Best Way to Lose Weight!

What is the best way to lose weight? Truthfully, it's not a FAD diet, and no it's not what you hear about in Hollywood. I can assure you there is plenty of nip and tuck! However, the only true way to heal the body and start shedding fat and pounds is to cleanse the body and eat truly healthy foods.

While many of you reading this have tried just about everything in the book, you are all different so don't forget that. However, the one thing we can all do is make sure our bodies get the necessary nutrients it needs to shed fat and burn calories.

So, is there really a best way to lose weight? There is, and I am going to share with you what you need, what you can eat, and the nutrients your body needs to turn into a living, breathing, example of health and light!

Best Way to Lose Weight is in Your Kitchen! 

Just in case you didn't know, the best way to lose weight is actually right under your nose. It's what is in your kitchen. Unfortunately, the American diet is void of nutrients and our diet consists of mostly fast food! 

Having said that, it's time for us to really focus on what we are eating every day at every meal. For example, an Egg McMuffin from McDonald's isn't healthy for you at all, and it's loaded with fat and sodium. Now that they have an egg white breakfast sandwich, thousands are rushing to the fast food joint to claim they have a healthier selection. 

Is that really true? 

The selection really isn't any healthier, in fact those of you that want to shed weight, and carry it in your middle section, rear end, and thighs, should be eating grains at all. That Egg White Delight contains the following:

1. Grilled egg whites
2. Canadian bacon
3. White cheddar 
4. Toasted English Muffin 
5. 250 calories
6. 18 grams of protein
7. 7 grams of fat 
8. 32 grams of carbs
9. and a whopping 800 milligrams of sodium! 

I mean, are you ready to pass out yet and get a triple bypass? This is just the beginning, but be careful of what you put into the body! Those muffins are so addictive and dangerous! 

The sad part is, plenty of Americans are moving to these, but missing the whole point of getting in ample exercise! Can you see the irony of all of this? It's time for you to really wake up and smell the coffee, and skip that breakfast sandwish lol!

So, what can you do to change your life for the better? 

Best Way to Lose Weight is Better General Nutrition

Okay, so the bottom line is you can't just buy vitamins in a bottle, or even do injections and eat whatever you want. It doesn't work like that! 

However, you can make small changes, or just go to the no sugar no starch and the weight will just fall right off of you. You need high quality vitamin B if you are struggling with energy, and yes you can find it here. You also need other high quality nutrition which you can find when you click on the banner!

I hope that you have enjoyed reading this blog on the best way to lose weight, and feel free to check back often for more nutrition information! 

Female Bodybuilding Dilemma We Face Today

Sorry I've been on hiatus, and I can't say I blame you if you have been researching other blogs about female bodybuilding. Although I admit, it's a curious thing. It's curious from the standpoint that not only do women struggle with their self image, but let's face it, women get beat up daily on how they look.

I mean, men can throw on jeans and a t-shirt, and just look sexy, but for us gals, it's hair, makeup, clothes, the style, the look, the attitude, everything.

I enjoy being me, but it took me a loooong time to get to this place. I had to work on my insides if you know what I mean, but that doesn't change the fact that we need to take care of our body. Right? This is why female bodybuilding is still a hot topic for me, and between me and some girlfriends of mine.

I would like to just start a discussion here for all women on how they feel about themselves physically, where they are now, and how all of us can come together to change this position of insecurity, and self criticism. Life is beautiful and so are you, and so, it's time for you my friend to step into your greatness!

Why Female Bodybuilding Has Been a Hot Topic

Okay, so bodybuilding isn't really for everyone, but I am talking about how most folks define female bodybuilding. We should all be building our bodies, but it all starts with good nutrition, not a fad diet. 

If you have been reading this blog, you know I support the HCG diet, and that is true. However, I don't think everyone should do it. It is a great way for the body to detoxify, and it's the best way to reset the hypothalamus gland by waking it up with a massive thermogenic effect. 

While there is a ton of science and research behind it, it is still under scrutiny to this day. Some think it's extreme, but I really think cutting out your stomach is extreme, not to mention cutting open your chest  and breaking your sternum to get to your major valve. 

Before I get off topic here, I say all of that to say this; the body, no matter whose body we are looking at or talking about, needs nutrients, and the modern day diet in America isn't enough. The average American diet meets the following criteria:

1. English muffins or toast in the morning and bottled orange juice loaded with sugar 
2. Fast food lunch washed down with a soda 
3. Fast food dinner with more greasy food and burgers that are made with beef loaded with hormones etc 

How could this be good for anyone? 

It isn't, and we are now hearing more about superbugs in the meat as a result. You can follow a bodybuilding plan, but the reality is that unless you eat whole foods, and put pure nutrition into the body, you won't be able to see and feel the changes that you want. 

Here is a great infographic that spells out what the American diet looks like today:

If you look at this, and you can see what is represented here, you can see that the evidence is clear. The American diet leaves very little room for nutrition, and plenty of room for fat, calories, heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and a myriad of other diseases. 

What Female Bodybuilding Should Really Consist of 

So, with nutrition being at the core of my beliefs about female bodybuilding, you should know that yes, I used to bodybuild, and no I didn't compete. In my mind it wasn't for show, although I have tossed around the idea about figure competing. 

Bodybuilding for women needs to start with a proper education in nutrition, and this means a thorough assessment from a medical doctor that has a holistic view on your health and medication. If you haven't watched the film "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead" on Netflix, I highly suggest you do. 

You'll find that Dr. Joel Fuhrman is fantastic, and you should absolutely read his books! You can also check out the vitamin injections, weight management products, and supplementation you'll find when you go HERE. 

I hope that you found this helpful, and no, this wasn't intended to promote any bodybuilders. My point was to:

• Get your attention
• Make you think about what body building truly means (building the body from the inside out) 
• Give you some encouragement on how to feel better and look better as a result 

Once you make these changes, you'll look and feel more vibrant too! So, go watch that movie, and research whole foods and start making a list you like. Feel free to email me or comment below and let me know what you are doing to feel better too! 

To Your Health,
