A Healthy Conversation--Words Matter
  Today we are talking about how words really do matter. It is crucial to know how to keep your faith up, how to keep your mindset good and how to keep a positive outlook and I'm going to prove it to you before this video is over. It's vital to realize the impact the words that you let run through your own mind and the words you speak can have, because your own mind hears it all. |
Amazing Member Report--Cheryl Songster   
I began my journey to better health in June 2014 and committed at least a year to the process. The two years prior to that I battled injuries and surgeries - my weight was up and my overall fitness and strength was gone. The first seven months of this journey I followed the Thin and Healthy program. Having a coach helped me tremendously - it held me accountable, gave me someone to talk to about the program, and my coach helped me develop the tools to stay the course through all of life's challenges.
I made the switch to the 20/30 Fast Track plan in February of this year after my weight loss stagnated at 22 pounds and I seemed to hit a wall. I completed my 30 days and am now going strong with Listen to Your Body. Whether my weight continues to drop or if I've found my body's normal weight, I want to reinforce and practice all that I've learned and be confident that the changes I've made are permanent. I will also continue to work with my trainer and keep strengthening my body. I've lost 40.5 pounds and dropped 3 sizes. To anyone thinking about making a healthy lifestyle change - you CAN do it and it is so worth it. My biggest words of wisdom are to be patient, commit to the process, stay positive and surround yourself with people who will support you. |
Weight Loss Hint--Turn Off The Lights
Experiencing more darkness at night could make your body lighter. Researchers at Ohio State University found that mice who sleep in total darkness are far less prone to obesity than those who snooze in bright light or dim illumination (e.g., a TV screen). Laura Fonken, a neuroscience student who led the study, says that the mice who slept with light exposure ate at odd times (the equivalent of late-night eating)

Nutrition Hint--Healthy Gut, Happy Body
Giving your body digestive enzymes to help aid digestion is like hiring more workers for an extremely large task. The more workers you have, the better executed the task will be. Digestive enzymes help fight to keep your gut healthy. They are the key substances of the digestive process, working to break down our food for proper absorption. If you feel bloated after eating, digestive enzymes may be right for you.
The aging process and certain health issues cause a reduction in the body's production of digestive enzymes. One effect of this reduction is a bloated feeling soon after eating a large meal. Digestive enzymes are essential to the body's absorption and full use of food. The primary purpose of digestive enzymes is; to digest protein, carbohydrates, and fat. These enzymes function as catalysts to speed the reactions that break down food. Raw foods also provide enzymes that naturally break down food for proper absorption. The capacity of the living organism to make enzymes diminishes with age.
Your colon is a perfect breeding ground for bad bacteria that can multiply and cause inflammatory upsets and other digestive problems. In order to maintain a healthy digestive system, your body hosts beneficial bacteria in its gastrointestinal tract that defend against harmful microorganisms. But poor diet, increasing age, stress and antibiotic use can all deplete you of these good bacteria. The result can be compromised immune function, disturbances in bowel function and other digestive discomforts.
Total Life Super Enzymes contain a comprehensive blend of enzymes that support healthy digestive functions. Bromelain, Ox  Bile, Pancreatin and Papain have been formulated to optimize the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and protein for maximum assimilation.

Metabolism Retraining Hint--Jump Rope Challenge
-
"The best cardio workout is the jump-rope double-turn maneuver. It's intense: You'll burn about 26 calories per minute! Do a basic jump for five minutes, then jump twice as high and turn the rope twice as fast so it passes under your feet twice before you land. This takes timing, patience and power. But you'll get in great shape just by working at it."
-Michael Olajide Jr., former number one world middleweight contender and cofounder/trainer at Aerospace High Performance Center in New York City
