This will be some of the most simple advice you ever get about holidays weight gain.
Don't skip your workouts.
How's that for rocket science! ;-)
But look, this is the time of year where most people fall apart.
They get busy as all get out with parties and shopping.
And I want you to enjoy yourself and have fun. I really do.
However, I don't want you to be one of the many that can't fit into their sweat pants - never mind skinny jeans - when January rolls around.
NOW is the time to crank up your workouts so you can enjoy those parties guilt free.
My partners over at Prograde Nutrition have two awesome resources for you to thelp you out.
And don't worry, they're totally free.
The first will be released in a couple days. They're recording a Holiday Survival Guide webinar that is going to reveal ten simple strategies to help you get through the holidays unscathed. But still allow you to feast on your favorite foos.
The second thing is going to turbo charge those workouts I was just talking about. They've made available to all of my readers a killer 39 page report titled, "What to NEVER Eat After You Workout."
Trust me, you don't want to waste your workouts by fueling it improperly afterwards. This report is easy to read and it'll teach you all the basics. Just the stuff you need to know. Nothing else.

Another Way to Reduce Your Risk Of...
It's a strange phenomenon. People are sooo much more interested in losing weight than their health.
I've seen it enough to know it's true.
Articles about fat loss and six pack abs are much more likely to be read than an article on reducing your risk of heart disease.
So I urge you to take the time to think about the articles you read.
And I also urge you to take the time to read this brief one from my partners over at Prograde.
They reveal a very interesting study about multi-vitamins and decreases in heart attack risk.

Yours in health,
Linda
PS - A great way to provide your body with the nutritional foundation you need each day is a Whole Foods based multi-vitamin. Prograde has a terrific one called VGF 25+ that is made from 25 veggies, greens and fruits.The best part is you can try Prograde's VGF 25+ for FREE! (There's just a small S & H charge)

Top 10 Nutritional Myths
Does eating late really make you fat? Does sugar cause Diabetes? Can we really lose weight by NOT eating carbs?
The media’s given us some outrageous claims about the food we eat and what’s considered a healthy nutritional lifestyle. Today we are going to decipher the “truths” from the “myths”
Find out the answers to these and other myths about nutrition.
1. EATING LATE WILL MAKE YOU FAT
CALORIES are CALORIES no matter WHAT time of day you eat them. There is no magic hour when your body decides that what you are eating is now going to be stored as fat.
What we eat and how much we eat is much more important than when we eat. Remember to spread your food intake out over the entire day to sustain your energy.
2. ALL FATS ARE BAD
We all need fat to sustain our body. Fat aids nutrient absorption and nerve transmission and helps maintain cell membrane integrity.
As you know, if we consumed excessive amounts of fat, this will contribute to weight gain, heart disease and increase risk of some cancers.
However, some fats actual promote good health, like monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.
Monounsaturated fats decrease our overall cholesterol, and our LDL (the bad cholesterol), while increasing our good cholesterol, HDL. Examples of monounsaturated foods are…nuts, avocados, and olive oil.
Polyunsaturated fats also decrease our overall cholesterol, and our LDL. Some food examples of polyunsaturated foods would be salmon and fish oil.
3. CHOLESTROL-FREE FOODS ARE HEART HEALTHY
Just because the front label says it is cholesterol free doesn’t mean the food is actually healthy.
Check the food label first and see what is the amount of saturated fat and Tran’s fat. Chances are that cholesterol free margarine, cookies or crackers are loaded with saturated fats, Tran’s fats or both.
The FDA allows products to claim cholesterol free on its label if there are no more than 2 milligrams cholesterol and 2 grams of saturated fat per serving. But there is NO limit on the Trans fat. Make sure you read the entire label to find the truth whether what you are eating is really heart healthy.
4. SUGAR CAUSES DIABETES
If you have diabetes, you need to watch your sugar and carbohydrate intake, but if you don’t have the disease, sugar intake will not cause diabetes.
The most common risk of high sugar intake is weight gain.
5. SKIPPING MEALS WILL HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT
If you skip a meal your body will think it’s in starvation mode and therefore slow down the metabolism to compensate.
If you skip a meal, you tend to overeat for your next meal, thus consuming more calories than are needed.
Instead, eat six smaller portioned and balanced meals a day to maintain hunger and weight control.
6. EATING FISH IS THE BEST WAY TO GET HEART HEALTHY OMEGA-3 FATS
Including both fish and plant based omega 3 sources to your diet is best.
Plant based omega 3 foods include, walnuts, flaxseed, canola oil and soybeans. These foods also help promote healthy skin and hair.
Fish based omega 3 foods include, salmon and fish oil, help decrease risk of cardiovascular diseases because of their strong triglyceride lowering effect.
7. RED MEAT IS BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH
Though it is true that beef is higher in saturated fats then other meats, choosing a leaner cut of both beef and pork will help reduce the amount of unwanted saturated fats. In fact, some leaner cuts of beef are lower in saturated fats than a thigh of a chicken with the skin on.
When choosing a lean beef, try round, top, round roast, top sirloin and flank cuts. For leaner pork, try tenderloin or loin chops.
8. AVOIDING CARBOHYRATES TO LOSE WEIGHT
The “low-carb” diets claim that carbohydrates promote insulin production, which in turn results in weight gain. The problem with most of these diets is, they don’t provide ENOUGH carbohydrates for daily maintenance. So, your body will begin to burn stored carbohydrates (glycogen) for energy. When this process happens, water is release, thus the weight you lose is really only water weight.
Most of these diets also restrict your daily calorie intake to around 1000-1400 calories per day. This type of restriction slows the metabolism down. And once normal eating habits are restored, your body is use to the 1000 calorie requirement, so when you start eating 1800-2400 calories a day, you start to gain weight, usually MORE!
9. DARK BREAD IS BETTER FOR YOU THAN WHITE BREAD/ BROWN EGGS ARE HEALTHIER THAN WHITE
Don’t let the color of the bread dictate if the bread is nutritious or not. Wheat bread is not WHOLE wheat bread. Wheat bread will have enriched wheat flour, which is a fancy way to say white flour. Plus if you read further down the ingredients, you will find some type of food coloring to make it brown. The first ingredient in WHOLE wheat bread (or other grains) should say 100% whole wheat grain.
Again, don’t be fooled by the color, brown eggs and white eggs have the same taste and nutritional content. The color difference comes from the breed of hen.
10. EXTRA PROTEIN BUILDS MUSCLE
You heard it all before, if you want to add muscle you have to eat a lot of protein like the body builders. To add muscle you need three components… 1.adequate calories 2. a good intake of protein and 3. a good strength training program.
Eating protein after strength training along with some carbohydrates has been proven to build muscle.
I hope we have squashed some of the top nutritional myths for you. Understanding the truth will make your food choices easier. Good nutrition is about 75% responsible for how your body looks, feels and performs.
If you need more nutritional guidance, please talk with one of our trained professionals, about how you can start looking and feeling better today!

Seven Rapid Fat Loss Tips For Bathing Suit Season
Each summer draws near and beach goers begin to panic about how they will look in their bathing suit. Registered Dietitian Jayson Hunter recommends starting a diet and exercise program this March to guarantee a beach ready body by the time summer officially arrives.
According to Hunter, “I specifically designed these rapid fat loss tips to help men and women who want to look great in their bathing suits. They will help men lose that ugly belly fat. And they will help women look amazing in either a bikini or a little black dress.”
Here are Jayson Hunter’s Seven Rapid Fat Loss Tips for Bathing Suit Season:
1) Take five minutes each day to visualize a beach ready body. A crystal clear mental image of success greatly increases the chances of success.
2) Limit portion sizes by eating from smaller plates. Studies show people that eat from smaller plates eat fewer calories.
3) Keep a food journal. Research indicates dieters underestimate their daily caloric intake by 25%.
4) Always eat a nutritious breakfast to stimulate metabolism for the entire day.
5) Participate in rigorous strength training exercise to promote calorie burning for up to 48 hours post-exercise.
6) Avoid processed foods found in the middle aisles of grocery stores. Instead consume lean proteins, vegetables and fruits.
7) Have healthy snacks on hand at all times. Hormones released in stressful situations cause cravings of foods high in fat and sugar. Being prepared for such times greatly reduces the chances of binge eating of the wrong foods.
Jayson Hunter, RD, CSCS is a registered dietitian and personal trainer with over ten years of experience. He specializes in helping people lose weight quickly and safely so they look great for any special event they want to look their best for. He is available for story ideas and interviews.

A Common Healthy Weight Loss Complaint
If it were easy everyone would be walking around with a lean, sexy body.
But hey, it's not in this world we live in today. Believe me, I understand all too well that there's temptation around every corner.
Everywhere you look there's fast food, junk food, chocolate, candy, ice cream, pizza...
And I know it tastes good. And I know when you get stressed your body craves it even more.
That's why you have to have a plan. You have to know what you're going to do to avoid those temptations. You have to plan your meals in advance.
Again, if this were easy everyone would be thin and in great shape. But they're not.
The first thing to do is come to grips with reality. To accept the fact that getting the body of your dreams is going to take effort.
The second is to understand that it's not going to be miserable. In fact, it's going to be a LOT of fun.
When you exercise you feel awesome. Sure, the weight comes off. But you also feel stronger. You're more alive. You can meet the demands of your day SO much easier.
How is that miserable?
And when you start eating healthier the same thing happens. It really, really is true: you are what you eat.
Now, take a second and really think about that.
What you are putting in your mouth is what your body is using to regenerate itself with all the time.
If you're eating crappy food...
Get the picture ;-)
But don't worry, I've got a really cool and inexpensive resource for you to help you out BIG TIME with your healthy eating.
My partners over at Prograde Nutrition have created this 197 Healthy and Delicious Fat Burning Recipes ebook. It's only $4.95 and I highly recommend it to make healthy weight loss much easier on you.

Proper Hydration for Exercise - Water or Sports Drinks
I recently had a conversation with my sister in Minnesota, she was explaining to me a few episodes she has had lately with dehydration.
With so many of us entrenched in our New Year's resolutions of getting in shape, some people are experiencing dizziness, muscle cramps and fatigue. These may not be symptoms of a hard workout...it could be dehydration.
Most of the population walking around today are dehydrated, those of us working out, is even higher. Proper hydration is very important to everyone, but especial to those who workout, our bodies are mostly water, anywhere from 55-78% depending on body size. Water is the most essential ingredient in our bodies, it helps with transportation of nutrients, lubricating joints and tissues, temperature regulation, facilitating digestion and helps eliminate waste products.
According to the American Council on Exercise, your heart rate increases eight beats per minute for every liter of sweat lost during exercise. You can lose a liter of sweat in as little as 30 minutes of exercise, depending on the environment and the intensity of your workout. An increased heart rate, combined with inefficient cooling, can cause your body temperature to increase which will in turn compromise your performance and could lead to illness.
As far as performance is concerned, a 3 percent fluid loss reduces muscle endurance, a 4 to 6 percent fluid loss reduces muscle strength and greater than 6 percent can lead to heat cramps or heat exhaustion. What people don't realize is that they can improve their performance if they're properly hydrated --- some studies have found people can exercise 10 minutes longer if they're properly hydrated than if they are not.
Adequate Fluid Intake for for Athletes or those who are exercising.
Because there is wide variability in sweat rates, losses and hydration levels of individuals, it is nearly impossible to provide specific recommendations or guidelines about the type or amount of fluids athletes should consume.
Finding the right amount of fluid to drink depends upon a variety of individual factors including the length and intensity of exercise and other individual differences. There are, however, two simple methods of estimating adequate hydration:
1. Monitoring urine volume output and color. A large amount of light colored, diluted urine probably means you are hydrated; dark colored, concentrated urine probably means you are dehydrated.
2. Weighing yourself before and after exercise. Any weight lost is likely from fluid, so try to drink enough to replenish those losses. Any weight gain could mean you are drinking more than you need.
So train hard, but be safe...drink plenty of water! For more information about proper hydration go to...

Delicious Sources of Omega-3 Fatty Acids
It really is very simple to take better care of yourself. A couple of different food choices during the day and you'll be well on your way to fueling your body with all the nutrients it needs.
Take, for instance, Omega-3 fatty acids. They've been all over the news for years now as a super important part of your healthy eating plan.
So what are some delicious sources of Omega-3s?
1) Salmon is probably the most well-known choice. But hey, if you don't like salmon then some other choices of fish would be Mackeral, Tuna, Snapper or Sardines.
2) Walnuts are another top pick. These are perfect for a snack you can bring with you just about anywhere.
3) Essential Fatty Acid supplements are also a valid choice. Yes, you want to be eating whole foods and fueling your body with nature's best. But a high quality EFA supplement can be a great addition to your healthy eating plan.
And as a proud Prograde partner I recommend their EFA Icon product. It's extremely high quality and they are about the only supplement company on the planet I truly trust.
Best part is they are having a sale on EFA Icon that runs until 11:57pm EST on Friday, January 22nd. So yes, its' just about over!
So if you want to save 10.10% on this awesome product then be sure to visit http://oxygenironworks.getprograde.com/krill_oil.html RIGHT NOW.

The Most Critical Part Of Your Workout
Ok, so you're working your butt off. You're sweating. You're hustling. You're getting that exercise "high." Heck, not only are you now enjoying your workouts, but you want to learn more about how to make them more effective.
That's great!
It never ceases to amaze me how most people don't give their bodies a second thought. They think they just go to the gym...walk on the treadmill...throw some weights around...go home and eat whatever...
Seriously, the human body is the most complicated piece of machinery on the planet. Do they really think there's ZERO science behind exercise? Do they really think they can just eat whatever is in their fridge after working their butts off?
I dunno, maybe it's just me, but it drives me a little crazy when people look at fitness as nothing more than guesswork. Actually, it's a little infuriating.
Take post-workout nutrition, for example. Does it make sense that there be an OPTIMAL way to fuel your body after all the demands you make of it during your training session? Of course it does!
Bottom line: Recent studies have shown that a carbohydrate AND protein formula is more effective for rapid replenishment of muscle glycogen after exercise than a carbohydrate only supplement of equal carbohydrate or caloric content.
In other words, just drinking a "sports drink" after your workout doesn't cut it. The research indicates you need to fuel your body with just the right combo of carbs AND protein. And yes, this is hyper-critical to optimizing your efforts.
On the link below you can learn more about the research study on post-workout nutrition.
Yes, Prograde Workout recovery drink is based on this very research. It provides the right combo of protein and carbs that your body craves after a tough training session.
