Hello Beauties!

It’s  Saturday, not sure what to wear tonight?

Empire line blouses will sinch your smallest part under the bust  and tops that are scoop or V necks will show off your cleavage!

3 quarter sleeves will flatter your upper arms while dark colors are flattering and give off a  mysterious vibe!  Grrrrwwwwwwwlllllll…..

It’s Saturday!  Let the Girls be Free and Play!  While keeping it diva-licious and classy!

Be Fabulous!

“Each of us has that right, that possibility, to invent ourselves daily. If a person does not invent herself, she will be invented. So to be bodacious enough to invent ourselves is wise.”
Maya Angelou

I just CAN’T lose weight!

We’ve all heard it. I’ve tried this diet and that diet and this diet and that.

I will never lose weight!

Divas can become demanding and we don’t see results when can become discouraged.

We may feel hopeless and helpless……. and surrender – not a good look for a diva!

If we are going to be pursuing health and wellness goals without the proper information it’s like driving blind.

Think about it, you’re invited to a fabulous party!

Everybody who is anybody is going to be there!

It’s in a part of town that you are not familiar with.

Imagine trying to find your way to the party with no GPS no Navagation no roadmap – you would NEVER get there, and if you relied on the kindness of strangers to get there you may end up getting lost – getting frustrated – and eventually going back ” home. ”

– See where I am going with this?

We need the Right Tools to get where we want to go and achieve the doals that we set for ourselves.

We all know that weight is basic it’s an energy equation calories in and calories out.

Divas sometimes are not aware that there are other factors that go into this eqaution.

When we find ourselves STUCK in our weight loss efforts.

We may not be taking account for how much energy is going into our bodies and how much is going out.

Without that information getting results and maintaining them is very slim.

We may not like it, it may be a little inconveient, but a whole new healthy & fabulous lifestyle awaits us when we take charge of our health and our bodies and keep track of what goes into it.

Yes dear diva, counting calories & choosing quality foods is critical in maintaining good health!

It’s not that scary – once you have the information you need you have the keys to your city!

It will become second nature and before we know it we will be able to eyeball our proportions and become so familiar with calorie content we may know just about how many calories are in any given food at any given time!

Can I get a Hi Fly!!

Years ago, we would have to carry books around – plan out every single thing that we put into our mouths.

By taking advantage of  today’s technology we no longer have to carry around calorie counter books and meal planners. This information is literally at our fingertips!  We are in the Information Age Baby!

It gives us the freedom to make wiser choices when dining out and when grocery shopping.

It doesn’t mean we have to eat oatmeal and rice cakes for the rest of our lives! We can even make it fun by creating receipies and letting our inner creative juices flow!

There is a whole world of fabulous, beautiful, delicious food that is healthy and taste great and is easy to waste! ( digest ) LoL!

When we are informed we have the ability to make educated choices, powerful choices, that can cause positive change……………………….

…………as a pleasant side effect!

Be Fabulous!

Hello Beauties!

It seems like a good idea to detox right?

Here are some other things you should know about natural liver cleansing:

Over time, fasting can slow your metabolism, making it harder to keep your weight off.
If you fast, make sure you get all the nutrients you need, including protein found in beans, milk, eggs, yogurt, and lean meat.
Fasting can be addicting because it causes a kind of “high.” If overused, it can lead to eating disorders and other health problems.

Divas can become concerned when toxins are constantly bombarding our bodies, toxins are chemicals with potentially harmful side affects and can bring a diva down!

There are some obvious toxins like smog and pesticides. The pesticides used to grow and prepare food.

Then there are other toxins that can within our bodies based off of lifestyle choices such as smoking, drinking alcohol, impure water, eating high fat fried foods, because our bodies are under constant attack these lifestyle choices can overwhelm our body’s natural defense that can lead to declines in our health.

Our body can hold on to toxins in the digestive system, lymph or gastrointestinal system, our skin, our hair.

They can then cause problems such as fatigue, headaches, nausea and a wide range of chronic diseases. We’ve got places to go, people to see, and things to do! Not a good look for a diva!
Ok so why detox?

Detox diets are designed to rid the body of toxins – to do this we would temporaily give up certain kinds of food.

This is called fasting or purging – then we would gradually reintroduce food to our diet. So for example we may do a liquid diet for 1 or 2 days then on day 3 and four you made add vegetables and fruit then day 4 rice, then eventually other foods choiced some people go the route to eat clean and change their lifestyle others go back to their previous food choices and just with the intention to cleanse their bodies.

These are examples of popular detox diets:

Master Cleanse or Lemonade Diet
Fat Flush Diet
Liver Cleansing Diet
Martha’s Vineyard Detox Diet
Raw Food Diet

It is believed by some that occasionaly cleansing the body with a natural liver detox diet can clear the body of poisons that have built up – they also suggest that detox diets help with weight loss – other claims have been from more clear headedness leading upto prevention and cure of chronic diseases.

It’s true that symptoms may improve with a detox diet but there is no evidence that this is due to clearing toxins from the body. According to Web MD, improvements may result from what is and not eaten or drunk on these diets such as:

more water
less alcohol and caffeine
less fat and animal proteins
fewer refined and processed foods
more healthful, whole, plant-based foods

As it turns out, a balanced, proper diet may be more helpful than a detox diet. Perhaps taking the best of the detox diets — eating more fruits and vegetables and fewer processed, refined, and fatty foods, for example — is the way to go.

What’s the Problem with Detox Diets?

A diva needs to eat! Alot of the problem with these diets is that they are so restrictive you can not maintain them for very long – even though most are designed to las a couple of days or weeks – it can be dangerous because weight loss is usually from fluid and muscle loss.

We are cute and back in our ” skinny jeans ” for about 5 minutes and then…..” BAM!! “

We can quickly regain weight once we go off of the diet – if used long term detox diets can cause harm.

The good news is that our body has it’s own natural detoxification process that works well and it’s free!

The liver and kidneys tag team and process all the junk and get it out via sweat, tinkling, and poo!

……..Ok so you still want to detoxify dear diva?

If so, slow your roll before you start peeing a river!

* Make sure you check with your doctor

* Do not do it for longer than a brief period – long term can cause dehydration, and problems with our digestive system if used long term

Some divas are more delicate when it comes to detox diets

DO NOT go on a detox if you have:
*diabetes
*low blood sugar
*an eating disorder
*a heart condition
*a chronic condition, unless cleared by your doctor
*Also, detox diets are not appropriate for children, teens, seniors, or pregnant or breastfeeding women.

Becareful Ladies! I don’t want to have to buy and Flowers!

Be Fabulous!
