Are you ready to learn about a fuel you can eat that won't kick your body out of fat-burning mode?

Meet the Fuel Pull!

A Fuel Pull (FP) meal is going to be low calorie and low fat.

This fuel is delightfully neutral. You can even start your meal as an FP and add carbs to convert it to an E (energizing) meal or add fats to make it an S (satisfying) meal.

The FP foods can balance out meals that have a heavier calorie load and they are very weight loss friendly.

But, be very careful that you do NOT abuse your use of the FP meal. 

Remember, we are not going to deprive our bodies of good fuel. You need to switch out your fuels to see healthy, sustainable weight loss. 

Fuel Pull meals still start with a protein foundation. Choose a lean meat like chicken breast, lean deli meat or lean turkey (check all labels to make sure your choosing low fat & low carb). Egg white are a perfect FP fuel along with low fat dairy options. 

Add your veggies! Most veggies, like leaf...

Are you ready to get Energized?

Let’s continue to learn about the Trim Healthy Mama eating plan. This is the best eating plan that you can follow for your health, hormones, and fat loss especially if you are over the age of 40. Mid-life weight can be very difficult to shed because you are dealing with shifting hormone levels. The best plan for you to follow is the Trim Healthy Mama way of eating because it will bring your blood sugar levels under control and allow your body to heal and release stubborn weight.

I taught you earlier about Satisfying meals that are centered around good healthy fats; now let’s look at Energizing meals. 

E meals are Energizing meals. When we create E meals our focus turns away from fats and toward carbs. Carbs give us the energy that we need. Carbs are basically glucose and our bodies need glucose in the right setting and at the right time.

Healthy carbs are metabolism revving and healing to our endocrine system.

Do you have some super-friendly fat cells hanging out in places you don’t want? 

I know you’ve been told to starve those fat cells and exercise the heck out of them but what if that advice doesn’t actually work? 

Let’s look at the best ways you can shrink those fat cells while boosting your metabolism.

>Exercise the right way 

High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) has been shown to increase fat burning even at rest. But it is important how you exercise during this season. No more than 2-3 intense workouts per week for a total of around 40 minutes is the recommendation for Wise Women. Too much intense exercise can cause what the body perceives as stress and increase cortisol levels (fat storage). Protein after a workout is essential for muscle repair and blood sugar stabilization. Along with HIIT (low impact counts), strength training is important for reducing bone loss and increasing muscle mass which increases fat burning and metabolism. Women over 40 should perform 2-3...
