10 Quick Nutrition Tips You Need to Follow:

Hey there, hope you’re doing awesome!

Today, I’m going to give you 10 nutrition tips you can incorporate
into your daily routine to help you achieve weight loss and fitness
success.

If you follow these tips the majority of the time you will be well
on your way to vibrant health and a smaller waistline.

Tip #1: Do It In The Raw

It is best to eat a minimum of 51% of your foods in their raw state.
Raw foods contain all of the vital nutrients your body needs to
achieve vibrant health and longevity. Cooking tends to destroy
the enzymes that raw foods contain, as well as denature the delicate
proteins, vitamins, minerals and other nutrients that are essential
to your health.

Tip #2: Beware The White Devils

If all you did was cut out all the “white devils” in your diet
you’d be WAY ahead of the game. This means no white bread, white
sugar, white salt, white rice, pasta, etc.

Tip #3: Gluten Free Is The Way To Be

After working with thousands of clients it’s become apparent
that most people have a gluten intolerance that they don’t
even know about. When they cut gluten out of their diet, their
lives completely change… for the better. More energy, joint
pain and muscle aches disappear, and…
It becomes much much easier to lose weight and inches; especially
those last few pounds around the midsection.

Tip #4: Pay Attention

Pay attention to your body. Eat when you’re body is hungry and
not for emotional reasons. And, eat until you are satisfied and
not over full. Doing this is key to achieving weight loss and
fitness success.

Tip #5: Eating Breakfast

Eating a healthy breakfast sets the tone for the rest of the day.
It’s been proven that people are more successful losing weight
when they eat a healthy breakfast. Green smoothies are the perfect
way to start the day. They are packed with nutrition and are very
easy for your body to digest.

Tip #6: Be Wary Of Dairy

Most of the dairy available is toxic to your body. And, there are
better ways to get the calcium and other nutrients found in dairy.
Most dairy, especially cheese, sabotages your weight loss and
fitness efforts.

Tip #7: How Much Meat Do You Need?

I have not eaten meat in over 8 years because of what the meat
available to us does to our bodies. I’m not asking you to be a
vegetarian or vegan like me, but it would be very good for you
to become a “flexitarian”. A flexitarian eats a mainly plant
based diet with the addition of “healthy” meats a few times per
week.

Tip #8: Your Mother Was Right

Eat more veggies. Vegetables are nutrition powerhouses. And,
they are naturally lower in calories than other foods. Be
colorful in your selection of vegetables. Variety is best.

Tip #9: It’s NOT About Calories Or Counting Points

It’s about controlling insulin levels and eating high quality food,
which are nutrient-dense in nature. Do you really believe that
someone who drank 2,000 calories of Coca-Cola, chips, and bagels
per day would look like another person who consumed 2,000 calories
of fresh vegetables, lean protein, healthy fats, and low-glycemic
carbs? I think not.

Tip #10: Don’t Diet

If dieting to you means doing something drastic for 3-4 weeks and
then just going back to eating how you used to, you need to start
with a shift in your mindset first… True health benefits and fat
loss can only be maintained through healthy lifestyle change. Begin
to look at eating healthier as something positive you’re doing for
yourself – not what you’re depriving yourself of.

Review of Delivering Happiness: A Path to Profits, Passion, and Purpose by Tony Hshieh

Delivering Happiness is a delightful book written by Tony Hsieh, CEO of the uber
successful Zappos.com.

The book is basically written in two parts…

Part 1: Chronicles the life of Tony leading up to his involvement with Zappos.com

Part 2: Chronicles the development of Zappos.com from insignificant start-up to its sale (10 years later) to Amazon.com in a deal valued at more than $1.2 billion!

A few of the credos of Zappos.com:

• Make Customer Service the entire company, not just a department.
• Focus on company culture as the #1 priority.
• Help employees grow both personally and professionally.
• Use happiness as a framework to produce profits, passion and purpose in both business and life.

I love this book not just because of the information on how to develop an extraordinary culture within an organization… there’s more to it than that.

For me, the book is a tale on how to strive for your dreams. To go for what you believe in. And, to never give up!

There are many times throughout the book when Zappos.com could have folded… gone by the wayside of dotcom blunders. But Tony Hsieh and the people at Zappos.com persevered. They knew they had something special; something worth fighting for and they did. Truly inspiring!

I really enjoyed this book! Highly recommended.

Delivering Happiness book launches June 7, 2010.
