Shrinktheplanet Weight Loss

Alli is a weight loss product that requires some planning, and make sure you are prepared to begin. It isn’t a fad diet item, this is the real deal. It also has some real side effects that you need to be aware of, and prepared to endure. By itself, this product probably won’t do much. Combined with a change of diet, and adding in a decent exercise regime, it does work.

If your truly serious about losing weight, and will change your diet and exercise habits, Then Alli is the right choice. It will work. Though it requires a commitment.

Here is what Alli does for you:

1. It burns away 1/4 of the fat that you eat without any stimulant

2. It makes you lose 50% more weight than you would on your own (so if you were going to lose 10lbs you lose 15lbs instead!

3. It has no stimulants that can damage your heart and make you shaky and unstable – those are very bad for you.

4. Alli is the ONLY weight loss OTC drug that is FDA approved – meaning they know that it is proven and safe!

If you are just starting out I would recommend the starter kit because it includes some great extra goodies (like a case to carry the pills with you when you are on the go and some books that help to get you started).

Get started on a weight loss plan coupled with the Alli Weight Loss Aid can really help you reach your weight loss goal fast! Get started on your weight loss plan.

Avoid this ingredient….it causes people to eat more and gain weight.

Studies are showing that millions of people around the world are overweight and obese because of harmful ingredients such as; MSG (monosodium glutamate) a food additive found in many common products.

MSG affects the appetite and here’s how. Your appetite is controlled by hormones. The pituitary gland, located right under your brain is the master hormone gland in the body.

One theory is that this appetite hormone that sends signals to the brain when one is full is damaged by this ingredient MSG. This then results in an over consumption of calories causing obesity & weight gain in many people.

How prevalent is MSG in the U.S. diet? Americans consumed about 1 million pounds of MSG in 1950, and today that number has increased by a factor of 300!

Best ways to avoid MSG:

• Avoid products with an ingredient called Monosodium Glutamate. Always review ingredient lists of the products your purchasing to avoid these harmfull, fake ingredients that cause weight gain
• Buy organic produce whenever possible.
  Make things from scratch, avoiding processed ingredients as much as possible.
• Limit making stews or soups in a crock pot, since slow-cooking tends to cause small amounts of glutamic acid to be released from the protein sources (e.g., meat, chicken) in the recipe.

Lose Weight by Eating Real Food

Two ingredients to avoid!

A common ingredient “High Fructose Corn Syrup” found in a wide variety of processed foods like soft drinks, flavored water, salad dressings, cookies, commercially made cakes, cereals etc. is poisoning our bodies and causing us to gain weight. This unnatural, manufactured ingredient “High Fructose Corn Syrup” was introduced by manufacturers in the 1970’s and gained in popularity because it’s less expense to produce than “Sucrose” an all natural sugar, which was our primary sweetener for decades.

Sucrose an all natural sweetener is derived from sugar cane it’s organic and is digested in the body naturally. While this fake, chemical processed cheaper ingredient “High Fructose Corn Syrup” is digested differently in a bad way. Research has shown that this ingredient goes directly to the liver, releasing enzymes that instruct the body to then store fat. This may elevate triglyceride (fat in the blood) levels and elevate cholesterol levels. Other research indicates that High Fructose Corn Syrup does not stimulate insulin production, which usually creates a sense of being full. Therefore, people may eat more than they should. The key word here is artificial, chemical produced, clear signs to stay away.

Tips to avoid “High Fructose Corn Syrup”:

Remember knowledge is power it is about being informed and being aware. Start with cutting out those harmful ingredients that are not only unhealthy but they cause weight gain. These harmful ingredients are big part of the reason Americans’ are over weight and obese. Shop smart and read the ingredient labels, if you spot “high fructose corn syrup” on the label just walk away.

Another harmful ingredient to our bodies is MSG. Studies are showing that millions of people around the world are overweight and obese because of harmful ingredients such as; MSG (monosodium glutamate) a food additive found in many common products. How prevalent is MSG in the U.S. diet? Americans consumed about 1 million pounds of MSG in 1950, and today that number has increased by a factor of 300.

MSG affects the appetite and here’s how. Your appetite is controlled by hormones. The pituitary gland, located right under your brain is the master hormone gland in the body. One theory is that this appetite hormone that sends a signal to the brain when one is full is damaged by this ingredient MSG. This then results in an over consumption of calories causing weight gain and obesity.

Tips to Avoid MSG:

Avoid products with an ingredient called Monosodium Glutamate. Always review ingredient lists of the products your purchasing to avoid these harmful, fake ingredients that cause weight gain. • Avoiding processed ingredients as much as possible. • Buy organic when possible.

Meatballs are fantastic especially when they are low calorie!

They're perfect like this, with a one-minute homemade tomato sauce and spaghetti, but you could also try them with rice, mashed potatoes, polenta or simple chunks of fresh crusty bread. I like to make meatballs with a mixture of beef and pork, as I think it gives a really wonderful flavor and texture.

Meatballs and Pasta

• 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 12 saltine crackers
• 2 heaping tsp. Dijon mustard
• 1 pound good-quality ground beef or ground pork or a mixture of the two
• 1 heaped Tbsp. dried oregano
• 1 large egg , preferably free-range or organic
• Sea salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Olive oil
• Bunch fresh basil
• 1 medium onion
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1/2 fresh or dried chile
• 2 cans (14-ounce) diced tomatoes
• 2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
• 1 pound dried spaghetti or penne
• Parmesan cheese , for grating

Directions:

To make your meatballs: Pick the rosemary leaves off the woody stalks and finely chop them. Wrap the crackers in a tea towel and smash up until fine, breaking up any big bits up with your hands. Add to the bowl with the mustard, ground meat, chopped rosemary and oregano. Crack in the egg and add a good pinch of salt and pepper. With clean hands scrunch and mix up well. Divide into 4 large balls. With wet hands, divide each ball into 6 and roll into little meatballs—you should end up with 24. Drizzle them with olive oil and jiggle them about so they all get coated. Put them on a plate, cover and place in the fridge until needed.

To cook your pasta, meatballs and sauce: Pick the basil leaves, keeping any smaller ones to one side for later. Peel and finely chop the onion and the garlic. Finely slice the chile. Put a large pan of salted water on to boil. Next, heat a large frying pan on a medium heat and add 2 lugs of olive oil. Add your onion to the frying pan and stir for around 7 minutes or until softened and lightly golden. Then add your garlic and chile, and as soon as they start to get some color add the large basil leaves. Add the tomatoes and the balsamic vinegar. Bring to the boil and season to taste. Meanwhile, heat another large frying pan and add a lug of olive oil and your meatballs. Stir them around and cook for 8–10 minutes until golden (check they're cooked by opening one up—there should be no sign of pink). Add the meatballs to the sauce and simmer until the pasta is ready, then remove from the heat. Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the packet instructions.

To serve your meatballs: Saving some of the cooking water, drain the pasta in a colander. Return the pasta to the pan. Spoon half the tomato sauce into the pasta, adding a little splash of your reserved water to loosen. Serve on a large platter, or in separate bowls, with the rest of the sauce and meatballs on top. Sprinkle over the small basil leaves and some grated Parmesan.

Servings: Serves 4–6
