21 | Four Seasons Hemet Herald | March 2014 | | Four Seasons Hemet Herald | March 2014 | 22 Book Club Quilt Club Canasta & More Mah Jongg Club Hand & Foot Mexican Train Apples, Pears and Hourglasses try to present material which will help us better choose the food products that are best for us. Below is an example of the kind of information that is provided to team members. Check out the foods you should "break up", as recommended by several personal trainers and nutritionists: (we include only one here but have provided the website for more information.) "Tossing aside anything salty, sweet, or fried is a no-brainer when it comes to trimming your waistline. However, nutrition experts say there are still certain dishes and drinks, often overlooked, that should get a swift kick to the curb. Whether they increase our daily calorie intake or simply put us at certain health risks, swapping for healthier, dare we say tastier, options isn't as difficult as trying to squeeze into your favorite jeans again." White Flour: "It's devoid of any nutrients and spikes your blood sugar," warns model-turned-trainer Kristin McGee, who has worked with Tina Fey and LeAnn Rimes. As a tastier and more filling substitute, McGee recommends eating whole grains instead. "I personally love Ezekiel sprouted bread," she says. "If you toast it and add some natural peanut butter and a drizzle of honey, it will beat white bread, cookies, and other pastries any day." Apples, Pears and Hourglasses is a support and information group. Our main focus is to encourage our members to strive for a healthy lifestyle.
