Caution: This could change your life

Caution: This could change your life by Heather Grigoratos I have tried every diet on the market that you could think of. (More than 10 of them!) I was proud of the fact that I didn't eat big meals, that I was a grazer eating 5-6 small meals a day. I was just sick & tired of yoyo dieting watching my weight come down & being totally elated & happy with myself, only to watch it climb again after I had finally reached my goal weight! I was tired of feeling tired and lethargic, I was tired of hobbling out of bed because my joints ached in the morning.  I didn't realise how sick I really was, my cholesterol was...

My Story Tracey Lee From the couch to the Tankwa

        The first question people ask me is; why did you chose to do the Tankwa Camino? I did not. I say. It chose me. I saw it on Facebook, sent an e-mail and they said the first space available was for 2017… And well out the window that went. Who wants to wait so long?

Do you want to lose weight?

Want to lose weight? Eat that fat! Eating more dietary fat for breakfast will boost your metabolism and help you with fat loss! Your body is in fat-burning mode when you first wake up, and you can keep that going if you keep your carbs intake low in the morning and fats high. A study from 2010 published in the International Journal of Obesity examined the effect of different types of foods and timing of intake on the development of metabolic syndrome characteristics. It concludes that eating dietary fat in the morning is better metabolically, because the enzymes are most active when you wake up, and least active at the end of the day. In other words, the first meal...
