Fitness Resources

The Internet is a very big place filled with information, both helpful and not-so-helpful. Here are a few of my favorite sites to help you in your fat loss journey:

FreeWeightLoss.com is a great resource for body fat and BMI calculators, a calorie database, healthy recipes, and articles about weight loss.
Need to find a local gym? Gym Locator is dedicated to making it easy to find a gym, fitness center or health club in your area. Go to: www.GymLocator.com.
Need more information about fiber, weight loss, or more? Find out what the FDA has to say about it: http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/wh-wght.html.
Eating healthier usually means finding new recipes. I have listed some of my favorites on this site, but here's a link to help you find more. All Recipes lists the nutritional information for each recipe, so you can determine whether it is a good choice. Remember to watch for a fiber-to-calorie ratio of at least 1 gram of fiber per 100 calories. The more fiber, the better. http://allrecipes.com/
Here's a very valuable site for choosing your cardio exercise. Just enter your weight at the bottom of the page, and the number of minutes you'll be exercising. The site lists the approximate number of calories that you can burn in that time doing each activity. Everything is included, from tennis to planting trees! http://www.primusweb.com/cgi-bin/fpc/actcalc.pl
Want a healthy snack that you can keep in your car, purse, or at work? It's important to always have healthy food with you so that you can eat every couple of hours, and keep your fat-burning-machine happy. Here is a link to one of my very favorite healthy snacks: http://hudsons.wholefoodfarmacy.com/2005/. Just click on "our products" and look for "phi-plus." It's loaded with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, and it tastes like a cookie! It might be the world's perfect food.
