Article by Mike Geary , Certified Nutrition Specialist, Certified Personal Trainer Author of best-sellers:  The Fat-Burning Kitchen & The Top 101 Foods that FIGHT Aging A unique exercise you can use to help flatten your stomach while driving in the car? This may sound a little weird to do this in the car, but it actually WORKS to slowly help to flatten your belly over time if done consistently. With today's short article, I wanted to show you a VERY simple exercise that you can do anytime, anywhere to help get a flatter stomach over time. Now I will preface this by saying that this specific exercise does NOT increase fat burning , but it CAN help to flatten your stomach by strengthening your deeper transversus abdominis muscles and hence "pulling in" a lazy stomach (aka beer belly or "pooch belly"). It involves doing an exercise called "ab vacuums"... I find it a good time to get in the habit of doing daily ab vacuums while driving ...

Article by George Hawkins,  Reading Recovery, Co-team Leader Year One and Languages Teacher (2012-present) I was not overweight, early 40s, and I ate a healthy diet. I had no symptoms that I noticed. In retrospect, I was often sleepy in the afternoon - scarily, when driving, but put it down to tiredness. One afternoon, my vision suddenly started to shake. The shaking went on for a few seconds. I had headaches and lethargy. So I went to my GP, who ordered a blood test. I was extremely surprised to find I had diabetes type 2 - despite the fact it was in my family. I was put on metformin, I think, 2 pills a day, but it did not make much difference. Eventually the amount was raised to 4 pills a day. As I read and learned more about the condition, I was making changes to my diet and cutting down carbs, increasing protein as best I could. My blood sugars came down and the amount of metformin was reduced. Now, a couple of years after diagnosis, my latest blood tests show sugar l...

I am sure you have all heard that French women don’t get fat. Things are changing a bit over there, but it's true! After 6 years of being married to a Frenchman and losing 20+ pounds myself simply by adapting to the French lifestyle, I have learned the tricks to becoming fit like the French, and I am going to share some tips with you. You don’t need to waste hours a day in a gym to lose weight and trim that belly. Did you know that when it comes to being fit, 80% is what you eat, and 20% is what you do? That sounds much more enjoyable than the other way around, doesn’t it? That means that most of your fitness comes from what you eat and less from what you sweat. Don’t get me wrong, I love to work out. It makes me feel so good afterward. However, for me, life is much more enjoyable if I can control my weight and keep a tight figure without spending my life on a treadmill. Not to mention, having some treats along the way. Here are some tips on getting fit like the French: ...

Great news if you like money!  Did you know, if you bought $1000 of Google in 2004 at its initial public offering, then it would be worth $1,575,000 today? Or if you had invested $1000 worth of shares in Microsoft in 1985 it would be worth $7,974,720.00 by now? Now I could go on and on forever, but you get my point. It’s important to know what to put your money in and at what time. Because had you put in $1 in the right place just a few years ago, you just might be a multi-millionaire by now… But hindsight is always 20/20 and the tech boom of the 90s is now well and truly over.

Hey, I am so excited today. I got paid testing new apps, just like that. First time in my life!!! Do you use a lot of apps on your smartphone or tablet? If you are like most people you probably do, but did you know that there is a way you can actually get paid for using the hottest new apps as soon as they are released? Check it out here >> Click me When you think about the fact that the app market is growing like crazy and is worth billions of dollars, it’s easy to see why this makes sense. Every day thousands of apps are released into the app store, and most get lost amongst the crowd. Developing an app costs thousands of dollars and app developers really don’t want to put all that effort in just to see it flop, so they pay regular app users to download their apps, test them and write a review. This helps their app climb the rankings in the app store and get positive feedback, the more money they make the more they have to pay app testers like you! This is a HUGE ...

This email below was received from Carisa worth sharing. Don't be a hoarder of information especially when it involve health. Chef Gui here, again. Yesterday I sent you an email about the Best Cookbooks for Weight Loss and Healthy Cooking. But I forgot to emphasize one called Paleo Hacks. You see, the Paleo lifestyle (on which our weight loss program is inspired) has been known to melt away stubborn fat, keep your blood sugar in check, and increase energy. It's also a KEY COMPONENT to avoid suffering from Insulin Resistance (the nightmare condition that Carissa always warns you about!). This is precisely why, as a chef I feel responsible for warning you and showing you exactly what to do to avoid gaining weight and risking it all eating junk. By definition Insulin resistance (IR) is a pathological condition in which cells fail to respond normally to the hormone insulin. ... When the body produces insulin under conditions of insulin resistance, the cells are resi...

Article by Gabrielle Sheehan, www.quora.com I’ve been trying to eat healthier lately, so I’ve actually been doing research in this same issue! I realized because I used to drink the Chobani yogurt smoothies for breakfast because greek yogurt is healthy and these drinks were loaded with protein. It wasn’t until a roommate pointed out how full of sugar these drinks are. Here are some other things I found that are actually not as healthy for you as you would think: Salad dressing from the grocery story. The majority of the time salad is a healthy option but, most of the premade and bottled dressings have a ton of calories. Try mixing up your own simple dressing at home when making salad! Vegan baked goods. This doesn’t apply to all vegan goods, but make sure you are looking at the nutritional facts when you are choosing the vegan option to “be healthy”. Most vegan foods are loaded with tons more sugar and end up being 3X the amount of calories as the non-vegan option. Flavo...
