Why You Might Want to Think Twice Before You Trust Your Fitbit

Posted on June 16, 2017 by Evangeline Thomas

Do you trust your Fitbit so much that you base many of your weight loss choices on the readings it gives you? After learning about the results of yet another major study suggesting that these fitness trackers aren’t very accurate, you may find yourself changing your mind.

To start, it should be noted that the company behind the gadget does tell you that you can trust your Fitbit as a type of tool to give you overall guidance. That said, it does not suggest that it is 100 percent accurate, nor does it equate itself with the precision of medical tools. It is meant to provide you with some general feedback so you can better understand the trends in your activity and calorie intake. Continue reading →

Healthy Dinners for Less Than $5: Try These Valuable Recipes

Posted on May 23, 2017 by Evangeline Thomas

These days, it can feel like health foods and our wallets are at odds with each other. That said, it is possible to make healthy dinners for less than $5 that are also delicious and filling. The more of these meals you learn over time, the more you can save and afford to cook healthfully on a regular basis.

Keep in mind that healthy dinners for less than $5 aren’t all created equal. For instance, if they’re not filling, you will find yourself feeling hungry and you’ll only end up having to eat more. Eating more drives up the cost of the meal and negates the entire idea of the affordable meal. Similarly, if the meal you choose doesn’t taste very good then you won’t want to make it, which doesn’t save you anything. Continue reading →

How to Retrain Your Brain to Crave Healthy Foods

Posted on November 7, 2016 by Evangeline Thomas

Are you the type of person who deals with hunger cravings for unhealthy foods on a regular basis? Are those cravings getting in the way of your ability to lose weight and get in shape? Then check out the tips below, which are designed to help you retrain your brain so that you can crave healthy foods instead.

Get Rid of Unhealthy Foods in Your Home
If you are filling your kitchen cabinets and refrigerator with unhealthy foods and snacks, you will inevitably end up eating them. So one of the first ways to stop craving unhealthy foods is by clearing them out of your home so that you can drastically limit your exposure to them. You will end up eating healthier alternatives for your meals and snacks instead, and you will go without the unhealthy food for extended periods of time, allowing your body to start craving new yummy flavors that are good for you.

Take Healthy Snacks with You
Whether you are running errands or headed to the office, pack a few snacks in your bag so that you can always have something to munch on when cravings strike. Granola bars, nuts, fresh fruit, and other healthy options will help you feel full while teaching your taste buds and your brain to crave healthy foods throughout the day.

Add Some Foods Back In
Over the course of the first couple of weeks of retraining your brain, avoid having any and all of the unhealthy foods that you typically crave. However, after the first two weeks have passed, you can indulge in just 100 calories of one of those foods, but have it with other food in the middle of a meal. So, for example, eat a healthy meal but then have a piece of chocolate so that your brain will not associate the chocolate with feeling full and happy.

Find New Recipes with Healthy Ingredients
Sometimes all you have to do is find new, delicious ways to enjoy healthier ingredients in your meals throughout the day. So head out and purchase a few new recipe books or look up recipes online that will give you the chance to see just how yummy healthy foods can be.

By following this simple strategy, and taking a product like TrimThin X700, you can crave healthy foods for a change and ditch your addiction to the unhealthy foods that are inhibiting your weight loss goals.
