Burn Fat Faster! Fitness Model Secret Quick Workout Tips to Tone & Tighten FAST!
QUESTION
Victoria,
I know you are a training guru and you love to workout. What does a person like myself do who is busy with holiday preparations, a job and high stress lifestyle and want to burn fat faster? I want to make sure that when I do have time to workout, that I do the right workout. I have a gorgeous party dress I bought and I don’t have time to lose a bunch of weight. I want to know what to do to look and feel sexy for my husband when he sees me in it. – Basilia
ANSWER: Hey Basilia,
I know what you mean; coming up on the holidays are real stressful and it’s one of the busiest times of the year. We are all busy, busy, busy!! Running around from place to place constantly, exhausted, low on energy, fatigued, eating on the run and devouring caffeine, sugar and carbs like long distance marathon runners. The only problem is that we are not burning those thousands of calories of sugar per day like they do. Ours is literally killing us; messing up our digestion, hormones, and of course our body shape, size and overall health. We have to look at totally different if we want to burn fat faster.
Why We Do The Things We Do
First of all, what you are experiencing in your appetite is instinctual, physical and spiritual.
As we move into wintertime, you will start to find yourself longing for rich hearty feel good foods, more carbohydrates, and more downtime. These cravings are your body’s natural way of adapting to the changes in the season. Our bodies were designed to adapt to the weather, seasons and environmental conditions. As the weather cools down, you have a natural desire to eat warm foods as opposed to cold salads and fresh fruit, you want more bread, stuffing, carbohydrate-rich foods and sweet desserts.
The colder weather, darker evenings and end of the summer season are indicators that it is the time to turn inward. Our bodies have a tendency to want to slow down and hibernate in the winter. But we typically do the exact opposite. Instead of slowing down and replenishing our energy, we usually end up burning the candle at both ends.
SO you see, our appetite and desire for comfort are programmed in us. That is part of the reason why it is so hard sometimes to lose weight in the winter and especially around the holidays as food is connected to our social life.
During holidays you not only want to eat more, you have a desire for more love, deeper more meaningful relationships and you want to be involved in fun family gatherings more often. That satisfies your soul and sense of belonging. But on the other hand it usually brings with it a longer “to do list”! That can leave you overwhelmed, underappreciated and taxed to the limit. So then you eat whatever is in front of you and that can be a disaster on your waistline, hips, thighs and upper body.
Movin and Groovin’
During these busy times, it is even more important that you get organized, create a life schedule that allows you to make time to workout, move more, dance, play, sing and train your body in fun ways. You know that the right exercise can make you feel better, improve your shape, give you more energy to burn fat faster and incinerate stored fat cells and extra calories.
Take Back Your Time – Sculpt Your Body & Save Your Mind!
Miracles Happen When You Put Time Into Your Health
According to John Robinson, a time expert, and professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland, we have more free time than we think. The best way to find out where your time is going is to keep a journal of all of your activities for a week then analyze it. Be honest, we all have places where we can take out unnecessary errands, conversations, TV watching, searching for misplaced items, etc. When I first did this exercise I found that I was spending a lot of time talking to people to help them solve their problems or talk through things that did not involve me. I found myself mentally exhausted at the end of the day. I definitely needed to redirect my emotional and physical energy so that I could take better care of myself.
Ink it -Analyze it and then… Change It
All analysis takes a little bit of time at first, bur once you know the patterns, you can change it and have MORE time in the end! Take one day of your life and write down every single activity from the time you wake up until the time you go to sleep. Don’t cheat. Be honest with yourself so that you can get a true measurement of where your time is being wasted, spent or invested well. Time is like money. You can use it wisely and become rich or you can waste it frivolously and end up broke!
Your time analysis journal will reveal your true activity quotient. If you are not spending at least 60 minutes doing something that brings you closer to your goal every single day, you need to change your activities and then redirect your energy so that you can achieve your goals.
You can only manage what you measure. As an example, when I was overweight, I would spend at least 30 minutes a day reading magazines that were food related including collecting high fat dessert recipes. I was so consumed with eating and fatty foods that it took up most of the time that I could have been using to reduce fat, yet I was spending over 7 hours per week energizing my downfall.
What You Think About Expands
Stop Watching Your Weight and Just Get Rid of it!
When I spent my time thinking about food, food, and more food. That’s exactly what I did… EXPAND!!! I kept getting bigger and bigger. I told myself I didn’t have the time to work on myself; I was too busy working on everyone else. I thought it took too much time to shop healthy, eat right and prepare healthy food. Boy was I wrong, it actually takes more time to be sick, goes to the doctor, miss work and workouts!
I know what you really mean when you said: “I just don’t have the time!” How much TV did you watch last week and how long did it take you to eat that muffin, pastry or low nutrition white bread sandwich? It takes the same amount of time to order a healthy lunch without mayonnaise or cheese and No Chips or Fries Please!
Can you get up 30 minutes earlier to work out? How about go to bed thirty minutes earlier so that you can get more sleep? How about power walking on your lunch hour? How about doing a mini non-sweaty yoga workout at lunch. Dress comfortably so that you can toss a big beach towel or a mat on the floor and spend 10 minutes doing something that energizes you and helps you have less back pain.
Here is one of my favorite 3 Minute Arm Workout Routines from Buzzfeed that I use after I do a thirty minute fat burning cardio session. Copy it and keep it on your computer, phone, laptop, tablet and someplace you can see it to remind you to DO IT!
3 Minute Workout To Tighten & Tone Arms to Combine with a 30 Minute Burn Fat Faster Cardio Workout From Buzz Feed
You Will Be So Happy When You Do What’s Healthy Long Term Instead of What’s Easy!
Make a decision to invest time into your future by working out. Put more life into your holidays by investing in your personal energy creation with exercise and a healthy low carb diet. It will also decrease your potential of developing cancer, Diabetes, Dementia and the dreaded Alzheimer’s. Stop all those destructive diseases now by starting with a Detox and Cleanse. Start with the Skinny Tea, to get the toxins and poisonous debris out of your system before it causes serious illnesses. The tea not only detoxes your body, it helps to raise your metabolism so that when you workout, you can have enough energy to burn fat fast.
Dance is Healing and Inspiring
I love dance and once you learn how, you will love it too. If you want to really have fun, get a hip-hop video and spend thirty minutes improve your coordination, agility, and overall physical movement capabilities. Go out dancing with your friends, dance at home, dance at work, just let go and dance! When Nike signed me to a contract that was one of the marketing director’s comments. She said, “Victoria is so athletic, smart, and genius at integrating sports and dance”! I believe that sports, dance and athletic movement should be integrated into your workouts.
Burn Fat Faster With a 30 Minute Workout
Dr. Kenneth Cooper, the father or aerobic science, describes physical fitness as “having the ability to do your everyday activities with ease.” That includes gliding down a flight of stairs, running to your car in the rain carrying bags of your new favorite fashions without straining your muscles. Chasing your kids around the block, hiking with your family through the mall on the weekend without gasping for air, bending over to put on your sexy new shoes without straining your low back or even worse, falling and spraining your ankle. The list goes on and on when it comes to everyday movement.
Sexiness Is About Attitude and Insider Body Shaping Secrets!
If you will change your attitude and put your health first, it will change your life. Sexiness is about how you feel about yourself. Women feel sexier when they are rested, have energy and are comfortable with their body. You don’t have to spend all day in the gym to get in shape. You just have to do something every day for half an hour to get you started.
You don’t have to be ready for a fitness competition but you will look better, be healthier, have more energy and feel better about your body. You can use the same tools those hot body women use to help look better faster. The fitness models I work with all drink Detox Weight Loss Tea every day to avoid bloating, release water retention and to break down and prevent cellulite. Imagine how great you are going to feel when you are lighter, have more energy, healthier and tighter! You actually can look amazing!

If you’re not having green smoothies, you really want to consider adding them to your diet. Why? They’re an exceptional option to carb-loaded snack bars or sugary coffee drinks. Green Smoothies are actually a healthy fast food. You can make them, store them in the fridge and then you can eat them on the go. You can eat them for breakfast, lunch and or dinner.
What are Green Smoothies? They are a form of smoothie that is made with organic raw leafy green vegetables as a base that is blended in a blender with water. Many use fruit to enhance the flavor and nutrient density. They are packed with minerals, vitamins, anti-oxidants, fiber, chlorophyll, phytonutrients and anti-inflammatory elements.

I add somewhere between one and two teaspoons per 8 ounce servings depending on if I’m making them for a group or if I’m making them just for myself. Or if it’s in the morning and I want more energy. If I want more energy, I’ll add 2 teaspoons of Matcha Powder. If it’s in the afternoon, I’ll usually 1 Teaspoon of Matcha Powder and I’ll put that in my green or protein smoothie.
Testimonial
“I had no idea that Victoria’s magic green tea powder is so hearty, natural and super packed with nutrition. I wanted a good green product to improve my overall health, help increase my energy and assist in keeping the fat off. I ordered it, and I thought I would just give it a try. I always get colds every winter so I wanted a good super food to give me a head start in strengthening my immune system. I am truly happy I bought a bag. I drink it in the morning for energy and use it in my green smoothie before I cycle for endurance and stamina. I feel so energised after I drink it. I seem to be able to focus and navigate curves better. There is no crash or jittery side effects. It’s been 4 months now, and I have lost 3% body fat. My abs look leaner, I’m faster, more content and am pleased to report no colds this winter. I also seem to recuperate faster after a long training session. I have even started using it in my frozen yoghurt. I’m in Victoria’s Matcha fan club for life”.
Green Smoothies For Fast Fat Loss And Quicker Healthy Rejuvenation That Totally Hacks Your Health!
You got this just in time to go shopping and get your veggies and fruits you will need to get this green party going!
If you have struggled with bloating, excess gas when you eat, accumulation of belly fat, constipation, lack of energy, motivation or drive; you may be lacking in crucial vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, healthy digestive enzymes and fiber.
And let’s not forget to mention if you have struggled with trying to lose weight and keep it off, you are in the right place today. I am going to share with you one of my greatest solutions to address these issues. Just like the testimonial in the beginning of this post,
You will find that there really are super foods that your body loves and responds to with rapid speed.
Battling losing weight is painful; emotionally draining and can make you feel hopeless and weak. Especially if you are like me and have tried everything on the planet to try to lose weight and get a flat stomach. You keep trying every new sugar-loaded fruity smoothie that the big companies advertising on TV are selling thinking that you finally found an answer, only to find that when you drink one, your appetite soars through the roof from all the hidden sugars they use in the formulas. AAHHH!
Let’s look at the why they are so healthy.
Organic and Natural- They are usually made with 40% organic green ingredients. You can mix some low glycemic moderately ripe fruit or flavor, digestion and bulk. Personally but I don’t always eat green fruit because it can be little too potent for my stomach. Some people can eat green fruit just fine. You should experiment to see what works for you. Make sure that you do not add any artificial ingredients to your healthy pure smoothie.
Digestive Healer – Green smoothies are good for your digestion. Vegetables and fruits have good gut enzymes that actually assist in digestion and they’re easily biologically absorbed and utilized as nourishment by your cells.
Complete Nutrition – You can blend all your fruits and vegetables together at once, that way your body can absorb all the nutrition at one time. It’s a complete form of concentrated vitamins and minerals without adding unnecessary calories.
Super Fiber To Keep You Moving – Green Smoothies are also rich in fiber and that helps to maintain a healthy digestive system; they help keep your colon clean and that helps prevent constipation. They put your gut into a healthy alkaline state where your body’s able to digest food and then the proper vitamins, minerals and micronutrients are absorbed in the gut. That is why you’ll see your health start to improve and you skin start to get better.
Multiple Benefits – You’ll see your energy start to improve. You’ll start seeing your skin improve. Many of our users say their skin becomes softer, smoother and brown spots stop appearing.
We have even had people write that they had congestion all the time and once they got the right green vegetable, fruits and added their own personalized goodies like Whey Protein Powder, Matcha Tea Powder, almonds and green tea and a multitude of other nutrients they felt they needed, the severe congestion cleared up.
Crazy cool huh? When I am being diligent eating my Green Smoothies, my eyesight gets brighter, get clearer and less sensitive to light and I have better night vision.
It’s mainly because of the concentration of powerful nutrition that is in its perfect form, unprocessed without chemical additives.
Apple Pectin Benefits. One study in japan found that apple pectin reduced the chances of colon cancer and that it helped maintain a healthy digestive tract. You can take 2-3 small apples and then add a pear, add green vegetables to that, then add some Matcha Tea Powder, which gives you super high healthy antioxidants and then add some other herbs you need to make your own personal natural healing smoothed. You can even add bland or good tasting vitamins and minerals and other supplements to it as well. Experiment and explore. Add ice, water, and stevia for sweetness if you prefer. There are more extensive directions and the 7 Green Smoothie Recipe Book Free Green Smoothie Guideand The Most Delicious Smoothie Recipes on the Planet. Click to get your copy!
Protein (Workout Shake) Green Smoothie – You can even add a non-sugar protein powder to your smoothie. If you are vegan or eat very little protein or meat, this gives you a pure source of complete protein. A complete protein is vital for your overall wellness, muscle health, hair, skin, nails, organs and mental wellness.
When you make your smoothies this way, you have a complete fitness smoothie packed with vitamins, minerals, enzymes and electrolytes; you have it all in one glass. Try different foods to find out what you like. Flavor is individual, so make this journey a lifetime of playing and experimenting with your favorite vegetables, fruits and other healthy ingredients. If you have an illness or some sort of disorder, research elements that can help your condition and if they don’t have a bad flavor add it to your drink. If they do taste bad, then take them within an hour of drinking your shake if that is approved by your healthy physician or Naturopath.
It’s absolutely an amazing after workout drink too. Especially if you work out, train in the gym, do soul cycle, run outside, lift weights, practice yoga, Pilates, Zumba and dance, it’s a great way to rehydrate and replenish electrolytes that you lost.
Fast Healthy Weight Loss– If you want to jump-start a weight loss program and want to see quick results, here’s what you’ll do.
Try out our Sexy Pink Waist Trainer for helping you get a flat tummy and skinny was it as you lose weight!
You will look at the list of foods in my Catabolic Mystery Foods post and make your green smoothie with those vegetables and fruits, ones that are low glycemic, so you’re able to get into a good fat burning state quickly and you’re also able to stabilise your blood sugar which helps you stay in the weight loss game by giving you a greater sense of calm and energy. It’s absolutely amazing what happens when you have the right green smoothie. You’re going to love it. It may take some time adjusting your schedule or picking the right ingredients, but you only have one body, give it the absolute best nutrition possible.
Lifestyle – This process of adding a Green Smoothie or two to your diet daily is to be a lifestyle because once you start giving your body healthy gut elements, it will rebel when you go back to Junk!
Even when traveling, it’s important to stay on your plan. If you’re on the road you could even have someone at a restaurant put everything in the blender for you and make you a smoothie. I always take my Matcha Green Tea Powder with me when I travel. I even take protein powder with me. I also take my Fat Burner Capsules, I take one two times per day and sometimes I’ll even open them up and throw them in the smoothie. It’s absolutely great. So now I have a super duper double effect fat blasting healthy smoothie.
I love the organic elements in my Fat Burners, they help me control my appetite, keep my energy up, stop my horrible mood swings and help speed up my starting to slow down, metabolism. Sounds crazy to throw them in a smoothie huh? I can because they’re organic, they are actually a concentrated source of highly effective plants that you just cant get unless they are in a capsule or you want to sit and eat three pounds of the natural plant itself at one sitting twice day!
Food Form For Burning Fat
They are actually food, they are not synthetic, they have no fillers like most o f the products on the market that sell for a lot less, they are FDA approved natural and organic, so you’re just getting a complete source of all the elements combined in one fat burning capsule. I love them, I am convinced if I had been taking them during my sixty pounds plus weight gain from emotional eating, I would not have gained the weight.
So you can see why I can toss them into my smoothie so that I’m drinking them when I am in a hurry. That way my metabolism starts to increase; my energy stays constant, my ability to maintain and endurance when I am exercising. Maybe you need endurance too. I know that’s why we don’t exercise sometimes. We know we need to, we know it’s vital to our health, organs, skin and prevents diseases but we simply don’t have the physical energy to do it and when we do sometimes we don’t have the endurance because we can’t stay with the activity long enough to burn enough fat to lose weight.
That is another reason I always have my fat burners with me in my car and take them before I go to my class after a tiring or rough day. It gives me the energy and stamina I need to help me workout longer.
Fat Burning Energy
When you take Fat Burners, they can give you the ability to move with more energy so that you are able to process more oxygen. That means you can work out longer which means you can burn fat longer. That translates into getting in better shape over a shorter period of time. It also means you enough energy to work out 5 days a week. In order to permanently lose weight, tighten and tone your muscles, you need to train your body to burn fat more often. With good training and being healthier, you’ll be able to recover faster because you’re using more oxygen. Oxygen is the key to fitness, longevity, healthy skin and life itself.
Life Saver – Green smoothies have really been a life saver. They are quick and good nutrition meal replacement. You can make them, put in the fridge and grab and eat when pressed for time or just want something quick and healthy to eat. You get to control what you eat. Don’t think it’s the same as eating a commercial store bought smoothie unless you read the ingredients on the bottle. Even when you go to a smoothie café, you have to be careful about what they put in there. If they can make you a pure green smoothie that would be fantastic
Less Carb Craving. – When eating healthy vegetables, you’ll find that you’re not craving sugar as much. You’ll find your blood sugar balances quicker and if you have type 1 diabetes; or if you have type 2 diabetes, you’ll find your blood sugar may be balances easier when you’re having green smoothies. You may also find your cholesterol level can possibly go down. A lot of our clients that eat green smoothies find that their blood cholesterol levels go down. In many cases good cholesterol improves, bad cholesterol is reduced and overall blood pressure can go down by not eating high carb chips, unhealthy processed foods that are high in high temperature fried fat that your body is unable to process properly. Those types of foods put undue stress on your digestive system and that robs your body of vital healing nutrients.
Many users have seen their blood pressure actually go down by eating green smoothies simply using them as a replacement for unhealthy snacks, while eating a healthy diet.
Healthy Family Food
Processed foods actually zap your energy. When you have a pure, healthy green smoothie packed with chlorophyll, vitamins and minerals, critical trace elements and electrolytes, you’ll actually find your body responding in many positive ways. Your mind and body will operate at a higher level. You’ll have more energy. You’ll have less brain fog and more mental clarity. You may find that you feel lighter as well. You’ll be more regular as your digestion improves. It’s really healthy. They are such a smart way to feed your kids too. When you choose ingredients that are tolerated digestively, (little ones have more delicate systems, so you have to experiment with different ingredients) you can make green smoothies for your entire family.
Frozen Smoothies –Sometimes I’ll freeze them and just grab one on the way out the door when I know I’m going to be busy in the morning. I’ll freeze mine and then I’ll take it out of the freezer on the way out the door, It’s almost like frozen yoghurt. There’s no way you cannot want to do this.
Liver Health – Your liver needs to be detoxed in order to burn a higher percent of fat; potent green smoothies actually facilitate that. They actually help to cleanse your liver and help supply intuition to all your organs and that can make you healthier and you can lose fat faster!
Control Blood Sugar and Feel Great – You’ll find that by eating smoothies and your blood sugar stabilizing, your metabolism is higher, you’re actually able to lose more cellulite. Your skin will get better. Your entire body will operate at a higher level when you have good solid nutrition that doesn’t have all the additives and preservatives as GMO processed foods.

Super Charged Super Food Green Smoothie
Now let’s talk about Matcha Tea because I’ve had a lot of people emailing me and asking me, “what is this Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder about?”
It’s a super concentrated form of a food. It’s super condensed nutrition that is good for every cell in your body. It’s stimulates digestion. It’s a natural way to detox your body. It improves your metabolism, and it increases your energy, and it increases your body’s ability to actually burn calories. It’s phenomenal because you will have a good sense of concentration. That’s what’s really great about it for my executives. When they drink it, they always say things like, “How come I can just stay so focused for so long? I used to have to get up from my desk and do things and all of a sudden I’m drinking my tea in the morning or I had it in my smoothie, and I feel so alert, yet not jittery.” It’s the naturally occurring elements in the tea powder that give your brain a mental boost and jump-starts your metabolism. That’s really important because when you’re working throughout the day or you have to go to the gym, you want to have enough energy to be able to get the job done.
Natural Energy

Even before he left, Prince was a smoothie drinker. He lived on fresh greens, raw milk and was a devout vegan. He devoted his life to move us with his music. May he live in power playing with the angels!
I want to share a moment of inspiration from one of my favourite artists, Prince. One of the benefits of working with the giant of a corporation like Nike is that you are offered VIP status at events and you get to go behind the curtain, if you know what I mean.
I was totally blessed to see Prince in the land of Nike Headquarters, Portland Oregon. He was performing at the Arlene Shnitzner Hall and it was one big dance party. After his spiritual encore at the hall, he moved to a more private venue where he played the guitar with such skill that it sounded as if the guitar was a person and it was speaking an electric language.
His love for music, performing and evoking aliveness in the soul was such an inspiration. I hope you are all driven to find that thing inside of you that makes your soul sing the way he found his. Continue reading →

Your question reminded me of the time when I was getting ready for a fitness championship and I had a total melt down. I was looking good, so I thought. I was so excited because I had been posing at home in my bathroom mirror and I just could not wait to see how my much better the definition in my muscles would be under “posing lights” at the gym. Posing lights are special lights that are designed to make your muscles look more cut, defined and striated. Those are bodybuilding terms for looking “HOT and BUFF”!
Perfection – NOT! I gathered up my swimsuit, posing oil and a scrunchie to pull back my hair so that it would not cover up one beautiful striation of hard earned muscle. I went to the gym I was training at that had a perfect set of posing lights installed by the head trainer, a NPC Body Building champion. Ok, I get to the gym, run in the women’s locker room, put on my skimpy competition posing suit and oiled myself up. I slipped into a comfy robe to cover myself as I walked across the gym to the room we used for posing. I confidently took off my robe and gracefully walked across the room as if I was walking on stage. I believe that we should always be “on” and rehearsing in our mind and with our body what we want to be.

This is an idea of how I eat and train. This is my schedule when I am not on a set, at a rehearsal, working with a client or doing interviews and skype training.
First off, thank you for the great feedback! I got an email asking for my personal daily diet and workout.
First of all, I get up when I wake up. I don’t use an alarm. I sleep between 6 to 8 hours a night. Everybody is different and I go with my body’s natural clock.
I had a green smoothie and skinny tea then headed out the door.
I went to my chiropractor, Dr. S and I was a structural mess! He said my C-2&3 were out. I had one arm longer than the other. My T-5&6 were out and my right ribcage was out of alignment and my sacrum was also out of alignment. I went because i had pain in my knee, my traps were stuck around my ears from tension and my Psoas was hurting. I have been going to a Chiro for most of my adult life. It structurally aligned. If your car is out of alignment, you don’t just buy new tires, you get the alignment fixed. That’s how I look at my spinal alignment.
By Wednesday, my knee will stop hurting, my arms will be the same length which will help me with my weight lifting. When I trained on Saturday, one arm was stronger than the other. The adjustment will even everything back out.
Okay here’s my food and training schedule:
I am very disciplined and I like to follow a regular schedule. I am the type of person who knows that I cannot function in chaos and disorder. I have to set myself up to succeed. I have to surround myself With positive people and an atmosphere that creates good vibes. I only buy food that serves my body and my purposes. I use to allow other people to lead me to overeat, stress out abandon my desire for a fit body.
I get up between 7:00 -8 AM.
I take my favorite liquid vitamin drink mixed with 4 oz. of Sobe Lean diet peach drink. I let the digestion happen for about thirty minutes while I wonder around the house speaking positive and powerful affirmations about how awesome my day is going to be. I speak my day before it happens. I believe that what you think about comes about, so I speak awesome prophecies about my day and the people I am going to meet and work with.
7:30-8:30 I make an Amino Charge protein shake with secret ingredients that boost my metabolism, increases my brainpower, balances my blood sugar, increases my energy plus it contains secret anti-cellulite ingredients. Here are the base ingredients..secret not listed.
Second Breakfast Tight Booty Shake:Body Balance Liquid vitamins, sugar-free flavoring, wheat grass, green vibrance powder, amino charge, tea powder, OsteoProcare for joints and calcium.
It is a scientific breakthrough formula that I created. Sorry, it is not for sale! And YES it works. I have amazing energy, good muscle tone, great skin and mentally clear thinking.
3rd Meal
I eat an egg white omelet with veggies and three vegetarian sausages. Six egg whites and 2 yolks with a tablespoon of coconut oil.
While I make my food I listen to a positive uplifting message, then I watch a muscle training DVD to get inspired to train, then I listen to educational material or something educational on the way to the gym. I love to learn and I love to learn and I love to eat, so I do both in a healthy and positive manner.
Train on my Gym Days
I do some form or movement every morning except Sunday. I take a dance class. I practice Hip Hop, Step Jamm, Lyrical Jazz, and Other forms of Aerobic Dance that keep me fit, flexible, sharp and sexy. After that, I do some form of cardio for 45 minutes. I do step mill, trekker uphill, stationary bike or treadmill. This is on the three days when I train at night.
Wednesdays-Fridays-Saturdays
12:00- 3:00 Vertical Training Private class
Monday-Tuesday-Thursday
1:00 Lunch on Gym Workout days
I have stir fry vegetables and chicken and beef combination every day with ½ cup of rice. Bowl of fruit ½ hour later. I will also have a gigantic salad with fresh tuna on days when I want a break from the stir fry.
I drink six quarts of water every single day of the week.
4:00 Green drink smoothie just like I have for breakfast on my Gym days
4:00 Lunch on my 3-hour marathon class days
5:00 Gym for my evening workout 3 days per week.
7:00 Dinner
Large Salad
Grilled meat – 4 oz. Beef or Chicken 2 times per week. 6 oz. Fish with vegetables the other five days of the week. I do not eat shellfish or pork.
TODAY’S WORKOUT:
3 sets of 20 Ab Rope Curls @60lbs on the pulley machine
3 sets of 20 Standing Lateral Leg Lifts @20lbs per leg
4 sets of Flat Bench Dumbell Press with combined with crunches – feet up on bench to maximize curl effect (had to lay next to a guy who was wearing more jewelry than me….I hate it when that happens).
Also….Ladies, get your buns into the gym, there were exaclty 35 men training in the section of the Super Gym I was training in tonight. There were two other women besides me and they both had trainers. One lady had a trainer who was MORE OVERWEIGHT than her and the other had a guy that she was arguing about over technique. He was checking out the other guys while he was training her and not helping her with her form and she got pissed off…rightly so!
4 Sets of 8 Lat Pulldowns @75lbs. Dr. S said I need to strech my lats more and strech my spine out. I am so good about being obedient and following directions. I did it tonight because I don’t want to ever look like an old lady with hunch back.. aaaahhh!
Next I did Wide Grip Pullups – 3 sets of 5
Then I just stretched and people watched. I only had two shadows tonight. Those are people who treat me as their star sighting and they follow me around and giggle and do everything I do. i don’t blame them. It’s flattering, plus I use perfect form, i smile, i have jamming music on, today’s music was Fergie’s “Glamorous” updated bass electronic remix. That was the vibe I wanted to express today as I moved around the gym and around the planet. I love being a girl. It’s so much fun and we are made so perfect!
That was my workout and now I am going to try on three of the hottest tightest tops i could find and still breathe and finish my day strutting around to Fergilicious “Delicious”!
If I overeat or eat the wrong foods at one meal and have “blown it”, are my weight-loss efforts futile? I seem to binge eat so often and I feel totally out of control. What can I do?
Answer: First off, here is some information from the National Institute of Health on the topic and I will offer some suggestions as well.
Binge-Eating Disorder – Community surveys have estimated that between 2 percent and 5 percent of Americans experience binge-eating disorder in a 6-month period. Symptoms of binge-eating disorder include:
Recurrent episodes of binge eating, characterized by eating an excessive amount of food within a discrete period of time and by a sense of lack of control over eating during the episode. The binge-eating episodes are associated with at least 3 of the following: eating much more rapidly than normal; eating until feeling uncomfortably full; eating large amounts of food when not feeling physically hungry; eating alone because of being embarrassed by how much one is eating; feeling disgusted with oneself, depressed, or very guilty after overeating.
Marked distress about the binge-eating behavior: The binge eating occurs, on average, at least 2 days a week for 6 months.
The binge eating is not associated with the regular use of inappropriate compensatory behaviors (e.g., purging, fasting, excessive exercise).
People with binge-eating disorder experience frequent episodes of out-of-control eating, with the same binge-eating symptoms as those with bulimia. The main difference is that individuals with binge-eating disorder do not purge their bodies of excess calories. Therefore, many with the disorder are overweight for their age and height. Feelings of self-disgust and shame associated with this illness can lead to bingeing again, creating a cycle of binge eating. To learn more ways to hep you go to: “HOW DO I LOSE WEIGHT NOW?”. See how Margarite dropped two pant sizes fast!
Treatment Strategies – Eating disorders can be treated and a healthy weight restored. The sooner these disorders are diagnosed and treated, the better the outcomes are likely to be. Because of their complexity, eating disorders require a consistent comprehensive treatment plan involving monitoring, nutritional counseling and, when appropriate, medication management.
The primary goal of treatment for bulimia is to reduce or eliminate binge eating and purging behavior. To this end, nutritional rehabilitation, psychosocial intervention, and medication management strategies are often employed.
Achieving Biochemical Balance – Establishment of a pattern of regular, non-binge meals, improvement of attitudes related to the eating disorder, encouragement of healthy but not excessive exercise, and resolution of co-occurring conditions such as mood or anxiety disorders are among the specific aims of these strategies. If you are totally out of control please seek medical advice right away.
I have found that when we usually a weight loss program we will drastically drop our calorie intake too quickly. Some even drop below 1,000 calories a day and that can be dangerous if done long term. However, many fad diets and diet clinics will dip far below the maintenance caloric level, and that can put the body in starvation self-defense mode depending on your starting body weight. Individuals who drastically cut calories below 1,000, or their caloric maintenance level, frequently develop binging habits. Don’t feel bad if you have been on binges. At least half the individuals that regularly diet, including fad diets, engage in active binging.
A binge is not necessarily a form of weakness or will power, but rather it is associated with an imbalance correlated with a low-caloric diet. Not only does a low calorie diet put the body in a starvation defense, but it also affects the thyroid by, slowing down the metabolism, in turn, storing more fat. AAHH! That is the complete opposite of what you want.
The body’s defense in correcting the imbalanced thyroid takes place through binges that makes the thyroid active once again. After a binge,an excess amount of calories has been ingested, and out of guilt and punishment, we starve ourselves again. This type of behavior is a form of yo-yo dieting and leads to even more weight gain.
To combat binges, take control over your eating habits. This is where mental strength and focus can help you.
You must supply your body with brain fuel to function and low glycemic foods to balance your blood chemistry. A binge is not a sign of weakness, but is a result of a disruption in the thyroid. Allow yourself the maintenance number of calories a day for your body, and grant yourself a cheat day to keep the thyroid and metabolism active and functioning properly. Starving yourself will not result in weight loss, but eating consistently right will.
Effective Tips and Techniques to Gain Control and WIN!
1. Fuel Up – Balance Blood Sugar. Always eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day because it sets your metabolism for the day, and makes the body start burning calories. Eating breakfast, complete with low glycemic complex carbohydrates and protein will prevent a binge later in the afternoon or evening.
2. Evening Eating Plan. Keep your last meal three hours before bed, preferably a serving of protein and a serving of vegetables, to keep insulin levels low. High calories and/or excessive starchy complex carbohydrates have a greater chance to be stored as fat, as well as prompt midnight cravings.
3. Eat 5 to 6 Small Meals a Day. Space them out. Constant small meals, prevent hunger and decreases carbohydrate and sugar cravings. Smaller, more frequent meals will keep you full, and signals your body that it is not starving. Constant fueling will prevent binges.
4. Use Protein Power. Have a serving of protein and a serving of good complex carbohydrates with each meal. The added protein will keep your insulin from shooting sky high. Consistent levels of increased insulin are linked with binges, due to the carbohydrate cravings it causes.
5. Tricky Tactics. Rotate your carbohydrates to manipulate your body, and to keep your metabolism working for you. The carbohydrate rotation method will help curb binges since it allows the body to feast on good carbohydrates to a certain extent, yet not to where will be storing them as fat.
6. Fat Equals Full. Increase good fat intake such as nuts, natural peanut butter, olive oil, flaxseed oil, etc. The added natural fat will help blunt binges because it provides the body essential elements to keep things in balance.
7. Quench The Desire. Drink more liquids. Water is an important nutrient for proper body functions, as well as a natural appetite suppressant. More water in equals more water out. Many times what you think is hunger is really thirst. So drink a glass of water slowly before you at anything and start doing something you need to do and see if you still want to eat everything in sight after ten minutes. Many times you will see your desire subside and you will have the strength to stay on your program.
To help you reclaim your power today and restore control begin with this philosophy. What you think about comes about is always in operation in our world.
I was a total binge-purge eater through my high school and college lifetime. I tried programs and what I call self-discipline groups, but never found total release from the destructive disorder. I had to have a complete paradigm shift. I had to give up the Messiah syndrome, the martyrdom or sacrificing myself for everyone else, program. I had to reprogram my mind and release the things and people I could not carry, change or support any longer. I put my energy and focus on saving me first. I learned how to take care of my personal desires without guilt shame or feeling selfish. I did it. And that is what has allowed me the privilege of becoming a great success and now I can give from my overflow of joy and peace and prosperity. It was one of the greatest gifts I gave myself.
What You Focus on Expands
If you think about what’s wrong all the time, you get defeated, hopeless and you go for the ice cream to soothe your soul. A better way to reprogram your thinking is think about what you want. Think about what is good and possible. You can read more about this in my “HOW DO I LOSE WEIGHT NOW?” PROGRAM.
My client, Rosa, was invited to a wedding where the food at the reception was served buffet style. There were so many tantalizing foods, and all her choices were good ones, she just happen to go back to the old habit of over eating and felt guilty afterward.
When we met, she shared with me that she felt awful afterward and decided to just go ahead binge crazy and eat what ever she wanted the rest of the evening since she felt she had blown it. I shared with her that a better response to the over eating would have been to make the next meal lighter or to eliminate the next meal completely if it over extends her the daily caloric limit. She still would have lost weight for the week. Also, making up for the extra calories can be done with an extra workout session.
Eating food not on our plan should never stop us from continuing the day in excellence. It is part of the learning process we go through to be victorious over our eating patterns that have not served us well and learning about strategies we can implement better the next time. Now, yes, one piece of candy or one serving of a high-fat food source can diminish our weight loss efforts for the week.
Never Quit – In the End..Your Will Wins!
That is why we work hard to make every effort to succeed. However, we don’t let a temporary set back send us over the edge. We jump back up, pick up our exercise shoes, put them on, and continue down the road toward weight loss victory. The main thing to always remember is to never quit. You may stop temporarily, but never give up. You can begin again as often as you need to. Once you understand that getting fit and lean is a mind game, you are on your way.

It’s a Miracle – Green Tea For Weight Loss
Drinking green tea for weight loss is fantastic for you especially if you want to lose weight naturally. It is the perfect cost effective weight loss secret that can be drunk like all herbal teas, sometimes with lemon, lime, non-caloric flavorings and sweeteners.
It’s everywhere you go now. You can find it in grocery stores on the shelf, you can find green tea extract in health food stores that can give you the effects of green tea for weight loss in capsule form .
My Favorite is to grab a bottle in the cold beverage section of a market or deli.
How Does It Help You Lose Weight?
First let’s be clear that all weight loss aids must be used in conjunction with a healthy eating plan and/or an exercise program. To lose weight, you have to either eat less or exercise more. Nothing will help you lose weight if you keep eating the holiday high sugar treats or if you choose to be too busy to work out and heal your body.
Research studies have shown that green tea is believed to help you to burn more calories by increasing your core metabolic rate. Imagine drinking and losing weight! That is totally cool.
Drinking Green Tea Pumps Up The Metabolism
It does this by stimulating the body’s thermogenesis process, which turns fat into energy. So using green tea for weight loss is believed to help your body burn fat. It works a little like the drug ephidrine but is not considered to have the same risks for heart health.
In theory, green tea can have a weight loss effect even if you do not change your diet. However, in practice, this effect would be slow, and there is a risk that a person who was not paying attention to their diet would simply eat more to compensate for the energy that is burned. So it is important to exercise some control around food and at least be sure that your calorie consumption has not increased.
Now That You Are Fired Up, Get Moving!
You might also want to apply that extra energy by starting an exercise program. Regular exercise can assist with weight loss in two ways: first by burning calories while you exercise, and second by increasing the metabolic rate so that there is a slight increase in calories burned even when the body is at rest.
A good time to take green tea for weight loss is around 30-60 minutes before a meal and 20 minutes before you workout.
It does contain some caffeine so it is best to reduce your consumption of coffee or regular tea by replacing those drinks with green tea. If you don’t usually consume any caffeine, it is better not to drink green tea after midday so that it does not affect your sleep.
Skip the Caffeine
Decaffeinated green tea is available but studies suggest that the fat-burning catechin is often removed along with the caffeine so using decaffeinated green tea for weight loss is not so effective.
