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 extra kilos 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 bone mass 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 skipping breakfast 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.

Are you concerned about your husband’s weight?  At least once a week a concerned wife contacts me about helping her husband to lose weight.  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 exercise with him.  Sneak in exercise 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 diet 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 healthy snack like a Herbalife Protein Bar.

“I have tried everything, every diet, but I can’t keep the weight off.”
“I feel uncomfortable in my body and want to lose weight.”
 “I want to lose weight fast, do you have a solution?”
“I need to lose 10kg in a month for a special function.”
“I can’t seem to get rid of the pregnancy weight.”
“I need to do something about my weight, my health and cholesterol is out of control.”

These are some actual statements from clients that have contacted me in the last week for help with their diet.  I am sure these are not isolated cases – and as you are reading this, you might be able to associate very strongly with one or more of these statements.  Maybe you also know the frustration and helplessness associated with the feeling of struggling to lose weight.

You know where you want to be.  I guess you can even imagine yourself at your target weight and fitting into that favourite pair of jeans that fitted you 5 dress sizes ago.  And you have decided to make a change in your lifestyle and diet to slim down.

Here are some of the other statements I have received in the last week, all from clients who are successfully enjoying the programme:

“I started this week and have already lost 2 kg!”
“My wedding dress fits and I look great!”
“I feel wonderful and my cholesterol levels are under control.”
“The shakes are delicious and the kilograms are falling off.”
“I have so much more energy and have lost 1.5kg this week!”

Would you like to feel you can associate with these statements as well?  All these clients are using Herbalife products, specifically suggested to them by Marieta, their Wellness Coach.  They are on the Herbalife weight loss eating plan that involves replacing two meals a day with a Herbalife shake, and enjoying supplements to help burn fat (including the famous ‘Herbalife tea’ = the Thermojetics Herbal Beverage).

If you’d like to join them, contact me to discuss your specific product and weight loss needs.  I will help you get started on your journey to lose weight fast and keep the weight off. Delivery of Herbalife products within 24h with free delivery (certain terms and conditions apply).

Losing weight is as much about engaging your mind and emotions as it is about feeding and exercising your body.  Think about it – what are the greatest obstacles to your weight loss program?  You don’t feel like getting up to exercise?  That’s your emotions speaking, not your body.  Your thinking is you’ll do it later?  That’s your mind, not your body!

If you gave your body exactly what it wanted and liked and feels great with; it would most likely be a healthy diet and exercise.  I don’t think our bodies enjoy fighting the cholesterol, poor circulation, fat, fatigue, etc.  If your body had a wish list, I am sure it would be to be healthy and in optimum condition.

So why would weight loss be so difficult then?  This is probably because most of us are more tuned into the needs of our thoughts and emotions than that of our bodies.  Even more so if you are an emotional eater who seeks comfort in food – food that your body duly digest and processes.

The key thus lies in engaging your body, emotions and mind in your weight loss process.  Engage your mind by researching the best way to lose weight, prepare a plan, set goals that you want to achieve.  Engage your emotions by visualising the end result of your weight loss process; choose a song that just keeps you motivated and energised, write small motivations and put it in your greatest areas of temptations.

With this process in place, you will help your body reach its optimum health!  Remember, it is all about choices.  You have the power to choose – also your thoughts and emotions.

The Herbalife weight control program offers you nutrition to help you lose weight, gain weight or maintain your weight.  Your body will love it as it contains a five-course meal in a tasty diet shake.  Your mind will be blown by the nutritional benefits and you will have emotions of energy when you use the products.

Wondering where you can find Herbalife stores?  Herbalife is only sold through Independent Distributors like me.
