Hello world! This picture below is what I have decided is the most valuable information that I myself can give anyone who is wanting to lose weight. I feel you need to be very knowledgeable in what you are doing so you can make good choices! What I have learned the most so far is YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. Even if you do go to gym daily if you choose not to eat healthy you will still gain weight. I know this is not easy when you have a family or spouse who eats everything. (hint,hint my fiance.) Which brings me to my next topic.
I recently read a article in Weight Watchers magazine called, "LESSONS FROM LOSING" and I want to share with you some valuable information. The author David Kirchhoff had some very valid points that I found interesting and that I may not have thought about too much until I read this. So it goes:
- Most of the food and activity strategies that helped them lose are the SAME ones that help keep the weight off.
- We still live in a food-centric culture that constantly tempts us with occasions to eat.
- We can all learn to master our environment to take control over our relationship with food and activity.
So here we earn the MOST important lessons are these: 1) Develop HABITS (willpower is over-rated) 2) Manage my personal environment. 3) Don't live in deprivation.
My next topic is HOW TO SURVIVE BRUNCH SEASON! I read this article and KNOW this would be very helpful since summertime is coming up and you get out more and more for a brunch to hangout and catch up with a girlfriend. Here is how to avoid over eating!!! :)
- Think of brunch as lunch (Have something light to eat at home a few hours before heading out)
- Order first (Weight-loss rule of thumb, no matter what meal you're ordering) WHY? you will less likely be swayed by others' choices. I LOVE this tip!!!
- Be a food snob. (Don't waste calories on bland bagel. CHECK online reviews of the restaurant)
- Say, "I've had enough".
I'm glad this was put in the WW magazine. I really love this magazine it has a lot of tips in it. Now I know when this summer comes up I won't have to avoid brunches I can EMBRACE them with more ease! <3
Here is my GYM inspirational picture of the day :)
LOL. Sooo true! At first when I didn't workout to be honest one of my EXCUSES was I didn't want my hair to get messed up and I really did not like sweating. Well, let me tell you what...I love sweating now! When my workout is over I know what I accomplished IS WORTH sweating! "A healthier me".
TIP of the day:
I found this lovely picture on pinterest! I thought this would help some of you and it is very clever and...Why? did I think of that? haha :)
Lastly, I would like to share also from pintrest I found this healthy little snack I decided to try. It is blueberries with GREEK yogurt (honey flavored) and well, it got a little messy and the taste...LOL. I'm not a fan of GREEK yogurt but love blueberries so I eat this frozen snack with a funny face BUT I know it is healthy so I eat it :) Next time I will sub. the GREEK yogurt with regular fat-free yogurt.
I hope the pictures inspired you and you found some tips that will help you continue your healthy lifestyle :) If you have any topics you would like me to look into please feel free to leave a comment!
Stay Strong! and Gym. Tuna. Laundry.
