Don't underestimate the power of V3 Weight Management Complex.  I'm still a fatty, but with the V3 diet pill I get up and move like I'm still a kid.  For those who don't believe it, I had to do a video just to show you.  Keep in mind folks that I have arthritis in both my knees.  Before I began taking V3, I had trouble walking up just two flights of stairs.  I'm only in my 30s, yet I have the knees of an much older woman. 

Since I've been on the V3 diet, nothing has stopped me from taking stairs.  Not even the high flights of stair at the water park.  Even if I didn't lose anymore weight, which I have been gracefully, just to not have any pain in my knees is enough for me.  Don't forget to stop by my YouTube channel What's Your Diet  and subscribe.

Thrive Apple Cinnamon Energy Bars


Triathlete Brendan Brazier shared these raw energy bar recipes with us. While energy bars can be pricey, you can make them at home to control costs.



INGREDIENTS
1 small apple, cored
1 c dates
1/2 c cooked quinoa
1/4 c almonds
1/4 c flaxseed
1/4 c hemp protein (or your favorite protein powder)
2 t cinnamon
1/2 t nutmeg

DIRECTIONS
In a food processor, process all ingredients until desired texture is reached. If you prefer a uniformly smooth bar, process longer. If you would rather a bar with more crunch and texture, blend for less time.

Remove mixture from processor and either shape into balls or a brick. To roll into balls, simply pinch off a desired amount and roll between your hands. To roll into a brick, which you can cut into bars, places mixture on plastic wrap and flatten, covering with another layer of plastic wrap. Use a rolling pin to roll mixture to the desired thickness, then cut into bars.

How to Lose Belly Fat Without Exercising

This is always a magical question, especially for women.  How to lose belly fat without exercising.  Well this is really not that hard to do, all that is required is that you eat.  While you must be mindful of the food that you eat, remember in order to keep that tire deflated you have to eat healthier foods.  Berries are good fat burners, but if you want to target that midsection be sure to include melons like cantaloupe and honeydew into the mix.  Increase foods that include vitamin C such as oranges and grapefruits.  Nuts, while they are high in fat content, they are great for burning fat.  They are a great source of protein and help you to feel full longer.

For those who like to have a drink or two every now and then, you will be happy to know that having a glass of wine daily will help burn off belly fat. So you can have a glass of wine with your salmon dinner and kill to birds with one stone.  Salmon is the best source of Omega 3 outside of flax seed, which helps to burn those dinner rolls away.  Now if you must have a roll with your dinner, make it a whole grain roll to be sure it doesn't add more rolls to your belly.

I have incorporated these methods into my diet along with the help of my V3 and I must say it is working.  I found this video that speaks on this enjoy.  Please comment.

5 Fat Burning Foods

While I believe that diets don't work, it is still important to watch what we eat to promote healthy bodies. I'll be honest in saying that I do still treat myself to some McDonald's fries every now and then, however over all I do eat sensibly. I eat fresh salads at least three times a week, plenty of fruits and nuts and controlled portions. Drinking plenty of water is absolutely necessary to promote healthy digestion. To keep down bloating, stay away from carbonated drinks.  While fruit juice is a good alternative, they are usually high in caloric intake due to the natural sugar, so don't over do it.  

Here is a video I found on fat burning foods.  Foods such as this help me tremendously when I started my weight loss journey.


How much is too much?

People come up with every reason in the world not to do something for the right reason.  Are you selling yourself short.  Really, ask yourself, how much is too much to invest in yourself.  Aren't you tired of constantly going to the doctor to find out what's wrong now or to have prescriptions filled.  When you take the time to concentrate on losing weight, things such as thing will diminish.  Think of all the things you pay for for the wrong reasons, instead of for the right reasons.  You should never put a price on your health.
