Small and steady leads to success

Scott Schwab:
With all of the focus on dieting at this point in the year I wanted to write about a very simple additive for helping everyone. Our goal has always been to help people with the lifestyle change and not just to diet. Unfortunately in about a month people will no longer be talking about the diet that they are doing and will be living the life that they lived before they tried HCG, weight watchers, jenny craig, etc. I am a huge supporter of diets, but only as they can be maintained in a lifestyle. The lifestyle is the real thing that needs to change. Start with a diet, but build up your walls of defense around you so you are protected. What I mean is do something to jump start the body, (whatever diet you choose), and then look at the ways you can support it long term. I have been reminded again and again of the continued people that have had success with HCG. I do not debate the success that people have, but it is not sustainable in the long term. I have read studies that 6 months to a year later people have gained all the weight back and then some. That is why I am hesitant to try it or recommend it. I would like to see how people do through an entire year with the diet, then we can look at it seriously. However, with that said, I believe in the short run it can really help and be the source of getting the body started. The small and steady steps are those steps that lead to success. Such as replacing all drinks with water. Our body is 70% water and the more we replenish what is in our bodies, the more we eliminate toxins and harmful bacteria. We also avoid the sugars that are proaned to helping our body pack on weight. Water is something that I believe very strongly in. Here is another. Start your day off with Breakfast. I know, I know, your body isn't ready for food, and you do better with out it. I have even heard that people get sick if they start with a breakfast. Here is the facts; your body is like a huge machine that takes time to warm up and get going. The sooner that you can start your metabolism and your digestive system going, the more you will find yourself being regular and able to maintain healthy lifestyle and even weight loss. In a study of over 100 participants who had very similar lifestyles, those that ate breakfast were less likely to burn out, had more energy, and lost weight naturally. In short, eat a good breakfast, even if you start with a smoothie made at home, or even a slim fast shake. Get the body moving.
Smoothie
Here is a great idea for a smoothie in the morning. Have a time release protein that will give you energy for the entire day.
8oz of water in a blender
banana(or if another fresh fruit chopped up)
Yogurt ( lite yogurt, low calorie, or fiber is great)
Frozen fruit (you can get big bags at any grocery store)
Protein, the key is to have everything blending and then add the protein into the mix. That way it blends completely. You can also add fiber and veggies are always really great. If you need protein or any supplement for that matter you can let us know and we will ship directly to you. We have had the best results with Myogenix, but have access to about any brand you would like.
