAL 8 pounds on top of his beginning weight in the weeks following the diet.

You can lose weight and keep it off. There are many diets that work very well - and safely. They replace bad food choices and habits with better ones. With these safe diets, you should NEVER experience hunger.

For your own sake…stay away from crash diets like the 3 day tuna diet. For information on diets that DO work, visit my website right away. While it’s still free, get a copy of my “Fast Weight Loss Tips!” mini-course. your body will thank you.

A bill being proposed by the U.S. Congress has caused storeowners to focus on retail energy management when it comes to improving their energy efficiency. The American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 call for a cap and trade program in certain industries, the reduction in carbon emissions as well as a proposal to depend on renewable energy sources for as much as 25% of energy used by the year 2020. Efficiency standards are set for a large number of companies.

Scientific research has shown us that certain utility processes, including production of heating oil, electricity and other fuels, cause greenhouse gas emission which has significant adverse potential when it comes to climate change. The US government and other governments around the world are considering mandatory retail and energy management dictates to address this global warming issue.

Many businesses are currently dealing with intricate regulations regarding carbon emissions, such as refrigerant gas commonly found in commercial refrigeration and air conditioning (RAC) systems or heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. On top of these regulations, they will be faced with a new set of energy efficiency requirements. However, there are energy management programs that can handle tracking and reporting through an automated system.

There are a number of reasons why retail energy management should be embraced. Utility usage will be reduced, and smart technology can identify renewable energy sources. As greenhouse gases are reduced, healthier environment results, with retailers enjoying the best energy rates, a reduced carbon footprint, lower energy costs overall, and access to state, local and national incentives and rebates.

It has been shown that should an average service restaurant reduces its energy needs by 10%, it can enjoy a 4% increase in net profit margins. Likewise, an average supermarket could realize a 16% increase in net profit margins, if it should reduce its energy consumption by 10%. Smart retailers would use the savings to pay for the cost of asset management software, to help them identify, maintain, track and report their equipment.

When it comes to successful retail energy management, the first step is to make a commitment to conserve energy. This may be through upgrading an existing facility, or building a new one. Next, performance should be assessed, goals stated, an action plan created and implemented and progress evaluated. An automated and comprehensive energy management program should quickly and easily provide this data.

A retail energy management program will track the energy use of a building and can help you to evaluate an energy portfolio, regardless of the number and location of sites that you have. Energy Star rated equipment is advised, and automated programs can tell you about past and real-time energy use, areas for improvement, benchmarked goals and comparisons.

Retail energy management creates a comprehensive energy saving operation for one or multiple retail locations. It is particularly beneficial for any size and type of facility with a HVAC, extensive lighting, or refrigeration units installed. By controlling energy use, you can optimize the efficiency of equipment and other operational assets and significantly reduce operational costs.
