Controlling weight gain at menopause and beyond

I have heard many times like this. "Hit me menopause and BAM!" "the weight started piling."

Sounds familiar? If you answered Yes, then read on. There is hope and does not come in a bottle. Well, maybe a bottle of Perrier.

When our hormones quirky, one of the main roles our liver works is the clean up excessive hormones in our bodies. Plenty of water helps, but also do a variety of minerals that support phases of detoxification of the liver.

Selenium is one of those minerals. A great source can be found in the Brazil nuts. Three to five of these wonder nuts a day can give the momentum you need to delete more hormones from the body, along with other toxins the liver.

When more energy is required throughout the day, but they are afraid to eat because everything sticks to the thighs or hips, eat more often. Have before, heard you right? However, it is true. While he eats his body enters a State called Thermogenesis. This raises your metabolism, so it can burn more calories.

How often should you eat? I tell my clients to every 2.5 to 3 hours work better. Help to control blood sugar so that you don't have those valleys and peaks of energy. Below are some suggestions you can stay energized without excessive amounts of sugar or coffee.

1 Eat a good breakfast every day with protein of egg, sausage Turkey, Greek yogurt, whey of milk or rice protein. For vegetarians can make hot cereal of quinoa with almonds or rice milk. Beans and rice with avocado and sauce can also work well, but be careful with the starch of. Bring it crashing down in just forty-five minutes.

2. Stay hydrated every day drinking half of its body weight in ounces of water. To begin with, is to know what is that number. It is the formula for personal water. If you weigh a hundred and forty pounds, you should drink daily 70 ounces of water. It may be that it weighs much more and you can not imagine to drink half of its weight in ounces of water on a daily basis. Then, start with your IDEAL weight and divide by half.

3 Make your snacks count. Celery and hummus, egg salad, or nut butter works well for a snack on average tomorrow. You can make a sandwich than anything that has a little protein and some food with high density of nutrients such as fruits or vegetables. I like sticks of carrot for contraction and hummus for texture. Sometimes eat red peppers, which are high in antioxidants. I often set a segment of Turkey or a stick of cheese in several leaves of lettuce, roll up and eat with sauce a little. Average morning snack and a half later. Skip the coffee and green tea, no choice of rich in antioxidants.

4. A light dinner will be through the night and keep the pounds off. If you plan a salad of vegetables every night or roast dinner with just three ounces of fish or chicken, will have more energy to walk or doing yard work or play with the grandchildren. If you feel hungry later in the night, you need a piece of fruit. My customers seem to like grapefruit at night, which is great while you are not taking statin drugs or other drugs that could be affected by grapefruit. Check with your doctor or pharmacist.

You can also add self-starvation to weight gain. It sounds like contra-intuitivas, I know. The point here is to prevent inflammation. It can cause tissues swell. Instead of making long cardio, which is very important for the reduction of stress, try walking and strength with light weight training. Try yoga for stress reduction.

Do these five things for three or four weeks, to see if her weight gain stops and initiate connection in your smallest clothes again. I bet you he'll love the results.
