Frozen Foods Weight Loss Secret

Jessica Bartfield, MD, an internal medicine physician who specializes in nutrition and weight management at Loyola University Health System has a weight loss secret that’s also low-cost. Frozen foods that are low-calorie, nutritious and portion controlled have several advantages as a dieting strategy.

Bartfield said in a press release there are good reasons to consider replacing at least one meal a day with frozen entree.

For one, meal replacement is proven to work, shown in multiple studies. A recent study published in 2011 in the New England journal of medicine supported eating meal replacements as a dieting strategy.

A study published August, 2011 and published in the journal Appetite, showed just eating a lighter lunch can lead to 25 pounds of weight loss in a year, supporting the
notion that substituting your usual fare with just one frozen meal could help you meet your weight loss goals.

More patients who incorporated meal replacements into their weight-loss plan achieved a clinically significant 5 percent weight loss, according to several major studies,” said Bartfield.

Most frozen meals provide 200 to 350 calories. In order to safely lose weight she recommends consuming 1000 to 1800 calories a day, depending on your age, weight, height and gender.

If you need more calories Dr. Bartfield recommends adding a little extra protein or some fruit to your meal.

In addition to providing an inexpensive, portion controlled and nutritious dieting option Bartfield explains ‘Low-calorie frozen meals provide convenience, structure and calorie control, which leads to better adherence and weight loss.”

Five reasons frozen meals help weight loss

1. You won’t waste food. Bartfield says because frozen foods have a long shelf life, your meals aren’t likely to go bad, unlike fresh meats and produce. Meal replacements can be easily found on sale and there are little differences in brands. She recommends buying what’s on sale.

2. When you’re hungry frozen foods are readily available, easy to prepare quickly and a healthier choice that can replace high fat fast foods after a long workday.

3. Nutritional information is easy to read. Bartfield says it’s important to check the sodium content and buy frozen meals that have less than 600 mg of salt. If you have diabetes or high blood pressure sodium content should be under 400 mg. It’s also important to look in the calories and choose meals that are less than 350 calories or meals that fit into your total calorie goals for the day.

4. There’s no measuring, counting or weighing to calculate calories in a frozen meal replacement.

5. You can buy frozen foods for any meal. There are a variety of options that include Mexican, Chinese, Italian foods and vegetarian. You can also find a low calorie snacks and desserts.

Bartfield also says it’s important to add low calorie frozen vegetables or fruit balance your meals. Adding a side dish can add fiber which also makes you feel full.

“Eating is all about choices, and healthy frozen foods can be a win-win in the diet food debate,” she says.

Losing weight leads to better health. Maintaining a normal body mass index can thwart heart disease, diabetes, control and even prevent chronic and lower your risk for cancer.

If you’re looking for a nutritious, low cost, easy and convenient approach to dieting consider stocking up on portion controlled frozen foods that can be eaten at any meal.

Alex Rodriguez Flirting with the Ladies

Alex Rodriguez is a baseball player who plays for the New York Yankees. He has hit a rough patch in his career though and you know this if you follow baseball or the Yankees. It seems like these days he can’t hit a baseball to save his life, good thing for contracts. This is a big deal because he gets paid the most money on the New York Yankees payroll. Still, it’s obvious that he always has time for the ladies.

At the ALCS game Alex Rodriguez was seen flirting with two women. He just faced a strike out in the eighth inning when this occurred. Rodriguez wrote on a baseball and gave it to the girls. The message on the baseball asked the girls to write their numbers on it and give the baseball back to him. One girl did as Alex suggested.

Alex Rodriguez Flirts with Women

For me personally, it’s good to see Alex Rodriguez not feeling down about his slump. He’s extremely talented, and I’m sure he’ll get his groove back. He found another alternative to make himself happy which was women. This usually works with most men, glad A-Rod decided to use it too. Having the girls respond positively to his advances had to make him feel good about himself. Especially at a time when he’s probably getting much scrutiny and criticism.

On the other hand, what he did at these playoffs might turn a lot of fans off. They might think, “oh, he has enough time to flirt but not enough time to focus and practice on his professional game.” It might come off to fans that Alex Rodriguez doesn’t care. Too many people spend their hard earned money on this playoff game for a baseball player not to care. Hey are we paying for wins or entertainment or both? I’m sure the Yanks wanted a headline that reads “Alex Rodriguez Flirts with Women!”

Hurricane Sandy is Wild Ride

There is big coverage over Hurricane Sandy. It’s been one of the most serious hurricanes in a long time. Probably since the likes of Hurricane Katrina, Sandy is making headlines as the next nature destroyer. Mitt Romney and Barack Obama had to change their campaign schedules due to Hurricane Sandy. It’s possible that the storm could injure up to 50 million people. Before we consider the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy let’s get more information on exactly what is going on.

Hurricane Sandy is Affecting the Midwest

Hurricane Sandy is supposed to hit hard in New Jersey Monday night or Tuesday morning. Then it’s supposed to travel to Pennsylvania and then New York. New York is expected to get hit the hardest. Hurricane Sandy is supposed to produce water the height of eleven feet by the time it gets to New York.

Some people will do anything for a view

Federal Emergency Management Administrator said time for preparing is over. They said the people should be taking action now. Governor Chris Christie said “Don’t be stupid. Get Out.” If your governor is that hardcore I believe people should take heed to his words. It makes sense though because Hurricane Sandy has the potential to flood most of the city. That’s a great potential.

Hurricane Sandy Has Up to 16 People Dead

There have already been major flight delays. Subways, buses, and schools will also be closed. That means over 1 million students and over 5 million riders will have to stay home until the hurricane passes. Still, Obama has said we should get through Hurricane Sandy just fine. That is the sound of optimism and that is what we need despite the realities of what the storm will do. He said we should definitely check on our neighbors to make sure they’re okay. I pray everyone stays safe and acts in a humble courageous manner.

Hurricane Sandy is Going to Be a Wild Ride

Give a helping hand for those who cannot afford to get out and who are unable due to physical condition. Hurricane Sandy is serious and we need to take it serious.

Should Cleveland Bus Driver Get His Job Back

Video is at bottom of article!

There was an heated altercation between a Cleveland bus driver and a female passenger days ago. The bus driver’s name is Atris Hughes and the female’s name is Shidea N. Lane. Shidea is twenty-five years old and the bus driver looks like he might be in his 50s or 60s (59 was reported). There were many passengers on the bus witnessing the situation. Many of the passengers pulled out their phones to record the incident. We are asking if the Cleveland Bus Driver Get His Job Back?

Should Cleveland Bus Driver Get His Job?

The story is, Artis Hughes told Shidea Lane she needed to pay to get on the bus. Shidea took offence to what Artis said and she started to verbally attack him. Artis, the Cleveland bus driver, started to verbally attack Shidea back as well. Many people on the bus started to laugh. The argument got even more heated and Shidea started to get out of hand. She spit on Hughes and then physically attacked him while he was actually driving the bus. He stopped the bus and told the girl “You’re going to hell now”.  She proceeded to verbally attack the bus driver, then he out of the blue uppercuts her and literally throws her off the bus. Artis Hughes has been suspended from his job, and the incident is still under investigation.

Now I’m not an advocate of men hitting women, but clearly Shidea Lane was in the wrong. She’s cursing out the bus driver because he’s telling her she needs to pay like everyone else. There were many people saying he shouldn’t have taken it that far too uppercut Shidea because she’s a female. I agree, but I also say why wasn’t she acting like a female the whole time? I noticed in the video nobody said anything when she physically attacked him first. Nobody shouted out, “GIRL BE A LADY, and stop the bullsh&t!” It didn’t become a REAL issue until he physically attacked her or as she said “mortal combated her.”

Should Cleveland Bus Driver Get His Job Back After Vicious Uppercut

Earlier I said, many people thought he took it too far, but surprisingly there have been many people who thought he did the right thing. There are even women who have taken the side of Artis instead of Shidea. Shidea was clearly reckless in her behavior. She was looking for trouble and she found it and it just so happen to be more trouble than she thought it would be.

Should Cleveland Bus Driver Get His Job Back After Vicious Uppercut To Female

So the question remains: Should Cleveland Bus Driver Get his Job Back After Vicious Uppercut To Female Passenger? My answer is he should absolutely get his job back. I’m not the only one who has these views. There are even people on Facebook who got a group together to help Artis Hughes get his job back. I’m sorry you got hit like that Shidea Lane, but you are definitely NOT the only victim in this situation. One guy in my barbershop said that she took the punch for all the females out there that display reckless behavior. Violence is never right, but sometimes violence corrects a situation.

The moral to the story is that HUMANS should not put hands on other people because you run the risk of them behavior like warriors in retaliation. Also we should keep calm and allow the authorities handle our vengeance. He should have just picked her butt up and removed her from the bus and waited on the police. Live and learn people!
