Thoughts on Weight Loss
What are your thoughts on weight loss/weight management? Do you see weight loss as a goal, or as an outcome from healthy decisions? Perhaps the old adage of “You are what you eat” could also be “You are what you think.” Many of us, myself included, tend to sabotage ourselves rather than support ourselves with our thoughts, beliefs, and the way we treat ourselves.
My Facebook Page this week is focusing on different thoughts and patterns that different people have. Some may apply to you, others may not. I know as I looked down the list there are some who apply to me more frequently than others. Why the focus on thoughts? Continue reading →
Common Weight Loss Mistake–Not eating enough
You’ve decided that dropping a few pounds would be beneficial for your well being, and make those jeans fit better, so you think to yourself, EASY!!! I’ll just cut my calories in half, drop a few pounds, and all will be well.
WRONG!
Yes, you can lose weight by dropping your calories, however, when you drop too many calories, you run the risk of slowing your metabolism by dropping muscle mass. On most diets you lose fat AND muscle mass, then when you go off the “diet” you put the weight right back on. (plus some in my case)
Instead of forgoing eating, perhaps, eating with a purpose, and eating foods that support your metabolism, are balanced to provide you the nutrition needed to maintain your health and well being.
RIGHT!
Look for trusted systems that couple sound science with complete nutrition. Avoid chemicals or pills with side effects. Natural solutions that help maintain your muscle mass and perhaps even boosts that metabolism.
I broke the cycle this way, and have maintained my 55 pounds of weight loss for 5 years, easily. (update – it’s now been 8+ years…)

Tips to starting your weight loss trek
You’ve decided to do something to get back to a healthy weight. You’ve shifted into 1st gear by making that choice and now you are ready for 2nd gear and to begin taking the unwanted pounds and inches off your HUMAN chassis. Some of these you will have heard before, but when you put them all together, they can be powerful!
- Begin keeping a journal of everything you eat AND drink! (hmmm sound familiar?) — Sometimes we don’t even realize how much we are taking in, or we find out our habits are starving our body and that is from where the problems stem.
- START drinking more water — ideally 1 ounce of water for every 2 pounds of weight. (# pounds/2 = how many ounces you should be drinking daily) — This allows us to begin eliminating toxins in our system and allows for faster fat burning.
- Cut back on your sugar intake — sodas, highly processed carbohydrates, white sugar.
- Increase your fiber content — more raw veggies, and use products with higher fiber content —LOOK at the labels.
- STOP all artificial sweeteners!
- Increase your activity — even if it’s just adding a short walk after dinner — Get moving!
- CONGRATULATE YOURSELF! You are doing something to make your life better and you are setting a great example for our youth!
Give us a call to get started, remove that over-inflated tire around your middle and get back on the track to healthier living!
