How to eat during Thanksgiving and not gain weight

11/21/2016

0 Comments

 
On average most people can gain 7-8lbs during the Thanksgiving holidays. With the work parties and family and friend invites all you do is eat! Many different types of carbs from mashes potatoes to rice. Also meat galore from turkey, chicken, and rib eye! Name it all the delicious and juicy foods come out at this time of the year! We love it! BUT....this also is when we gain weight...not good weight! We gain a few pound that usually gets rolled over the next year, our high blood pressure goes up, our salt intake is high, our sugar levels spike through the roof with amazing desserts!  What do we do?! 

Here is the easy steps to eat it all in portions and still be full and satisfied! You won't have to miss a bite of any of your favorite foods by just following a few simple techniques! 

1. Eat a healthy snack or meal before the big dinner
2. Drink water before you eat.
3. Stay consistent with your exercise and do it in the morning where you burn more calories.
4. Add an extra 20 minutes to your daily cardio routine
5. Listen to your inner alarm when it says stop eating!

If you follow these few simple steps you may gain 1 or 2 pounds or none and still eat all food you love during the holidays without sacrificing your heath and figure. 

Happy Thanksgiving!

Snacking Healthy Series: Mini Meals

2/7/2010

Mini Meals
Many experts are recommending several smaller meals throughout the day instead of the usual three. By eating at regular intervals, your blood sugar levels (and therefore your energy levels) remain stable. So, instead of that mid-afternoon crash, you'll be full of vigor through dinnertime!   Eating every few hours (especially if you chew on fruits and veggies) can also help add extra nutrition that might be missing from other meals.

Snacking Healthy Series: Add snacks to subtract pounds

Snacking Healthy Series
Add Snacks to Subtract Pounds
While some dieters happily accept when someone suggests a snack, others feel pangs of guilt when a nibble is merely suggested. However, there is nothing inherently wrong with a bite between meals. In fact, snacking might be the missing ingredient that will help you reach your weight loss goals.

But how can this make sense, since snacking theoretically adds calories?

Snacking doesn't serve to replace a meal. In fact, you should spread meals and snacks out by an hour or two, and snacks should total a couple hundred calories or less. 

Munching between meals can actually reduce your overall caloric intake by curbing overeating at your next meal. By controlling later binging, snacking can help you stay on track. You can actually use this to your advantage. If you know you are going out to a big dinner with friends later, for example, make sure you have a healthy snack before you head out so you're less likely to order (and finish) a large entrée.

Snacking Healthy Series: How You Snack Can Make or Break Your Diet

1/2/2010

There is definitely a wrong way and a right way to snack. You should avoid sugary items like candy and soda, and shouldn't be consuming enough calories to constitute a meal. Instead, steer towards foods that will satisfy you and keep you feeling fuller longer. Fruits and vegetables are always a safe bet because they are low in fat and calories. (Just be sure to avoid high-calorie dips.) Yogurt, fruit smoothies, even a slice of whole-wheat toast all make great snacks during the day. Combining lean protein, some healthy fat, and complex carbohydrates will help you feel fuller longer.

Myths and Truths #6

12/30/2009

Myth #6: No pain, no gain!

Truth: Exercise should not be painful! At the height of your workout, you should be sweating and breathing hard. You should not be so out of breath that you cannot answer a question, but should not be so comfortable that you can carry on a full conversation. That's how you know you are working at a good level. It's important to distinguish between muscle fatigue (feeling "the burn") and muscle/joint pain (sharp and uncomfortable pain during movement). Pain is your body's way of telling you that you're doing something wrong. Listen to your body. If it's painful, stop!

There's a lot of fitness information out there- some reliable, some not. The important thing is to ask questions. If you don't understand something or question the source, ask a qualified fitness professional for their advice. Sticking to the truths of these myths will keep you healthy, injury-free, and on track to meeting your fitness goals.
SWEAT! BURN! BUILD!

Myths and Truths #5

12/9/2009

1 Comment

 
Myth #5: You will burn more fat if you exercise longer at a lower intensity.

Truth: The most important factor in exercise and weight control is not the percentage of fat calories burned, but the total calories burned during the activity. The faster you walk, bike or swim, for example, the more calories you use per minute. Although you will be burning fewer "fat calories", you will be burning more total calories, and in turn, will lose more weight.

Myths and Truths #4

11/19/2009

Myth #4: Performing abdominal exercises will give you a flat stomach.

Truth: This is similar to Myth #1 below. The fact is, the only way to get a flat stomach is to strip away the fat around the midsection. This is accomplished by doing cardio/aerobic exercise (to burn calories), strength training (to increase metabolism) and following a proper diet. Abdominal exercises will help to build muscle in your midsection, but you will never see the muscle definition unless the fat in this area is stripped away.
