Then Don't Miss Out On Another Blog Post, You Can Start Getting Email Updates Delivered Right To Your Inbox. And Here Are 1. 2 Delicious HCG Recipes Just For Dropping By! This interview is part of what is now a plethora of weight loss success stories with real everyday women (and men! There’s a few dude interviews in there) who have used either h. CG injections or drops with the h. CG diet protocol to lose between 2. You can see the current episodes available here.——————————–I OFTEN get asked if the h. CG diet protocol is just for men or women with 5. If this approach can be used for those with only 1. You will see today, that while Debbie has in the past dealt with a heavier load of weight to lose, in recent years it’s just been that pesky 1. As you will see, the h. CG protocol CERTAINLY has done a great job of getting her where she wants. So basically, it works for us all whether you have 1. More to follow. One thing is for sure about Debbie, she isn’t dry! She feels like a friend when you watch her. Show Note Links: Bodyfat Testing: DEXA or DXA scan for body composition – scans your body, fully clothed (different than for bone density DEXA- you MUST specify- requires different calibration of machine to be accurate – hear my personal story on that lol in the interview when it’s not calibrated right #almostfainted #gladitwaswrong)Hydrostatic Bodyfat Test – done in water. Bodpod – uses air displacement. You can google “your area” + “dexa scan” or “hydrostatic body fat test” or “bodpod” to find a location in your area that does these sorts of tests. Cost is typically between $4. Bodpod is the cheapest, Hydrostatic is mid- range (I can mine as a pack of 3 tests to be used whenever I want for $1. DEXA is the pricier but much more specific kind. A Note About “Bodyfat Percent” on Home Scales. I would not trust these. They are frequently inaccurate. I’d like to give you a real example of this below, at the end of Debbie’s story. Debbie’s Experience with: the P3to. Life Program During Phase 3 of the h. CG Protocol. QUICK NOTE: If you’re like uh. Women are doing swimmingly well on it! Honestly even better than I could have hoped for. It’s not a list of foods or tips for doing well. It’s fully structured and you can just follow it to the letter if you like or tweak it to fit your life, but the point is! No more guessing or wondering or having a million decisions to make about what you should make or eat or add when. Let’s hear Debbie’s experience. If you were to explain to an h. CGer in just a few sentences why the P3tolife program for Phase 3 of the h. CG Diet Protocol has been valuable to you, what would you tell them? The P3tolife program offers structure rather than the ambiguous “no sugar/no starch” guideline. I also like that it provides guidance for the amount of calories and the macronutrient breakdown week by week so that, when followed, you gradually ease into increasing calories and fat. I really like the flexibility of the various meal plan options. I also appreciated all of the coaching videos with helpful information. How did you end up following the program – did you do the original plan, the simplified, or build your own meal plan or just tweaks to one of these? Can you give a few details of how you utilized the program and tailored it to yourself and your circumstances? At first I thought that I would use the build your own meal program, but I wound up really sticking pretty close to the original plan! I did adjust the days on which I would prepare certain meals but would stay with the items for the week. The one exception I made for the duration of the program was to have a Rocket Fuel Latte (Leanne Vogel of Healthful Pursuit recipe) every morning for breakfast in lieu of what was on the meal plan. The calories and macros were similar so I was comfortable with that change. I actually really, really loved doing Phase 3 that way!! Can you share your results – how your weight has been, while following the P3 program? Sure! This is the most successful P3 I have ever had, so I am happy to share! My LIW (3/3. 1/1. I was 1. 30. 6 and 2. P3 (4/2. 3/1. 7) I am 1. So I lost weight and body fat!! As an example of the difference with this P3 as opposed to my last round in 2. That was quite a roller coaster!! With this current round, and following the P3to. Life program, my weight fluctuation was 1. How did you feel about the portion sizes of the P3 meals? I thought the portion sizes were very generous!! In fact, sometimes I felt like it was too much food! Lol! Can you share a little about your personal life- ie work full time/part time, kids or hubby or school? Would love to hear how you made the logistics work of cooking the program with whatever time constraints you deal with. I am a consultant, working through my own company. At home is just my hubby and myself. I was able to be very flexible with my schedule due to running my own business so I did not feel any time constraints, which was nice. The only challenging thing was that I would eat lunch late, therefore wanted to eat dinner later than my husband did. That was the only conflict. I did have to navigate one business trip that involved a couple of meals that I could not prepare myself. For the breakfast I just had coffee (per usual on HCG) and for lunch I just chose what would align with the protocol. It worked out okay thankfully! Have you struggled on past p. Oh my goodness! My failure in prior P3’s were the reason why I had to do 4 rounds of HCG to lose the same 2. Ugh! The problem was twofold. I fell back into my prior habit of eating clean Sunday through Thursday and then being way too loose with my eating over the weekend. Slowly but surely the weight crept back on, every single time. Let’s take a quick commercial break to be like,Wow, look at those guns Debbie!! She obviously works out. Having muscle that SHOWS is a combination of BOTH working out with weights to build the muscle in the first place, and losing enough fat for that muscle to show. And honestly, when someone is responsible enough to work hard to have muscles like that, she’s a person to listen to! Which you can do of course ? Have you learned anything new from the program? Yes, for sure!! Weight stability!! I really never experience a stable Phase 3 and absolutely zero steak (correction) days! It was so awesome! On top of the great feeling of stability, I also felt completely satisfied the whole time! Satiety was not an issue at all! One of the things I really appreciate also was that when I felt like I wanted a treat at the end of the night, the smoothie was right there at my fingertips to take the munchies edge off, while still being on plan! I also enjoyed how easy and delicious the recipes were! I actually cooked dinners! My hubby easily augmented his dinners with additional carbs! Now that’s saying a lot!! If I had to pick two, I would probably say the Lean and Hearty Turkey Chili from week one, the Chili Lime Shrimp with Miracle Noodles for week two, and the Fish Taco Bowl from week three. Any other closing thoughts that you want to share about your experience with the program, or that might help others considering whether or not to give it a try? I would say that anyone who struggles with the ambiguity of the “no sugar no starch” guideline would definitely benefit from the structure and information that this program offers. I also think that the way the calories and macros are structured to gradually increase is critical. It can be such a mystery as to how much to eat and what macro combo that it is nice to have it already established for you. You find yourself with a definitive plan and feeling completely satiated. It’s awesome. I would also advice to abstain from alcohol during the P3 of the h. CG protocol. Diagnosed with Hashimoto’s thyroid disease, but that may now be reduced to only hypothyroidism because I take a very low dose of thyroid medication. Height: 5’4. I went down to 1. P3! Note: I count my weight lost from my preload weight because I feel like the load weight is inflamed due to loading and not representative of my reality. How long have you currently been maintaining (or where are you currently at in your h. CG journey)? I have never successfully maintained until this last round. I finally did it!!! I have now successfully finished my P3 with the P3tolife program and will continue to maintain my loss using more of a Keto lifestyle going forward. Tell us how you came to be overweight and your struggles with that? I was a thin child, didn’t think much about weight or my body. By the time I was in HS I started noticing other girls thinking/talking about their bodies and I too started thinking perhaps mine was not okay. I was 1. 10 lbs and thought that I needed to go on a diet! By the time I graduated from HS I had started to eat more junk food and also overeat. I would seek opportunities where I could get my hands on junk food that we didn’t normally have in the house. That caused me to gain weight, resulting in weighing 1. I graduated HS. I was pear shaped, carrying my weight in my hips, butt and thighs. Both family members and friends definitely teased me. I remember that some of my friends gave me a t- shirt that said, “thunder thighs”. I laughed along, but it did hurt. When I would be proud of losing 5 lbs, my Dad would mock me by saying “turn around. I succeeded. By September I was down to 1. But it still wasn’t enough, as I kept feeling like I still needed to lose weight and was very afraid of gaining back what I had already lost. Soon thereafter I met and started dating a man who would wind up being my fianc. He would tell me that if I ever got fat, he’d have a hard time loving me. It was not with malintention. I was thin, but I was incredibly unhealthy both physically and emotionally. Eventually I wound up breaking up with my fianc. I really struggled with accepting my body and knowing how to eat in moderation. It was always an extreme. Eventually my weight climbed to 1. I remained for the majority of the decade of my 2. I was miserable. I felt uncomfortable, insecure, and unattractive. I definitely suffered under comments from friends, boyfriends, and family.

A low glycemic index diet can be particularly effective for people with diabetes if portion control is also applied to those foods with higher carbohydrate content. What is the glycemic index and why does it matter? You've got questions. We've got answers in our complete guide to the glycemic index. Glycemic index of some common foods 1, 2; Fruits. Glycemic index. Glycemic index. Potato, baked (such as russet). The glycemic index is a great measure of how much a certain food will effect your insulin levels. We have put together a glycemic index food chart. What is a Food Pyramid? A food pyramid is a graphical pyramid shaped nutrition guide, divided into sections. Each section represents a specific food group and shows. Ital, also spelled I-tal (/ . It is compulsory in the Nyabinghi mansion though not in. While the Glycemic Index shows how quickly the carbohydrates will be converted to sugar, the Glycemic Load is a better indicator of how it will raise blood glucose. You often refer to the glycemic index. Can you please explain what it is and how to use it? GLYCEMIC INDEX, CARBOHYDRATE AND FAT from: "The Glucose Revolution" - by: J Brand-Miller PhD, T.M.S.Wolever MD,PhD, S Colagiuri MD, K Foster-Powell Mnutr.&Diet. Eating a Low Glycemic Diet. Introduction. Eating low- glycemic foods is one tool to help keep your diabetes under control. The glycemic index is a rating system for foods that contain carbohydrate. The basic principle of low glycemic index food pairing diet is that food can be classified into three types according to the chemicals required to digest them in your. It helps you know how quickly a food with carbohydrate raises blood sugar, so you can focus on eating foods that raise blood sugar slowly. Foods that raise blood sugar slowly have a low glycemic index. Most of the carbohydrate- rich foods that you eat with this plan should be low or medium on the glycemic index. Eating low- glycemic foods is most helpful when used along with another eating plan for diabetes, such as carbohydrate counting or the plate format. Counting carbs helps you know how much carbohydrate you're eating. The plate format helps you control portions and choose from a variety of foods. The glycemic index of a food can change depending on the variety of the food (for example, red potato or white potato), its ripeness, how it is prepared (for example, juiced, mashed, or ground), how it is cooked, and how long it is stored. People respond differently to the glycemic content of foods. And because many things affect the glycemic index, the only way to know for sure how a food affects your blood sugar is to check your blood sugar before and after you eat that food. High- glycemic foods are rarely eaten by themselves, so the glycemic index might not be helpful unless you're eating a food by itself. Eating foods together changes their glycemic index. Look at the overall nutrition in foods—and not just their glycemic index—when you plan meals. Some low- glycemic foods, such as ice cream, are high in saturated fat and should be eaten only now and then. Eating low- glycemic foods along with high- glycemic foods also can help keep your blood sugar from rising quickly. How do you follow a low- glycemic eating plan? How do you follow a low- glycemic eating plan? You don't have to deny yourself certain food groups or favorite dishes when you follow a low- glycemic eating plan. You focus on eating measured amounts of low- or medium- glycemic foods and trying to eat a balanced diet. Write down what you eat now. The first step is to look at the kinds of foods you're eating now. Write down(What is a PDF document?) the carbohydrate- rich foods you eat over several days. Then find the glycemic index of these foods. Foods in the index are given a number from 0 to 1. The higher the number, the higher the glycemic index. Foods are compared to glucose, which is sugar. It has a rank of 1. Foods that raise blood sugar quickly are high. They are rated 7. Foods that raise blood sugar moderately are medium. They are rated 5. Foods that raise blood sugar slowly are low. They are rated 5. Glycemic index of some common foods. Fruits. Glycemic index. Apples. Low. Oranges. Low. Watermelon. High. Vegetables. Glycemic index. Potato, baked (such as russet)High. Pumpkin. High. Sweet potato. Low. Dried and canned beans and legumes. Glycemic index. Kidney beans. Low. Lentils. Low. Peanuts. Low. Cereals and grains. Glycemic index. Rice (brown)Medium. Instant oatmeal. High. Corn flakes. High. Breads. Glycemic index. Whole- grain bread. Low. Hamburger bun (white)Medium. White bread. High. Pasta. Glycemic index. Spaghetti (whole wheat)Low. Spaghetti (white)Low. Macaroni. Low. Under columns labeled low, medium, or high, list the different foods you eat, according to their glycemic index. You can see at a glance how many high- , medium- , and low- glycemic foods you eat. You may find that you already are eating many foods that are low or medium on the index. But you also may find many foods that are high- glycemic or on the high end of medium. A dietitian or. certified diabetes educator can help you pick foods that you like and that are low on the index. You can get more information from the American Diabetes Association at www. Swap some high- glycemic foods with low- glycemic choices. Look at your list for high- glycemic foods that you eat only now and then or that you wouldn't mind removing from your diet. Find some low- glycemic choices that you could eat in place of those high- glycemic foods. So, for example, if you like baked potatoes, try having a baked yam instead. If you often eat a plain bagel for breakfast, try a slice of multi- grain toast instead. Watermelon is a fine treat once in a while in the summer. But you could limit how much of it you eat. Or you could have strawberries or other low- glycemic berries instead. Follow some tips to make low- glycemic choices. Eat unprocessed food as often as you can. Whole, unprocessed food usually (but not always) has a lower glycemic index than the same food when it's processed. For example, white bread is more processed than whole wheat bread. Don't overcook pasta. Cooking pasta until well done raises its glycemic index. For a lower glycemic index, pull the pasta out of the water when it's still a little firm—but not hard—when you bite it. Choose high- fiber foods. Most food that is high in fiber takes longer to digest and raises blood sugar slowly. Eat measured portions of high- glycemic foods. You can still eat food with a high glycemic index. Many of these foods have nutrients that you need. But try to eat small portions. Eat a low- glycemic food along with a high- glycemic food. Adding a healthy fat to your meal also will slow the rise of your blood sugar. For example, add a small amount of olive oil when you roast potatoes. Although sticky rice has a high glycemic index, eating it with chicken and vegetables will lower its glycemic index. Choose whole grains. Use whole- grain bread for your toast in the morning, and eat whole grains at lunch. Whole grains include barley, brown rice, and 1. When eating out, choose dishes with non- starchy vegetables. Most non- starchy vegetables are low on the glycemic index. Set goals and get support. Have your own reasons for wanting to try this eating plan. Set a main goal. Then start with smaller goals that will help you reach your larger goal. For example, if your main goal is to eat only one high- glycemic food a day—and you now eat seven high- glycemic foods a day—you could make a smaller goal to remove one or two of those high- glycemic foods from your diet each week. Think about what might get in your way. Know that you may have slip- ups, and prepare for how you'll deal with them. Perhaps you went out to eat and had a meal with several high- glycemic foods. Instead of being upset with yourself, you could try to make a plan for the next time you go out to eat. That way, you can pick low- or medium- glycemic foods ahead of time. Get support as you make a change in your diet. Ask friends or family to encourage you. They might even want to join you in eating more low- glycemic foods.

New Weight Loss Drug Saxenda: FAQDec. A drug that treats type 2 diabetes has gotten FDA approval for another use: weight loss. Saxenda is the fourth drug for weight loss OK'd by the agency since 2. It's already available in a lower dose as Victoza for type 2 diabetes. Researchers began to study it as an obesity treatment after people on Victoza reported weight loss. Saxenda, like Victoza, is injected daily. It's approved for people with a body mass index (BMI) of 3. BMI of 2. 7 with weight- related conditions such as high blood pressure. It's meant to be used with exercise and a reduced- calorie diet. Web. MD asked two experts to address commonly asked questions about Saxenda. How does the drug work to achieve weight loss? It mimics a hormone made in the intestines called GLP- 1 (glucagon- like peptide), says William Troy Donahoo, MD. He's a staff physician in the Metabolic- Surgical Weight Management Department, Kaiser Permanente, Denver. One role of GLP- 1 is to tell your brain you’re full, he says. The medicine works in many ways to help beta cells normalize blood sugars. Beta cells make and release insulin when blood sugar is high. They help those with type 2 diabetes keep their blood sugar normal. How well does Saxenda work? Donahoo says he expects a range of weight loss responses to Saxenda, just as he has seen various responses from people on Victoza for their diabetes. Clinical trials of Saxenda continued for about a year and included about 4,8. He's the medical director of the Obesity Program at Joslin Diabetes Center. In comparison, 3. FDA. He also says people generally lose less weight outside of clinical trials. Continued. How does Saxenda compare with other weight loss drugs? It hasn't been compared directly with other recently approved weight loss drugs, including Belviq, Contrave, and Qsymia. Based on the clinical trial information, Donahoo predicts Saxenda will be ''not quite as good as Qsymia but probably better than Belviq. It can also raise heart rate. The drug will include a boxed warning about thyroid tumors. People with a family history of a specific type of thyroid cancer should not take the drug. The FDA will continue to look at the risk of thyroid cancer, along with breast cancer, in the drug’s post- marketing studies. It will also judge Saxenda’s safety for children, its effect on sexual function and central nervous system development, and for heart risks. How long will Saxenda need to be taken for weight loss and control? Experts say they're not sure how long would be best, since the clinical trials lasted about a year. The FDA says people should be checked after using it for 1. If a patient hasn’t lost at least 4% body weight, they should stop the drug. What will it cost? For more, visit TIME Health.

Equipment: Any cardio machine or activity. Why It Works. This workout includes high impact, high- intensity exercises, done in a format designed to get you out of your comfort zone, burn more calories, and increase your anaerobic threshold. In this workout, you'll be switching between 3. Moderate Intensity: A moderate intensity is around a Level 6 on this perceived exertion scale. High Intensity: You can't sustain this for long because you're well out of your comfort zone, around a Level 8 on the perceived exertion scale. Very High Intensity: This is the shortest interval and the one that takes you to a Level 8- 9, which should be in your anaerobic zone. By focusing on all levels of intensity, you're training all of your body's energy systems for a comprehensive, calorie- burning workout. Try It: 3. 0- 6. 0- 9. Interval Workout. More. Duration: 3.

Workout 2: This uses an elliptical trainer where you'll gradually up your resistance/ramps for 6- minute intervals, lowering them for 2 minutes, giving you a killer interval workout.

Because the intensity is cumulative, you should feel breathless by the end of each circuit. A very short recovery time: You do each high- intensity cardio exercise for 4. When you do all 4 exercises, that comes out to 4 minutes of work. You can stick with that, or repeat the circuit for a longer workout. We’ve researched and ranked the top 10 best pre-workout supplements for women on the market and are proud to present you with our findings.

Varying levels of intensity: During this workout, you'll increase and decrease your resistance levels, pushing you to work harder and then recover enough to get ready for the next push. Varying intervals: Some intervals are 1 minute and some are 2 minutes and as the workout goes on, you'll find those rest periods aren't enough time to get your heart rate down. Steady state intervals: To give you a break, there are steady state recovery intervals throughout the workout to help you catch your breath. Try It: Elliptical Interval Workout. More. Duration: 6. Fitness Level: Intermediate/Advanced. Equipment: Any cardio machine. Why It Works. High- intensity workouts are great, but you want to work at different levels of intensity during the week.

This makes the workout longer and a little more comfortable than the other higher intensity workouts. How It Works. 10 different intervals: Each interval is 4 minutes long. Moderate intensity: For each 4- minute interval, you'll work just out of your comfort zone, around a Level 6 on this perceived exertion scale. You should be working hard, but be able to sustain this level for the full 4 minutes. There are 2- minute recovery intervals in between each work set. Take the speed, resistance, and/or incline down to a comfortable place so you can fully recover. As you get tired, you may need to slow down or lower your incline/resistance to maintain the suggested levels of exertion.

Equipment: None. Why It Works. Tabata training is one of the best cardio workouts, taking you through very short, very intense intervals that only last 2.

Outdoor workouts tend to revolve around a few basic activities: walking, running, and cycling. Those can all be effective calorie- burning exercises, but one way to ensure that is to try adding some intensity to your usual routine. How It Works. Being outside challenges your body in a different way than machines do, so you're already increasing your calorie burn. What adds to that: Steady state cardio: You'll walk or run for a period of time, keeping the intensity moderate and focusing on your aerobic zone. Short bursts of speed or hills: Every so often, you'll pick up the pace or head up a hill (if you've got one nearby) to push yourself out of the aerobic zone. High- intensity exercises: Finally, you'll stop during the workout for things like pushups, long jumps, and other high impact moves to take you even further out of your comfort zone. Not only will you get a great workout, you'll have some fun by trying something totally different. Try It: Outdoor Circuit Workout. More. 8. Make Your Own Workout. Duration: Up to You.

What causes obesity? The balance between calorie intake and energy expenditure determines a person's weight. If a person eats more calories than he or she burns (metabolizes), the person gains weight (the body will store the excess energy as fat). If a person eats fewer calories than he or she metabolizes, he or she will lose weight.

Ultimately, body weight is the result of genetics, metabolism, environment, behavior, and culture. Genetics. A person is more likely to develop obesity if one or both parents are obese. Genetics also affect hormones involved in fat regulation. For example, one genetic cause of obesity is leptin deficiency. Leptin is a hormone produced in fat cells and also in the placenta. Leptin controls weight by signaling the brain to eat less when body fat stores are too high. Learn about Gallstones. Includes overview, cause, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, exams and tests, prevention, and medications. Know how to have this power diet, and when to have it! You can dissolve gallstones in most cases. Surgical procedures should be a last resort and not your only option. However, not every doctor will be upfront and honest. If, for some reason, the body cannot produce enough leptin or leptin cannot signal the brain to eat less, this control is lost, and obesity occurs. The role of leptin replacement as a treatment for obesity is currently being explored. Overeating. Overeating leads to weight gain, especially if the diet is high in fat. Foods high in fat or sugar (for example, fast food, fried food, and sweets) have high energy density (foods that have a lot of calories in a small amount of food). Epidemiologic studies have shown that diets high in fat contribute to weight gain. A diet high in simple carbohydrates. The role of carbohydrates in weight gain is not clear. Carbohydrates increase blood glucose levels, which in turn stimulate insulin release by the pancreas, and insulin promotes the growth of fat tissue and can cause weight gain. Some scientists believe that simple carbohydrates (sugars, fructose, desserts, soft drinks, beer, wine, etc.) contribute to weight gain because they are more rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream than complex carbohydrates (pasta, brown rice, grains, vegetables, raw fruits, etc.) and thus cause a more pronounced insulin release after meals than complex carbohydrates. This higher insulin release, some scientists believe, contributes to weight gain. Frequency of eating. The relationship between frequency of eating (how often you eat) and weight is somewhat controversial. There are many reports of overweight people eating less often than people with normal weight. Scientists have observed that people who eat small meals four or five times daily, have lower cholesterol levels and lower and/or more stable blood sugar levels than people who eat less frequently (two or three large meals daily). One possible explanation is that small frequent meals produce stable insulin levels, whereas large meals cause large spikes of insulin after meals. Physical inactivity. Sedentary people burn fewer calories than people who are active. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) showed that physical inactivity was strongly correlated with weight gain in both sexes. Medications. Medications associated with weight gain include certain antidepressants (medications used in treating depression), anticonvulsants (medications used in controlling seizures such as carbamazepine . Weight gain may also be seen with some high blood pressure medications and antihistamines. The reason for the weight gain with the medications differs for each medication. If this is a concern for you, you should discuss your medications with your physician rather than discontinuing the medication, as this could have serious effects. Psychological factors. For some people, emotions influence eating habits. Many people eat excessively in response to emotions such as boredom, sadness, stress, or anger. While most overweight people have no more psychological disturbances than normal weight people, about 3. Diseases such as hypothyroidism, insulin resistance, polycystic ovary syndrome, and Cushing's syndrome are also contributors to obesity. Social issues: A link between social issues and obesity has been established. Lack of money to purchase healthy foods or lack of safe places to walk or exercise can increase the risk of obesity.
