Introduction
So you want to start on a healthy diet and you grabbed this book? Smart move. It is a great start to producing healthy habits with dieting. There are two sections to this book covering a slow cooker recipe section and the belly fat diet. The slow cooker recipes are all healthy and those can be eaten and considered healthy choices. The belly fat diet helps people to lose fat where it is toughest to lose, in the belly. It helps to lose weight all over too, which is a good thing.
A healthy diet means you consume foods like fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and lean meats. It means you are skipping out on the foods that are bad for you like processed sugars and flours and foods high in saturated and trans fats. The recipes within this book contain good ingredient choices. If you are seeking to lose some belly fat, you can go on the belly fat diet and lose weight if you stick with the diet plan. You can choose from the slow cooker recipes and stay on track for weight loss because those recipes are as healthy as the belly fat diet recipes.
In order to have a completely healthy lifestyle you need to make some changes in other areas as well. These are just suggestions that will make the dieting more successful and bring about a healthy body. The first things you should do aside from changing your diet is to stop your bad habits. You know the ones that you do as a way to copy or because of an addiction. Things like smoking, drinking alcohol, eating excessive junk food, being too sedentary, are all bad for your health. While you start the diet take care of these things by making it a goal to stop these bad habits.
Junk food is an addiction. The more you eat it, the more you crave it. If you do not get it you may develop a bad mood, get a headache, feel agitated. This is a sure sign of a true addiction to it. Some people are addicted to chocolate, others to sugar, and others to fried foods. It really does not matter (except a little chocolate is beneficial because it contains anti oxidants) they are all addictive and will rule you rather than you having the right to choose. Consider weaning from junk food addictions just like you would if it were any other addiction (alcohol, smoking, etc.)
The body will normally wean off of an addiction in about three weeks. In that 21 days leading up to the successful wean you are backing off of what you are addicted to at the moment. This is true of smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, drinking caffeine, taking medications, and even junk foods. Start by replacing one single time of eating the junk food. Make it a snack time if you are used to eating junk food snacks daily. In three to five days, replace another time of eating junk food with something nutritious. Included in this book are some good snack and dessert recipes in this book are healthy. Or eat a fresh piece of fruit, or snack on a whole grain cracker and cheese or nuts. Keep going this until by the end of the three weeks you are completely weaned from the junk food.
Add exercise to your routine to help especially with the belly fat diet. Exercise is good for you regardless of whether or not you wish to lose weight. Keeping the body active helps the blood to flow and gives you a boost in energy. Once you get started with an exercise routine you may will want to continue it because of how it makes you feel. A good workout will cause your body to release endorphins, which will help you have a natural high.
These endorphins are nature's cure and treatment of depression and the blues. You can gain this by exercising every other day for a half an hour at a time. Make sure you spend a few minutes before and after on some stretches to keep from having muscle injury.
Always drink plenty of water when on a healthy diet. Water makes up a huge percentage of the human body and we need to replenish it constantly throughout the day. Drink enough that you do not feel thirsty. Drink a little more when you work out to replace the water loss during the exercise. Keep at this and it will help the diets to work better. Weight and fat will melt off faster if you are physically active versus if you are sedentary all the time.
Be sure to take some time to relax and rest. Running and running with a busy life is not good for the body. The body needs plenty of time to rest and unwind. Make sure you get ample sleep at night. If you have trouble falling asleep at a decent hour, do what you can do to make sure you can fall asleep. Do not have late night activities. Take a warm bath and relax. Set a bedtime routine and allow it to help you unwind from the day's stress. Take a few breaks during the day to step away from work and let your mind clear. If you can get away with it, a 20 minute nap will do a world of good too.
A word of caution - all the information in this book is just that, information. The recipes are great, home cooking and nutritious. The advice is just suggestions. You should never take advice on your health without first contacting your health care provider to make sure it is the right advice for you. Clear any suggestions with them as well as the diet plans. They may offer more suggestions and can give you the go ahead to pursue the diets and advice, as you want. Lastly, stick with your lifestyle changes. A healthy diet should be a permanent fix for your health.
Section 1: Slow Cooker Cookbook
What Is The Difference Between a Slow Cooker and a Crock Pot?
The old style cookers were called slow cookers,
where the heating element is in a separate unit from the main food holder. Actually, larger slow cookers and crock pots
still come this way. When the crock pot
made the scene, it was with the heating element cased within the food holder all in one. If you were lucky you had a removable plug for easy cleaning. Not so lucky were the ones where the plug was a permanent fixture. Crock Pot, by the way, is a registered trademark by the Rival Manufacturing Company, but their name brand became a nickname for slow cookers.
Some slow cookers may have the heating elements that surround the food holder, helping to give it even heat. Others may only have the heating element on the bottom, causing the need for extra stirring to keep from burning and sticking with the food.
Slow cookers come in three
