THE PROBLEM WITH REFINED SUGARS

Filed under: Health & Lifestyle, Weight Lost — WorkerBee @ 11:30 am

Sweets will rot your teeth and make you fat. True? Maybe in part, however more likely an over-exaggerated sweeping statement. When it comes to sweets moderation is the key. But what is moderation? Obviously moderation is not the general rule, or we would not be experiencing the hike in diabetes Diabetes.


Let’s explore some of the real issues with refined white sugar


I rarely get to watch television, so I was happy to find myself in front TV watching a food show recently. The week’s topic was Sweets. It always surprises me to see refined sugar and all its products exalted as fun, exciting even, and (while a bit ?naughty’) a normal part of our diet. The host mentioned that in New Zealand we eat tonnes of it.

TREADMILL VS ELLIPTICAL: A NEVER ENDING ARGUMENT

Filed under: Health & Lifestyle, Weight Lost — WorkerBee @ 10:38 pm

The treadmill vs elliptical debate has been prevalent for some time. The treadmill vs elliptical debate isn’t valid since selection of either one depends upon the needs, wants and desires of users in terms of workout programs. The treadmill has its own set of benefits and elliptical trainers have its own set of benefits so it can be a tough decision.


The question arises in regards to which is better. The treadmill vs elliptical superiority question is not answerable because both serve different purposes and are beneficial to a workout program.

Jogging

29

I remember as a kid when jogging first came into vogue. It was the thing to do. And of course, the more popular it became, the more gadgets that people had to have for their jogging routine, including the outfits, the walkmans, you name it. Even advertising latched onto the jogging craze. Just about every commercial you saw had a jogger in it. Well, jogging isn’t the big craze that it once was, but the benefits of this great form of exercise are still there. That much hasn’t changed. In this article, we’re going to cover just some of the benefits of jogging. Hopefully, after reading this, you’ll be digging into your hope chest and getting out your old walkman once again.

Of all the exercise programs, walking is perhaps the simplest and cheapest. Walking can also be one of the most effective exercise programs because walking is an exercise that many of us enjoy and will actually take time out of our busy days to do.

Eating raw foods is natural. Our bodies thrive on all that is fresh and vital. A raw food diet (or increasing the amount of raw food that you eat) is bound to bring a feeling of increased wellbeing.

5 TIPS TO FINALLY GET RID OF CELLULITE

Filed under: Health & Lifestyle, Weight Lost, Wellness & Life Styles — WorkerBee @ 6:12 pm

Doesn’t it seem as though summer is coming a bit quicker this year? Each day brings us one step closer to busting out the bathing suits and baring our bodies. This is the time of year when many people, women in particular, start scrutinizing their body closer than ever. My inbox is proof of this. I have decided to write an article about the number one question of last week- how to banish cellulite.

I was a bit surprised at the many misconceptions surrounding cellulite. A lot of women asked if such-and-such cream would work, if they should stop eating cottage cheese or if surgery was their only option.

NO WILLPOWER TO LOSE WEIGHT? TRY WON’T-POWER!

Filed under: Health & Lifestyle, Weight Lost — WorkerBee @ 10:11 am

Have you tried to lose weight, but failed because you have no willpower? Try a little “won’t-power,” and see if it helps!
Instead of setting a high goal for weight loss Weight Loss, live your life one day at a time, and you may be amazed at the results!

Repeat after me:

Just for today…

I won’t skip breakfast. I know that if I don’t have breakfast, I’ll be starved later in the day and end up eating more calories than I should. I’ll make sure to have some protein, such as an egg or peanut butter, some fruit or natural fruit juice, and a whole grain, such as oatmeal or whole-wheat toast.

THE WEIGHT LOSS INDUSTRY, ARE THEY REALLY TELLING US THE TRUTH?

Filed under: Health & Lifestyle, Weight Lost — WorkerBee @ 4:05 pm

Everyone who has ever tried to lose weight and keep it off knows that it is a very hard thing to do. In fact, nothing can be closer to the truth than to say that weight loss Weight Loss is hard. So it’s no wonder that when one weight loss company or another comes up with their new, miracle breakthrough weight loss pill that will simply melt the fat off while you sleep, regardless of what you eat, people can’t wait to make their three easy payments of only $29.95 while feverishly awaiting the arrival of their weight loss “dream come true”.
But, is it really a dream come true, or just merely a weight loss nightmare? As most people know, there have been countless numbers of products like this on the market that make outrageous claims of monumental weight loss in very little time with little or no effort on your part. Most people also know that not one of these products has ever lived up to their claims, and that a good deal of these products have also been known to yield dangerous side affects (fen/phen and redux for example). So why is it that weight loss companies continue to bombard us with new products every year that are no better than last year’s products?

DIET PILLS OR EXERCISE- A DEBATE

Filed under: Health & Lifestyle, Weight Lost — WorkerBee @ 11:09 pm

Would Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, James Bond, Michael Jackson and Arnold still have a huge fan following if they were overweight/obese? Would David Beckom, Andre Agasse, Jinedin Jidane and Tigesr Woods be so agile in their respective games if they were overweight/obese? The mental appreciation of the subject is likely to create a furore in our minds. Does it lead to a conclusion that behind every successful man/woman there is an effective weight control method?
Population across the world has realized the competitive environment they are in, today. If only your hard work can be supplemented by reasonably good looks coupled with a fit body, success is definitely under your belt.
