By Beverleigh H Piepers

If you have committed to start eating healthier, there is no question there will be hard times along the way. Everyone deals with food cravings from time to time, not to mention hunger that can get the best of you. If you want to maintain your results though and go on to lead a healthy life, it is essential you are laser focused on your effort to continue.

Need a few strategies to help you on your way? Let us look at a few of the best techniques you can use to ensure you stay on your diet plan...

1. Join A Support Group. First, consider joining a support group. Many people think support groups are only for those who are wanting to lose weight, but the fact is they can be for those who are attempting to maintain weight loss as well.

These groups are great for giving others support when temptation strikes or when they are just struggling to stay focused. The more people you have in your court, the better.

2. Focus On New Goals. In some cases, it can be beneficial to focus on a new goal. One reason many people relapse is for so long; they have been focusing on one goal: to lose weight. Then they lose the weight, and now they no longer have direction.

So give yourself direction. Set a new goal to follow and you might find you are less tempted to give in to foods you should be avoiding.

3. Keep It Out Of Sight. As the saying goes: "out of sight, out of mind." Do your best not to bring harmful foods into your home. If they are in the pantry, chances are high you will eat them eventually.

Keep only healthy foods around and make your home a "safe haven" where you do not have to worry about snacking on those sugary foods.

4. Avoid Getting Stuck In A Rut. Finally, avoid letting yourself get stuck in a rut; this happens far too often. You are always eating similar meals at the same time, day after day after day. Start mixing it up a bit. One of the best things about being in a period of weight maintenance is you can be a little more experimental with your food choices.

Being experimental with your food choices does not mean eating unhealthily - it says you should not be focused on eating the same foods. Variety is critical, for eating healthily and for good nutrition.

If you keep these tips in mind, you should find it become easier than ever to maintain your weight loss and prevent a relapse.

The argan tree (logically known as argania spinosa) becomes just in one place on the planet: in the south-west of Morocco.

The neighborhood ladies would process around 30 kilos of Argan organic products in right around 14 hours of unadulterated diligent work, just to increase enough Argan parts for 1 liter of its uncommon oil.

However, regardless of the alternatives current innovation is putting forth, the conventional generation of this extraordinary oil is making strides again in view of the high Argan oil quality achieved along these lines.

This is additionally reflected in the cost of this valuable oil: One liter of bona fide newly separated and natural culinary Argan oil costs in the vicinity of 90 and 120 Dollars relying upon the season!

Argan Oil As A Skin And Hair Serum

Despite the fact that the culinary form can be utilized for both kitchen and additionally corrective purposes, yet here is the restorative (otherwise known as. chilly squeezed) one a herald.

It has an incredibly magnificent impact on skin, nails and hair.

On account of its exceptionally dynamic and powerful fixings, not just it calms harmed skin, nails or hair, but on the other hand it's a perfect answer for saturate, hydrate delicate, maturing and/or imperfect skin, fragile rowdy dry hair and frail nails.

Type 2 Diabetes - Blood Fats Raise The Risk of Kidney Disease

By Beverleigh H Piepers

Chronic kidney disease is a severe complication of Type 2 diabetes. Plasma triglycerides, or blood fats, tend to be high in many people who have been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. Could there be a connection? Scientists at Khon Kaen University in Thailand and several other research facilities in the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia, have found a link between the two. Their work was reported on in February of 2018 in the journal Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice. A total of 3,748 people with Type 2 diabetic were compared...

many of the participants - 83 percent, had poorly controlled blood sugar levels, and

51 percent had high levels of blood fats.

Chronic kidney disease was seen in 27 percent of these participants...

those who had slightly high blood fats were 24 percent more likely to have chronic kidney problems than those with normal blood fat levels.

the participants with higher levels of blood fats had a 52 percent higher risk of chronic kidney disease, and those with the highest concentrations of blood fats had more than three times the chance.

From these results, the researchers concluded plasma triglyceride measurements should be part of the routine management to prevent chronic kidney disease developing in anyone who has been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.

The National Kidney Foundation in the United States lists Type 2 diabetes as being a significant risk factor for chronic kidney disease. About 8 percent of newly diagnosed diabetics have some degree of kidney damage...

as Type 2 diabetes progresses, the risk of kidney disease rises. Eventually,

an estimated 10 to 40 percent will develop kidney failure.

Plasma triglycerides can clog the arteries leading to the kidneys cutting down their blood supply and causing damage. Fortunately, this is preventable. A healthy triglyceride level is 150 to 200 mg/dL...

a measurement over 200 mg/dL is considered high, and

500 mg/dL is considered alarmingly high.

To lower or maintain normal plasma triglyceride levels...

attain and keep a healthy lean weight, with a body mass index (BMI) of <25 kg/meter squared,

begin a fitness program and set realistic goals,

live smoke-free; quit smoking,

do not overdo drinking alcohol. When your blood sugar is stable its best to not drink over one drink a day for women, or two for men,

eat a low carbohydrate diet,

take your prescribed medications as directed,

do not take over-the-counter pain medications without consulting with your doctor first, and

report all medications you are taking, prescribed or over-the-counter, to any doctor you visit.

Type 2 diabetes is not a condition you must just live with. By making easy changes to your daily routine, it is possible to protect your heart, kidneys, eyes and limbs from the damage often caused by diabetes, and eliminate some of the complications you may already experience.

Top 3 Fat Fighting Fats

By Jay Johnson

When you think of a healthy diet, you think "low fat"... right? These days you also hear a lot about "low carb" diets and foods no doubt but the most widely thought of term when thinking of dieting for weight loss is still "low fat".

Why? Well for the same reasons that people think they can't have carbs anymore... they aren't disciplined enough to not eat the whole damn bag, or tub, or whatever contains their favorite carb-y goodness. This is a mistake that you can NOT make though, with carbs OR with fats because pretty soon we'll all be sitting around eating grass, since it is the only "safe" food left to feed the "all or nothing" mentality that so many people have fallen into.

You are here to learn how fats are not bad at all and can actually be beneficial to your weight loss goals, yes? Well, you are in luck because we are about to hit on my top 3 fat-fighting fats, go over how much is an ideal amount to add to your diet and WHY they are beneficial to you. Read on people, because we are about to have you eating your way to leaner body, and you can start today!

1. Nuts (Almonds/Walnuts)
Nuts are awesome for a variety of reasons, because even though they are very high in fat they can and do provide a LOT of benefits! My number one reason when explaining the benefits of eating nuts (preferably raw/unsalted) is the appetite suppressing capabilities they have. My clients reading this are already thinking "of course nuts are number one on this list" because I love them for every person and just about every goal... unless you're allergic of course.

Nuts are a preferred snack food of mine in between larger meals because they are calorie dense, but it also takes less of them to fill you up and KEEP you feeling somewhat full until your next meal. As high as the fat content may be on that label of Blue Diamond almonds, I'm here to tell you that you're not quite as "nuts" as you thought for adding these appetite killers into your diet. Benefits of nuts also include lowering your risk of Type 2 Diabetes as well as heart disease, so this is also good news to know on your path to rapid weight loss.

2. Avocado
Avocados are another healthy fat that I have had people almost love TOO much in the past. Avocados can be used as an alternative or addition to your favorite healthy dip recipe, which can be great to make even your grab-and-go or grab-because-bored options that much healthier. For this reason though, avocados can be overused in that you must stick to the recommended serving size (half an avocado) because after all... it is still a fat and too much of a good fat can still become a bad fat!

3. Coconut Oil & Olive Oil
Last but not least... maybe even last but MOST is the oils, coconut and olive. The new craze seems to be coconut oil due partially to the (bogus) Bulletproof Diet and this video of fat melting that went viral, or whatever. Here's the thing... no it is not going to burn your fat for you to the point of success just by drinking coffee with coconut oil every day.

Now that we got that out of the way, what coconut oil and olive oil CAN do is lead to more rapid fat loss simply by cooking in this stuff rather than butter or whatever else you may be using. Both oils not only add healthy fats into your diet almost without you noticing, but they both combat heart disease and high blood pressure along with many other things! Once again these healthy fat options are not going to melt away your sad areas overnight, but it is the easiest way to kick start your weight loss, which can be just as great overall!

Honorable Mention. Eggs.
When I mention eggs, I mean the most controversial part of them... the yolks.

We have heard for forever that the cholesterol in egg yolks is terrible and should be avoided, and to just eat the whites. As with anything else though, this part is not bad for you when eaten in moderation and it can be the best part of the egg. The yolk not only holds some of the protein that you read on the nutrition facts of these guys, but it holds most of the overall nutrition that the egg provides. I have gotten the question countless times "Isn't the yolk the worst part of the egg?" and the answer is no... it isn't, that's the shell... don't eat that. My recommendation is usually out of the amount of eggs you eat, take in half of the yolks that way you can benefit from the nutrition that the egg provides while still getting the big protein number/quantity that you want from the eggs overall.

Fats are no longer bad. Well, they never were but I feel like they have received so much hate due to dietary trends over the years that we have to be reminded that they are (and always were) cool. Not only are fats not bad for you, they are necessary, even GOOD for you and your goals! With that being said, they can still be bad when taken in too high of quantities at a time, which goes for anything... so keep the high fat recipes to a moderate level.

If this article helped you realize some great fat fighting choices but you are still concerned about how much to eat, our free fat loss calculator can and has already helped many people at least have a good number to start with for their goals.  Also, for more specific feedback on your current approach to dieting, you can get help absolutely free by filling out our nutrition questionnaire and getting yourself going in the right direction today!

Surfing The Wave Of Depression

By Rob Baker

Do you travel through life bottling negative emotions?

Is your job sapping the life from you?

Are your relationships diminishing and the feeling of being alone increasing?

Do you have an outlet to vent and recharge? If not, then the dreaded black dog could very well be following you looking for its new forever home.

Depression can be a debilitating affliction, one which the effects are also felt by others close to you. Take your family or loved ones, for example, they can see and feel your sadness but are at a loss to help.

Your career can suffer... you may get overlooked for job opportunities. Your confidence wains, leaving you doubting your ability and self-worth. Ruts may appear and become deeper to climb out of with every passing day, leaving you with a sense of entrapment.

If you, like me, have ever ridden a negative wave like this then you know how difficult life can be at times. The courage to commute to work can be the hardest thing to extract some days.

Having a passion, a hobby, or a place to go to when you're in that trough can be a real lifesaver. At the very least a pressure valve for your mind. Mine was (and still is surfing). When your tank is being continually emptied, doing the thing you enjoy is soo important!

There are many words to describe surfing; exhilarating, invigorating, arousing for example. In relation to depression, I describe surfing as healing. It allowed my mind to empty itself of all negativity. Replaced with positive joy and happiness. The stresses and worries washed away with every surge of water over my body.

Surfing is not an easy sport to master though. You will need strength, stamina, courage, patience, and resilience. Usually all at the same time! A sense of achievement glows inside you each time you exit the water. Even if all you did was get through the shore break without getting a sandpaper spin cycle! You're rebuilding your inner strength and becoming fitter at the same time; not a bad byproduct eh?

Is your day to day life draining your strength and resilience? Surfing may be an excellent way to restore your confidence and cleanse your mind and soul. If you're unable to surf though, there are other alternatives. When I couldn't get to the beach I also went on regular walks with my dog. My psychologist described walking as tricking the brain into thinking there is no danger or stress. You could even try meditation, Tai Chi or Yoga. There are usually local classes for free or of little cost.

Whatever you're going through, know that it is only temporary and life is a series of waves and troughs. It's helpful to recognise when you're in a trough; to put your head down and paddle hard. And when to catch the wave and stand up and relax. You can enjoy the experience and ride the wave. Remember no one can paddle indefinitely, so keep looking for the next wave to catch!
