Super Low Carb Recipes!!!!!

Low Carb Twist on Asian Chicken Burger

There are a lot of misconceptions about diet and exercise.  Most of them come from our natural desire to want instant gratification without much work.  Here at Fitmidlife, we like to call this the "magic pill" syndrome.  
I know that most people have been brought up to believe that you can cardio your way to a lean body and that all you need to know is calories in must be less than calories out.  It is my hope that by now everyone understands that all calories are not equal and that most of us benefit from a lower carb diet.  Fortunately, sometimes eating low carb just means taking a good recipe and tweaking it like the Asian Chicken Burger shown here.  If you dump the buns and put it on a bed of spinach, you've got a great tasting meal that will satisfy your need for variety on a low carb diet.  Some people won't be swayed by anything less than regular old junk food.  Well here is a pizza recipe you can try out while going low carb.

Have Your Cake and Eat It !!!

Low carbohydrate meals that taste great are coming!!!

Everyone starts the new year and wants to get fit or at the very least lose a few pounds. A big part of that is taking on a new diet along with that new gym membership.

Surprisingly, it is not uncommon for novice and seasoned fitness fanatics to have lots of questions concerning what they should eat. We all know people who change their diets like they change their socks. They try grapefruit diets, warrior diets, juicer diets, low fat diets, etc., etc., ... I once stopped a friend from haphazardly combining multiple diets that could have literally put him in the hospital. Then there are those who follow the tune of "diets don't work so don't bother."  I say to each his own, but the bottom line is that learning to eat for purpose instead of pleasure is neither easy nor popular. 

Wouldn't it be nice if there was a road map through the complex world of eating for fitness?

Guiltless Low Carb Chicken Fajitas!!!

If you are on a diet and still want great tasting food, let me give you a hand.  This is a little dish my wife throws together during the week.  The clean up is a little less because she uses the grill and it keeps the house nice and cool in the summer.  Please keep in mind that I am a NON COOKER.  I burn water and I have been banned from multiple kitchens including people that raised me.  It's just a safety thing ;-)
