We are stronger than we think we are

Millions of us face overwhelming challenges with food and weight that feel impossible to overcome. But we’re stronger than we think we are. We can lose weight and keep it for good. While weight loss can be challenging, it is achievable and many people are successful.

High nutrient eating


Knowledge is the power. There is a lot of distorted understand and misinformation about what constitutes excelled nutrition. Learning how the foods you eat affect your weight gives you the power to rapidly create weight loss. Once you understand the fundamentals and see amazing rewards of healthy eating, you will feel comfortable eating fewer calories.

High nutrient eating is the most successful route to weight reduction and better health. The secret is to eat high-nutrient, low-calorie foods that will provide you with the most needed nutrients without feeling hungry. I did it and I know that it is possible. Wrong food choices brought you to where you are now. Changing what you eat may feel a little uncomfortable at the beginning and takes some effort, but in my opinion it is the best way to lose way without feeling hungry.

Taking a positive approach

Sometimes even the good things in live, like holidays, can throw our healthy habits into a tailspin. I think it happens to many of us at some point. I need to get back to what worked for me best when I started losing weight and use the same way of thinking that had made me start eating healthy then.

I will try to use this as opportunity to further evaluate my situation, determine why I moved away from strict compliance with healthy eating and plan what I will do to prevent it from happening in the future.

When the holidays are over

Did you gain weight between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day?

I did. I think that weight gain during the winter holidays happens to many people. Eating clean during this time is hard. A certain amount of indulgence is practically unavoidable over the holidays.

There are things I can do that will help me get back to the game.  So now, when the holidays are over, I am getting back to better compliance with clean eating, the simple formula to that led me to 91 pounds weight loss success before.

My breakfast step by step



 

 
 
 
 
 
 
I start my day off with a good breakfast. Breakfast helps me prevent hunger later on. It jump-starts my metabolism and sets my body in the optimal fat-burning state. The protein consumption (a slice of lean turkey), when eaten as part of the daily first meal reduces my appetite throughout the day. It is very important for me to stick with protein breakfast option. Initially it was a little challenging because proteins are usually not a part of typical "breakfast foods".

Do we eat more in the winter?

The winter months bring cold weather, holidays, and the potential for weight gain. For me winter is a challenging season when it comes to weight loss.

Do we eat more in the winter? I think we do eat more during the winter time. There’s something about the winter that makes us eat more. Part of the weight gain may be because of our tendency to stay indoors and snack more than we do during the summer.
Developing goals that focus on healthy eating habits for the winter makes it easier to optimize eating winter holiday meals. Healthy winter eating habits can really make a difference with holiday weight control.  

What do you do to prevent winter weight gain?

New Year's Resolutions You Will Stick With

On January 1 many of us make all kinds of promises that “starting tomorrow, things are going to be different.”

How can we take advantage of our good intentions on January 1 and make them work for us throughout the year, or at least for longer than they would naturally last?

For long-term success, a detailed and sustainable action plan is key.

Take advantage of these moments of clarity at the start of the New Year and take actions that would commit us to making good decisions in the future.
For many people the New Year means a fresh start, and another New Year’s resolution.We are determined to make 2014 the year we stick to our health and fitness goals.
And while making the resolution to lose weight is easy, keeping it, can be a challenge.
However, when you are convinced that losing weight is more important than what you are giving up, then you are ready for action and you will likely succeed.
