There are several factors that can affect the performance of your elite proxy. Having an elite proxy is a great way to change your IP and be anonymous online, but if you make the wrong decisions when picking a proxy provider or setting up your own proxy, it may turn out that using your proxy to surf the internet and do your usual daily online work is a very painful process. It is not uncommon for some proxies to be so slow that it honestly would be faster to use a dialup modem. There are a few things you can do to make sure that your own proxy experience is as fast as possible. This way you can avoid wasting both time and precious money that many people make when they are trying to find a reliable proxy server setup.

The first thing you can do to make sure your elite proxy runs at a decent speed is check where it is hosted and how it is connected to the internet. Just like your home computer, the speed of your elite proxy is affected by its own internet connection. There are varying types of connections and if you aren’t careful you may end up with a proxy server running on a small bandwidth connection. What this usually results in is that your proxy server gets bottle necked when you are trying to surf the internet. It will take much longer than it should for web pages to load and files to download. You should choose a proxy server that as a 100Mbit connection and higher. If you pick a speed lower than this then you will see a big drop in the performance of your proxy. This is the easiest way you can ensure that the speed or your proxy server is as fast as it possibly can be.

Another trick to making sure you have a fast elite proxy is to ping it. Basically you need to check the connection between your home computer and where the elite proxy is located. Ideally you are looking for a connection response of less than 250ms. The ping command will measure the latency between your home computer and where the proxy server is hosted. Latency any higher than 250ms will mean that surfing the internet via the proxy will be slow and unresponsive. You will notice increased delays when you are loading new pages and trying to download files. Generally speaking, picking a proxy server that is close to your home will mean that the latency is lower. The further away the proxy server is, the higher the latency and delay while surfing the internet. Any speeds of 250ms and lower should be fast enough for most people.

When setting up your own elite proxy, always be sure that you make sure the proxy server is connected to the internet with a 100Mbit and higher connection. Furthermore, be sure that your own home computer has a relatively low ping with your proxy. An elite proxy that is setup on a narrow internet connection or has a high ping will mean that you will see noticeable speed problems when trying to surf the internet. Nothing is worse than surfing the internet with a proxy server that is slower than a dialup modem.

One that is going to work for you and that you can realistically keep up and achieve your goals. This whole process is for and about you! You are not to beat yourself up nor aim for someone else’s ideals. What do you want?

To fit into the next lower size, be a role model of health for your child(ren) or just plain make a change in the way you are and how you feel? It is helpful to do some of the following:

1. Take measurements of your body, arms, legs, waist, hips, and chest. You can go on-line and get information on body mass index. Keep in mind though, that if you are small in stature or very large boned, this is not taken into account. The BMI does give you an idea of what your ideal weight should be. You may even want to go and get a physical and discuss your goals to your doctor. This also ensures you have no underline conditions and are good to go with your plan.

2. Take into account what you like to do. For example, dance, walk, work out with a video, do the treadmill or join a gym. What will help you continue in your goals? Write it down what you will do in order to obtain a healthier you. Or if the gym is your decision, go and sign up soon and see about instructors or even a personal trainer if available and you can afford one. If not, see if you can get a friend to join in your regime, and encourage them to encourage you.

3. Eating habits are important too in obtaining a healthy you. First label this as “Good Choice Eating Habits” not a diet. Discard or give to a food bank, any foods that are not good for you. You want to stick foods like veggies and fruits, poultry, lean red meats, low-fat dairy, beans, and low carb foods into your refrigerator and pantry. Just as an insight, I personally stay away from snack foods that are the 100 calorie individual packages, because I just seem to eat 3 of the packages at a time!

4. Write down what exercise you will do and do not attempt to change your schedule. For example, when starting, waking up early may not be for you. But if you skip your high calorie cappuccino of plain coffee, park further from the doors in the parking lot and take the stairs it may be a start for you. Then from there, walk at lunch or after work, hit the gym and do a few reps of each machine or go home and turn on your favorite tunes and dance your “self healthy”.

5. Write down food that goes into your mouth, each and every time. Plan the night before what is for breakfast. Then, start a plan by packing your lunch with healthy foods (you can even do this if you stay at home and stick to what is bagged for you that day-You will not look further into the refrig.) For dinner try to keep it simple with mostly veggies and a “fist-size” portion of meat/protein. Eating healthy is not always simple to start, because it does require some preparation, but after you cut up veggies, put fruits in front of the bins and get rid of fatty foods, it is all worthwhile.

6. Do not weigh yourself everyday, do not expect immediate results and do keep a diary of how you are doing in your eyes.

7. Remember Rome was not built in a day, so go for the long haul and make it an everlasting routine.

8. Last but not least, you can enjoy a treat now and again within reason. You don’t have to exercise every day but do try 4 times a week and at least for 20 minutes. And look at this entire change as positive and worth all of it… just for you!
