Drop the Soda

The first step for most dieters is to switch
from regular soda to diet soda. However,
a new study suggests that is beginning a
downfall in your diet and instead you should
switch to an event healthier drink. In the
study, those who replaced their diet sodas
with water dropped 14 more pounds than
their counterparts. Waist circumferences
were also down, according to the research.

Keys to a
Successful
Breakfast
You’ve heard “breakfast is the most important meal of the day”
before. But, when it comes to weight loss, that sentiment is exactly
the right key to success. According to research, breakfast can make
or break your diet early in the morning. Follow these three tips to
make your first meal of the day the most successful one:
Load up on fiber
Fiber helps reduce calorie intake and keeps you fuller, longer.
Pack in the protein
Studies show that breakfasts high in protein are associated with
decreased appetite over the following hours and a reduced caloric
intake during lunch by comparison to low-protein breakfasts
Don’t restrict calories
The benefits from having a good, hearty breakfast outweighs a
low-carb, low-calorie breakfast for weight loss any day.

How to start regaining “you” time
They were all right. All those people that told

me everything changes when you have a baby.
Our son arrived and within a single
moment everything did in fact change – it has
been an amazing change. I have never been so
fulfilled in my entire life. As a new mom, you choose to pass up on outings with your
girlfriends or a night out to grab wine and catch up. It’s not solely because the baby
requires it – it’s because you want to, a choice that you are making.
The mom life is rough, from juggling the post-partum symptoms, adjusting a baby
to a sleep schedule, learning how to build a routine, feeling confident and comfortable
in your new role and learning how to nurse and pump. It is a big win if a mom can
take a shower and eat some food in a day. Any mom I have ever talked to will sacrifice
whatever they must for their child; their sleep, time and lifestyle, all completely
changed in a heartbeat with no qualms.
But, what happens to you? Where do you go? A mom’s needs tend to come last. So,
many of us forget that we need to take care of ourselves to make ourselves a better and
happier, wife mother and individual person. Whatever stage of motherhood you may be
at, whether you are three months or 12 years in, you need to take a moment or an hour
for yourself. That time to nurture you in turn will make you a better mother.

It is easy to become discouraged at the
start of a journey that involves a drastic
lifestyle change. Why? Things like life
responsibilities, such as all-consuming
careers and family obligations, turn into
escape routes and easy excuses. And the
older we become, the harder it sometimes
feels to embrace change altogether.
But, change is possible; This goes
for any stage in life, at any age. Just ask
Molly Edwards, a selfless woman who
always prioritized her family and work
before herself. As a result, Edwards had
serious illnesses knocking at her front
door. It wasn’t until she attended one of
her son’s karate tournaments that she
realized something had to change. No
more excuses or taking scenic routes –
Edwards decided to embrace a lifestyle
change … in her ‘40s.
Edwards moved from her home of
The Land of 10,000 Lakes (Minnesota) to
Arizona in 1984. As business professional
with a strong worth ethic, Edwards had
always taken high intensity jobs. In 2010,
she worked as the press secretary for the
attorney general’s office in Arizona. This
position required her undivided attention

“My health completely deteriorated
because I was working from sun up to
sun down, living on Red Bull, peanut but-
ter sandwiches, McDonald’s, and all of the
formal meals we had out with the attor-
ney general,” she says. “Then you add the
stress of the job, and I ended up in the
hospital for a month with meningitis and
shingles.”
True to her 24/7 work mentality at the
time, Edwards took on three more high-
stress jobs. She again opted for on-the-go
meals, which put her already weak immune
system even further on the back burner.
Throughout her adult life, Edwards’
weight fluctuated and common colds
turned into constant colds. Her hospital
visit was a reality check, and she knew
it was time to put her health on the
