Nutrition-and-Exercise
We all have a moment in our lives when we look at our surroundings, lifestyle choices or other situations and decide something has to give. It took me about 50 pounds of weight gain for me to realize that the smaller ‘bad’ choices that I had made over the course of a few years added up to some massive weight gain.
I didn’t think there was a lot of importance in eating breakfast as a way to start off my day. I would just grab a cup of coffee and be out the door. But as I exercised more, I discovered that I was not getting enough calories to sustain a full workout. I started eating 5 balanced meals (40% carbs, 30% protein and 30% fats) totaling 1800 daily calories and that is when I started to see major results.
As I thought about getting into better shape I thought that going back to the gym to lift a few weights, run on a treadmill and play some basketball would get it done. Wrong. That is where exercising and nutrition comes in.
I know many of us struggle with breakfast due to time, kids, work and everything else, so one solution that I used, and continue to this day, is Shakeology. Shakeology is a quick, easy and very effective way to get your day started off right and with 70 natural ingredients, it keeps your body functioning at the high levels needed to get into the best shape of your life. By drinking one shake each morning, my metabolism receives a boost and I'm more prepared for my day. When I combined Shakeology with a strong exercise program, I began losing weight and now I'm in the best shape of my life. I have muscle tone and, better yet, tons of energy! Many different types of meal replacement shakes are on the market. Be sure to choose one with natural ingredients and fortified with many vitamins.
