In 1871 Congress added a rider to the Indian Appropriations Act, signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant, ending United States recognition of additional Native American tribes or independent nations, and prohibiting additional treaties.n 1817, the Cherokee became the first Native Americans recognized as U.S. citizens. Under Article 8 of the 1817 Cherokee treaty, Upwards of 300 Cherokees (Heads of Families) in the honest simplicity of their souls, made an election to become American citizens.
Track and record your weight each week to see your progress. Losing 1 to 2 lbs. per week is recognized as being a healthy, sustainable rate of weight loss. One pound is equivalent to about 3,500 calories, so if you burn 500 more calories than you consume each day, you will lose about 1 lb. in a week. Follow a regular running program of 20-minute jogging sessions. The amount of calories that you burn each session depends on your weight and running speed.
You may burn up to 250 calories by walking for 30 minutes in water up to your chest. To burn that many calories you have to move your arms around in the water. For me, this is the equivalent of using an elliptical machine for 30 minutes, but is more than I generally burn walking for 30 minutes on a treadmill. Jogging in water may increase the calories you burn to around 350 for 30 minutes. But, 30 minutes is a long time to jog in water. Walk while moving your arms under the water so that they feel the resistance of the water. Make sure you move your arms in different ranges of motion so you exercise different muscles.
