Awesome Ways to Get an Hourglass Figure

Many people think that in order to have an hourglass figure (full bust and hips, small waist), you have to be born with the right genetics. To some extent, this is true but any woman can have this figure, and no, you don’t have to go out and get expensive cosmetic surgery to do so. You just need to have enough of a desire to have this figure that you will work hard for it. Here are some of the things you will need to do in order to have a perfect hourglass figure.

1. Eat Properly

Great bodies are made in the kitchen. We all know that in order to be healthy, we need to follow a healthy, well-balanced diet. This is especially important when you are trying to get that hourglass figure. For instance, if you need to lose weight, you will need to cut your caloric intake.

You should also be eating healthy foods, such as fruits and vegetables, good proteins, good fats (yes, we need fats, but there is a difference between the good and the bad), fiber, decrease your overall sugar intake, etc. Also, start drinking more water. Not only will it help you to lose weight, it will also do wonders for your skin, hair, and nails. Drinking water will also help you to eat less, because your brain will be fooled into thinking that you have eaten.

2. Get Waisted

Another great way to gain an hourglass shape is through waist training. Latex waist trainers especially work great with your normal exercise routines as it helps rump up perspiration in the mid section while molding your body into an hourglass figure. Waist trainers also minimize the overall amount of food you eat and also make you seem like you have an hourglass shape with it on. Many celebrities swear that nothing does a better job in giving you an hourglass figure than a waist trainer.

3. Do the Right Workouts

Everyone needs to get at least a couple of minutes of exercise each day in order to maintain good health. If you want to get an hourglass figure, you need to do specific types of exercises. For instance, you will want to do exercises such as sit-ups, twists, etc. to reduce abdominal fat and get it toned up. You will also want to improve the muscle tone in your butt and breasts, which is going to make them look larger without making them look fat.

It is also a good idea to walk or run to keep your legs well-toned. Don’t forget to work your arms as well, because even if you get that hourglass figure, you won’t be happy if you still have flabby arms. Some recommended exercises that will help you achieve the hourglass shape include:

• Cardio – This is going to help slim down the mid section of your body, and get your legs nice and toned. Some of the best cardio workouts you can do include jogging, riding a bike, interval training, and dancing. To reach your goals, it is recommended that you do 30 minutes of cardio, five times each week. To emphasize on your waist, it’s recommended to do these exercises with a waist trainer.
• Butt Toning – There are specific exercises you can do that will help firm and tone your butt. These include lunges, squats, and leg curls.
• Leg Toning – Toned legs are part of the perfect hourglass figure. To get great legs, some of the exercises you should be doing include lateral step-ups, side lunges, and Pilates.
• Upper Body Toning – Don’t forget about your upper arms and shoulders. Exercises you can do to keep these areas toned include bench dips, shoulder presses, and arm circles.
• Increase Your Breast Size – You can do this without surgery if you are doing the right exercises. To increase the size of your breasts, try doing push-ups, bench presses, and dumbbell flies.

Nutrition: Improve Your Diet

 

 

 

Eating healthy is very crucial for our well-being as you already know. Your diet does not have to be super strict nor super perfect. The most important thing is that you are aware of what you should eat more of and what you should eat less of. I will give you a few pointers of how I manage my everyday diet which has helped me immensely. Hopefully this will influence you in a positive way!

First and foremost make sure you eat 3 meals a day! We all have busy lives and tend to skip meals and eat a bag of greasy chips or a super-sized muffin just to get by. This is a BIG NO NO! I learned from Dr.Oz to eat like a King/Queen in the morning, eat like a Prince/Princess in the afternoon and eat like a peasant in the evening. This method works wonders! You lose weight and for those who don't need to lose weight, this method prevents weight gain. Also there are no digestive issues! Eat the most during the day when you are active because while you are in motion you are burning calories and your digestive system is the most active. Also snacking on HEALTHY snacks in between meals. It keeps your blood sugar and energy levels stable.

Some healthy snacks you can eat:

Greek Yogurt
Chicken, turkey or fish (6 oz.)
1/2 cup of brown rice
Organic Green Tea
Olive oil and avocado
Nuts, humus, pickles

Another method to incorporate is to eat healthy foods 6 days a week and have one cheat day where you eat the not so healthy foods. This method teaches you discipline and doesn't restrict you from eating anything you like. How bout that, right?

Now in terms of the food I eat and drinks I drink, I created 2 groups. Of course healthy and not so healthy:

I usually eat organic foods such as green plantains, potatoes, chicken breast, veggies, fish etc. And for drinks I mostly drink water then there's organic milk, almond milk, soy milk, orange juice, homemade green tea juice, cinnamon tea, green tea, rosemary tea and peppermint tea. I don't drink tea every single day because I don't like to overdo anything. ***Moderation is Key***

In the not so healthy category which I like to call all the "On Occasion Food & Drink Category", I eat cookies, cake, ice cream, crackers, chips, cupcakes, chocolate. And for drinks: light alcohol such as Moscato, soda and other juices with all that artificialness in it lol.

These 2 categories demonstrate that I am aware of what foods to consume more of and what foods to eat less of.

For those of you who barely drink any water, this is what I usually do to encourage myself to drink water throughout the day. I take a bottle of water and carry it with me everywhere I go. According to psychology, we are more likely to eat or drink what we see in our enviroment Remember after Thanksgiving when you had that leftover strawberry shortcake on the table? Remember seeing it all the time and snagging a piece or two on your plate until it was done? Exactly! But hey you aren't the only one who's guilty of doing this, I'm guilty too lol! But the point is, by getting into the habit of carrying a bottle of water with you everywhere you go, this alone will encourage you to drink. Sometimes you'll be drinking without even realizing so! It's a wonderful psychological glitch! And who really drinks 6-8 glasses of water EVERY SINGLE DAY? My brother says he drinks a GALLON of water per day. I think it's a bit much if you ask me. As long as you are drinking water throughout the day that's the most important thing. Don't wait until you are thirsty to drink water!

Another thing I do is incorporate Turmeric in my diet. Turmeric is a very powerful anti-inflammatory root that's well-known in Indian and China. I have 2 words for you: GOOD STUFF! It reduces inflammation anywhere in your body and prevents cancer! I speak from experience, this root is A-MA-ZING! As you can see in the pictures, you can buy the root and make your own blended food seasonings or take it in pill form. I suggest you take 2 pills a day. It is good for EVERYONE, sick or healthy. It is especially good for those who suffer from ulcerative colitis, crohn's disease, arthritis or any other IBD. If you have ulcerative colitis I suggest you make a turmeric enema: cut or grade the turmeric root, boil it, pour into enema then take in and let it sit inside you for as long as possible. You WILL see a miracle the following day!

Last but not least, juicing! I must say juicing is one of the BEST methods of ingesting healthy foods! Dr.Oz has hypnotized me to juice/make smoothies his way:

1 cup of Almond Milk
1/2 a cup of frozen berries
1/2 a banana
2 tbsp. of rice protein powder
2 tbsp. of flax seeds (preferably ground flax seeds) on top

I use this combo but in a slightly different way. I use different fruits and I add veggies since I still don't like to actually eat my veggies at my grown up age lol. By making smoothies with veggies in it I feel no more guilt because I know I "ate" my veggies another way. Hash tag Life hack lol!

Juicing is also great for those with ulcerative colitis or any other IBD. I saw a YouTube video about a lady who had crohn's pretty bad and was able to cure herself by blending her meals often on to give the digestive system a break. She also practiced ayurvedic methods to heal herself and it worked! "Let medicine be thy food" -Hippocrates (460-377 B.C.)

Are You Eating Enough 'Powerhouse' Vegetables?

Watercress, Chinese cabbage, chard and beet greens are among the most nutrient-dense "powerhouse" vegetables, packing a huge dose of vitamins and minerals into every calorie, a new study reports.

At the same time, don't expect to receive huge amounts of nutrition from raspberries, tangerines, garlic or onions, the findings suggest.

National nutrition guidelines emphasize consumption of powerhouse fruits and vegetables, which are strongly associated with reduced risk of chronic disease.

But until now, the study author noted, nutritional value of veggies hasn't been ranked in a way that would show which best qualify as nutrient-dense powerhouse foods.

 For the report, Jennifer Di Noia, an associate professor of sociology at William Paterson University in Wayne, N.J., crafted a list based on the nutritional density of fruits and vegetables, using data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

"Higher-ranking foods provide more nutrients per calories," Di Noia said. "The scores may help focus consumers on their daily energy needs, and how best to get the most nutrients from their foods. The rankings provide clarity on the nutrient quality of the different foods and may aid in the selection of more nutrient-dense items within the powerhouse group."

Di Noia calculated the nutrition contained in 47 fruits and veggies, finding that all but six met the criteria as a powerhouse food.

Cruciferous and dark green leafy vegetables dominate the top 10. They are, in order, watercress, Chinese cabbage, chard and beet greens, followed by spinach, chicory, leaf lettuce, parsley, romaine lettuce and collard greens.

All the top vegetables contain high levels of B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin K, iron, riboflavin, niacin and folate -- nutrients that help protect people against cancer and heart disease, the researcher noted.

These leafy vegetables taking the top powerhouse spots "makes sense," said Lauri Wright, a spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

"They have a lot of the B-vitamins and a lot of fiber in the leaves," said Wright. "If you think about plants, that's where they store their nutrients. Those green leafy vegetables have a lot of minerals and vitamins and fiber in those leaves, and very few calories.

"People who chop off the leafy part of vegetables such as celery, carrots or beets are "actually cutting away some very good nutrients," said Wright, an assistant professor at the University of South Florida College of Public Health in Tampa.

The six fruits and vegetables that didn't make the list as powerhouse foods are raspberries, tangerines, cranberries, garlic, onions and blueberries. While all contain vitamins and minerals, they are not densely packed with important nutrients, the study said.

The full list is published June 5 in the journal Preventing Chronic Disease.

 Folks will get good nutrition from the powerhouse veggies whether they eat them raw or cook them, as long as they don't boil them, Wright said.

"Fresh, you have 100 percent of the vitamins and minerals," she said. "When you cook it, you might lose a small percentage, but it's not significant."

Boiling, however, can drain veggies of B-vitamins, vitamin C and other nutrients, Di Noia and Wright said.

Cooks who choose to boil spinach or collard greens should save the nutrient-rich water, either including a little with each serving or re-using the water in sauces or soups, Di Noia said.

Wright agreed. "We encourage you to use the liquid. If you have a bowl of green beans, have some of the liquid with your serving of beans," she said.

New Fat Burner Takes GNC By Storm

With all the controversy surrounding today’s most popular diets, it’s no wonder more and more consumers are looking for safer, healthier, ‘enjoyable’ alternatives.

The growing number of these health conscious consumers has paved the way for new, innovative ways we think about our health – specifically, our weight.

The Breakthrough That Has the Industry Buzzing

New research has uncovered something surprising: emerging science suggests that combining lactospore, a resilient probiotic strain, with a fat burning component can help improve digestive health and promote healthy weight loss – smart.

Better still, an innovative supplement company from Boston has used the research to develop something called ProbioSlim. It combines weight loss and digestive health in one pill… just like the research says. But they went one better… adding an incredible energy kick to help fight cravings and overcome diet fatigue and failure.

It’s beginning to get attention from more health-conscious consumers — many are experiencing real weight loss, along with less gas and bloating.

Despite early success, ProbioSlim has had its hurdles. As a result of being one of the only probiotic weight management options available to consumers, keeping up with demand has been an issue.

Since ProbioSlim’s launch, it has quickly moved up to be the #1 selling product at HealthExperts.com, the highly regarded online vitamin superstore. They are running into their own inventory problems due to high demand for ProbioSlim. “We just don’t know how much to order” says Nancy Sturgiss, category manager at HealthExperts.com. “Every time we think we purchase enough, we’re quickly proven wrong and go out of stock.”

Probioslim will be available in most GNC stores by April, 2014. But, if you want to try it now, the researchers behind this breakthrough supplement are offering a  risk-free 14-day sample of ProbioSlim so you can try it before it hits the shelves. Due to high demand, this may be your best chance to get your hands on ProbioSlim, but even here, supplies are limited. Click the reference link below to request a sample.
