Do Your Friends Support or Sabotage?

SUPPORT or SABOTAGE....Do you know which of your friends do which?

As a fitness and nutrition expert, I find it so frustrating when my clients tell me their family and friends keep pushing food on them when they are trying to make positive changes in their diet. For many, changing a lifetime pattern of eating is extremely difficult. It takes dedication, motivation and will power to avoid eating foods we associate with years of comfort and enjoyment. But all too often I hear stories from my clients of friends who have invited them out and pressured them into eating foods they knew were too difficult to resist, even for the most dedicated of us! Drinks, burgers, fried foods, desserts, are all disguised as "love" food when in fact, they do anything but. These foods do not love the body and the body doesn't love them. When you allow your peers to pressure you into eating foods you are trying to avoid, you are in fact giving over your own power to these "saboteurs" and allowing them to control your destiny.

Think about what your goals are. Why did you set out on this new fitness and healthy journey in the first place. You obviously want something and making a choice to say no to unhealthy choices is going to be imperative to your success. By allowing others to sabotage your goals, you are removing your own accountability and responsibility for your success and failure. Is it easier to blame someone else for your failure? That might be something you need to look at. Is this a pattern in your life? If not, then why let them?

Saying "NO" to a burger and fries isn't the end of the world. It's the beginning of a whole NEW world for you. A world of health, lower cholesterol, lower blood pressure, lower weight and even more importantly, a world where you are in control of your decisions.

Saying "NO" to drinks and heavy meals for business meetings isn't being "difficult" or "high maintenance". It's being dedicated to yourself and will inspire others to do the same. Don't you always admire someone who takes care of themselves?

And to those of you who push, pressure and sabotage your friend when they are doing something positive like changing their diet...I say this...Do you go over to your friends' house after they get their carpets cleaned and throw grape juice on their rug? NO. So, don't push your friends to eat poorly just because you don't care about your own body. Don't pressure your friend to have dessert just because you don't have any will power. Don't tease your friend for making positive changes in their lifestyle just because you are afraid to do the same. Be SUPPORTIVE and BE the friend you are meant to be. Otherwise, be prepared to be let free.

1. The "But-I-made-this-bowl-of-butter-mixed-with-cream-cheese-and-sugar-just-for-you"  Guilt Trip.

This might be a roommate, or a parent, or a grandmother, or anyone really. "You're not even going to try one of these cupcakes I spent an hour baking?"  "You're too good for my special recipe lasagna?"

How to deal: This one is tricky, because the accuser is confusing food and love. You need to convey that just because you're not eating something they cooked does not mean you are intentionally insulting them. One thing you can do is comment on how delicious the food looks, have one small bite, or grab a serving for later (not that you have to eat it, but at least it feels less like a "food rejection"). If this is someone you live with, maybe you can explain your goals and ask them to help by cooking things that are a tad more on-par with your diet.

2. The "Oh you're dieting again" remark.

"Ha, another salad?  We'll see how long this lasts."  This person belittles your efforts to get healthy.  She accuses you of taking part in fads, tries to make you feel dumb for trying.

How to deal:  Try calling them out with humor. This comment is only meant to put you down, so don't entertain it. Try something like "Come on, don't be a jerk" or "Hey now, I don't pick on your food choices."

3. The "Extremism/Eating Disorder" accusation.

"Is one cookie REALLY going to make you fat?"  This person accuses you of being "extreme" for trying to change your habits.  Eating disorders are a serious matter, but take note: If someone is genuinely concerned about you, why would they throw out a flippant off-handed comment? " Oh, are you going anarexy  today?"  "Just a salad?  Do you have a problem?"  These are comments meant to hurt, not help.

How to deal:  Call them out on this. "Listen, I know you mean well [even if you don't believe this...] but I'm trying to change my eating habits by eating heathy; I don't pass judgment on your eating, please don't pass judgment on mine."

**However, if a friend comes to you about this and is actually concerned, take a good look at what you're eating. If you are following a too-extreme diet, don't shun friends who are trying to help; if you are following a healthy diet, explain this to your concerned friend.

4. The "Try-and-Break-Your-Resolve" temptation.

This person takes joy in tempting you to eat things he knows you're trying to avoid. When you succumb, it makes him feel better about his own lack of control.

How to deal: Try to get the friend to be on your team. This person obviously likes a challenge, so maybe you can use that "challenge" attitude to your advantage.  If you admit that you're tempted by the things your friend is eating or waving in front of your face, the game loses its fun.  "Ugh, I really want a bite of that cupcake but you know I'm trying to avoid sweets... would you mind eating in another room (pretty please?)"

5. Social guilting.

"You really have to work out right now?" This comes from someone who is eager for your company. On the one hand, this person wants to spend time with you (who can fault them for that? You're awesome) but on the other hand, this quilting will hurt your relationship long term.  If you give in and hang out instead of going to the gym, you'll feel bad about yourself, and gradually you may associate the person with those feelings.

How to deal: Explain that you'll be much more fun to hang out with once you get your workout in.  Exercise is a brain-refresher and makes us much more pleasant to be around! And remember that you need to take care of yourself before you can take care of others.

6. The "We-Have-to-Celebrate-This-Trivial-Thing-With-Food" comment.

"Come on... it's Friday! Come on... it's the first day of spring! Come on... you had a rough day!" This person probably makes a big appearance at happy hours. It's hard not to be swayed because she's so... happy!

How to deal: This person may not have bad intentions - she's just an over-celebrater.  Just tell her that you're trying not to celebrate too much until you reach some of your health goals.  Or, suggest another kind of celebration, like going to a fun pre-game fitness class together or shopping for a new workout top.   Better yet, celebrate a beautiful day by going on a beautiful Hike!  There will always be "celebrations" so keep in mind that your goal is a milestone that will be far worth celebrating than the fact that it's Friday. 

7. The allegation of snobbery.

"What's for lunch today, organic kale chips and cruelty free quinoa?  Hipster."  When you change your habits, some friends can feel threatened. Others may feel judged - as though your salad across the table is a silent judgment of their cheeseburger.

How to deal: Remember that there is nothing wrong with trying new foods; why is this person making you feel bad about it? Ask if they've ever tried the items they're so critical of, or offer a taste. If this doesn't work, ask why your food choices bother them. This question might make them feel silly and realize how shallow the comments are.

8. The "You've Changed" dig.

Related to #7, people are scared of change. When you start eating differently, or working out, or changing your habits - this is a change in basic behaviors.  Your friends might get scared that these changes indicate that you are fundamentally changing as a person. And as you re-prioritize your life... maybe you are!

How to deal:  Ask the friend how it is that you've changed, and analyze their answers. If the answer has to do with your eating or exercise habits, ask them how those things effect them. Maybe you used to sit for hours on the couch eating Cheetos together. In that case, you're going to have to find new things to enjoy together... or you're going to have to find some new friends.

All in all

At the end of the day, you need to realize this:  When a friend acts threatened by your healthy lifestyle change, it's about them, not you. Something about seeing you make an effort to improve yourself may make them uncomfortable with their own habits, or scared that you're becoming something else just because you're not eating cookie dough from the can anymore.

With every one of the cases above, you have three options:

1.            Ignore. We don't recommend this option, because no matter how hard you try, these kinds of comments can really wear down on a person over time. It's much easier to make changes when the people around you are supporting you.

2.            Talk. Let them know why you're doing this, that it has nothing to do with them - you're making an effort to prioritize your heath. It doesn't mean you love them less.

3.            Evaluate.   If there are still issues, think about why. Is this person a negative influence in your life? If they're belittling your efforts to be healthy, are they belittling you in other parts of your life? Why are they still around in your life?  Hmmmm....

Readers....What experience have YOU had with saboteurs?  Leave your comments below.  We want to hear the things your friends (or non-friends) say to you!

Can Tony Soprano Save Your Life?

What Can “The Sopranos” Teach Us About Health and Fitness?

I remember the first time I watched The Sopranos.  The star of the show sat staring as the ducks in his pool flew away and he ended up relating this to his new therapist.  He wanted to know... “What did this mean?”

Tony Soprano was a grisly, adulterous, murdering character, but somehow James Gandolfini played him in a way that made us identify with him as a normal guy with everyday problems, too. Gandolfini’s real life warmth and charm were able to bleed through.

James Gandolfini’s sudden death in June reminded us all that even people we don’t think of as “real”, are just that. They love, feel and are just as vulnerable to the real life villains that we all face.

His seemingly ‘good health’, as reported by his friends, hid the bigger problems buried beneath the surface.  Over drinking, poor eating habits, and a high weight (260 at his death) left a ticking time bomb in his heart.  His untimely death at 51 leaves us all to wonder if we could do better for ourselves and our families.

He left behind a 13 year old son, less than 1 year old baby daughter, and his wife. 

Who would you leave behind if you died unexpectedly?

100 Healthy Foods to Eat to Lose Weight

100 Healthy Foods to Eat to Lose Weight

I recently discovered this list on www.coachcalorie.com.  I'm sure those of you who know me or train with me will understand why, then,  I literally screamed when I saw this list!  I'm shocked that anyone would compile a list like this and propose that these foods actually help you lose weight!  I couldn't let it go.....so, as you'll see, my narrative and comments are in RED after each item described.  I stopped at 20, so frustrated with the author that I simply couldn't go on.  You get my drift.  

1.    Ground Beef - this is a staple in my house. We use 95% lean grass-fed beef. The grass-fed beef is higher in vitamin E, beta-carotene, vitamin C, omega-3s, and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA).  Are you friggin' kidding me?? Bison contains less calories, fat and cholesterol than beef, pork or chicken. And at the same time more iron (great for women especially) and vitamin B12 than its “competitors”. In addition, their environmental factor is also favorable compared to commercial beef since they are generally grass-fed, require less water and are also less prone to illness.  Also higher in Omega-3's & 9's.  See Chart: http://www.chow.com/photos/457915

2.    Grapes – high in resveratrol, which is a phytonutrient shown to increase longevity. Great, but I thought weight loss was the goal here.  Grapes are the 2nd highest in sugar content, figs being the highest.  See: http://www.fitsugar.com/Sugar-Content-Fruit-20134844

3.    Brussels Sprouts – high in vitamins K and C, this cruciferous vegetable improves the stability of DNA in our white blood cells.  Okay, I agree, Brussels Sprouts are good for you.

4.    Whole Wheat - whole wheat is tricky because it is usually accompanied by several other processed ingredients. Ideally you’d want to stick with products that are 100% whole wheat, and that is it.   Oy Vey!  Whole wheat has been called "the Perfect Chronic Poison" by Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist who wrote a book about wheat.  Whole GRAINS are far better, but again, knowing which grains have been "hybridized" (not GMO...something much, much worse!) is key.  Davis said that the wheat we eat these days has many new features, such as there's a new protein in this "wheat" called gliadin.  It's not gluten, it's an opiate!  "This (gliadin) binds into the opiate receptors in your brain and in most people stimulates appetite..."  Doesn't sound like a great food for weight loss to me!

5.    Chicken – a staple in nearly every weight loss program. It’s low in fat and high in protein – a winning combo. When attempting to lose weight, you always want to eat proteins that have a high absorption rate.  Chicken is not the best choice.  #1 would be Fish and #2 would be Whey protein with proteolytic enzymes, not just plain whey protein.  Proteolytic enzymes (digestive enzymes) can increase absorption rate of the whey protein by nearly 80%! http://www.precisionnutrition.com/rr-whey-too-much

6.    Pineapple - they’re high in vitamin C. Our family eats them regularly as a fruit serving at dinner. Kids love it.  See #2 above.  I'm starting to think the author of this list know NOTHING about nutrition.  Pineapples aren't even on the top 10 list of foods with the highest vitamin C...not that Vitamin C has anything to do with weight loss.

7.    Green Peas - contains a polyphenol called coumestrol, which can protect against stomach cancer. Also contains several other antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties.  Again, greens are GREAT.

8.    Asparagus - rich in inulin, a prebiotic that supports our digestive tracks.  Love Asparagus!

9.    Pumpkin Seeds – these seeds taste great and are a good topping to salads.  Seeds and Nuts are fats, which are essential in our diet for digestion and brain function.  Do they help you lose weight?  No.

10.  Turkey – a great lean source of protein you can eat year round for variety.  Just as with Chicken, remember to buy ORGANIC, free range, hormone free and antibiotic free Turkeys.

11.  Lemons/Limes - add a couple to your water for added flavor and taste bud stimulation.  Really?  I think they're reaching here.

12.   Yams – yams are very water dense, and are low-glycemic – providing for a very satiating meal. Yes, yams are a great choice for a carbohydrate, but only eat 1/2 at a meal with the skin.  Best if wrapped in foil and baked for an hour.

13.  Eggplant – rich in nasunin, a flavonoid antioxidant that scavenges free radicals and protects brain cell membranes.  Yes - Eggplant is a low-carb, nutrient-dense, calorie-poor food. Also it's low glycemic, which is essential for weight loss.  

14.  Plums – the skin of plums are high in the antioxidant phenols neochlorogenic and chlorogenic acid.  See #2

15.  Salmon – an excellent fatty fish that’s high in omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins D and B12.  I couldn't agree more...however WATCH OUT - New GMO Salmon is on the way to your market and it's Franken-Salmon!  (grown in 1/2 the time and made twice as big in a fish farm - read: lots of antibiotics)

16.  Celery – makes a great snack when dipped in all-natural peanut butter.  Also the most toxic of all vegetables.  Celery has been studied and found to hold on to 72 carcinogenic toxins.

17.  Sunflower Seeds – high in Vitamin E and a good snack to bring to the movie theater.  Yeah, if all you want to eat during the movie is "fat".  Try taking a bag of Sugar Snap Peas instead.  Cold, crunchy and sweet with nearly zero caloric effect and zero glycemic effect on the body.

18.  Papaya – very high in vitamin C, and contains a digestive enzyme called papain.  Um, apparently this author didn't know that Papaya is now an exclusive GMO grown in Hawaii and the US and Canada are the ONLY COUNTRIES in the world that import it for consumption.  No other country will allow Hawaiian Papayas to be consumed. 

19.  Cabbage – a good source of sinigrin, which has cancer preventative properties.  I thought we were talking about weight loss. In any case, cabbage has very little caloric value and can be added to anything you like, tacos, salad, soup, but be ready to be a little "noisy" in the restroom. 

20.  Butter – most people think butter is unhealthy because of its saturated fat content. In moderation however, it contains valuable fatty acids like CLA. It is also great to cook with because of its ability to remain stable under high temperatures.  Let's face it, nobody's getting fat eating fats, they're getting fat eating sugar and foods with little to no nutritional value (i.e., fast foods).  If you eat 1 T of butter a day, you aren't going to get fat.  It's a far better choice than the chemically designed "fake" butters and margarines on the shelves.  But for me, I always stay away from anything from a cow.  Make that your mantra and you'll feel better all around, not just in your waistline.

Take a look at the remaining 80 foods and write your own comments!  

I want to hear what YOU THINK! 

1.    Ham – not the leanest of meats, but still OK to eat in moderation.

2.    Kiwi – high in vitamin C and phytonutrients that protect DNA.

3.    Chickpeas – very high in insoluble fiber, and very low-glycemic. Great for filling you up, making hummus.

4.    Cashews – most of the fat in cashews is oleic acid, which has been shown to be cardio protective.

5.    Garlic – a great way to add flavor to meals. It’s also high in sulfur compounds that help keep blood pressure in check.

6.    Eggs – a cheap form of protein it’s rich in choline, which can reduce inflammation markers like C-reactive protein.

7.    Collard Greens – one of the healthiest foods in the world. Packed with vitamins K, A, and C, and is great at lowering cholesterol levels.

8.    Cheese – rich in calcium and helps prevent bone loss.

9.    Zucchini – has many carotenoid antioxidants and can be creatively cut up into noodle shapes and used as pasta.

10.  Scallops – a good source of protein, vitamin B12, and selenium.

11.  Lentils – a great source of protein for the vegetarian. Packed full of fiber, molybdenum, folate, and magnesium.

12.  Pears – contain flavanoids associated with a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes.

13.  Milk – high in vitamin D, calcium, and CLA. An easy and cheap way to get in protein. Lactose intolerant people may want to avoid.

14.  Raisins – good source of antioxidant phenols. An easy snack for on-the-go situations.

15.  Wine – moderate consumption reduces risk of cardiovascular disease. It also contains resveratrol – the purported longevity antioxidant. 

16.  Beets – red pigments are high in belatins, which have anti-inflammatory properties.

17.  Greek Yogurt – a highly versatile food. Can be substituted for sour cream in recipes. You can also make a ranch dip by adding spices like garlic, onion, salt, pepper, parsley, and celery seed.

18.  Green Tea – one of the healthiest drinks in the world. High in EGCG, which gives tea its anticancer properties.

19.  Grapefruit – great source of vitamin C and the antioxidant lycopene.

20.  Beans – a good high fiber, low fat, high protein food. Perfect choice for vegetarians and meat eaters alike.

21.  Cod – lowers cardiovascular disease risk via its omega-3, vitamin B12 and B6 content.

22.  Chia Seeds – high in omega-3s, it supports heart health, and helps improve insulin sensitivity.

23.  Artichokes – rich in antioxidants, it helps increase bile flow, and it can potentially regenerate liver tissue.

24.  Cherries – contain phytonutrients like anthocyanins, which are powerful antioxidants responsible for giving cherries their color.

25.  Sweet Potatoes – one of if not the highest source of beta-carotene in our diets. Slice them up, sprinkle them with cinnamon, and bake them to make cinnamon sweet potato fries.

26.  Almonds – high in healthy fats that lower LDL cholesterol.

27.  Flaxseeds – a plant source that’s extremely high in omega-3 fatty acids. I put a tbsp in my protein smoothie. You can also use flax oil for a potent source of omega-3 fatty acids.

28.  Walnuts – great source of vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol). Also provides one of the highest sources of omega-3s in a nut.

29.  Peanut Butter – the ingredients should only say peanuts, and possibly salt. Who doesn’t like peanut butter?

30.  Coffee – is packed with antioxidants, and can be beneficial for helping you lose weight.

31.  Spinach – an ultimate superfood. Ranks among the top 10 of the majority of nutrients. Use as a salad base or add a handful to your smoothie (you can’t taste it, promise).

32.  Pistachios – good source of healthy fats and vitamin B6.

33.  Pomegranate – punicalagins, which are only found in pomegranates, lower blood pressure and protect blood vessels.

34.  Seaweed – good soluble fiber source, and rich in minerals.

35.  Broccoli – one of a handful of veggies that are high in vitamin C. Has numerous antioxidant properties.

36.  Dark Chocolate – dark chocolate is full of antioxidants. Aim for cacao contents above 70%. 

37.  Pumpkin – high in fiber and vitamin A, which will keep your vision sharp.

38.  Radishes – contain isothiocyanates, which can protect against cancer.

39.  Cauliflower – cruciferous vegetable that’s high in vitamin C. Also, it has cancer preventative qualities. Ricing cauliflower gives you a low-carb rice alternative.

40.  Strawberries – high in vitamin C and cardio-protective antioxidants.

41.  Bananas – packed with potassium, and makes a great base to a smoothie when you slice them up and freeze them.

42.  Steak – yup, even a good steak is OK in moderation. Leaner cuts like sirloin are a good pick.

43.  Turnips – rich in glucosinolate, which help the liver process toxins.

44.  Honey – nature’s sweetener. It has many enzymes that are beneficial to your health. Go raw and unfiltered.

45.  Cranberries – protects against urinary tract infections via its proanthocyanidins content.

46.  Oats – a good breakfast choice. Pick steal cut oats or regular over instant, as they will provide you with a slower release of glucose into the bloodstream. 

47.  Brown Rice – brown rice keeps the nutritious bran and germ layer intact, unlike its white rice cousin.

48.  Corn – why not pop some popcorn for a healthy, low-calorie snack?

49.  Apples – a good source of fiber, and its skin is high in polyphenols.

50.  Oranges – like most citrus fruits, it’s high in vitamin C. Also contains many phytonutrients.

51.  Kale – considered a superfood by many. High in vitamin A and K. It also helps detox the body. 

52.  Bacon – What? Bacon? Healthy? Like nearly every whole food, in moderation, bacon can add some flavorful goodness to your diet.

53.  Blackberries – high in fiber, and they reduce inflammation via their anthocyanin content.

54.  Onions – they add great flavor and are high in polyphenols.

55.  Spaghetti Squash – a perfect low-carb alternative to pasta. I even think it tastes better!

56.  Tomatoes – its skin is a rich source of lycopene, and the tomato as a whole is packed with phytonutrients.

57.  Green Beans – low in calories and high in carotenoids and flavonoids.

58.  Edamame – a rich source of isoflavones, which can reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer.

59.  Apricots – a source of beta-carotene and fiber.

60.  Cucumbers – contain lignans that reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease and cancer.

61.  Carrots – an extremely rich source of beta-carotene, which is good for the health of your eyes.

62.  Peppers – they have one of the most concentrated amounts of vitamin C per calorie than any other food. Their varied skin pigments are also antioxidant rich.

63.  Avocados – full of healthy fats like monounsaturated oleic acid. High in fiber too. Try mixing avocado and greek yogurt together for a nice creamy sauce.

64.  Blueberries – a low-glycemic fruit that’s high in antioxidants that protect against neurodegenerative disease.

65.  Quinoa – one of the few grains considered to be a complete protein source.

66.  Pork – a fattier meat, but good in moderation if it fits into your calorie allotment.

67.  Mushrooms – good for immune support. I recently started putting shiitake mushrooms in my fruit smoothie. For someone that hates mushrooms, I couldn’t taste them at all – win/win.

68.  Spices & Herbs – basil, cinnamon, thyme – you name it, it’s healthy for you. A great way to add low-calorie flavor to your meals.

69.  Mangoes – the phytonutrients in mangoes can protect against cancer.

70.  Shrimp – rich in the antioxidant astaxanthin, which protects against inflammation.

71.  Tuna – a good source of the omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. Omega-3s from animal sources don’t have to undergo the conversion process like plants do.

72.  Olive Oil – plenty of healthy fat and phytonutrients here. Use it to cook with or as a salad dressing. Try picking the unfiltered kind.  I prefer Coconut oil in many cases.

73.  Peaches – contains chlorogenic acid, which is a powerful free radical scavenger.

74.  Coconuts – high in healthy fat (MCTs), vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. The health benefits of coconut are too numerous to list.   

75.  Watermelon – like tomatoes, it gets its red color from the antioxidant lycopene.

76.  Buffalo – a nice lean source of red meat that’s packed full of fat-soluble vitamins.

77.  Pluots – scavenge free radicals via their chlorogenic acid antioxidant content.

78.  Water – obviously not a food, but no list is complete without water. Water is in every single food on this list, and should be the staple of your liquid intake. It makes everything in your body work more efficiently.

79.  Alfalfa Sprouts – full of enzymes and antioxidants that help assimilate nutrients and protect against cell oxidation.
