I have been eating healthy peanut butter with hemp and flaxseed oil. Is that why I can’t lose weight?

May 14th, 2010 | by admin |

It is the good fat so I thought it wouldn’t put on the weight. It has 16 grams of fat per serving and 2 grams saturated fat. I walk two or three miles a day, but my scale doesn’t budge. I get this peanut butter from the organic store. It is supposed to be good for you. Any thoughts would be appreciated. I have had 10 strokes and am really trying to get healthy.

Eating something organic doesn’t make it health food, it just doesn’t contain any dangerous additives, pesticides, or herbicides. Flaxseed oil may or may not help your heart and contains omega 3, and hemp is packed is nutrients. Walking may have worked for Jared from subway but adults need at least 30 minutes of vigorous activity a day, which include bikeriding, swimming and running. Before starting any type of exercise esp. with someone in your situation, you should see a health specialist first to make sure its safe.

    To loss the weight i think this option and its work for me:

    eat more fruit
    drink fresh juice
    get detoxification
    no junk food
    no milk
    no yogurt
    no soda
    drink natural water
    sport (like exercise, running, walking, aerobic, swimming)
    eat more salad
    good sleep

    the example eat menu :

    Breakfast

    Always same: juice presses fresh, as much as desirable, up to 14 ounce; fresh succulence as much as desirable, or salad fruit; when do you very hungry. When not make difficult, sometimes fun replaced fruit every day that eaten at morning

    Lunch

    Can’t answer that question without knowing what your ENTIRE diet looks like. Yes, peanut butter with flaxseed oil is VERY good for you, but as with all things, too much of anything is bad for you. If you’re eating a lot of that peanut butter, or if the rest of your diet is not in order, you won’t lose any weight.

    Here are some diet tips:

    1. Eat breakfast every day within an hour of getting up. It kick-starts your metabolism. Studies have shown that people who skip breakfast are 450% more likely to be overweight than those who eat breakfast every day.

    2. Eat six small meals or snacks per day instead of three squares per day or one big meal per day. If you eat too much at one sitting, your body stores the extra calories as fat. Go too long between meals and your metabolism slows down. Your body expends energy digesting your food, so eating smaller portions more often keeps your metabolism running high because you’re constantly digesting food.

    3. Avoid these as much as possible:

    – Trans fat (any type of partially or fully hydrogenated oil)
    – High fructose corn syrup (soft drinks are LOADED with it)
    – Fast food
    – Junk food
    – White sugar, white flour, white rice, white potatoes
    – The deadly C’s (cookies, cakes, candy, chips, cola)

    4. Build your diet around these trim-body-friendly foods:

    – Nuts, any kind (almonds are best)
    – Beans/Legumes
    – Fresh vegetables (green is GREAT!!!)
    – Dairy products (as long as they’re low-fat or non-fat)
    – Eggs
    – Lean meats (fish and poultry top the list)
    – Olive oil
    – Whole grain breads/cereals/pasta
    – Fresh fruits (anything that ends in “berry” is a winner)
    – Tea (green tea or black pekoe tea)
    – Cold water or ice water (your body has to expend extra calories to heat it up)

    5. Desserts and treats are the exception, not the rule. Having said that, however, (1) you can have a couple of pieces of chocolate every day – just don’t overdo, and (2) Allow yourself one “cheat meal” every week where you eat and drink whatever you want as long as you don’t gorge yourself. That’ll help keep you from feeling deprived and it’ll make it easier to stick with your new healthy eating plan.

    Good luck!
