Lose Fat Instead of Muscle or Water Weight

By Scott Magers DONT BE FOOLED BY THE SCALE The weight displayed on your bathroom scale does not mean much when you consider the following: 60% of total body mass is water weight. Water retention is influenced by water consumption and salt intake. The less water you drink the more water you retain. Sodium is a sneaky substance. One half cup of instant pudding has 4 times the sodium of salted nuts (460mg vs. 123mg). The greater the processing the greater the sodium content. Read labels, canned foods, boxed mixes and frozen dinners are usually very HIGH in sodium while fruits, vegetables, lean meats and beans are very LOW. Glycogen is the fuel tank of stored carbohydrate in the liver and muscle tissue. Glycogen stores can fluctuate your weight by 4-5 pounds without changing your amount of body fat. There are 3500 calories contained in ONE POUND of fat. So it is therefore impossible to gain 5 pounds (17,500 calories) from one meal. When the scale goes up 3-4 pounds overnight its likely to be water; glycogen and the weight of your dinner. The scale weighs muscle, bone, water, internal organs and fat. When you lose weight that doesnt necessarily mean that youve lost fat. Losing MUSCLE is nothing to celebrate about since muscle is METABOLICALLY active tissue. The more muscle you have the more calories your body burns while exercising. A lean body can burn up to 200 more calories per hour during aerobic activity than those with average body composition. KEYS TO FAT LOSS If you want to increase your lean muscle tissue and reduce body fat here is the list you must become familiar with: Perform weight lifting exercises Consume adequate amounts of complete protein each meal Get proper rest Stimulate your pituitary gland to increase hGH levels, eat low glycemic foods Keep your stress levels low Exercise in the morning on an empty stomach Balance your macro-nutrients (protein, carbohydrates and nutritional fats) Add interval training while doing cardiovascular exercise Take daily micro-nutrient supplements (vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidants) Avoiding high glycemic Avoiding trans-fatty acids (potato chips and French fries), hydrogenated oils, and too much saturated fat. Eliminating refined sugars Eating every 3-4 hours to keep blood sugar levels stable (use a meal replacement drink or snack between meals for convenience and increasing protein levels). Your success in dropping body fat and increasing your energy levels starts with the understanding of these concepts. Take time to go over; memorize and incorporate these HABITS into your daily schedule. You will be AMAZED with the results! Scott Magers is a leading educator, formulator, and motivator in the field of nutrition and fitness. With over 24 years of experience in nutritional science, Scott has worked with many of the top professional and Olympic athletes, business leaders, sports teams, youth groups, and celebrities outlining detailed programs emphasizing a low glycemic, nutrient-dense, balanced approach to nourishing the body.

Stop Worrying - How to Control Panic Attacks

By Tim Shank It hits you like a wave. Sometimes it is a gentle wave that builds until it completely covers you, at other times it is like a wall of water, moving in and overtaking you before you have the time to catch your breath. They happen at night, during the day, while you are driving, at work, you name it. They can both run and ruin your life at the same time and if you’ve never experienced them you can not even imagine the anguish that they can cause. I’m talking about anxiety or panic attacks. Discovering how to control panic attacks is the first step in healing your mind and body from the problems that they cause. Panic attacks are no laughing matter, and as a sufferer of them I can tell you that not only do they affect you while you are in the middle of one but sometimes waiting for them to hit you again can cause you an ongoing anxiety that just gets worse when they strike. I have found some things that have helped me to control my panic attacks and that have improved my quality of life. The first thing that has really helped me is to take B vitamins. I suffered from years with chronic debilitating panic attacks before I discovered that they were partially due to a vitamin deficiency. By taking the B vitamins I was able to lessen the blow to a certain extent. The other thing that I did was to do a lot of meditating and praying. This helped me more than you could imagine. Although it is difficult to live with anxiety attacks it is possible to overcome them either partially or entirely. There are plenty of success stories out there that are both inspirational and helpful in winning your own fight against panic attacks. It’s time to stop the panic and anxiety attacks for good. There are some natural methods that are helping hundreds of people to finally have relief from their panic, and it can help you too.

Enjoy The Journey - As A Community Fundraiser

By Patrick Mc Erlean An essential component of your fundraising strategy is for you to enjoy the journey to success. That means enjoying each of your small victories along the way. If you’re always looking for the overnight success formula you’re doomed to a life of frustration. That formula simply doesn’t exist. Success comes with knowing what to do, planning your steps and taking action faithfully, until you achieve your goals. Since I’ve started using the powers of persuasion as a foundation for community fundraising through relationship building, I’ve found my fundraising surprisingly painless. Quite often its been lot of fun! How can you find fundraising fun? I hear you ask. When I first discovered relationship building using the powers of persuasion I instinctively knew that it was the answer to the vast majority of my fundraising problems. What I couldn’t figure out was why I was still feeling a gnawing sense of frustration. Even though I figured out what I needed to do, planned the required steps, and started to take action, I was still feeling uneasy. It took me a couple of weeks but I began to realise the problem was, that my success still seemed a long way off into the future (probably six months to a year). Like most people in todays world I had fallen into the trap known as instant gratification. Sadly in todays world we have become instant gratification junkies! Most people jump from pillar to post in search of the lifes magic formula for everything from their love life to their job. Instant gratification causes people to be very short on patience. It saddens me the number of times I see people, who have been armed with the right tools, failing because they simply run out of patience. Those same people spend their whole lives switching from one method to another, and because they never give anything a chance to produce results, they rarely achieve their goals. To get an insight into the average person these days all you have to do is look at how they approach the Christmas period. Most spend weeks looking forward to it and when it arrives its over all too soon for them. The result is that they are depressed again because the next big holiday or event seems so far away. Many have practically put life on hold, waiting for Christmas. Imagine what if would be like if you were looking forward to every weekend like it was Christmas? Now imagine you have the same feeling when looking forward to each and every day! This is what started to happen to me and my fundraising, when I began to set smaller goals, that I knew I could achieve in a fairly short time period. Ok, so it wasn’t quite the Christmas feeling every day but hopefully you can see what I’m getting at. I slowly began to realize that the key to enjoying the challenges of fundraising (and of life) was to set a series of small targets and enjoy the victory of achievement, associated with each. This series of smaller victories eventually lead to me achieving my bigger goals. I was no longer so obsessed with the big prize at the end and as a result I barely noticed the time flying by. In the end it turned out that the big prize was really just another milestone in a never-ending journey. Over this past few years, I’ve spoken to many people who’d arrived at a point in their life where they felt like they’d achieved most of their life’s ambitions. Surely that is a fantastic place to be? Well, yes, but don’t expect it to last! Most of these people were surprised to find they had a feeling that something was still missing. The thing is, that its just human nature to want to make progress. No matter what you achieve there’ll always be something else. When you can accept this and start celebrating each achievement in the knowledge that its only a stepping stone, then you’ll be truly successful (and happy). If you apply this philosophy to your fundraising, I’ll guarantee you that you’ll start to enjoy it again. Life is for living in the here and now. By all means plan for the future but dont live for it. All successful people enjoy the journey to success. They know that a series of small victories lead to the big prize. Enjoy the journey because success takes time and more importantly its a never-ending journey. You may not always be a fundraiser but while you are be sure to enjoy that journey. About the author: Patrick Mc Erlean is a long time community fundraiser for his local sports team. Almost six years ago he discovered a innovative new people-focused approach to fundraising. Now it is fun again and the long term future of his club is all but guaranteed. http://www.community-organization-fundraising.com Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Patrick_Mc_Erlean http://EzineArticles.com/?Enjoy-The-Journey—As-A-Community-Fundraiser&id=246019 buy used car with no credit check paycheck tax modeler 0 interest personal loans money lender act 1951

Dating Strategies That Work: Languaging for Shy Guys

By Susan Dunn Language is a behavior potentially under our control, and a powerful loop. Its how we act upon the world, and how the world acts upon us. Its how we express our thoughts and feelings, and it also influences our thoughts and feelings. This includes what we say to ourselves as well as what others say to us. Barring physical force, language is how we get what we want. Being able to name something gives power. Im not talking about naming furniture. Im talking about the hard stuff. Its the nameless dread that gets to us. We can deal with I hate asking women out and risking rejection. (After you read this article, youll reframe that as Its unpleasant to risk rejection, but Ill guts it out to get what I want. If you can name reactions, you can think and plan a strategy. When you realize theres fear (of losing her) behind your anger (shes going on a vacation alone), you can avoid doing something stupid. A pounding heart and blind anger are good for telling you what you want, not good for getting it. A man doesnt always choose a verbal strategy, but it must be in your repertoire, and its womens #1 strategy. How do people know youre shy? Once you show up, they know from your languageverbal and nonverbal. At a party, a shy guy hangs back, walks the edges of the crowd, doesnt interrupt a formed-group, waits for permission to speak, and says little. Eye contact is brief, gestures small, and posture tense. Its as if hes trying to make small. Compare this to the mating strategy of most male animals who puff up, bellow, rear on their hind legs to appear taller, extend their arms and beat their chests, and make big. The message is, Look at me. Ive got it. You want it. Come get it. Women who see a shy guy think hes in distress and they either want to change you (kick your butt), avoid you (dead end), or help you ([s]mother hen). Do you like those options? Im not telling you what to do, but if your shyness is keeping you from getting the women you want, you might want to try something different. 1. Manage your self-talk about women. Locker-room talk with the guys happens, but if thats how you refer to women in your own head, objectifying them as body parts is going to manifest and youll drive the good ones away. Get neutral and positive in your head. Your date isnt a babe, a dog, a ball-buster, or a heart-breaker. Shes a woman, shes got a name, shes got traits, qualities, and a personality. And dont tell me men fall in love visually. Thats like saying toddlers throw things when they get mad. We have a 50% divorce rate going on right now, and it isnt because a man trying to marry a pair of legs is such a great idea. The divorce rate for second marriages is 60%, and for third, 70%, which means those that didnt learn the first time, dont learn again, and thats the definition of insanity — doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Marriage is a lesson in learning TO love A REAL HUMAN BEING, not falling IN ove with a turned-up nose, which requires EQ, and if you made a bad call, like choosing a woman whose bra size is bigger than her IQ, its one long painful trip to hell that can wreck your health and finances. Its particularly risky to marry a woman 20 years younger. The odds are against you, heavily, and smart guys play the odds, right? You would have to be at least 40, and the statistics say the older the man at the time of the divorce, the more likely it was the woman who filed. Ergo, shell be the one to leave. If the man did it for ego, he has dug his own grave, which is what ego creates. 2. Manage your self-talk about dating. If you say, Im too shy. I always get turned down thats a self-fulfilling prophecy. Youre better off counting sheep! Best bet, reframe: I have what it takes. Im doing fine. 3. Manage your language when youre out. This takes practice. What you need to do is amp up enough to get noticed, and to get treated right. The best way to do this is with coaching. Also observe a man whos getting what you want. Its a set of behaviors, like a tennis serve. It can be learned. Learn and practice now, not when shes got your head spinning. We dont practice punts and passes in a game. We practice before, with a coach. AS IT HEATS UP, AVOID THESE: 1. Tunnel Vision. Seeing what suits you, not whats going on. Think straight. Waking up once with a coyote-girl is expected. Finding out you married an addict isnt. 2. Taking It Out of Context. She emails you that you sure were grumpy last night when you were hungry. You tell your buddy its over because she shes a nag. She said you were grumpy. 3. Arbitrary Inferences. On the third date, dont look at her in that slinky black dress and infer (1) she sleeps around, or (2) she wants to have your sons. Shes dressing that way because thats how she dresses. 4. Overgeneralization. Over-reacting to something small. Its been 3 months, youre in love, and that night shes late. Dont think, Shes late. She cant be trusted. Shes irresponsible. 5. Polarized Thinking. If you start wanting her bad, you dont have two choices (1) ask her to marry you now, or (2) dump her so you dont have to go through the pain. You have 100 options. Every time. Thats EQ. 6. Magnification. You go on your first vacation together and she spends money like a drunk sailor. You think, I cant marry this woman. She ll bankrupt me. Likewise dont awfulize it. Yes you can stand that out-of-control feeling you get when youre with her. Its love, cowboy. Its supposed to feel good. (Like bull-riding feels good, right?) 7. Biased Explanations/Negative Labeling. Shes testy with the waiter one night, and you make an isolated incident based on fatigue into a character flaw. She lets another guy kiss her on the cheek. You label her the s word and suddenly shes evil. 8. Personalizing. Sensitive Shy Guy, there are reasons why people do things that have nothing to do with Yo. Shes quiet tonight because she has a cold. 9. Mind Reading. Its a good way to get your heart broken. One girls I love you means forever after. Anothers means Great party and youre cute. 10. Divine Right. The feeling is strong, its yours, so its justified and immutable. Not. If youre mad, you can get unmad. And it isnt someone elses fault. True you wouldnt be mad if she hadnt lost her keys, but someone else wouldnt be mad because she lost her keys. (Honest!) Susan Dunn, MA, THE EQ COACH. Helping shy guys get the girl.

How To Plan Your Own Wedding

By Rick Johnston Every bride wants their day to go off without a hitch and as beautiful as their every dream about it! Like most brides I had a hard time making sure everything was taken care of so that before hand I wouldn’t loose a lot of sleep wondering if I had remembered to buy something or if the cake topper came in. In planning a wedding, I feel it is necessary to pick ideal date(s). With this idea, if there is a conflict with a hall or caterer, you will still be pleased with your date. I find that booking your hall and caterer first seem to help everything else fall into place. Once your hall and caterer have been chosen and booked, making arrangements with a Disc Jockey, or DJ, and finding a florist is the next step and by calling around for the photographer and asking other people of their experiences, you will be sure to find a photographer that you will be satisfied with. By trying to keep in mind all of the booking dates as well as bridal accessories to go along with the dress, the days I needed to make payments, making sure we had the hall, caterers, photographers, DJ, flowers, it all just seemed too overwhelming. It is with all of these things in mind, I would like to share with every future bride out there, in order to help their time go easier. First thing is to get a notebook and write everything down and dates. This way you know what you have taken care of and what is still needed to get done. This helped to evade that dreaded experience of not being prepared. The next thing is I got a container to keep track of all of the odds and ends of the wedding that I didn’t want to hunt down the day of the wedding. By buying a container, I was able to keep my shoes, purse, wedding cake topper, garter, jewelry, and ring bearer pillow, guest book, receiving line items (bubbles) all together. The planning process shouldn’t get to you; after all, this is your day and should be the way you want it. I am sure by doing this you will also be able to keep track of things and making sure that the little things are being taken care of, ensuring that the plans were good on the hall and DJ, the place making the wedding cake, the caterer and menu. It is these simple steps that can help you to keep on top of things as I went about the planning process.

Acupuncture Clinics - Ancient Wisdom With a Modern Twist

By Brian Winkels With the ever-increasing popularity of acupuncture as an alternative medicine, it’s shouldn’t be all that surprising to learn acupuncture clinics appear to be popping up in virtually every American city of any size. As a result, receiving treatment that will help restore good health is becoming more and more popular at acupuncture clinics. Acupuncture clinics are a great place for getting timely diagnosis, treatment and patient care. The patient receives individual care and their case can be discussed, studied and reviewed with a qualified acupuncturist. Appropriate acupuncture points and treatment techniques can be identified that will suit each individual patient. Chinese Herbal Medicines In addition, some acupuncture clinics offer a variety of treatment options in addition to traditional acupuncture like Chinese herbal medicines. For those who are not sure of which is best being face to face with a staff member can really help in making an appropriate treatment decision. Acupuncture clinics also focus on treating other health issues like: menopausal symptoms (i.e. hot flashes and fatigue), PMS and heavy periods, gynecological problems such as period pain, endometriosis, asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, headaches and migraines, anxiety and panic attacks, depression, auto-immune conditions like lupus and a host of other ailments. When faced with a health condition that traditional modern medicine can’t diagnose the next logical step many people are now turning too for help is an acupuncture clinic. All treatments are considered safe with virtually no known harmful side effects. One example of an acupuncture clinic is the Po Ji Tang in San Francisco. The Po Ji Tangs philosophy centers around complete health care. They believe and follow a holistic, preventive approach to pain relief and they offer a number of healthcare services in addition to acupuncture like: dietary and nutritional counseling, herbal therapy and traditional Chinese medicine is used to treat patients having a great number of different emotional, physical and psychological issues. More and more are turning to acupuncture clinics because they embrace the use of traditional Chinese medicinal herbs in combination with acupuncture, whose effectiveness is thus increased due to synergy. Unlike modern medicine, acupuncture clinics spend time learning the patient’s background, lifestyle and habits before diagnosing and chalking out an effective treatment plan. To begin with, many patients receive treatments once a week which is gradually reduced as their health improves. All in all, going to acupuncture clinic should result getting professional treatment from a registered medical practitioner using time proven methods of natural healing without having to rely on drugs.

Kids and Medication Part I

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Lance_Winslow] Lance Winslow We have all talked a lot about the problems in our educational system, about latchkey kids, about teacher turnover (50 percent of teachers quitted within the first five years on the job), psychologists over prescribing medications such as Prozac and Ritalin with our friends and families. We can all foresee a terrible problem in the future because we are feeding these drugs to kids under the age of six, their brains have not been fully formed yet and these drugs and their predecessors and competing drugs all have adverse side effects. There are over 10,000 chemicals that the brain reacts to, there are over 2000 chemicals in the brain in any one time, in your brain is reacting to 20 or 30 of those chemicals in a big way. And along comes in new enhancements. Why because we’re not allowed to discipline or own children, we might be turned in for child abuse. God help you if you smacked her child for mouthing off, hitting their siblings, or general rude behavior. Benefit teacher doesn’t they can go to jail to. So what happens when Johnny is bad the sandbox; he is put into a corner as a punishment away from the other kids and we call this a timeout. On the other hand if we give Johnny a Swift kick in the rear, then maybe he might learn something. When he acts out they put him in a corner and then he wants attention, so he further misbehaves; so the teacher says into the office and the principal calls in a special psychologists who refers little Johnny to the medical nurse, who calls Johnny single mom at work which embarrasses her, you see Johnny’s father left and he is a deadbeat dad, unwilling to pay for Johnny’s costs even though he brought Johnny into the world and now Johnny’s mother doesn’t know what to do, so they convince her that her child has ADHD. When in reality Johnny is just like all the other kids a little hyper all the time probably has to much sugar at home in being young has just a ton of energy. Since Johnny lacks the discipline of a child under supervision, without father around he isn’t a lot of trouble as do most kids were not discipline. But instead disciplining Johnny they decide to drug him instead. Johnny now is on drugs and ever been really discipline ever assumes that he has a problem because his mother, teacher, nurse, Dr., principal say so. Now Johnny has lower expectations of himself as do his elders best Johnny performed on to that ability which is right around 0. Johnny acts off gets into trouble, becomes a juvenile delinquent tries a few drugs with his friends does a little graffiti causes of any crimes and decides to join a gang. Where is mom, trying to make ends meet without the assistance of Johnny’s dad who has skipped how sold his construction company to a friend who pays them five dollars an hour. Thus Johnny’s dad is unable to make restitution and the courts changes restitution to such a small amount it isn’t even worth Johnny’s moms trouble to try to collect. And it’s certainly isn’t worth her trouble to share custody rights. So when you look at George W. Bushs plan to keep the families together, especially low income families where the mom has to work and support for kids you can see the incredible problem we have in why something must be done. Either we have discipline the schools and When two people have the kid they stick together and raised a child in a responsible for child or we all pay later for more prisons, prison guards, rehab facilities, police officers student faculty support employees etc. do you know right now that the nurse gives a child and aspirin that child must get a note from their parents. However if that child needs an abortion, that child can get an abortion without the school ever contacting the parent, give me a break. The easy issues affect every employer at the store level due to unmanageable employees they might have and their productivity goes South all too often, this affects their ability to work and pay into the system or advance in a company. When a kid does drugs and gets into trouble we all pay. If that child grows up into a life of crime it costs more to keep that child in prison for one year that it does to send them to two years of college, so you figure it out either we drop the BS stop over Medicating and start disciplining or we will pay later and we will pay dearly. We just have to stop feeding our kids drugs for mood enhancement. We know these drugs have side effects. Lets look at these for a bit one by one. Adderall is a amphetamine which is taken once per day and stops areas of the brain responsible for organizing thoughts; it has some very real side effect such as rapid heart beat, high blood pressure and sometimes over stimulation and can become addictive. With Concerta it keeps the neurons with lots of norepinephrine and dopamine, which reduces hyperactivity and inattention, and its side effects include head aches, stomach pain, sleeplessness and can cause over stimulation. Strattera was the first non-stimulant which enchances norepinephrine levels in the brain and also has some serious side effects, which include; decreased appetite, fatigue, stomach pain and nausea. Ritalin is an active agent, methylphenidate to stimulate the brain to filter and prioritize incoming information. But the side effects we know too; Headaches, lack of appetite, irritability, nervousness and insomnia. Methypatch is the patch form of the methylphenidate and delivers continuous doses through the skin.

How to Spot a Cheater

By Steve Ubah Is your man the cheating type? Here are some clues to help you find out if he is cheating. Please note that just because you feel your man is cheating, does not mean that he really is. Make sure you have some hard facts before you make a decision that could ruin a relationship, It may just need a little bit of work and some trust on your part. But if you suspect that he is cheating, here are some clues that could help you decipher what your man is really up to: Has his work routine changed dramatically? It will be very easy to assume that his late nights at the office could mean that he is having an affair, but that is not always the case. Find out why your man has to spend additional time at the office. Does he have a project coming up, or a major report with a tight deadline? Call him at the office and see if he will answer his office phone. If he does not, it could mean that he is up to something. If his office is close to your home, take a drive without telling him you are coming. When you get to his office, try to locate his car. If you cannot, call him and tell him to come outside to get a takeout dinner you have for him. And be sure you have actually bought some food, so that you can use it as your excuse to drop by his office unannounced. Is he still affectionate toward you? Has there been any change in the way he shows his affection? Is he pulling back from you for no just reason? If your guy is not under any kind of pressure from his job, and you have not quarreled with him lately, but he seems to be holding back his hugs and kisses, there may be cause for you to have your antenna up. If he starts criticizing things he never criticized you about in the past, then you need to have your eyes and ears open. Does he want to hang out with the guys more these days? If he suddenly starts going out on weekends to party with his friends, without asking you to come along, then you know that there could be more to his sudden need for weekend excitement. When he tells you he wants to go out, ask him about what specific club he wants to go to. You may have to do a little stalking to get to his real motive. When he leaves, give him about a thirty-minute head start, then make your way to the place he says he will be with his friends. Look for his car in the parking lot. If he is there, go in and find a hidden corner of the place to spy on him from. If he has a woman in his arms, then you know the likelihood of his cheating on you is quite high. If he is just having fun with his friends, just quickly find your way home. If you find him in a compromising position, do not confront him or the person you have caught him with, and never let him know that you had followed him to the place he told you he was going to. If you look for his car and do not find it, it may be that he has dashed over to his new loves home to get his affair on. Does he not want to pick up certain calls on his cell phone in your presence? Does he frequently avoid taking certain calls that come to his cell phone when you are around? It is normal to not pick up every single call that comes to your cell phone, but if this kind of behavior happens more often when you are with him, then it is possible that he is avoiding speaking with a new love interest. If it happens more often than you can bear, then ask him directly why he seems not to want to take calls on his cell phone, and watch for his reaction. If he acts a little nervous or gives you that nervous laugh, you can bet that there is something he is trying to hide. Does he get upset more often over little things? Is he starting to get upset over little things that never upset him in the past? Does he want to start a fight with you, just so he can stomp out of the house and stay out for a long time? Does he seem to get easily irritated when you put his things out of place, especially when things like that really never bothered him in the past? Has he started talking often about getting tired of you and the relationship? When you have small disagreements does he bring up the fact that he is getting tired of you? If he starts suggesting that perhaps you should break up or give each other a break for some time, especially when you have not done anything serious that warrants such a drastic action, then you may be right in suspecting that he may be itching to start something new with a silent love interest. Whatever you do, be sure not to conclude too soon that your guy is cheating. The important thing is to watch the changes in your guys behavior, and try to see if there are any inconsistencies between his words and his actions. Be certain he really is cheating before you take any action. If you think he is cheating on you, there is a proven way to catch your cheating lover. There are some interesting things you can do with your computer to gather the information you need to nab a cheating lover. Did you know that there is a way to secretly record everything that is typed on your PC by anyone at any time emails, chats, instant messages, etc? Good luck.

Nine Steps To A Successful Home Equity Loan

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=James_Ellison]James Ellison Here is nine methods to ensure you have taken measures to shield your home and your equity: 1. Browse around. Costs can deviate greatly! Get hold of some lenders like banks, savings and loans, credit unions, and mortgage companies. Inquire with each lender about the best loan for which you meet requirements. 2. Examine the annual percentage rate (APR). This APR is the most significant thing to compare when browsing for a loan. this takes into consideration not only the interest rate, but also points (one point equals one percent of the loan amount), mortgage broker fees, and certain other credit charges the lender needs the borrower to pay, stated as a yearly rate. Mostly, the lower the APR, the lower the cost of your loan. Ask will the APR change? 3. Ask about points and other fees that you’ll be responsible for. The charges may not be refundable if you refinance or pay off the loan ahead of time. Also if you refinance, you may pay additional points. Points are normally paid in cash at closing, but may be put into the loan. If you finance the points, you will pay extra interest and step-up the total cost of your loan. 4. The length of the loan. How long will you make payments on the loan? If you are acquiring a home equity loan that merges credit card debt and other short term loans, do not forget that the new loan may hold you for a longer period. 5. Monthly payment. What is the total cost? Will it remain the same or change? 6. Will there be a balloon payment? A balloon payment is a big payment normally at the end of the loan, frequently after a series of low monthly payments. While the balloon payment is owed, you must come up with the money. If you can’t, you may require another loan, which signifies new closing costs, points and fees. 7. Will there be a prepayment penalty? The penalty are added fees that may be owed if you pay off the loan ahead of time by refinancing or selling your home. Prepayment penalties may pressure you to hold on to a high-rate loan by making it too expensive to get out of the loan . Attempt to manage this penalty out of your loan agreement. 8. What happens to the interest rate on the loan increase if you fail to pay? A modified interest rate provision states that if you overlook a payment or pay late, you may need to pay a higher interest rate for the remainder of the loan. Try to talk terms where this provision is out of your loan arrangement. 9. Did the loan have a charge for any type of voluntary credit insurance, such as disability, unemployment insurance or credit life, ? Will the insurance premiums be included as part of the loan? And if so, will you pay extra interest and points and increase the entire cost of the loan. Without the credit insurance how much lower would your monthly payment be ? Does the insurance cover the duration of your loan and the full loan amount? When determining to buy voluntary credit insurance from a lender, consider about whether you actually need the insurance and correspond with other insurance suppliers about their rates.
