STUBBORN FAT
Stubborn fat occurs for a reason
It is often a result of a decade or so of over eating and under exercising. And it is usually so gradual that you don't notice it. Part of the reason for this could be that your metabolism is slowing down with age but that is certainly not an excuse to blame everything on.... and yes strength training will help with that.
The answer to getting rid of extra fat has always been simple... just not fast (take note of the word fast, quick fixes are not the answer).
Eating healthy, being active and getting plenty of sleep is the magic bullet you need to lose stubborn fat, but be ware it will not disappear magically overnight, rather it will take time. So if you begin to focus away from your body image, and more to how much stronger, how much more energy you have & how much more confidence you have you will find that having a fit healthy body will become a life style change and not a temporary quick fix.
The most important thing to ask yourself is what is my definition of a fit healthy body... be true to yourself that is all that matters. Don't miss our event on the 22nd May Fitness starts with a positive mindset.... (details below)

 | Congratulations to Jan Tweedie. Jan you are a real inspiration to all of the clients at Fitness Fix. It has been amazing to see how quickly you have taken to exercise in a very short few months. I also love that you track your daily nutrition on nutrition complete and that you now know how to plan your daily calories to make sure that you have the right balance of protein, carbs and fats in your diet.... it certainly shows.

VIETNAMESE-STYLE PUMPKIN & POACHED CHICKEN SALAD
 This salad can be served warm or at room temperature so makes a wonderful warm salad option for winter, and uses the vegetables that we have in season. I came across this recipe in the cusine magazine and loved that it doesn't compromise on taste so it is perfect for anyone who wants flavour without the extra calories.

BEAT THE WINTER BLUES WITH VITAMINS & MINERALS
Are you ready for cold and flu season? If you want to help avoid being sick and feeling like you have to go to the doctor to get antibiotics and other drugs, now is the time to be thinking about prevention! This week we are looking at the benefits of probiotic....
Probiotic  Everything you ingest must go through your digestive system, which , in turn, provides all the micro and macronutrients your body's cells need to function properly. Therefore, maintaining your digestive health is crucial for maintaining your overall health. Usana's probiotic supplement supports digestive health with a unique blend of probiotics that helps to maintain a health balance of beneficial bacteria in your gut.
If the body is deficient in any essential nutrients, immune function can be compromised and the potential for developing a number of health concerns is significantly higher. Because the digestive system is responsible for breaking down and absorbing the vitamins and minerals from food and nutritional supplements, maintaining digestive health is an important factor in optimising nutrient intake and defending against deficiency-related illness.
Please ask me about your winter supplementation needs |
GUEST OF THE WEEK Every week I meet so many amazing and inspiring women so I want to give you the opportunity to meet some of the other special women in my life and how they can help benefit your life too....
Sleep better, love life, naturally....
Like food and water, sleep is vital for good health! As busy women we also increasingly understand that when we don't sleep properly life becomes difficult. There's actually a growing amount of research linking poor sleep to serious health issues including a compromised immune system, mental fatigue, cardiovascular disease, weight issues and loss of libido. So, since we sleep for almost a third of a 24 hour day, it makes sense to make it the best quality sleep we can, and manage these potential health threats through developing healthy and sustainable sleep habits!
www.naturalsleepshop.com is an online shop stocking a range of natural products to help your entire family sleep better, naturally. Natural products manage moisture (perspiration) better, are naturally anti-bacterial, and provide better thermal qualities than synthetic fibres (like polyester), so you will be drier, healthier and more comfortable every night...and sleep better, naturally!
