Lose Your Tummy - Learn What and How to Eat for Fast Results
Happy New Year Ladies!
It's been a while since the last post but I'm back. One of the frustrating things about losing your tummy is that when it comes to seeing results, you have to be patient. Unfortunately, losing the weight takes more time and effort than putting it on. But there is hope as our resident lifestyle Mom, Holly Rigsby of FYM states the "5 Diet DO's for Fast Results":
1. DO Eat Breakfast every morning.
Eat a high fiber, high protein breakfast, feel energized, crush afternoon cravings and give your metabolism a kick start!
2. DO Eat every 3 to 4 hours
Eating often during the day gives your body the nutrients it needs to feel awake, energized, satisfied (so you are not fighting cravings) and keeps your metabolism humming.
3. DO Eat a Protein with Every Meal
Protein - chicken, fish, eggs, dairy, nuts, beans - not only gives your body the building blocks to create a faster metabolism, protein keeps you feeling full and satisfied.
4. Do Eat Produce with Every Meal
Produce - any and all fresh/frozen fruits and veggies. Eating one or both at every meal fills your body up with super nutrients with less calories. This is also the quickest way to flatten your tummy!
5. DO Drink Water
A commonly overlooked diet strategy. Getting fast results is more than just what you are eating, it is also what you are drinking. Not only will water keep you hydrated on ZERO calories, but will also crush cravings, eliminate headaches AND assist your metabolism to be running at top efficiency!
Give it a go. Try these Diet Do's for 3 days in a Row. Give yourself and your body a chance to lose your tummy and truly see and feel the benefits."

Lose your Tummy - Accountability
The "real" way to lose your tummy is to be accountable for your actions. It's then and only then, that you'll be able to survive the ups and downs and be the stronger mentally and physically for it. Here's what Holly Rigsby has to say about accountability:
"Many of us start off strong with our diet and exercise plan then life happens. We miss a workout or two, have one too many cheats, go on vacation, and all of a sudden we are back to square one - afraid to start again for fear it will only lead to the same frustration and disappointment.
So why is it when you make the best effort to take responsibility and try your best make positive changes to the way you eat and exercise that you always seem to fail miserably.
If you only have yourself to answer to each day and each week, who is there to lift you up, to encourage you to stay strong, to help you forgive yourself so you can stay on track when the going gets tough? Yet, many of us still insist that we can lose weight all on our own.
You have the choice to end this cycle of failure. If you are truly serious about gaining a healthy lifestyle and reaching your fitness goals, accountability is one of the most important aspects of taking responsibility."
