THE TAMPERER, feat MAYA "IF YOU BUY THIS RECORD"

PREPARE LUNCH IN LESS THAN 5 MINUTES! On the go? This lunch is healthy and takes just under 5 minutes to prepare. It focuses on Natural "whole" ingredients and portion control. I prefer to fix and/or bring my own meals so that I can control the amount of additives and portions that I eat. I have noticed that a small bag of chips includes 3 servings!  Wow!  Therefore, I like to make my own. LUNCH IN A FLASH:   Non Gluten Sour-Dough Bread Fresh Cut Roma Tomatoes Natural Creamy Peanut Butter w/ Grape Jam Stone Ground Tortilla Chips Plain Yogurt with Frozen Blueberries (not pictured) I buy plain  yogurt in a large tub and add my own fruit and sweetener.  I like blueberries because they are high in anti-oxidants and found frozen.

ATTACK BODY FAT THROUGH JOGGING! Jogging is one of the best ways to stay fit.  It is also a very efficient exercise for burning calories.  To estimate the amount of calories burned during a jogging / run session utilize the "Net Calorie" burn formula: “0.63 x (weight lbs) X  total number of miles ran.”  This "net calorie" formula measures calories burned minus basal metabolic rate/metabolism. This is considered the best way to estimate actual calories burned. Example: for a 150 pound male or female jogger who just completed a 5 mile run. The calculation would be: .63 X 150 lbs = 94.50 94.50 X 5 = 472.5 Calories Burned Jogging outdoors will typically burn 5 percent more calories than running indoors.  However, jogging in water burns twice  as many calories per minute as that on land!  Reference: For more information check out the full article here:  http://www.ehow.com/about_5435940_many-calories-burned-jogging-miles....
