When Gourmet Meets Nutrition, Part 1

by Dr. John Berardi, CSCS

Sometimes “health food” is just plain awful.
And it’s this simple fact that drives some folks away from eating healthy altogether.

While I lament this fact, I have to admit
I feel most sorry for those poor folks who decide to lower their heads and keep at it —
those who keep eating miserable tasting food because they want to lose weight or
accomplish some other health or physique-type goal.

And I feel sorry for
them because they don’t even know there’s a better way.

You see, every day, there are people
out there eating healthy, easy-to-make meals that might easily be found in gourmet restaurants. Meals that could impress the most discerning foodie. Meals that could
fool a first date, a reluctant spouse, or picky-eating kids. Meals that just plain taste
good. Meals that, when planned and eaten consistently, can improve and even
completely transform your body.

And how do they do it?

Jillian Michaels: Beach Boot Camp

This full set of exercises from Jillian Michaels, of ‘The Biggest Loser,’ will shape your body for the summer. Tell me a little bit about your philosophy.

I get thousands of e-mails everyday on my website, asking me how I am getting all of this weight off of people. The answer is simple. It’s Self. Science. Sweat. Self if understanding how your emotions and your behaviors are affecting your weight. Then learning techniques to commit all of your mental resources towards positive change. Science. There is no one size fits all when it comes to diets. So it’s about learning how many calories your body needs, and what types of foods are right for you. The third thing is Sweat. This is my very favorite part of the process. You’ve got to move your but, in order to lose your butt. Anyone who tells you otherwise is a dirty rotten liar.
You are going to have to work out.
