New Year's Eve Create the Food Celebration with Choices


RealW8 Task:
Accommodate each person's healthy lifestyle choices while still offering variety for taste, make a pleasing, cohesive meal.

Picture
Yes! You can eat food as scrumptious as this while on RealW8. Losing weight and cutting free from your "Food Drama".  It's all in preparation and choices.

Let's have sandwiches and pasta salad for New Year's Eve

Offer Options

Instead of creating a sandwich and salad and serving it, let your family create their own from a variety of choices. 
Picture
We all have different likes and dislikes, some of us have allergies to certain foods, some of us are salt sensitive, some of us are picky eaters. By offering choices, within a certain group, then everyone can make their own healthy adjustments and choose what is good for them. Learning to pick the foods that make you feel good is part of a healthy lifestyle change.

Picture
In the preparation, we made some of the initial choices for healthy options. We chose to use Quinoa pasta in place of wheat pasta.  It's a better choice for it's high protein content and other nutritional pluses. Quinoa has gained in popularity.

Picture
We also chose to offer a better choice of Olive Oil and Vinegars. We splurged over the holidays and bought some upscale bottles at a wonderful specialty store here.

Picture
We also chose to offer homemade bread. We made our Pizza bread and grilled it out on the grill instead of the oven. (The RealW8 Cook offers video on Pizza Dough) 

Picture
We grilled our chicken. It tastes great and most of the fats drip off the meat.

When you   lay out the choices and let people choose what they want or need, they start to learn what works or doesn't work for them. Maybe it's just a preference or maybe they need to care for their medical limitations, but, they can come together to share a meal, and accommodate their own needs, while still enjoying great taste.

Choices

Picture
Look what happens when you lay it out and let them pick and build it themselves.

With RealW8, our whole family has learned to choose what is 'right' for themselves individually. Having an entire family share the same goals and understandings help to offer awesome support through our RealW8 journeys. Why not offer your family choices as well. Start small, each little step adds up to Big Changes.

Yes! With RealW8, You CAN eat Pizza! and still lose weight! RealW8, Real Food. 

Pizza is a pretty popular food. If you are getting it frozen or even from a fast food outlet, you are probably getting pizza covered preservatives, chemicals and, most likely, an outrageous amount of salt (sodium). 
Why not make it at home, fresh from your oven? 
You'll know exactly what's in it, 
you can make adjustments to the dough, sauce, and toppings to match your needs, 
each person having the pizza can choose their own toppings and
It's a Fun Activity to do with your Circle of Support right there at home!
Give it a try! Let me know how YOUR pizza turns out by leaving me a comment right here, on Facebook, or email. 
Be Creative!
Aloha~

Starting A Team



Creating Your Circle of Support





Get Your Friends 'On the Line'




A team is a group of your closest friends and/or relatives. 


That's where it starts. 
It's simple.


I got 5 of my friends ON THE LINE to call 808.699.6311.

 I created my circle with them...and the rest is history.

We started off encouraging each other daily to  take our RealW8, drink our water and eat great food.

Real Food. 

We tell great stories, have fun, laugh, share our lives.
We rely on each other to celebrate each and every pound we lose and each and every inch we abandon!

We have a GREAT time!

And... We're LOSING WEIGHT. And people notice.

And then they ask us... 

What are you doing? They not only notice our weight loss, they notice our Happiness... our Spring in our Step... our Positiveness! 

After sharing,  my friends now have their own circles, and those now have friends that want their own circles. So we ALL have become coaches, cheering and celebrating everyone's weight loss and renewed outlook on life.

As we journey this path, there are powerful, wonderful changes happening. 

We not only help you  lose weight, we help you to become the person you've always wanted to be. 
Through friendships, support, family,  camaraderie, we form bonds. 
Bonds that transform lives.
 Become a leader... gain independence, confidence... shine as a winner! 
Make a difference in someone's life. 
Be that difference.

One of our coaches said, after only HOURS of being a coach,...

I FEEL ALIVE

!LIfe. Changing. Moments.

Join us! 
email: 
islandgirl.a@gmail.com
 or comment here

We'd love to have you join our Circle of Supportand we'd love for you to have a weight loss success story of your own!

Weight Loss - Where to Start


So, You Want to Lose Weight...

If you're here, then you've already started. You have to begin somewhere...and where it all starts is in your mind...and in your heart. Congratulations...you've taken Your first step to a new, healthier you. :)

Where We Started with Weight Loss


The Heavy...

First off, let me post our pictures now so you don't have to read any further and wonder if we are successful with weight loss and maintenance. My mom has lost OVER 140lbs. and I've lost over 70lbs. :) And we celebrate it EVERY DAY!
Picture
For me, the short story is:
My husband and I were living in New Orleans and lived through Hurricane Katrina. As a result of that evacuation, we ended up living in a Hotel for a full YEAR. Eating where ever and when ever we could in a nearby city with limited resources. We both gained a lot of weight and frankly, didn't mind because we were grateful to be alive.
When we returned home, to Hawaii, we were just happy to be here. No matter what our weight was.
But, our weight loss journey began... out of need, for someone ELSE.
Picture
When we got home, my mom, at her heaviest on the right here, was wearing compression stockings on her legs. Her blood pressure was out of control. She could barely walk from short, short distances without stopping to rest or give her aching knee some time to stop hurting.
We were all just 'dealing with it'. Mostly because, well... you know how it goes. We had all, in our past, TRIED IT ALL!  You name it, we'd tried it... and basically, we were all grateful to be alive and to be together... so we had just resolved for it to be our 'fate'.

Weight Loss Help

Something had to give. My mom's health was just too rocky. We started on the Wellnessbridge plan and were successful with it.  But, in January, we got a call from our Coach, Brandy, to tell us about RealW8. We made the commitment, as a family- Mom, Dad, Me, Husband, and my Adult Son, to all do this together. To be our own circle of support to my mom. To help her get to her goal- which is Health and Wellness.
Now, I am so lucky and honored to be coaching others to their weight loss goals and teaching them to coach THEIR family and friends to weight loss goals. :)

Enjoy!

Alicia and John's Crustless Apple Pie



Alicia and John's Crustless Apple Pie


Gather:
Fruit: we use 1 fruit per person in the recipe and adjust everything else to that size
For this, we are serving 4
2 pear
2 apples
a little lemon (to squeeze on the fruit to keep it from browning in the air)
3 stevia packets
some butter (to your preference)
cinnamon
vanilla
heavy whipping cream


Slice the apples and the pears.

Melt your butter in a large saucepan.


Sprinkle out some cinnamon (to taste) we used about a Tbsp here

Pour out some vanilla (we used about a tsp here)

Open your Stevia packets


Add all 3, cinnamon, stevia  and vanilla to the cooking apples.

Saute until apples are soft. (approx 5 minutes or so-check with a fork, if fork can pierce apple easily, they are done)


As the apples and pears cook, prep your whipped cream.
You'll need heavy whipping cream, some vanilla, and a stevia for this. It's best to place the whipping cream in a VERY cold bowl to it to whip up well.
Pour the whipping cream in the bowl, add some vanilla, and stevia packet.I just really guess at this part.
How can you ever have too much whipped cream?


Whip to Soft Peaks

almost there...


See the 'soft peaks' formed. It's done.

Dish out the apples and pears, top with Fresh Whipped Cream!
Enjoy!
