    Ingredient #10: Accept and Love Yourself

    Posted on April 24, 2013 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss, Loving Your Body

    I grew up with the false belief that my value was linked to my body size.  For years I thought myself fat and worried about gaining weight.  It took years to realize how hurtful this way of thinking was to me.  Making peace with how I looked was an important step in my own journey […]

    Ingredient #9: Take a high quality nutritional supplement.

    Posted on April 10, 2013 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss, Nutritional Supplements

    Several years ago I was worn out and struggling with constant flus and colds.  I didn’t use supplements because I’d been taught in medical school that they weren’t necessary.  It took a health crisis in my own family for me to finally do my own research.  What I learned caused me to completely change my […]

    I am a big fan of the Mediterranean diet and it plays a major role in my online weight loss program (www.firstgethealthy.com).  Not only is this an excellent diet for losing weight, it is one of the best diets for maintaining your health and preventing disease.  Two recent published studies highlight this.  The first study […]

    Ingredient #6 – Reducing Your Stress

    Posted on January 2, 2013 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss, Stress Reduction

    Ingredient #6 to healthy weight loss is stress reduction. When you are doing everything else right and you still can’t lose weight, it’s almost always linked to either too much stress or a hormonal imbalance. Stress plays a huge role in causing your body to hang onto fat. This is actually a normal physiological response. […]

    The 5th essential ingredient to healthy weight is making sure that you have a deep and thorough sleep every night.  Sleep is all too often overlooked when it comes to weight loss.

    Ingredient #4 – An Active Lifestyle

    Posted on December 12, 2012 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss, Exercise

    The 4th essential ingredient to healthy weight loss is having an active lifestyle. Notice that I didn’t say “exercise”. That’s because the concept of exercise when you are overweight is often seen as an unpleasant but necessary part of losing weight. As well, it’s too easy to look at exercise as a specific time of […]

    Ingredient #3 – How You Eat

    Posted on December 5, 2012 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss

    The 3rd essential ingredient to healthy weight loss is “how you eat”. The French don’t “diet”, they eat rich food and drink red wine and their rates of obesity are significantly lower than those in North America. Why is this? While there are several reasons, one of the key reasons is “how they eat”. The […]

    Ingredient #2 – When You Eat

    Posted on November 27, 2012 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss

    The second essential ingredient to healthy weight loss is “when you eat”. There was a recent study that showed that eating all your calories in the evening caused weight gain whereas eating the same amount of calories just in the morning caused weight loss.  Sumo wrestlers understand the importance of this.  They intentionally eat a […]

    Ingredient #1 – What You Eat

    Posted on November 20, 2012 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss, fast food, Healthy Foods Choices, Nutritional Supplements

    The first essential ingredient to healthy weight loss is “what you eat”. As I mentioned last week, there is a lot more to this than just counting calories. The first and foremost rule to follow when choosing “what to eat”, is to choose “REAL” foods. By “REAL” foods, I mean food that is as close […]

    Eating less and exercising more is not the whole story!

    Posted on November 7, 2012 by Dr.Diana in Effective Weight Loss, Health Tips

    Too often in the “diet world” the focus is all on counting calories and exercising.  While there is a place for both of these, they are not the whole story.  In fact, many women who have been on multiple diets, find that just looking after these two areas no longer gives them the results they […]

    The Wonders of Melatonin

    Posted on September 5, 2012 by Dr.Diana in Cancer Prevention, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Osteoporosis, Sleep

    Melatonin is well known for helping people improve their sleep.  However, that’s just the beginning of the many benefits of this “sleep hormone”.  Melatonin has been found to promote health in many other ways: Melatonin can protect against heart disease.  It’s been shown to reduce “bad” (LDL) cholesterol levels and increase “good” (HDL) cholesterol and […]
