5 Zero Calorie Hunger Busters by Medical Weight Loss in Philadelphia
In today’s post I am going to review and interesting Journal article I recently read on things that can trigger your cravings and give you 5 easy tips to help control your appetite.
I recently read an article in the journal Brain and Cognition, and it stated that flipping through food magazines and even watching the ever more popular cooking shows can cause you to salivate even if you are not really hungry. But if you are hungry they can make you feel like you are starving. So have a large bottle of water with you to quiet those hunger pains.
Your feelings and emotions can also trigger your hungry. I know that stress, sadness and grief always make me more hungry.Y
So here are 5 easy tips to help curb your cravings and appetite.
One of the oldest diet tips I know is to fill your tummy with water. Or you can eat foods that have lots of liquid like beef or chicken broth. Snack on celery in between meals because they also contain lots of water. Vegetables are great because they give you lots of healthy nutrition that you body needs
Get Physical, when you start to feel hungry drink some water and go for a walk for 15-20 minutes. You can also ride a stationary bike at home, walk on a treadmill or just walk up and down the steps in your house (but don’t trip!). Some of our patients like to do body-weight exercises like jumping jacks or pushups or just run in place. The exercise will help burn calories and also help to reduce your appetite.
One of Dr. Levinstein’s weight loss tips is to brush and floss your teeth after dinner to help you not stack after dinner.
Another tip is to enjoy some sugar-free gum. This is a tip that I use, especially when I am really hungry and not able to eat.
My wife’s favorite weight loss tip is to put a few drops of peppermint oil on a cotton swab, then place them in a jar with a lid. When you are hungry just unscrew the lid and smell the peppermint. This should help should help curb your appetite.
I hope you enjoy these weight loss tips! If you would like more information on our weight loss program just give us a call at 215-821-7336

With all of the juicing recipes I’m going to give you in this article you have the option to add water to it to dilute it if necessary. If you are watching your carbs in your sugar intake you may have to change the recipes a bit by reducing the quantity of fruit for each particular recipe.
Personally for myself I do not eat more than two pieces of fruit per day. For example if the recipe calls for 4 pieces of fruit I would just use a quarter of each of the individual fruits and make my drink that way. If you are into the high intensity phase of your exercise program and you are feeling overly tired these strings are good for a quick boost of energy. Just be sure to dilute them a bit by adding water to the recipe. You can also add Spirulina or any type of green vegetable powder to any of these juice recipes.

How To Kill Your Appetite by Medical Weight Loss Philadelphia
Turbo charge your weight loss with these hunger killing recipes. If you pay attention to social media you’ve probably seen so many of today’s celebrities following a low-carb diet and losing lots of weight fast. You also hear them using the term fat bomb. And in today’s post I’m going to tell you why eating these fat bombs are helping celebrities lose weight and keep it off; and I will give you some really quick and easy recipes for fat bombs (just like the celebrities are eating).
Now, fat bombs are basically little tiny bites of food that are mostly made up of good healthy fats like coconut oil, cream cheese and avocado. The reason they work is because they activate a small section in the small intestine that releases hormones that decrease or stop your appetite. Yes, you read that correctly. When you eat good healthy fats and they pass through this section in the small intestine, the intestine releases hormones that will help to decrease or stop your desire to eat (for as long as 3 hours for most people). When you combine these fat bombs with our weight loss pills and our sensible eating plans you have an awesome combination to help you achieve your weight loss goals. But I must ask you please not to add these fat bombs into your diet haphazardly. Please discuss adding these to your nutritional plan when you see me on your next visit.
Here are the recipes:
Lemon & Cheesecake Fat Bombs
coconut oil – 1/4 cup
unsalted butter 1/4 cup
cream cheese – 4 oz
fresh lemon juice – 2 tablespoons
Stevia – to taste
Place all of the above ingredients into a bowl and blend them well together. Next, just pour them into a candy mold and allow them to freeze until they are firm. This recipe usually makes 10 pieces.
Coconutty Fat Bombs
coconut butter – 1/2 cup
coconut oil 1/2 cup
shredded unsweetened coconut – 1/2 cup
Stevia – to taste
Place your coconut butter and coconut oil in a pot over a low flame and stir until it’s nice and smooth and then stir in the shredded coconut and stevia. mix everything until it’s combined together. then, just pour it into a candy mold and let it freeze until it’s firm. Next you can melt approximately 3 oz of dark chocolate and just pour it over top of your firm coconut cups and set it back in the freezer. This recipe usually makes approximately 10 pieces.
Pizzaz Bombs
Pepperoni – 14 slices chopped
Pitted olives – 6 diced olives
Sun dried tomatoes – 4 of them that are oil packed – diced
Cream cheese- 4 ounces
basil – 1-2 tablespoons
Spice to taste – pepper, oregano, etc…
Combine everything together in a bowl. You can use a hand blender. Then just use your hand to roll about 7 nice sized balls

First pulse your blender and then you can turn it up as your mixture becomes more liquid. While the mixture is blinding you can add the additional carrots a little bit at a time and of course add the spices to taste.

This recipe is so super simple to make all that you have to do, is lay out your cabbage leave and just place the cilantro, basil, mint, pepper and carrots inside and roll the cabbage leave and finally dip it into the teriyaki sauce that I just gave you he recipe for. I have to tell you, this recipe is so quick and easy to make and it’s so very refreshing. You’ll be quite surprised that your teenagers and 20-year-olds will really enjoy this the course of its crispness, coolness and tasty teriyaki sauce.

So. there you have 4 recipes to hopefully help you lose weight but also improve your overall health and wellness.
Remember, losing weight is not about losing 30 pounds in 30 days. Good healthy weight loss is having a definite plan that entails changes in your lifestyle that you are willing to make. Choosing to follow a plan that involves making healthy lifestyle habits is the only way that you will be able to maintain your weight loss. Losing 30 pounds in 30 days is quite doable if you have the right plan. The usual problem is maintaining that weight loss beyond the 30 days. That’s why in our Philadelphia medical weight loss program we place so much emphasis on teaching you the proper way to eat. We try to teach you how to make the right choices when it comes to food and when it comes to activities. So that you may maintain the weight loss that you achieved with our program. So, if this resonates with you I invite you to give us a call and schedule your free weight loss consultation. Call us now at 215-821-7336 and Lisa will be happy to schedule your consultation.

Stevia – 6 – 8 packets of stevia depending upon your taste
Frozen strawberries – two bags

Here we go again! Start this recipe by putting all of the above ingredients into a blender with just about 4 ice cubes and start by pulsing the mixture and then turn it up to your higher settings on your blender. Very carefully and slowly and the rest of the ice cubes. once again remember you may not need to use all of the ice cubes. I usually only use about 10 ice cubes but some of our patients use more.
