Vegan, Vegetarian, Paleo - Does it matter?
I have discussed this with many patients over the last several months. What is important no matter which "diet" you follow is that you are getting all the necessary nutrients every day. Are you getting enough magnesium, iron, zinc, B12? Are you eating too much saturated fat and trans fat? Do you have food sensitivities?
The only way to determine this is to log your food in a diet diary. The best one I have found is our Fate on Your Plate program.
1. Start logging in your foods to the Fate on Your Plate online software and learn exactly what nutrients are missing from your diet. Once you know what your deficiencies are, you can simply click on them and learn what to eat to put those missing nutrients into your diet.
2. I can then log in and look at your entries and help you determine any food sensitivities and nutrient deficiencies. Armed with this information, we can make better food and supplement choices.
3. This is a perfect time of year to get started so start today!
Transform From "Before" to "After" Have you ever seen a really impressive "before" and "after" photo on a weight loss product?
Well, there's something that the diet industry doesn't want you to know. There is more involved than just the diet product, and it's the same across the board.
Look into the eyes of any person in their "before" picture and you'll see that they are deeply disturbed. The body they have is no longer in sync with the body they are able to accept.
They changed the body that they accept, and became disturbed.
Now look into their eyes in the "after" picture – see the sweet satisfaction? They now live in the body that they decided they could accept. What an amazing feeling that is.
Why are you still living life in your "before" body?
Sure, you have obstacles that get in your way – your schedule, your job, your kids, the weather, your knee injury from college…but ultimately you have the body that you accept.
I'm going to repeat that so it will really sink in.
You have the body that you accept.
Transform from "Before" to "After" You may not realize it, but you already posses everything you need to transform your body, and it all starts with taking responsibility for the body that you have today.
You are in your current shape because, until this moment, you've been OK with it.
Oh I know you aren't thrilled with it, and you even talk about losing weight and getting fit - but you haven't changed what you'll accept.
Here's how to transform your body in 3 steps:
Step One: Feel Disturbed It has been said that emotion creates motion. This is essential when it comes to personal transformation. Just like those folks in the "before" pictures, to transform your body you must first decide that you can't live another day in the body you currently have.
Get your emotions stirred up. Make a list of all the reasons that you're ready to lose weight and get fit. Get disturbed.
Step Two: Decide What You Want Without clarity you'll never get where you want to go. Now that you're disturbed with the body you have, decide what the body you can accept looks like.
Think in concrete and specific terms. Just like the captions under ‘before" and "after" pictures - "Shannon lost 50 lbs," "Matt lost 8 inches from his waist," "Catherine went from a size 20 to a size 4."
Get a clear picture in your mind of what you'll look like in your "after" picture and decide what the caption will read.
Step Three: Take Action The time spent between your inspiration (now) and taking action determines whether you will succeed or fail. Don't allow yourself to get stuck between inspiration and action - there is always something that you can do immediately.
Take action by emailing or calling me now to set up a fitness consultation.
I am here to take you from your "before" picture to your "after" picture. What will your "after" caption read? Get Disturbed You have to get disturbed with your current shape before you’ll take the action needed to transform your body. How do you get disturbed? Try these:
- Go shopping for a swim suit
- Try on all of your "skinny" clothes
- Look at old pictures from when you were in better shape
- Go to the doctor for a physical
