Optimize Weight-Loss! Lose Weight Quicky, Weight-Loss N.Y., Eating Breakfast

Eat Breakfast NOW, Eat Less LATER

Studies have shown that people who skip breakfast are on a fast track to heart disease and weight gain. The study that was performed found that healthy women that skipped breakfast for 2 weeks ate more throughout the day, had increased insulin resistance, and developed higher “bad cholesterol, LDL” levels than women that ate breakfast everyday. High LDL cholesterol levels and increased insulin resistance are both major risk factors for heart disease

SOURCE: Farshchi, H. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, February 2005; vol 81: 388-396

It is common in a place like New York City that the population finds itself in a morning rush that breakfast is a meal that is often ignored. As time has passed the prevalence of obesity has increased dramatically in both urban and suburban environments. One of the common complaints a new patient will tell is that they lack energy and are tired throughout the whole day, especially from 1pm – 4pm. When I analyze the food diary presented to me 99% of these patients have either eaten an inadequate breakfast or skipped it entirely. The body will feel run down and tired from the afternoon to early evening if it does not receive adequate calories to burn as energy early in the day. As soon as I correct this mistake most patients see an immediate change in energy levels. I help these patients not only meal plan correctly but also provide idea’s and recipes to use that will fit into a hectic lifestyle and minimal time in the morning to devote to having a traditionally “sit down” morning meal. I am realistic and won’t expect that a person will have the time to make breakfast every morning due to time constraints, but I have ways to ensure you get all the necessary nutrients without spending all the time it might normally take to prepare a complete meal.

The most important results from the study showed that when the women ate breakfast, ate about 100 fewer calories per day (an average of 1,665 calories per day vs. 1,756 calories per day over a three-day measurement period). 100 calories less per day equals 700 calories per week and 2,800 calories per month! That’s a great start to losing weight, avoiding diabetes, and decreasing your chances of heart disease. Add to this even better eating habit throughout the day and resistance exercise 4 times a week and you will see monumental changes in your body within a month.

Nutritional Myths Revealed, Nutrition & Wellness Brooklyn NY, Weight-loss Brooklyn

So you’ve heard the master cleanse is a great way to lose weight huh? How about that weight-loss plan where you don’t eating anything until you feel like your going to pass out and then you have a piece of cheese? Ok, Ok, I stole that one from The Devil Wears Prada…. but the truth is there are many myths regarding nutrition and weigh-loss out there, lets see if I can shed a the light on a few.

Myth: Frozen vegetables are not as good as fresh ones. Most frozen vegetables are picked when they are at the ripest and then flash frozen. So in terms of nutrient content it ranks right up there with fresh harvested vegetables. Depending on where and when you buy fruits and vegetables they could have been sitting in transport for weeks before reaching the produce section. Now don’t get me wrong there’s most liekly nothing wrong with the veggies/fruits your getting in your supermarket but don’t be afraid to get frozen ones as well.

Myth: English muffins are nutritious. One English muffin has fewer calories then 2 slices of bread but is nearly devoid of fiber, protein, and vitamins. This is an example of empty calories. Try Ezekiel 316 bread or anything made from sprouted grains. This will generally have twice as much fiber, 1/3 more protein, and gluten free.

Myth: Pretzels are a good snack. Although 1 oz. of pretzels only contains about 110 calories, this snack scores a whopping 81 on the glycemic index. This is a higher glycemic index than ice cream and jelly beans. This will spike insulin levels and raise blood sugar, a big NO with both weight-loss and healthy nutrition.

Myth: California rolls are a good choice when trying to lose weight. The best part of this food is the seaweed it is wrapped in and the avocado. This combo contains iodine, omega 3-6, and selenium. The rest of this roll is rice and imitation crab, both of which are high in sugar with no protein. Try sashimi and seaweed salad.

Myth: All yogurts are good for you. This is a huge pitfall! Plain yogurt is beneficial, if the word ‘corn syrup’ or ‘high fructose’ is in the ingredient list- toss it! Its not uncommon to find yogurt with over 45g of sugar!! Stonyfield is a reputable brand; shoot for less then 20g of sugar. I personally love FAGE 0% yogurt, its creamy, has plently of protein, and has a cool name… mix with a few berries a small amount of granola and its unbeatable.

Myth: Fat-Free salad dressing is good for you. Although having less fat is a plus, most companies will make up for the taste by adding more sugar or artificial sweeteners. REMEMBER… if you can’t pronounce the ingredient its probaby not good for you! The removal of fat has also been shown to interfere with vitamin absorption. Ohio state researchers found people who are dressing with fat absorbed 15x more beta-carotene and 5x more lutein- than compared to fat-free dressing. Try balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil (The greener the better).

There are so many pitfalls when trying to lose weight, don’t ever just take anything at face value, read ingredient labels, ask quesitons, complare brands, and stay away from marketing jargon words. Remember that putting together anything is not usually wise without reading the directions so why put something in your body without looking at the ingredients! If your still confused, contact a professional to answer your questions, feel free to contact me!

Set Goals, Setting Nutritional Goals, Brooklyn, How to Succeed

Set Goals.. This is sounds easy but it really one of the more difficult parts of implementing a new medical protocol. Where do you begin when you want to drop a few pounds, gain strength, or simply enhance your overall performance? Start by defining your personal goals. The first step in any successful exercise program is proper identification of your ideal fitness goals. Once set, you can choose the best strategy to meet your own personal objectives.
The most common mistake people make when starting an exercise regimen lies within the approach. Unless properly trained, even when the motivation exists, many people have difficulty meeting their specific goals and eventually give up unsatisfied. Most tend to reuse equipment or rely on classes for direction; although these people are capable of meeting their goals, they fail to see results because their workouts lack the variety the body needs to perform at optimal levels.
Overuse of the same cardiovascular or strength-training equipment also tends to lead to workout fatigue or boredom, and can even lead to serious injury if used incorrectly.

Setting Realistic Goals
Goals should be realistic and measurable. Begin by identifying your long-term goals. This can be the total number of inches to loose, pounds to lift, or minutes of cardiovascular when endurance-training. Make sure you assign goals that require dedication to obtain but are not “unrealistic.” An unattainable goal only decreases motivation and self-esteem.
After you’ve written down your long-term goals and developed a realistic time frame in which to achieve them, break them down to smaller steps. For example, if you would like to lose 15 pounds to fit into a dress for a special occasion in three months time, set your monthly goal to a net-loss of around 5 pounds per month. Then break the same goal down further to twelve weekly goals of about -1.25 pounds. Try to visualize yourself attaining each step and finally reaching your goal.
Depending on your starting weight, if you’ve made the proper changes in diet and exercise, you will notice the pounds melting away—usually fastest at first then slowly stabilizing as your build muscle. It’s important to realize that your body weight varies slightly throughout the day, and for women, the phases of the menstrual cycle, so don’t get discouraged if the scale moves slightly in the wrong direction occasionally.
When strength training, begin by understanding the motions of the exercises, followed by stabilization and proprioception (balance), then machines with free weights to focus on building Strength. In no time, you will be on the way to benching your goal weight correctly and without risk of injury.

Record Your Progress
Weigh yourself weekly and record your progress in a fitness journal as you go. Goals can always be readjusted once you learn how your body reacts to training; so don’t feel pressured to remain within ironclad restrictions as long as you see positive changes. If you decide to revise your weekly goals, do so only to challenge yourself more rather than lowering the bar or consider expanding the time frame, but do not loose sight of your long-term objective.
Check off each step in your journal once it has been achieved. This will not only foster a sense of accomplishment, it will also ensure that you are focused and on track. If you progress more slowly then you had hoped or would like to learn how to further enhance your personal program, enlist the support of a trained professional. Your journal will serve not only to measure progress towards your goal, but also an accurate reminder of where you began.
In addition to weight loss, you will also notice improvements in REM sleep, energy levels throughout the day and overall sense of well-being.

Also Consider
When setting goals, take the following factors into account. It is important to know that although they will not determine what you can achieve, they are important when deciding on the best way to go about training.
· Starting weight
· Personal and Family History
· Risk Factors
· Age
· Persistent Medical Conditions
· Eating Habits
· Current Activity Level
· Occupation
· Time Constraints
· Other External Limiting Obligations

Checking your body fat percentage is also a good way to determine your body’s current condition. Women should never set weight loss goals below 12% body fat—which the female menses is partially dependent upon. This can be done with a help of a professional.
