Get Fit as a Blogger

Blogging is a mind demanding job, but, what about our physical aptitudes? We know that path to success requires above ideas, money, and creativity: health. Blogger Lounge personal nutritionist gives us some advice to keep moving on the track of success, trying to keep the balance on the hours we spent writing and researching for our blogs and taking care of health issues. First of all:

Because physical activity is very important for cardiovascular health and preventing obesity: run, walk (if it is in treadmill, an inclination of 4% is very recommended), or get on the bicycle or cross trainer, for about 30 minutes, for the less, 3 days per weekend.

Never skip a meal. Try to make 3 of them: breakfast, lunch and dinner. It has been related that fasting increases the possibility of increasing fat tissue deposits in the abdominal zone, increasing as well the risk of suffering diabetes mellitus type 2, and other chronic-diseases as hypertension.

Determine the hours for you meals.

Remember that quality and quantity are the keys for a good nourishment . Try not to eat fast food items, as there are great fast recipes that you can prepare in less than 20 minutes for example: salads, sandwiches, rice soups, grilled chicken. If you are in a hurry and you cannot manage to prepare something, choose the healthier prepared food in the supermarket: food with more than 5 grams of fats per portion are high in it, watch out for the food that is low in sugar or has “no” sugar, some of them have fructose which is not the best option, nowadays, sucralose is the best one. Industrialized food and some light items are high in sodium- as it potentializes taste- that is why is not highly recommended.

Choose cereals that are high fiber. Oatmeal, without cooking is a very healthy cereal, as it prevents cardiovascular diseases, and retards hunger, so it you have it for breakfast- among fruit, milk, vegetables and a meat item- you will have lunch until the hour you have scheduled for you.

Choose pro biotic milky products. If you are more than 30 years old milk with 2% of fat is a good option.

Try to eat fish 3 days per weekend. Salmon is a great option as it has healthy fatty acids.

Include fruits and vegetables in every meal. You can eat them raw in salads, or cooked with little butter, or olive oil.

If you are craving, while writing, prefer eating fruit or vegetables; cucumber is a great option, as one portion is like 2 cups.Chewing gum is not recommended to “fade” hunger, it will cause you a blotted feeling and “tummy” pain.

Drink daily 2 liters of water.

Remember that diets are individualized. These are general tips for you to feel great! Keep on blogging!

One more time, thanks a lot Anne! LY
