Sugar and Its Aliases

According to a recent issue of Oxygen Magazine (January 2010 issue), Americans consume 22 teaspoons of sugar in a day.

If that is not troubling enough, those 22 teaspoons add up to 352 extra calories every day, 128,480 calories each year which is the same as 37 pounds!

So, while you're reading your labels, be sure to check sugar's aliases:

• corn sweetener
• dextrose
• maltodextrin
• fructose
• molasses
• high fructose corn syrup
• maltose
• sucrose

Now, not all of these sources of sugar are the best, they are also not the worst.  Do your research before deciding what you can and cannot have in your diet.  Use this list to be more aware of where sugar is lurking in your food.

Oxygen suggests the following exercises to burn off 352 calories (based on a 130 lb woman):

• punch a heavy bag for 60 minutes
• play 40 minutes of intense soccer
• fence for an hour
• kayak for 75 minutes
• cross country ski for 32 minutes
• waltz for two hours

Maybe sugar isn't your problem.  Maybe you just need help getting started with an exercise or fitness program.  Whichever the case, an Independent Beachbody Coach, such as myself, can help you with the motivation and guidance you need.

New Year, New You?

Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the next chapter in your lives.

Yes, we have started another year and that often means promises, resolutions, and goals.

What about you? What do you have planned for the year?

Start a business?

Lose weight? Get fit?

Be a better steward of your money?

Whatever you decide needs to happen this year, be sure to right it down, give yourself a deadline, be specific, and refer to it on a regular basis.

Getting what you want in life isn't about gimmicks or tricks.  It's about working hard.  It's about living like no one else so that later you can live like no one else (thank you Dave Ramsey for that).  After all, if it's worth having, then it's worth working for.  Okay, I'm done with the cliches, but you know what I mean.

Above all else, make this the year you have some accountability and believe in yourself.
