31 Days to a New You!!
It is that time of year again. With the New Year also come's New Year's resoultions. For most individuals a typical resolution is to lose weight, eat less, join a gym, and look forward to having a great body sometime in the future. The problem is that many fail a few weeks into the year, even those who felt highly motivated at the outset.
The main reasons why people stray from their New Year’s resolution in just a few weeks, because one they fail to have a plan and two they don’t see quick enough results. Which really is crazy we take the year and for some of years to get in or “out” of shape and expect it to reverse in days. Crazy!!! So realizing this—I was putting together my own plan for the New Year and thought I would share it with you. Personal experience this is a 31 day fail safe plan to get you started, and you will see faster results.
Now although this is 31 days—at the end of the 31 days you keep going with a better lifestyle. Don’t go back to your bad fat gaining habits. To truly shift your metabolism and create better habits you want to see it out for 90 days… After 90 days your new lifestyle habits are a part of you and you do healthy things everyday without even thinking about it.
Step 1: Preparation. order the Transitions™ Starter Kit code 6412, nutrametrix® code is 6412nm. In addition order the 3 day sample packs of ThermoChrome™ with Advantra Z® and South Africa Hoodia 6405TP3. Go to the grocery store and get a ton of FRESH green veggies (e.g asparagus, broccoli, spinach, green beans, green leafy lettuce, etc… You can do the other colors too tomatoes, onions, bell peppers). Now your proteins: – egg whites, fish (salmon and tuna), organic skinless chicken breast (if you can’t do organic- don’t buy it) and raw almonds. Soothers low sodium vegetable broth, and decaffeinated herbal teas (e.g green teas, dandelion, red clove, peppermint). You can have any type of herbal seasoning.
Step 2: Assessment. Open Transitions Starter Kit, take out the daily Journal and review the measurement page. Take your measurements, weight, waist, hips (women), chest (men) and body fat percentage.
Step 3: Set a goal. After you have completed your measurements check where your body fat falls on the body fat assessment chart (A.C.E.). Your goal should not exceed .5 percent fat loss on average per week. (For your information, a one inch waist loss usually corresponds with an approximate 1% body fat loss).
Step 4: Start.
Day 1 – 7 Shock your System.
You are going to stay away from sugar, fruit, dairy, fats (oil, butter), grains and starches, potatoes, breads, and pastas (even high fiber brands).
No sugary drinks (juice, soda or teas), meal shakes, protein shakes, coffee (not because of the caffeine but the acidity), vinegars; no products that contain fructose, stevia, sucrose or sucralose.
This is only for 7 days – so relax.
Example:
Every morning: Start with a cup of herbal tea
Before Breakfast: Take (2) ThermoChrome Advantra Z and South African Hoodia gordonni with a full glass of water
(Women may choose to reduce to only 1 tablet)
Now why start Transitions Thermochrome (TC)?—Transitions (TC) is a unique blend of herbs, extracts and vitamins that promises to provide you with calorie burning (thermogenesis), fat burning (lipolysis) and energy. *
Breakfast:
Egg whites (omelet or scrambled)
2-4 cups of green veggies
Snack:
Vegetable Broth or Fresh Homemade Vegetable soup
Handful almonds
2-4 cups of veggies,
8oz of Water
Before or After Lunch: Take (2) TC Advantra Z with a full glass of water
(Women may choose to reduce to only 1 tablet)
Lunch:
Fish, Chicken or Egg Whites,
2-4 cups of veggies
8oz of Water
Snack:
Herbal Tea
Vegetable Broth or Fresh Homemade Vegetable soup,
Handful almonds
2-4 cups of veggies
8oz of Water
Dinner:
Fish, Chicken or Egg Whites
2-4 cups of veggies
8oz of Water
Exercise Day 1-7: Cardio, Cardio, Cardio (interval) +
Time Intensity/Speed Incline
10 2.5 0%
5 2.5 5%
5 2.5 10%
5 2.5 15%
5 2.5 10%
5 2.5 5%
5 2.5 0%
If you are a beginner—reduce speed and incline. How you determine the right speed and incline. You should not have to hold on to the side handles. You can also consider cutting the time and incline in half. +Always consult with your physician before starting any exercise program.
Following this for the first 7 days – you will see instants results and jump start your metabolism at the same time.
Day 8: Measure, Weigh and Start on Level 1 Transitions Lifestyle System.
You can find sample menu and food list in your Transitions Daily Journal. You will be incorporating back other sources of proteins, fruit, low GI carbs like beans, yams, etc. It is important that you journal and keep track of how you feel—like stuffed, and or bloated especially around the waist.
You are also going to start your CAI (carbohydrate inhibitor) and FCI (fat conversion inhibitor). Follow directions on the bottles. This combination is key to seeing the quick results you desire. CAI and FCI is a novel combination of ingredients which support weight loss, by helping maintain healthy blood sugar levels, combat carb sensitivity and support fat usage instead of fat storage. *
Before Breakfast: Take 1 CAI and 2 FCI
Breakfast:
1 protein serving
2-3 cups vegetables/salad
8 oz glass Water
Snack:
1-2 cups vegetables/salad
Before Lunch:
Take 1 CAI and 2 FCI
Lunch:
1 protein serving
2-3 cups or more vegetables/salad
1 low-GI carb serving
8 oz glass Water
Snack:
1-2 cups vegetables/salad
Dinner:
1 protein serving
2-3 cups or more vegetables/salad
1 low-GI carb serving
1 fruit serving
8 oz glass Water
Day 8 Exercise: 30 Minute Stretch
You can find stretching examples on http://www.transitionslifesytle.com/
Day 9 Exercise: Flatten your Belly
Seated Knee Tuck 1x (25 reps)
Side Plank both side 2 x (25 reps)
Twisting Jackknife 1x (25 reps)

Day 10 thru 16 Exercises:
Day 10, 12, 14 and 16
Cardio Interval (found above)
Day 11, 13, 15
Cardio Interval (20-30 min)
Strength/Resistance (20-30 min)
Break it down into Lower Body and Upper Body
Example: Lower Body
Lunges, Squats, Pleas squats – When focusing on lower body – these are some of the largest muscles, so it means that you will get your biggest burn. Do at least 8 different exercises. You don’t have to have weights; with no weight- do 1 set of 25 reps of each. Pick and choose lower body exercises and see demo on (http://www.transitionslifestyle.com/)
Upper Body (back, shoulders, biceps, triceps and chest) you will want to follow the same rules. Bodylastics is also a great way to get an all over body strength workout.
Abs (found above)
Day 17 Exercise: 30 Minute Stretch
Day 18 thru 23 Exercises:
Cardio Interval (60 min)
Day 19, 21 and 23
Abs (found above)
Day 24 Exercise: 30 Minute Stretch

Day 25, 27, 29 and 31
Cardio Interval (found above)
Day 26, 28, 30
Cardio Interval (20-30 min)
Strength/Resistance (20-30 min)
Abs
By the end of the 31 days – You will see a new you evolving. Now it’s time to mix it up—change your cardio, your strength training and abs. Some ways to change it up is length of time, reps, weight or changing the exercises all together, which I highly recommend. Follow for 30 days(continuing FCI, CAI and using the daily journal) and the last half of the 90 days you can go back to the beginning.
So there you have your (our) plan – 31 Days to a New You! We can’t wait to see your results.

12 Days of Optimal Health - Heart Health Advanced CoQ10
Today we are going to address heart health, energy and immunity - benefits that we all desire and benefits we can achieve through supplementation with Market America's Heart Health™ Advanced CoQ10.
CoQ10, short for coenzyme Q10 is found in each of the 50-75 trillion cells in the body, except for mature red blood cells! CoQ10 revitalizes and energizes our body's cells and immune system. It also contributes to stamina and endurance as it acts to fuel the body's energy production process.
Energy is required for every single process in the body from breathing to blinking to keeping our heart beating. The production of this energy would not be possible without CoQ10. However, the concentration of CoQ10 in our body naturally decreases with age.
Heart Health Advanced CoQ10, in addition to supporting energy production in the body, is a potent antioxidant, helps maintain heart muscle strength and healthy blood pressure and supports brain health and a strong immune system.*
Make a decision to be healthy and feel healthy from the inside out.

12 Days of Optimal Health - nutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder
Getting enough fiber daily is an absolutely essential part of maintaining optimal digestive health. The Institute of Medicine recommends daily intake of 14 grams of fiber for every 1,000 calories we eat. So, if you eat about 2,500 calories each day, you need to be getting at least 35 grams of fiber. Unfortunately, the average American only consumes about 12 grams of fiber daily. Unfortunately, in this culture of processed foods and drive thrus, most of us are coming up very short in the fiber department!
NutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder not only helps to promote bowel regularity and relieve occasional constipation, it also helps to maintain healthy cholesterol and blood glucose levels! In addition to having 9 grams of fiber in each scoop, it also contains the essential amino acid L-glutamine as well as a probiotic blend.*
Start this year with a small change that can make a difference and add NutriClean Advanced Fiber Powder to your daily routine.

Internet Marketing Tips - What is a fanpage?
Last week, we touched on the proper ways for you to show your support for a friend, product, business or cause that you’re passionate about by ‘becoming a fan. With the advent of Facebook fanpages, there are a number of advantages in using a fanpage in conjunction with a standard profile on Facebook. This week’s tip is to share with you a few of the advantages to using a Facebook fanpage.
Advantages of using a fanpage:
- Add content auromatically!
- Do you maintain your own blog? Integrate it into a fanpage to keep content fresh by using your RSS feed from your website!
- Promote events
- If you've got a kick-off meeting or follow-up scheduled, promote it to all of your fans through your fanpage! Each fan will then be notified about new events with just one click -- saving you time in the process!
- Share your business!
- Rather than bombarding your friends with message after message, invite them to join your fanpage and support your business!
- Inviting someone to join your business helps maintain solid relationships with your friends and family.
- If you promote your business through your standard profile, it could lead to people 'unfriending' you due to excessive business promotion.
- By creating a fanpage for your business, your friends have 'opted-in' to receive notifications about your business, indicating they want to know what's going on.
- Customize your fanpage by adding Applications.
- Interact with fans
- By creating a fanpage, your biggest fans (your customers), will be able to interact directly with you, the business owner! This helps foster good communication and makes a customer feel valued.
To help get you started, create your first Facebook fanpage!
If you’re looking for an example of a Facebook fanpage setup for a business, become a fan of Market America!
And remember to follow last week’s guidelines about naming your fanpage. If anyone has
questions on creating or using fanpages, please send an email to
internetmarketing@marketamerica.com to have them answered.

12 Days of Optimal Health - Multivitamin

Nutrient deficiency may cause fatigue, weakness, dizziness, memory loss, impaired immune function, poor vision and brittle bones.

Loren Ridinger, Senior Vice President of Market America, hosted the hottest and most sought after invitation only event during Art Basel Miami as she welcomed Hollywood celebrities, star athletes, leaders of industry, art enthusiasts and select VIP’s to her Miami Beach home this past Saturday for an exclusive fashion show where Versace previewed their new 2010 spring/summer collection.
Held in conjunction with Vogue and Versace, invited guests at “Evenings in Vogue” were treated to a stunning fashion show that included never before seen pieces from Versace’s newest collection while enjoying the elegance of Loren and JR Ridinger’s Miami Beach estate, Casa De Suenos. Among the invited guests who attended the event were Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, Alicia and Mike Piazza, Larsa and Scottie Pippen, Vanessa Williams, Russell Simmons, Cliff Floyd, Tarek Al Fassi, Harry Morton, Prince Salman Al Saud, Michael Michele, Ana Cristina Álvarez, Inga Rubenstein, Johan Lindeberg, Robin Quivers, Ashley Gibb, Therese Gibb and Katrina Campins.

Internet Marketing Tips - Show your support and become a fan!
Besides connecting with friends and family, social networking also helps businesses connect with individuals in ways that never existed. For example, you may have ‘become a fan’ of Market America or another business that you liked at some point or been asked by a colleague to support their own business by ‘becoming a fan’ and sharing it with your network of friends.
Showing your support by setting up a fanpage, group or profile for your business is a great networking tool. Not only does it help you to increase your rank on Google (yes, fanpages get ranked by Google), but you’re also helping to attract customers to your business!
Recently though, we have received a number of emails from people asking how they should list themselves when they want to promote a business or brand. This is important: even on social networking sites, you must properly represent yourself. A misleading page, group, or profile can get you into trouble.
Below are a few examples to help you out. Also note that you can say (Unofficial) for either a group, fanpage or profile.
Incorrect Usage:
- “Market America”
- “Motives® by Loren Ridinger”
- “Motives® by Your Name”
- “Your own business name”
- “Your web portal name” - Indicate the name, not the URL
- “Market America (Unofficial)”
- “Market America (Independent Distributor)”
- “Market America (Independent UnFranchise® Owner)”
- “Motives® by Loren Ridinger (Unofficial)”
- “Motives® by Loren Ridinger (Unofficial group)”
- “Motives® by Loren Ridinger (Independent Distributor)”
If anyone has questions on listing their business on social networking sites through a fanpage,
group or profile, please send an email to internetmarketing@marketamerica.com.

Beauty in a snap
1. Moisturize. With the winter wind blowing moisture out of the air and indoor heating producing dry air, the moisture in your skin takes a serious blow. Apply a rich moisturizer to keep skin healthy and plump. If your skin is oily, look for a moisturizer with an oil-free formula, instead of skipping it altogether. Sun reflecting of snow and ice can be especially damaging this time of year, so look for a moisturizer with a built in SPF.
