I’ve never been very open about any weight loss before, because I knew I did it, but I didn’t know how to maintain it. My weight has fluctuated my whole life but now I understand that it’s completely in my control. I’m proud to say I’m smaller than I’ve ever been in my adult life and I plan on keeping it this way! My goal has never been to be skinny, but to simply feel confident and comfortable in my own skin. A BMI chart didn’t tell me my goal weight.. my health, happiness and self-esteem are what guide my eating habits. Weight is just a number and jeans come in every size, to be proud of yourself is all that matters and that goal, I have achieved. #happiness #progress #weightloss #hcg #hcgbuydirect #beforeandafter #transformationtuesday #tt We love to hear about the great success our clients are achieving in weight loss, and better yet, life by feeling like the person they were meant to be. and who knows, may be your story will inspire others like we certainly hope Mel’s has.

  Is junk food creeping back into your home? If your family has a taste for ice cream, chips, cookies, and other unhealthy (but tempting!) foods, it’s almost impossible to prevent them from reappearing in your cupboards. So how can you ensure that your house is temptation-proof?Create a Temptation-Free Kitchen:To help you maintain your healthy lifestyle, try these suggestions for ridding your kitchen of foods that aren’t friendly:Plan a monthly cupboard cleaning to throw away any unhealthy foods that have somehow sneaked back in.If foods are still packaged, consider donating them to a food bank.Make it clear to your family that certain unhealthy foods should not be brought into the house. Or, if that suggestion creates havoc, create a separate out-of-eyesight snack drawer or cabinet where they can stash their snacks.Don’t allow yourself to succumb to impulse buys when shopping: Avoid the grocery aisles that contain chips, cookies, and other baked goods or junk food. Instead, shop for fresh vegetables, reduced-fat or fat-free yogurt and cheese, and nuts and seeds — all good. Plus, whole-grain crackers, air-popped popcorn, and baked whole-wheat tortilla chips are good choices. You can separate them into single-servings and store in plastic sandwich bags to keep portions manageable.If you’re looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, choose sugar-free hard candies, a no-sugar-added Fudgsicle, sugar-free gelatin, or a sugar-free popsicle. Just be sure to count them toward your daily recommendation of 75-100 calories of Sweet Treats. ...read more

    To help streamline your visits to the grocery store, take along a shopping list of items you need to prepare your meals for the week. Having this list in hand will help keep you on track with your healthy shopping efforts. Remember that it’s also okay to be flexible when it comes to any sale items you know you’ll be able to use for upcoming meals. While the perimeter of the store offers fresh produce, lean meats, low-fat dairy products, and frozen foods, don't forget to shop the center aisles too. There, you'll find other healthy items, like whole-grain cereals; extra-virgin olive and canola oils and vinegars; seasonings and condiments; lower-sodium soups, canned beans, and other vegetables.Produce.Load your cart with a variety of fresh, nutrient-dense, fiber-rich vegetables, like spinach, zucchini, broccoli, tomatoes and bell peppers. Also, stock up on fresh fruits too, including apples, oranges, berries, pomegranates, cantaloupe, and honeydew.Dairy.There are many healthy items to choose from in the dairy aisle. For instance, part-skim ricotta cheese, and low-fat cheese are all considered excellent lean protein choices. Low-fat and fat-free milk count toward your daily dairy requirement (2 servings per day ), as do low-fat and nonfat plain yogurt. You can also find unsweetened or artificially sweetened soy milk (avoid any containing more than 4 grams of fat per 8-ounce serving) in the dairy aisle.Meats/Seafood/Poultry.Focus your attention on lean cuts of beef and poultry, which include eye of round, ground beef (sirloin, lean, and extra-lean), tenderloin, top loin, and top round, as well as turkey and chicken breast, pork loin, and pork tenderloin. Fish and shellfish are also good choices. Get to know your fish seller — you should aim to eat fish at least twice a week. (Limit consumption of types of fish that contain high levels of methylmercury, including shark, swordfish, king mackerel, and tilefish.)Frozen Foods.The frozen aisle offers reasonable prices on vegetables and fruits that aren’t always in season. Most frozen food companies now use a technique called flash freezing, which helps preserve the flavor and nutrients of foods. You can also find soy-based meat alternatives in the produce and freezer sections. Look for those that contain fewer than 6 grams of fat per 2- to 3-ounce serving. If you have a sweet tooth, try frozen fudge bars with no added sugar.Miscellaneous.Other foods to seek out from the middle of the store: nuts (avoid honey-roasted or sweetened varieties), canned (or pouched) light tuna fish, sugar-free gelatin, sugar substitutes and natural sweeteners like agave nectar, extracts, vegetable juice blends and tomato juice, sugar-free diet sodas, and sugar-free drink mixes. ...read more

A Guide to the C Vitamin The C vitamin has got to be the most widely known vitamin these days. It is not surprising because the body needs C vitamin for over 300 functions. In fact, the c vitamin has been proved to help protect against heart disease, cancer and other serious illnesses. Without the c vitamin the body would not be able to heal itself either. This is because the c vitamin is vital for the formation of collagen. Whenever a person has a cut or an injury it is the collagen that helps repair the damage and without sufficient c vitamin this would be almost impossible. Collagen has a multitude of functions in the body, including keeping the organs in place, and it would not be able to do this without sufficient c vitamin.The C vitamin is also an antioxidant for the body and helps other vitamins and minerals to be absorbed better. Folic acid and iron, for example, need the c vitamin to maximise their usefulness. The more C vitamin that the body has, the better its defence against colds and other common ailments and the c vitamin may not prevent a person catching a virus but it does help speed up the recovery process.There is C vitamin in almost every fruit and vegetable but some have far higher c vitamin content than others. Cranberries and melons have high c vitamin content. In fact, tropical fruits have the highest C vitamin amounts of all fruit. Hot peppers are amongst the richest sources of the c vitamin when it comes to vegetables. The hotter the pepper, the higher its c vitamin content is. Unfortunately, the C vitamin is water soluble so many vegetables lose their effectiveness as a c vitamin provider if they are boiled for a long time. Steaming or quick stir frying vegetables ensures that more of their C vitamin content is retained. The recommended daily amount of the c vitamin is easily obtained from eating five portions of fruit and vegetables a day if they are consumed raw or cooked quickly.C vitamin supplements are extremely useful to ensure that people obtain sufficient C vitamin. However, with a balanced diet the amount of C vitamin the body receives is likely to be sufficient. However, if a person begins feeling tired or lethargic then a C vitamin supplement will help overcome this. There is no danger of having too much C vitamin as the body simply excretes the excess.For this cause we have to take Nutrilite Bio C which full of Natural Vitamin C an essential antioxidants which will help us to live long life.NUTRILITE® Vitamin C Plus Extended Release Product DescriptionThe 500 mg of plant-based vitamin C you’ll get in NUTRILITE Vitamin C Plus Extended Release comes from acerola cherries.

HCG diet really saved my life. Here is my personal story and journey to successful weight loss:   I really needed to have two knee replacements and was devastated when the doctor told me he would not do my replacement unless I lost weight and basically handed me a wheelchair. I was so frustrated trying for so long to lose weight when my knees were hurting so much I couldn't do the exercise I needed to do in order for any diet to work.  I have tried so many diets and even had a gastric bypass that didn't work for me and I wish I never had done that in the first place.   One day I had a friend tell me about the HCG diet.  I never heard of it before and was willing to try it.  It basically came down to either getting the weight off or getting a wheelchair that was not a pleasant feeling to say the least.  I did the HCG diet and had great results!  My first month I went to a clinic and did the releana and couldn't afford to keep going since I had so much weight to lose.    I was looking on the Internet and saw so many sites it made my head spin I found one HCG diet site that I liked and it was something I could actually afford.  I ordered my HCG Diet drops fromHCG Buy Directand it came in a cute package and I was really excited!  I started the HCG diet program; I followed everything by the book. The first 28 days I dropped 30 pounds it was amazing, like every morning I woke up being shocked on how much better I looked, I was loosing weight (that I never could get off before. So not only did I loose weight (for me it was pretty much one pound per day) also, my skin looked better, like the areas I was loosing weight my skin tighten up and got smoother so I didn't get the saggy mushy parts where I lost weight (I hope that makes sense) even my make up went on better, my family told me I had a healthy glow which made me happy. The diet is pretty low calories and at first I didn't think that would be enough food to survive on (I'm an eater AND Italian!) :) But doing the HCG drops along with taking a natural appetite suppressant it wasn't bad at all. You have 2 meals a day that consist of a protein and vegetable and two fruits a day, so I made it easy for myself and made up my food for the whole week, so twice a day I grab my measured food I made this easy dressing to put over it, and I just grabbed my fruit and just did it! And when u see results like this it's all worth it. The drops I put under my tongue in the morning, afternoon and once at night. It does not taste bad at all, hard to explain what they taste like but I would describe it as mildly sweet nothing yucky at all.   I am so pleased with this program and on my 10th week and I DROPPED 60 Pounds!!!  Five and a half months I lost a total of 101 POUNDS!!!  Now to date I have lost aTOTAL OF 155 POUNDS!  I can hardly explain the feeling, it’s like happy, blessed and amazed all wrapped up into this one great feeling.  I honestly say this is by far the best program I have ever done and I truly feel it has saved my life; yeah the HCG diet has really saved my life.     My sleep apnea is gone, I no longer take my arthritis medication anymore, I don't need it.  My asthma is almost non-existent and I no longer need to take my expensive medication anymore.  I also had severe edema in my legs that caused painful swelling that I also no longer have and no long need the medication as well.   I totally understand about be skeptical of another diet, I have wasted so much money on other stuff and with the economy being not so hot I was worried about spending the money on this for myself, but I did it and I can tell u from the bottom of my heart, that I wish I found this stuff years ago! So much of life we miss out on when you feel to heavy to enjoy things like the beach, swimming pool parties, buying clothes that you actually want to wear etc.   They do have my pictures on their website now after losing the 155 pounds if you ever want to see them. It's HCG Buy Directwww.hcgbuydirect.comand I'm so happy to help anyone I can. :)   Good Luck to you and have a healthy day! :) ...read more

This is More Than a Vanity Issue! byMike Geary, Certified Nutrition SpecialistThis article applies to dangerous types of fat inside the bodies ofboth men and women... and this discussion also applies even if you only have a slight amount of excess stomach fat. Did you know that the vast majority of people in this day and age have excess abdominal fat? It's true -- as much as 70% of the population in some "westernized" countries such as the US and Australia are now considered either overweight or obese. The first thing that most people think of is that their extra abdominal fat is simply ugly, is covering up their abs from being visible, and makes them self conscious about showing off their body. However, what most people don't realize is that excess abdominal fat in particular, is not only ugly, but is also adangerous risk factorto your health. Scientific research has clearly determined that although it is unhealthy in general to have excess body fat throughout your body, it is also particularly dangerous to have excess abdominal fat. There are two types of fat that you have in your abdominal area. The first type that covers up your abs from being visible is calledsubcutaneous fatand lies directly beneath the skin and on top of the abdominal muscles. The second type of fat that you have in your abdominal area is calledvisceral fat, and that lies deeper in the abdomen beneath your muscle and surrounding your organs. Visceral fat also plays a role in giving certain men that "beer belly" appearance where their abdomen protrudes excessively but at the same time, also feels sort of hard if you push on it. Both subcutaneous fat and visceral fat in the abdominal area are serious health risk factors, but science has shown thathaving excessive visceral fat is even more dangerous than subcutaneous fat. Both types of fat greatly increase your risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, sleep apnea, various forms of cancer, and other degenerative diseases. Excess stomach fat has also been associated in studies with higher levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), an indicator of inflammation within the body that can lead to heart disease and other health issues. Part of the reasonvisceral fat is particularly dangerousis that studies show that it releases more inflammatory molecules into your system on a consistent basis. One of the major reasons that some people accumulate more visceral fat than others can be from a high carbohydrate diet that leads to insulin resistance over time (years of bombarding your system with too much sugars and starches for your body to properly handle the constant excess blood sugar) ... and studies show that high fructose intake particularly fromhigh-fructose corn syrupcan be a major contributor to excess visceral fat. If you care about the quality of your life and your loved ones, reducing your abdominal fat (including reducing visceral fat) should be one of your TOP priorities! There's just no way around it. Besides, a side effect of finally getting rid of all of that excessive abdominal fat is that your stomach will flatten out, and if you lose enough stomach fat, you will be able to visibly see those attractive six pack abs that everyone wants. So what gets rid of extra abdominal fat, including visceral fat? Is there actually a REAL solution beyond all of the gimmicks and hype that you see in ads and on commercials for "miracle" fat loss products? The first thing you must understand is that there is absolutely NO quick fix solution. There are no pills or supplements of any sort that will help you lose your abdominal fat faster. Also, none of the gimmicky ab rockers, rollers, or ab belts will help get rid of abdominal fat either. You can't spot reduce your stomach fat by using any of these worthless contraptions. It simply doesn't work that way. The only solution to consistently lose your abdominal fat and keep it off for good is to combine a sound nutritious diet full of unprocessed natural foods with a properly designed strategic exercise program that stimulates the necessary hormonal and metabolic response within your body. Both your food intake as well as your training program are important if you are to get this right. I've actually even seen a particular study that divided thousands of participants into a diet-only group and an exercise&diet; combined group. While both groups in this study made good progress, the diet-only grouplost significantly LESS abdominal fat than the diet&exercise combined group. Now the important thing to realize is that just any old exercise program will not necessarily do the trick. The majority of people that attempt getting into a good exercise routine are NOT working out effectively enough to really stimulate the loss of stubborn abdominal fat. I see this every day at the gym. Most people will do your typical boring ineffective cardio routines, throw in a little outdated body-part style weight training, and pump away with some crunches and side bends, and think that they are doing something useful for reducing their abdominal fat. Then they become frustrated after weeks or months of no results and wonder where they went wrong. Well, the good news is that I've spent over a decade researching this topic, analyzing the science, and applying it "in the trenches" with myself as well as thousands of my clients from all over the world to see what works to really stimulate abdominal fat loss. From my research, two of the most important aspects to getting rid of visceral fat are: 1.The use of high intensity forms of exercise and full-body resistance training. Low intensity cardio exercise simply isn't as effective for removing visceral fat in particular. High intensity exercise such as interval training or full-body weight training are very effective at helping to improve your body's ability to manage glucose and increases insulin sensitivity, a crucial step in removing visceral fat. These types of high intensity exercise routines are also very effective at increasing your fat-burning hormones and creating a hormonal environment conducive to burning off abdominal fat, including visceral fat. 2.In addition, it's vitally important to get blood sugar under control to help restore insulin sensitivity through the right nutrition. This means greatly reducing sugars and refined starches in your diet (including fully eliminating any use of harmfulhigh fructose corn syrup!), and focusing more of your diet on healthy fats (such as avocados, nuts, seeds, coconut fat, olive oil, free-range eggs, fatty fish and fish oils, etc), as well as increasing protein and fiber intake. The standard diet recommended by the government, which contains an unnaturally high grain intake is NOT conducive to controlling blood sugar and reducing visceral fat! Reducing grain-based foods in your diet and getting more of your carbs from veggies and high fiber fruits such as berries can go a long way to helping to solve this problem. ...read more

One of the best ways to lose body fat is by cutting calories. It is proven by research and science that the more calories an individual take in, the more calories their body must use up to prevent gaining weight, especially body fat. If an individual eat lesser calories than they burn, they will lose body fat. So, in the nutshell, losing weight is reducing calorie intake. Do not panic, fortunately, there are plenty of easy and realistic methods in reducing calories without sacrificing a healthy or delicious meal. Most of the weight loss diets are just a temporary way of losing weight. In order for an individual to reduce calories and convert to a healthy diet, they need to make huge and long lasting changes. Avoiding whole food groups by deprivation or drastically limiting food consumption is not the best way in which to do it. The best and most recommended way to reduce calorie intake is to do it in slow and small ways that will not going to be hard to practice, but have good results. Here are some fantastic ways to cut calories without losing out. Cutting Calories Tip 1 Fat and calories are two very different things. Certain food may be low in fat, but actually, they are loaded with calories. Remember, always read the labels before buying them to make sure that the food is really low in calories. Cutting Calories Tip 2 Be creative. Use low calorie ingredients to make your favorite traditional dishes. You can easily replace fatty and unhealthy ingredients with healthy low calorie ones in the recipes. Most low calorie food taste just as good as their counter parts. Cutting Calories Tip 3 Choose lean meats. Choosing lean cuts over fatty ones and trimming the excess fat and taking off the skin from the meat can help you cut down loads of unwanted calories without changing much of the taste. Cutting Calories Tip 4 Consume low calorie dairy instead of the full cream ones. Little that you realize, by taking low fat dairies, you are able to cut down calories easily. You do not have to change all your dairies to low fat ones, try different low calorie options to see which taste best. One may not like low fat cheese but loves low fat milk. Cutting Calories Tip 5 Have a meatless meal once or twice a week. Meat contains loads of calories and not to mention the cholesterol. Taking one or two meatless meal a week can help you reduce calories tremendously without mentally affecting you. Cutting Calories Tip 6 Empty calories are useless calories, so avoid them. You can get empty calories from foods that have no nutritional value at all. A fantastic example of an empty calorie food is soda. Soda contains lots of calories but its not nutritious at all. It also contains lots of sugar and flavoring which is unhealthy for the body. Cutting Calories Tip 7 Control that alcohol intake. Alcohol is also an empty calorie food. Besides being a useless food, alcohol is also a food that can be consumed without paying much attention being paid to how much they are consuming. Drinking responsibly is a good thing for everyone, with the added bonus for the waistline.         ...read more
