Its no secret that the 2022 cars have got a pretty major weight problem. F1 cars are the heaviest theyve ever been and the new technical regulations have seen them gain a whopping 46kg since last season.

Nevertheless, teams have struggled to get their cars anywhere near the minimum 798kg target with the likes of Red Bull and Mercedes reportedly well over it.

Every gram that their car is overweight costs them vital seconds of lap time and given how close the field is this year, that could be the difference between a win and finishing outside the points.

As a result, teams are taking pretty extreme measures to slim down their cars removing their liveries

Compare the Williams we saw around Imola at the weekend (above)to the one at Bahrain pre-season testing (below).The dark blue and glossy black livery has been stripped off the FW44s front and rear wings, nose tip, sidepods and around their engine cover, exposing large sections of carbon fibre underneath.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, as Aston Martin and McLaren have already peeled off paint from their engine covers and rear wings too.

Although theres no official data showing how much each teams paint scheme weighs, Williams head of vehicle performance Dave Robson said their change was gaining them quite a lot, while Aston Martin previously revealed theyd saved around 350 grams by removing some of the AMR22s green-painted panels.

Removing the paint is a simple, cheap and easy-to-do short-term solution, freeing up teams limited budget and resources to plan further upgrades later in the season.

However, its not without risks. From a marketing side, theyve got to be careful not to lose the teams unique identity to distinguish from the others cars on track, or offend a sponsor by axing their logos.

On the engineering side, stripping off paint might seem like a win-win decision but it could make overheating a lot worse.

The dark, exposed carbon fibre absorbs heat. This can lead to vastly different temperatures across the car and makes areas, such as the engine, very vulnerable especially on tracks like Singapore where the teams are already struggling to keep the cars cool.

Whilst for the moment you can clearly tell your Williams from your McLaren out on track, dont be surprised if we see a few more teams bringing out the paint remover soon.

While we may be doing everything right in our weight loss journey, right from diet to exercise, an important component of this pyramid is sleep. Adequate sleep also aids in weight loss, stressed nutritionist Lovneet Batra.

Sleep is like nutrition for the brain. If youre trying to lose weight, the amount of sleep you get maybe just as important as your diet and exercise. So, if your goal is to lose fat, skipping sleep is like poking sticks in your bicycle wheels, she said in a post on Instagram.

Why is inadequate sleep bad for ones health?

*Causes impact on cortisol levels. Insufficient sleep can cause the release of additional cortisolthe stress hormoneand can stimulate hunger.

*Interferes with the bodys ability to metabolise carbohydrates and causes high blood levels of glucose, which leads to higher insulin levels and greater body-fat storage. Insulin sensitivitydrops by more than 30 per cent.

*Drives down leptin levels, which causes the body to crave carbohydrates.

*Reduces levels of growth hormonea protein that helps regulate the bodys proportions of fat and muscle.

Lack of sleep is linked to poorer food choices, increased hunger and calorie intake, decreased physical activity, and ultimately, weight gain, she said.

Weight loss action plan

Getting at least seven hours of sleep consistently is important for weight management and your overall health, she advised.

Tips for sleep quality

*Fix your sleep schedule*Avoid blue light one hour before bedtime*Use relation techniques (meditation/reading book/journaling/have a cup of chamomile tea)

Want to lose weight? Make sure you are following this hack - The Indian Express

Eating certain types of food could help you shed the pounds if you're struggling to lose weight, a study has found.

The reasons for why some people struggle to lose weight more than others are complex and include a variety of environmental and social factors. But new research has found a key factor which explains why some people find it harder to maintain a healthy weight than others due to having a 'low satiety response.'

People with a 'low satiety response' find it harder to recognise appetite signals and satisfy their appetite, experts found. They're also more likely to reach for snacks and take longer to feel full after eating, which often leads to them consuming more calories.

However, the study, led by Dr Nicola Buckland and a team of researchers at Leeds University, found that eating certain types of foods over others can help people with a low satiety response feel more in control of their appetite and protect them from the risk of over-consuming calories, making it easier to lose weight. These foods, which are lower in energy density or calories per gram, include everyday staples such as fresh fruit and veg, lean meat and poultry, eggs, pasta, rice and fat free dairy products.

Two groups of women with a mixture of low and high satiety responses took part in the study, with one following a calorie counting diet and the other following Slimming Worlds Food Optimising plan, which is based on healthy, low energy dense foods, eaten freely, which tend to be lower in fats and sugar, and higher in protein, complex carbohydrates and fibre,

Researchers found that when people with a low satiety response ate meals containing low energy dense foods they were more in control of their appetite and their food choices than when they were given high energy dense meals.

GPs, nurses and other health professionals often refer patients to Slimming World through the NHS who they feel would benefit from their weight loss management programme.

Professor James Stubbs from the Leeds research team said: People who have a low response feel less satisfied after eating. Theyre more likely to crave high fat foods, to snack between meals and generally are less able to stick to their plans around food choices therefore theyre more likely to consume more calories than people with a high satiety response and find it harder to manage their weight.

"Theyre also less likely to be able to lose weight because of how hungry they feel and how difficult they find such a weight loss regime to sustain. What this research looked at for the first time is how, for those people who have a low satiety response, choosing foods low in energy density (those foods naturally low in calories per gram) could help them feel fuller, limit their calorie intake and so help their weight loss."

Dr Jacquie Lavin, Head of Research and Scientific Affairs at Slimming World who contributed to the study, said: The findings suggest that encouraging slimmers to base their meals on generous amounts of low energy dense foods is likely to have a protective effect, helping them manage their appetite better, and thereby protecting them from consuming excess calories.

Experts share best foods to eat to lose weight and maintain it - Liverpool Echo

Intermittent fasting is one of the popular ways used by people to lose weight. One such diet plan is called 16:8, which has been endorsed by celebrities and nutritionists alike here's what you need to know

Image: Getty Images/iStockphoto)

When it comes to popular diets, the 5:2 diet has received a lot of attention. An equally popular but much less restrictive diet plan is the 16:8 diet.

The 5:2 diet popularised by diet guru Michael Mosley, has dieters eating normally for five days of the week and restricting calories to 500-600 per day for the remaining two days.

Meanwhile, the 16:8 diet, popularised like celebs like Jennifer Aniston and Hugh Jackman, focuses on helping people lose weight by reducing the amount of time they have available to eat.

Here's what you need to know about the 16:8 diet including how it works and the best foods to eat.

Image:

The 16:8 diet is a form of intermittent fasting in which you break the day into two periods consisting of 16 hours and eight hours.

Under this diet, people will fast for 16 hours in a day - consuming only things like water, unsweetened soft drinks or drinks without milk - and then consume all their calories for the day during the remaining 8 hours.

There are no restrictions regarding the types of amounts of food you can consume during the eight-hour period.

The diet has been designed to works fast, with the longer fasting period intended to give the body the time it needs to process food and burn away extra fat.

While the 16:8 doesn't place any restrictions on what you can eat, it's still important to choose whole foods and ones that are high in vitamin content.

Some of the foods that are best to consume on the 16:8 diet are:

Image:

The 16:8 diet works on an hourly basis, which means you eat within an eight-hour time frame and then fast for the remaining 16 hours of the day.

This kind of diet plan helps with weight loss by helping you eat fewer calories and also boosting metabolism. After several hours without food, your body exhausts its sugar reserves and starts burning fat, in a process called "metabolic switching."

This is a natural process, which happens when the body runs out of energy given by food. When this happens, the body starts drawing energy from ketones stored in the fat cells, which helps us lose weight.

The 16:8 diet also helps speed up your metabolism, by causing a rise in a stress hormone called norepinephrine, which makes larger amounts of fat available for your body to burn.

When your metabolic rate is faster, it means you burn calories by doing even basic activities like sitting down, eating and sleeping. However, exercising while intermittent fasting is also encouraged to help build muscle mass.

If you're considering losing weight you should consult a GP, who can give you advice.

AS we age, weight loss just seems to get that little bit trickier.

Trying to shed the pounds at 50 is a whole different ball game to when youre in your 20s.

3

Its undeniably frustrating, however, if losing weight is on your agenda and youre struggling to see a shift in the scales, dont throw in the weight loss towel just yet.

Although we know that calories in vs calories out is the underlying factor in weight loss (basically, burn more calories than you consume), there are so many other elements that do come into play and staying healthy through life plays a huge part in our weight.

We asked the experts for their sage advice on losing weight and staying well, no matter your age.

When you are in your 20s, you may be leading a fast-paced lifestyle, and while your metabolic rate will be the highest it ever will be in your adult life, it can be difficult to lose weight thanks to poor diet choices, says David Wiener, Training and Nutrition Specialist at Freeletics (www.freeletics.com).

From eating the wrong foods to skipping meals, eating on the run and drinking more alcohol, it is during your 20s that bad habits can hinder weight loss.

In the kitchen

During these younger years, your body is still susceptible to growth, so enjoying a wide range of vitamins and minerals, which aid and support that growth, is important.

Minerals such as calcium will be important at this stage of your life, as well as vitamin D, which is necessary for immune and hormone support, says David.

The best way to get vitamin D through your diet is by eating fortified cereals, sardines, tuna, cheese and egg yolks.

However, vitamin D is primarily sourced via sunlight.

Thanks to the UKs cold, dark winters, the NHS recommends that everyone take a vitamin D supplement from October through to March.

As for calcium, enjoy dairy-rich foods as well as leafy green vegetables, and fortified foods, like certain plant milks, breakfast cereals and breads.

Staying active

David explains that in your 20s, the body is strong and can handle intense workouts. For optimum weight loss benefits, a combination of strength and cardiovascular training is advised.

Mix up weight lifting with running or cycling for example. Even brisk walking is a great cardio exercise.

Forming a healthy and consistent relationship with exercise in your 20s could be the key to a long-term relationship with exercise.

The fitness regime you develop in your 20s helps to build the foundations for a stronger body which will naturally get weaker as you begin to age, adds David, who also recommends incorporating balance and flexibility into your fitness regime. Try yoga and/or Pilates.

In your 30s, David says typically youre at a maintenance time of your life with regards to fitness and weight loss.

However, if you overdid it in your 20s, you could be trying to deal with the damage and the effects of your metabolism starting to slow down, which may lead to your weight creeping up.

In the kitchen.

We lose muscle throughout every decade of life, but your 30s is likely the time when you will begin to notice, so a diet rich in lean protein is beneficial.

Enjoy foods such as chicken, turkey, tofu, fish and eggs.

If youre following a plant-based diet, protein sources include pumpkin seeds, peanuts, almonds, black beans, tofu, chickpeas, and grains like quinoa, says David.

Maintaining or building muscle helps to increase the number of calories your body burns at rest, useful for weight loss.

As well as this, fertility for men and women might be a focus in the 30s.

Diet plays a huge part in this, and the foods for fertility health are also great for weight loss.

Including folate-rich foods like spinach, broccoli, and avocado, as well as healthy fats like olive oil, nuts, and seeds is beneficial, as well as reducing your intake of saturated fats and junk food, readily found in takeaways, ready meals, and convenience foods, explains David.

Staying active

I would advise strength or bodyweight training to increase muscle mass, says David.

If time is something youre struggling with, opt for HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) workouts.

Interval training is a great way to increase your fitness levels and calorie burn and its performed by alternating intense periods of physical activity with short periods of rest so that your body can recover briefly before you up the intensity again.

Not only is this style of working out a great time saver, it's brilliant for building endurance and boosting the metabolism.

Check out HIIT workouts on Youtube for follow-along videos that can be done at home, with little to no equipment.

Rosie Stockley, womens fitness specialist and founder of Mamawell, adds that bone density decreases in your 30s; yet another reason to incorporate resistance training as this can help to maintain bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis later in life.

Rest days are important too, in order for the body to process and restore.

3

Day to day

David adds that in your 30s you may also have children, which can affect the amount of time youre able to rest and sleep.

Studies have found that inadequate amounts of sleep are associated with weight gain, an increased appetite, decreased metabolism and less motivation to exercise.

When an individual does not get enough sleep, this can impact hunger levels significantly.

When you dont get enough sleep, the levels of ghrelin (the hormone that makes you feel hungry) rises and the levels of leptin (the hormone responsible for making you feel full) drops.

Boost your sleep by switching off electronic devices at least an hour before bedtime and try to get into bed earlier to maximise your resting hours.

For women in particular, this is likely to be one of the most stressful decades thanks to the juggle of work and family life, as well as a potential change in hormones thanks to perimenopause.

In the kitchen

Nutritionist Rob Hobson warns that while you may have been able to eat more of what you liked in your 20s and even in your 30s, this is not the case when you hit 40.

As muscle mass is declining, he recommends eating protein with every meal.

Protein also helps with satiety which is useful when trying to lose weight.

I dont believe in cutting out carbs from the diet, however, its not a bad idea to make your meals more protein and vegetable based and reduce your carb intake a little to help with weight loss.

Opt for wholegrain/wholemeal carbs as the fibre they contain can help to keep you feeling full between meals.

To avoid naughty food temptation, keep all unhealthy snacks out of the house.

Rather than stock up on crisps and chocolate for the kids, get them all involved with healthy snacking on dips, fruit and yoghurt.

Save the other stuff for occasional treats.

For women, hormonal changes can mean that annoying fat tends to linger more around the tummy area.

Fluctuations in oestrogen may affect you in a number of ways but you can offset these by including foods rich in plant oestrogens.

Enjoy plenty of fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and wholegrains.

Soy foods are very rich in plant oestrogens so try including a little soy in your diet during the week.

Hormone changes also affect bone health; eat calcium rich foods, or calcium fortified plant-based foods such as plant milks or yoghurts.

Ultimately, Rob says that in the forties, its best to ditch complicated diet regimes.

Instead, make sustainable, healthy changes to your eating regime.

Staying active

Rosie explains that as women approach the menopause, the hormonal shifts in the body dont just affect muscle mass, but bone density too.

Plus, it can be harder to shift unwanted weight.

Many women may find that their usual fitness routine may be less effective in their mid-40s onward; that they arent seeing the results they were used to.

Resistance training is key for women at this stage of their lives to increase muscle mass and strength.

This will also help with weight control, general mental and physical health and confidence.

Not sure where to begin? There are a multitude of videos online; just be sure youre following programs by a qualified personal trainer.

Its also important to avoid stressing the body out too much with overly strenuous exercise, as this can actually wreak havoc with hormones and cause unwanted fat to linger around longer.

This is the opposite of what were trying to achieve.

Day to day

Stress can wreak havoc on weight loss goals; not only can stress impact hormones in women, getting in the way of dropping the pounds, but for both genders it can lead to excess food intake, in particular foods that provide little to no nutritional benefit for the body.

Focus on ways to manage your stress, says Rob.

Adopt good sleep hygiene techniques that are personal to you take a bath before bed, ditch the phone/laptop before bed, try breathing or meditation techniques and take time to create the perfect sleep oasis by organising your room to be quiet, cool and comfortable.

During these years, the tactics needed to lose weight are very similar.

David explains that the natural decline in muscle mass as you age decreases your metabolic rate and makes it harder for you to lose or maintain your weight.

This means that your weight creeps up over the years, even if your diet hasnt massively changed.

In the kitchen.

As well as continuing to ensure a diet that contains plenty of protein to avoid the decline of muscle, during our 50s, we become more conscious of our health overall, including our cholesterol levels.

Eating too much food that is high in saturated fat can cause your cholesterol levels to be high.

In the UK, the main sources of saturated fat that we indulge in include pies, sausages, butter, cheese, cakes, and biscuits.

We should also be avoiding oils high in saturated fats such as palm oil and coconut oil, says David.

To help lower your cholesterol levels and ensure a healthy diet for weight loss, enjoy foods rich in unsaturated fats, such as olive oil, nuts, seeds, oily fish and avocados.

Fruits and vegetables are also known to be rich in vitamins and minerals that we need to lose weight and be healthy, as well as being high in fibre.

Certain high-fibre foods can help reduce the cholesterol in the blood by blocking the absorption of saturated food in the gut, reveals David.

Aim for at least 30g of fibre a day.

A skin-on baked potato contains around 4g, a portion or Bran Flakes around 8g, an apple contains 3g and a banana around 3g.

Really struggling to shift the weight? Rob explains that it could be down to an underactive thyroid, so its worth getting checked by your GP.

3

In the gym

A focus on strength training is still important to help prevent brittle bones and injuries which become more commonplace as you age.

Plus, it continues to help with muscle mass and enhances metabolic rate.

This doesnt mean going to extremes; bodyweight exercises and exercises using light dumbbells can have a positive impact on muscles and bones.

During the 60s and beyond, you might find you have a less active lifestyle, which naturally can result in weight gain, so boosting your activity levels is one way to combat weight gain, or indeed lose weight if that is your goal.

Walking is a great low impact and low intensity exercise.

Over time, you can begin to walk faster or further, but for beginners, regular walking is a good place to start, says David.

Swimming is also a brilliant cardiovascular, low impact workout which is kind to your muscles and joints.

As you push and pull yourself through the water, your body will be fighting against resistance, building muscles and working your body as a whole, gently.

David adds that yoga and Pilates are beneficial; helping to flex your muscles, keeping them supple and building strength gradually.

5 Best Belly Fat Burner That Lose You Weight Fast - Firstpost

do you know that Watch tv Before bed prevents you from losing weight? To lose weight, it is not enough just to maintain a healthy diet or to exercise constantly.

Its just that there are some basic practices that need to be implemented, as well as others that need to be eliminated. In this context, we will show you the night habit that you should ditch to lose weight.

Continue after announcement

That is why it is necessary to take into account the practices that we do daily, especially at night, as they will be necessary to maintain a healthy weight and, if you want to lose weight, will also affect the process.

According to experts, watching TV is the habit that you should break in order to lose weight, as it will not only encourage a more sedentary lifestyle, but watching it for a long time before going to bed can contribute to weight gain and sleep disturbance.

Additionally, studies have shown that cutting TV time in half can burn an additional 120 calories per day. This figure will not be insignificant if it is multiplied by the number of days in a year, which allows you to significantly lose weight. According to experts, the argument is that the TV screen emits blue light, which alters the circadian rhythm and makes it difficult to fall asleep at night.

Following this line, professionals claim that the nocturnal habit of watching TV will reduce sleep cycles. Thus, being in front of a screen affects your comfort, so you are likely to notice some fatigue in the morning and opt for a more sedentary lifestyle. Not only does this interfere with your goal of shedding those extra pounds, but its also bad for your health.

Continue after announcement

This does not mean that in order to lose weight you have to completely get rid of the habit of watching TV at night, but that you can watch it for a maximum of an hour and then exercise, to help you sleep and lose weight as well.

But she's paying cash for said trainer so her painfully dull husband, Dan (Robert Baker), doesn't find out.

It was my first time seeing Goodwin on screen since she starred in the 2011 rom-com Something Borrowed (which I admit, I've seen many times since then), and I must say, she looked great. So great that upon hearing her character say she wanted to get back in shape I thought, "EXCUSE ME?" and feared her words might lay the groundwork for a larger weight-related storyline. When Jodie's friend Sarah (Maggie Q) supportively chimed in to say, "You know the only weight you have to lose is Dan?" I breathed a sigh of relief. Unfortunately, my relief was short-lived.

The Fox single-camera comedy follows three longtime pals Jodie, Sarah, and Amy (Eliza Coupe) as they struggle to cope with the death of their best friend, Coleen. Each mourning her loss in different ways, they all set out to become new versions of themselves. Sarah abandons her career in medicine and starts working at a local grocery store. Amy tries to spend more time at home with her kids. And Jodie decides she wants to lose weight and have an affair with her hot trainer, Matt (JT Neal).

I had high hopes that Pivoting could help fill the Good Girls void in my life, especially since the cast including Amy's husband, Henry (Tommy Dewey), and Coleen's husband, Brian (Colton Dunn) are charming as hell. But its first season left me conflicted. The majority of Pivoting's antics are amusing, and its characters have a ton of potential. But the show is undermined by a careless and harmful weight-loss storyline.

Jodie's weight-loss storyline is primarily used as a means to explore her conflicted feelings about her marriage, but writers could have achieved their desired result an affair without establishing her unhealthy obsession with slimming down. If they felt the weight-loss storyline was necessary for Jodie's arc, they should have set out to better understand and portray the complexities of diet culture and eating disorders on screen. Rather than rise to the challenge, writers crafted a storyline ripe with offensive, over-the-top weight jokes that perpetuate fat-shaming.

The fact that weight loss came up three minutes into the series wasn't the only red flag in Pivoting's pilot. Later in the episode, Hot Trainer Matt asks Jodie if she's shed any pounds recently. She explains she's down a couple and is doing the intermittent fasting he recommended, to which he replies, "You're gonna be back in your skinny jeans before you know it. You're gonna look so freaking hot!"

His comment rudely implies that Jodie isn't already "so freaking hot" at her current weight, which she is, and it promotes a ridiculous, tired correlation between attractiveness and slim physiques.

Three episodes later, the flirty fitness sessions between Jodie and Matt culminate with a spontaneous kiss in his car. There's a clear spark between the two, but before you can fully appreciate it, Jodie frantically asks, "Can I lose eight more pounds first before we do more?" The two move in for another smooch, and Matt pulls away to utter one of the most egregious lines of the series: "Can we make it six pounds?"

Not only is this joke outrageously unfunny, it's also straight-up insulting and reduces a serious issue to a punchline. No matter how it's packaged, commentary related to eating disorders can be triggering and harmful to people. It can also perpetuate unhealthy ideas about weight loss and unhealthy relationships with food. A June 2020 report cited by the ANAD (National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders) predicts that 28.8 million Americans, or nine percent of the U.S. population, will have an eating disorder in their lifetime. It also notes that eating disorders are the cause of 10,200 deaths per year. If writers are going to craft characters who have fitness goals or set out to tell stories related to body image and disordered eating, it's crucial that they do so responsibly especially on a show with as much reach as Pivoting, which airs in a primetime slot on a major cable network and streams episodes on Hulu the following day.

It's clear that Pivoting's writers need to pay closer attention to, and in some cases change, the way the people in Jodie's life respond to her self-deprecating comments and obsession with weight. Not just Matt, but also her friends.

In the pilot, Jodie forces her legs into a pair of skinny jeans to impress Matt. When she can't get them off, she calls Amy and Sarah for backup, and they wind up taking her to the ER after accidentally puncturing her leg with a pair of scissors. It's meant to be a comical low point, but it's also a perfect opportunity for Jodie's friends to intervene and remind her that she doesn't need to lose weight or fit into a certain pair of pants for anyone that her worth, in fact, isn't related to what she weighs at all. They don't.

The lack of concern about Jodie's well-being especially from Sarah, who's dedicated her life to medicine is disappointing to say the least, though it's worth noting that Matt, Amy, and Sarah don't always reinforce Jodie's negative body image comments. Several episodes show them responding with positive, supportive affirmations, such as, "You're not bulky, you're beautiful" and "I think your body is amazing as is," but their support is inconsistent and their messages are mixed.

The way Pivoting's writers craft Jodie's behavior and mindset as it relates to weight loss is also of concern. In Episode 6, Jodie tries to speed-lose a pound to meet her goal weight so she can feel confident enough in her body to sleep with Matt. After her husband shows her a modicum of kindness, she feels guilty and wonders if cheating on him would be a mistake. Rather than have a mature conversation with her trainer (or anyone!) about those feelings, the writers chose to give her an exaggerated reaction. Jodie dumps a bunch of bread and chocolate into a large bowl and starts ravenously shoveling carbs into her mouth in hopes of quickly gaining weight back, so she won't have to sleep with her trainer just yet. We later see her eating a pizza by herself, and telling Amy, "I'm binging. Don't judge me." Amy ignores the comment and starts talking about herself.

In the cold open of the following episode, Jodie reveals she's gained four pounds in a week. Amy tells Jodie she's gorgeous, and Jodie replies, "Ugh, I was so close to my goal weight, I had a thigh gap and everything. And now my affair with Matt is put off till TBD. I can't even fit into the leggings I want him to rip off of me and throw across the room in reckless abandon."

Just when you thought the scene couldn't get any worse, Jodie says, "Ugh! I've gotta go. I wrote 'thigh gap' on my calendar."

Perhaps the writers are trying to be edgy by striking a particular style of humor that gives off majorly fed-up Bad Moms vibes, but it comes across as more lazy than funny in regard to Jodie's storyline. The tone doesn't sit right with the conversations we're currently having about diet culture, which have moved far beyond what we see in this show. There's been such a promising push for body positivity and representation over the past few decades online, onscreen, and in the media and it's troubling to see an otherwise delightful show be dragged down by a reliance on offensive, outdated weight-related plot points.

It's understandable to react in uncharacteristic ways after a loss. But using a topic as delicate as diet culture and repeatedly enforcing the view that a thin woman needs to lose weight or, frankly, that any woman needs to lose weight! to get that message across is just wrong. If Jodie's desire to "get back in shape" does exist to emphasize a larger struggle with self-love or disordered eating, I hope writers stop brushing her struggles off with humor and ensure she gets the help and support she needs. If this storyline is truly nothing more than a byproduct of misguided writing, however, I'd urge the team to start giving Jodie more substantial storylines that focus on her crumbling marriage, her affair, motherhood, her desire for independence, or her unfulfilled career ambitions, rather than her weight.

Viewers got a glimpse of Jodie's storyline potential in the refreshing, genuinely enjoyable Season 1 finale. The episode showed Jodie and her husband finally having an honest conversation about their marital issues, and her and Matt hanging out without placing focus on her weight. I hope writers continue to strive for that sort of depth should Pivoting be renewed for a second season.

Jodie deserves better, and so do viewers.

The first season of Pivoting is currently streaming on Hulu.

However, it is important to categorize food into eat less of, eat some of and eat more of categories. The last would include Vitamin D rich foods for strong bones and teeth such as dairy products, cereals, salmon, tuna, soy, oatmeal and lots of fruits and vegetables. All of these foods would also promote heart health and build a strong foundation for the future. Fiber-rich foods are next on the list.

Some mornings you may wake up and feel like enjoying something lightlike Greek yogurt with berries, or a slice of toast with avocado. Other mornings you wake up ready to create the breakfast from your dreams: big, full to the brim, and filled with energy. Whatever mood you're in in the morning, why not start with a delicious meal that fuels the body and that can help you reach weight loss goals?

According to the Mayo Clinic, adults who eat a healthy breakfast have a greater chance at maintaining a healthy weight, have more controlled blood sugar levels, and even tend to perform better at work. There's no need to skip the first meal of the day, especially when it has so many great benefits to losing weight and keeping the weight off.

Julie Upton, MS, RD, CSSD, a registered dietitian and communications specialist for Appetite for Health, explains that a common weight-loss mistake of people who cook breakfast in the morning is trying to cut out certain foods or even whole food groups. This can "make their weight loss effort very unsatisfying and then they crave their favorite foods," or possibly backslide into bad eating habits.

One step you can take to avoid this mistake is to eat "protein-rich" breakfast foods, says Upton. A high-protein breakfast keeps steady blood sugar levels and helps the body absorb carbohydrates at a slower pace, which in turn can be a major factor in weight loss.

There are plenty of healthy breakfast options out there to not only keep your body content, but also nourished and ready for shedding off some of that extra weight. Luckily for us, Upton shared healthy breakfast recipes for all seven days of the week!

"Soy-based meat alternatives are all good options for breakfast," Upton explains. She makes an amazing egg and veggie scramble that includes: eggs, plant-based sausage, bell peppers, tomatoes, and any other veggies she enjoys or just has on-hand around the kitchen. If you're on a weight-loss journey, definitely keep your plate bright and full of veggies!

Vegetables are categorized by the CDC as low energy-dense foods, meaning they are low in calories but still impact the feeling of fullness. Many studies have seen vegetables have a great effect on fat loss. A study published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that when their participants would increase their intake of fruit and vegetables, they were not only more likely to lose weight, but also maintain weight loss. The more veggies in one's diet, the greater chance of leaning out and/or retaining a smaller figure.

A breakfast burrito that is flavor-packed, healthy, and can help you reach weight-loss goals? Sign us up! Upton recommends her breakfast burrito recipes of two eggs and one egg white (or four egg whites total) scrambled with spinach, mushroom, chopped tomatoes, or salsa, all wrapped up in a small whole-grain tortilla.

This breakfast burrito has all the healthy nutrients you need: protein, veggies, healthy fats, and carbohydrates. Upton says carbs aren't anything scary, in fact, she encourages "people to have some carbs for energy."

If you focus on getting in a lot more complex carbs, you can see much greater success in losing weight. The International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health explains that complex carbs are "derived from whole and unprocessed plant-based foods," which have more nutrients and will usually take longer for the body to digest compared to simple carbs. Not only do complex carbs have more nutritional valuelike fiber, vitamins, and mineralsbut they are also stored in either muscle cells or the liver to give you long-lasting energy until hunger strikes again.

A solid go-to for Upton is creating various combinations using Greek yogurt with a load of toppings. One is her Greek yogurt parfait, which starts with 8-ounces of non-fat plain Greek yogurt, one cup of fresh berries, and a 1/2 cup of quick-cooking oats. Combine layers of fruit, yogurt, and oats in a parfait glass or jar, and then top with two teaspoons of honey or agave.6254a4d1642c605c54bf1cab17d50f1e

Upton enjoys recommending this recipe specifically because it's "a great combo as the Greek yogurt is protein-rich and has no added sugar," both of which play a huge part in weight loss. Diets with a lower intake of dietary sugar have been seen to show significantly more weight loss than diets with no restriction, according to the BMJ.

Protein pancakes with Upton will have you never wanting to go back to basic pancake batter ever again. Her recipe uses one small ripe (overripe is better) banana, two eggs (or one egg and two egg whites), one tablespoon of nut butter, a pinch of cinnamon, and a drop of vanilla or almond extract (if desired).

"A good rule of thumb is to try to get 20 to 30 grams of protein at breakfast," Upton recommends.

Not only is protein very filling, but in terms of weight loss, it can benefit the body in different ways. The American Society for Nutrition found research that shows how a high-protein breakfast can foster healthy weight loss by strengthening and growing your muscle mass, giving your body more energy to be physical, and satisfying hunger hormones. In plain terms, protein will help build strong muscles that guide your body in burning more calories just by using energy doing everyday activities, while also keeping you full throughout the day.

And there's more where that came from, here's out our recipe for The Best Protein Pancakes Recipe.

The open-faced egg sandwich of Upton's choice includes two soft-boiled eggs served over a toasted whole-wheat light English muffin with arugula or spinach, sliced tomato, and two teaspoons of reduced-fat spread/light butter. All of this with a piece of fresh fruit on the side, and she says you'll really be ready to start your day off right.

Upton mentions that eggs can be one of the best foods for weight loss. Having eggs for breakfast can help soothe a frequent appetite and promote strong weight loss, according to one study published in Hormone Research and Paediatrics. The study saw how a high-protein content can be most effective for anyone trying to lose weight, due to the positive change in appetite hormones and regulating hunger satisfaction.

Instead of grabbing a plain bowl of cereal with milk, optimize your flavor pallet and contribute to your weight loss by reaching for more healthy foods. Upton recommends a bowl of cottage cheese with cereal and fruit, using 3/4 cup low-fat cottage cheese, 1/4 cup Grape-Nuts Fit cereal (which has six grams of protein in a 2/3 cup), and one cup of fresh berries.

Cottage cheese has a great source of low-calorie protein, according to Doctor Oz. Not only is cottage cheese perfect to throw into foods for an extra protein boost (such as pancakes, smoothies, salads, and more), but it also has a high source of calcium and B-complex vitamins.

Oats should be high on your list of foods to eat when trying to lose weight, according to the Harvard School of Public Health, because they have special antioxidants that are created by phenolic compounds and phytoestrogens (plant-based chemicals found in oats). These antioxidants act to reduce the effects of inflammation and calm digestion.

Upton suggests oatmeal with yogurt as a healthy weight-loss breakfast by including one cup of oatmeal with 1/2 cup non-fat or low-fat plain Greek yogurt, and one cup of fresh or frozen (no added sugar) berries right on top.

"I like oats due to their high concentration of beta-glucan, a soluble fiber that helps keep you satisfied and stabilize blood sugar levels," she says.
