A click of the mouse on Twitter and I met Lisa Moskovitz. Immediatly we connected and agreed to meet. We knew that  proper diet and fitness were the perfect marriage, one is not really effective without the other. The next week I was sitting in Lisa’s NYC office.  She is not only knowledgeable but beautiful inside and out. A short conversation and it became obvious that our goal is the same. Healthy Living Lifestyles. Lisa say’s it so very well ”stop dieting and start living” We believe in eachother and what we do. See what Lisa has to say and you will believe in her too. Please make sure to read to the very end as Lisa is offering a special offer! And besides you need to know how to contact her!

Not Another Diet Plan by Lisa Moskovitz

Are you one of the millions of American’s looking for a diet plan that actually works? You’ve probably tried everything from cutting carbs, to cutting fat, or maybe you have even cut back on eating completely. Sure, it probably worked for a short period of time until that one late night when you were home alone overwhelmed with stress, opened the freezer, pulled out the gallon of ice cream and never looked back. The truth is that without the proper meal plan tailored to meet your unique lifestyle, your specific needs and food preferences, the chances of rebound weight gain are high. A diet that is too restrictive or too hard to maintain when life gets in the way, simply will not work long-term.

Don’t lose hope yet! This program is a newly developed and emerging system that is geared towards helping you not only lose the weight but keep it off for good! With this high-fiber program, there is no plan B and there is no need to put off becoming your best possible self any longer. We combine the filling effects of fiber-rich foods with plenty of lean protein to transform your body into an all natural fat-burning machine. Whether you’re the busy mother/father of many, or the hard-working New Yorker who doesn’t have time to even take lunch breaks, this program will work for you. Here is how!

1. How Fiber Works:

Fiber is a non-digestible zero calorie nutrient. It keeps us fuller on few calories for a long period time. At the same time, it acts as a natural cleanser and detoxifier ridding the body of toxins or substances that can decrease metabolism, lower energy levels and even cause lackluster hair and dull skin. A 2009 study in journal Appetite found that subjects who ate a high-fiber fruit such as an apple right before lunch consumed 15% fewer calories. Bottom line, the more fiber in your diet the easier it is to lose and keep the weight off for good while at the same time you have more energy as well.

The best sources of fiber are fruits, vegetables and whole grains. Among the fruits, raspberries rank the highest packing over 8 grams per 1 cup serving. Artichokes have up 6 grams of fiber per ½ cup making them the leader of the vegetables. Look at your food labels on whole grain products such as bread and cereals. If it says 5 grams of fiber or more per serving it’s a keeper!

Quick tip: Choose high-fiber cereals for breakfast such as Fiber One with a whopping 14g of fiber per ½ cup serving. Instead of a sandwich for lunch, eat a big bulky salad full of high-fiber veggies such as artichoke, tomatoes, green beans and broccoli. Throw a fiber-packed apple in your bag so you have something healthy to eat while on the run.

2. Benefits of Lean Protein

Most of us don’t get enough protein in our diets which can impact our weight less efforts. Lean protein is the one nutrient that makes our body work harder to digest. It also helps speed up metabolism by preserving lean muscle mass, which can decline with age. The less muscle we have the higher our risk for developing Osteoporosis or bone loss. Incorporating more protein into our diets will help our muscles strong while at the same time full and satisfied on fewer calories. A study in American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found those who ate higher protein diets consumed 441 fewer calories per day. This translates to a 10 pound weight loss in just 2 months!

Choose lean cuts of meat such as filet mignon, boneless/skinless chicken or turkey breast, all types of seafood, egg whites and low fat dairy products such as cheese or Greek Yogurt. Seafood such as salmon, tuna and sardines are exceptional sources of lean protein as they also provide heart-protecting Omega-3’s that also help treat inflammation seen with Arthritis and cognitive function that can decline with age as well.

Quick tip: Try to eat 3-6 ounces of protein at every meal. If you’re a male then aim for 6 ounces and if you’re a female stick to 3-4ounces which is about the size of your blackberry or Iphone. Swap regular yogurt for Greek yogurt which has twice the protein and half the amount of fat-storing carbs.

Let’s face it sticking to any meal plan can be tough as life will always get in the way. The trick is to find a plan that will work with you in times of stress not against you. Stop dieting and start living! You don’t have to sit at home with frozen meals or pass on social outings with family or friends. Instead you can learn how to navigate any New York restaurant menu with confidence and ease while enjoying a nice glass of wine with dinner at the same time.
