Healthy Weight Loss Program.

Key to your success in losing weight and eating healthy is to plan your meals. Simply said if you fail to plan, you plan to fail. This is never more evident than when we are trying to eat healthy. Without planing your breakfast, morning and afternoon snacks along with lunch we will skip them or eat things that are detrimental to our health at worst and just not healthy providing the vitamins, minerals and nutrition we need at best. So the best solution is to plan.

Plan Your Meals in Advance.

The planning process starts when we shop. We of course need to plan the types of food we will be eating and shop for them accordingly. If we plan to eat 3 to 4 servings of fruit everyday we need to buy fruit for the week for us and our family to support this goal. The same is true for our vegetables, whole grains, nuts and beans. The planning starts before we go to the store.

Plan Your Meals For The Day.

Most people plan their dinners, but very few plan their breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and because we are often in a hurry it is overlooked and often skipped. Even if you are not a breakfast person so to speak it is very important to break fast. A piece of fruit or two, a quick vegetarian omelet, a bowl of whole grain cereal (hot or cold), or a meal replacement shake. Any of these offer a quick solution, prepared in 10  minutes or less and will start your day off right.

Meal Replacement Protein Shake for Breakfast.

I look for 2 things in my healthy breakfast. First and foremost is energy. Next is protein. I get my energy from fruit, juice, tea or a healthy energy drink; which are always a part of my breakfast routines. My protein comes from a number of sources. The best is my protein meal replacement shake. Why do I choose a protein meal replacement shake for my healthy weight loss program?

  • Protein builds and rebuilds muscle tissue including your heart
  • Protein assists in making body chemicals like enzymes, hormones for growth and other functions
  • Protein is necessary for bones, muscle, cartilage, skin and blood
  • Protein is the key ingredient for healthy hair and nails

Protein Meal Replacement Shakes:

  • Gives you energy
  • Support your immune system
  • Strengthens your muscles and joints
  • Add Antioxidants to fight disease
  • Add essential vitamins, minerals and nutrients
  • Provide fiber necessary for digestive health
  • Plus other benefits by adding, fruit, eggs, or ground nuts to the protein shake

All Protein Shakes are Not Equal.

Our bodies produce some essential amino acids and others we need to consume. As we age we especially need to consume more protein because we lose ability to produce some amino acids in the quantity necessary for optimal health and your weight loss program. Whey protein has proven to be the most complete protein that offers the 20 essential amino acids that we need. Your meal replacement protein shake should have whey protein as its primary ingredient plus serve as a nutritional vitamin supplement to support your total nutritional needs without adding excess calories.

By choosing a healthy protein meal replacement shake for breakfast you avoid McDonald’s (the number one breakfast in America) and you get all the essential nutrients you need to start your day right.

Be Blessed. Be a Blessing. Yes You Can Lose Weight.

Eat Healthy Today

A simple reminder to eat a healthy diet today. Avoid sugar and salt. Sugar and salt are both addictive and they are in all processed foods. Excess sugar and salt is a main reason for cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity and a myriad of other diseases. Do yourself a favor today and avoid them.

Seven Healthy Eating Tips

  1. Eat a healthy breakfast. Focus on protein and Fiber. Fruit is an excellent choice.
  2. Drink Plenty of Water. At least 6 to 8 glasses today. One glass every 2 hours.
  3. Eat 4 to 5 small meals today. Breakfast, morning snack, lunch, afternoon snack, and dinner.
  4. No big meals, but many small meals.
  5. Meat, sugar, salt, soda, sweets are not your friend. Avoid them today.
  6. Add nutritional vitamin supplements for your health today. Omega 3, Vitamin D, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamin B and Calcium are all good choices. Not necessarily in that order but they are all important.
  7. Fresh Fruit, Raw Vegetables, Whole Grains, Nuts and Beans make up the healthy diet God intended for us. Nothing more, nothing less. If you are not getting a variety of all of these food groups on a daily basis, your diet is not healthy. You need all of them.

Exercise Today

Nothing new. No fad diets or new found exercise program. Just go for what you know. The exercises you did in school as a child, the exercises you learned at the health club, the exercises you saw on television. They all work if you do them. But we need to exercise everyday. We need both cardio and resistance exercises. So if you walk everyday, Great! Add some light weight training. Grab some dumbbells and walk with them curling and lifting as you walk. Push ups and crunches work also. We need to keep our muscles tone and even build muscles. Not only will we feel better, look better, have more energy and generally be in shape, but exercise improves our health and helps us fight all kinds of disease like heart disease, cancer, diabetes, hypertension, obesity and so on.

Be good to yourself today. Eat a healthy diet and exercise. Your body will appreciate it.

Be Blessed.

Be a Blessing.
