Spring into Spring with 7 Healthy Weight Loss Tips

3/18/2018

8 Comments

Below are 7 simple personal tips I've complied to help you lose weight, please click into my webpage HERE to learn about my opinions on dieting and more details on weight loss and a healthy lifestyle.

Start small, and think small changes that are easy to stick with. Did you know that a pound of fat is approximately 3,500 calories? So if you eat 100 less calories a day for a year, you can lose 10lbs in a year. Not a lot, but an easy change if you think that 100 calories is just a half cup of rice, a tablespoon of peanut butter, a small cookie, or 8 doritos chips.
Drink water instead of sodas or juices. Even if you drink diet drinks, the toxic fake sugar substitutes trick your brain into craving more real sugar, which can cause you to eat empty calories.
Conscious eating: Always pay attention when you eat, the best bites of food are the first ones you take. Focus on the taste and texture of what you are eating and you will feel satiated quicker.
Recognize when you are truly hungry. Ask yourself, “Am I full? Do I need this 2nd slice of cake?”
Focus more on what you CAN eat. Think of “adding” foods. Add fruits and veggies, perhaps challenge yourself to eating 3 different types of vegetables or fruits a day. You’ll be thinking about how to eat those instead of worrying about not being able to eat sometime else.
Keep a food journal and reasons why you are eating: hunger, boredom, the food is there and accessible. A quick tip here is to not buy junk foods you love, then if you have a craving you don’t have access to it.
My favorite tip of all: don’t focus so much on it. Be honest, are you eating well? Are you exercising? Are you truly overweight or are you just weight conscious because society wants us to be thin?

6 QUICK TIPS TO BEAT SPRING ALLERGIES

2/20/2017

2 Comments

Hi All,
It's almost allergy season, every year patients ask us about treating spring allergies with acupuncture. Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could enjoy the beautiful blue sky and the fragrance of flowers without the sneezing, itchy eyes or congestion? Here are 6 tips, you can try to relieve your allergies:

Cook up some delicious and spicy food. Try cayenne pepper and garlic; spices thin mucous secretions, which in turn can clear nasal passages.
Remove your shoes when you enter your home, shoes can track all sorts of dust and pollen into your home.
Change pillow cases more often if you have allergies to pollen or dust, both of which cling to pillow cases and can make your allergies worse as you sleep.
Vacuum often with a HEPA filter.
Change your air conditioning filters, HEPA filters trap pollen spores so that you can experience relief in your home.
See your acupuncturist. We typically recommend people come in 2-3 weeks before allergy season starts to help keep symptoms at bay. Give us a call or send a text to 201-431-5066.

To learn more: visit our Allergies webpage for articles from the New York Times, NPR, and CNN.

Let's spring into spring!
Pema
