If youre trying to drop a few pounds, you likely already know the satisfying powers of lean protein and the filling properties of fiber. You're probably hip to grilled chicken breast and steamed broccoli (and maybe even getting pretty sick of them.)

And maybe you've even heard "experts" telling you that you should stick to those lean proteins and vegetables while avoiding fruit, which contains sugar and sugar, these so-called experts argue, makes you fat.

Don't listen to those people.

Fruit is great for weight loss. In fact most have a high water content which also helps with satiety and fullness, says Maggie Michalczyk, M.S., R.D. Sweet fruits are also great to swap in for higher-calorie desserts when youre looking to lose weight, too.

So, for these picks, youre totally able to enjoy them as part of a healthy weight loss routine and incorporate them into meals and snacks. The bottom line here is that fruit is great to incorporate into your diet when you're trying to lose weight because it contains beneficial nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Plus, they're loaded with antioxidants for very few calories, says Michalczyk.

As a general rule, stick with one serving of fruit at a time and choose these 11, which happen to be the highest in nutrient density and best for weight loss.

Pineapple is bursting with many vitamins and minerals and is a great fruit to satisfy your sweet tooth. Snack on pineapple for more vitamin C, manganese, and antioxidant power, she says. Add to smoothies or make a pineapple granita for a cold treat.

Watermelon is 92 percent water. Its water helps to fill you up, plus you're getting the antioxidant lycopene, which can be protective of prostate cancer in men, she says. Plus, watermelon is refreshing during the warmer months and goes well in pretty much any dish. Make a simple salad with mint and feta, topped with a drizzle of olive oil.

You often hear about the grapefruit diet as a means to lose weight, but is it effective? While grapefruit won't suddenly melt fat away, the water content of grapefruit can help you to feel fuller, she says. Eat half a grapefruit for breakfast with a bit of honey and Greek yogurt.

One pear contains six grams of fiber, making pears a great fruit to help keep you full, help you to eat less, and hopefully lead to weight loss, she says. Pears are also a good source of potassium, an important mineral for active muscles, she explains, so enjoy it after a tough workout in a salad or with some nut butter.

Technically a fruit, avocados are great for weight loss because they contains healthy fat. That fat can help keep you fuller for longer. While it's not a low-calorie fruit, its fat content, along with healthy monounsaturated fat, is great for your heart and avocado contains vitamin E and potassium, she says. Try some a post-workout smoothie.

Blueberries are a good source of fiber, helping with fullness and they make for a great snack, perfect for adding to oatmeal or a smoothies, and are easy to take on-the-go, she says. Plus, they have antioxidants to improve your heart health and protect your skin.

These berries are a great source of fiber. They contain eight grams of fiber per cup, which will help to keep you full, especially if you pair them with a source of protein like nuts, or nut butter, she says.

"Low in calories, and high in nutrients, strawberries are a great addition to your diet if you're trying to lose weight because they will help to satisfy your sweet tooth with their natural sweetness," she says.

Oranges are a low-calorie fruit that contain lots of vitamin. "They're hydrating, tart, and make for a good snack paired with a source of protein that will fill you up," she says. Pair them with chicken in a salad.

"These are a good fruit for weight loss because of the fiber they contain, but be sure not to skip the skin. Their skin is where most of their fiber is found," she says. Pairing an apple with hard-boiled eggs or a meat stick makes for a good snack that contains protein and fiber that will fill you up and prevent you from snacking on unhealthy things as you're trying to lose weight.

"Mangoes are another good low-calorie fruit to add to your diet when trying to lose weight since they contain fiber, vitamin C, and folate, she says. Add one to a post-workout smoothie or have as a snack with a source of protein for a satiating and nutrient-dense snack.

11 Best Fruits for Weight Loss - Lose Belly Fat With Food - menshealth.com

Weight Loss: The addition of certain foods such as these nutritious seeds can actually help you to lose weight. Read on to know more.

Being overweight is a big concern for many not only because it impacts our appearance but how it is linked to several life-threatening diseases. A sedentary lifestyle and poor eating habits are two major reasons of weight gain. We know that a healthy way to lose weight is to train daily (cardio, resistance, and HIIT workout among others) and eating healthy (nutritious food in the right amount). Even after following these two, there are people who still struggle to lose weight. There are several factors that could be hindering the same such as weight loss plateau, poor stress management, poor sleep cycle and health disorders among others.

But one should not lose hope and keep following the weight loss regime. Today we are sharing how seeds can help you to lose weight. Yes, you read it right! We eat fruits and discard the seeds but you should know that certain seeds are very healthful and can even aid to lose weight. If you are interested to know more, then read on and include these five seeds in your diet.

1. FlaxseedsFlaxseeds are packed with several nutrients which not only aid in weight loss but also overall health. They are one of the best sources of soluble mucilaginous (gum-like) fibre that can lower bad aka LDL cholesterol in the blood, balance blood sugar level and act as a hunger suppressant. The seeds are also one of the best plant-based sources of protein. For the unversed, protein is very important for weight loss, as it boosts metabolism, help in muscle-building, increase levels of appetite-reducing hormones and reduce levels of the hunger hormone called ghrelin. In addition to all this, it is low in starch, sugar and calories.

2. Chia SeedsJust like flax seeds, chia seeds are also a superfood and should be in your diet even if you are not following any weight loss program. They are loaded with protein, fibre, magnesium, potassium, iron and are low in fat. You can sprinkle them on salads, soups, smoothies and muesli/oatmeal among others or prepare chia pudding.The seeds help to suppress your appetite, tackles bloating and leave you energised for longer.

3. Pumpkin SeedsPumpkin seeds are densely packed with protein and fibre which keeps you satiated and your cravings will be lesser. They are also a good source of zinc that helps to boost our metabolism naturally. They are also known for their high fibre content. For the unversed, fibre is very vital for our gut and digestive system including regular bowel movements. And better digestion leads to weight loss eventually.

4. Sesame SeedsSesame seeds are quite commonly used in Indian cuisine. They are packed with fiber, zinc, magnesium, calcium and vitamin E among others. The seeds also help to rev up metabolism. The best part is that they have wonderful taste and aroma. As per reports, you can consume around 15 to 25 grams of sesame seeds per day.

5. Watermelon SeedsWe often discard them away but you should know that they are a high source of macro, micronutrients and bioactive compounds.They are chockfull of important nutrients such as protein, calcium, potassium, and zinc among others. The PUFA along with fiber reduces the risk of heart disease, keeps blood sugar in check, and boosts immunity. You can eat them raw or simply sun-dried.

Weight Loss: 5 seeds that can help to torch down those fats - PINKVILLA

David M. Benett - Getty Images Rapper and TV host Action Bronson shared a video on Instagram updating fans on his weight loss: he has lost 65 pounds by changing his diet and working out.

Rapper and TV host Action Bronson has been making some major changes to his lifestyle while in quarantine. Last month, he told TMZ that since becoming a father, he has been taking his health much more seriously, and that meant committing to exercising and eating differently. "I've been working out like crazy," he said, revealing that he had lost a staggering 50 pounds already through a combination of healthy eating and cardio.

Bronson, whose job as the host of Viceland's F*ck That's Delicious involves a whole lot of eating, just posted a gym video to Instagram, giving fans an update on his journey including the fact that he has now lost 65 pounds to date, and is getting a lot more intense in his training, adding more resistance to his workouts.

In the video, Bronson can be seen cranking out the pushup reps (after months of practice on his balcony), as well as putting everything into a core-busting, fat-burning session on the battle ropes.

"I was on a path that leads straight to the graveyard," he wrote in the caption. "Eating for sport took its toll but it's my fault and it's on me to fix me. I owe it to myself and my family. I reached 363 pounds and I'm down to 298. Then a good friend got me to the right spot now I'm training hard. This is week one."

Bronson's post was met with overwhelming support in the comments. "Let's go!!!" wrote retired Major League Baseball pitcher CC Sabathia, who has undergone his own fitness transformation this year. "Respect... u got this," said UFC fighter Shane Burgos, while his fellow MMA fighter Ilir Latifi said "Keep it up." "Let's go Bam Bam!!" wrote ESPN's Ariel Helwani.

Want to lose weight? These seeds will help you - The Indian Express

If youre feeling in need of some positivity then you can always count on Lizzo for help.

The singer is the epitome of confidence, and is the ideal role model for women around the world.

On her TikTok account Lizzo puts across a carefree attitude, often posting videos in her underwear, promoting body positivity and inspiring the nation.

Yesterday, she posted a video that will be remembered forever, reminding women that there is really no need for weight loss or to conform to the ideal standards of beauty.

Melissa Viviane Jefferson, better known as Lizzo, is an American singer, rapper and songwriter.

She often speaks out about important issues, especially preaching about confidence, self-love and body positivity.

Speaking to The Washington Post, she said: The term body positivity only exists because of body shaming. People should naturally be body positive and positivity should just be built in our culture.

Lizzo took to TikTok yesterday to upload a very important video.

She shows her workout routine, and proceeds to give a very inspiring message. She says:

Hey. So Ive been working out consistently for the last five years. And it may come as a surprise to some of yall. But Im not working out to have your ideal body type. Im working out to have my ideal body type. And you know what type that is? None of your f*cking business.

Then, she continues to say that she is beautiful and strong and urges others not to judge people.

At the end of the video, she argues that: Health isnt just determined by what you look like on the outside. Health is also about what happens on the inside.

Exercise, health and weight loss are often viewed synonymously in our society, and if you are exercising it is deemed that you must be wanting to lose weight.

Weight loss is then seen as a positive thing, such as Adeles extreme weight loss earlier this year which was widely celebrated around the world.

But Lizzo has been praised by fans after she argued that she exercises to make herself feel good on the inside, rather than changing what you see on the outside. Go Lizzo!

And her legions of fans, desperate to follow in her footsteps, have been left asking exactly how Adelemanaged to trim down.

The Rolling In The Deep hitmaker has used a combination of weight loss techniques - and has completely overhauled her diet and fitness regime.

In particular, she has been trying something called the Sirtfood Diet, which even allows slimmers to eat dark chocolate and drink red wine.

The Sirtfood Dietencourages slimmers to eat plant foods such as kale and buckwheat.

These foods, known as sirtuin activators, suppress appetite and activate the body's "skinny gene".

A sirtfood is high in sirtuin activators, explains nutritionist Aidan Goggins, co-author of the bestselling bookThe Sirtfood Diet.

Sirtuins are a type of protein that protect cells from dying or becoming inflamed.

"They can also kickstart your metabolism, regulate your appetite, boost muscle tone and burn fat.

For the first three days, you restrict calorie intake to 1,000 calories a day

For the first three days, you restrictcalorie intake to 1,000 calories a day, which includes drinking three sirtfood green juices plus eatingasirtfood-rich meal and snacking on antioxidant-packed sirtfood bites, says Aidan.

For the last four days,you up the calorie intake to 1,500 calories a day by consuming two sirtfood-rich meals and two green juices, cutting out the bites.

You can do this plan for up to two weeks, after which its all about adjusting it to suit your lifestyle.

There are no set rules just try to include as many sirtfoods as possible in your diet, which should make you feel healthier, more energetic and improve your skin, as well as making you leaner, says Aidan.

Clients who have carried on with the diet have seen continued and sustained weight loss of over two stone.

The Sirtfood Diet allows slimmers to eat dark chocolate and drink red wine, because they are high in sirtuins.

Not only hasAdele used the diet, butPippa Middletonalso follows the Sirtfood Diet.

They are joined by chefLorraine Pascaleand Jodie Kidd.

There is a great seven-day plan that you can follow, if you fancy trying out the diet.

We've put together what you need right here in thisSirtfood Diet plan.

You'll find ingredients plus what you need to do to prepare your daily breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.

As well as the rest of the nation in lockdown,Adele has secretly been following Joe Wicks' high intensity workout videos.

Adele has increasingly been training at home following herhigh-profile split from husband Simon Konecki, 45, in April 2019.

She is also a fan of personal trainer Dalton Wong, who helps actors get into shape for roles, including her palJennifer Lawrence.

On top of this, The Sun revealed last year that thehitmaker had taken up reformer pilates with pal Ayda Field.

I used to drink ten cups a day with two sugars in each so I was on 20 sugars a day

The exercise classes involve a strange contraption to improve posture, flexibility and balance.

Adele has also ditched tea to shed the pounds - after previously admitting sheused to drink about ten cups of tea a day.

She said: "I used to drink ten cups a day with two sugars in each so I was on 20 sugars a day.

"Now I don't drink it and I have more energy than ever."

Tips for weight loss success

Lots of us eat and drink more than we realise and do little physical activity. The result is often weight gain.

To lose weight, we need to change our current habits. Thismeans eating less even when eating ahealthy, balanced diet and getting more active.

Fad dietsand exercise regimes that result in rapid weight loss are unlikely to work for long, because these kinds of lifestyle changes cannot be maintained. Once you stop the regime, you're likely to return to old habits and regain weight.

A woman who lost a massive 14 stone has shared her before-and-after photos online.

Simone Anderson, from New Zealand, was once 26.5st.

Then, she set off on the weight loss journey of a lifetime in 2014.

Simone, an author and a motivational speaker, lost over half her bodyweight.

Fans from around the world have watched her drastic body change on her Instagram page, @simon_anderson.

Simone, 29, is also the owner of an activewear line.

Having lost a massive 92 kilograms, thats more than the average weight of a UK woman, she was left with folds of loose skin.

So, the stunning fitness-fanatic underwent cosmetic surgery to remove the sagging skin.

And, she looks unrecognisable after the op.

The young woman underwent a gastric sleeve surgery to lose weight and has also had lip and face fillers.

Simone took to Instagram to look back on her weight loss journey.

She wrote: Reflecting on the past nearly six years always brings a few surreal feelings.

The girl in the left used to struggle to walk up her own driveway, a 20-minute walk ruined her.

Fast food was the base of her diet and 99% of her meals were heavily processed.

Simone continued: Fast forward to today, I have lost a total of 92 kilograms and train daily.

I eat balanced and fresh meals and enjoy watching how strong and fit I become every single day.

I have always felt beautiful, I have always been confident, the difference now is that I know I am going to live a long and healthy life.

My weight never defined me as a person, I was still the same bubbly, outgoing, driven and organised Simone but it definitely limited the life I could live.

Gastric sleeve surgery saved my life, I dont believe I would be alive today without this life changing surgery.

Simones surgery was conducted at Auckland Weight Loss Surgery.

At the time she weighed 169kg (26.5st).

The gastric sleeve surgery removes part of the patients stomach between 60% and 90% to limit their ability to consume large amounts.

After gastric sleeve surgery the part of the stomach that processes fats and sugars has been cut away.

This can lead to dumping syndrome if the person eats too much of these foods.

This syndrome can cause a lot of pain or vomiting during an attack.

After a while the stomach may adjust to allow for the consumption of more fat and sugar but the size of the stomach is still small.

On her Instagram post, Simone added: [surgery] gave me the tools to reinvent my eating and take a good hard look at my exercise habits.

It certainly doesnt do the hard work for you, that is long term changes you have to make, but it gives you the fresh slate to feel able to tackle these changes.

Simones followers were impressed by her transformation.

One person said: Awesome! Such an inspiration.

Another added: I love the fact that you always had such a great attitude showing self love and not self loathing as is often documented in transformations.

Health and longevity is a great motivator the aesthetics are an amazing side effect!!

"You do look incredible, and your joy shines from within, which is truly inspiring.

Looking good, Simone!

TOPEKA, Kan. (KSNT) You may have heard of the Quarantine 15, a term to jokingly refer to the weight gain some may have seen while in quarantine.

As the state starts to reopen, people are getting back to their normal activities. For some, going back to the gym and not eating so much takeout food can be hard to get away from.

So how do you get back on the health track? Amber Groeling, a Stormont Vail clinical dietitian, suggests its important to do whats right for you. You can quit the junk food cold turkey, or wean off of it.

If youre craving sweets more often, she suggests increasing your protein intake as it will decrease cravings. If you need sweets, pick things that are low calorie and low sugar.

Measuring your food and paying attention to the serving sizes is helpful. Most importantly, she said to have patience when it comes to weight loss, avoiding the quick fix diets.

Looking at those realistic changes, Groeling said. You know, you didnt gain the weight overnight. It may have come on fast in three months, but it then might take three or four months to get that weight back off.

How to get on track, get rid of Quarantine 15 - KSNT News

Leader in Sustainable Weight Loss Supports Their Patients Online

PHOENIX, AZ / ACCESSWIRE / June 9, 2020 / The COVID-19 pandemic has forever changed the way Americans take care of themselves and their families, leaving little time to focus on the importance of health. Because stress levels are exceedingly high, and outdoor activities are restricted, people are coping in unprecedented ways that are reportedly taking a toll on the overall wellness of their bodies. With less movement and exercise, larger stockpiles of food within the house and the onslaught of pandemic news, finding alternative methods to comfort ourselves isnt doing us any good, especially when it comes to unhealthy eating patterns. The good news is that eating right, being active and fighting stress in positive ways are all still doable, especially with the help of the experts at Red Mountain Weight Loss.

Due in part to quarantine and social distancing guidelines, families have been indoors balancing between COVID-19 updates, working from home, taking care of the kids and their schooling along with reducing normal, everyday activities by staying indoors for long stretches of time for safety. As a result of the stress of novel coronavirus and its unknown outcome, there is an increase in mental and physical health symptoms. New home dynamics have taken precedent, creating or adding to these health changings. As a result, there is less time to focus on our individual selves and our overall wellness, which has been illustrated by the Quarantine 15.

Stress is worrisome, uncomfortable and often difficult to manage when people are under a lot of it, and individuals seek alternative methods to address the issue. Food is usually the leading culprit in reducing stress, especially sweet foods high in calories and sugars. Known to cause a multitude of medical issues, reports on weight gain during the pandemic are alarming as families reduce outdoor activities and have access to more food. Maintaining a healthy weight now is as crucial as it was before the outbreak of the virus.

During this health crisis, we know that binging is increasingly becoming more acceptable to pass time, said Dr. Suzanne Bentz, the Chief Medical Officer and founder of Red Mountain Weight Loss. In addition to emotional eating being an unhealthy coping mechanism, the long-term effects of whats been coined the Quarantine 15 are much more serious than the memes let on.

In addition to the well-documented dangers of obesity, researchers have continuously found that sitting for long periods is detrimental to physical health. It can increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes and cancer, even result in death, according to a report by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Losing weight is a known preventative of these diseases, and even more so, recent studies have shown that weight loss can also prevent individuals from contracting COVID-19. According to a study published by the National Institute of Health in their Nature Public Health Emergency Collection, overweight individuals are not only more susceptible to the novel coronavirus, but the illness can last twice as long in someone who is obese than those who are not.

Fighting weight gain can be difficult, especially during a time of great uncertainty and with social distancing guidelines still in place, but its been proven that weight loss doesnt have to be difficult if people are given the encouragement and support they need to make changes to their routine that benefits their overall health. This principle has built the foundation of success at Red Mountain Weight Loss, the largest medical weight loss practice in the Southwest.

When Red Mountain Weight Loss temporarily closed their physical locations in March in response to social distancing measures, they knew they needed to find a way to continue to support their patients on their journey to healthier living. Before quarantine guidelines eased, Red Mountain Weight Loss turned to telehealth technology to schedule appointments by video, enabling patients to connect with their licensed medical weight loss providers from the comfort, privacy and safety of their own homes through a HIPAA-compliant digital platform. While clinics have recently reopened with the recommended precautions, tele-appointments are still available as Red Mountain Weight Loss is committed to giving people options to access a network of support during their health journeys.

Rose Springer is one of those patients. Springer had always loved her figure until menopause hit. After gaining an unexpected amount of weight, Springer decided to make a change. She tried every diet that she came across but continued to be unsuccessful in losing weight and keeping it off until she started with Red Mountain Weight Loss in October 2019. She lost over 55 pounds and was nearing her goal weight when the global COVID-19 pandemic started.

It sounds dramatic, but I would have been absolutely devastated if I had been cut off from the support of the physicians and medical assistants at Red Mountain during this very difficult time, Springer said. Its easy to get discouraged when youre unable to exercise as usual and you can feel like youre on a plateau. Not only did my team at Red Mountain give me recommendations on how I could break through that, they also just showed a tremendous amount of empathy and care for my wellbeing and emphasized that Im more than a number on the scale.

Springer is only 20 pounds away from her goal, and with the help of Red Mountain Weight Loss, she hasnt lost any progress even during the COVID-19 pandemic. I know I have a tendency to want to cheat at night, so to counter that Ive been encouraged to prepare healthy snacks ahead of time that are better for me to eat later in the evening, Springer said. Weight loss is an extremely personal and emotional journey, and its so wonderful to have their professional guidance and support. Its invaluable and the difference between finding success and falling behind.

For 23 years, Red Mountain Weight Loss the leader in nonsurgical and sustainable medical weight loss in the Southwest has helped more than a quarter of a million patients achieve their goals. Their signature program is RM3 that features a 3-step process including their exclusive, patented medication.

Excerpt from:
Maintaining Weight Loss in a Pandemic with Red Mountain Weight Loss - IT Business Net

Wednesday was a big day for Nathan Jespersen. Not only was he able to open his five Anytime Fitness locations, he also was able to open the inside of his ax-throwing bar in Stillwater.

Thats a big deal for us, Jespersen said.

He opened his gyms, which are mostly in the east metro, early around 4:30 am. The Life Time fitness club in Edina had a steady stream as it opened this morning and had state officials on hand to check out how a 400-page reopening manual translates into business.

Wednesday was the first day that fitness centers, bowling alleys and some other activities could reopen in Minnesota if they followed social distancing and other restrictions.

At the Anytime Fitness in Cottage Grove, there were about a dozen people exercising in the facility at one time, which is busy for an Anytime Fitness, Jespersen said.

I think the gym is a place for people to connect, he said. Its not just about fitness.

His bar the Lumberjack had only been open about three months before Jespersen and his wife had to close it due to the threat of the coronavirus. Last week, they were able to open an outdoor ax-throwing pit. Wednesday they will be able to reopen the inside, but only half the lanes will be used.

At the Life Time fitness facility at the Southdale Center in Edina, the members there were eager to exercise. Members were spaced out on treadmills and other machines. Workers in masks were seen spraying weights and training mats with disinfectant. Signs on walls, machines and the floor directed people to social distance.

Steve Grove, commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, and states Chief Information Officer Tarek Tomes visited the facility Wednesday morning to inspect how the fitness center was working to safely reopen.

Life Time founder Bahram Akradi said he was happy with his companys preparations, which were detailed in the 400-page operational manual.

Why you come to Life Time is because of the collective experience you have with these people, Akradi said, as he sat in the Edina facilitys cafe.

Akradi said he and his team of employees were thrilled to be open.

Sectors like ours got hurt the most, he said. We were shut down the longest. Despite the losses we had to take, I am not shaken.

Members were lined up at all of the 23 Life Time locations Wednesday morning before their 5 a.m. opening, a Life Time spokeswoman said.

Kelly Lukanen of Eden Prairie was glad to be back at the Life Time Edina center Wednesday. She had started working with a trainer and cardio coach to help her lose weight and had made a lot of progress in a 60-day weight loss challenge at the gym before it was forced to shut in March.

It was a disaster, she said. I gained it all back.

She said she thought Life Time had taken the right steps to reassure members of the facilitys safety.
