<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>So many great posts from <a href=”http://christhekiwi.com/”>Chris “The Kiwi”</a>. Here’s his take on How To Be Your Ideal Self…</span></h1>
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>Hey mate,&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>I hope this finds you better than ever!&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>What do I mean when I say “better than ever”?&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>Well mate, it means I hope you’re happy in all aspects of life, especially your<a href=”http://www.fourhourbodygirl.com/2014/06/tweetable-health-quote_22.html#.U8WTQBbxVok”> health</a>.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><strong>You see</strong>, everything else in life is really is just an extension of your health and happiness.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>I honestly believe that in order to be the best, happiest version of yourself you need to have optimal health. You should chase phenomenal health.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><br /></span>
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>Not once, in years of working with thousands and thousands of people, have I EVER had anyone dramatically improve their health and NOT feel a lot happier than they were before.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>“Hey Kiwi, I am leaner, more energetic, and sleeping like a baby. I have more energy, better focus, no pain, and my libido is through the roof.” This is “making me less happy”, said no one, ever.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>Want to be an awesome mother, father, husband, wife, or [Fill in the blank]? It all stems from your personal health. &nbsp;You will find it easier to be any of these, easier to be happy, if you focus on having&nbsp;<strong><a href=”http://www.fourhourbodygirl.com/2014/05/grocery-shopping-list-for-ultimate.html#.U8WTbxbxVok”>phenomenal health</a></strong>.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><br /></span>
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>You may&nbsp;<strong>have</strong>&nbsp;the&nbsp;<strong>”ideal you” pictured in your mind</strong>.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>Perhaps you see yourself with more energy and zest for life to do the things you love to do, particularly with your loved ones.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>However you may not be there yet and find yourself feeling lousy for it. To be&nbsp;<strong>100% honest</strong>, I have been there in my life and I know how it feels… a bit hopeless.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>However I want you to attack this from the opposite angle.&nbsp;<strong>You are not helpless</strong>, you have an&nbsp;<strong>amazing opportunity</strong>.</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><br /></span>
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><strong>Right now</strong>&nbsp;you have the opportunity to&nbsp;<strong>turn your health around</strong>, and improve every aspect of your life. (<a href=”http://ctt.ec/O9l76″>Tweet This</a>)</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>If you are already there, keep staying after it.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>If you feel you are miles away stay positive and keep your health a priority. With time and healthy habits, you will be better. I believe in you.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>Keep putting food first. Make food&nbsp;<strong>QUALITY</strong>&nbsp;a priority every time you are hungry.&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”>Keep taking your&nbsp;<strong><a href=”https://www.athleticgreens.com/v3/trinity/index.php?AFID=1019&amp;SID=&amp;utm_source=1019&amp;utm_medium=Affiliate&amp;utm_content=TrinityLP&amp;utm_campaign=Trinity”>Athletic Greens</a>&nbsp;</strong>(I don’t go a day without them). Get healthy sun exposure. Exercise in proper amounts. Try to get outdoors more. And most of all laugh a lot. And you will be a better the best version of you! (which is what it is all about).</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large; line-height: 1.6em;”>That is a Kiwi Promise!&nbsp;</span><br />
<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large; line-height: 1.6em;”><br /></span>
<span style=”color: orange; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><b>Your life really does depend on your health. I &nbsp;just wanted to share some words of encouragement. They have helped me, I hope they help you.&nbsp;</b></span><br />
<span style=”color: orange; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><b>Until next time… Go get it mate!&nbsp;</b></span><br />

<span style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: large;”><strong>“100% Focus On Happiness”&nbsp;</strong></span><br />

Losing Pregnancy Weight

Here’s a little collage of me pregnant and then 1 week after giving birth! It’s all because of my diet and  the energy and nutrition I get from Athletic Greens. ***Please note that I did add some whole grains to my diet such as oatmeal, quinoa, and brown rice as well because I breastfed my baby exclusively and wanted to make sure I had enough calories, vitamins, minerals and fibre for his new start to life.

Are you pregnant and conscious to lose weight after pregnancy? If so, then you are also among 90% women who are worried
about their weight after pregnancy. Even some ladies can adapt quick methods like diet pills to
regain their pre- pregnancy shape; making such decisions is dangerous for them and their baby if they are breastfeeding.
In order to reduce weight; you should be physically as
well as mentally prepare for that. Its common, you gain weight during 9 months of
pregnancy. After giving birth, your body is working to contract your belly to
its pre-pregnancy state, but it can be a slow process. Many women may loose 8 to 20
pounds during first two weeks of
pregnancy.
After 6 weeks your body has started to get back to where it needs to be
internally, so it’s best to wait to do any 
exercise during those 6 weeks. Allow your body to rest from the strain it’s been under.
Mothers of new born baby are wondering the best way to reduce weight immediatelyWhen it’s time, here are some facts to reduce
pregnancy weight, 
to shrink your body or loose your extra weight


Always…
Breastfeed Your
Baby:
All women
face question – how they can lose pregnancy weight quickly? The most natural way is
by breastfeeding your babies. This is the fastest and most suitable way to lose pregnancy weight. It may help your
uterus to come back to its normal size. The most important advantage is that ladies who breastfeed, can burn 500-800 calories each day!
A Nutrient Rich Diet: It is another method that helps
to reduce your weight quickly.
Eat colorful fruits and vegetables as much as possible;
but don’t include the fruits having much sugar (like grapes, or mangos), because sugar doesn’t do a body good and could cause obesity. 
Reduce the all sweets from your diet (if possible)  like chocolate (I still had a few pieces dark chocolate every day), cake,
pastries etc. don’t eat too many 
fat rich products– take a little amount that are consumed by your body.
Also reduce carbohydrates rich food (like white breads, rice, pasta, potatoes etc).
Carbohydrates and deep-fried, fatty food play an important role in obesity.
Drink lots of water in each day, especially if breast feeding. Experts say that
8 glasses are necessary per day.
Exercise: exercise is an important way to
reduce weight. I usually say 80% diet, 20% exercise. Firstly, consult with your doctor. When you need to start? Which
exercise is efficient for you? 


After consulting with doctor, start exercise accordingly. Always warm up.
Walking is a great way to lose extra weight. Walking in green environment
at morning time provides extra results to you. If you are a breastfeeding mother, then it gives you wonderful results. You can also choose yoga for it- it may develop grace, strength and wisdom. 
I waited 6 weeks before I did anything except walk and I think I waited at least 3 weeks before I went to the end of my street and back. My baby is 5 months now and I’m still only walking (1 mile walks in the trails near my house), doing really light yoga once in a while, and running around lifting him and playing with him for my exercise. Nothing too strenuous although that’s something I would like to improve upon.
    
Consequently above mentioned guidelines are more helpful
to reduce your extra weight. If you would like to know more about other tips
