Day 4 journey to losing it

Day 4 journey to losing it

 

Sorry about the delay in posting friends. We woke to a severe storm and spent most of the day without power - then without internet. It was an easy day for losing it! We worked to clear branches from the yard, house, drive. We worked to cut up and haul trees form the neighbors. Many people suffered serious damage even right across the street. When we did get settled for a bit of eating we simply fed the hunger with a small sandwich on low calorie bread a handful of baked chips and back at the work! 

More than leave a diary account for every morsel of food put in my mouth I want to impress upon the general public how difficult being over weight is. No matter what we face in life or wake to in this case eating right and losing weight is a central focus in our everyday thinking. Unlike an average weight person who can sit to any and all food (NOW I KNOW NOT ALL CAN- I am generalizing). We the obese sector have to consider every bite of everything. Even more prevalent I believe is food addiction. We turn to food in stress, in fatigue, in relaxation. I am spending a lot of time watching my normal weight peers and learning form their behaviors. Often I am riddled with dismay as I could not possibly sustain the eating habits of many of the people around me and continue to fit into my already oversized clothing. 

What I am learning is life in general is a complex network of choices. We choose to be happy, we choose to accept situations, and we choose the food we put in our bodies and the outcomes it brings us. 
So friends as we continue to clean up after the storm here is to healthy choices and healthy thinking about food! 

It is important to limit fat and sugar in your diet. Fat is laden with twice as many calories as protein or rich carbohydrates. Reducing your fat intake will increase energy and sustenance. Sugar consumption will give you a quick jolt, but it is short lived and increases fatigue and cravings in the long run! 



 

• Studies show that people who consume many foods and drinks with added sugar tend to consume more calories than people who consume fewer of these foods. They also show a link between weight gain and drinking sweetened beverages. Cutting back on added sugars, especially from sweetened beverages such as regular soda and fruit punch, can help you and your family maintain a healthy weight.

• Added sugar provides calories but no additional nutrients. An eating plan that helps you and your family maintain a healthy weight is one that focuses on getting plenty of nutrients within your calorie needs.

• Many children and teens, especially girls, don't get enough calcium, a mineral that's important for strong bones and teeth and other body functions. 

CHoose protein, healthy natural foods, and lots of greens!

Day 2 The key to weight loss is finding what works for you

Today I am feeling pretty good! Cutting out sugar and garbage eating truly increases energy. I was not nearly as sleepy yesterday as I had been the days before. I cut way back yesterday avoiding the donuts so prevalent while I am in Missouri. That was hard friends. Dad loves his latte and donuts every day and sometimes twice a day. 

The key to weight loss is finding what works for you and embracing motivation to change your life I am not looking at how ugly I felt beginning I am only looking at today and those moments within my absolute control. What I did yesterday cannot be changed, but I can control and live in today! 

Yesterday's eating consisted of:

Sugar free Skinny-nonfat Latte (Starbucks)

Grilled chicken and Grilled potatoes

Low-fat 90 calorie Berry Yogurt

45 calorie slice of bread with half a slice of low salt ham (hunger took over before bed and I knew I would not be able to sleep.

Let me say - I am doing this with real food - real living and everyday obstacles. I am not proposing my diet is for everyone (I know what will work for me)! 

I have a very slow metabolism. For this I addressed it with walking 1.5 miles up and down the Ozark hills which I have been doing every single night since I have been here. 

I also ordered a mountain bike I am excited to get when I return to NM. I have not ridden a bike for 20 years so this will be thrilling! Wish me luck. 

I will post a before picture today as well as starting weight and goal. 

God Bless each person who reads this on your own journeys! Losing It Together!

This Lady Is Losing It

 

I am the mother of 5 children, 22, 20, 17, 12, 10. Like many mothers I did not look like Princess Kate throughout my pregnancy. I did not experience the breastfeeding drop in fat and pounds, and I did not resume my pre-pregancy size ever. Each pregnancy made me a little more pudgy. Each time I breastfed each of my children I fed them and I ate, sometimes I ate while they ate, sometimes after, sometimes before during and after. Let me tell you, each child was worth the deterioration to my body, but there comes a day when enough is enough and no matter how difficult it is you just have to force yourself to turn things around. That is where I am at today and this is my journey.

I was not always over weight and I have had many ups and downs. I have lost 70-90 pounds twice returning to my pre-diet weight time and again. This time I am changing everything I do for life - ti love life, to get back in the game, and to live until I am 90! I want the healthy life I have deprived myself of!

I hope to inspire, enlighten, and encourage anyone who has struggled with a life time of weight or a short-time with extra pounds. No one knows what it feels like to be over weight or live daily with the added burden of lugging around 10-100 extra pounds better than the person wearing those shoes.

So here I am in my 40's, 90+ pounds over weight and ready to do something about it. I have tried the following:
* Weight Watchers
* Doctor assisted weight programs
* Diet Pills
*Zenica
*Weight Watchers again
*Starvation and more diet pills.
* Two times dropped out of gastric bypass just before surgery (YES, I paid for all testing and counseling and just could not go through with it!)

Today I begin by putting one foot in front of the other and walking, I will eat 1200 calories and stop. I will drink water, and I will blog about the journey every day sharing pictures and progress as well as setbacks should I encounter them. I hope you will enjoy sharing this journey with me as - This Lady Loses It!

Tonight as I prepare for my journey I thank God for my life and the ability to make good choices to create a healthier body and soul!

Please join me in this journey and we can Lose It Together!

 The Fat Loss Consultant: Fat Loss Plans For Busy Professionals
Diet And Fitness Expert Nate Miyaki Combines Convenient, Flexible, And Sustainable Diet Plans With Real World Practical Application Strategies To Help Busy Professionals Lose Fat, Improve Health, And Overcome The Most Common Dieting Roadblocks

THE FAT LOSS CONSULTANT
Functional fat loss plans for busy professionals

---

With late night deadlines, long business trips, and corporate pressure, does your health profile look like a corpse-in-waiting? Has your six-pack turned into a keg? Has that daily muffin turned into a permanent muffin top hanging over your bikini bottoms? Has the…OK, OK, you get the point!

Now that you’ve made the decision to trim the fat, where do you turn for guidance? The main problem is that most of the nutrition information out there is written WITHOUT keeping the specific demands and obstacles of the busy professional in mind. The Fat Loss Consultant was designed to help solve this problem. It combines convenient, flexible, and sustainable diet plans with real world practical application strategies to help busy professionals lose fat, improve health, and overcome their most common dieting roadblocks.

The Fat Loss Consultant Includes:

Part 1: Functional Diets for Fat Loss

In most diet books the practical information gets buried beneath pages of science and theory. We've pulled out the barebones details of exactly what you need to do so you can get started with one of the plans TODAY. We have provided a variety of options to fit your specific situation, including The Sedentary Caveman's Plan, The Functional Three: The Business & Socially Friendly Diet, and The On-the-Go Intermittent Fast & Feed Option. Consider this your guide to flexible, functional, and sustainable dieting. Food charts, shopping lists, sample diets, and calculations (for the more advanced plans) are also included.

Part 2: The Complete Nutrition Manual

This is everything you'll ever need to know about optimum fat loss - a crash course in the theory and details behind a variety of dietary approaches. We'll cover food choices, macronutrients, meal frequency, and food distribution recommendations. We've pulled the best principles from Paleo Nutrition, Sports Nutrition, Fitness Nutrition, and traditional cultural diets. The best part is it's NOT a one-size-fits-all approach, and you will be guided into the protocol that works best for you.

Part 3: The Office 6-Pack Guide

Convenience is the most important diet factor for the busy professional, even more so than health; that's why fast and processed foods dominate office life. So we're going to give you the exact tools you'll need to make fat loss eating just as convenient as fast food eating. Many diet plans look good on paper, but they are not practically applicable in the life of a busy professional. We're going to change that. You'll get simple shopping tips, food prep tips, and ideas for how to make your office environment more conducive to the fat loss process.

Part 4: The Road Warrior's Plan

Too many trainers focus only on the absolute best-case scenario — eating only freshly prepared meals at home — and not the reality of a career on-the-go. We're going to show you how to eat for fat loss and health enhancement anywhere. With tools like "The Restaurant Rotation," "The Low-Carb Compromise," and "The Intermittent Faster's Option," you can make good choices anywhere -- from fast food to fine dining. Being on the road or on the go will no longer be a problem.

Part 5: The Coffee Shop and Happy Hour Handbook

Whether for business or pleasure, coffee and alcohol are as much a part of the busy professional's life as laptops and cell phones. Learn how what you order at the coffee shop can be your greatest weapon (or your worst enemy) in the war against body fat. You'll also find out how alcohol changes your metabolism and hormones, and what you should do to compensate for those changes. In other words, we're going to teach you how to limit the damage from your evenings on the town — both that night, and the morning after.

Part 7: The Nutrition Manual: Coach’s Edition

There is so much misinformation out there about losing weight. Most nutrition myths that have been engrained in us from a young age are completely FALSE. How do you separate the facts from the BS? Unbiased science. This system is not just an opinion or something I made up, but is based on real science. I've provided my resources and references with links to supporting studies on every individual topic.

Fat Loss for Busy People

Fat Loss for Busy People

Over the years I've met many men and women, of all shapes and sizes, at all levels of fitness.

And each was struggling with their fitness & fat loss goals for similar, but slightly different reasons.

First, let's start the busy man or woman that works long hours, isn't sure what to eat, and doesn't really know where to begin an exercise program. Plus, they have a tight budget.

Essentially, it's as if these people are stuck trying to move a large boulder uphill, but they just don't know how to get things moving.

Every quick-fix weight loss headline screams at them in the grocery checkout line. All the bad experiences from phys-ed or their initial attempts at working out in a commercial gym come back to haunt them.

And so they remain. Going nowhere, but obsessing about changing their bodies.

But where can they find the time, they think, as they drive to work for an hour each morning. Why did I eat that crap at lunch, they think as they drive home at night.

Where do I start?!?!?! No matter how calm someone says that to me, it comes out as a frustrated scream, with increasing intensity for each year that their dream body has been suppressed.

So I say to them, and to you, just try and do better today than you did yesterday - this applies to everyone.

After all, you can't do anything about yesterday.

So have an apple today if you didn't have one yesterday. Only 90g of protein yesterday? Try for 110 grams of protein today.

Only 1 vegetable yesterday? Try for 2-3 servings of vegetables today.

Slept through the alarm this morning and missed your workout? Set it again tonight, and set your workout clothes on a chair so you can jump into them in the AM.

And so on. I tell these people over and over that you can make your greatest fat loss gains simply by eating better. Eat foods in their natural state -- fruits, vegetables, meat, nuts (raw, not roasted in oil).

For exercise, there are a wide variety of bodyweight exercises that you can do anywhere. Squats, pushups, bodyweight rows, split squats, planks, side planks, Bird Dogs, lunges, etc. Stability balls are cheap, and can be found at Walmart. Second hand sports stores offer cheap dumbbell alternatives.

For men, you can even gain upper body muscle with a consistent regimen of advanced upper body pushes and pulls, including dips, chins, Shoulder-press pushups, and pull-ups.

With consistent exercise and natural nutrition, you could literally start seeing changes in his body in days, let alone months.

Just think, where could you be in 12 months, wait - 12 weeks - even 12 DAYS from now - if you improved your eating and exercise habits everyday?

One day, one step, one meal, one workout - at a time,

CB
