The Stairs or the Elevator?

One easy way to get more exercise is to always use the stairs. Going up and down stairs is great exercise - It'll burn plenty of calories.

If you are in a department store and can't find any stairs, but there is a moving staircase, just climp up and down it as it's moving. But if you are offered a choice between stairs and an escalator, stairs are the choice for those who wish to lose weight or keep it off.

If you are lucky enough to live in a house with stairs, make sure that you go up and down them as often as possible. Try to set up your life so that exercise is built in.
Say you have your computer upstairs, but the coffee maker downstairs, every time you want a cup of coffee you'll get some exercise. Those little bits of exercise add up over the day.

Raw Food - Avocado and Cucumber Soup

This is a soup to eat cold - as are most soups.
You need either 1 long English cucumber or 2 field cucumbers
1/2 avocado
lemon juice
A sprig of basil

Put everything in your blender except a few thin slices of cucumber and blend until it's smooth.
garnish with the slices of cucumber.

And there you have a great tasting snack with all the enzymes still alive.

Heating foods kills all the enzymes, and some of them you need. People on a raw food diet don't suffer so much from things like degenerative diseases either.

So do yourself a favour, go on a raw food diet to both lose weight and to feel great and be healthier!

Swimming - An Ideal Weight Loss Exercise

When you go swimming, you are using more of the different muscles in your body than you are with any other sport.

Swimming is one of the exercises that is both aerobic and good for muscle tone.

It's good to have good muscle tone for weight loss since even when resting the muscle in your body burns fat for maintenance. So swim in the day and lose weight while you sleep! What could be better!

Getting More Exercise Without Trying Too Hard!

Probably more exercise is the best way to lose those extra inches that you don't want.

It doesn't have to be a trip to an aerobics class.

We probably all have some 'lost time' in our days.

Do you wait for the kettle to boil? Dont wait! Go up and downstairs until it's whistling for attention.

Just put the coffeee on to brew? Walk around the block while it does it!

Waiting for a bus? walk backwards and forwards at the bus stop until the bus arrives.

There's probably quite a few minutes in your day that you are waiting for something to happen. If you just convert those minutes to easy or brisk exercise the pounds should disappear!

Raw Food Diet for Weight Loss

Many People are now trying a raw food diet and finding that it can help dramatically in the war against extra weight as well as helping cure other ills.

The idea of the diet is to only eat foods that have never been heated above about 110 degrees so that all the enzymes in the food are intact. Raw fruits and vegetables, unroasted nuts and seeds, naturally dried fruits.

I'm going to post a few 'Uncook Recipes' here, and please everyone, add yours too! The more variety the better!

When I started this, I thought that it might be boring, that I might feel deprived etc. That just isn't so. The raw food tastes so much better! And I feel so much better even after only 5 days eating raw. I decided to go 100% raw to start with, and then when I was used to that to cut down on fat.

Here's what I had for lunch today:
1/2 small avocado mashed with about a teaspoonful of soya sauce. Hal a tomato chopped up a bit and them mashed in with the avocado. Then I added a grated carrot, some chopped raw ginger, 2 mushrooms, a few chopped snap peas and green beans. Mixed everything together. Delicious!

And for desert I chopped up a few dates that I had set to soak last night, added some sliced almonds and half a teaspoonful of raw cocoa powder. Yum!
