Spring time! It’s the time of the year when we start wearing fewer and thinner clothes and some of you may surprisingly notice that some of your favorite spring time clothes do not fit in front on the belly. Well, definitely that’s due to the extra belly fat you have gained during the winter holiday season…
First of all you should not panic – that happens every spring to nearly all Americans. Americans gain at least 1 pound every year after the winter holiday season. You’d probably say 1 pound is nothing, and you’d be right 1 pound a year is nothing, but in the long run 1 pound every year can contribute to serious weight and even worse – obesity – problems in the not so distant future.
1 to 5 pounds are not so hard to get rid of. With more exercises and more fresh vegetable and fruits coming up on the market you will shed those 1 to 5 pounds in no time. But that’s not all… if you know which veggies to eat you can lose them even faster.

Aries
 These are the foods you need to include into our daily menu (or if you are already eating them – you should increase the amounts you eat):
+ Beet, celery, cauliflower, spinach, onion, mustard, radishes, carrots, cucumbers, dates, apples, lemons and walnuts.
Using more from these foods you will cope one and for all with the nasty headache and nervousness you experience sometimes.
You need enough amounts of iron and proteins to keep you muscle tissue in good condition, so no more muscle aches if you eat plenty of beans, lentils, peas and of course – meat.

If you have tried to lose weight too many times so far, with no success, then probably you are not doing something right. Luckily I found an interesting weight loss test you can do in order to find out if you will be able to lose weight and keep it off for good.
With this test you will find out if your dream for slimmer hips and attractive body may come true with less, more or extra efforts from your side.
Answer honestly to the following questions and give 1 point for every “Yes” and 0 points for every “No” you answer.
Questions:
Q1: Do you exercise regularly?
Q2: Do you know your calorie intake from the foods you eat every day?
Q3: Do you eat often but small portions (5 – 6 times a day)?
Q4: Do you weigh yourself at least once a week?
Q5: Do you always have at hand (mostly at home) diet foods like fruits, vegetables, curds, boiled meat, diet cheese?
Q6: Do you resist the temptation when you are not hungry but someone tempts you to try it anyway?
Q7: DO you keep sweets and other tempting snacks for long at your home or they are being eaten in no time?
Q8: Do you leave some portion of your meal if you are already full?
Q9: Do you dream from time to time for food – some favorite meal of yours?

You don’t need to pay for an expensive 2 – 3 week stay in 5 Stars Spa Hotel to lose weight. Yes, Spa procedures are great very relaxing and effective, but they are too expensive. And they don’t teach you how to live healthy lifestyle.
You will probably lose some pounds even more than you expected but then it becomes even more difficult to keep them off for good. If you don’t live healthy lifestyle it’ll be very hard for you to maintain your current healthy weight. Without healthy eating habits and the knowledge how to choose your food and how to prepare it into delicious healthy meals you will gain back most of the lost weight sooner than you’ve expected.
The Five Star Weight loss Program I am taking about here is completely different and has nothing to do with 5 stars hotels. It is a very simple program you should follow, in fact it’s exactly a program but more like a plan of 5 important things you need to do in order to start living healthy lifestyle, which inevitably will help you get healthier and lose the excess pounds, feel better and more positive about your life and well being.
For each of these 5 things you do right – give yourself one star – this way at the end of the day you will have all 5 stars truly and honestly earned/deserved. It is as easy as 1-2-3-4-5. Here’s what you need to do:
Sleep
Eat Right
Stretch
Exercise
Encourage yourself

I love fruit drinks and especially smoothies, what about do you? I’m sure everybody does, but there is something that bothers me about those drinks – their preparation time. I know that even with the fastest smoothie blender or fruit press, it could still take about 5 to 10 minutes (depending on the quantity you wanna make).
Then I thought… What if you could have your favorite fruit drink or smoothie ready in about 1 to 3 minutes? I’d be great!
 This is possible if you use WonderSlim Protein Smoothies and Fruit Diet Drinks and it gets even better for you to know that those protein diet drinks are actually WonderSlim Diet meal replacements.
WonderSlim Diet Smoothies are high in protein, low in fat, and full of essential vitamins and minerals. You can enjoy their rich and creamy taste all year long, anywhere you like. As they are well balanced and nutritious you can take them instead of your regular meals or just as a quick and healthy snack.
These protein diet smoothies are the perfect solution for any busy dieter on the go who doesn’t want to sacrifice taste or nutrition and yet gets everything they need to lose weight healthy way or maintain your lost weight.
They are the ideal supplement to your WonderSlim Diet plan.
 Preparation is easy – poor the contents of one packet (100 calories) into a glass, shaker cup or blender. Add 8 ounces of cold water and stir or shake vigorously until dissolved…
…Or you can use both the Berry and Strawberry Smoothies to make a frozen pudding pops like Liz (one of the many happy users of these wonderfully flavored protein diet smoothies):
She combines fresh or frozen fruits, adds plain yogurt and blends. Delicious and nutritious these could be great frozen snacks for the hot summer days.

Hello to everybody who’s been asking these particular questions for some times now:
1. Is cinnamon bad for the liver and the kidneys?
 Coumarin is a chemical compound contained in Cassia (Cinnamomum aromaticum – aka Chinese Cinnamon) and is known to cause liver and kidney damage in high concentrations. True Cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum – aka Ceylon Cinnamon) has negligible amounts of Coumarin, so no worries here folks as long as you use the True Cinnamon.
Coumarin toxicity is 275 mg/kg, which is relatively low compared to related chemical compounds. We humans are able to largely metabolize Coumarin to a compound that is of lower toxicity.
Also pay attention to the key phrase here “high concentrations” – half teaspoon a day is not high concentration. So if you’ve been using a half teaspoon of Cassia to prepare the drink, instead of the Ceylon Cinnamon, you don’t have to be worried, just try to find true cinnamon.
2. How long should I take it?
Important notice: You should not over use the honey and cinnamon drink, meaning you can’t use it forever.
If you reach your weight goal within a couple of weeks or a month – that’s fantastic. If you need more time, just use it for about 2 to 4 months tops.
3. Should the honey be added after half an hour (when the water cools)?
I know that in my original post I wrote to make a paste from the honey and the cinnamon powder and then to poor the hot water in the cup. However, I should agree with that the honey is better to be added after the water and cinnamon mix cools (in about half an hour).
