Why do we continue to OVEREAT?

If you consider the body needs essential nutrients; and you are consuming lots of empty calories… your body is still starving for those nutrients.

There is also the opportunity for leptin resistance. If your finger touches a hot stove, you want your fingertip and brain to recognize that it is hot, immediately causing you to pull your finger away.  With Leptin Resistance, it is like your fingertip is stuck on that stove and burning the skin off; you just keep overeating because your body is resistant to Leptin, the hormone that tells you to stop eating because you are full.

Gherlin is the hormone released to tell our bodies we are hungry and need fuel/nutrients.  When you start to eat, your fat cells release Leptin, which then tells your brain our nutrient levels have been met; and we should stop eating.  

What is leptin resistance?

One Choice at a Time

Change is a Choice; Which You Must be Ready for

When it comes to change; It’s not that some people have willpower and some don’t.

It’s some people are ready for change and some are not.

Some are able to make changes alone. Some need a little support and guidance.

A productive approach to sustainable change…consider the positive habits you already have concerning a healthy lifestyle and amplify those behaviors.

Change that is motivated by fear, guilt, regret or a desire to fix a perceived weakness often leads to a negative self-defeating cycle in which we try and fail and keep being reminded of what is not working.

Focus and Build on the Positives, leave the negatives behind.

Pace yourself. Small steps. You’ll get there.

Choices for a Happy Healthy New Year

What do you want MORE of in 2024? Or is a better question what do you want less of ?

To make room for more of something you will need to let go of something.  Release those choices and things that are not supporting your health and wellness.

How about less fatigue, less pain, less anxiety, less weight, less depression, less inflammation, less sick days, less headaches, less bloating, less putting out fires, less clutter or less waste just to name a few.

What do you want more of in 2024?

ACCEPT what you cannot change -your age, your genetics, all your choices prior to today, what others think, what others say, what happens around you, the attitudes, beliefs, choices and perceptions of others.

CHANGE what you can change - your future choices of how you move, how much you sleep, what you consume, how you treat yourself, your responses to others through your words and actions, where you focus your time, energy and attention, how you let others affect you, your gratitude and how you demonstrate it.

Body Be Well Solutions offers a variety of different approaches for Making Healthy a Habit, One Choice at a Time. Not a diet – that is short term.  Not even really big changes; sometimes its the smallest that have the greatest impact. Choices that actually change your lifestyle and get you on the road to health and happiness for good. Creating the resilience to get back on track during those occasions of getting sidetracked. 

Actions are more powerful than words - take a look…

Focusing on What Really Matters - Vision Board Results

This Vision Board Workshop group included 4 seasoned Grandmas, 1 new Grandma, 1 new Mom, a Mom who also created a board with her a 2 year old daughter the morning after! So much FUN and what a simple yet powerful experience in focusing on what really matters in life!

While having an opportunity to take the time to make some connections to what was and is truly important; several strangers in the group made connections - supporting the value of community and how none of us are alone on this journey.

If you look closely… there is a Self-care theme on all of the boards. Stay tuned for future workshop offerings to move to… Making Healthy a Habit, One Choice at a Time!

“I was motivated by your holding this group workshop - it gave me an opportunity to give a lot of thought as to where I want to go in the next couple of years…you provided form and venue to my thoughts and made it happen for me; Thank You. Your enthusiasm is inspiring. I am grateful to have been apart of tonight’s group and to have been your client these past years. ”

Are You Open to Another Perspective - Beyond Your Own?

After years of trying various approaches. Observing all the social influencers swear that theirs is the only approach for you. Where are you? Any further along on your journey to wellness and healthy sustained weight-loss? Or are you exactly where you started… or maybe a little heavier or a bit unhealthier?

There is a reason - quick fixes are simply that a quick fix. Behavioral change is where your behaviors change, and different choices are made.

Health Coaching is becoming increasingly valuable as people begin to realize they haven’t been able to achieve something on their own, and recognize that the perspective of someone who can see beyond the situation they continue to find themselves in.

Poor quick fix lifestyle choices are responsible for continued weight gain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, and overall illness.   Health Coaching is a collaborative partnership; with YOU the client being able to tap into YOUR inner strength and external resources to achieve health and wellness you deserve.   

Have you been able to achieve the results you want on your own?

Pace yourself

When we move too quickly or jump from one step to the next, we risk stumbling, falling and becoming stuck. We then have the natural tendency to become frustrated, overwhelmed and may stop moving forward all together.

In the same manner if we move too quickly through making healthy choices, there is little opportunity for those choices to become healthy habits.

A series of small steps will take you where you want to go; each of them provide the balance and support to take the next step.

Prepping Weekly Food

How long can it be safely kept in the fridge?

Always consider storing in glass containers, like mason jars… freshness is enhanced.

• 2-3 days : cooked poultry or seafood, chopped salad

• 4-5 days : boiled eggs, cooked oatmeal or legumes

• 5-7 days : cooked rice, sweet potatoes or pasta

Do you know your chemistry?

Understanding how our bodies respond to what we put into them; making minor changes can significantly alter our energy levels and overall health.

Do you know the impact of what you are consuming through food or drink?

Each of our bodies is like a chemistry beaker, everything we put in causes some sort of a reaction.. some good, some not so good and some really awful.

Doubtful of that? Consider:

• children at a birthday party after the cake and ice cream

• the impact of alcohol after 1, 2, 3 or maybe 4 drinks

• how drinking coffee when you are tired can energize you

Change is a choice

It’s not that some people have willpower and some don’t. It’s some people are ready for change and some are not.

Some are able to make changes alone. Some need a little support and guidance.

Don’t fear change, fear not changing.

Pace yourself. Small steps. You’ll get there.

Your diet is not just what you eat

Are you treating yours with respect?

Health is a relationship you have with your body. A powerful and interesting way to look at it. Your diet is everything you expose yourself to.

It is what you listen to, what you read, what you watch, the people you hang around, the entertainment you engage in, your hobbies, etc…

Are you being as supportive of its needs as you could be? Are you protecting it from harm? Are you nourishing it? Are you showing it love?

What does Isotonic Delivery Mean?

Do you take vitamins? Do you absorb them? There is a difference….

The nutraMetrix isotonic delivery system is different, and important to understand with so many people today having compromised digestive systems. An isotonic solution (liquid) delivery means that the body has less work to do in obtaining maximum absorption. This allows nutrients to pass directly into the small intestine and be rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream. Minimal nutritive value lost, making the absorption of vitamin highly efficient while delivering maximum results. While getting the most product for your dollar… not unnecessary and unknown fillers.
