How to Diet in Nigeria even with a Busy Schedule


When it comes to dieting many of us in Nigeria, the number one hindrance to our success is the lack of time to prepare the proper meals and snacks for our dietary needs. It is often much more convenient to throw one thing in the pot for the family or resort to the fast food last resort rather than preparing the healthy and nutritious meal that we should be eating.

There are things you can do however that will reduce the temptation to hit the drive thru and keep you on course with your dieting needs. The first of these is a process known as once a week cooking using the 101 Flat Bely and Fat Loss Nigerian Cooking recipes here. With this method you cook enough meals to last you a week on one day.

This means that for every night of the week you have a diet friendly meal ready to go. If your entire family is dieting or eating healthier with you, this works for this situation as well. Dieting and incorporating healthier eating habits into the food for your entire family is a great way to set an example for your children will keeping you motivated and removing temptation.

With once a week cooking you freeze the food that won’t be immediately consumed and thaw it the morning you will be eating the food to cook when you arrive home after work or decide it is time for your evening meal. This is a process that works well no matter how many soccer games, long office hours, heavy traffic etc you have on your calendar for the week. You can manage to stick to your diet while having a great meal for your family each and every night of the week.

You should also make sure to have a nice supply and cleaned and cut fruits, vegetables, and salad ingredients in your refrigerator in order to make these dishes readily assessable for quick lunches or snacks. Having these foods readily available will help you resist the temptation to snack on higher calorie prepackaged food while also helping to insure that you have a ready supply of fresh fruits and vegetables to help you get your 5 servings a day.

If you would like quick, healthy Flat belly Snack recipes, then you should see this.

You should also keep some conveniently packaged yogurt on hand as a good quick and easy dairy product. Preparation and planning are essential to successfully meeting your weight loss goals. By preparing as much of the food as possible ahead of time you will never even miss the convenience of those high calorie pre packaged meals and snacks that so many of us survive on when not dieting.

Another time saver is to work your fitness opportunities into the course of your day. Rather than performing one lengthy workout each day, try to find methods of bringing a little fitness activity into the most mundane portions of your day (go stair climbing at lunch, walking while making and receiving calls), park far away from the door of the supermarket and see if your mall has a walking path that is clearly marked. You’ll be amazed at the hidden opportunities many of us have for exercising during our busy days. The trick is often in discovering the activities rather than the time.

When all is said and done, dieting doesn’t have to be as time consuming as you may think it is. There are all kinds of prepackaged plans for dieters however if that is the choice you feel is best for you. Whether you are going with Dr. Ela’s Total Fat Loss Plan for Nigerians or Weight Watchers frozen entrees, Jenny Craig, or the Slim Fast program there are all kinds of opportunities to work dieting and fitness into even the busiest of schedules. When planning your dieting practices be sure to consider the tips and advice mentioned above.

I wish you success with your fitness,

Cheers

Does the 101 Flat Belly and Fat Loss Cooking Nigerian Recipes Work?


Nigerians are becoming more obsessed with weight and dieting. We are also getting heavier than any other time in our nation’s history. There are diets, supplements and even surgeries that are geared towards helping people lose weight, but most of them fail to get people to address the true issue of looking at how they need to change their lifestyle to keep the weight off.

This is a personal story of my close friend I would call Mrs. Chichi Ofondu (real name withheld for privacy). My close friend and I decided that we needed to address our weight. We were both carrying more weight than we needed to be. Some of our other friends were on the 101Flat Belly and Fat Loss Nigerian Cooking Nigerian recipes and had lost weight, but our question was does the 101 Fat Loss Nigerians Recipe Cookbook really work in keeping the weight off. I mean we are talking about “our” Nigerian foods like “egusi soup”, “amala”, “ewedu”, “ofada rice” here.

And so we decided that we would research this and other diets to see which we would be able to fit into her life the easiest. We knew that the plan had to be easy to follow and flexible in order for her to stay on it. We knew that most diets would give you results if followed faithfully, yet we were concerned about what happens in the long term.

So Mrs. Chichi had me look into the BreakfastCookbook of the 101 Fat Loss Nigerian Cookbook Set to know if the recipes do work for Weight Loss and she looked into the Vegetarian Cookbook which she also ate for lunch and dinner. In a way asking the question does 101 Fat Loss Nigerian Cookbooks work seemed silly considering that the number of people that were following some form of it was growing on a national level in Nigeria.

Restaurants and fast food chains in Nigeria are already using some of their menus to accommodate the number of people who were looking for fat loss foods for healthy living. After doing research on it we found that the entire process is dedicated to changing your eating habits for a life time which in turn helps to keep the weight off “permanently”.

The strict low bad carbohydrate intake is used to drop weight, but then a full regiment for adding some healthy carbs back into the diet is outlined in the Breakfast, Vegetarian, Snacks, Soups, Chicken, Seafood and Fish Cookbooks. Actually there are a total of 12 Nigerian FatLoss Cookbooks available here.  The goal is to add enough fat-burning dishes which are Nigerian to replace the majority of our Nigerian Fat-STORING recipes – whose daily routine is to satisfy your hunger and cravings, without over doing to the point of gaining weight back.

The consistent report that Mrs. Chichi kept saying over and over and over again was “I don’t ever feel hungry while using Dr. Ela’s Fat Loss Nigerian Cookbooks”. She also said she experienced increased energy as well and lost weight. Personally, I too never felt the need to overeat while using the Recipe program. We have decided that we will continue using the “101 Fat Loss Nigerian Cookbooks” in our diet and also cut the amount of fat we take in.

Fortunately, the Fat Loss Cookbooks are not those foreign tasteless alien recipes the whites eat. I still get to eat my favorite “swallow” with the “Ewedu” recipe. You can get full details about Dr. Ela’s 101 Flat Belly and Fat Loss Nigerian Cooking Recipes here.
