| Body Fat versus Body Weight |
| By Mireille |
| Monday, Aug 17, 2009 07:56 |
The main way we tend to gauge how well we are going with our fat loss program is by jumping on a set of scales. The problem with using basic scales are that scales measures everything in your body - your bones, organs, muscles, tissues, fat and fluid. As you progress with your fat loss plan, you will lose body fat but you also will be putting on muscle. Muscle is denser and heavier than fat so even though you are looking and feeling better, the scales will tell you that you have put on weight. For that very reason, body measurements are much better to gauge your success than body weight. If you do want to use scales, make sure you use bio-impedience scales that measure your body fat levels as well as your total weight. |

| Snacking Your Way to Success |
| By Mireille Ryan |

Need some snacks that are easy to make and are yummy too.
Try some of these snacks: - Box of Raisins
- Celery Sticks with Peanut butter
- Hard boiled Egg
- Piece of fruit
- Yoghurt
- Trail Mix
- Handful of nuts
- Grapes
- Rice cakes with Peanut butter
- Fruit smoothie
- Crackers with low fat cheese
The important thing to remember is to be prepared. By taking these healthy snacks with you to work, you will be less likely to be tempted by the snack vending machine or the takeaway store downstairs.
Every little bit counts! |

Time Out For Women
Sherah Reeves
I have recently returned from a wonderful girls weekend away with in Sydney, where we attended the Time Out for Women event. As if a well deserved two day 'time out' from my beautiful 5 children wasn't magical enough, but having the privilege of being surrounded by 2000 other fantastic women - all desiring to be better, to feel re-charged and all choosing to become a little closer to the women we are meant to be - was so exciting. . . .
