Cause of Most Chronic Diseases

Posted by on Jul 19, 2012 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Cause of Most Chronic Diseases

“Today, more than 95% of all chronic disease is caused by food choice, toxic food ingredients, nutritional deficiencies and lack of physical exercise.”  ~Mike Adams We only have one body, we might as well take good care of it. I suggest learning how to read food labels so you can avoid toxic ingredients, and learn how to cook food at home. In addition to providing your body with the nutrients it needs, start an exercise program and stick to it. Living a healthy lifestyle doesn’t mean eating well and exercising until you reach weight loss or a particular goal. Living a healthy lifestyle means you eat healthy and exercise regularly because this is just what you do. It’s a way of life. Living a healthy lifestyle will yield positive results. Eat real food. Exercise regularly. Problem Solved. Feel free...

Posted by on May 7, 2012 in Skinny Tips & Quotes, Twinkie | Comments Off on That’s What I Call Will Power

More fun and totally random health related pictures. 1. My husband was given this candy bar for his birthday. He ate three pieces (one row), and had the candy bar sitting on his desk for weeks. I finally took a picture of it, just to show myself what real “Will Power” looks like.   2. I’m still not sure if this is cute or just plain creepy.    3. It’s time to put the coffee down…   4. I know that they are both orange, but only one if a vegetable. Don’t get confused!   5. I love this.   6. OK, if you feel like you need or want this in your car, I think it’s time you stop eating fast food altogether.   7. Such a clever picture, right?!   8. I saw these at an airport...

Doesn’t Mean You’re Healthy

Posted by on Mar 12, 2012 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Doesn’t Mean You’re Healthy

I know a lot of people that eat mainly junk food, drink soda/alcohol, never exercise, and look absolutely fabulous. Before you get too jealous, just know that it doesn’t mean everything is working in tip-top shape on the inside. “Just because you’re not sick doesn’t mean you’re healthy”  ~Author Unknown You can easily change the quote to “just because you’re not overweight…” We all know that what is going on in the inside will always manifest itself on the outside… eventually. Do what you can to eat healthy, exercise, rest well, and reduce the stress in your life. Taking good care of your overall health is something you will never regret.

Choose Health

Posted by on Dec 26, 2011 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Choose Health

Exercise is for People of ALL sizes It drives me nuts when people say that I don’t need to exercise or eat healthy because I’m already at a healthy weight. Depending on who is asking me, I’ll ask them two very important questions. 1) How do you think I became this weight? 2) How do you think I stay at this weight? I answer my own question (because usually they are still thinking about what I just asked them) and I say, “Well, it didn’t happen by accident!”. I may say it jokingly, but it’s completely true. I have to work at it, and I’m not complaining by any means, it’s just the honest truth. I have completely revamped my eating habits as well as my exercise routine and it’s made a world of difference to my overall health. Prevention...

Few Die Of Hunger…

Posted by on Nov 21, 2011 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Few Die Of Hunger…

Many more people die of their eating habits rather than the lack of food. Think about it just for a second. Many diseases are caused by us, whether it be over eating, eating all of the wrong foods, or a combination of the two. “I saw few die of hunger; of eating, a hundred thousand.” – Bejamin Franklin Yes, lack of food is a serious problem, but right now big Corporations are trying to profit from the obesity epidemic rather than truly resolve the issue. If you’d ask me, the lack of education about the food we eat and the lack of acting on that, is perhaps a bigger issue that goes unnoticed until it’s just too late. Educate yourself on what’s healthy and how much you should be eating. Don’t be afraid of the kitchen, and learn how to...

Real Wealth

Posted by on Nov 7, 2011 in Skinny Tips & Quotes | Comments Off on Real Wealth

Everyone seems to be searching for what they call “wealth”. The older I get (and yes, I know that 26 isn’t “old”, but I have learned quote a bit about health in my years…) I have come to realize that good health is one of the most valuable things. “It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.” -Gandhi Health is something that money can’t buy. Good health is something that doesn’t come to everyone, and every day we are healthy, we should be truly grateful. Don’t take it for granted. Now that you know what real wealth is, what are you doing to obtain this precious gift? Feel free to follow us, however you...
