All Natural Food Finds
Healthy Choice and Lean Cuisine have been making healthier versions of "tv dinners" for many years. They have steamers, they have desserts, they have just about everything. A while back I was in my local Stop & Shop and realized they have something else—they have ALL NATURAL dinners. Normally I don't shop in the frozen food area except maybe to buy produce in the off season. I was walking by and I saw a 5/$10 sign and then of course on select varieties a 6/$10 with a "must by six" label. Intrigued, I went to the case and I was completely shocked to see these all natural frozen dinner choices. There are others available, these just happen to be the four that I decided to try.

Ellie SchmidtPublished 6 years ago in LongevityAn Intermittent Fasting Progress Food Guide
These final ten pounds have been the hardest for me to lose. They are coming off slowly but surely. Even though the progress is slow, I'm still happy with progress. I'm currently working out 6 days a week, mostly weight lifting and HIIT (high intensity interval training) cardio sessions, meaning quick bursts of high intensity cardio movements followed by short rest periods. I should be a fat burning machine, but my metabolism slows as I lose more weight. I will explore the different scientific approaches to speeding up metabolism later, but for now, I'm going to try a tactic that has helped balance me in the past: intermittent fasting.
Gluten-Free Vegan on a Budget
Living as a vegan with a gluten intolerance is definitely not for the faint of heart. It takes willpower, determination, and a strong love of cooking (especially if you want to be a healthy gluten-free vegan).

There are always fad diets every year that people seem to go crazy for, from weight loss pills, magic drinks, needles, and much more. Elimination diets are trendy and very unsustainable for most people. Ketogenic diet or lifestyle is a type of elimination diet but also so much more. Similar to the Atkin's Diet, Ketogenic diet restricts carbs, to send your body into a state of Ketosis. Ketosis is a metabolic state that occurs when your body can no longer burn glucose for fuel. Glucose is sugar; carbohydrates break down into sugars that your body can use for energy. When there is no glucose from restricting carbs and sugar, your body will produce ketones. This state will break down fat in your body and start using fat for fuel.

You started your diet on Monday, after putting it off a few weeks. For the first day it’s fine, you eat your salad, you go to the gym, perfect.

There are two ways to stop eating omnivorously—either cold turkey or by weaning off. I struggled for years, slipping and sliding with diets. Until I looked up and saw what I'd been doing to myself, and saw what would come next.

New Year's resolutions are like new gym memberships. You start out motivated, raring to go, but (unless it's really your thing) the inspiration quickly fizzles out and it becomes a chore...
Kirsty KnellPublished 6 years ago in LongevityHealthy Living vs Dieting
Everyone gets to the point where they know they need to make a change. For me, I know that I need to be healthy. I need to know that one day I will wake up and be better. Of course, it doesn't happen overnight. You can't just decide cold turkey that you are going to give up on food completely. But it takes time. And lots of planning. And even more water. Water. Water. WATER.

Milestone MediaPublished 6 years ago in LongevityA Low Calorie Count Myth
Trying to lose weight or cut your calorie intake but nothing is working? Keep decreasing how many calories you eat every day but you still bloat and feel less energy? Replacing some of your meals with snacks but still can't fit into your favorite pair of jeans? Try to compromise your 1 can of pop for 1 ZERO calorie soda and your weight doesn't improve at any measure? Maybe it's not so much the amount of calories you are eating, but the kind of calories you eat. Maybe many know this and maybe many don't, but sometimes it's the more you eat that determines how much weight you will lose, and what kind of weight you will keep.
