Are you ready to let go of the bloated, puffy feeling that seems to
accompany you everywhere you go?

When the clock strikes 3:00pm do you find yourself in an afternoon haze,
unable to focus, get the energy to do anything, and wishing you could either
take a nap or stuff your face with sugar and caffeine (which you often
actually do?)

After dinner do you continue to open the refrigerator and pantry doors,
never feeling satisfied and continuing to eat until your head hits the
pillow at night?

If you answered YES to one or more of the questions above, We can help you.

It’s time to RESET.

“Weight loss is entirely possible any time you make a resolution to lose
weight. Keeping your blood sugar stable and avoiding deprivation are absolutely
essential to success. There are many, many ways to do this. But as a physician,
I’ve rarely seen a program as easy and effective as RESET.” – Dr. Christiane
Northrup

Make a resolution that sticks.

So many people make a decision to make a change at the beginning of the year.
Yet so many of us find ourselves going back to our old ways within a week or
two. This year we are going to help you make a resolution that sticks.

RESET is a clinically-proven, 5-day high-fiber cleanse that actually RESETs
your
metabolism and ELIMINATES your sugar/carb cravings as you:

* detox

* boost your mood

* increase your energy level

* balance your hormones

* improve your sleep

* increase clarity

* and release fat!

Doctors and health-care practitioners worldwide such
as women’s health pioneer, Christiane Northrup, M.D. and nutritional
medicine expert, Ray Strand, M.D, recommend RESET.

Release unwanted weight.

People who do the RESET program loose between 5 and 10 pounds during the
5-day, high-fiber cleanse. It’s a great way to lose excess
weight gained during the holidays or kick-start a larger weight loss goal. We
will hold your hand through implementing healthy lifestyle habits that result
in weight loss.

Get rid of your carb and sugar cravings.

RESET retrains your body using the principles of low-glycemic eating so that
you no longer crave sugar and refined carbohydrates.

Join us to ensure your success.

Studies show that when it comes to losing weight and creating lasting change in
our habits and lifestyle, partnering with even one other person increases your
chances of success dramatically. We are putting together a team of people who
want to get rid of their carb cravings and lose a few pounds (or more). We’d
love to have you on the team. If something deep inside you is saying YES [1]let
us know right now .Join our team today and make a commitment to making this
year’s resolution a lifetime resolution.

Keep it simple. Keep it easy.

RESET doesn’t require juicing, fasting, intricate food preparation, starving
yourself, being in the gym for hours at a time, or paying thousands of dollars.
It’s 5-days of low-glycemic meal and snack replacements, lots of water, and
fruits and vegetables. It comes in a box with everything you need to release
weight and eliminate your cravings successfully (just add water, fruits, and
vegetables.) It’s so simple you can’t screw it up. We promise.

Get the support you need.

We are getting a team of people together to do the RESET as a group with our
support. RESET and the principles of low-glycemic eating changed our
relationship with food forever. We believe in this program because it’s what
keeps us slim, healthy, and happy (along with OutdoorFit of course). We’ve also
guided many others through the program, helping them loose 5, 25, and even 45
pounds . Pat lost 14 pounds on the program!

Nina is working to prevent these sorts of needless deaths from childbirth by building a Maternity Ward in Sierra Leone. She has started a foundation called One World Women’s Health which is committed to improving women’s health care in Sierra Leone. In January 2012, she is once again traveling there with a medical team to perform gyn surgery and to educate the Sierra Leonean community about the importance of utilizing the Maternity Ward in order to save women’s and children’s lives.  Nina needs all the help she can get to make her hopes a reality and we at OutdoorFit would like to contribute.

We are holding a Charity workout on Saturday, December 17th at Fair Haven Fields @ 9AM.  The Fair Haven Department of Recreation is donating the use of the Fields free of charge and Christa and I are donating our time to instruct. The normal drop in rate of $20 will apply and ALL proceeds will go toward the cause of One World Women’s Health.  Come Saturday and we will have a great workout as always and your money will go to a great cause helping women.

Hot Cocoa!!!

Do a cookie search on the blog and you will find some great recipes for low-glycemic cookies that won’t spike your blood sugar.

Here is the recipe for our OutdoorFit Energy Cookie. I am going to try them again this year but I am going to reduce the amount of honey and use stevia instead.

Please send healthy treat recipes and I will post them on the blog!

It is so important to stay on good supplements all year-long but especially during the winter months. Antioxidants protects against  inflammation from all of those chocolate chip cookies.

Here’s to a Healthy Holiday Season!

Get through the kid-vitamin gauntlet

Vibrant One
Vibrant Health Note ♪
Yes Virginia, you can convince your kids to take their vitamins. Here’s how:

• Don’t give up too fast. It took me two weeks of consistent focus with my then 2 and 7 year-olds for these tricks to work.

• Bribe them. Not with presents, but dessert perhaps, or a favorite story, or extra time awake before bed. Little bribes – not the same ones every night or they’ll take advantage of you.

• Take your vitamins, visibly.

• Tell them why it’s so important. Talk about the toxins in our environment and the diminishing nutritional value in food. Tell them that their cells need fuel. Kids really dig health, and with just a little effort you can totally get them on the bandwagon. Which is a huge plus, by the way – because they will keep you there too!

• Sticker charts work for everything.

• Appreciation is rare and priceless – praise them as they gulp and shudder, no matter how long the cajoling took.

Seriously, 2 weeks is all it took with my kids – and now they love spinach, kale, even the occasional cup of green juice. And they know which vitamins are theirs, get them ready every morning and night, and are tuned-in to their bodies. Totally worth the bribes.

Godspeed!
Maddy

P.S. Quality is key – don’t waste your efforts on a gummy or a cartoon character.

Small changes can have a huge impact.
We are creating a wellness community with OutdoorFit. We talk about balance eating of protein, carbs and healthy fats. We know the importance of exercise and high quality supplements, for ourselves and our kids.

The changes need to start with you. Are you ready?

Here goes…take a deep breath through your nose. Inhale and Exhale.

egg wrap
Created by Dana Fallon, DMD, Cyclist and Health Coach with Renew Wellness. Dana specializes in sports nutrition. He includes race day tips in the recipe.

Dana’s Note:
Go for pasture-raised organic eggs whenever possible. Eggs are an excellent source of protein and don’t worry about cholesterol, it is an essential component of our cells as well as a crucial element in fighting inflammation. Dietary cholesterol has a minimal impact on serum cholesterol. Please, eat the whole egg!

what goes in:
1 t olive oil or coconut oil ½ c diced mushrooms 1 c chopped kale (or green of choice) 2 eggs a dash or two of turmeric (anti-inflammatory) hot sauce, chili sauce, or salsa to taste salt & pepper corn tortillas (non-GMO) options: avocado cooked sweet potato shredded cheese cooked rice

putting it together:
• Saute the mushrooms and kale in oil over medium heat. • Crack your eggs on top and cover till cooked. • Meanwhile, toast your tortillas if desired. • Assemble, include options and top with seasoning of choice. This dish fits well as an ideal start to the day, lunch plate or lighter dinner. You can wrap this in wax paper and take it on the road if needed. If you choose this as an early breakfast before a race: keep the spices to a minimum or don’t include them at all and be sure to add rice or potato. Allow plenty of time for digestion.

Breakfast, Lunch, or Dinner!
