Did P90X, Insanity or The latest Diet in a Box Work for You?

Posted on by

Weight loss requires more than a diet and exercise program. Thousands of people fail on cookie cutter diets every day. To truly achieve lasting weight loss you need a combination of different modalities customized to your needs and goals.

Question: How many of you have purchased P90X, Insanity, Diet in a Box or one of the thousands of at home do it yourself weight loss programs?

Answer: I would bet that over half of the people who read this article will raise their hand when asked this question.

The next question and answer is however the real eye opener!

Question: How many of you that said YES to the first question actually achieved the goals you set for yourself when you purchased the product?

Answer: Based on statistics and my REAL LIFE experience asking people this question, the answer will be: Less than 5% of the people who purchase these “do it yourself programs” actually achieve any results at all, much less the goal they had set.

This is not because these programs don’t work or because they are somehow misleading people with their advertisements. The reason they fail is because there is NO support, NO accountability and the person’s mindset has not changed just by purchasing the DVD set.

This same failure rate occurs with diets and cookie cutter nutrition programs. 99% of the diets and nutrition programs don’t give people the tools they need to make true changes to their lives. Most people are handed a piece of paper with a list of foods to eat and foods to avoid. This isn’t a weight loss program! This is a piece of paper that worthless to someone who truly wants to change their life and lose weight.

The nutrition and fitness components of the weight loss program are important, but they are not the most important features of a successful plan. They are just two piece of a very large and complex puzzle. In order to achieve true success with weight loss you need a combination of 5 modalities: Nutrition, Fitness, Support, Accountability and Mindset. If even one of these pieces is missing your weight loss puzzle cannot be completed.

This is what makes my programs completely different than any other weight loss plan available today! I focus on all 5 modalities and I understand how to customize the program to fit your individual needs. I work with clients all over the country and no client has the same needs! Everyone requires different levels of attention in all 5 areas.

Find a Weight loss Experts in the industry that you can actually speak with one on one! I understand that making a change is scary and that you are going to feel anxiety and fear, which is why I make myself available to all my clients. I am here to support you through your weight loss journey and help you achieve the goals you have set for yourself. Together we can accomplish any goal!

Health and Happiness,
Jay

Jay’s Homemade Healthy Protein Bars

Posted on by

I have eaten more protein bars in my lifetime than I could ever count. I use protein bars as a quick and easy way to satisfy my hunger while I am on the go. To my dislike most protein bars on the market are filled with all kinds of ingredients you can’t spell or even pronounce. Now, I can add the word healthy to “quick and easy”.

I started receiving request from my Body Fat Detox clients for the “best” protein bar for them to eat while on the program. As I thought about this request I kept coming back to the same answer, there wasn’t one! This left only one solution. I had to create one that they could make at home that was quick and easy to make and also HEALTHY!

 

Jay’s Homemade Healthy Protein Bars:

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup (or 2 scoops) of Protein Powder – VERY IMPORTANT that your protein powder is Gluten Free, Soy Free and Yeast Free – I use and recommend Elite Whey Protein
  • 1 cup of Organic Gluten Free Brown Rice Crisp (only 1 gram of sugar) recommended brand – Erewhon (I get them at Sprouts or Whole Foods)
  • 1 cup of Quinoa Flakes
  • 1/4 cup of Organic Flax Seeds
  • 2 teaspoons of Cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon of Sea Salt
  • 1/2 cup of Brown Rice Syrup
  • 1 cup of Cashew Butter
  • 2 teaspoons of Vanilla Extract
  • 1/3 cup of Dark Chocolate Chips (melted) – to make them even healthier I use 1/3 cup of Vegan Carob Chips by Sunspire instead of the chocolate
  • 1/4 cup of unsweetened Coconut Flakes (optional)

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl mix: protein powder, brown rice crisp, quinoa flakes, flax seeds, cinnamon and salt.
  2. Place brown rice syrup and cashew butter in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until warm and easily stirred. Add vanilla extract.
  3. Pour the liquid mixture over the dry ingredients and mix well with a spoon.
  4. Line a pan with wax paper and spread the mixture evenly. Lightly wet your hands and press the mixture into a thin layer.
  5. Melt the chocolate (or carob chips) in the microwave for 30 seconds – stir it – then heat for another 30 seconds. Pour the chocolate over the pressed mixture and spread evenly.
  6. Sprinkle unsweetened coconut flakes over the top of the chocolate.
  7. Place in the freeze for 10 minutes until the chocolate sets.
  8. Cut into small squares and store in the refrigerator

Nutritional Facts:
Servings: 12 to 20 depending on how large you make your squares Calories: 100 to 200 per bar depending on the size Fat: Around 10 grams per bar Protein: Around 10 to 15 grams per bar Carbohydrates: Around 15 to 30 grams per bar

 

I hope you enjoy and love these homemade protein bars as much as I do! They are 100% Body Fat Detox APPROVED. These are a great option for a mid-afternoon snack.

Health and Happiness,

Jay

Does Muscle Really Weigh More Than Fat?

Posted on by

Happy Saturday!!!

I hear this all the time when people are trying to justify their lack of weight loss. “Well I have been working out, so it possible that I have just gained muscle, because you know muscle weighs more than fat”. These people are 50% correct! Muscle does weight more than fat, but that is most liking not what is going on with you and your lack of weight loss. It is very difficult to add a pound of muscle!!! The best bodybuilders in the world struggle to add 5 pounds of muscle mass in a YEAR. With that said you have probably not gained 2 pounds of muscle in 10 days.

Even though muscle weighs more than fat, body fat takes up way more space. Notice the attached photo. 5 pounds of 5 is much larger than 5 pounds of muscle.

Here is where it gets serious! Studies show that an extra 5 pounds of body fat increases your chance of developing a serious medical condition by 35%!

Here is the solution: The Body Fat Detox

I can help you lose these extra pounds of body fat and decrease your chances of developing a major medical condition that is TOTALLY avoidable! Don’t wait until you have to lose weight, do it now while it is still your decision!

Invest in your health and yourself today! Start the Body Fat Detox program and get yourself on the path to better health. If you know someone that can benefit from this program, please share the information and help them get on the right path.

What is the Body Fat Detox

Posted on by

Jay Nixon creator of the Body Fat Detox system explains the details and benefits of the Body Fat Detox system. If you want to lose BODY FAT, have more energy, look better and be in the best shape of your life then the Body Fat Detox is perfect for you.

The Body Fat Detox is a 30 day program. You receive a 30 page guide that includes:
●Detox Food Guide
●Detox Portion Guide
●Detox Menu Guide
●Detox Supplement Guide
●Detox Supplement System
●Detox Journal
●Detox Recipe Guide

The Detox Supplement system consists of:

Detox Nutrients Packets (Promotes the metabolism of toxins)
It seems that toxic chemical exposure is everywhere – in our food, air, water, and even in the tissues of every person. Bioaccumulation of these compounds in some individuals can lead to a variety of metabolic dysfunctions, particularly to the immune, neurological, and endocrine systems of the body. Toxicity in these systems can lead to a decrease in the overall health of the system, as well as causing specific adverse effects on individual health and well-being.

Detox Nutrients Packets offer a simple and effective way to ensure your patients get the proper nutrients they need each day to help the body’s detoxification mechanisms run optimally. Detox Nutrients Packets are ideal for anyone undergoing a cleansing program. In addition, individuals on a weight-loss program, undergoing sauna therapy, or engaging in strenuous exercise can benefit from these convenient packets.

Each packet contains two capsules of the following special Thorne formulas:
Liver Cleanse is a potent combination of herbs that work synergistically to enhance the function of the liver and is specifically helpful during a comprehensive detoxification program.  The herbs in this formula enhance the production and flow of bile, which helps to optimize metabolism and the excretion of substances detoxified by the liver. Several of these herbs also provide support for the kidneys.

Toxic Relief Booster provides nutrients and botanicals for general detoxification support. This formula promotes the metabolism of toxins previously stored in fat that have been released into the bloodstream due to above activities. Toxic Relief Booster can be used alone or in conjunction with other components of a detoxification protocol.
Solvent Remover contains amino acids that support the specific liver detoxification pathways involved in solvent elimination, as well as antioxidant nutrients to help protect nerves from solvent damage. The amino acids glycine, L-glutamine, and taurine enhance the function of the liver pathways involved in solvent detoxification.  N-acetylcysteine increases the production of glutathione, an antioxidant that promotes detoxification.  Alpha-lipoic acid also increases glutathione and is neuroprotective.

Medibulk® (Important soluble fiber for a healthy GI tract)
Colonic bacteria utilize soluble fiber and other undigested carbohydrates as food and subsequently create short-chain fatty acids, which are used by the colonic mucosal cells as fuel. In turn, the short-chain fatty acids liberated by these bacteria can lower colonic pH and shorten transit time in the gastrointestinal tract, which enhances detoxification and reduces the toxic burden on the liver.  Medibulk contains psyllium, pectin, and prune powder as sources of soluble fiber.

Anaerobic fermentation of the soluble non-starch polysaccharides in psyllium results in the production of important short-chain fatty acids in the intestines. One of these fatty acids, butyric acid, is the preferred fuel for colonocytes (mucosal cells of the colon) and provides important support for a healthy colon.* In one study, subjects supplemented with 20 grams of psyllium seed daily for three months exhibited an average increase of butyric acid production of 42 percent, which decreased to pretreatment levels within two months of stopping supplementation.

Soluble fiber also has a positive impact in supporting the metabolism of cholesterol and maintaining already healthy blood sugar levels.  Other indications for supplementing with Medibulk include occasional constipation or diarrhea, the need for colon detoxification, soothing of hemorrhoids, appetite control, and support of colon health.
Prior to embarking on a detoxification program it is important to achieve optimal bowel function. Medibulk can speed transit time in the bowel and bind toxins released into the intestines from the liver, preventing their reabsorption.

VegaLite™ Protein Powder (vegan-friendly proprietary pea/rice protein blend)
VegaLite is a non-whey, vegetable-based protein powder that is low in sugar, calories, and fat. VegaLite is ideal for vegans and vegetarians, dairy-sensitive individuals, and for anyone requiring additional protein in their daily diet.  VegaLite is safe to use with children and the elderly.

VegaLite provides 23 grams of protein per serving, from an easily assimilated proprietary blend of pea and rice protein – a welcome alternative to more allergenic casein-, soy-, or egg-based protein sources.

VegaLite is available in great-tasting chocolate and vanilla flavors. VegaLite can be mixed with water, with your beverage of choice, or blended as part of a smoothie or shake.

Fiber Fights Fat!

Posted on by

Visceral fat, the fat deep in the belly surrounding vital organs, can be dangerous to overall health. Kristen Hairston, from Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center (North Carolina, USA), and colleagues urge that the way to reduce visceral fat is simple: eat more soluble fiber from vegetables, fruit and beans, and engage in moderate activity. The team completed a longitudinal study involving 1,114 men and women, in which they examined whether lifestyle factors, such as diet and frequency of exercise, were associated with a five-year change in abdominal fat, with CT scans (to measure fat) administered at the study’s start and at the conclusion. The researchers found that for every 10-gram increase in soluble fiber eaten per day, visceral fat was reduced by 3.7% over five years. When factored with the observation that increased moderate activity resulted in a 7.4% decrease in the rate of visceral fat accumulation over the same time period, the team reports that: “Soluble fiber intake and increased physical activity were related to decreased [visceral adipose tissue] accumulation over 5 years.”

2 Things you Can Do to Lose Body Fat and Gain Lean Muscle!

Posted on by

#1:  Consume 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight daily
Protein provides amino acids which are the building blocks of muscle protein.  Although mainstream nutritional guidelines recommend less than half a gram of protein per pound of body weight for the average person, research shows that athletes (everyone has an athlete in them) – especially those concerned with adding lean muscle and burning excess body fat  - need to consume at least 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight.  Beginners should try to get in 1.5 grams per pound per day for the first six months of training, since this is when your muscles will respond most rapidly.  For the 180-pounder, this means 270 grams per day at the outset and a bare minimum of 180 grams daily thereafter.

Your protein choices should be mainly animal proteins such as lean beef, chicken, eggs, fish and turkey.  Theses are the most complete protein sources, meaning they provide your body with the essential amino acids it can’t manufacture on it’s own.  I also like to use a protein supplement for help me reach my daily protein intake goals.  My protein powder of choice is Optimum Nutrition’s All Natural 100% Whey Protein.

#2:  Eat every 2-3 hours
Eating throughout the day helps you both gain lean muscle and burn fat by ensuring there’s a steady supply of energy and amino acids fueling your muscles.  The key is to keep every meal about the same size.  If you pig out with a 1,200-calorie lunch, you’ll be less likely to eat 2-3 hour later and could gain the wrong kind of weight, since excess calories are often stored a body fat.  Aim for at least six meals per day and up to eight, which the 180-pounder would mean roughly 500-600 calories per meal.
