It
is important to eat protein in the diet says Houston personal trainer
Melissa, because protein is the more filling than fat or carbohydrates.
When choosing a protein, it is good to look for one that has the least
number of calories and of all animal proteins, turkey has the fewest
calories per ounce. Turkey has the amino acid leucine which helps the
body retain muscle mass when a personal training client is attempting a
weight loss program. Preserving muscle mass is key to keeping a fast
metabolism because muscle is almost 24 percent more dense than fat in
the body and requires more calories to maintain it.
Most personal trainers take some protein in the form of protein shakes
or supplements but the most ideal form of protein comes when eating
real food instead of engineered food. Balance and consistency is the
key.

Grapefruit helps weight loss, Great prices now on 18 pounds at Houston's Food Town |
|
|
Recent
studies show that if a person eats three grapefruit a day, and that is
all they do differently with their eating, they will lose approximately
four more pounds in six weeks. That is a significant finding and it is
thought that the acidity of the grapefruits contribute to that weight
loss effect. Grapefruit are also high in vitamins and right now, the
delicious tasty red version that is very sweet is available for a great
price. Houston Personal Trainer Melissa found that Food Town has
eighteen pounds of the fruit in bags for only $3.99 and they are the
sweetest grapefruit she has tasted in a while. Personal training in
Houston includes helping weight loss clients find the useful tips on
eating and exercising and good food choices and so Personal Trainer
Melissa wants to pass this on to anyone interested in speeding up their
weight loss for a few weeks. If on medication, it is important to note
that some meds are enhanced by grapefruit so those individuals need to
consult with their doctors.

Why are some successful at weight loss while others fail to lose weight? |
|
|
What makes some individuals successful when taking on a challenge such
as losing weight while others fail? As a Houston Personal Trainer, I
spend a lot of time trying to learn the psyche of individuals who have
self sabotaging behaviors that prevent them from achieving their
Houston workout goals. In fact I just took a Personal Training
recertification class about that very thing. In a nutshell, I learned
that the "rewards" for over eating, even though the rewards may be
temporary, provide much satisfaction and the rewards outweigh the "punishment" of
eventually being overweight or fat. In order to help these men and
women personal training workout clients succeed at weight loss and
slimming, I have to communicate a great deal about behaviors that do
not contribute to success. This applies to so many things in life ...as
a point of discussion, I know a handsome guy, extreemly
intelligent, who has a good education, the finances to go
to college and was accepted at some excellent schools. However, the
"rewards" of financial independence after school, did not outweigh the
"rewards" of immediate gratification from drug use. This drug addiction
(which is similar to a food addiction) turned into such a monster that
he ended up in the court systems, and unfortunately even that has not
deterred him. It is hard to imagine that a person can self destruct
like that but it happens all the time.
One of my Houston Personal Training clients complains a lot that
her parents and friends, but mainly her husband eat food she cannot
have in front of her. She felt that it was not considerate. It may not
be considerate, I explained to her..but the fact is, that her
family does NOT have the difficulties of overweight to deal with as
THEIR challenge in life..but her good looking husband DOES have the
challenge of beautiful women flirting with him all day long. He has to
know how to say no to them just like she has to learn how to say no to
the excessive food intake. Each person has a different challenge..and
giving in to immediate gratification or blaming others is never the
answer. This beautiful girl has gained fourty pounds in two years
since marriage so her eating is way more than her body requires. When A
Houston in home personal training client takes ownership of her choices
regarding food, she will then start to be more successful. Those
Houston Personal Training clients who blame others for their lack of
success are always going to fail.

Pancakes recipie with five grains help with weight loss says Houston in home trainer of athletes |
|
|
Weight
Loss requires a disciplined approach to eating and often some
favorite foods have to be eliminated to reach the desired goals.
Runners need carbs for energy but often they sabotage their weight
loss efforts by eating the wrong carbs.
HOWEVER, the recipe below for three grain pancakes is a healthy, low
glycemic index choice for breakfast for even the strictest dieter.or
runner.
These pancakes have oats (full of protein, iron and fiber), millet
(full of iron, thiamine and fiber) and flax seeds (rich in iron, fiber
and protein). Flax seeds are known as a modern miracle food because
they have omega 3 fatty acids which can lower cholesterol and blood
triglycerides. Millet is the sixth most important grain in the world
and is the least allergenic and most digestible grain and provides a
great deal of the B Vitamins. It is also considered a good food to eat
for longetivity. Hull-less Oat kernels are a high source of protein,
almost equivalent of soy protein and are also good for lowering blood cholesterol.
This recipe makes about fifteen 3-inch pancakes and one
serving is two pancakes.
1/2 cup Flax Seeds, 1/2 cup millet, 1/2 cup whole grain oats, two eggs
beaten (or egg whites only if trying to lower cholesterol), 1 1/2 cup water, 1 tbs. sugar, 1 tsp Vanilla, 1 tsp. cinnamon,
1 tbs. baking soda, 1/3 tsp. salt, 1 Cup Flour, mini chocolate chips
Beat eggs and add water and vanilla and then all of the dry
ingredients. Stir and if the mixture is too thick, add more water till
it is the consistency of a creamy soup. Pour three inch pancakes into a
heated skillet and top with about six chocolate chips. Serve TWO
pancakes with light syrup...the recipe will make pancakes for a week
if you make the whole recipie and store them in a plastic container.
