This is a blog that many people can relate to. Here we will give you all the latest weight loss solutions as well as health tips, diet tips, and the real facts on how to lose weight the healthy way.
Sometimes we just can't see the big picture. We do something and look for immediate results, not taking into account long-term effects. We are notorious for eating complete junk, seeing no real danger with it and carry on eating junk. But the minute we try something good for us but where are the results? I just ate a carrot, why aren’t my thighs shrinking?
We must have faith in a diet that will give us long-term health benefits of reduced risk of cancer, heart disease and be the most likely to ward off obesity and diabetes and boost our immune system. It is, as you probably could figure out, a plant-based diet.
We have been told over and over to eat fruits and vegetables and whole grains. Our bodies desperately need the vitamins, minerals, fiber and phytochemicals found in the plants, not the supplements. Heck, we need five to nine servings per day. Don't you know all this? Why aren't you doing it? Here are some ways to get those plants in.
Eat at least a cup of vegetables for lunch and for dinner. That’s four servings right there. Four down, four to go.
Add a handful of blueberries, strawberries to your cereal. When they are full swing, in-season, buy a couple of containers at a time and freeze them for later.
Check out the “bagged” vegetables for sugar snap or snow peas, broccoli or cabbage slaw medleys or stir-fry mixes. Mix together in a ginger dressing topped with chopped peanuts and crunchy noodles. Yum.
Taking care of yourself means taking excellent care of your heart. If you're ready to get started, check out our Heart Smart Program. We can help you make those important, everyday choices that mean so much to your heart's health -- and you'll lose weight to boot! Get started today.
Snack on baby carrots and humus; you get both vegetables and legumes (beans) with this snack.
Add bags of frozen or fresh vegetables to casseroles, pasta dishes, other frozen dinners, soups or pizza.
Stuff an omelet with low-fat shredded cheese, tomatoes, onion, spinach, peppers and mushrooms. Who’d a thunk veggies at breakfast?
