Kirstie Alley - Wow!

 

I just saw Kirstie Alley on a commercial and I was blown away! She looks fantastic.

I’ve been rooting for her since the beginning. She’s always been one of my favorite people I have to say and her battle with weight has caused me some grief. Seeing her struggle with things beyond just her weight, I can, as I sure most of us in some way, can empathize.

So many things factor into getting on a plan and sticking to it. The most important being your WHY.

It looks to me like Kirstie has found her WHY and she looks absolutely amazing. She’s happy, she’s dancing, she’s doing something right nutrition wise. I’m sure she has a nutritionist somewhere in the background helping her balance her meals because like me, Kirstie loves food. There’s no way either of us would give it up just to be thin.

A note here, because I know I’m going to get asked:

The product she’s using is some kind of supplement. The ingredients are not listed on the website so I have no idea what’s in it or whether or not it’s good for you. It claims to boost energy and be organic, that’s all I know.

I’m not endorsing any product here. I’m simply saying Kudos to Kirstie for finding her passion in exercise and making her health a priority.

To Your Health my Friends!

Truth or Myth: The Lies you Believe about Losing Weight #5

Reduced Fat or Fat Free products will help you lose weight

This is clever marketing. Words like All Natural and even Organic get tossed around in the same context, to make you believe that you are making a better decision for your body. Oftentimes the opposite is true. Reduced or Fat Free products might lower the grams of fat, but if you read the labels carefully, it's usually the same amount of calories just redistributed into chemicals and or heavier carbs and sugars.

If you know how to read labels, you have everything you need to make healthy decisions in the foods you buy. Don't be fooled by the marketing hype on the front of the label. Look to the ingredients on the back. This is where the truth is (or at least what the FDA makes them own up to).
