5 Day Slim Down

 

Cleanse Your Body & Clear Your Mind

 Wouldn't it feel great to be in control of your eating again?

What would it feel like to have some wiggle room in your jeans?

Wouldn't it be great to feel lighter?

Wouldn't it be great to be heading in a positive direction?

I get it, I really do! As a busy mom who’s seen the scale go up and down over the years, fallen into emotional eating patterns (potato chips, bowls of cereal and salty foods are my weakness) and struggled with weight gain as I’ve gotten older (metabolism slowing down, which applies to men AND women) I GET IT!       

I won't lie and say that I wasn't a little nervous to do my first detox, because I was. 

I was thinking, “a detox means I can’t eat anything, it’s just liquid and that’ll never work for me.” But THIS detox has PLENTY of healthy whole foods and protein. I am so glad that I did this because creating and doing this detox was a game changer for me. It helped me gain control of my eating again, get rid of processed foods, junk and sugar and I needed that change to fuel me so I could move forward. I was finally able to lose those extra pounds around my belly, I had more energy, was sleeping better and feeling refreshed. That's why I'm so excited to share this detox with you. You'll have oodles of support from me along the way. It literally changed my life and I know it will do the same for you. 

 ~Laura McDonald, HHC, ACE, AFAA, YOGA-FIT 

Why Detox? Everyday our body is bombarded by harsh toxins and chemicals from our surrounding environment. Chemicals, pesticides, hormones and other pollutants are found in all the processed foods we eat, and often in the water we drink and the air we breathe. Under natural circumstances, the body is able to eliminate many of these toxic substances safely provided that is getting proper nutrition in sufficient quantities and the organs of detoxification are functioning at optimal levels. The problem is, most of us are not functioning at our optimal levels due to stress, poor sleep, and vitamin deficiencies. That's where a detox can help! 

Believe it or not, your body may be carrying around 5 to 10 pounds of toxic waste, which slows down your ability to lose weight! This detox is for you if you often have...

• Headaches
• Low energy
• Indigestion
• Constipation
• Skin conditions such as acne
• Insomnia
• Belly weight gain
• Chronic yeast infections
• Eczema
• Excess weight
• Mood swings

You might be thinking... Is this a deprivation detox?  
~Absolutely not! You are going to be able to eat as much food as you want, according to the detoxing guidelines. 
Will I have enough support? ~Yes, you will! Support is the cornerstone of this cleanse. You'll have individual support from me when you need it via email and you'll also have a private Facebook group where you can share your experience with other people enrolled in the cleanse. 
Will I be able to eat out? ~Yes, there is an Eating Out Strategy Guide included in the program. 
How 'easy' can this really be? ~The entire detox is laid out for you so you'll know what to eat everyday. There's even a shopping list so you can literally hit "print" and run off to the grocery store. I made this as easy for you as possible so you don't have to worry about the food. 
What happens after the detox? ~Don't worry! We're going to walk through the details on how to transition back to a diet that works for your unique body type and lifestyle together. There is an extra week of group support if you get stuck and of course, continual support from me!

5 Steps To Flatter Abs

If you’re like a lot of people you’ve worked hard for years to attain a leaner, flatter, toned stomach. Have you been on crazy diets and done tons of crunches, or maybe even considered lipo?  All for the sake of that glorious, flatter, toned and tight tummy?

Here are just a few of the reasons for a flabby tummy:

• Pregnancy - Having gone through three pregnancies and gaining a significant amount of weight each time, this has always been one of my biggest obstacles.
• Age - Starting in our 30‘s our metabolism slows down. 
• Stress - Stress and lack of sleep elevate cortisol levels which leads to excess fat around the middle. (Check, this applies to me, also).
• Hormones - For both men and women this can be an issue.
• Not enough exercise - You’ve got to stoke that metabolism to burn that belly fat.
• Poor nutrition - Eating too much junk and not enough healthy, whole foods.

5 Steps to Help Flatten That Belly:

1. Cardio Exercise - Warm up for several minutes then move into at least 30-45 minutes of cardio (biking, hiking, power walking, jogging, running, aerobics class, etc.) Start at a comfortable pace but when you’re ready push yourself past your comfort zone. This means you’ve got to break a sweat, get your heart-rate up, release those feel-good endorphins, dig deeper! Once you’re able to do 30 minutes without feeling overwhelmed, up the intensity. On a scale of 1-10 (1 sitting watching tv and 10 being ready to pass out from exhaustion) you want to be around 7-8. To shed fat you've got to step up your game!

My personal favorite Cardio:  

Kickboxing! This is popular with both men and women and has the added benefits of improving power, balance and coordination.  Kickboxing helps work out stresses and frustration, enhances confidence and burns a ton of calories. The moves also target multiple muscle groups, especially the core.

Create Healthy Habits

Healthy habits are learned in the same way as unhealthy ones - - - through practice.

By creating and implementing healthy habits, you can begin to make and sustain major changes for the rest of your life.  The good news is it’s NEVER too late to make changes, even little changes like learning to slow down and relax can add quality and years to your life. Here are 6 easy suggestions to get you going:

Simple Morning Stretch:

When you rise in the morning, take a few precious moments to slowly and gently stretch out your body. Think about cats and dogs, when they wake from slumber they move and bend and stretch.  This will wake up the muscles and get blood and oxygen flowing throughout your body, better preparing you mentally and physically for the day ahead of you.

Eat a Little Less: 

Use a smaller plate, a smaller fork or spoon, even chopsticks. Prepare a simple table setting and sit down to eat. Chew slowly and take little breaks by putting your utensils down for a few seconds. Enjoy your meal and of course make it healthy. A good rule of thumb is fill your plate with 3/4‘s whole grains, fresh colorful vegetables and fruits, and the rest lean protein.

Drink Plenty of Water:

It doesn’t have to be super-expensive fancy bottled water, in fact I urge you to carry a reusable water container with you to stay hydrated, save a few bucks and do the planet a favor. Add some fresh squeezed lemon or doTerra DoTERRA ESSENTIAL OILS Lemon/grapefruit/lime oil. The citrus will help rid petrochemicals in your system, cleanse and detox. 

Exercise:

However you do it, you need to get your body moving on a regular basis. Incorporate some type of fitness into your day, whether it’s one longer session at your local gym, a class you can attend, a brisk walk on your lunch break, or a fitness dvd.  Take your kids to the playground and play with them, take the dog for a long walk, call a friend and meet up for a power-walk/jog.

If you live an apartment building like me, you can go up and down 2-3 flights of stairs for 20-30 minutes for a great calorie burning cardio workout. Just MOVE...it all counts and it should become one of your top habits!

Do Something for You:

Most of us tend to do, do, do for others in our lives.  We work hard, take care of the home, run errands, and do chores. Be selfish a few times a week and take a few minutes to do something you enjoy! Read a book or magazine, get a manicure or 10 minute massage, go to a movie, or call and catch up with a friend or family member. Nurturing and pampering yourself a bit is good for everyone in your life, because if your happy and feeling good, so is the rest of the gang.

Meditate:

This one can be difficult, yet it’s simple to do.  Taking 5-10 minutes to sit/lie still, calming your body and mind is very healing and rejuvenating. Allow yourself this gift as often as you can. Find a quiet spot, turn off the gadgets, dim the lights, put on some soothing music, light a candle, use some essential oils DoTERRA ESSENTIAL OILS and let your mind and body relax. Lie or sit comfortably, close your eyes and take slow, deep breaths in and out. You deserve a moment of serenity. 

Any of these suggestions above will ease you into healthier habits and when you create healthier habits, you create a healthier life.

Pump Up Your Power Walk!

Inexpensive Exercise Toys for Home/Travel Workout

These are my favorite must have exercise toys. Well, the mat's not really a toy but super important for home work-outs or to take with you to a yoga class.

These items are also recommended for my week long JUMPSTART PROGRAM:  7 DAY SLIM DOWN.

It's not absolutely necessary, but it is helpful in taking your workout to the next level. I have a few links to products to make it easier to purchase, or you can find any of this equipment at a Target, Sporting Store, K-mart, etc. Chances are you might even have some of these items stashed away somewhere already. (These are great pieces to have for everyday at home workouts!)

One set of 2 and 5 pound dumbbells.

One medium resistance tubing band. (It's always good to have a few extra gauges for exercising, light, medium, hard, and these are sometimes sold in sets).

Twist Board (This is an amazing little contraption to really whittle the waist, super inexpensive
and very portable).

Yoga or exercise mat.

How to Make a Quick, Healthy Veggie Sandwich

Here’s a quick, warm veggie sandwich that’s great for lunch or a snack. My kids love these and they are so easy to prepare.

I’m listing the basic ingredients that I use, but get creative and make it personal. If you use cheese or vegan cheese, you could melt it on top under a broiler or in a toaster oven for a few minutes. 

I always have a box of veggie burgers and sprouted grain on hand in the freezer. That makes putting together one of these yummy veggie sandwiches a snap!

Ingredients: (serves one)

• Sprouted grain, whole grain or bread of choice, toasted
• One veggie patty cooked in skillet with oil of your choice, or heat in oven.
• Avocado
• Mushrooms
• Spinach
• (Or any other fresh, seasonal organic vegetables you have on hand.)
• Dressing: 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons Olive oil. Whisk all together.

I like to moisten the toast with a little olive oil. Pour on some of the dressing, build your sandwich, add a little more dressing if you like. Add a pinch of salt and pepper. Serve with some fresh cut veggies on the side and enjoy!

6 Ways To Get Your Kids (And You) Moving

When I was a kid we were usually outside all day, biking, swimming, playing games, running behind the mosquito truck as it pumped chemicals into our lungs and the air. (That’s just what you did back then, who knew?) Life has changed drastically since the 60’s and 70’s. Much of America's farmland has become parking lots while fresh foods are less available and more expensive and the creation of processed foods offer cheap, quick, easy meals. Television now dominates the “quality” time families spend together. Computers and social networking can eat up to 7 hours a day!

As awesome as technology is, our children are paying heavily (yes, a pun) for these modern conveniences. Inside passive entertainment combined with high calorie, chemical laden, fast foods are contributing to an all out epidemic. Childhood obesity in America has doubled in children and tripled in adolescents over the past 30 years.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:

In 2010, more than one third of children and adolescents were overweight or obese.

These children also have all the risk factors that adult obesity brings:

• Heart disease
• Diabetes
• High cholesterol
• High blood pressure
• Higher risk of cancer
• Bone and Joint issues

They are also more likely to become obese adults with potential social and psychological problems leading to depression and low self-esteem.

Here are 6 fun ideas to get your family moving, get healthier, and create a stronger bond:

Exercise And Depression

Many studies have shown that people who exercise regularly reap the benefits of lower rates of depression and a positive boost in mood and energy.

How does exercise help with depression and anxiety?

When you exercise your brain releases feel-good endorphins that ease depression.  These endorphins also trigger a positive feeling in the body which help diminish the perception of pain and anxiety.  Exercise will also reduce immune system chemicals that can deepen depression. You will raise your heart rate which increases your body temperature for a calming effect. Exercise has psychological and emotional benefits, too.  It can help you gain confidence, boost self-esteem, improve sleep and getting in shape can help you feel better about your appearance!

What type of exercise is best? 

The good news is that virtual any form of exercise can help depression and anxiety.

You don’t have to go crazy and run 10 miles everyday!  Exercise includes a wide range of activities that boost your activity level to help you feel better.  Running, lifting weights, playing sports and other fitness activities that get your heart pumping can help. But so can gardening, washing your car, taking a stroll and other less intense activities. Anything that gets you off the couch and moving is exercise that can help improve your mood and reduce depression. You can start slowly by taking walks around the neighborhood (go with a friend!) Gradually, work up to exercising on most days of the week.  Try any of these moderate ways to get exercise:

• Gardening
• Dancing
• Biking
• Low-impact aerobics
• Swimming
• Walking
• Jogging
• Yoga

Making lifestyle changes can also help:

*Eat healthy whole foods, fruits and vegetables. Use healthy fats and limit sugar. Make sure  to get a good night's sleep. Drink plenty of water.  

*Reduce stress at home and at work. Ask for help with some of the stressful things in your life. Enlist friends or family to occasionally help take care of some of the daily chores, like housework. If your job is stressful, figure out ways to scale back some of your responsibilities.

*Stop worrying!  Exercise is a distraction that can get you away from the cycle of negative thoughts that feed anxiety and depression.

*Get social. Joining a group exercise class may be beneficial. Exercise with  a friend or partner. 

Other added health benefits:

• Strengthens heart muscle
• Lowers Blood Pressure
• Reduced Body Fat
• Stronger bones
• Leaner, more toned muscles
• Increased energy
• Look fit and healthy
• Help reduce risk of osteoporosis, diabetes, and other types of diseases
• Lose weight
• Better Sex

6 Tips For Successful Weight Loss Journaling

As difficult as it may be to write down what you put in your mouth and how it makes you feel, study after study has shown a direct correlation to journaling and weight loss. Why? A journal holds you accountable, promotes awareness, understanding, even forgiveness. Journaling also forces you to be mindful of your dietary decisions, track your exercise and tune into what emotional triggers may be lurking.
The good news is your journal isn’t going to judge you. This is a friend who is always available, listening attentively to everything you have to say, and doesn’t give you any lip.

Jot it Down And Lose Pounds

Journaling is a tool I use successfully with many of my clients. They know themselves better than anyone else, what they feel, think, crave and fear. After just a few days and certainly a few weeks of journaling you will start to connect some serious dots.
You can achieve even greater success with your food journal if you include and embrace your emotions. By recognizing certain patterns, you are able to zero in and make specific, positive, healthy changes. 

All you need is a little inexpensive notebook and pen, or you can use the notes section in your phone. 

Here are 6 things to consider when keeping track in your journal:

Keep it simple.
Don’t get hung up on measurements or calories. You know 2 donuts for breakfast are a no-no. (double duh!) Jot down what you eat, when you ate it, and how you felt at the time.

Stress.
Whether it’s a crappy day at work, a feud with a friend or financial issues, jotting down what’s bothering you can help get it off your mind. You’ll also see the connection and role stress plays in unhealthy food choices and be able to move toward more positive, healthier decisions.

Exercise.
Write down your goals and create a simple plan to achieve it. Look ahead at your weekly schedule and make appointments with yourself to fit in exercise. Keep track in your journal. Note the progress you make towards your goal, and how you feel after you exercise.

Cravings.
Face your worst craving nightmares and write them down! Taking a peek on paper at what you’re obsessed about eating is an eye-opener. We all know it’s hard to resist cravings. Give yourself credit when you stick to your plan and dodge a bullet.

Buddy Up.
Why do it alone when you can do it with a friend? Find one or more friends on a similar path and help keep each other accountable. The camaraderie is a boost and you’ll help each other stick to the plan. Create a group on Facebook. This is an easy way to stay in touch, motivate and encourage each other. Share ideas, tips, feelings and milestones. Groups create a collective energy that will help fuel your success.

Progress.
Use your journal to recognize and track your progress. After a few weeks you should be more connected to what you’re thinking and feeling and how it affects your food-making decisions. By tuning into your patterns you’ll be more aware of what’s working for you. Most importantly, love yourself. Embrace the positive changes you’re making. Give yourself props for keeping a journal and remember, you can’t change what you don’t acknowledge.

Easy Tofu Scramble

Easy Tofu Scramble:

Make this your own by adding any veggies you like. This is my basic go-to recipe.

Ingredients (serves two)

1/2 onion, diced
1 clove minced garlic or 1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 green, red or yellow bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1 block tofu, drained and pressed
2 tbsp oil 
1 tbsp Tamara (soy sauce-optional)
2 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
1/2 tsp turmeric (optional)

Prep:
Slice the tofu into one inch cubes. Using either your hands or a fork, crumble it slightly.

Sautee onion, garlic, pepper and crumbled tofu in oil for 3-5 minutes, stirring often. Add remaining ingredients, reduce heat to medium and allow to cook 5-7 more minutes, stirring frequently and adding more oil if needed.
For a Mexican twist: 
Wrap in a warmed tortilla with a bit of salsa for a breakfast burrito and top with soy or dairy cheese.

Get Focused, Get A Plan, Let it Happen

Sometimes we just want it too much. If losing weight is the most important thing to you and all you can think about...care less.  Of course eating health, organic, clean foods, exercising and developing your inner life are truly important, but becoming obsessed with what you weigh, what you need to lose, what you look like, can be a dangerous thing.  It’s a no brainer that you want to work towards your goals of being healthier, trimmer, fitter, happier, but usually the more we focus and obsess on something the bigger the problem becomes.

Believe me, I know it's not easy finding that healthy balance of wanting and desiring something, versus becoming a stalker of your own obsessions.

If you want something too desperately, a relationship, a dream job, squeezing into your favorite jeans, or the winning lottery ticket you might find that this desperation can actually keep the very thing you want, the very thing you desire, out of reach. 

A little of my story:

I had about 50 pounds to lose after each one of my 3 pregnancies. It was overwhelming, taking care of a newborn, a toddler, a home, a dog, and then getting back into the working world. I knew I wanted to lose the weight and I wanted to lose it NOW, but I also was aware that it took me 9 months to gain that weight, and to take it off properly I had to be patient. I developed my plan, started exercising, then relaxed and let it happen. Yes, I was focused, but I had no choice but to live each day in the moment. I didn’t have time to get crazy obsessed. Don’t get me wrong, I kept my eye on the prize, but I didn’t beat myself up or throw in the towel if I wasn’t losing the weight as quickly as I would have liked. And guess what? It happened!  I was steadily dropping the extra pounds, eating better, feeling better and living my life.

One of the best ways to care less about something, is to care more about something else.  Find a new interest or hobby (or resurrect an old one.)  Go out and try something different, put yourself in a new circumstance, get the focus off of your body.

Also, when you’re busy with something you enjoy, you’re less likely to be worrying about what you should and shouldn’t be eating.

Take a class, pottery, writing, belly dancing, etc. Go to a local production of a play, a museum, get together with friends and go for a hike. Get out of your head and gain some knowledge on a new subject. I love people who have many interests - they're inspiring to be around, and that’s because what they have to offer comes from within.

Shift your focus, take a deep breath and care less about what you should look like- work realistically and patiently at eating better, greener, healthier foods, drinking plenty of water, stay away from sugar and processed foods and get moving. Let it happen, be in the moment and it will all fall into place.

Make It Happen Workout

M-I-H  

MAKE IT HAPPEN

WORKOUT

This is one of my simple, go to workouts. That's not to say it isn't intense, but it's very doable and you don't need a gym or any special equipment. I've designed it to be quick, effective and target all the major muscle groups with an added core-blaster. As always, check with your doctor before beginning any new exercise routine, drink plenty of water, take time to warm-up and stretch, take breaks if you need them and stop if you're experiencing any pain or dizziness.

Warm-up/Stretch for about 5 minutes (jog in place, walk, skip rope, etc.)

Complete a MINIMUM of 30 minutes cardio activity. (Biking, jogging, kick-boxing, power-walking, etc.) Put in one minute cardio interval "bursts"---this is how you up the intensity and push yourself harder. Do this every 4-5 minutes to really burn some serious calories and get your heart rate up.

500 Crunches ---- Yes, this sounds daunting but if you break it up into sections of 100 at a time it'll go by in a flash. Change 'em up---traditional, full sit-ups, leg drops, etc.

6 Yinyasas ---- Do this six times in a row, great for upper body, core and your mind! 
a) begin in down dog b) flow through to plank c) lower to chatarunga d) flow through to up dog e) return to down dog. Make sure you inhale and exhale through the moves, and don't rush it!

30 Squats

30 Triceps Dips

30 Alternating Lunges

Take a break, stretch, drink some more water. I'd love to know how you feel after your workout today, what was the hardest part? The best part? Your feedback is important to me! Thanks for taking the time to check out my site.
