New week, new "weight loss and diet tips" for you to enjoy! This is the final issue of our "Diet Tips" serie -- and this time includes 32 dieting suggestions instead of the "usual" 12.

Missed last week's first 12 tips? Here's an handy link to quickly get back to them. Feedback and comments as always welcome!

49. Take a Day Off from Dieting - This will keep your metabolism constantly on the move. Dieters tend to fall into a plateau when their metabolism figures out the body is on a diet. The occasional higher calorie intake will kick your metabolism into overdrive.

50. Break down your workouts into small increments of time. A 30 minute workout isn’t much compared to a 24 hour day. Within one 30 minute show you could have completed a workout and burned calories. When you think of workouts as small amounts of time compared to the amount of time in a full day…. It doesn’t seem like much time.

51. Add Milk to your Diet - It is said that adding low fat dairy products to our daily diet could aid in weight loss. The protein in milk helps us feel fuller longer. This is due to the fact that proteins take longer to digest. Just make sure the dairy products are the low fat variety. It is the protein your body needs not the higher fat count. So, look for low fat milk and cheeses.

52. Don’t eat past a certain time at night. I would suggest that you stop eating at least 3 hours before bed. Your body burns less calories at night while sleeping than while it is moving around during the day. So, it makes sense to pick a time in the evening to stop eating.

37. Never Crash diet to Lose Weight - Crash diets just don't work for the long haul.... unless if you mean "crash and burn". The thing about crash diets is that maybe you will lose the weight, but the minute you go off of them the pounds come back. The reason for this is because usually with a crash diet you are doing something extreme that you couldn't possible keep up with for a lifetime. And, like we mentioned before, we are trying to make a lifestyle change. So, please.... walk away from the crash diets.

38. Instead of eliminating food… substitute them. Eliminating the foods you enjoy can be disastrous. Especially when you want this to be a lifestyle change. If you love meatloaf, but you know that it is high in fat and calories don't eliminate it from you diet, but instead make substitutions. Make alterations to the foods or recipes to keep your favorite foods in your diet.

39. Instead of drinking fruit juice…. Eat a piece of fruit. - This tip saves on sugar and we must admit that eating something is much more satisfying than drinking it. There is a lot of extra calories and sugar in fruit juice. Our suggestion.... stay away from it.

Agendus Mail is our intuitive, streamlined and snappy email client featuring ease of use, full attachment support, unlimited POP / IMAP / SMTP email accounts, desktop synchronization, SMS capability and much more on Palm OS powered handhelds and Treo smartphones. And, it's the ideal companion of the Agendus for Palm OS line of solutions.

Version 5.41 is a maintenance update addressing message display issues specific to GSM Palm Centro smartphones (AT&T).

25. Don’t give up all fat. Some fat is good for you. - Not all fat is bad for you. And, you can't completely take fat out of your diet because it would be a completely unhealthy thing to do. Fats helps nutrient absorption, nerve transmission, maintaining cell membrane integrity and so much more. Read up on Good Fats vs Bad Fats to get all your answers on this.

26. Do not let yourself get bored. Change it up a bit. - If you get bored then you have a higher chance at giving up on your diet. There is no reason for you to get bored. If you have been eating the same food because you know they have been working then change it up a bit. Find other foods you enjoy. If it is the exercise that is boring you start a new fitness regimen... just don't allow yourself to get bored.

27. Know your daily calorie limit - What is the amount of calories you can have in a day and still lose weight? There are many weight loss tools to help you figure this amount out. And, I would highly recommend using one of them. Otherwise if you are just guessing the calories you are eating... chances are you are underestimating.

Agendus for Windows Mobile has been designed from the ground up with one goal in mind: to bring order and piece of mind in the busy life of today's windows mobile phone users. It accomplishes such goal by seamlessly unifying schedule, contact management and task organization in a homogeneous, straightforward and pleasant to use interface. Its out-of-the-box ready to use functionality is complemented by a variety of fine tuning options and preferences aimed at satisfying the novice as well as the power user audiences.

Version 2.21 is a maintenance release containing various improvements and functionality refinements. Particular attention has been given to the localized versions thanks to feedback and suggestions recently received through our User Community.

13. Weight loss buddy - Having a weight loss buddy can be such an amazing help when it comes to your weight loss. Especially if you and your buddy are a bit competitive in nature anyway. Set a goal and see which one of you reach the goal first.

14. Women are not the same as a man - If you are married one of the best ways to lose weight is to lose weight as a couple. Just like in the Weight Loss Buddy tip above you and your spouse could challenge each other.

But, keep in mind, that weight loss between a man and a woman is entirely different. Women have a tendency to lose weight at a much slower pace. And, this can be frustrating for the wife when the husband is losing weight quite rapidly. Check out Gender differences in Weight Loss for more information.

15. There is no magic pill…. Get Over IT!! - Once you get over the fact that there is no easy way to lose weight and no magic pill you can take you will be much better off. There are so many advertisements in magazines, TV, and online for Weight Loss Pill that do magic and make you lose weight quickly.... but they are lies. They don't work. Accept this fact and move on.

We hope you'll enjoy reading them, and perhaps find some helpful suggestion or item onto which to act upon. Feedback as always welcome!

1. Develop a Routine and Be organized - Being organized might sound like a silly way to lose weight, but we promise you that is not the case. Having a plan for any goal takes organization. And, weight loss is no exception. It has been found that the more organized and more planning in their diet the higher their chances of successful weight loss. So, come up with a weight loss plan and put it in writing to always keep you on your toes. Or better yet, use a Diet Software. That way the Diet Software helps you with the planning. Even offering you the weight Loss tools you need.

2. Make Exercise a Regular part of Life - This is one of the parts of creating a healthy lifestyle that people really hate. And, it shouldn't be like that. We have found a really cool way to add fitness to your new healthy lifestyle without it being awful at all. It might take a bit of thinking about it will be worth it. Think back to when you were a child or teenager... what did you enjoy doing as far as exercise? Did you use to play tennis? Did you use to take dancing lessons? Was jogging your thing? As a child you did things because the activities were fun.

In order to make exercise a regular part of your life without it being so painful you need to discover exercise that will make you happy. That way you will be happy doing something good for you.

3. Set Goals and Keep Track of your Progress - Before starting any diet or weight loss program make sure you have clearly set your goals and plans for your diet. Using weight loss tools helps figure out how many calories you will be eating every day. Make sure to track your progress through out your diet. Tracking your progress will help keep you focused. Most Diet Software has plenty of tools to track your progress.

Time to clear up doubts -- therefore yes, development of a BlackBerry version of our award-winning, fully integrated, personal information manager Agendus is underway.  We are on target to launch it on July 15.

As with all our Agendus incarnations, the BlackBerry version will interconnect meetings, tasks and contacts.  Plus it’ll be easy-to-use and "ready-to-go, out-of-the-box." just as we like all our titles to be. 

Version 1.0 will carry a rather large number of Views (including Today View, Contact, Calendar and Task views), Over-the-Air (OTA) capability, Contact History, and more. 

We are building it with extensibility in mind, in order to be able to embed additional features and enhance current ones, based on the feedback we'll receive from users. We plan on using the same approach that we’ve used with most of our titles:  keeping a closed loop where direct user feedback is incorporated into future features being developed.

All this being said, if you own a BlackBerry phone and feel strongly about features and functionalities you’d like to see woven into Agendus for BlackBerry, please let us know.  You don't have to wait till July 15. Just head over to our forums, where we have a brand new section dedicated to Agendus for BlackBerry.

Also, if you’d like a heads-up on when it is released (including when the Beta version is available), all you have to do is subscribe to our BlackBerry release notification mailing list.

Thank you for taking the time to read this post.  And, as always, please feel free to send in your feedback and suggestions!
