"It's so much more than a physical transformation." Those are the words of one of my beautiful clients, and I realized they are a perfect description of my own journey as well. I'm Elizabeth from Happy Healthy and Hot. I'm a 56-year-old double-certified health coach who helps women of all ages lose weight so they can love their bodies AND their lives. I'm passionate about showing them that it feels so good to feel so good and that it's not just about the destination of better health, it's about who you become on the journey. Back in 2016, approaching my 50th birthday, I was featured as a success story here on MDA. I shared my health journey of finally clearing the cystic acne that had plagued me for decades, along with relieving severe anxiety and digestive issues. This was all a result of embracing the Primal lifestyle. Recently I re-read that article and was moved to tears. In it, I mentioned three goals: to become certified as a Primal Health Coach, to start my coaching business, and write a book. I have accomplished all of that and so much more. Earning my Primal Health Coach certification in 2017 took me so much deeper into the science and research that backs up this lifestyle, and gave me the tools, knowledge, and most importantly the confidence to finally start my coaching business, Happy Healthy and Hot. I offer a unique blend of mindset, nutrition and fitness, and have a knack for turning overwhelming health information into quick little tips that my clients can implement immediately and see results. And then I wrote that book! The Happy Healthy and Hot Journal - 90 Days to Love Your Body and Your Life is the simple tool that I needed, my clients needed, and I knew other women needed to stay on track with mindset, nutrition and fitness every single day. Something else I'm proud of is making it to the finals of the Maxim Cover Girl competition at the age of 53, competing with women in their twenties and thirties. The old Elizabeth never would have done this, but the new Elizabeth embraces challenges head on, takes inspired action, and says yes when it's a full body yes. A recent challenge that I've taken on is to give myself a gift that no one else can give me: a visible six pack for my 56th birthday. (Full disclosure: I've never had a six pack, even when I was hitting the gym hard in my early twenties.) Every time I take on a challenge like this it lights me up, and the confidence and satisfaction that come with reaching the goal carry over and propel me forward in other areas of my life. And speaking of life, it gets in the way sometimes, just like it does for everyone. It's during those times, when the sh*t is hitting the fan, that I see the true value of my health practices. The simple routines that I … Continue reading "Success Story: Happy, Healthy, and Hot!"

There are some crazy crash diets out there. You've got the cabbage diet, where people live (or try to live) off of cabbage soup for weeks at a time. You've got the gelatin diet of the 70s, where people would try to lose weight by eating only gelatin (it didn't work and some people got really, really sick). There are dozens of variations of crash diets, and most of them are unsustainable, unhealthy, and ineffective.  There's one that's a little different: the protein sparing modified fast. No less extreme but far more reasonable and effective than the others, the protein sparing modified fast, or PSMF, is an ultra high protein, low-carb, low-fat, low-calorie diet. It's intended to accelerate fat loss and minimize muscle loss. It is not intended to be a long term way of eating, but rather a short term intervention that can springboard a person into greater sustained weight loss and healthy living.  Why Do a Protein Sparing Modified Fast? Because "weight loss" doesn't tell you anything. Weight is a non-specific measurement of mass that's comprised of fat, muscle, connective tissue, bone, and water. To "lose weight" can mean you've lost mostly muscle. It can mean you lost a bit of fat and lot of muscle, or a lot of fat and bit of muscle. It can mean reduced bone mineral density. It can mean your tendons and ligaments are losing strength. It can mean you just lost a bunch of water weight. But when the average person wants to "lose weight," they want to lose body fat and keep their muscles. The protein sparing modified fast "spares" protein (muscle) and accelerates fat loss. It aims (and mostly succeeds) at creating the kind of weight loss people are looking for. How Do You Do a Protein Sparing Modified Fast? Emphasize lean protein. Lean protein is the basis of the protein sparing modified fast. In order to be "protein sparing" and accelerate the loss of fat and limit the amount of muscle ams you lose, the PSMF emphasizes high protein intakes. By increasing protein relative to calories, your diet provides the amino acids your body needs to convert to energy instead of your body taking those amino acids from your own muscle tissue. Eat at least 1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. If you're lifting weights (which you should be to get the most benefit out of the diet), up that to 2 grams protein per kilogram. I'd actually suggest going as high as 2.6 grams per kg, as a recent study showed that this level of protein intake during aggressive dieting minimized muscle loss. The protective effect of including adequate amino acid intake when dieting is so profound that even infusing starvation patients—people who aren't eating anything at all—with isolated amino acids can stave off the worst of muscle loss. Lean protein sources include: Lean cuts of beef and pork: top round, 95% lean ground beef, filet, loin Chicken and turkey breast Lean white fish: cod, haddock, halibut, tilapia, … Continue reading "What is the Protein Sparing Modified Fast Diet?"
