Look Fit Health

Hello and welcome to my very first blog of 2012 and well, ever! I will give you the short version of who I am, so not to bore you. My name is Meg Sticha. I am 31-years-old and have 2 children, Abraham, 13 and Landon, 4. I live in Dickinson, North Dakota. I have lived in North Dakota my whole life and I love it. The weather, not so much in the winter months, but the people and the scenery are remarkable. I am a stay-at-home mother and have been for over a year. I am totally in love with it. My kids are my world. Oh I should also mention that I am engaged to be married this summer to a wonderful man named, Luke. I recently decided I wanted to have a career, but have the luxury of working from home also. So in December of 2011, I decided to start my own business. I am an Independent Distributor for Visalus. If you have never heard of Visalus, I don’t blame you. It’s new to the United States only about 1 1/2 years old, but it is sweeping the nation in a big way. Basically it is a meal replacement shake. It originally was marketed for cancer patients and has grown since then and now used for other health benefits such as weight loss, building muscle, energy, maintaining your healthy weight, and an overall health makeover. I call it my health boost. It contains over 25 essential vitamins and minerals, has only 90 calories, 1 gram of fat, less than 1 gram of sugar and is gluten and lactose free. And that is all in only one shake! It has literally changed my life. I started after Thanksgiving of last year and saw results instantly. The first week alone I had lost 9 lbs. I was hooked. It was so easy and totally delicious. There was no counting points, no changing my diet for dinner, no exercise, and no feelings of deprivation. They are filling and as I mentioned before, very tasty. It comes in a powder form and you add the remaining ingredients. You are not restricted to chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla like some other products. You literally can create 1000s of flavors. You never get bored! My favorites range from peanut butter cup and butterfinger to pina colada and strawberry banana. I have never tried one that wasn’t amazing. I was so impressed with the product, that I decided to sell it and share it with my community and eventually the world. I have done very well so far. Health and weight loss are a major market, so I found out. I have had an increased amount of energy and stamina. My health has improved and so has my overall outlook on life. It’s my miracle product and I plan on being on it for the remainder of my years. I am up to a grand total of 28 lbs lost in 7 weeks. This is not the skinniest I have been, but the healthiest and happiest I have ever felt in my 31 years of life. Go to my website www.megsticha.bodybyvi.com and watch the videos, read the success stories, and sign my guest book so that I can email you more information. I will be blogging every couple of days about my progress. I will include shake recipes once in a while also. Join me on this challenge and change your life today! Thank you for reading and have a sexy day!

What are some of the most important things to know before I start shopping for organic groceries?

Organic foods is the healthiest foods option you can provide for yourself. When you are looking for a way to encourage better farming practices and to make sure that you and your family eats better, you’ll find that looking into organic grocery shopping can help you in both fields. Consider shopping for organic groceries and think about what the benefits can do for you.

What makes organic foods different? At the most basic level, organic foods are foods that have been grown in line with certain production standards. They will not have had conventional pesticides used on them, they have not been grown using artificial fertilizers or sewage sludge, and they have not had any food additives added as well. A mojority of countries block farmers from using the term “organic” on their produce if it has been modified genetically. Neither growth hormones or antibiotic medications are given to animals that are a source of organic meat.

Is there a local resource where I can find organic foods? The grocery store is the best place to begin looking for organic foods. There is an area for organic foods. Community-backed agricultural programs which give you an interest in local farms and joining a co-op in your area are great ways to access organic foods. You may also want to check out a local farmer’s market during the summer.

There are lots of options for healthy eating using organice food shopping. Be sure to take advantage of all options available in your local area.

WATER – Adequate water can actually reverse athrosclerosis (hardening of the arteries due to plaque build-up). It seems that water can actually flush the arteries of plaque.

It also expands blood vessels and makes arteries more elastic, which is essential for healthy hearts.

Most importantly, I believe, is that adequate hydration raises the metabolism and allows for stored fat to be burned more efficiently as well as slowing heart rate, reducing blood pressures and reducing fluid retention.

** Drink enough water to make your urine clear and colourless all day. Limit coffee, tea and pop to three cups a day.

BREAKFAST – Breakfast should include at least four grams of fibre, which in turn reduces cholesterol and fat in the blood. Every 10 gr. of cereal fibre reduces the risk of heart disease and diabetes by 30 per cent!

It also reduces cancer and diabetes risk. Good sources of fibre are cereals, dried beans and lentiles.

He also suggests adding nuts and seeds to breakfast cereal and to have a whole piece of fruit as well. Whole wheat toast, a bagel or a bran muff is NOT a good source of fibre.

It’s important that one eats breakfast within 30 minutes of waking.

It also reduces the risk of cancers by preventing absorption of carcinogens and reduces cholesterol by preventing its absorption.

He suggests that breakfast should be the heaviest, while lunch should be a little less, and supper even less than that.

He told me that the body adjusts and hunger won’t be an issue at the end of the day.

So, in other words, our bodies become more efficient and burn, burn, burn those calories when we eat a good breakfast.

VEGETABLES: Choose at least two different vegetables at lunch AND at supper. Eat a minimum of one cup of vegetables at each meal then eat the rest of your meal. Rice, potato and corn are starches and are NOT counted as vegetables.

MEAT - Eat a maximum of four ounces of meat, pork, chicken or fish a day.

WALKING – Walk for 25 minutes every night after supper. The benefits of walking after supper compared to walking before supper are many. It can lower your blood sugar by 50 per cent, but best of all when one exercises as described above, your body is burning calories the whole time you sleep.

Most North American (95 per cent) eat little through the day relative to their large meals and evening snacks. This raises the blood sugar really high before sleeping. Higher bedtime sugars directly create extra weight and extra cholesterol and lower anti-oxidants which help prevent cancer.

Walking for 25 minutes after supper raises your metabolism, releases growth hormones which suppress appetite for late night snacks and act as a natural fat burner overnight.

He says one can change diet overnight, but allow an average of 3-5 weeks for these changes, as listed above, to impact your metabolism.

REGULAR WEIGH INS – He suggests that if one follows the above, they don’t need to weigh in weekly. It has been found, that the stress of weigh-ins create a chemical in our brains which actually retains the fat and thus we reach those dreaded plateaus. He asked me how many stories I had heard about people who only had five or 10 lbs. to lose, but just couldn’t do it. According to him, weigh-ins become so stressful that they create these fat-holding chemicals. Now THAT was an interesting thing for me to hear!

He suggests instead, that we take monthly body measurements as a true picture of how we are doing.

These suggestions are based on certain statistics – People with cancer, diabetes, high cholesterol/heart disease, bowel problems, and those who are overweight, generally have five things in common!

They are:
* Small or no breakfast with adequate fiber.
* Inadequate water consumption.
* Inadequate activity after supper.
* Inadequate daily fiber intake.
* Inadequate daily vegetable intake.
