My fitness journey started back in 2002 when I joined a gym to lose some weight I’d gained over the years of working long shifts, eating pizza, and drinking Pepsi everyday. 
It wasn’t until I changed gym locations about 2 years later I realized what I was doing wrong and what I needed to do in order to make my goals a reality. I started taking my now personal trainer’s boot camp class every Wednesday of the week, soon after I competed in a 7-week fat loss challenge.
 It required me to wake up at 4AM, 4 days a week for an hour-long workout. I won first place in this challenge! Then I decided to compete in my first NPC competition. And I won 3rd place. The rest seems to be history with a lot of hard work, research, and dedication. 

Eat More Fruit! Food health Weight loss

 Eat More Fruit!  Yes, I know that the article  title is a bit abrupt but I cannot overemphasize how important fruits are as part of a sensibly structured fat reduction diet.

Fruits are packed with all the nutrients for example  vitamins, minerals and fiber, that you need to stay healthy and to lose the fat.

I have discovered that you should eat fruit in a certain way if you want to get the maximum benefit from it. The first thing is, you should only eat ripe fruit, because the entire process of ripening is akin to human digestion. Hence, ripe fruit is already ‘broken down’ and really easy for your body to absorb the goodness from.

Secondly, you should eat ripe fruit on an empty stomach, giving it 30 to 45 minutes before you consume anything else. Doing things in this way means that you get the maximum benefit from the fruit that you have consumed, whereas if you eat fruit after a meal (for example), it will sit on the top of that food in your stomach and rot.

Follow your fruit with water, and you will have the maximum benefits from what you eaten, and you will feel full before you start your next meal. Together, water and fruit act as a natural appetite suppressant, helping you to cut down on the amount of calories you are taking in.

You will find many fruits in the ‘Super Foods’ list, such as apples, bananas, blueberries and raspberries, so whichever of these most match your tastes, go for it!
