TOTAL MEAL

3 chicken strips
4 mushrooms
8 spears asparagus
2 Tbsp (about) olive oil
Peppers, Pepper
Seasoning to Taste

Total Calories: 230

The more oil, the more calories. I didn’t eat most of the oil (that which didn’t cover the chicken and mushrooms was thrown away).

It’s not the healthiest meal ever (fried) but the calories and carbs are really low, and I’ll be full all night!

Always, I drink at least 16 oz of water as well.

Sometimes I’ll follow this up with a salad but I was just too full this evening
Happy healthy eating!

So you have got your diet clean and healthy and you have been following your exercise program for a month now but you are getting discouraged with the results of your weight loss so far.

Now WHY you may ask yourself?
The fact is you MAY NOT be consuming enough water.
It sounds rather stupid really because all you ever read about to maximize your weight loss is to - follow a good calorie controlled clean diet and exercise, but not many people mention the important element - WATER. I, for one never give it a thought anyway until now.

Water is in fact one of the most important aspects in any weight loss plan and it is A VITAL FUEL for your body’s vital organs to not only work but to recover quickly. As most of us know, the hard part is sticking to your new diet plan and exercise program and even though, you may have achieved this already. However, by not consuming enough water you could actually be hindering the process and not optimize your results.

Let me explain… most probably, you may already know the process and system that takes place inside your body called “metabolism”. Well there is in fact many forms of metabolism inside your body but in this case, the most important one when it comes down to weight loss is your metabolism of fat. Now one of the vital organs within your body known as the liver. Liver is the main component in metabolising the fat which means taking your stored fat and making it available as energy to be burned away. So with this process that the liver carries out, it allows you to effectively burn away all that excess fat in your body thus producing weight loss.

Now you might be thinking what water has to do with this. Well, another vital job for your liver is to help out the kidneys within your body and effectively help do their job properly. Think filtration, your kidneys actually thrive on water and when they are deprived of any fluid they slack off and your liver is left to pick up where they left off thus preventing the liver from metabolising your stored fat. So by keeping your body well watered, would provide your vital organs including your kidneys with the water they thrive, which then assists each and every organ to focus on there own jobs to keep your body ticking over nicely. Deprive it and the organs within your body will not work to their maximum potential which in this case is to assist you in your weight loss journey.

Besides including water in your weight loss program, it also helps in your health and wellness in the long term and is great for the skin and keeping a clear mind. Sacrifice that cup of coffee in the morning for a glass of water, preferably tepid water and see if you can feel the difference. The main point to remember is that water is your friend and is there to help your body, deprive it and you will hinder the process of weight loss so by applying this simple rule it just adds more armory to your arsenal in the fight against fat.

Don’t forget to aim for at least 8 glasses(8 fl.oz) of water a day into your body which isn’t a lot when you think about it. If you are currently overweight a further 8 glasses per extra 25 pounds worth of body weight is advisable. Cheers!

Diets are akin to fads and they promise results in practically a blink of an eye. But in the long haul, even though some of them are beneficial, they could still be harmful to your health!

So what really are the Myths and Truths about Dieting?

Myth: Low fat or non-fat means no calories.
Truth: Many low fat and non-fat foods contain high sugar content to improve their taste so in actual fact, they are definitely not low in calories.

Myth: High protein and low carbohydrate diets are a healthy way to lose weight.
Truth: A drastic reduction in carbohydrates can in fact cause some problems. An example, fluid loss that at may make you feel faint and dehydrated.

Myth: Certain foods like grapefruit, celery or cabbage soup can burn fat and lose weight faster.
Truth: There is no scientific evidence yet that these food will make any difference, except making your diet very tedious.

Myth: Starches are fattening and should be limited when trying to lose weight.
Truth: Complex carbohydrates are very important to our body as they provide us with fibre to prevent constipation and are vital nutrients to maintain our overall health.

Therefore, dieting is not the real full answer to permanent weight loss. The best way to keep to your ideal weight would be to make your own plan and design it the way you want it, instead of following someone else’s plan. Besides your well customized plan, choosing the correct food is of utmost consideration in a balanced diet.
