Everywhere you turn there is someone telling you how you can have junk food as part of your "healthy" diet.
I have one word in response to that "BULLSHIT!"
Cookies, candy, cake, burgers, hot dogs, beer... etc are not healthy.. no matter how you make them.
I am not saying you should never eat them. I am saying that don't try to convince yourself or anyone else that it is healthy.
If you want healthy food look to nature. Real Food spoils. Real Food has a very quick expiration date.
If your food will last on your kitchen counter more than 3 or 4 days without going bad it probably isn't good for you!
The newest trend in "nutritional science" is to classify health based on caloric intake. This is just plain stupid. There are too many nutritionists out there who are telling people they can eat anything they want and be healthy if they stay within certain caloric guidlelines. Most people are running around malnourished because everything they eat is processed junk... but they are staying withing their "healthy" caloric needs.
You want to be healthy and full of energy? Then get your butt to the produce aisle and buy some REAL FOOD!

Hip Openers
Alot of people have been coming to me with back and hip problems. Most of our back and hip problems come from our butt. The following videos demonstrate some yoga poses that will stretch the hips, back and butt to relieve some of the pain and pressure. Make sure you check with a Dr before starting an exercise program to make sure you are healthy and injury free.

5 Easy Weight Loss Tips
Exercise Is Essential For Healthy Weight Loss
You should strive for five 30 minute sessions per week to maintain long term weight loss.
Keep A Food Diary
A food diary can provide a large amount of self-awareness. It can identify emotions and behaviors that trigger overeating and foster greater awareness of portion sizes.
Focus On Being Healthy .. Not On Being Thin
Many people become more successful at long term weight loss when their motivation changes from wanting to be thinner to wanting to be healthier. You should eat to give your body the nutrients it needs for optimal health.
Make Sure Portion Sizes Are Appropriate
With the advent of "super-size" meals and increasingly huge portions at restaurants, our concept of normal serving sizes is a distant memory. Be mindful of the amounts of food you consume.
Eat Slowly
It takes the brain 20 minutes to start signaling feelings of fullness. The amount of calories consumed before you begin to feel full can vary significantly depending on how quickly you eat. So slow down, take smaller bites and enjoy
