Health and Wellness Tip: Stevia as a Sweetener Choice

Health and Wellness Tip: Stevia as a Sweetener Choice One small healthy lifestyle choice at a time will lead you to long lasting lifestyle changes. We learn at the start of our RealW8 journey that sugar has many adverse affects on our bodies, has no real nutritional value, adds empty calories to our diet, and at its worst has been implicated in numerous degenerative diseases. After all, it's our sugar addiction that we need to break free from. Lesson: Choose a natural, chemical free sugar substitute. . Stevia iis an herb. It grows wild as a small shrub in parts of Paraguay and Brazil. Stevia is sweeter than sugar. Stevia has none of sugar's unhealthy drawbacks. There are many brands of stevia sweeteners, this just happens to be the one we've chosen so far. Look at what is readily available in your area. Give it a try! -In your coffee or tea -mixed in some yogurt or sour cream -sprinkled right on fruits Do you use stevia already? Tell us what you do with it, leave a comment sharing your stevia secrets. -------------------------------------------- If you'd like to begin your RealW8 weight loss journey, or if you'd like to become a coach and help not only yourself, but your family and friends as well, or if you'd like to become business partners and learn how to earn money while losing weight email me at Islandgirl.a@gmail.com friend me on FaceBook https://www.facebook.com/alicia.delosreyes.hankins or Use the contact tab here on this website.

Hungry? Reach For an Egg!

Tummy growling? Need something quick? Why not reach for an egg? It's "simple, easy, fresh".

Simple, Easy, Fresh! An Egg!

Maybe you're on the run, want something hot. Maybe you need to plan a snack, lunch even, to take to work. Maybe you just don't feel like spending much time out of a busy streak to think about eating.
This is the perfect moment to make a small, simple lifestyle change with this simple choice.
Reach for an egg.

Eggs cook up easily. You can fry, boil, bake, poach 'em. You can make them up singly or make them for a crowd.

In 5 minutes you can have food for 5!

You can add all kind of extras to eggs to give them so much variety.
My team of RealW8 coaches have experimented and look what they've come up with to fit their busy schedules and lifestyles!

Dr. Tom created a Maui Onion and Cheese Omelet

Louise made eggs with chorizo, potatoes, avocado, tomato, cheese and hot sauce.

Charmayne made Eggs with shrimp and tomato!

Charmayne tried Tuna and Egg

Annie paired steak and eggs.

I tried, my favorite, bacon and eggs.

Remember, even at it's simplest, eggs alone, hard or soft boiled or scrambled up simple are a great snack or meal. A much better choice than a packaged or boxed snack!

Simple, scrambled eggs.

With your RealW8, you can easily Make one small healthy choice at a time to create a healthy lifestyle. You can do it! You have willpower in a bottle!

Health and Wellness Tip: Read Those Labels

Health and Wellness Tip: Read Those Labels

We are very conscientious about food labels. We check for all kinds of ingredients that we are trying to avoid or eliminate from our food choices. We have been very very careful, especially when it comes to salt.
All products the same right? Guess what? NO NO NO
We were at a grocery store, knew we needed half-and-half, grabbed the only option they offer. A few days later, we happened to compare the labels of the outgoing container and the incoming container. Look what we found!!!

Double the Sodium!

Lesson: Always check your labels! Sometimes, you'll find really large differences in several categories. Pick what's best for you!

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.

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. 

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.

---

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.

---

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.

---

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) 

---

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

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

Happy People

Diverse Variety, The Spice of Life

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.
