Whether or not you’re a football fan there is a very good chance you’ll be heading to a Super Bowl party this Sunday.
And as you are fully aware, these parties can be VERY hazardous to your waistline. But hey, it’s not hard to keep the pounds from packing on while watching (or ignoring) the Colts vs. the Saints.
Here are three Super Simple tips to keep you slim this Sunday:
1) Take a 15 minute walk during halftime to stimulate your metabolism and improve digestion
2) Limit alcohol consumption. Not only are these “empty calories”, but they also cause you to make poor food choices. And if you’re hungover on Monday, well, you’ll make poor food choices the day after the game, too!
3) Sure, you can enjoy some of your favorite “guilty pleasures” but you MUST avoid hanging around the snack table nibbling on everything in site.
BONUS TIP: Oftentimes when we feel hungry it is our body craving the proper nutrients it needs to be fueled with. That’s a great reason to take a Whole Foods based multi-vitamin like Prograde Nutrition’s VGF 25+
See, it’s not so hard! Enjoy the big game.
Yours in health,

Are you getting much of these?
It’s recommended that we eat 6-10 fruits and vegetables a day. Here in the States it is reported the actual average of fruits and veggies eaten each day is just 2.
Yup, just 2.
Now, I don’t know where you stand on this, but overall, it really is a sad state of nutritional affairs.
But don’t worry It’s not that tough to get more fruits and veggies in each day.
Here are some super simple tips to get you started:
1) Buy ‘em pre-chopped
Look, I can be lazy, too 
There’s nothing wrong with not wanting to go through the hassle of having to chop up fruits and veggies. If you want to buy them pre-chopped go ahead. It’s much better for you than not eating them.
2) Carry ‘em with you
Load up a plastic baggie with your pre-chopped veggies and bring them to work. Seriously, see how easy this can be!
3) Add real fruit to your yogurt
Have some yogurt for breakfast and add some fresh blueberries, raspberries or blackberries. It’s that simple!
Bonus tip: A great way to provide your body with the nutritional foundation you need each day is a Whole Foods based multi-vitamin. I’m a proud Prograde Nutrition partner and they have a terrific product called VGF 25+ that is made from 25 veggies, greens and fruits.
The best part is you can try Prograde’s VGF 25+ for FREE! (There’s just a small S & H charge)

In one of my recent coumns for the Herald Mail entitled “Know Your Knuclehead Trainers”, I described some the trainers that I feel give our industry a black eye. One of these is the “out of shape” trainer. This trainer isn’t in presentable physical condition, and usaullay can be seen eating McDonald’s at least once a day.
Well, I got an e-mail from a reader who took offense to this description. In the e-mail she describes her brother who is in college studying exercise science, and is training atheletes to support himself. She says that I was being harsh and judgemental because her brother really doesn’t have time to workout due to his college and training schedule, and that with my attitude, she would hate to be one of my clients.
So here’s where I need your opinion. Re-read the column HERE and give me your opinion. Was I being too harsh? Or was i right on point? Leave your comments and let me know!
