Healthy Conversation--What Prevents Weight Loss   Would you like to know the key to losing weight and keeping it off, not just losing weight but keeping it off forever, feeling fantastic even feeling years younger? The #1 reason that people struggle with losing weight or they lose and regain, or they have unexplained weight gain is because of hormones. When you think of hormones with regard to weight loss you might think insulin but that's just one hormone. There are six key hormones that are getting in the way of us losing weight. When we think of hormones we think of the word estrogen but there's also progesterone and testosterone plus the two that people rarely think of are thyroid and cortisol. In my research I have found that there are seven foods that influence our... (click here to continue reading)

Weight Loss Hint--7 Cheap Ways To Eat Healthy
Losing weight means switching to a lifestyle of healthy eating. We've heard complaints from many dieters that the healthy options in the supermarket are always more expensive. This is actually false.
The truth is that in order to eat healthfully AND save money you need to invest more time and effort. If you have just a bit of extra time and are willing to cook, eating healthy can be cheaper than eating junk food. If you have time to watch TV or scroll through Facebook and Instagram, surely you have time for health!
TIP #1 NEVER GO SHOPPING WHEN HUNGRY When you are hungry, you are weak and easily swayed. Supermarkets are finely oiled marketing machines that rely on your impulse purchases to make a profit.
TIP #2 SHOP ONLY WITH A GROCERY LIST Plan your weekly meals ahead and prepare a master ingredient list. When working off of a shopping list in the supermarket, you'll stand a better chance to withstand the temptation.
TIP #3 LEARN TO LOVE THE PRODUCE SECTION AT YOUR LOCAL GROCERY STORE This is a no brainer. Fresh fruits and vegetables should be a major part of your food spend. Most people tend to stick to a very small number of favorites. Make a decision to buy a new produce item each week and find a recipe for it. There are amazing recipes for relatively cheap vegetables and roots such as cabbage, cauliflower, and beets.
TIP #4 BUY FROZEN FRUITS AND VEGETABLES The price of fresh produce fluctuates based on season and availability of locally harvested goods. Sometimes a pint of fresh strawberries will be just too expensive. This is an opportunity for frozen foods. Frozen vegetables and fruit are actually just as nutrient dense as their fresh counterparts. Unlike fresh fruit, they are picked at peak ripeness. They are then flash frozen, a process that retains almost all the nutrients, sometimes even more than a fresh fruit waiting for you on a supermarket shelf.
TIP #5 DON'T BUY LIQUID CALORIES You can save $100-200 a year just by avoiding sugary soft drinks and fruit juice. Learn to love water and spend more on whole fruits.
TIP #6 EAT LESS MEAT For some people, this may sound sacrilegious, but there is no nutritional reason to eat meat more than once a day. Instead, consider cheap and healthy sources of protein such as beans, lentils, eggs, nuts, seeds, and whole grains. When you do have meat, mind the serving size - think of it as the topping, not the main part of a dish.
TIP #7 LEARN JUST ONE RECIPE EACH WEEK You don't need to be an expert chef or making anything fancy. If you choose just one recipe to prepare every week, within a year you will have a repertoire of over 50 from which to choose. There are lots of simple ingredients available in the RECIPES/files section of our 2030 Facebook group and in our Thin&Healthy Forever cookbook.

Nutrition Hint--Slow Cooker Hacks That Make Life Easier
Cook an Entire Spaghetti Squash
The big yellow gourd makes an excellent pasta swap, but hacking into a rock-hard spaghetti squash to prepare it for baking is a serious pain in the wrist...There's an easier way! Just take that whole squash -- the entire thing -- and put it in the slow cooker. Add half a cup of water, cover, and let it cook on high for 2 1/2 hours. Once it's soft, you can easily slice into it, scoop out the seeds, and scrape out the strands for consumption.
Steam a Whole Cabbage
We love saving carbs by sinking our teeth into foods wrapped in giant cooked cabbage leaves... They're nature's tortillas! But removing those yummy leaves from a head of cabbage can be quite the task. You either need to cook the entire thing in a pot of boiling water first or attempt to peel the stiff leaves from a raw head of cabbage, yielding countless torn and useless leaves. Not anymore! Just place the whole head of cabbage in your slow cooker along with 2 cups of water. Cover and cook on high for 2 1/2 hours, or until soft. Now you can easily peel off the pliable leaves, and wrap 'em around whatever you want.

Metabolism Retraining Hint--Interval Training Best For Weight Loss
Why Interval Training Is The Best Way To Go
The BEST way to burn fat is to shift your workouts to interval training.
Interval training - using high- and low-intensity periods, has been shown in research to burn fat and get you in the best shape - FASTER!
Not only that, but interval training spares your muscle tissue and utilizes your fat stores for energy.
This improves your body composition (less body fat and more muscle)...
Improves your cardiovascular system...
And, gets you a noticeably flatter stomach (and other areas)!
Oh, and the BEST part...
You end up burning MORE calories AFTER the workout is over (referred to as afterburn).
Unlike interval training, the minute you stop doing cardio, you also stop burning calories.
