You Can Eat Your Way to a Slimmer Healthier Body. No More Diets, Just Eat What You Want, With Proven Recipes for Good Health and Weight Loss

Tuesday, August 11th, 2009

Did you know that for the first time obesity statistics show that there are now more obese people than those who are overweight?

I know that our economy crisis prevents us to be a stay at home mom or dad.  We all have to work two and sometimes three jobs to make ends meet. Fast food, they say, is the culprit for so much weight gain.  Don’t you think it’s time to take the bull by the horns and do something about it?  Wouldn’t it make sense to cook, using a new concept?  What is this new concept?  It is merely cooking the food and baking the way you always did, but, using different products.  These products are simply substitutes for the High Fat and High Sugar products used for years. 

I have dedicated myself to creating recipes that are identical, in every way to the ones we consume now.  With the proper use of, sugar free honey, for instance,you can eliminate any brown sugar from your recipe.  No taste change.  No aftertaste.  Cookies flatten properly during the baking process.  They smell delicious and taste even better.  There was a time, you had to refrigerate all sugar free baked goods, immediately.  If you did not, the goodies were stale within twenty four hours.  No longer is this necessary, except for food and cheesecake, for instance, which must be refrigerated anyway.

Along with my two cookbooks, “Theresa’s Solution to Smart Cooking” and Theresa’s Solution to Smart Baking” I have added a New cookbook, “Little Chef, Series #One, on my website  In my cooking school, I had the privilege to teach children from ages nine and up to teenage, the simple art of cooking.  This was when I realized how much help children could be to their hard working parents.  I also realized,  while  observing some of the kids, they were amazed at how much math, reading and comprension went into cooking. What a marvelous and exciting observation this was.  We all must eat, three meals a day to stay healthy. Why not gather up some trust, and allow your children to help with meals.  You and dad have too much to do and cooking is like doing an exciting craft for the kids.  If you could imagine the pride in their faces, when they cook something, and it tasts great and looks wonderful,  Some of the recipes in the Little Chef’s book, are planned around simplicity and no cleanup.  They simply prepare meals, using aluminum foil sheets, folded into a large bag ready for the oven when you get home.

Best of all, even these recipes are Low in Fat and Low in Sugar calories.  The snacks and candy recipes are perfect for you and the children to eat, without weight gain.  We must do something about the Obesitity crisis, not only for you, but your children are in for a world of medical disasters if you don’t help yourself and them to reverse obesity. 

If you, or your children want to talk to me, go to my Forum at www.theresasolution.net.  Ask me anything regarding food or your diet.  I will be happy to answer your questions.  This crisis is too serious to ignore. 

Theresa Duff, chef/ret. is a former member of the IACP. As a cookbook writer, her objective is to create recipes that are not fattening and are lower in sugar and fat calories, while retaining the taste and texture we all love. Theresa is an expert at recipe recreation, research and kitchen testing for diabetes and weight loss. She uses a smart concept in food preparation, while introducing her new ingredient technology.

What Is The Kindle? Why Do I Want One?

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

The Kindle 2 allows you to download a book from Amazon and read it just like you would a paperback book. The features and benefits of the Kindle are just short of fantastic. I have shelves and shelves of paperback books that could ALL fit into a Kindle. You can have all your favorite books right at your fingertips! The Kindle 2 will hold up to 1500 average size books! 1500!!

A paperback book costs anywhere from $9.99 or so on up to $40 or $50 dollars – Most books for the Kindle cost $9.99 – even best sellers! There is NO cost to download you’re books either. It works on a wireless network just like your cell phone, but there are NO contracts and NO monthly fees. It’s perfect!

You can also get most major newspapers delivered to your Kindle so that it’s waiting for you every morning – along with your coffee of course.

There are six different type sizes on the Kindle 2 – which means that many of just might be able to get rid of the darn reading glasses when using the Kindle! THAT’S worth a whole lot to me – I hate these reading glasses!

The Kindle 2 will read to you! If you’re driving or otherwise “hand occupied” you can easily have the Kindle read to you. I’m thinking …. cookbooks! How cool would it be to have your Kindle read a recipe to you while you prepare the ingredients – no back and forth to the book! And YES – they are cookbooks available for the Kindle. In fact there are over 230,000 titles currently available with more being added everyday.

The Kindle weighs 10 ounces, which is less than most paperback books – and certainly lighter than a hard cover book. I don’t know about you, but after and hour or so of reading my hands and fingers get tired. (I’m old, okay? LOL) With the light weight of the Kindle 2, I can read for hours with no discomfort at all! This is a great boon for those with arthritis in their hands, fingers and wrists.

The new Kindle 2 has added more battery life too. You can go days of reading before you have to recharge your Kindle. It comes with a wall charger or a USB cable so that you can hook it up to your computer for charging.

I not only like to read – I love to read and the Kindle 2 is going to revolutionize they way we all enjoy our reading!

Weight Loss: Healthy Weight Maintenance Information

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

When purchasing any weight loss product, it is important to do your research. Many people are exchanging their opinions about Weight Loss on DietBlogTalk.comFor an additional source, check out Weight Loss on the very popular Sensational.com

Why It Is Important To Maintain A Healthy WeightThere is a simple way to keep you heart, mind and body overall in good health: maintain a weight appropriate for your build, gender and age. Though it may seem like a simple matter, a healthy weight can prevent heart disease, high blood sugar and cholesterol, certain kinds of cancer, and depression; this is not to mention the obvious improvement in overall appearance and self-image. And despite what many people think about losing weight, it can be quite simple—a routine of healthy eating and daily exercise plus proper supplementation is often enough to take off and keep off extra weight.What To Look For In A DietA diet that is designed around healthy and permanent weight loss will be based on nourishment rather than deprivation. People who reach a healthy weight and maintain it usually do so by eating a well-rounded diet of fresh foods from each food group. Such a diet serves two purposes for the dieter by keeping hunger at bay while also stimulating the metabolism to burn faster. Diet guides, weight loss cookbooks, and structured meal plans can provide dieters with a way to stay focused on their goals.Exercise, too, can become easier when certain resources are employed. At-home exercise equipment is often a good way to exercise, as it is convenient for the dieter; workout DVDs and book-based programs provide a similar benefit. As long as the dieter is keeping up her heart rate for at least 30 minutes at a time, she can assume it has been a productive workout that may lead to weight loss. It is recommended that those losing weight stay active nearly every day in order to experience continuous benefits (fat being turned to energy, a faster metabolism, creation of lean muscle, etc).You may also want to try one of the proven weight loss supplements now available. When used in conjunction with diet and exercise they can offer some good assistance. Look for one with ingredients that burn fat and help to control the appetite and cravings.Where To Find Good InformationAny dieter seeking free information can find what they’re looking for online—there are many sites devoted to dieting, exercising and the products that make weight loss easier. You can tell a reputable weight loss site based on its affirmation of eating well and staying fit as the keys to weight loss; another indication is its unbiased look at supplements and equipment. A product site should feature comments from consumers or a user-run rating system. Message boards and forums that allow dieters to post can also be a great place to ask questions or find encouragement from others who are losing weight.ConclusionThankfully, the increase in obese and overweight people has been met with the creation of new resources to help all people lose weight. Maintaining an ideal weight yields so many benefits, from a great looking body to a healthy heart, that there is no reason to not start on the path to weight loss right away. Let today be the day you gather weight loss resources (cookbooks, guides, meal plans), exercise supports (equipment, DVDs, books by the experts) and online information so you can begin burning fat, defeating your cravings and working your way to a better you.
