10 Steps towards Permanent Weight Loss, Improved Vitality, and Optimal Health

August 19th, 2010 -- Posted in Wheat, egg, peanut, milk | No Comments »

Weight loss, in the context of medicine, health or physical fitness, is a reduction of the total body mass, due to a mean loss of fluid, body fat or adipose tissue and/or lean mass, namely bone mineral deposits, muscle, tendon and other connective tissue. It can occur unintentionally due to an underlying disease or can arise from a conscious effort to improve an actual or perceived overweight or obese state. A crash diet refers to willful nutritional restriction (except water) for more than 12 hours. The desired result is to have the body burn fat for energy with the goal of losing a significant amount of weight in a short time. There is a possibility of excessive muscle loss, depending on the approach used. Your Body Mass Index is a measure of weight that takes height into account. Higher BMIs are often associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and heart disease.

You can maximize fat loss by incorporating the following into your lifestyle:
1) Use a Quality Fat Loss Supplement – To help reverse the cycle of fat gain, hundreds of phytonutrients in Yogic Slim act at the molecular level to raise metabolic rate, increase energy, prevent muscle loss, and stabilize hormones and insulin levels thus regulating appetite.
2) Weight Training – More muscle mass means a higher resting metabolic rate and more calories burned. Weight training 3 to 4 days per week (less than 1 hour per session with 30 to 60 second rest periods in between sets) will foster high levels of muscle building (anabolic) hormones and minimize muscle wasting (catabolic) hormones. Work each body part once a week (chest and back on day 1, legs on day 3, shoulders and arms on day 5).

3) Aerobics – 40 to 60 minutes of aerobics (jogging, fast walking, swimming, cycling) on alternating days from weight training will help to burn fat and calories, increase physical endurance, strengthen heart and lungs, help control blood lipid levels and blood pressure, increase insulin sensitivity, and enhance energy and ability to cope with stress. Since aerobics on an empty stomach rely on fat for energy, morning time is ideal for aerobics. The level of intensity should be within your target heart range. This means 60% to 85% of your maximum heart rate (you feel the workout is somewhat hard where you feel tired but can continue for the entire 40 to 60 minute period).

4) Carbohydrates – consume low to moderate GI (Glycemic Index) carbohydrates at all times. All low GI diets are based on the same principle of balancing blood sugar. The foods which are restricted on low GI diets are those which cause your blood sugar and insulin levels to rise fast and high. This results in more food being converted to fat. Some foods commonly believed to be healthy actually have a high GI index: dried dates, watermelon, banana, raisins, brown rice pasta, white rice, cornmeal, couscous, instant rice, white bread, wholemeal bread, dark rye, and popular cereals (Raisin Bran, Special K, Grape Nuts, Cornflakes, Rice Krispies, Cheerios, Puffed Wheat).

5) Protein – consume lean, complete protein regularly with meals to raise your metabolic and anabolic hormones and prevent lean tissue loss. Good protein sources are skinless chicken, salmon, tuna, sardines, low fat cottage cheese, egg whites, and turkey breast. Avoid luncheon meats, whole milk, ground beef, cheese, bacon, pork chops, and yogurt.

6) Reduce Saturated Fats and Replace with Polyunsaturated Fats (PUFAs) – Limit butter, red meat, cheese, mayonnaise, macadamia nuts, peanut butter, and sunflower seeds. Avoid margarine, foods with “partially hydrogenated” on labeling, processed vegetable oils, and fried foods. Regularly consume flax oil, non-processed vegetable oils, salmon, olive oil, hazelnuts, peanut oil, hemp, avocado, almonds, and fish oil.
7) Regularly Drink Water – Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water per day to avoid dehydration and help liberate fat stores to be burned as energy.

8) Multivitamins – A good quality multivitamin / mineral supplement is always advisable for maximizing metabolism, fat loss, and health.

9) Increase Fiber Intake – Fibrous vegetables like Broccoli, Cauliflower, Peppers, and Carrots, and other raw vegetables and brown rice and whole grains increase transit time of food, improve digestion, and enhance weight loss. They also add bulk to the diet which reduces appetite.

10) Eat 5 to 6 Small Meals Daily – Spreading food intake improves nutrient absorption, minimizes blood sugar fluctuations, and decreases fat-storing hormones and enzymes.

I have Eosinophillic Esophagitis. (Please help!)?

August 12th, 2010 -- Posted in Wheat, egg, peanut, milk | 1 Comment »

Okay so It has been a year now:(
I’m 13 and I was diagnosed with EE.
It is a disease where there are white blood cells in my Esophagus, They are attacking something that I either eat or breathe. It sucks. Right now I’m on a 6 food elimination diet. (I can’t eat Wheat, Soy, Milk, Peanuts, egg, and fish. I hate it. But I am really scared because If the blood cells are not gone after this diet, I will have to go on an all liquid diet, or possibly a feeding tube. I am losing all of my friends. They call me dramatic because I have complained about being sick once. Sometime I just cry and cry. My life is sucking and I really need help. Someone to pray that I will get better and I will get my life back. One year ago I was a normal and Happy girl, Now I feel like I’m just Hayden, the sick person.

Please help.

Also I now don’t have sleepovers because I feel sick at night. (Because I first started feeling sick at cheer camp) *Dragg* It was the WORST!! people thought I was faking because it took 7 doctors to figure out I wasn’t crazy:(

My symptoms include:
Nausea
Heart Burn
Feeling like I’m going to puke
Burping
Cramps
Constipation and Diarrhea
Depression?

Poor you, you shouldn’t have to deal with people’s ignorance as well as feeling awful.
Couldn’t you get some information explaining eosinophillic oesphagitis (UK spelling!) together and talk to your teachers at school about EE? Perhaps you, or they, could give a talk at school.
If your friends understood what you were dealing with they should, if they are true friends, be more supportive.
People – even adults – get scared of things they don’t understand and tend to shy away from them.

There is a link to a support group – NJ, Pennsylvania & Delaware, how to contact them and access to more information.
If you are nowhere near them at least they will tell you if there is a local group for you.

The lower link gives a simple explanation which might help you. Most stuff online is a bit clinical, perhaps the support society can suggest some diagrams, explanations.

I hope the doctors help you with your feelings and don’t get bogged down with all the technicalities. There’s a young lady around all the symptoms that fascinate them. Explain how you feel, show them all your post.

I wish you all the luck in the world from UK 19.51 on a dull cool supposedly summer evening.

weird pregnancy question…please help!?

August 9th, 2010 -- Posted in Wheat, egg, peanut, milk | 4 Comments »

I just realized that the grape jelly I’ve been eating almost everyday since I found out I was pregnant has an allergy warning on the label : may contain traces of milk, eggs, peanuts, wheat, soy, and ANCHOVIES. How gross! I’ve taken a PB & J sandwich almost every day to work for lunch (I used to be a lunchmeat sandwich kinda gal). I’ve never eaten anchovies and don’t know much about them. Even though they may only be found in trace amounts in the jelly, do you think i should be concerned at all since I’ve eaten so much of the jelly over the past 9 months. Thanks!

That just means that the jelly is made in the same plant as other products containing milk, eggs, etc. If there are any trace amounts of those ingredients in the jelly, it is not enough to harm your baby. Nearly all processed foods have a warning like that on the label.

July 28th, 2010 -- Posted in Wheat, egg, peanut, milk | 1 Comment »

So… lately every night, I wake up hungry! I am actually right now its around midnight and i woke up feeling sortof hundgry, I keep burping, I have a weird taste and my stomach is like making really weird noises!!! UGH SO ANNOYING! and then I start to get a little queasy! I really wanna sleep plzzz help!!
( I have EE which is like a acid reflux related disease, I am on a 6 food elimination diet, no soy, wheat, milk, egg, peanut, or fish. I just started the diet about a few weeks ago. Could that be why I’m so hungry? Because I don’t eat as much??)

Try eating a small snack before you go to bed or when you wake up feeling like this, like a small bowel of rice, a banana, a slice of turkey or something like that.

Is there a possibility my son outgrew his allergies?

July 25th, 2010 -- Posted in Wheat, egg, peanut, milk | 2 Comments »

My son was tested at 5 months for allergies. They stated he was allergic to wheat, eggs, milk,and peanuts. Now my son is 5 months old. We gave him fries not realizing that some fries contain wheat. He had no allergic reaction. Now my husband gave my son Noodles that contained eggs.Which I am not to happy about.He also did not have a reaction. Is there a possibility he could have outgrow his allergies so fast?

He can outgrow them, yes. Doctors say that it takes 7 years for one’s immune system to change allergies, but I don’t think that time frame is very accurate. He probably developed a new allergy though, so watch out!
