Six Habits of a Happy, Healthy Mom


Healthy moms are not afraid to get help, and my mom agrees! As Sunday was Mother's Day, I wanted to share some tips from my favorite mom on how she remains a happy and healthy mom.

Protein Time

Nothing is more important than eating right, which means getting enough protein in their diet to nourish and protect their body, especially their bones. That’s why it’s a good idea for all moms to start their day off right with a delicious Complete Protein smoothie.

My mom's favorite smoothie recipe is the Chocolate Shake with water and ice, and get it real frothy. While chocolate may be her favorite, she likes variety and rotates between the shake flavors. Here's her simple recipe:

(2 scoops) LynFit Complete Protein Powder
(¾ cup) Water
Handful of ice
(3-4) Frozen strawberries (mom lives alone and doesn't shop much so keeping frozen strawberries in the house is a must)

Blend together and enjoy!

If mom gets really hungry, she'll have a LynFit Lean Bar with her shake to keep her energy level up.

Snack Time

Mom's favorite snack is a LynFit Chocolate Lean Bar. Sometimes she'll enjoy one with a cup of tea or hot chocolate made with LynFit Complete Protein. This guarantees she gets enough protein, plus she says it makes her hair and nails grow faster.

Movement Time

Think of movement as your exercise, so it's not a chore. While my mom hates it, she still makes sure to get in her 10,000 steps daily and at least does some type of yard work or vacuuming. And, she does keep her weights under her couch so she can lift them while watching television.

Joint Nourishment Time

My mom wakes up achy at times, so she takes LynFit Pure Omega 3 and LynFit Recovery Agent every day instead of reaching for those over-the-counter meds that jack-up her blood pressure. She says, "They make me feel too good!" In other words, I have to tell her to come in from working in the yard all day  :)

Her routine is to take (3-4) Recovery Agent (make sure to consult the label for your correct dosage) and (1) Pure Omega 3 every morning, and then again at noon when she feels it starting to wear off. She'll then take another Pure Omega 3 at bedtime to help her heal while she sleeps.

Sleep Time

My mom is a firm believer that if you sleep, you'll be merry. However, it's not always easy to sleep after menopause. The sooner you can figure out how to get your eight hours (mom says AT LEAST eight), the more delirious with joy you'll be (that's a "momism" for you).

My mom prefers natural remedies versus over-the-counter sleeping pills because she says she feels better in the morning when she wakes up, and natural remedies are always better for the body.

Lean Sleep is also a great way to improve health and wellness because it acts as an antioxidant. I always suggest combining Pure Omega 3 and Lean Sleep because it helps you sleep longer and relieves joint pain and inflammation.

Pee in Your Pants Belly Laughing Time

When your happy buzz threatens to slip away altogether, remind yourself that "this too shall pass." It works both ways: Either you get through the terrible stuff by knowing it's not forever, or you put it into perspective by reminding yourself that the good stuff—the sticky kisses and the cute little tutus—will also soon be gone. But, that IT WILL get better.

My mom is a firm believer in finding humor in everything and going out of her way to find a good belly laugh. You know the kind—the "pee in your pants" belly laugh! She'll even do something silly if that's what it takes. If nothing else, it makes us laugh at her ridiculousness. After all, for a mom, being able to share a laugh with your kids is priceless!

So, from my mom to all you moms: Get plenty of the right kind of protein, make sure your snacks are healthy, get up and move, give your body the proper nourishment, get plenty of sleep so your body can recover, and above all else, it's okay to pee your pants laugh from time to time  :)

Happy Mother's Day Week from all of us at LynFit Nutrition!

So-Called "Healthy Foods" That Can Make You Fat



Some so­-called "smart eats" are just junk food in disguise. Cut back on them, and you might just see the scale start to move again. Your thighs will certainly thank you.

Most of us know that certain foods and beverages like the Starbucks® Unicorn drink are loaded with fat and sugar. The drink is 401 calories, 16 grams of fat (10 grams saturated), 5 grams of protein, 62 grams of carbs (0 grams of fiber), and a whopping 59 grams of belly fattening sugar.

But it’s the foods we neglect to check that can be the reason our metabolism is slowing down to a screeching halt. Not to worry, the metabolism is more forgiving than you might think, and the first step is awareness of what works for weight loss and what doesn’t. In the world of weight loss, there are foods that promote weight loss and foods that block it. Here are the Sneaky diet saboteurs and the better choice. 

Of course, cutting the junk from your diet (throw it out) is the first step to weight loss, but sometimes the healthy foods you swap in are surprisingly high in fat and calories. When it comes to weight loss, especially if you're above the age 35 mark, it's not only the serving size that matters—even when it comes to fruits, nuts, yogurt, and salads but also how much sugar and fat the foods you eat contains. For more information on how many carbs, sugars, and fats you should take in when you’re trying to lose weight, refer to The Metabolism Solution.

Not only do these seemingly healthy foods block weight loss and prevent you from burning fat, but they also place you at risk for diseases like: 

    • Type 2 diabetes
    • High Blood pressure
    • Elevated triglycerides  

FOOD SIN #1

Juicing and using the wrong kind of protein shake: Not all protein shakes are created equal. In fact, most of the commercially purchased shakes are loaded with all kinds of fattening ingredients and large amounts of sugar. This liquid sugar immediately turns to fat in the liver. 

Slimming Solution
Use any one of LynFit's Complete Protein Shakes! They are the only protein shake specifically designed to nourish your body and help you lose weight. Here are a few of the benefits s you get each time to drink a LynFit Complete Protein Shake:

    • Less sugar than any other brand and low on Glycemic index 
    • Boosts metabolism by up to 25 percent
    • Promotes fat burning
    • Protects lean muscle tissue, which promotes your metabolism from slowing down
    • Block tummy fattening cortisol levels from rising
You will see and feel the difference the same day you start drinking them as long as you don't fatten them up by adding fruit or milk.

FOOD SIN #2

Assuming that all protein and cereal bars are good for weight loss = Not! Couldn’t be further from the truth.Most protein bars have more sugar fat and calories than candy bars and they don’t even fill us up.

Slimming Solution
LynFit Lean Bars! Lean bars are the best protein bar you can buy when it comes to weight loss:

    • They contain 20 grams of metabolic boosting protein
    • Less sugar than any other bar on the market yet has 20 grams of prebiotic belly fat-burning fiber that makes you feel full and balances blood sugar levels that are responsible for your cravings.
If you want to lose weight and burn fat as well as control hunger and cravings, eat a Lean Bar every day at 2-3 p.m., and you’ll coast right through to dinner time without picking.

Here's my little secret -- Even if I end up eating two Lean Bars, I wind up eating less and most importantly, I feel satisfied. 

If you haven’t tried Lean Bars, and you're trying to lose weight, swap your current protein bar for a Lean bar for seven days and watch what happens. Please share your experience; we wanna know.

FOOD SIN #3

Nuts! Nuts are a great food, but most people aren't aware of how may they eat or how many calories they really contain. We wind up overeating on them, which blocks weight loss. Most of us think, “I'll only have few,” but when it comes to nuts, that tiny handful can add up to more calories than you think.

One ounce of nuts (6-10 small almonds) is at least 100 calories and 14 grams or more of fat. Each time you grab a handful, you're eating 100 calories a pop and 14 grams of fat, and your daily total is 20 grams of fat, maximum. 

So you can see that little handful is all it takes to go overboard with calories and fat, and that affects our weight loss. Yet, unless you journal every bite you take, you won’t know. If you bite it write it down! You'll soon see where your calories are coming from. My recommendation?  Grab a Lean Bar instead. You’ll get more nutrients, fiber, and you'll also be more satisfied.

FOOD SIN #4

The unsuspecting avocado. Yes, it’s a good-for-you fat, but all fats need to be limited because they are very high-calorie. Each gram of fat you eat has nine calories, and when we start eating avocados, we aren’t thinking, “what's a serving?” We just eat what's put in front of us, and that’s where the trouble starts.

The average woman eats a medium avocado that contains 322 calories and a whopping 29 grams of fat. That’s way over our daily 20-gram budget and BAM! That healthy food blocks weight loss again. 

A serving of avocado is one (1) tbsp., which is 94 calories. So if you opt to eat the avocado, skip the dressing, or your weight loss will suffer.

Remember my rule of thumb; when in doubt, don’t eat it. All you have to do is hit the Google bar and ask how much fat does a medium avocado have, and you'll quickly have your answer. You’ll get conflicting numbers, but you'll get an estimate, and it may stop you from messing up your weight loss plan.  

Imagine what would happen if you committed all four sins in one day. My advice? Stick to the Lose 1 Pound Per Day Plan until you reach your goal weight. Be religious about following it and check the food list provided before eating any foods. If you don’t see it on the list, it's not good for weight loss. It's just that simple.

Following a plan like the Lose 1 Pound Per Day Plan works better than any other diet you'll ever try because there is no thinking, planning, or counting calories, which make losing weight faster and easier, leaving you more time to live your life. It's also the most nourishing and healthy for your body. And with health, anything is possible!

Leaner, Stronger, Healthier Moms

Being a mom means caring for others, which usually means we either miss meals or end up grabbing what's handy and eating the wrong things and neglect our health.

Moms need to make their health the number one priority in order to effectively take care of everyone else and set a good example for their kids. Often, this lack of self-care causes us to gain weight, have elevated blood sugar, cholesterol, and blood pressure levels. Moms, there are simple solutions (invite your daughter to join you, or heck, ask your whole family; might as well get everyone healthy).

I'm sure you've told your family to "eat your veggies." It's good advice for you too. Diets that are rich in vegetables may reduce the risk of cancer and other chronic diseases. 

While veggies are important to provide essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber, there is one nutrient that women are severely lacking, and it's the MOST important nutrient. Can you guess what it is? Protein, Protein, Protein! That's why woman struggle with: 

    • Hunger and cravings
    • Moodiness
    • Lack of energy
    • Sleep deprivation
    • Brittle bones
    • Weak muscles
    • Hormonal imbalances
    • Constipation that affects weight loss

The truth is, most of us moms (myself included) are so busy taking care of everyone else that we forget all about ourselves. For me, this led to a lot of anxiety and depression, and I couldn't get out of the vicious cycle that led me to gain 40 pounds.

I exercised every day; in fact, I over exercised. I just couldn't get my food clean until I had/found the right tools that made taking care of myself fast and easy, allowing me more time for my kids and more energy to keep up with them. Now they can barely keep up with me!

Here are the problems moms face, and the tool (slimming solution) recommended by other moms to help bust out of that rut and start taking care of yourself for a healthy change.

    • No time to eat or prepare healthy food:
      "This is where LynFit Complete Protein Shakes come in. I drink two shakes (or eat LynFit Lean Bars) daily to provide my body with the protein it needs to keep me healthy and energized, balance blood sugar, and improve my mood while safely boosting my metabolism by up to 25 percent." - Janine

      Janine
      • Cravings for sweets and the wrong types of food:
        "I threw all the junk food out of the house and replaced it with LynFit Lean Bars." - Roz

        Roz
      • Mood swings and lack of energy cause you to reach for food for a fast boost: 
        "I take one (1) LynFit Accelerator Advanced and one (1) LynFit Cutting Edge for nourishing B Vitamins and herbs that help keep me feeling great and on-plan." - Teresa

        Teresa
      • Lack of sleep and aches and pains taking over your life: 
        "I take one (1) LynFit Lean Sleep and one (1) LynFit Pure Omega 3 and I now sleep soundly and my aches and pains are gone." - Cece

        Cece
        • Hot flashes and a sluggish thyroid making you feel awful and wrecking your health:
          "My friend told my about LynFit Thyro-Boost, and now I take it religiously twice daily. My doctor can't believe the change!" - Lisa

          Lisa

        Moms, we need to put our own oxygen mask on in order to take care of everyone else effectively. The best way to do that is to invest in the right tools!

        We want to hear from you and celebrate your success with you. Please feel free to send us your story, along with before and after photos, to Support@LynFit.com. We are here for you every step of the way!

        BELIEVE. BEGIN. BECOME.

        Introducing the LynFit Egg White Protein!

        LynFit Nutrition's metabolic boosting Complete Protein line is even better with the addition of two new Egg White flavors: Clean Cocoa and Pure Vanilla. This is the perfect addition to your plan if you're struggling to lose weight or require a dairy-free source of protein. 

        Egg whites have a reputation for:

          • Helping to reduce body fat
          • Tightening and toning loose, saggy skin
          • Preserving and protecting lean muscle tissue
          • Killing hunger and cravings
          • Improving digestion
          • Reducing acidic conditions in the body
          • Balancing blood sugar levels
          • Diabetic-friendly

        What makes LynFit Egg White Protein different from all the rest? 

        LynFit Egg White Protein is an all-natural whole food powdered egg white that comes from non-GMO eggs, sourced exclusively from U.S. farms. The fresh eggs are processed into a powder in under one day to retain the highest nutritional value. All vital nutrients are retained in their purest form along with a complete amino acid profile.

          • All-natural
          • 100% bio-available (usable by the body)
          • 3 grams of pure protein per serving
          • Only 100 calories per serving
          • A minimum of 317mg of potassium per serving
          • Only four ingredients: Non-GMO egg whites, Papain, Protease (digestive enzymes), Stevia
          • Sourced exclusively from U.S. farms
          • Eggs processed in under one day to maintain highest nutritional value
          • No added flavors or colors
          • 25 grams of protein
          • Contains all nine essential amino acids plus four non-essential
          • Soy-free
          • Gluten-free
          • Dairy-free
          • A most excellent protein source

        Why is LynFit Egg White Protein better for weight loss?

        To start with, it's pure, natural, and all protein. That means there are virtually no carbs, no fat, and no cholesterol. So the carbs, fats, and cholesterol you save help boost your metabolism and jump-start your weight loss. It is simply the complete form of protein, standing head and shoulders above the rest. 

        Since egg white protein is non-dairy and lactose-free, it's a better option for those who are lactose sensitive.

        How much protein should you consume every day?  

        The average person requires one (1) gram of protein per pound of lean body weight per day. Example: If you weigh 150 pounds, but you have 25 pounds of fat to lose (thin goal weight), your lean body weight would be 125 pounds. That means you require 125 grams of protein per day. If you're trying to lose weight, the leaner, the better.  

        When it comes to weight loss and boosting metabolism, it's better to spread this protein throughout the day, so your body uses it vs. storing it. For example, if you eat five meals per day you would aim to have 25 grams of protein at each meal to nail your 125 grams per day of protein. 

        What if you're doing the metabolic boosting plan to encourage your body to shed fat?

        No worries. Simply use the egg white protein for 1-2 of your meals each day, so your body gets a variety of protein sources. This will help to boost your metabolism, and if you feel your body needs more protein, add a shake. 

        Unlike foods like chicken breast, LynFit shakes won't slow weight loss the way overeating other sources can due to the higher calories and fats they contain.
        *NOTE: Using different types of metabolic boosting proteins is best for boosting a sluggish metabolism and helps break up the monotony.  

        Rapid weight loss and daily exercise places demands on the body. It's better to have too much of this type of protein vs. not enough so your skin stays tight and your body stays nourished. Protein is the building block of muscle, preventing body fat formation, stopping weight gain, and encouraging weight loss. 

        Consuming the right amount of protein is the best way to nourish hair, skin, and nails. Egg white protein (all LynFit proteins) are perfect sources of protein for all types of diets, including gastric bypass. From chemotherapy patients to kids, world class athletes to bodybuilders, and everyone in between.  

        What's the best way to use LynFit Egg White Protein?

        Drink it in a smoothie. No matter what you mix it with you won't taste the egg whites. They have a deliciously smooth texture that is very different from whey, so you may have to experiment with your usual recipes to master egg whites.

        Bake with it. You can also cook and bake with the egg white protein. In fact, for any recipe that calls for egg whites, you can use the egg white powder by reconstituting it. Cooking and baking burn off part of the protein, but as long as you're not consuming the egg whites cooked for every meal, you shouldn’t have to worry about it. 

        Reconstituting your egg white protein powder makes it just like the liquid egg whites we all cook and bake with. You could even make an omelet with it if you'd like. Reconstituting egg whites is as simple as adding some warm water to you your egg white powder. Most of the time 2-3 tablespoons per scoop of powder is all it takes.  

        Here's another idea: Add it to your coffee for a protein-packed, on-the-go, metabolic boosting breakfast!

        Can't get enough protein into your kids? Mix one (1) scoop into their milk, pour over cereal or make them a smoothie. Kids also love egg white protein made into scrambled chocolate egg whites with strawberries on top.

        Use your imagination. Wherever you see whey you can substitute egg whites instead. The texture may be different but the protein is still great.

        Super Bowl Survival Without Gaining a Pound

        Super Bowl Survival
        Surviving the Super Bowl without gaining a pound isn't as difficult as you might think.

        While there are many different weight loss solutions out there, the best way to combat weight gain is to boost your metabolism. By boosting your metabolic engine you'll be burning more calories by the time you walk into your Super Bowl party or indulge from your couch. And, those not-so-healthy calories won't show up on your scale the morning after.

        Boosting your metabolism for the Super Bowl requires a three-step metabolic gameplan — boost at breakfast and again at lunch for maximum prevention; then again pre-game (30 minutes or one hour prior to game time).

        METABOLIC BOOST #1: YOUR FIRST DOWN PLAY

        Boost your metabolism the morning of and the morning after by drinking a LynFit Metabolic Boosting Whey Protein Shake, made with water and ice, exactly 12 hours after your last meal. Save on calories by flavoring your shake with non-caloric ingredients like vanilla or coconut extracts or black coffee. But don't add fruit, milk or juices as they will spike your blood sugar and make it easier to gain weight. You don't need any additional calories so save yourself the trouble and keep your shake simple.

        I'd recommend trying the LynFit Energizer Protein Shake. I know you'll love it! I enjoy eating the froth with a spoon for a little trick play. Additionally, drinking a LynFit Complete Protein Shake blocks cortisol levels from rising, which can cause weight gain. The Super Bowl can be stressful enough as is without adding more stress to it.

        The Energizer Protein Shake

        With your morning LynFit Complete Protein Shake, take these supplements to turn off the weight gain switch:

        METABOLIC BOOST #2: YOUR SECOND DOWN PLAY

        At brunch/lunch on game day, repeat your first down play by drinking a LynFit Complete Protein Shake made with water and ice and take these supplements:

        • (1) LynFit Accelerator
        • (1) LynFit Carb Edge
        • (1) LynFit Cutting Edge

          NOTE: If you're taking LynFit Accelerator Advanced, take that instead of the LynFit Accelerator and LynFit Carb Edge

        GAME-CHANGING METABOLIC BOOST #3: YOUR THIRD DOWN SCORING PLAY

        In football, the third down play is the most critical. And with your Super Bowl Survival, it's no different. This is the money down. It's time to go for the score.

        One hour before kickoff, or before you leave for your party, hit repeat and drink a LynFit Complete Protein Shake with water and ice and take these supplements:

        • (1) LynFit Accelerator
        • (1) LynFit Carb Edge
        • (1) LynFit Cutting Edge

          NOTE: If you're taking LynFit Accelerator Advanced, take that instead of the LynFit Accelerator and LynFit Carb Edge

        By following this Super Bowl survival gameplan you are protecting yourself from weight gain as well as enhancing your health. It's like eating a little more but absorbing a little less.

        You can add in a little flea-flicker play to catch the opponent (weight gain) off guard as well. Take 2–3 LynFit Raspberry Ketone Cleanse right before you start eating. You'll wake up feeling less bloated and you'll be right on track with your weight loss. Hit replay the next morning and you're set up for success.

        As with any hard-fought game, the morning after may require some recovery. Try my LynFit Fat-Melting Flat White Complete Protein Shake for a fast recovery for a food or alcohol hangover.

        Eat, Drink, and Stay Healthy Naturally!

        Eat, Drink & Stay Healthy Naturally

        'Tis the season of overdoing it, and that usually means we end up getting sick. We seem to be exhausted all the time, and that almost always means we gain weight.

        If you want to avoid getting sick this year, and you're determined not to gain weight, I've got great news for you — it's possible! All you have to do is let Mother Nature lend a helping hand. Throw out those metabolism-slowing, immune-killing, quick fixes and turn to your natural medicine cabinet instead. Plus, natural remedies aren't as likely to damage your liver and kidneys.

        From aches and pains to low energy to just giving your metabolism the boost it needs to help you keep off those holiday pounds, even when you're not perfect — remember, a healthier life is a happier life. And, prevention is the best cure.

        If you were to come over to my house and complain of an ailment or your child got an injury while visiting, you might be surprised to see me open up my medicine cabinet and proceed to pull out various natural remedies. After all, it's no secret that I have a love affair for alternative, natural treatments, and have been studying them for the past 25+ years.

        Recently, a friend was asking me what I do when I get aches and pains, among other things. I rattled off some suggestions and talked about the things I keep in my home and use on a regular basis. She was amazed to learn that everything we put into our bodies has either a negative or positive effect on us — especially when it comes to losing weight and boosting metabolism.

        She was also shocked to learn that some of the things we do every day can impair healing, which isn't good for aches and pains in the long run or slow down our metabolism, often causing weight gain or making it difficult to lose weight.

        In a short speech, any medicine that says "anti" on the label can slow our metabolism and even affect liver and kidney functions over time. 

        If you have a problem, LynFit Nutrition has a solution. Safe (safety should always come first) all-natural vitamins, minerals, and other supplements, naturally inspired and perfected by LynFit Nutrition. We help fix what ails you.

        Some people never seem to catch "it." And, chances are, those same people are ones who use natural ways to stay away from those pesky viruses that prey on our weaknesses (like eating too much sugar when we're tired).

        Research has shown that healthy habits, naturally supporting the immune system, can dramatically reduce "catching a cold." And, should you happen to catch a "bug," these same strategies can help in reducing the severity of symptoms. 

        DEFENSIVE DIET

        Choosing a clean, metabolic boosting diet is the number one strategy for staying healthy, combatting the common cold, and alleviating aches and pains. Doing so will boost your immune system and reduce inflammation, helping you to recover more quickly.

        A clean, metabolic boosting diet means eating only real, whole foods — the way nature intended. 

        The priority when it comes to eating healthy is to Power Your Immunity with Protein. It's critical to have at least one LynFit Complete Whey Protein Shake per day to feed and nourish your body. Doing so will also keep weight gain away.

        The high-quality whey LynFit Nutrition uses in its Complete Protein Shakes and Lean Bars is the purest that can be found. While it boosts your metabolism, it also helps to boost your immunity as well. LynFit Nutrition Whey Protein is an excellent source of calcium, and calcium helps to lower blood sugar levels while building healthier, stronger bones. 

        Each time you eat a LynFit Lean Bar you're getting one-third of your daily protein and fiber from a prebiotic source that will help to keep you regular and your gut healthy. They taste delicious and come in handy for those moments when you need comfort food. There simply is no other protein bar like it!

        My personal Lean Bar favorite is Chewy Chocolate. It tastes like a Tootsie Roll® without the sugar. Sometimes, I'll twist it together with peanut butter — "You got peanut butter on my chocolate........." Just sayin....

        Choose fresh vegetables and some citrus fruits, being mindful to stay away from powdered veggie products, juices and juicing, and canned or processed options due to them causing a spike in blood sugar levels. These spikes are awful for aches and pains and cause weight gain. They also lower your resistance by weakening your immunity. 

        When it comes to fruits and veggies, it's best to eat the real thing. Your body will burn more calories in the digestion process. If you're trying to lose weight, stick to 1–2 servings of fruit per day, max, even if you're sick.

        These healthy habits below will also help to keep you feeling full, so you don't overeat on the wrong kinds of food when temptation is at its peak.

        • Add plenty of natural herbs and spices to your meals, such as garlic and thyme
        • Use a mixed blend of cold pressed herbs instead of butter and saturated fats
        • Include lean, fresh, metabolic boosting proteins/meats (in addition to your Protein Shakes and/or Lean Bars). Free-range and organic are best, and watch your portion sizes. A serving size should be the size of a small deck of cards. 

        Stay away from processed foods (this includes processed store-bought protein bars and shakes — you'll always get what you pay for), sugars, and most carbs. They will spike blood sugar levels and switch the pain switch on. Most contain additives that weaken our immune system. The best rule of thumb is to follow my LynFit Nutrition Plans and Resources for the cleanest eating possible.

        And don't forget that you can find over 100 delicious, thermogenic recipes in my book, The Metabolism Solution.

        LEAN SLEEP

        Getting enough rest is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. It will help your body heal, regulate your metabolism, and kill hunger and cravings. 

        Instead of reaching for drugs to improve sleep, swap out the nighttime medicines that clog your liver and negatively affect your weight loss with LynFit Lean Sleep. You'll have the best night's sleep ever, and it won't harm your health or slow your metabolism. 

        LynFit Lean Sleep contains the perfect amount of melatonin to help you sleep without feeling groggy when you wake up. Lean Sleep is a proven regulator of brown fat that helps you burn more calories all day long. So you'll melt off belly fat — even while you sleep. So don't go to bed without taking 1–2 LynFit Lean Sleep (if you're struggling, you can take up to three per night). 

        Before bedtime, be sure to:

        • Avoid foods and drinks containing caffeine
        • Avoid alcohol in the evenings
        • Eat dinner earlier in the evening to allow for optimal digestion
        • Turn off the television and anything that has bright lights before bedtime to help you relax (this includes tablets and phones)
        • Avoid stress at all costs
        • Do your workouts earlier in the day vs. later. You'll sleep better and burn more fat.

        BOOST YOUR THYROID

        Your thyroid produces hormones which regulate your body's metabolic rate as well as heart and digestive function, muscle control, brain development, and bone maintenance. It's imperative that we keep it in optimal functioning condition. LynFit Nutrition to the rescue with LynFit Thyro-Boost.

        Thyro-Boost is a sophisticated blend loaded with more than a dozen adaptogenic herbs and natural ingredients. Adding herbs and natural supplements are a simple yet powerful way to boost the immune system, helping us to avoid colds, decrease inflammation (underlying cause of pain), and reduce hot flashes.

        What is an adaptogenic herb? Herbs that are known as adaptogens are a unique group of ingredients used to improve the health of the adrenal system — the system in charge of managing your body's hormonal response to stress. This includes the thyroid, which is highly sensitive to stress. That's why when you're stressed it's harder to lose weight and more prone to getting sick.

        Think your thyroid is fine and you don't need a little support? Think again. When it comes to your health, everyone needs this support in their personal medicine cabinet. You can read an in-depth summary of the benefits of LynFit Thyro-Boost here, and I'm sure you'll agree that it's a much-needed support that everyone needs.

        YOUR DAILY VITAMIN D REQUIREMENT

        During the winter months, it is very common to become deficient in Vitamin D, regardless of where you live. Taking the time to go out into the sun regularly will help the body create this essential nutrient naturally if your system is working correctly. 

        If it isn't, or you aren't spending enough time outdoors (I say even if you are), it's important to take LynFit Vitamin D3 Boost, a high-quality vitamin D supplement that will help you get the vitamin D your body needs, along with an extra dose of immune health boosting blends. 

        By taking two (2) LynFit Vitamin D3 Boost daily, you'll not only keep your bones strong, but you'll also help fight off the common cold or at a minimum, shorten the duration of it. 

        THE WAY NATURE INTENDED

        Sure, Tylenol® and other over-the-counter drugs might seem like a good idea, but what you don't know may hurt your health and make the pain last longer. These types of drugs may inhibit your body's healing process vs. helping it. Go natural instead, the way nature intended.

        So, what's in that natural medicine cabinet I'd open if you came to my home and you had aches, pains, and ailments? You'd find LynFit Complete Shakes, Lean Bars, Lean Sleep, Thyro-Boost, and Vitamin D3 Boost. Simply put, you'd find your answer for how to eat, drink, and stay healthy!

        Getting Back On Track With Your Weight Loss



        When it comes to weight loss, "tomorrow" is the most dangerous word in the English language. If you're serious about losing weight, and not seeing the results you'd like, it's time to stop living the way you've been living. The price you pay is very high for the cheap thrill that food gives you. In the end, it might even cost you your health. How you're living today directly affects your tomorrow. So, what will you do differently?

        I receive emails seeking advice, all too often, from people with a habit of doing a week or two of strict, metabolic boosting eating and then falling off the weight loss wagon into a pile of cookies or store-bought protein bars. They want to know what they can do to stick to the plan, or should they even try. The first thing I tell them is the reason most people fall is that they think they need to be perfect with their eating. It's important to understand that perfection does not exist. 

        Most of us fall because we become too legalistic about our diets. Rather, our diets should be treated as a habit of making better choices, requiring us to decide what our actions will be. This makes us responsible for our actions, and the outcomes.

        You know the old saying; "If you keep doing what you've always done you'll just keep getting the same results. To expect anything different is the very definition of insanity." Quite honestly, there is a lot of insanity surrounding the foods that will keep you from reaching your goals. 

        Have you ever told yourself; "I'll just have a little"? Sorry to say it, but that little bit is what's stopping you from reaching your goals. 

        It's at these very times to remind yourself that perfection does not exist. Focus on daily progress, not daily perfection. You have more control than you think when it comes to making food choices. But if you keep falling off the wagon, it's possible you may need a few tools to help keep you on track.

        These tools make losing weight faster and easier because they:

          • Help kill hunger and cravings that cause you to fall off-plan
          • Boost metabolism by 25 percent, so you burn more calories all day long, even while asleep. This is especially important when you decide to go off-plan because it will help keep you from gaining weight.
          • Block cortisol (stress hormones) levels from rising, which helps prevent weight gain in the belly, hips, and thighs. Blocking cortisol is more important than you think. Stress causes your body to produce excess cortisol levels, and the only way to melt belly fat is by reducing these levels. It's not an easy job and the very reason you need to attack belly fat with a 1, 2, 3 punch.

        STEP #1: BOOST METABOLISM AND BLOCK CORTISOL LEVELS

        Drink a LynFit Complete Protein Shake 12 hours after your last meal. Do not add fruit or any type of milk if you're trying to lose a pound a day. Remember, it's all about replacements and better choices, so swap out your high-sugar juice or yogurt for this instead. 

        Looking for a delicious shake recipe that will not only tantalize your taste buds but rev up your metabolism as well? Look no further — here's my Melt Belly Fat Birthday Cake Smoothie:

        (3 scoops) LynFit Vanilla Complete Whey Protein Powder
        (½ cup) Water
        (3–4) Ice cubes

        Throw it all in the blender and mix until smooth and then drink yourself thin. The extra protein used will help keep you feeling fuller longer and won't spike blood sugar levels the way fruit and milk will.

        STEP #2: KILL HUNGER AND CRAVINGS

        Belly fat makes you hungrier, so the faster you lose it; the faster you'll be able to lose overall weight. You need to flip the hunger switch off and trick your body into acting like a thin person by teaching and encouraging it to burn fat for fuel instead of overwhelming you with hunger pangs. 

        This is where the smart use of safe supplements comes in. If you don't struggle with hunger and cravings, you may not need supplements. But if you've been trying to lose weight, and no matter what you do you can't seem to stay on track because of hunger pangs and cravings, then you may need a little outside help.

        Taking a supplement stack is the best way to keep your metabolism from slowing down while killing cravings and hunger pangs. This makes it easier to stay on track with your weight loss. The secret is they balance blood sugar levels while providing natural energy. 

        This particular stack teaches your body how to burn fat as fuel when it needs energy vs. sending you hunger signals. Your metabolism will become a high-efficiency fat burning machine. Trust me, if you skip them, you'll see and feel the difference. 

        The best time to take this stack is three hours after your last meal, when your body starts yelling, "I'm hungry!"

        Sip green tea instead of indulging yourself in your usual snack and take your supplements to balance blood sugar levels instead. 

        One note — This step is not good for people with less than 10 percent body fat because they will burn muscle for fuel instead of fat. But if you have body fat to lose you have energy stored that can be used instead.

        Here is your supplement stack:
        • LynFit Accelerator with Raspberry Ketones to accelerate the process and trick your body into acting like a thin person. A lean person will burn fat more efficiently. (If you're highly sensitive to caffeine you may want to skip the Accelerator. The stack will still give you what you need, so follow the steps without Accelerator.)
        • LynFit Carb Edge with Forskolin to help enhance thyroid function and balance blood sugar levels, which is the secret to killing your cravings and managing hunger.
        • LynFit Cutting Edge to force your body to burn off that stubborn body fat for fuel.

          STEP #3: AVOID THE AFTERNOON ENERGY CRASH TO ESCAPE CRAVINGS BEFORE THEY BEGIN

          This step is critical because it will not only boost your metabolism, it will also help fight off those emotional cravings that we all battle in the afternoon when we start to get tired and our blood sugar levels begin to rise.

          This is actually where most people fall off the weight loss wagon. But, it's also where your weight loss battle can be won. I call this the "Emo Meal" — meaning emotional, when you're hungry, tired, and craving food.

          PREVENTION is the cure, so grab a LynFit Lean Bar to defeat the afternoon energy crash.

          The LynFit Lean Bar has 10 grams of prebiotic fiber and 15 grams of protein to kill cravings before they begin while helping to keep you feeling full. LynFit Lean Bars are guaranteed to be the best tasting protein bar you've ever tried and #1 in its class when it comes to weight loss and melting belly fat. Try one; you'll see.

          Most store-bought bars are full of sugar and don't supply your body with the right type or amount of protein. They spike blood sugar levels and prevent you from losing weight, despite what their labels may claim.

          Make LynFit Lean Bars your go-to comfort food from now on when trying to lose weight. Comfort in knowing you're making a smart, nutrient-dense food choice that doesn't sacrifice delicious taste and texture.  LynFit Lean Bars are the best of both worlds — they don't leave you with any guilt, only satisfaction that you'll begin to crave. You can eat your new comfort meal food with pride and get on with your day.

          This will be especially important if you're an emotional eater. Choosing the wrong kinds of snack foods can increase hunger and cravings and turn the weight gain switch on. Swap out those store-bought protein bars with a LynFit Lean Bar instead.

          Should you find yourself unable to suppress the urge to eat junk food, adopt the 80/20 rule. You're already following it; you just don't know it. 

          For the most part, you're eating your favorite foods every couple of weeks — it's inevitable. It's going to happen, and you should expect it. So, the best solution is to plan it ahead of time. If you plan for it ahead of time, you can cheat and still lose weight. Have a little pep talk with yourself. Sit down and tell yourself to try the 80/20 plan. 

          On the Advanced Metabolic Boosting Meal Plan, you can eat on plan 80 percent of the time and go off the plan 20 percent of the time and still lose weight. That's the beauty of this plan. In fact, this is the only plan that takes into consideration that you live in the real world, you're human, and that you cheat once in a while.

          Planning in advance when you cheat also puts you in control of the binge vs. the binge controlling you. It also changes how you emotionally respond to a binge—no guilt, because it's all a part of your weight loss plan. You'll accept the situation, not struggle in vain against it. You'll eat less and know exactly what to eat, and how much. The scale will go up slightly, but you'll be back on track in no time. 

          Although there are physiological consequences to binging on junk food, I'd wager that most of the damage comes from the stress we inflict on ourselves—the internal fight and refusal, which only causes us to binge more. The refusal to accept the inevitable situation, combined with the guilt and shame you're piling on yourself for losing that fight.

          Here's what the 80/20 plan get you: Acceptance! You learn to accept things you cannot change. You're no longer fighting a battle you most likely cannot win. 

          I can't think of anything harder or more stressful than struggling with food. I've struggled with it my entire life until I learned about the 80/20 rule. 

          You can live guilt-free. Guilt about eating junk food can actually cause you to gain weight and depress your immune system. By making a plan to "go off" for a meal as an occasional (1–2 times weekly) deviation from your regular schedule, rather than betraying your body, you remove the guilt. Make a plan, if you plan on losing.

          I would encourage you to read this article I wrote previously about how to cheat and still lose weight to keep your metabolism in full swing, and how if you don't, it can alter the physiological effect it has on you. 

          As Kelly Clarkson says in her song: "Think Before You Cheat" so you don't hurt your health or destroy a month's worth of dieting. Most of the time it's not worth it anyway. 

          So, eat happily, just don't' forget to boost first! 

          Faster, Easier Weight Loss Tips To Lose Weight & Melt Belly Fat

          There's one specific reason why getting results quickly is always beneficial — It motivates you to go further.

          It doesn't matter if you're looking to lose fat, build muscle, improve posture, or just improve your health in general. If you're putting effort into something and not seeing any measurable results within a week, it can take away any motivation you have to keep going.

          Whenever I'm coaching or meeting with clients, I always start with "the talk" about making long-term lifestyle changes in their nutrition and exercise routine. That is the only way to guarantee long-term results. The truth is, for some, that first week can be a make-or-break timeframe. After all, it's only human to think that if something isn't working, then why should we continue to do it.

          Most of us fall victim to that trap. We quit within a week or two, but then we get right back on the next diet or workout plan that comes along—only to once again fail to see quick results. This yo-yo "on again-off again" is one of the hardest habits to break. Truth be told, unless you're willing to make a lasting lifestyle change, you will never see a change. 

          I'm just like you are—looking for that instant gratification. I want to taste that initial success. It's that initial gratification that keeps me going for the long haul, to make that long-term commitment. 

          With that being said, I'm going to show you, step-by-step, how you can lose 7 pounds in 7 days......if you follow the plan. Martha Stewart refers to this as "Lisa Lynn Brainwashing." This plan has become the first thing I send to new clients, allowing them to see results faster and easier. It's nothing new, and you've probably seen it before. But this time, instead of just reading through it, act on it.

          You'll need the Advanced Metabolic Boosting Lose 1 Pound Per Day Meal Plan and Food List (this plan also comes with the LynFit Lose 1 Pound Per Day Kit). You should also have the LynFit Protein Shake Recipes readily available.

          For metabolic boosting workouts, you should have the Metabolic Boosting Workout for Weight Loss and Fat Blasting DVD (included for a limited time in the LynFit Lose 1 Pound Per Day Kit). You may also download it from LynFit.com. This workout will help to tighten and tone your body as you lose weight.

          You'll need at least one of the following meal replacements because you'll be replacing two meals daily for faster weight loss. Use of LynFit products specifically will help to keep your metabolism from slowing down while you decrease caloric intake. Vegan and other products are not guaranteed to do this due to their lack of amino acids. They also contain a high sugar concentration that will do nothing to help you in your weight loss. So for the best results, use only LynFit products. Your health and weight loss depends on it.
          NOTE: You may use LynFit Lean Bars instead of LynFit Complete Protein Shakes, or a combination of the two, to beat boredom. It's important to note, however, that the two-shake daily plan is the fast road to weight loss. If you prefer to go slower, you can have the shake or lean bar for breakfast and a lean protein from the list with a salad for lunch.

          These products naturally and safely boost your metabolism and make it easier to lose weight. They are irresistibly delicious, so you'll start to crave the right things. An added benefit is they also nourish your hair, skin, and nails.

          Do you have to use supplements?

          No, supplements aren't required, but research shows that the smart use of safe, high-quality supplements can boost your results, helping you lose twice as much weight in ½ the time.

          For 28+ years I've been suggesting that my clients use the following supplement stack for the best results. More importantly, it ensures that your body stays healthy, because losing weight can be stressful, and you live in the real, stressful world.

            Every home needs a natural medicine cabinet and with the products above you can't find a better way to protect your health. At LynFit, we believe prevention is the best solution, and it's better to address the underlying issues than to simply remove symptoms without dealing with the root cause.

            What are the metabolic boosting workouts mentioned above?

            You're expecting amazing results, and you'll get just that, especially if you can put in 30 minutes every day for the next seven days. You're guaranteed to be tighter, more toned and flexible. All you need is the willingness to change.

            Don't have 30 minutes? Do 10 or 15 minutes at one time and then go back later to complete the remaining 30 minutes. Do what you can, when you can. Studies prove that even one minute of this specific type of exercise can help you become more fit. All I ask is that you do your best, for yourself.

            Find it too hard? Go at your own pace. Everyone starts the same way. Go slow, do modified or smaller moves, rest as needed, and use lighter weights. If all else fails, choose one exercise that you'll do every day.

            The Accelerated Metabolic Boosting Workout is different in that it uses a technique we professionals use. It pushes you more frequently than you would normally train. That's one reason you need to use supplements the way professionals do. I've been using it for 25+ years to transform the toughest bodies and create sensational before and afters that changes lives for the better.

            Here's the plan (follow along with the LynFit Leaner Lifestyle Metabolic Workout for Weight Loss and Fat Blasting DVD):

              • Day 1: Metabolic boost
              • Day 2: Fat blaster
              • Day 3: Lean core
              • Day 4: Metabolic boost
              • Day 5: Recovery stretch
              • Day 6: Fat blaster
              • Day 7: Recovery stretch or Walk 10,000 steps

            It's always best to walk at least 10,000 steps daily, in addition to your weight work. The more effort you put in, the better your results will be.

            NOTE: Prefer to refer to photos instead? The Accelerated Metabolic Boosting Workout and stretches can be found in "The Metabolism Solution" book. Don't have one? We can send you one—just ask.

            LynFit believes prevention is the best solution, and it's better to address the underlying issues than to simply remove symptoms without dealing with the cause. That's why we use only the highest pharmaceutical quality ingredients, so you see and feel results fast. My whole family uses these products. If they aren't safe enough to give to my mother and kids, I won't sell them! 

            Keep in mind that to get extra special results it's going to take an extra special dose of everything you've got. So it's going to require you to make the decision right now to BELIEVE. BEGIN. BECOME. Commit yourself to 7-days, 7-pound weight loss. After all, all you have to lose is weight!

            Need a little extra motivation? The favorite part of what I do is seeing people, just like yourself, succeed. Real people, living in the real world, achieving real results. I'd like to introduce you to a couple of them.

             

            Janine

            This is Janine — Janine is a 50-year old busy mom of two. She lost 90 pounds, but more importantly, she became symptom-free of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). Prior to losing weight, in addition to the RA, Janine struggled with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, depression, sleep apnea, edema, Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction, sciatica, osteopenia, and peripheral neuropathy. While never diagnosed as a diabetic, it was only a matter of time.

            On 10/15/13, her doctor wrote "STOPPED" next to ten drugs she was taking for the above conditions, and "STOPPED" on all narcotic combinations for the above. She is now in her second year of remission from all.

            Brianna

            And, this is Brianna — Brianna's story is opposite from most of our weight loss stories. She needed to muscle up and keep fat from being stored. Brianna needed to gain 30 pounds of lean muscle. We accomplished this by increasing her diet, and changing it to a thermogenic "low-low" (low fat and low carb) while changing her to metabolic, fat blasting workouts. She immediately began seeing results, resulting in her being very consistent. Like I said at the beginning—fast results create an excitement to continue.

            Brianna worked out three times weekly for 30 minutes each. She used the Lean Core Workout and Recovery Stretch on her off days to help ease depression symptoms. She walked 2–3 times weekly, or whenever time allowed.

            As you can now see, this is not a diet, but rather a lifestyle habit that everyone should be doing. Are you ready to lose 1 pound per day and melt belly fat? Your someday is today!
