Is There Anybody There????

Hey......is anybody out there?  I'm still wanting to find out different ways of using my Chia seeds and nobody appears to have any ideas!  Does that mean that none of you have used them or you just don't want to tell me?
Dr Oz had some made into muffins but when I read his recipe it says it has agarve syrup; I have recently been reading on Dr Mercola that this is as bad for you as Fructose so can anyone suggest another substitute?  My immediate answer would be Stevia but I'd really like to hear from someone who has tried something first hand:)
Let's face it, surely one of you who reads this blog must use Chia seeds and have a few clues?
I'm really looking forward to hearing from someone.

Chia Seeds

I have just bought some Chia seeds.  I have the black ones and this is the first time I have ever had them; only problem is that I don't know any great ways to use them.  If any of you have ideas that you can recommend I'd really appreciate it.

The Amazing Little Kettlebells

Not sure if you guys have all heard about the wonderful little things called Kettlebells?
I've used these myself and with only two exercises (not difficult) they can certainly get you fit and tone your body.  Jillian Michaels and Bob Harper from the "Biggest Loser" program both have DVD's showing exercise routines but what is even better........On the kettlebells weight loss website someone is giving away a FREE video plus an ebook etc.  I have just received this and I can personally say the information is good.  Don't actually know yet if the video is about kettlebells but the rest of the website gives plenty of details regarding exactly what they are.  In case you're interested this is the website : www.kettlebellsforweightloss.com
Anyway, as I was saying I have some of these things and they're really good.  I find them great because you don't have to go to a gym or put on lycra (yuck) and you can just use them anywhere.  But then I'm all for an easy life and if I can find anything to solve some of my problems this easily, then great:)
Take care and talk to you soon.

A Letter from Dr Suzanne

I received the following email today from Dr Suzanne and thought I'd share it with you guys.

Sam,

********************************
This is a TRUE STORY (No Joke!) ...
********************************

Trudy and Judy were twins.

At 14 both developed the onset of arthritis, and at various ages
they always developed the same exact conditions, and eventually
they both got cancer and died.

Trudy had two twin daughters by great coincidence, Claire and Blair.

Claire became my patient in the Fall of 2002.

Claire started to suffer arthritis and hence the reason for her
seeking treatment with me.

She pointed out that her mom and aunt (Trudy & Judy) had suffered
at the same time from arthritis, as were now her and her twin
sister, Blair.

However, Blair told Claire that she believed it all to be genetic
since both their mom and their mom's twin had suffered
simultaneously with numerous conditions, sicknesses, illnesses, and
eventually a fatal disease they both had in common.

 -> She insisted that her twin just "accept" this as part of "life."

I vehemently DISAGREED with what Claire's twin sister believed,
despite what appeared to be evidence in favor of genes.

I advised Claire to take my program, which is identical to what's
inside my "Top Secret Fat Loss Secret" -- as it tells people how to
precisely rid their bodies of harmful, even dangerous and
eventually DEADLY plaque and parasites.

================>>
I knew (unlike Claire and Blair) that despite genetic
predispositions towards illness, disease, and life-threatening
sicknesses, that 99.9% were only "triggered" by the human body
becoming TOXIC.
================>>

In other words, even if YOU have some inclination for developing
cancer, diabetes, arthritis, etc., it can be STOPPED for good (and
prevented from ever developing, and even REVERSED!) just by
lowering significantly (and possibly altogether) the level of
"toxicity" in your body!

Most people don't even know they are toxic in the first place -- so
convincing them is next to impossible.

Claire was very open-minded, but her sister remarked that my advice
(and my program too) were:

  "Crazy!"
  "Ridiculous!"
  "Absurd!"
  "Foolishness!"
  "Rubbish!"

Yet Claire did exactly as I advised her.

At the start she and her sister Blair both suffered the same exact
symptoms, and to the same *EXACT* degree.

Both sisters' arthritis was most pronounced in their right middle
three fingers' knuckles, and over time progressed elsewhere
throughout their bodies -- in each twin exactly the SAME.

However, shortly after applying my program, Claire's symptoms all
VANISHED!!!

Her sister however, just continued to get worse.

I emailed her sister (at Claire's request) hoping to get her to
become my patient -- only to receive "NO REPLY" whatsoever.

Finally, one day both ladies came to my office -- but only because
Blair was giving her sister Claire a ride, since Claire's car was in
the shop for several days.

I used this opportunity to try to persuade Blair to start treatment
on my "Detoxification Program" -- only to get an "up-turned nose" of
REJECTION!

Blair (a woman who didn't hold back her opinions) expressed
pointblank to me in my waiting room (and even in front of other
patients) that she believed I was a "WHACKO!"

I pleaded with her to begin treatment (her like her sister being
somewhat at the start of her later years in life) -- but she
outright rejected my pleas -- and despite my best demonstrations of
evidence to support my claims.

Claire eventually got completely well. Her arthritis went
completely away.

However, her sister Blair got worse and worse, and then suddenly
without warning developed cancer.

  =>  Blair lived for about one year after the last time I saw her.

 >> Her sister Claire however is still very much alive today!! <<

Because BOTH gals developed the same exact sicknesses over their
lifetimes (and equally as their twin moms had also done before
them) it's only logical to conclude that had Claire REFUSED to
listen to me and undergo my program, she too would have soon
suffered the exact same fate as her now deceased twin sister, Blair.

  ------>
  It's a shame because Blair could have followed my program easily.
  ------>

But I suppose this is the cost someone ends up paying just for
being stubborn and NOT listening.

My "Top Secret Fat Loss Secret" is more than just a way to lose
weight ...

 >>> It's a way to get HEALTHY, PREVENT & EVEN REVERSE DISEASE! <<<

If you haven't secured it already, then you need to do so now.


I can only plead with you (as I tried to do with Blair, Claire's
sister) but ultimately YOU, Sam, will have to make the
decision to save yourself -- and your own LIFE.

Please, don't become another "sickening statistic."




With much love,

~Dr Suzanne

A Word Of Warning

Just feel I need to offer a word of warning regarding the blog post below.  Before anyone actually clicks through to the next page  to check out what Dr Suzanne Gudakunst has to say you need to know the following. This is a page where she gives loads of information regarding what is happening to the inside of us each and every day; it is all quite gross.  There are pictures and even a video so just be aware of what to expect.
Oh but she does offer a newsletter giving away plenty of interesting FREE stuff.  Yay!  Don't we all like free stuff:)
Stay safe and have a good day and remember, we're all working toward the same goal........ to lose the fat. 

Lady Doc Gets Death Threats for Revealing TOP SECRET Fat Loss Secret to General Public

A new breakthrough secret is all you now need in order to forever shed countless pounds, stay healthy, and add many years to your life!
A lady doctor from Arizona has blown the lid off the best-kept secret in weight loss ever discovered -- and this has the whole diet food and drug industries turned upside down and in nothing less than a torrential uproar.
Her name is Dr Suzanne Gudakunst, and she's marching to the beat of a different drum.

And no, nothing about her "secret" is difficult -- nor does it require that you do something completely out of the ordinary or anything unnatural.
Instead, the Arizonian boasts proudly "...this is something that I caught onto just before 2002 when there was so much research and exploration going around concerning the human colon and digestive system working in harmony with nutritional absorption, and I started doing independent studies just to test things at first ... but which I later expanded on after seeing some fantastic results."
This same woman medical practitioner went on to accurately determine a definitive correlation between harmful plague and parasitic infestations of the human bowel tract, and people suffering chronic obesity -- and who despite intense diet and exercise appeared to be unable to lose any weight whatsoever.
Over the course of six years the Arizona doctor developed a number of natural treatments for the removal of these same harmful, even life-threatening plaques and rapidly reproducing digestive parasites -- and when applied to even worse-case patients suffering extreme obesity (98% of which were in immediate danger of dying) she saw a 100% effectiveness and success rate.
She then borrowed from her research on the severely obese, and applied the same strategies on milder cases of overweight persons -- only to find the same effectiveness and quality results as described above (although the individual weight loss per subject wasn't nearly as much as those obese patients 100 lbs to 200 lbs or more overweight).
So powerful is her secret that she's able to reverse diabetes, rid illness altogether in people suffering from cancer (linked directly to poor diet and overweight factors), as well as an elimination of an entire spectrum of serious and otherwise life-threatening diseases.
Nearly 100% of all her case subjects were told in the alternative by "conventional doctors" that they either had just months or years to live, or they would never live a life anything resembling remotely a "normal" existence -- yet after applying Dr Suzanne's treatments saw a complete contradiction to others doctors' prognoses.
Again, nothing about her secret is unnatural or requires someone to do any major action or modification in their lives.

In fact, her entire treatment is based completely on built-into-nature 'protection agents' scattered throughout the world in the form of select herbs, extracts, and organic constituents, and which can be found in a variety of plants -- but when combined in specific combinations and carefully chosen amounts make for a solution to what is perhaps the world's worst ever plague: OBESITY (and the illnesses and diseases resulting from it -- or at least severely aggravated or exacerbated by it).
Now to everyone else's great gain, whether suffering from just a few extra pounds and inches, to those extremely fat and overweight, this brave, bold lady doctor is releasing to the general public her secret for forever destroying the tight unrelenting closed-fist of obesity's stronghold over the now more than 40% of Americans labeled obese, and others worldwide.
But she's not promising any of us for how long.
Some experts and sociologists suggest that in the bigger scheme of things, the world will never tolerate a discovery of such magnitude, any more than it would be realistic to expect a car that runs on water (even if very real) to ever become commercially available to the general public for day-to-day use.
One well-respected and famous diet & wellness author wrote years ago that if anyone ever "truly unlocked the keys to permanent fat loss, they may actually suffer the same fate as JFK."
It is currently available  Here! so you may want to head on over now and get it before someone or "something" gets it forever yanked out of ever getting in YOUR hand at least.
It's in a very easily readable format and is quickly and readily understood and mastered by anyone with even a 4th grade reading level.
While you're there, why not scroll down and review for yourself the huge successes others are now having with this incredible breakthrough in rapid, massive weight loss and extremely improved and enhanced health, now made freely available to the rest of us?

3 Fat Burning Dessert Recipes

Just thought you'd like a special something for a treat:)




Peanut Butter Ice Cream

1 cup lowfat cottage cheese
1 scoop  Protein Vanilla
2 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter
1/4 cup Almond Milk
1/4 tsp cinnamon

Blend ingredients together in a blender until a smooth consistency is reached. Pour into a bowl and place in freezer until frozen to an ice cream consistency.

Makes approximately 3 servings.

Nutrition Data per serving:

Calories: 174
Protein: 20 gms
Carbs: 7 gms
Fat: 7 gms

Cinnamon is added because research has shown it to be a very good blood sugar controlling spice. Natural Peanut Butter is full of monounsaturated fat, this can help lower total cholesterol and LDL (bad) cholesterol, plus raise HDL (good) cholesterol. If you want a little less peanut butter taste you can use 1 Tbsp of Natural Peanut Butter and it reduces the fat grams by 3 and calories per serving by 24. When the ice cream comes out of the freezer let it sit on the counter for 10 minutes or warm it up slightly. The ice cream will be harder than high sugar, high fat conventional ice cream because it doesn't contain all that excessive sugar and fat.


Peanut Butter Bars

2/3 cup flax meal
2 scoops  Protein Vanilla
4 Tbsp Natural Peanut Butter
1/2 cup Water
Stevia, to taste (approx: 2tsp)

Blend ingredients together in a bowl until it becomes a blob of dough. It will be somewhat sticky. Place the sticky dough into a small casserole or baking pan and smooth out into a flat level surface. Then put in the refrigerator to cool or you can freeze them if you prefer. Once cooled or frozen you can cut them up into bars.

Makes approximately (4) 2in x 4in bars.

Nutrition Data per bar:

Calories: 205
Protein: 18 gms
Carbs: 7 gms
Fat: 11 gms

If you would like a lower calorie bar and maybe less of a peanut butter taste you can modify the ingredients by using 2.5 scoops of Protein powder, 2 Tbsp natural peanut butter, 1/3 cup of water and 2tsp of Stevia. This will lower the calories per bar by approximately 35 calories, 3 less grams of fat, 1 less gram of carbs and 1 extra gram of protein.

This recipe is also rich not only in natural monounstaturated fats that can help lower total cholesterol and LDL (bad) cholesterol, plus raise HDL (good) cholesterol, but rich in Omega 3 fats because of the flax meal and Omega 3 fats that flax meal provides. You will consume about 2.5 gms of Omega 3 fats per bar.

 

Vanilla Cinnamon Pudding

2 scoops Protein Vanilla
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp Stevia
Enough water for desired consistency (about 1/4 of a cup)

Blend protein powder, stevia and cinnamon ingredients together in a bowl until it mixed well. Add a little cold water and mix it in. Keep adding a tiny amount of water and mixing well until your pudding reaches the consistency that you desire. Then put in the refrigerator to cool. Once cooled then enjoy!

15 Easy Ways to Burn More fat. - Tips from around the world.

1. DON’T DIETThe Health Diet isn’t about eating less; it’s about eating more—more nutrient-dense food, to crowd out the empty kilojoules and keep you full all day. That’s important, because restricting food will kill your metabolism. It sends a signal to your body that says, “I’m starving!” Your body responds by slowing your metabolic rate to hold on to existing energy stores. If the food shortage (e.g. your crash diet) continues, you’ll begin burning muscle tissue, which just gives your enemy, visceral fat, a greater advantage. Your metabolism slows further and fat goes on to claim even more territory.
2. GO TO BED EARLIER A study in Finland looked at sets of identical twins and discovered that in each set of siblings, the twin who slept less and was under more stress had more visceral fat.
3. EAT MORE PROTEIN Your body needs protein to maintain lean muscle. In a 2006 article in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, researchers argued that the recommended daily intake of 0.36 grams of protein per half kilo of body weight, is inadequate for anyone doing resistance training and recommend that women get between 0.5 and 1 gram per half kilo of body weight. (If you want to lose weight, use your goal body weight as your guide). Add either 85 g of lean meat, 2 tablespoons of nuts, or 225 g of low-fat yoghurt, to every meal and snack. Plus, research shows that protein can up post-meal kilojoule burn by as much as 35 per cent.
4. GO ORGANIC WHEN YOU CAN Canadian researchers report that dieters with the most organochlorines (pollutants from pesticides, which are stored in fat cells) experience a greater-than-normal dip in metabolism as they lose weight, perhaps because the toxins interfere with the energy-burning process. Of course, it’s not always easy to find—or afford—organic produce. In general, items that you peel—avocado, grapefruit, bananas—are fine. But choose organic when buying celery, peaches, strawberries, apples, blueberries and nectarines; they have some of the highest levels of pesticides.
5. GET UP, STAND UP Whether you sit or stand at work may play as big a role in your waistline as your fitness routine. Researchers discovered that inactivity (4 hours or more) causes a near shutdown of an enzyme that controls fat and cholesterol metabolism. To keep this enzyme active and increase fat-burning, break up periods of downtime by standing up—for example, while talking on the phone.
6. DRINK COLD WATER German researchers found that drinking 6 cups of cold water a day (that’s almost 1.5 litres) can raise resting metabolism by about 209 kilojoules daily—enough to shed 2.2 kg in a year, with essentially zero additional effort. The increase may come from the work it takes to heat the water to body temperature.
7. EAT THE HEAT It turns out that capsaicin, the compound that gives chillies their heat, can also fire up your metabolism. Eating about 1 tablespoon of chilli boosts your sympathetic nervous system (responsible for your fight-or-flight response), according to a study published in the Journal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology. The result: a temporary metabolism spike of about 23 per cent. Stock up on fresh or dried chilli to add to salsa or for tossing into stir-fries.
8. REV UP IN THE MORNING Eating breakfast jump starts your metabolism so it’s no accident that those who skip brekky are 41⁄2 times more likely to be obese. The heartier your first meal is, the better. In one study, volunteers who got 22 to 55 per cent of their total kilojoules at breakfast gained 700 g on average over 4 years. While those who ate zero to 11 per cent gained nearly double.
9. DRINK COFFEE OR TEA Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant, so your daily java can rev your metabolism by 5 to 8 per cent—burning about 410 to 728 kJ a day. A cup of brewed tea can raise your metabolism by 12 per cent, according to one Japanese study.
10. FIGHT FAT WITH FIBRE Research shows that some fibre can fire up your fat burn by as much as 30 per cent. Studies find that those who eat the most fibre gain the least weight over time. Aim for about 25 grams a day—the amount in about three servings each of fruits and vegetables.
11. EAT IRON-RICH FOODS Iron is essential for carrying the oxygen your muscles need to burn fat. Unless you restock your stores, you run the risk of low energy and a sagging metabolism. Shellfish, lean meats, beans, fortified cereals and spinach are excellent sources.
12. GET MORE VITAMIN D Vitamin D is essential for preserving muscle tissue. Get 90 per cent of your recommended daily intake (400 IU) in 100 g of salmon. Other good sources: tuna, fortified milk and cereal and eggs.
13. DRINK MILK There’s some evidence that calcium deficiency, which is common in many women, may slow metabolism. Research shows that consuming calcium through dairy foods such as fat-free milk and low-fat yoghurt may also reduce fat absorption from other foods.
14. EAT WATERMELON The amino acid arginine, abundant in watermelon, might promote weight loss, according to the Journal of Nutrition. In a laboratory study, adding this amino acid to the diet of obese mice enhanced the oxidation of fat and glucose. Snack on watermelon and other arginine sources, such as seafood, nuts and seeds, year-round.
15. STAY HYDRATED All of your body’s chemical reactions, including your metabolism, depend on water. If you are dehydrated, you may be burning up to 2 per cent fewer kilojoules, according to researchers at the University of Utah. Drink at least eight to twelve glasses a day.

I said I'd get back to you when I'd found out the details of Josh Bezoni's "Belly fat Free Diet."
Well it's been a lot harder than I thought; apparently he isn't keen to part with this information!  This is all the stuff about 'obesity additives' that I told you about in a previous post.

I've now managed to hunt down a page of his that explains some of what I was telling you, I've put the link below if you want to check it out for yourself.
