Why You Hate Working Out & How You Can Begin To Love It

Aside from possible low energy levels or just flat out laziness…

Why do so many people absolutely HATE working out or exercising?

Why do YOU? Why did I?

Speaking for myself, I hated (or at least THOUGHT I hated) working out because of how fatigued and winded I would get so quickly.

I mean, most work out videos, shows, etc. indicated that I must work out at LEAST 30 minutes a day, at a minimum of 3 days a week to see any viable results.

I would shudder at the thought of the next workout because of the bad feelings I got when doing the previous workout and eventually, I found myself simply not working out at all!

So that’s MY story. But YOU have to ask yourself why is it that you hate working out…what is it that causes the ill feelings.

Maybe I can help you figure it out.

In doing a little bit of research, I’ve found that most other people tend to hate working out because: [Read more…] about Why You Hate Working Out & How You Can Begin To Love It

Why Are Meal Replacement Shakes Helpful For Weight Loss?

By GHCL

It’s been proven that replacing 1-2 of your meals with a good, high-quality meal replacement shake is an excellent way to shed pounds and inches.

Some shakes contain ingredients that aid in weight loss, but that’s not what typically makes them beneficial for weight loss.

How meal replacement shakes help weight loss:

Meal replacement shakes keep you full for hours so you don’t eat too much…
Shakes take the guesswork out of what to eat so you don’t end up making poor choices…
They help you cut back on time spent cooking, which makes meal time simpler and easier to stick with…
High quality meal shakes can offer a great source of nutrition, which aids in preventing you from reaching for foods that cause weight gain…
Depending on which one you choose, meal replacement shakes are high in protein, low in calories…
Shakes are in liquid form so any nutritional benefits they provide are more readily digested, absorbed, and used by your body…
Many meal replacement shakes are portable so you can have one on the go when you need a quick “rescue meal” from fast-food joints.

My recommendation for a delicious, healthy meal replacement shake to help your weight loss

meal replacement shake that helps with weight loss Not all meal replacement shakes are created equally.

Most of the popular shakes on the market contain harmful ingredients that can have unfavorable longterm effects.

And many of the ones that are good for you taste like crap.

I’ve tried a few brands and finally found one that’s not only chock full of good stuff, but tastes great!

They’re gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free so even if you happen to be vegan, lactose-intolerant, or suffer from celiac disease, you can drink these shakes.

Not only that, but they contribute to your weight loss efforts by delivering 500mg of calcium per serving.

Then there’s the anti-stress & energy blend, which is helpful because stress causes cortisol levels to rise, resulting in weight gain.

There’s also a prebiotic blend to aid in digestion, super greens blend for overall health & well-being and more!

While drinking shakes can be a great part of your weight loss solution, don’t view them as the end-all-be-all.

You must also incorporate other things such as making strides towards a healthier diet, as well as cleansing & detoxification, and light-to-moderate exercise for best results.

The meal shakes are just part of the equation.

Mmm… There’s nothing like sweet, juicy pineapple, especially a FRESH one.

But what about the time you brought home a whole pineapple and after putting the other groceries away, you looked over at it, grabbed the knife, and cut that bad boy open – mouth all fixed & ready to enjoy that sweet succulent flavor.

The aroma made your mouth water with anticipation so you cut it up, took a bite and found yourself with a frowned up pucker because the pineapple turned out to be a super-tart, nowhere near sweet, DUD of a pineapple!

Ugh. Major disappointment, wasn’t it?

How To Eat Five Small Meals A Day Without Over-Stuffing Yourself

By GHCL

How many times have you heard…

“It’s better to eat five small meals a day rather than three large meals”…

…ESPECIALLY if you’re trying to lose weight?

And as with anything else, the validity of that statement is arguable. But I’m not here to argue as to whether or not it’s true, I’m here to help those who DO believe it to be true to be able to DO it!

Now for some people, that’s an easy task to complete because they may eat that and then some.

But if you’re anything like me, I don’t have a very large appetite and sometimes eating even THREE meals a day is challenging, let alone five! [Read more…] about How To Eat Five Small Meals A Day Without Over-Stuffing Yourself

Scale Back On Using The Scale

By GHCL

Scales can be our best friend, or our worst enemy!

You know how it is…as long as the numbers are reading in our favor, we’re pleased as punch… happy as can be!

But ohhh… let those numbers jump UP or not move at all for a while then it’s ‘dooms day’ and we’re ready to throw the scale (along with any hope of losing weight) out the window!

When you’re working towards achieving your health and weight loss goals, it’s NOT a good idea to weigh in on a daily basis. It’s tempting to do so, I know because I do it too; but my own personal experience as well as some of my research has shown that it’s not such a good idea. Why?
