Obesity Is Reaching Epidemic Proportions

I was in an airport over the weekend and the one thing I noticed above everything else, was how many overweight people there were.
It was almost like an epidemic and the biggest shock was how many obese kids there were. But, I have to say, it wasn’t very surprising when I saw these kids tucking into burgers, chips, milkshakes, chocolates and just about everything else that was bad for them. And, the parents were the ones buying the food and drink.
What is wrong with parents today that they let their kids get this way? They have to take responsibility and not blame advertising or the prevalance of junk food. It’s up to them to teach their kids about being healthy and getting enough exercise.
I have 6 grandchildren ranging in age from 16 years to 20 months, and not one of these kids is overweight. Their parents monitor what they eat and they also regulate their exercise. They have all the computer games like X-Box and Wii, but their time on the computer is strictly limited and they are encouraged to participate in outdoor activities.
When I was growing up we were more active as we didn’t have the luxury of computer games and we also didn’t have so much junk food available to us. Our parents were not as affluent as most people are these days, and couldn’t afford to buy junk food anyway. About once a month our treat was fish and chips, and we were happy because we didn’t know any better.
Just think of the medical costs in the years to come when dealing with obesity. It doesn’t just affect the obese person, it affects the whole of society and we’ll be the ones to pay for it in the future.
We have to start educating kids from an early age how to be fit and healthy so that future generations won’t end up facing the same health problems we have today.
Spring Has Sprung…Time To Get Fit and Healthy!

Now that Spring is here in Australia, it’s time to get fit and healthy for Summer. It’s time to get rid of those few extra kilos put on over Winter and start the Fit Yummy Mummy Program.
We spend our Winter months eating comfort foods like curries and casseroles, so as a result it’s only natural that we put on extra weight. I don’t know about you, but I always feel a bit "stodgy" once Winter is over and can’t wait to eat lots of salads again.
It’s also the time to exercise and tone our bodies up once again. I’m not one for going out much in the Winter to exercise. For a start I don’t like cold weather and I like staying in my bed where it’s cosy and warm! I live in Queensland which has a very temperate climate, but I still feel the cold even though it’s a whole lot warmer than in the south of the country.
Motivating yourself to get out and exercise can be very hard for some people, myself included. I’m either extremely busy or can’t be bothered. Do you know someone like that? With the Fit Yummy Mummy Program, you don’t even have to leave your house. You can sign up for the FREE eCourse by clicking HERE.
If you’re happy with the eCourse and you’d like to purchase the complete program, one of the bonuses is an excellent meal planner, which is full of delicious, nutritious recipes, and will help you shed the kilos.
You can’t be fit and healthy without a diet and exercise program, and the beauty of the Fit Yummy Mummy Program is that it can all be done in your own home. Just think, no more gym fees and you get to eat delicious, nutritious meals everyday.

Healthy Meal Plan

Implementing a nutrition plan does not have to be tedious! The Fit Yummy Mummy System is all about making better choices and evaluating how you take care of yourself on a daily basis. Not only will these choices boost your metabolism, eliminate cravings, burn more fat and increase your energy dramatically, but you’ll also learn how to start living successfully, each and every day.
Energy is found in the food we eat. The amount of energy food has is measured in calories. Calories come from proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Calories FUEL our body. Not only does your body need all three nutrients for growth, metabolism and other vital body functions, the quality of these nutrients contribute to satiety and the amount of calories that you burn.
Processed foods generally provide too many calories and too much sugar, rapidly increasing/decreasing blood sugar, resulting in hunger and fatigue. A healthy meal plan consists of whole natural foods, which pack more nutrients, are higher in fiber, and leave you feeling energized and satisfied and force the body to work harder to use them as energy. Thus you burn more calories, lose more fat.
There are 3 categories with a list of the most nutrient rich foods. The "quick start" action plan is to choose a serving from each of the 3 categories as you plan each meal. Make an effort to choose
fresh over frozen whenever possible. When in doubt go with the 2P’s: Protein and Produce. These 2 food categories alone are all you need to give you the most nutrients and lowest calories. Fill your plate with 1 part protein and 3 parts produce. Or you may use the "two-thirds, one-third rule" vegetables/fruits and whole grains should visually occupy about two-thirds of a 9-inch plate and a quality protein the remaining one-third. This is a small snapshot of a healthy meal plan.
The Fit Yummy Mummy Guide to Fast & Easy Meals is a bonus you receive when you purchase the Fit Yummy Mummy Program. The fastest way to lose weight and lead a healthy lifestyle in the comfort of your own home, is by implementing a healthy diet and exercise program. Click HERE to get started right now!

Now, before we begin, I need to make sure we are clear on this up front….THERE ARE NO SHORT CUTS when it comes to Losing Body Fat! There is nothing you can "skip over" to save more time or get to the end result faster.
What you NEED to Know to go from Frazzled and Frumpy to Fit and Yummy.
- Each pound of fat equals 3500 calories. To Lose 1lb. of Fat you must create a deficit of 3500 calories. (500 calories less a day so in 1 week you’ll lose 1 pound of fat)
- Healthy fat loss is about 1-2 pounds of body fat each week
- Eating 500 less calories a day is much easier than burning off 500 calories a day.
- Dieting without exercise is a dead end. Starving yourself to lose 1 to 2 pounds each week will bring your metabolism to a screeching halt, increase stress, craving and mood swings.
- Eating supportive foods every 3 to 4 hours burns more calories and creates a healthy, thriving metabolism.
- Short Burst Exercise not only boosts your metabolism and burns more fat, it is energizing and is the only way to Re-Shape your "Mommy Body"
- Both Nutrition and Exercise are Vital to Boosting your Metabolism to meet and exceed your fat loss goals

Being Healthy, Wealthy and Happy!

Being a healthy functioning person can actually change the way you think, and can open up your mind to possibilities you’d never thought of previously. It can bring happiness you’ve never felt before, and bring abundance into your life. Once your mind is clear and you’re able think about what you really want, then your imagination takes over. "First comes thought; then organization of that thought, into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination".…Napoleon Hill, "Think and Grow Rich" We all need a plan of where we’re going and it all starts with a thought. You wouldn’t plan a road journey without a map, so why would you set out to achieve a goal without a plan in place. "Understand that "images" are mental pictures that are made from thoughts, and the magnificence of the mind lies in the fact that it can "think". That is to say, it can tap into thought and create whatever image it chooses. Everything we do is preceded by an image. We think first in order to form an image, then we do the work"…Bob Proctor, "You Were Born Rich" Bob Proctor is my mentor and his writings are a result of many years researching the greatest philosophers of our time eg. Napoleon Hill, Dale Carnegie, Wallace D Wattles, to name a few. To find out more about Bob and his teachings, click HERE.
