thirty

Did you know your metabolism slows by 3% every decade?  May be you noticed that when you reached your thirties it wasn’t as easy to lose extra weight as it was when you were 20?  As you change from a 20-something into a time pressed mom, dad, career person, businessperson, business owner, etc, it takes its toll on your metabolism.  Here are a few tips to ensure your metabolism stays top notch and get rid of the tiredness and lethargy.

1. Become more active and follow a low fat diet
Most likely, you are less active now in your thirties than you were in your twenties.  I remember how starting a job greatly decreased my activity level, as suddenly I wasn’t walking to classes or doing sports anymore.  This usually results in stomach fat and general bulge around the midsection, and cholesterol creeping up.  Both of these factors increase the risk of heart disease and have been linked with various cancers.  Therefore, the earlier you can start to reinforce low-fat eating habits, the better.  The Herbalife weight control diet can help you to enjoy a low calorie, convenient diet and keep you slim.

2. More nutrients in your diet
You will need to keep your energy levels up, especially if you have young children.  The one thing you can’t skimp on is your health.  Put your and your family’s health first by preparing balanced meals, rather than just snacking on your kids leftovers or fast food.  Load up on nutrients – you will get the benefits later.  A good multivitamin like the Herbalife Multivitamin and Omega supplement like Herbalife Herbalifeline tablets are essential to ensure nutritional balance.  Women start to lose by 35, so you need to get calcium supplements and enjoy calcium rich foods.

3. Low calorie diet
As your metabolism drop by 3%, your daily calorie needs drop too.  That is why the chocolate éclair you could eat at 20 now takes a half and hour jog to burn!

4. Healthy breakfast
The one thing you can do today is to have a healthy breakfast.  No more and swap your buttered toast breakfast for a Herbalife Healthy Breakfast that will help you manage your energy through the day.  Enjoy a Herbalife shake in the mornings which provides great nutrition, energy and loads of vitamins and minerals to start your day off.

Help husband to lose weight
Are you concerned about your husband’s weight?  At least once a week a concerned wife contacts me about helping her husband to .  Often her concern is coupled with worries about his health, cholesterol and more.  This is a real concern for many women as they want to ensure the health and longevity of their family and do what is best for their husbands.

The easy answer to this concern is to get your husband’s buy-in to the process of weight loss.  Be careful not to criticise (this will only bring about resistance), but rather share your honest concerns and remind him what you love about him.  More than anything respect his decision and be willing to help. Even if you have his buy-in, it makes a world of difference if the wife supports the process by helping to prepare meals and ensuring the house is full of healthy snacks.  If you want your husband to lose weight, you will have to help.

Your aim needs to be to improve his metabolism, provide foods that give healthy and long-lasting energy, that is a good source of protein and that is enjoyable.  Here are a few things you will need to do:

1. Remove all junk food from the house.  Stock the fridge with healthy snacks like fruit sticks and smoothies.

2. Change the whole family’s eating pattern.  It definitely won’t work if your hubby has a plate full of steamed vegetables and the rest of you are having fried chicken and chips.  Rather all join in and make it a family effort.

3. Cook low fat, low carb food.  Be creative with seasoning the foods (start adding fresh herbs, cinnamon, etc) to ensure they are still tasty.  Don’t cook in oil.

4. Improve his fitness.  It can be very rewarding if you can with him.  Sneak in by doing fun things together, like going on a picnic and hike. Sex is also a great calorie burner – it burns about 500 calories, the equivalent of an hours worth of running!

5. Introduce healthier ways of living gradually.  This will help to make it a new sustainable lifestyle.

Herbalife products can help your family have healthier and nutritionally balanced eating patterns.  Replace breakfast and lunch with a delicious Herbalife shake and make it as a lunch pack for your husband with some fresh fruits.  This will help you to control his eating at work as well.  Make sure you add a like a Herbalife Protein Bar.
