5 Tips on Choosing High Fiber Foods

Hello Again,

I hope everyone had a great week and you’re ready for the weekend. I know I am.

This week I was in a discussion with a client and she asked a great question about how to get more fiber into her diet. So I gave her 5 tips for choosing high fiber foods. I thought it was a great topic for discussion.

 

1. Eat the Fruit instead of Drinking it. Eating apples and oranges deliver a lot more fiber and a lot fewer calories than drinkingFRUITS AND JUICES them as a juice.

2. Infuse your breakfast with some Fruit. Start your day by adding Fruit to your normal breakfast. Eat what you normally would; but just add fruits like berries, and melon to get those refreshing fibrous nutrients.

INGREDIENT LABEL3. Read Labels. When choosing fiber-filled foods start by checking the ingredients to ensure the first ingredient listed is some type of whole grain (ex. Whole oats).  After checking the ingredients take a look at the amount of fiber you would be getting per serving, if you’re not getting at least 3 grams of fiber from things like bread or cereal, then it’s time to change to a new brand that does.

4. Eat Beans.  So what if you will be sleeping on the couch for a few nights.  Beans are a great source of fiber, carbohydrate and proteins.  What other food can say that?  They have a few more benefits for you: they arebeans photo cheap, easy to find, and every stores carries them. They are also very versatile when it comes to adding them to different dishes.

5. Try something new.  Try new recipes that use whole grains, like whole wheat pasta or a new dish with beans. Be adventurous.

There you have it 5 easy tips to put more fiber into your diet. Give them a try, they not only work they taste good too. Fiber is an important part of your daily diet, don’t forget it.

Have a great weekend. 

Until next time, Stay Fit You’ll Feel Better.

5 Tips For Stocking Your Fat Loss Kitchen

Eating for Fat Loss starts in the kitchen, it does not matter if it’s in your home, a restaurant, a dining hall or any place else.  To get the most out of any Fat Loss Program, keep your kitchen stocked with items found in our SFS Nutritional Program.

PRODUCE HEART PHOTO1. Produce- I like to choose locally grown vegetables and fruits whenever I can, but that is a personal choice.  As an Italian I  keep garlic on hand at all times.  I also keep other produce items like onions, romaine lettuce, plenty of spinach, broccoli, cucumbers, carrots, bananas and apples.  When you are trying to make your selections in the produce aisle, there are two things to look for: first whether the item looks good or not (try to get the best looking produce you can find) and secondly look for what ever might be on sale, sale items are great to stock up on.  It is okay to try to be frugule and lose Fat at the same time.

2. Grains - It’s now time to get rid of  your white rice and replace it with brown rice.  This is the hardest one for me; however I gaveRICE PLATE PHOTO up my white sandwich bread for whole wheat bread , and although for me it will never be as tasty, it is alot better for me.  Another great option is to switch to whole wheat pasta, there is absolutely no difference in flavor, but there’s a huge difference in the health benefits for you.

ROASTED CHICKEN PHOTO3. Protein – Fill you fat loss kitchen with great protein sources like fresh fish, chicken, eggs, turkey and many different types of beans.  I recommend eating a protein source at every feeding , it helps  maintain a more consistent insulin level and you feel full, which helps too.

4.  Fats and Oils - Good choices for these oils are canola, soybean, peanut and the best in my opinion olive oil.  Important note about storing olive oil, keep it in the dark room temperature location.  There are two thingsOLIVE OIL that kill olive oils, sun light, and oxygen.  So keep it in the back of your cupboard.   Another great source of a health fat is Avocado, mash it up and put on top of a salad.  It makes a great source of heart-healty monounsaturated fat.

5.   Other must Haves - Learn what my chef friend has told me for a long time: a small amount of a high-quality HERBS AND SPICES PHOTOingredient goes a long way in boosting flavor.  So make sure your Fat Loss kitchen has a good-quality tomato sauce ( if you don’t have one let me know and I will give you my mothers Italian recipe), balsamic vinegar and freshly grated parmesan.  You should also have a wide range of quality herbs and spices. 

 Well there you have it my top 5 tips regarding what you should have in your kitchen when you are attempting to lose fat.  The truth is when you get used to stocking your cupboard with these items you’ll learn to love them.  They have a great flavor and are great for you.  Remember to successfully lose Fat you need to make a lifestyle change, and it starts with what’s in your kitchen and what you put into your body.  You can do it, I know you can.  If you have trouble let me know, I’m here to help.

Until next time, Stay Fit You’ll Feel Better.

5 Fat Loss Tips to a Trim and Sexy Body

These 5 Fat Loss Tips to a Trim and Sexy Body are for any of you who have ever looked in the mirror and didn’t think that theyWOMAN STRETCHING looked great. Now I know that from time to time, you may not think that a particular outfit looks great; but if everytime you look in the mirror you don’t like what you see, then this article is for you. I am going to lay out 5 of my easiest fat loss tips to get you moving in the right direction, build your confidence, and move you one step closer to that smokin sexy body you want.

1. Avoid processed food - However here is the kicker, you already know that you should not be eating processed foods. So stop eating them, and start eating more natural foods:
vegetables, lean proteins and even some good fats.

WOMAN DRINKING WATER2. Drink plenty of water - This is the easiest way to lose excess fat.  Our bodies are made up of about 80% water, so this is a great place to start. By increasing your water intake to about 72 ounces a day, your muscles will be properly hydrated allowing you to not only feel better; but to also be more active and to excercise more.  This increased activity in turn causes an increase in your metabolism, and this helps you burn excess fat.

3. Eat 5 times a day - By eating 5 times a day your body begins to recognize that it’s going to be fed more often and it remembers the timing of each feedings.   This simple act will enable your body to burn the nutrients that you are putting into your body immediately, instead of storing the nutrients as fat as  it would do if you are only eating once or twice a day.  By storing your food intake as fat your body guarentees that it will have reserves for later just incase you dont eat again.  Eating 5 times a day eliminates that problem, and your body will no longer store each meal, it will burn itl

4.Take your time when you eat - It takes roughly 20 minutes for the stomach to tell the brain that it is full. So no matter how much food you eat in that 20 minutes you will not feel full until that signal is sent to the brain. By eating slower you will have a chance to enjoy your food and you will eat less.

5. Exercise - You had to know that this was going to make the list, there is no other way around it you are going to need to exercise WOMAN AND MAN STRETCHINGand build muscle. Yes, ladies I said build muscle; and I know what you are saying right now, “I do not want to get big and bulky.” I am going to let you in on a little secret, if building a lot of muscle and getting huge was so easy to do, then every guy would look like a Greek god.  To be honest it is extremely difficult to get big and bulky, so dont worry about it. Start your exercise program with an activity that you enjoy doing, and then start to incorporate more activities as you become more comfortable with the idea of exercising.

Well there you have it.   If you start to incorporate these 5 fat loss tips into your life, I guarentee that you will be taking one step closer to your goal of the smoking hot body that you’ve always dreamed of.

Fat Loss Vs Weight Loss, Are They The Same Thing?

There is a very bad misconception in the world that fat loss and weight loss are the same thing.   I am here to show you that they are definitely not the same thing.  I am especially speaking to the Women out there reading this article, please pay close attention to what is said in this article.

FAT LOSS PHOTO 1Take a look around the internet, local book stores, or watch any of those late night infomercials.  You will see a ton of books and programs with the words “weight loss” in the title.  The over use of this term should be a big red flag; what you are really looking for is “fat loss”.  As a top strength and conditioning coach and fat loss expert, I am only concerned that my clients lose excess fat.

Let’s start by understanding what makes up our weight.  Our body’s weight consists of bones, organs, tissue, fat, blood, and water.  As you can see some of what makes up our total weight is critical to our survival. 

I believe it’s key that you start to develop a new way of looking at Fat Loss.  It is easy to think that Fat is bad, but actually fat is an FAT LOSS ADimportant element in our dietary program.  Without fat in our diet muscle development would not happen, our joints would hurt and many other unpleasant things would start to occur; so why does everyone try to cut all fats from their diet?  I think it’s due to a lack of knowledge.  The fitness industry is always trying to get the consumer to buy the next great weight loss or fitness gimmick, and then they are off to the next new great thing to repeat the cycle.  It’s confusing, and I understand that.

To make it simple, focus not on total fat loss but only on the excessive body fat that we are carrying on our body.  Excess body fat is one of our biggest health problems in our country today.  Why is it one of our biggest health problems, because having excess body fat increases your chances for things like diabetes, stroke, hypertension, heart attacks and many other potentially fatal diseases.  In plain English too much fat is a really bad thing, that’s why I want you to be more focused on losing excess fat.

Here’s the reason I think that we started calling it weight loss, because no one wanted to admit that they were fat.  Instead of saying “I am on a fat loss program”, they said “I am on a weight loss program.”  Why, because it sounds better.  So take a stand and take responsibility for losing the fat, once you do that it’s easier to become highly motivated, and the job will get done more efficiently.

I believe the most effective, efficient, and healthy way to lose the excess fat is by eating a balanced, plant based diet of whole FOOD PHOTO 1naturally fresh foods, in conjunction with any exercise program.  I strongly recommend to my clients to stay away from all of those highly advertised weight loss (see the word weight loss, not what you are looking for) programs.  Unfortunately, weight loss is a big business, and these weight loss companies know that the person’s will is going to weaken at some point, so they continue try to appear to provide the “magic weight loss solution”.

FAT LOSS PHOTO 3That is the difference between fat loss and weight loss, and the difference between the approach I recommend and all the books and programs touting weight loss.  If you really want to lose fat forever, then you need to make the lifestyle changes that I mentioned.  If you eat well, make exercise a daily activity, you will begin to see the excess fat melt right off your body.

I hope this article helped.  If you have any questions, thoughts, or ideas about what you’ve just read please let me know.  I enjoy hearing from you.

Till next time, remember Stay Fit You’ll Feel Better.

Fitness Strategies To Achieve Your Optimal Weight

man-and-woman-workout-on-beach

If you are reading this then it is no surprise to you that it’s easy to gain weight, just look at the fitness levels of our society.  So what do you do if you want or need to lose weight? Here are some Fitness Strategies to help you reach and maintain your Optimal weight.

 Set Goals that are realistic – when coming up with these goals make them attainable. For example, don’t set an expectation to look like the latest top cover model and say that is the weight that I want.  If you setting goals like that you are setting yourself up for failure right off the bat, give yourself a chance.  A tip that I use for my clients is to shoot for a 5-10% weight loss in 3 months.  The great thing about this technique is that once you attain that fitness milestone, you can do it again and again.

Be consistent with your weight loss – This is the number one Fitness Strategy that most weight loss individuals break, they want it yesterday and as a Fitness Professional I want to give it to them yesterday, but you can’t.  So be consistent, weight loss is not a sprint it is a marathon and we want you to be there at the end, not tucker out in the first mile.  You should target only 1-2 pounds of weight loss a week.   That means you may only be losing 4-8 pounds in a month.  If you are losing more than this you might be losing muscle; and that is definitely not what we want.  So relax and control your enthusiasm, just make sure you are there at the end.

group-on-beach-exercising1Be More Active – I know this is a no brainer, but you would be surprised by how many people I see that ask me for help losing weight, and they are not moving or active at all.  There are many ways to increase the amount of activity in your day.  Start by planning exercise in to your schedule by making it an appointment for yourself.  Another way is start walking for 30 minutes or ride a bike for the same time.  All of these fitness activities are burning calories, increasing your metabolism, and helping you to lose weight.

 Keep a Journal – this is one of my favorite pieces of advice.  Write down what you eat each day; and you will really see what you are putting in your body.  Wow can it be shocking.  For some reason when you write it down it truly becomes real.  This helps you to clearly see what you eat.   I can not believe that this is not done by everyone who wants to lose weight.  By writing your food / drink intake in a journal you will be able to see not only what you are eating, when you are eating, how much you are eating but also what are some pitfalls that will cause you to make some bad decisions regarding food.  Once you begin to see some of these pitfalls, you then can safe guard yourself from them.

 Stabilize your Blood Sugars – try to choose more foods like fruits, vegetables and whole grains.  These foods havevegetables-photo a lower glycemic index, which basically means that they will not cause your blood sugar to increase as something that has a higher glycemic index.  The rollercoaster affect of blood sugars have been shown to be associated with the steady increase in weight gain in society today.

 Prepare your own meals – this is not only a way to drop those unwanted pounds but also a way to put a little money back into your pocket (it’s a win, win proposition).  I know that we are all busy, but stay away from those fast food options.  Plan your meal in advance, pick one or two nights in a week and cook all your meals for that week.  Now no matter how busy you are you already have a healthy meal option at home that just needs to be heated.

 Drink water – here is one that everyone should be doing; but I think that it’s so important that it needs to be said anyway.  Here is a simple tip, if you reduce your calories by 100 a day which is less than a soda, at the end of one year you would have lost 10 pounds.  Not bad, besides your body needs water to help cleanse your system.   So the next time you’re thirsty, reach for a glass of water, your system and your waist line will appreciate it.

 Bottom line losing weight is not this big mountain that you can’t get over, it’s just several small adjustment followed consistently over time that will produce the fitness levels and body that you desire.  You can do it.  It just take desire to reach you goal. 

fit-for-life-photoRemember you goal is to lose weight and to be fit for life.  There is no rush.  Take it day by day, step by step; and you will be the person you want to be.  If you have any questions or comments contact me.  I’d love to hear from you.

Got Fiber, Does Fiber Increase Fat Loss?

Increased Fiber consumptions has become the latest, greatest way to drop those unwanted pounds in the Fat Loss world .  There have even been scientific studies done that have concluded that people who eat more fiber in their diets seem to be less over weight, and that’s true;  but Breakfastby no means is it a cure.  Not only have the scientists jumped on this but so to have the supplement and food companies, who have stated that  increasing fiber in your diet is the easiest way to drop those pounds and not be hungry.  What I finding interesting about the companies who make these statements is that they also (in very small print) state that the FDA has not evaluated their statements.  So what is the answer?  Will adding more fiber in my diet be a step toward faster Fat loss?  If it is, how much fiber do I need to eat and where should it come from?

 

Well I hope to shed a little light on both of those questions.   I cannot promise to completely answer both questions; but I will give you more information on them.  So here I go, there is a lot of evidence that supports the idea that  inreased fiber consumption helps decrease weight gain.  Throughout my research it appears that those who are of normal weight seem to eat between 22-27 grams of fiber per day.   This amount of fiber is what an average women is supposed to eat, while men are supposed to eat  between 30-38 grams per day.  The average US adult eats only 15 grams of fiber a day.  I am not going to bore you with the studies and statistics; but what has been found is that increasing the amount of fiber in your diet will not definitively make you lose weight.   It might however help, because it helps you feel full longer, which might help to prevent over eating.

 

But what should I eat and where should it come from?  That is a great question, I recommend eating natural foods as compared to supplements.  Food is much more cost effective, and I believe the body is haricot heartable to use it better due to its natural state.  However if fresh fiber sources are not possible in your diet, then a fiber supplement will work almost as well.  For foods that supply fiber, look towards vegetables, beans, whole grains and fruits.  

 

Fiber helps by making you feel full. Through all of my research I found that fiber foods and fiber supplements only help you maintain your weight.  They do not aid in Fat Loss. 

 

To realize the best Fat loss program you should: eat a balanced diet containing 20-27 (women) and 30-38 (men) grams of fiber, workout regularly using an effective fat loss exercise program, and simply burn more calories than you take in.  That approach time and time again comes out to be the formula for success.  I know that everyone is looking for the next quick fix with the least amount of effort / time but it just is not out there.  It takes hard work.  So based on the evidence that I seen in my research, Fiber will not by itself help you lose weight.

Well there’s my take on the fiber and weight loss.  If you have questions or thoughts on this topic, please contact me.   I’d love to hear from you.  For more fat loss and fitness information go to my website Sports Fitness Solutions.  Till next time.

Fat Loss: The 9 Steps to Successful Fat Loss Part 2

Welcome back to Part 2 of “The 9 Steps To Successful Fat Loss.”  I hope you enjoyed        part one, and are ready to learn about the final 4 steps.  So lets get started,  and look at step 6.

6. Keep a list of Nonfood Activities – When you are bored, tired or stressed, you need to have strategies in mind  that have nothing to do with eating;  and that can get you through these tough times.  For me, when these feeling arise I will do some calf raises, pushups or if  time and space permit a small  circuit workout to get my mind and body in the proper alignment.  When you “over eat” becasuse you are stressed, you are only trying to be nice to yourself.  Food alters the brain chemistry and may put you in a happier mood – for the moment that is.  When you come to your senses you normally become more stressed and more depressed because you know you should not have eaten so much.   So really the short term good feeling, really makes you feel  worse in the long run.  Learning how to deal with the rigors of life without food is the obvious solution.

7. Make a Realistic Eating Plan – This is critical to your fat loss success.  Too many times people who want to start a Fat loss program tell me how they are only going to eat  the cleanest foods and how they are going to follow the  strictest of diets.  After hearing this, I generally  ask them if they are going to follow this plan  for the rest of their lives; and almost always  they say NO.  So why start it now!  It’s far better to  find a nutritional plan that will help you achieve your goal and that you can continue for the rest of your life.    It’s  the only way to insure  that you can win the battle of the bulge.

8. Schedule Appointments for Exercise – The best thing for the busy working person  is to schedule a specific  workout time.  By scheduling your workout time you have less excuse for not getting it in during your day.  Here is another great tip that works, invite a friend to workout with you.   Now you have additional reason to make it the workout, you don’t want to let your partner down by not showing.  It’s  built in accountability.

9. Think fit and Healthy – This is a point that I don’t hear talked about very often, but is so important to your success.    Everyday when you wake up visualize yourself being fitter and becoming more lean.  The mental imaging will start your day with a positive attitude.  If you tell yourself that you are eating healthy and you will be successful with your Fat Loss Program,  you will realize your goal  more easily.  Positive Mental Attitude is key to your well-being, and the success of your weight loss program.

Listen to what one of my clients has to say about these 9 steps.  “Hi my names is Dave.  Not long ago I had a serious medical problem and I had to lose weight and change my lifestyle.  With the help of Jeff I followed this 9 step approach and lost 55 pounds.  I not only lost the weight; but I have kept it off for more than 4 years.  It’s never coming back.    Was it easy?  Hell no!  However today I have more strength and  stamina than guys half my age; and I feel great.”

Well there it is, 9 Steps To Successful Fat Loss.   I know these 9 steps work.   I hope you enjoyed what you read, and put this program  into practice.   If you do, I know you will be successful.  Let me know what you think.  Please post your comments, I love to hear what you have to say.  If you want more information on fitness, check out my newsletter for even more great tips.  Till next time

Fat Loss – The 9 Steps To Successful Fat Loss Part 1

Deciding to get in shape and begin a Fat Loss Program is great, however  there a few critical steps that must be followed in order to maximize your Fat Loss Potential.  Here are the Nine Steps To Successful Fat Loss:

1) Write It Down- Record everything that you put into your body, both food and liquids.  The more specific you are the more information you will get out of it.  You should include the time of the meal, and roughly how much you ate ( you don’t have to weigh the food but you can if you want to be more detailed).  Another very helpful tip in writing it down what you eat, is to also include how you are feeling when you eat.  For example: happy, sad or down.  This will help you identify what type of eater you maybe, for example, one of my clients that realized that she was an emotional eater.  When she became stressed or upset, she would turn to food as her comfort, instead of finding a healthier outlet.  So food became her drug of choice.  Once we found this out she began to exercise when things went wrong.   It had a significant impact on the success of her Fat Loss journey.

2) Watch When You Consume Your Calories- We Americans seem to really back load our calories with dinner being our biggest meal, while  many Europeans will have lunch as their largest meal.  I feel that a balance or equally distribution of calories through out the day is the best formula for Fat Loss.  For example, if you are going to eat a daily intake of 2,000 calories, the most effective approach would be to have 5 meals consisting of 400 calories each time.  This will also stabilize your blood sugar / insulin levels which too will aid in your Fat Loss journey

3) Eat Slowly – There seems to be a connection with overweight individuals and eating very quickly.   The brain needs 20 minutes to receive the signal that you have eaten enough and you are full.  No matter how much food you consume during those 20 minutes, the satiety signal does not  come any sooner.  Here is a great tip, if you go out to eat order a healthy soup as an appetizer, it will take time to cool which will increase the amount of time it will take you to eat cutting in to that 20 minute barrier and getting you  closer to your Fat Loss goal.

4) Make Lifestyle Changes- I know a lot of fat loss hopefuls that will stop eating or drinking  anything that is not good for them as soon as they start their fat loss program.  You would think this is a good idea right.  Well kind of.  For example,  I have not seen too many fat loss hopefuls stop drinking soda  completely cold turykey after drinking 21 to 24 in a week for years.  This cold turkey approach just does not seem to be something that they can sustain, they will fall off the “wagon” and allow the “wagon” to continue on by.  So make a gradual  lifestyle changes.   In this case I  generally recommend my Fat Loss clients to gradually phase soda out.  I have found that this approach has a much higher success rate for the Fat Loss client to achieve long term change.

5) Avoid Temptation- This is one of the most important and also one of the toughest adjustments to make.  Out of sight,out of mind and most importantly out of your mouth.  Anyone starting a fat loss program should go through their pantry and refrigerator, clean it out of all the foods that are not found in their fat loss eating program.  This is why I say out of site out of your mouth, if it is not there  you can’t eat it.  Another tip is when you are grocery shopping try to stay on the petimeter of the store.   In most grocery store designs the food on the outside of the store are  generally the foods that you would find on a  fat loss eating program list.  This will also ensure that you will not  go down the isles full  of those tempting foods.

Stay tuned for  Part 2 of the 9 Steps to Successful Fat Loss.    Part 2 will be on my next post; and tell some else if you think that this may help them on their Fat Loss Journey.

Fitness Fridays

Hey everyone, I so glad that today is Friday, I have had an amazing week but I am looking forward to this weekend and now it is just right around the corner.   I have a lot of members contact me and tell me that they are having a lot of difficultly getting their fitness workouts in on Fridays, for what ever the reason, so since today is Friday, I will discuss some techniques that have worked great for me and my clients and also the Fitness program that I used today myself.

Well the best advice I can give someone about getting the fitness workouts in on Fridays is to first and fore most, Schedule it.  Make your workout an appointment and invite a friend if at all possible.  You will be much more likely to show up even if you do not feel like going because you know that the other person is going to be there.  I KNOW you would not want to leave the person that you invited hanging by themselves – Guilt works great for this, so I will play on it.  On Fridays, I know that you are probably tired and need a rest, but if you really feel bad do this start to workout and give your self 20 minutes.  If you still feel terrible after those 20 minutes, then go home, but most times you will be into your workout and want to have a great one al the way the end.  Just another little trick to help you stay consistent with your Fitness workout program.

Well as everyone knows I am a HUGE believer in a healthy lifestyle, so I am calling this lifestyle the SFS lifestyle and I am going to live that lifestyle and post what I am doing on here as well as on Twitter.  If you are on twitter than follow me at jpaluseo I would love to chat with you.  So in doing so, I am going to tell you what my workout was this morning before my first fitness training client.

I started with a 20 minute bike interval session -30 seconds on ,1 min rest and I did this for twenty minutes.

Then I lifted my fitness program was
