Do you feel tired lately or uninspired for healthy breakfast ideas to start your day? Do you wonder how you got the “belly bulge”? Maybe you’re wondering if you can make it one day without sugar or “bad” carbohydrate cravings.In my opinion, by learning how to incorporate more pleasure in your life, you can actually enjoy the process of losing weight and keep it off. Would you be surprised to learn that it’s not always about how much you eat but what you eat that creates weight gain. It’s not about depriving yourself any more! Good nutrition is preventative medicine.

I see a lot of people who are stuck in the cycle of weight loss-weight gain, referred to as the “yo-yo” diet. They are tired of counting calories, feel deprived, or simply can’t figure out why they can’t lose weight. It shouldn’t be about dieting but living a healthy lifestyle that enables you to lose weight, keep the weight off, and maintain a balanced, healthy lifestyle.
