Fast Food Fat Loss Failure

Back in the nineties Fast Food companies tried to change. They tried coming out with lighter and lower fat versions of their sandwiches and tacos and everything else.
Know what happened?
The "healthier" versions on their menus failed miserably. And I mean miserably. They were all pulled and replaced by newer options that were bigger, fattier and more calorie laden than ever before.
Seriously, they stopped pulling punches and did what any smart business should: They gave people what they wanted. And in the case of Fast Food companies that meant adding as much mayo, bacon, cheese and beef as they possibly could.
That's when we started seeing the Triple Burgers and Mega Burgers and tacos wrapped in melted cheese stuck to yet another taco.And people were more than happy to gobble them all right up.
I believe, fortunately, that we've come to a point where people have realized that it's all just too much. To some extent people are waking up and realizing that they cannot afford to get sick. They cannot afford to eat garbage all the time. They are understanding it WILL catch up to them.



Kentucky Fried Chicken has been in the news lately because they are trying a new Kentucky GRILLED Chicken. Supposedly it tastes as good as their fried version.
Now I don't know if it does or doesn't. And to be honest, I don't much care. You see, the fact of the matter is when people go to Fast Food restaurants and order something "healthier" like grilled chicken they typically off set it by eating every french fry in sight. Or drinking a 64oz cola.
There are better choices to be made. And if you plan your day you won't be in a position where you have to gobble a meal down at KFC, McDonald's or Burger King.
Things like:
Low fat cottage cheese
Hard boiled eggs
Fresh fruit and veggies
Raw almonds
You could also go with Prograde Cravers or Prograde Lean. Cravers are the best tasting healthy snack bar on the planet and Lean is their delicious chocolate meal replacement shake.
Look, the bottom line is simple: A little bit of planning and some smart food choices go a long way to getting that flat stomach you're looking for.
Yours in health,

Linda and Rachel

POWER of the PUSH UP fundraiser sponsored by oxygen and iron

It is time again to start thinking about the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure. We are doing it again, and we wanted to let you know about what is happening this year. We have a team registered, called Power of the Pushup, and we encourage EVERYONE to be part of it. Friends, Family, Neighbors... We raised almost $12,000 last year and we are shooting for even higher this year. This year we are doing 3 main fundraisers. First, we are having a fundraiser here at Oxygen and Iron and Design One Salon & Spa on the evening of May 2nd. There will be a raffle, food, and a lot of fun. Tickets are now on sale, with proceeds going to the Susan G. Komen foundation of Richmond. Second, we are going to hold a Pushup Challenge. Participants will be ask to get pledges from everyone you possibly can, and then come in here to Oxygen and Iron for our special Pushup Boot Camp. The Boot Camp will be a fantastic workout, and you will certainly do many pushups. You can also come in that day to do pushups if you can't make the Boot Camp. Lastly, we are doing shirts again this year. We are extremely excited about our shirts this year, which have been designed specifically for our Team. Check them out below! For more information on all our Komen fundraising please check out our website at http://www.oxygenbootcamp.com/raceforthecure.html Thanks!!
