Course Correction and Amazing Results

November 23, 2010 by Bonni

So tonight is the Biggest Loser episode that I look forward to all season…makeover night!!!  If you have been watching all along, you will no doubt also love seeing the change from week one, till tonight, after the remaining 7 get their entire beings, made over.  If you have never watched this show before and want some inspiration to lose weight or just take charge of re-inventing yourself, tune it on NBC, 8pm eastern time and enjoy the transformations.  Remember, this is only about 10 weeks into the season–amazing results!  For those of you that think it can never be you, you don’t need to go on the show or have Bob and Jillian train you…you just need to get on AND stay on the journey.

I just ate a relatively easy and yummy, low calorie, plant-based lunch.  I took half of a bag of Gardein Beefless Tips and sauteed them in a drop of olive oil…after they browned all the way around, I left them a couple of minutes extra–this is because they don’t always get warm all the way through.  I put them on a La Tortilla Factory wrap and viola, lunch was made.  With less than 250 calories, about 20 grams of protein, 10 grams of fiber and too much sodium, it’s not perfect, but it is delicious and has ZERO grams of cholesterol…of course!  Can’t find cholesterol in products that don’t come from animals.  My hats off to Chef Tal Ronnen who introduced the world to Gardein products.  You can find these and other frozen Gardein products in your grocer’s freezer section.

For more about Chef Ronnen, lowering cholesterol through a plant-based diet, and Biggest Loser tips, check out this article that Carol sent to me yesterday.  Thanks, Carol.  I enjoyed and am glad to be able to share it.  Great job with your own dietary changes and results!!! You go girl.  As for the article below, I bet the people at Big Pharma wont like to read about his cholesterol change!!!  What we eat has SO much impact on our health, it is going to get harder and harder to blame things on bad genes!

Can’t wait to hear all about Mitch’s golf outing.  It’s a glorious weather day in South Florida, and I am happy that he is doing something he has wanted to do for a long time.

Those of you that pay attention, may notice that my blogging is being done later in the day.  In re-evaluating my time, too much other stuff was getting neglected during my early morning blogging time.  Course correction.  It’s always possible with ALL things.  There are a million great reasons we all get ourselves into places we don’t want to be, but there are no excuses.  Whatever it is you are ready to change, GET ON IT!

    Thanks for the pat on the back and the encouragement Bon.

    Bread is something that scares me and I usually stay away from it, but after reading your blog yesterday and finding myself in Panera Bread at lunch time today, I decided to give your philosophy on bread a try. I ordered the black bean soup and half a mediteranean veggie (no feta) sandwich on big chunky tomato basil bread. Super yummy 376 calories, and no one noticed that I was ordering in a way to stay vegan -although the bread looked like it had an egg wash on it (oops).

    Looking forward to BL tonight. Can’t wait to talk to everyone about it tomorrow.

    xoxo

    This is without a doubt a amazing hub about Seo, I have simply just began my own unique small business providing Seo solutions, Would you be kind enough to examine it out and also tell myself precisely what you actually think?

    I´ve been reading your blog for awhile and also it certainly not occurred to me to comment. That is totally ironic, because I´ve spent a lot of time over the history few months studying what it takes to make people comment on my own website. Right after reading a couple of your posts I guess it´s controversial topics that stir people´s emotions to the point exactly where they can´t simply ´let it go.´

    p90x I was told that that health is wealth. How can i keep myself healthy? One fact is to complete a frequent and physical exercise which increases the defense mechanisms thus preventing from sicknesses and diseases. It also prevents mental health, help prevents depression that will even augment a person’s p90x workout sex appeal or body image. Exercise is daily and will be practiced anywhere you’d like, however if you preferred to stay home and become fit then without a doubt regarding a home workout program that’s very convenient on your behalf and your family.The energy 90 extreme or called is usually a Ninety day program that mixes several different exercise techniques including cardio, yoga, resistance training, stretching and plyometrics.This program cycle lasts 13 weeks, 6 days per week of exercise. It’s got three rotations: classic, lean and doubles and you can now select based on your own personal goals. The program has different skills and muscles since its target.A large total of workouts. Most of your training is not as much as sixty minutes p90x workouts in duration, therefore it wouldn’t take much of your time. However, the abdominal workout or or referred to as a ?¡ãAb ripper X?¡À is accomplished 3 x per week, after six within the rotating workouts, ehich adds Quarter-hour of exercise. The dvd features an instructor and fitness models who is going to demonstrate a variety of techniques. Without doubt, because P90x comes with a fitness test to find out when the program would work for you.Furthermore, program is coupled with a nutrition and nutritional supplement plan. The nutrition plan’s composed of three phases. First phase emphasizes higher protein and carbohydrates, begin for the second phase boosts the area of carbohydrates and progress p90x dvd towards the third program which can be higher carbohydrates or the athletes diet. Each phase or program last 1 month. This training workouts reduce unwanted weight and increase basal fat burning capacity. The plan is focused on slimming down, improving physical function, increasing endurance, improving athletic performance, increasing flexibility and range, promoting long-term health, and improving eating habits. All of these will likely be useless unless you plan as well as set your goals. Setting a goal is critical and with that you are able to consume a routine daily to become healthy and fit. Another factor to weigh is discipline, the keyword to get a healthy lifestyle. Self-discipline within 3 months is just not much, it is actually the truth is achievable and you could begin right now and also a wonderful future ahead. http://www.fitness-dvd-shop.com/
