Personally FIT by Lana Perry
The simple truth:
You probably read or hear about health, nutrition and dieting all the time.
But, do you really understand the secret to success in losing weight?
Personally FIT by Lana Perry provides food calories, which is the fuel that
keeps your body functioning. Your body uses these calories to meet your
basic metabolic needs, such as keeping your lungs working and your heart
beating. They also give you the energy to perform simple activities such
as walking, caring for your children, going shopping, or making dinner for
your family.
The most effective way to lose weight combines two very important
elements. First, you must eat fewer calories. Second, you must increase
your activity level to burn more calories. When your body lacks enough
food calories to meet your total energy needs, your body will use your fat
or muscle tissue to provide that energy.
However, safe weight loss breaks down fat, NOT MUSCLE. You need to
preserve the health of your muscles, kidneys, lungs, heart and other vital
organs. Lean muscle mass plays a vital role in your health. When you're
on a reduced calorie weight loss plan, your lean muscle mass is the one
thing that you do not want to lose.
At Personally FIT by Lana Perry, I aim to help you lose fat and preserve
muscle tissue for safe and effective weight loss. One way we accomplish
this is to assure an adequate amount of protein, carbohydrates and fat in
your daily diet.
I will provide a comprehensive program that is based on everyday foods
from your local grocery store. This includes meats, vegetables, fruits and
starches. When you are on a restricted program, the amount of calories
you burn in a day actually decreases because your metabolic rate
decreases. Recent research states that increasing the level of protein in a
calorie restricted diet offsets the fall in metabolic rate that normally
accompanies reduced calorie diets. As a result you will feel less tired,
burn more fat and lose weight quicker. Remember as you pursue your
weight loss goals, don't equate calorie restriction with protein
restriction. As a weight loss specialist, I know losing weight is a great
accomplishment, however, you must learn to keep that weight off in order
to have the lifetime rewards you are seeking.
Throughout your weight loss journey, I will be teaching you behavioral
modification and encouraging you to continue through the stabilization and
maintenance part of your program. It isn't over once you reach your goal
weight. I will teach you how to keep your new figure for the rest of your life.
I carry nutritional supplements that can be added to your program.
Attaining an appropriate amount of high quality protein in a reduced
calorie diet is often difficult to accomplish with traditional foods alone since
protein rich foods such as meat and dairy have added calories and fat.
Fortunately the high protein, low calorie, low fat nutritional supplements
enable you to maintain this important level of protein intake through out
the day.
The products, if added, will enable you to achieve balanced protein on a
daily basis to maximize your weight loss efforts. They will also offer a safe
food environment to help reduce high fat, high calorie, food temptations.
They are part of a structured system, which allows you to manage
changes needed for long-term weight management.
Meal Plans and Nutritional Food are Perfect Together!
These are the keys to losing weight safely and feeling your best while you
make the changes. The combinations of traditional every day foods were
designed to provide just the amount of protein, carbohydrates and fats in
your daily intake that your body needs. By following the prescribed
program I have designed for you, it will maximize your weight loss, repair
your metabolism and you will remain healthy and become even healthier!
Why Does This Nutritional Food Program Make A Difference?
Together, the food combinations increase your metabolic rate so you lose
weight quicker, encourage your body to burn fat instead of muscle,
ensuring safe weigh loss, increase your energy level, safeguard against
the loss of muscle tissue, and much more.
This is a convenient program for busy lifestyles. For your success, we
offer a complete weight management program which focuses on proper
nutrition and healthy meal planning, nutritional education, positive lifestyle
changes, emotional counseling and tailored programs.
