Research Hiatus!!



So what have I been doing that I haven't been blogging about this fitness journey?
Well, Reading!!

My long term goal is to become a nutritionist and help people live their lives in vibrant health.  Even though school is at least a year off for me, I started to get interested in some of the things that I would be studying. I researched some of the subjects I would be studying and took it upon myself to do a little reading myself. Most of it has stemmed from living my New Fit Body lifestyle and learning why so many changes have worked or not worked for me. Processed free living has changed my life, even more drastically in the past few months as I've fine tuned some of my habit and really put my focus on the program.

So for the last three months I have looked up and read so many books that will pertain to my focus as a nutritionist and dietitian.

Here's some on the list:

ALL of Michael Pollan's Books
100 Days of Real Food
Potatoes Not Prozac
The Glycemic Index Revolution
The Science of Skinny

My focus has really been on processed free living and eliminating processed sugars and processed wheat products. My focus has shift so hard to this because all of the largest changes I have seen in my health have happened as I dedicate myself to eating real foods that are less processed.

The research on food processing is stunning and these books really lay it on the line for you. Between all of them there is so much information on the history and ethics of food processing. Also, there is so much research to go through on how it affects us. I am still going through some of them but these are great and just in the last month, the changes I've made to my diets have been substantial enough to see visible results! In the following posts I will be outlining some of the amazing points these books make and the changes I have made for processed free living.

It's all on the journey to my New Fit Body.
