June 1st…almost halfway into 2009

What goals have you achieved toward your health and fitness?  It is June 1st and that means we are almost six months into the year 2009.  Can you say you have put forth the necessary actions, habits and discipline that will help you achieve your lifetime goals?  I would love to help you out and I am just about finished with a brand new gift for those of you who subscribe to this blog.

Cannot wait to get it out to you and it has to do with helping you make the right choice or decision each and every time you are about to eat or drink something.

Still Made It To The Gym

Even after a full-day of sitting at a nutrition conference and then driving for 40 minutes, I made it to the gym for a workout.  Glad I did it and feel better for doing it, and now it’s only 8:30pm and I am ready to get some sleep.  Many people do not realize when you are using your brain your glucose levels plummet and hence your glucose requirement escalates.  It is a pretty easy to understand relationship too, the more you stress the brain when learning and studying the more glucose it needs.  For this reason I know how I would feel if I did not eat well and often and stay hydrated during an eight hour learning session.  I start at home with a great breakfast, this morning was a two-egg omelet with green onions and some cottage cheese 1% fat and all my supplements.  Then a couple of hours later a banana and yogurt. Then lunch was two white meat chicken skewers, salad, and steamed veggies and supplements.  Snack two hours later was a protein shake.  One hour later was a cubed mixed fruit bowl.  Dinner consisted of fava beans, salad, and sea bass and supplements.  Of course throughout the entire day I sipped water and stayed well hydrated.  By the end of the day even though I was very exhausted from the listening and learning process I was not that physically tired, so I was able to go to the gym and have a decent workout.  

Make A Commitment to Your Goals

Hey everyone who has a goal they haven’t reached!!

I am probably talking to everyone on the face of this planet with todays intro, but that’s my point.

I have a revelation to share with everyone and it is quite simply put, a no-brainer!

Everyone would like to look a certain way, feel a certain level of energy, be healthy and fit with low body fat percentage, get the proper amount of sleep and be stress-free………..RIGHT??

So why are so many people falling short of these goals and continue to chase that elusive “Ideal” life? Make A Commitment to Your Goals 

How Are You So Fit…But Use So Much “Oil” In Your Diet?

This is a question which was asked of me not too long ago.  I am Italian you know.  We use a lot of olive oil for many different foods and cooking preparations.

So why am I so fit?  Well, thanks for the compliment first off, and what might seem as a lot of oil to you is but the right quantity for my lifestyle and food choices.

Sugar…..Are You Addicted??

Attention all health and fitness enthusiasts.

Sugar is killing you!  Slowly for some, and very quickly for others.  I want you to watch this video on

SUGAR

and stay tuned to some more posts I will be writing for you on this topic.

Why you should stop eating sugar and all the processed foods you currently eat should be  pretty obvious but if you are addicted it can be pretty challenging right?

Back To The Nutrition Basics Today

Since yesterday was indulgence day what do you think today was?  Protein, good carbs, fruits and veggies and water.  Throw in some supplements and cardio plus a muscle conditioning workout and you have a healthy day back on track.

This is what it is all about folks.  My lifetime goal once again for those who forgot:

“My goal is to consistently keep practicing healthy habits the majority of the time and only occasionally allow for indulgence.  This is my lifetime goal that will propel me forward and move me toward all of my health, fitness and lifetime goals.”

Oh sweet indulgence day!!

Today was my day, my day to indulge and enjoy food that I do not normally consume too much of in any given month of the year.  Want to know what I had?

Apple pie, mmmmmmmmmm, it was good and I don’t feel a bit guilty since I spent the 5 days prior to today, Mother’s day, eating very clean and healthy food.

So, moral of being consistently disciplined and eating healthy the majority of the time and allowing for the occasional indulgence, it feels good and it’s good for you!!

Done!

Healthy Sleep not beginners luck

Two nights in a row for our 7-week old.  Last night the timing was a bit different but she slept 11:15pm to 6am this morning.  Wow, there are few words that can describe the feeling of being well rested with a newborn but “Whew” is one of them.

I am plugging away with http://getyourbabytosleep.com and the interviews with the life wellness professionals is going really well.
