What to do if Red Notice is issued against you?

Read the Labels

If you absolutely have to venture into the inner aisles of the grocery store, make sure you take the time to read what’s in the food you’re eating. Over processed, sugar laden, high carb foods should never make it into your food cart. Instead, stick to the outer aisles where you can purchase fresh fruits and vegetables, fresh meat and dairy, and other good for you foods.

Stick with Organic Foods

Toxins rage havoc on the body, and they’re found in most foods on supermarket shelves. Stay away from them and only purchase certified organic foods. Eating organic foods will give you the nutrients and strength you need to carry through your day with energy and a mind-set of knowing you are taking good care of yourself.

Keep Moving

Aside from intended, blocked off exercise, which everyone knows is important, you can stay active while doing everyday things. For example, conduct a walking meeting with your business associates out in the sunshine, walk your dog more, park in the farthest parking spot from the store. Don’t worry about breaking a sweat, just keep moving.

Have a Hunger Plan

Do you get hungry? If so, the chances of giving into fast food or other poor nutrition choices, like unhealthy snacks, rises exponentially. That’s why it’s important to have a plan in place for when hunger sets in. The trick is to always have available healthy, nutrient-rich snacks. Keep them in the car, in the office, in your bag or briefcase, and when you’re traveling – along with plenty of water. Always have snacks on hand that include calcium/dairy, vitamin C, and fiber.

Create a Fun and Effective Workout

Going to the same Pilates class three times a week can get boring. So can ride a stationary bike and walking or running on a treadmill. What’s more, routine exercise that requires constant balance on stationary equipment actually increases your energy output, which in turn makes you more hungry.

While warming up with a bike or treadmill is great, it’s also important to add diversification to your workout plan and make it more fun and effective. One way to do this is with a rowing machine designed for any ability. These have become extremely popular since they give you everything you need – cardio, strength, and toning. The 20 best rowing machines reviewed by fitness equipment experts come in a variety of sizes and shapes to match your individual goals. Burn calories, build muscle, and feel great. Better still, rowing is an exercise you can do at home, which makes it super convenient.

Get Enough Sleep but Not Too Much

When you don’t get enough sleep, you are hungrier. It’s a proven fact of science. Lack of sleep messes with your leptin and ghrelin hormones, which regulate your appetite. So the longer you stay up and the quicker you wake up, the hungrier you’ll feel. And then you’re back to square one – hanger sets in and you’re reaching for a cupcake.

These tips can easily be added to your daily routine for optimum health and weight loss. Try them for thirty days and see what miracles happen.
