Calorie shifting – the simplest strategy to losing it!
Posted by: | Comments
Some people will tell you to do crazy things to lose weight, such as cutting out all carbohydrates, eating only cabbage for 2 weeks or following a complicated regiment of foods and pills. I am not one of those people who will tell you to do crazy things like that. I will keep it always very simple so that you can implement the advice easily. And see results quickly.
Today, I want to share a simple strategy that I advised a client; by the way, she experienced great success. It helped her to lose 55lbs. And it is as simple as shifting your calories.
When do you eat the most during the day? From food logs analyzed over more then 10 + years I see that the most calories are consumed at dinner. Relaxing, finally being able to sit down, having a drink adds the most calories. Read More→

When it comes to weight loss, longevity and/or a youngevity program half of the battle is getting
started. The other part is to stay on a program.
That’s why I have created the “Look, Learn, Do” Newsletters that correlate with the 14-day
nutritional and exercise programs.

Staying Turned On
Posted by: | Comments
Have you started a nutrition and/or a fitness program? Great! Your intention has moved you in the right direction. Yet once again, you are not staying turned on enough by the program and you are about to quit.
I will now tell you the truth as to why you don’t stay on the program in order to accomplish what you dreamed of. And please accept my apologies upfront if I offend you.
Reason number 1: Talking about it sounds better then actually doing it.
Sometimes I hear: “I will do anything that you say when you accept me as a client.” I am saying to myself:”Let’s see.” Although I say from the beginning that my program has 99.7% success rate, participation is required. If you don’t participate, it won’t happen.
Solution: Talk about the actions you have actually done today instead of what you are going to do.
Reason number 2: You are a quitter. Read More→

Make-over lunch recipe for MORE energy
Posted by: | Comments
What do you eat for lunch and energy? Definitely, light. All right, no light bulbs, obviously (I got this response on Twitter, you can follow me there as well.).
In the summer, we often feel sluggish and tiered during the day. Add on the extremes of temperature, smells and heat radiating from buildings and the disaster — a slow-down in function–is almost perfect. (Not in a good way!)
Therefore, lunch becomes a critical point. Can you take some needed energy into your system that doesn’t make you tired, drag you down or make you sleepy?
You might think about eating some lean protein. But here are the facts: Protein takes longer to digest than fruits. Fruits contain simple carbohydrates that contain vitamins, minerals and enzymes. Don’t mistake it with simple carbohydrates such as white sugar. Fruits are digested in the stomach for 30 minutes before they move into the duodenum. The breakdown of protein into amino acids takes longer as there are more chemical processes involved. In the duodenum, long chain polypeptides are reduced to short chain polypeptides, tripeptides, and dipeptidases. They are absorbed across the gut wall into the portal vein to transport the amino acids to the liver, the principal site of protein metabolism.
Confused about Protein Shakes?
Posted by: | Comments
There are so many reports coming out every day about what you should, could, or must eat.
Now, the latest scare is Protein Shakes. The Consumer Reports Magazine July 2010 tested protein powders for heavy metals such as cadmium, arsenic and mercury. In summary, it was found that some of the protein powders contents exceeds the maximum limits for one or two of those contaminants in dietary supplements proposed by U.S. Pharmacopei, the federally recognized authority that sets voluntary standards for healthy products.
Should you be concerned?
Lets look at some facts:

A Super Mom’s Secret to 30 Pounds Weight Loss
Posted by: | CommentsHow does a busy mother of three with knee pain on both sides (after two meniscus operations) and heart problems shed almost 30 lbs and drop 4 dress sizes all while continuing to cook for her family and herself?
A super attitude, with super motivation and expecting super results.
Judith wasn’t struggling her entire life with weight. Even after three children she was in fantastic shape and had a nice body. Then, as the children became older, became independent, less activity settled in. The fridge became a daily night stop. And a little bit of boredom set in. Slowly the weight started creeping up. Blood pressure rose. Medication for cardiovascular diseases where prescribed. And stairs became difficult to walk up.
In a bit of role reversal, it was one of her children Read More→
