Spending $151 p/ week to get Fat!?

So here’s the deal boys and girls, it’s no secret that our great nation is facing an epidemic of immense proportion; No I’m not talking about Ebola!! I’m of course alluding to the obesity crisis plaguing our society and shortening our children’s life expectancies.

Why Your Low Carb Diet Isn’t Working

You’ve tried all kinds of fad diets, magic pills, and exercise routines with limited success. The times that you have been able to drop some of that repulsive and frustrating body fat that just seems to like you way too much to permanently pack up and leave, it seems it always somehow ends up coming back, and often times, in more abundance then before. So what gives?

The Healthiest Fast Foods

Clearly we are all intelligent enough to know when trying to lose weight, get washboard abs, or rid ourselves of those unsightly love handles and belly fat, the drive-thru should be avoided like the Black Plague. Inevitably, at some point, we will all find ourselves in a position where life happens, and we’re stuck having to re-fuel at one of the many fast food restaurants that generously contribute to the obesity epidemic plaguing our great nation. At this point it’s important we make the most informed decision possible with the limited resources available.

Making Lifestyle Changes

Well, most of us can only keep up with an extreme diet for so long. Once we’ve reached our goal weight, we can’t wait to start eating “normally” again. The problem is, that “normal” eating is what caused all that weight gain in the first place! As soon as you go back to eating the same way you used to, those pounds come marching back on. In order to successfully lose weight and keep it off, you’re going to have to address your entire lifestyle. Hence the principles we advocate with all of you living the Nutrition Solutions Lifestyle. This means looking at what you eat, why you eat it, how much you exercise, and the choices you make both within your personal and professional everyday life.

5 Reason You Should Never Skip Breakfast

Anyone else sick of hearing about how breakfast is the most important meal of the day!? If you’re like most then the answer is probably yes. But why have we developed such a negative association with this harmless and simple saying? Simply put, a lot of us either skip breakfast or are purchasing ours from the drive thru or vending machine at work; clearly not the best options by any means especially for those trying to lose weight and live healthier lifestyles.
