Over the summer I gave you some tips on staying fit once you had gotten your great results. We were constantly getting testimonials and feedback from the 6 Week Beach Body Program that I wanted to share some “tricks” that I use to stay slim so all of you who have been dropping weight with us since the summer could keep on track easily! Well now I have another tip.
Recently I have been reading “French Women Don’t Get Fat” by Mireille Guiliano. I have known about the book for years but have not gotten around to reading it until now.
I had a question last night from a participant on the 6 Week Beach Body Program and she started out by saying, “can I ask a stupid question?”
We’ve been talking a lot on the 6 Week Beach Body Program about what to do after you lose the 5-15 pounds to keep it off and to keep getting results. I have come up with 5 “tricks” that I realize I practice all the time that you may not.
March is my favorite month because it’s about new beginnings. Spring, after all, arrives
“Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” Maria Robinson
With over 300 muscles and 200 bones, it’s obvious to most people that fitness is necessary to keep our bodies active, strong, lean and healthy-the stronger last longer and have a better chance at survival. In our modern society, we have a need for more exercise because daily living has eliminated most physical labor. Computers, cars, machines and technology do most of the work for us with the touch of a button. Now more than ever, we need fitness and exercise to keep our bodies healthy.
I am taking a break from writing the book to share something that happens every time I get a workout in outside in a public area.
What started out as an experiment 3 years ago has turned into the preferred way of life. One month before my wedding, I decided to eat gluten free to see what effect it had on my body. In 10 days, I was down 4 pounds. Knowing this was water weight only, I was intrigued by the thought that my body was holding onto extra water because of gluten. I pretty much decided on the spot that I didn’t need gluten and I could live without it just fine!
This past weekend we had a local church putting on a Greek Food Festival. For those of you who do not know, I am Greek (and Italian). I grew up in the Greek Church for 13 years and we also put on a food festival every year. So I know and love this food…..
