The Daily Health System and Metabolic Health
Too often we focus just on one aspect which is the scale. We also need to be aware of all the 5 markers of good Metabolic health.
waist circumference
cholesterol
triglycerides
blood sugar levels
When these are in check, what the scale says could start to move. It is also about what our clothes are telling us. I feel lighter and more comfortable when inflammation is lessened and the inches decrease.
To help to accomplish this, when the hormone GLP1 is activated in our gut, it sends a message to our brain that we are full, stay fuller longer, have less cravings. When our AMPK enzymes are activated, we begin to shrink fat cells. Who doesn’t want that?
I started on my Metabolic Makeover about 2 weeks ago. I am feeling lighter, brighter, and very motivated about my journey!
Last year I tried this shirt on that had been just hanging around the closet. It looked awful. I had gained a few pounds and it was very tight across my stomach, I had a muffin top and across the bra line had back fat.
Yesterday I saw the shirt again and hesitated to try it on. Since I was feeling so good, I did and was happy with it… no muffin top or back fat! Yes I have some more fat cells to shrink but I am on my way!
