Eat FAT to Burn FAT- Really?

I grew up in the FAT PHOBIC era and steered away from eating foods with a high fat content- EVEN good healthy fats like what avocados and olives provide. This was the same era when packaged foods became popular and everything FAT-FREE became a popular choice. The crazy thing is people have been getting fatter and have poorer health eating low or zero fat foods! One reason is in order to make the foods taste appealing they are added more SUGAR! And THEN, it switched from high sugar to sugar-free packaged foods, which got us fatter and even sicker!

How can fat make you slim? The answer, I am learning is simple –Fat is a fuel. The body also prefers to burn fat over carbs and sugars!

The key here is that in order to access this fuel you need to switch off glucose. Simply put, by eating lots of good fats without sugar your body will start using fat for energy and you can slim down.

When we talk about dietary fats being an important component in the diet, this does not mean eating man-made fats such as vegetable oils, hydrogenated oils and margarine. By consuming beneficial fats in your diet, we mean the use of butter, extra virgin olive oil and/or coconut oil in your cooking. We also mean consuming nuts such as almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts and also oily fish such as salmon, trout, herring, etc. and the consumption of eggs and full fat dairy.

You may ask, HOW DO I BEGIN consuming foods to attain my goal of burning fat?

There is a simple 10-Day Program that provides your body with JUST the right amounts of FATS, PROTEINS and CARBS to help you get slim. KETOPIA.

KETOPIA is a 10-Day Reset Program that has JUST the right amounts of healthy fats, medium protein and low carbs to convert your body info to a FAT BURNING BODY rather than a body that relies on sugars and carbs for fuel. There is a healthy 10-Day outline as well as a 20-Day program to assist you in reaching your health and weight loss goals. It’s all about HEALTH. Health is a Habit, not an EVENT!

Michelle LeSueur tells us a little about Ketopia.

The importance of fat in the diet is often taken for granted as fat has been on the receiving end of bad press for years. Fat needs to form part of a healthy diet as it is an important carrier of fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E and K. Once fat is removed from the diet, deficiencies of these vitamins and minerals start to become apparent.
Regularly consuming beneficial fats in your diet- such as those fat in KETOPIA- will help combat common side effects of consuming too many carbohydrates in your diet such as feelings of sluggishness, craving sweet foods after each meals, feeling physically full but still feeling hungry, etc. In fact, you’ll have access to 225% more energy by using fat for fuel.

Since using Ketopia I have far fewer cravings and much more energy. I also have dropped weight AND a lot of inches of FAT that accumulated post menopause the past couple of years. So, you CAN lose FAT by eating fat, you just have to make sure it is healthy fats. KETOPIA makes it easy…..give it a try today!

Did you know Ketopia can help with your MENOPOT-“Belly Fat”?

Did you know Ketopia can help with your MENOPOT-“Belly Fat”?

Are you still is disbelief that YOU have an abundance of belly fat due to menopause? I was!

I was one of those women who always said that Menopause Belly Fat Gain would NEVER happen to me! After all, I embraced fitness my entire life, I lifted weights – had a large % of my weight being muscle and my diet was balanced and healthy…..

and then…. at around age 53- at menopause- things really DID change and I was no longer invincible! It

was a hard realization! Until recently I felt like I was living in someone else’s body….and that I had ‘dirty spark plugs’ that weren’t firing effectively… brain fog…less focus….just not myself!

I know, research supports what countless women, as well as myself have discovered for themselves: menopause brings with it a rapid accumulation of fat smack-dab at the waist, the menopot belly. So at age 53 I began researching MENOPAUSE and hormonal shifts and really got how and why it happened – BUT that still didn’t offer a solution to HOW TO LOSE MY MENOPOT! And then, July 10th 2015, FGXpress – a company I have been working with since 2006, released a new program called The 10-Day KETOPIA Reset. This is the solution that helped me, just a little over a month ago.

Many experts believe that the shifting sands of declining hormone levels cause our bodies to redistribute fat from our arms, legs, and hips and plunk it down at our waists. In addition, lower estrogen levels and age-related changes all add up to a net decrease in lean muscle mass. Less muscle means that it’s more difficult to burn the same amount of calories as we did in our twenties, thirties, and even five years previously. Women often complain that their diets are the same but their waistline is different and we often resort to wearing pants with forgiving waist lines (yup, elastic, like our mom’s wore!)

To learn about Ketopia visit (www.Healthy10DayReset.com)

This is what helped ME begin to rid my belly and back fat! For the first time in years– something worked! Ketopia literally turns your body into a FAT BURNING BODY (with nutritional ketosis) rather than a SUGAR/CARB BURNING BODY!

**The Nitty-Gritty on the Menopot Belly**

Studies haven’t shown a direct correlation between the drop in hormone levels in menopause and insulin resistance, but they have shown that accumulation of fat at the midsection is associated with increased insulin resistance, increased hunger, and a change in carbohydrate metabolism. So while there isn’t a direct line from lower estrogen levels to insulin resistance, there may well be a more circuitous route that leads to the same destination: elastic waistbands. I LIVE IN PANTS WITH ELASTIC WAIST BANDS! Thank GOD for Yoga Pants!

A healthy way to address your FAT GAIN is by embracing a Ketogenic Nutritional Program, and the KETOPIA 10-Day Reset gives you a full program to help you reach your goals. It is high in healthy fats- approx. 65%, with protein around 25% of calories and carbs 5%…..and the box provides you with 3 of the key products: 1) KetonX drink that puts your body into a healthy nutritional state of ketosis, 2) Dough bites- snack to keep the ‘burn going’ and 3) FIXX Energy Shake…(oh yeah, and to provide PEETOSTIX, which are ketostix that you pee on to see you are in ketosis.)

Here are some facts

• Ounce per ounce and pound per pound, lean muscle burns more calories for fuel than fat (about 6 calories per pound of muscle and about 2 calories per pound of fat).

• The same number of calories taken in will now produce a little extra fat, which gets deposited in the arms, hips, thighs, and midsection.

• The same amount of fat doesn’t weigh as much as muscle or the water in our bodies.

• Women can eat the same number of calories, be losing muscle mass and replacing it with fat, which weighs less, so the scale doesn’t change, and yet there’s a greater percentage of fat than previously and a reduced percentage of muscle.

• Around menopause, some of the excess fat deposited around the body decides to have a big family reunion at the waist. So seemingly overnight, women wake up to a Menopot Belly.

• The more fat that’s deposited at the midsection, the more likely it is that your body isn’t metabolizing carbohydrates as efficiently, which can lead to insulin resistance and diabetes.

(KEY HERE: this is one reason the KETOPIA 10-Day Reset can help you with reducing your fat weight.) As fat accumulates in the midsection, something even more insidious occurs: that fat sends out more of the hormone ghrelin to the brain, which acts to increase appetite. (KETOPIA helps curb your appetite and cravings!)

• What seems to be a sudden occurrence is actually a few years in the making. Don’t be discouraged…..you really didn’t gain your belly fat overnight although it may seem like it! Give KETOPIA a try. I did 30 Days and plan to continue with a 10 Day Reset 1x month until I reach my body fat/healthy weight goals.

It truly can be as simple as using the 10-Day Ketopia Reset Program and adding a thirty-minute walk to your day and a little resistance or weight training to your exercise routine. To read a great article on this topic visit: http://www.mymenopausemag.com/menopause/how-to-lose-weight-in-menopause/

TOO MUCH BELLY FAT: KETOPIA to the RESCUE!

TOO MUCH BELLY FAT: KETOPIA to the RESCUE!

As I have aged my body, like most women I know, has shifted and changed throughout the decades. Although I swore I would not ever become “apple or pear shaped” or have back or belly fat- Menopause threw my body into a spin and everything I knew and believed went out the window! Sad to admit….My mother was right!

Here I am in the picture to the right- in my early 30’s. Low body fat, zero fat on the belly and pretty toned for a young mother of 2. Two decades later it all changed.

Although I am not a fan of the BELLY FAT topic – I AM a fan of helping others reduce their belly fat…..now that I know HOW! As a former personal trainer I helped people become more fit and transform their bodies through exercise and healthy nutrition, but up until recently, there was NOTHING on the market that addresses FAT LOSS like Ketopia…..and because Ketopia is a 10-Day Reset, it is a long term solution to unwanted pounds of fat. Ketopia literally changes the body from a Carb & Sugar Burning Body to a FAT BURNING BODY. To learn more abut Ketopa Visit www.Healthy10DayReset.com.

Here I am in at age 54 after finishing P90X. It was the onset of menopause and I found my belly fat very unattractive….so “pushed play” for 90 days and transformed my body… You can see the transformation below of both Dave and I over 90 Days.

And here’s the thing, I swore I’d never allow BELLY FAT and BACK FAT to return to my body- but it did. Menopause came at age 54 and by age 58 I was heavier and fatter than I’d ever been!

Belly Fat

Now – at age 58 I began looking for HEALTH REASONS-not just cosmetic reasons- to reduce my BELLY FAT….and just when I was about to give up, FGXpress launched a new product called KETOPIA!

I now call KETOPIA “HOPE IN A BOX!”

HEALTH is a HABIT- NOT AN EVENT– so I began reading about and understanding the health ramifications of too much belly fat and how it affects your health- not to mention your self-esteem. True,
Belly fat has gotten a mostly deserved reputation as an unhealthy fat.

“Understand that belly fat is both visceral and subcutaneous,” says Kristen Gill Hairston, MD, MPH, an assistant professor of medicine at Wake Forest University School of Medicine, Winston-Salem, N.C. “We don’t have a perfect way yet to determine which [of belly fat] is subcutaneous or visceral, except by CT scan, but that’s not cost-effective.”
But if you’ve got an oversize belly, figuring out how much is visceral and how much is subcutaneous isn’t as important as recognizing a big belly is unhealthy, she says.

How big is too big? Women with a waist circumference more than 35 inches and men with a waist circumference more than 40 inches are at increased disease risk.
Abdominal fat is viewed as a bigger health risk than hip or thigh fat, Whitmer and other experts say. And that could mean having a worse effect on insulin resistance, boosting the risk of diabetes, and a worse effect on blood lipids, boosting heart and stroke risks.

On the 27th of July I began my KETOPIA JOURNEY. On Day 1 I cried and Day 30 I cried again, but Day 30 were tears of JOY…..as I had managed to transform my body with EASE using Ketopia in just 30 short days.

Ketopia puts your body into a healthy and natural state of Ketosis, (utilizing a product called KetonX as well as incorporating Dough Bites and FIXX.) where your body begins utilizing stored body fat for fuel rather than carbs and sugars. How cool is that? As you can see. Day 1 LOTS Of BELLY and BACK FAT and Day 30 a reduction of 6″ around the belly and 3″ on the chest/back area!!!! I am half way to my goal.

You don’t have to believe what I say about my personal experience, try KETOPIA yourself. To order YOUR SUPPLY of Ketopia go to www.fgxnow.com

Give us a call so we can help you choose the BEST pack that will support your weight and fat loss goals. YOUR ideal body/health is right around the corner. Oh….and did we mention, you can earn FREE product or make money by simply sharing Ketopia with others you know who would like to lose weight and regain their health.

Joy’s Journey with Ketopia-Day 23

The longer I am on Ketopia the more I realize this is an individual journey for each and every person who does this 10-Day Reset. Men and Women are different for sure in how quick they drop the pounds, and inches- and without a doubt, hormones play a part as well. Ah, yup, Hormones….that is when MY BODY SHIFTED…..the hormonal shift starting with peri-menopause and then full-fledge Menopause. This is why I named my belly my men-opot!

If this is you…..sporting a little too much stored fat around your belly like I was- you HAVE TO TRY KETOPIA! If you don’t you’ll miss out on one of the most exciting scientific breakthroughs in WEIGHT LOSS/WEIGHT MANAGEMENT.

I have been speaking with a well known Doctor whose specialty has been HCG and has specialized in the Weight Loss Industry for 21 years! He was recently introduced to Ketopia and is AMAZED at how effective this program is for his clients. Daily he is ordering Ketopia in bulk! Shhhh, it’s a SECRET!!!!

He has kept the word “Ketopia” out of the conversation as he wants his clients to buy from his clinic rather than Googling it on the internet. Probably a smart move!

If you have been reading about KETOPIA and seeing the results many people are sharing, make sure you take the opportunity to try it for yourself. If you mention this blog in an email to us, info@fgxnow.com we’ll make sure you get $30 off your first order….AND get FREE Coaching from us. OR you can simply go to www.fgxnow.com and sign up to be a member like we are, and save $30!!!!! OH, did we mention you can earn a lot of money by helping others become healthier????

MENOPAUSE FAT GOT YOU DOWN? KETOPIA CAN HELP!!!!

By workwithdaveandjoy | July 20, 2015 - 4:09 pm |July 20, 2015 Ketopia

MENOPAUSE FAT GOT YOU DOWN?

KETOPIA CAN HELP!!!!

The majority of my life I was active, lean and had abs that were an envious body part. In my 20s, 30s and even 40s working out in a ‘crop top’ or jog bra was normal and not embarrassing! My mom had told me when I was in my 40s to not get attached to the slim waist line I had enjoyed my whole life, as menopause would surely change all that. I didn’t believe her!

I didn’t believe her! Drum roll here….and then it happened…. Around age 53 the hormonal shift began. What worked in the past no longer worked to keep me slim and trim! I began to accumulate what my girlfriends had always called the ‘muffin top’ and it was horrifying. My clothes got tight around the waist and the dreaded ‘back fat’ showed up. NO!!!! NOT SO!!! Even a solid nutritional plan that had kept me well under 17% body fat most of my life…which included moderate exercise and weight training- was not working!

I named my belly fat my Men-o-Pot! Yes, menopause was full on- with the typical night sweats, restless nights etc. Thankfully a product called PowerStrips (http://davejoy.fgxpress.com/#/fgx/home click on PowerStrips) helped balance my hormones and eliminate my hot flashes and heat discomfort….but it didn’t address my weight gain- or better said, my FAT WEIGHT GAIN!

Truth be told….we as women store fat at different stages of our life:

Puberty Pregnancy Menopause

All make ‘sense’ except for why do we need extra FAT WEIGHT as we get older???? Clearly it didn’t make sense to me and I vowed I’d fight it till the end!!!

Does any of this sound familiar???

In the past sensible food plans like Weight Watchers had worked but I found that I was no longer patient enough losing 1-2 pounds per week…..plus it required me to be thinking of food ALL THE TIME….and that is something I have no interest in. I was open and always looking for an easy & healthy solution. I I also was craving a way to RESET my body and increase my energy level. Discipline was not an issue….finding the right program was.

I always thought if I could find a program that worked QUICKLY, that was HEALTHY, that didn’t require me to “shop and chop” throughout the day with meal preparation and ADDRESSED FAT LOSS more than just weight loss- then I would be one happy lady… I am. Why?

And then….a company, FGXpress, which interestingly enough I have been affiliated with since 2006 announced the launch of KETOPIA. FGX has exclusive rights for this Dr. formulated, patented PROGRAM that puts your body into a healthy and natural KETOSIS within hours, rather than days or even weeks. What this means is you begin to burn BODY FAT FOR FUEL.

Benefits of Ketopia:

FAT LOSS= inch loss….beginning on Day 1

MORE ENERGY- Burning FAT for FUEL offers your body 225% more energy which is good for both physical energy but also MENTAL ACUITY!

Ketopia is NOT a diet…but a program where you actually RESET your body!

If you are like me, and sick of tired of the FAT INCHES and FAT WEIGHT that have accumulated over the years- I invite YOU to join ME on a 10-Day Reset. Personally my goal is to lose 15-20 pounds and have it be a permanent weight loss!

No more diets, no more embarrassing moments at the pool in a swim suit that is too snug and perhaps I may even say good bye to my frumpy yoga style pants that are my daily ‘go to’ pants.

To learn more about KETOPIA and how it will help YOU you’re your FAT WEIGHT go to http://davejoy.fgxpress.com/#/ BUY PRODUCT- BEGIN YOUR TRANSFORMATION and BE A PART OF OUR CHALLENGE!

SAY GOOD BYE to YOUR MEN-O-POT, to Back Fat, to Triceps “bat wings”….or any other part of your body that efficiently stores body fat….and enjoy this brand new product. KETOPIA TO THE RESCUE!
