Eating a balanced diet as part of your day-to-day life is critical to maintaining a long, energetic and healthy life.

A realistic diet encourages you to adopt healthy eating…

Also educates you about the importance of sensible eating through our nutritional services and diet plans.

Diet eating plans are complementary to all women currently participating in our boot camps and personal training services…

In addition to this, we also provide ongoing and up-to-date information and research to help educate you in choosing the right foods for your body.

We categorize our diet plans into three distinct areas and include:

* Low GI/low carbohydrate
* High protein
* Vegetarian

Its all about promoting women’s health, healthy eating via natural, whole foods to provide your body with all the daily nutrients it needs to achieve healthy weight loss…

YES, sustainable  energy for improved wellness and performance.

It is ideal to have smaller portions spread throughout the day…

This provide your body with a consistent supply of proteins, carbohydrates, healthy fats, vitamins and minerals so you can perform at an optimal level for longer.

So What is a Healthy Diet

A good diet should provide your body with the nutrients it needs in the proper quantities.

A balanced and moderate diet is crucial to developing a healthy lifestyle.

Food provides seven essential substances your body needs: carbohydrates that provide energy; vitamins promote health; protein aids in growth and repairing the body…

Fat that protects muscles and internal systems from harmful collisions, functions as an energy storage system…

Fat helps maintain proper temperature by insulating the body; minerals to maintain body systems; fiber to assist in digestion and the processing of waste materials; and water that accounts of 70% of the human body.

Low GI/Low Carbohydrate Diet

Glycemic Index (GI) is calculated on a scale from 1 – 100 and measures the effect of food on our blood-glucose levels.

When we eat, our blood sugar levels increase leaving us full and energised.

Research has shown high GI carbohydrate foods causes our insulin to rapidly spike which results in a short energy burst before dropping, leaving you hungry and tired.

This is also damaging to our arteries, blood vessels and will result in weight gain.

Low GI carbohydrate foods on the other hand, sustain you over a longer period, leaving you feeling fuller for longer.

Eating a low GI diet means you are less likely to ‘snack’ on bad foods that are responsible for weight gain, tiredness and are generally unhealthy for you and your body.

Controlling your sugar intake is an important factor in achieving weight loss and consistent energy levels throughout the day.

The low GI/low carbohydrate diet is most recommended for women  trying to achieve maximum weight loss.

High Protein Diet

Much of our body is protein-based including our muscles, brain cells, skin, hair and nails.

A high-protein diet leaves you feeling fuller for longer and provides you with your daily energy needs.

Protein is the most important factor when exercising in order to tone.

You want to increase muscle mass as it is the key factor when it comes to building and repairing muscles.

Protein-rich foods including chicken, beef, lamb, fish and legumes release amino acids which when digested, are used to make new proteins to give us our energy sources.

We recommend this diet if you want to achieve quick weight loss and fast lean muscle gain.

Vegetarian Diet

Many people are choosing this diet as a healthy lifestyle option.

Vegetarian diets eliminate meat products and in some cases seafood and all animal by-products (vegan).

It is important when choosing to eat vegetarian, that you supplement your diet with protein and omega-rich foods including soy products, legumes, eggs, whole grains, nuts and seeds.

A well-balanced vegetarian diet has many health benefits and can reduce the risk of obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure and some types of cancer.

However if not carefully planned can have the opposite effect on the body.

How To Eliminate Your Cravings Quickly?

Cravings can be more than just a little desire for chocolate or a particular sweets and foods…

Physical cravings for sugar cravings and foods that contain lots of sugar, fat or salt can be intense and lead to binging.

What do you crave? Well, whatever you crave for makes it difficult to lose weight and have the body you want.

There are 2 reasons for this...

One is that we are hungry.

When you go a while without eating food, your body often will crave the sweetest (chocolate) or densest foods imaginable (chocolate cake).

Your body may have associated calorie dense foods with burgers or fries.

It just wants to get those calories in…don’t worry, it’s not your fault and you
are not alone.

The other reason is that we are simply addicted.

A lot of the food we put into our body has chemicals within that make it addictive.

One of these is called HCAs (Heterocyclic Amines).

Cheese contains morphine and chocolate of course has caffeine as well as sugar. They can send us into a downward spiral that is difficult to escape.

However you can get out of it quite easily by making the right changes to your lifestyle.

First of all it is really important that you start eating breakfast and start eating consistently throughout the day (at least every 2-3 hours).

You have to make eating a priority otherwise you find time and time again the evening comes around and you’ll be craving beyond belief.

You’ll end up going on a massive binge…

Of course though there are ways to calm that feeling down immediately too but the best thing to do is avoid the situation completely.

If you find yourself in an intense mess by the evening then its time to start eating fruit.

This might puzzle you and you may be thinking that fruit is the last thing you
would consider eating as it will make your cravings worse, but it won’t!

It won’t as long as you eat enough.

In tense times where I haven’t eaten all day the best step to do is to grab some fresh strawberries and simply chop a cup’s worth into bite sized pieces.

This will satisfy your hunger and stop the cravings.

Another tip is that it is always a good idea to drink water.

When we are dehydrated we can feel less hungry which can lead to under eating and binging later on.

Drinking throughout the day will help you maintain regular eating.

Aim for 4 – 8 glasses of water a day, increasing volume as the temperature rises (i,e, spring, summer) and as your level of activity increases.

You will be amazed as the cravings disappear.

Lastly have more self-awareness.

If you can be more in tune with yourself you may realize that a lot of your
eating isn’t hunger but emotional issues.

Stress and upset can make us want to grab a doughnut.

Excitement and happiness can also make us want to grab a doughnut. This is because society has placed food at the center of celebrations and upsets.

It is pretty much ingrained in all of us.

Make an effort to acknowledge it and you will have more success overcoming cravings for good.

Also, remember to check in on the new tips, techniques, systems, methods
and programs that will help you get the body you want and truly deserve.

Weight Loss Program to Help You Lose Weight

Many available weight loss products and weight loss programs offer quick solutions to weight problems…

How the feeling of frustration arises?

Firstly, you feel frustration when you’re not able to achieve the weight loss target you had set for yourself.

Secondly, you feel frustration when you compare yourself with others and find you’re lagging behind.

While other women have made fast weight loss progress, you still remain where you were earlier.

There are other causes of frustration.

For example: When you misinterpret your own beliefs and capabilities by setting wight loss targets which are too far away from reaching that result.

Do you compare yourself with other women who are more educated or are better equipped with the right resources?

Do you find you’re setting your weight loss target up to levels where you factually could never reach?

And if you’re not able to reach your weight loss targets you get frustrated? 

In fact, you may have already experienced it is very difficult to achieve the desired weight you want.

With your permission, may I suggest before you get into any weight loss program, it is important you check the cost of the whole lose weight session.

Here’s why…almost all weight loss programs have high cost registration fees.

Actually, I’ve researched this topic intensively…

Finding many weight loss programs use aggressive upsells to pressure you into buying weight loss pills (monthy rebills for weight loss diet pill).

And of course, supplements that claim you will have a physically fit body. 

Over 50 million of Americans are engaged in weight loss programs, but only 5 percent sustain the weight they’ve worked off.

Many women think losing weight is easy; they may encounter the struggles of working out and dieting in the course of their weight loss programs.

Many women are still not finding effective ways to get rid of the excess weight in their body.

Finally! When will women realize the fact there is no push button or quick solution to get rid of the excess weight in a short time? 

One solution that is seen by experts to be the answer to weight problems is the change of mindset and lifestyle of a person.

Eating healthy food and having an active lifestyle only proves it is the most effective way to lose weight. 

What weight loss products sold over the counter help in your weight problems?

What weight loss programs enable you to enjoy regular exercise everyday?

All these over the counter options and/or ( over the counter medication) can substantially increase costs and could be a waste of your money too.

If you want to engage in these kinds of programs, it is important you must first get enough information on how good the products or programs work.

How do these products and programs work and are they made to help you feel good as well as others look good in achieving a physically fit body. 

Although weight loss products and weight loss programs have the capability to help you lose the unwanted weight…

It is important that you select the right weight loss program that can truly guide and help you in your quest for a physically fit body.

A healthy diet could be the most rewarding and enjoyable change to help you lose weight in transforming your body and overall health.
