Often it is because of some awful childhood memory of being forced to eat them regardless of how badly they were cooked. The following simple roasting recipes address two of these veggies: Brussels sprouts and broccoli. These recipes are simple, adaptable, and delicious enough that they just may change your mind. Roasted Brussels Sprouts: This is an easy recipe that results in delicious Brussels sprouts that are crispy on the outside and tender in the middle. Great with the addition of some minced garlic, or drizzled with balsamic vinegar. 1 ½ pounds Brussels sprouts 3 Tbsp of good quality olive oil ¾ tsp kosher salt ½ tsp fresh ground black pepper Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Trim the end off the Brussels sprouts and remove any outer leaves that are yellow. Add the sprouts, olive oil, salt, and pepper into a large bowl and toss until evenly coated. Pour onto a baking sheet and spread evenly. Roast the Brussels sprouts for 30-45 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally to ensure even browning.Roasted Brussels Sprouts]]> Roasted Lemon-Parmesan Broccoli]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Love-The-Veggies-You-Love-To-Hate/3659283 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 06:58:15 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Love-The-Veggies-You-Love-To-Hate/3659283 Tips for Eating Out on a Weight Loss Diet]]> Tips for Eating Out]]> Weight Loss Diet]]> oversized portions]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Tips-For-Eating-Out-On-A-Weight-Loss-Diet/3634530 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 04:40:40 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Tips-For-Eating-Out-On-A-Weight-Loss-Diet/3634530 "I need to lose weight. I need to do more cardio." As a fitness professional I hear this everyday, and it hurts. Do people not realize that aerobics for fat loss are mostly a waste of time? Do people not realize that they could get much better results with interval training and still have a lot more time to do some resistance training as well? You're probably thinking, "No they don't. Well, at least, I don't." This is because it has been long accepted that cardio is best for weight loss and weight training is best for muscle gain. Unfortunately, it's not quite that simple. The real reasons are beyond the scope of this article. This article will serve as an introduction to interval training. In future articles, I will add some science and let you know just why long duration, low intensity cardio is mainly a waste of time when it comes to fat loss. There are many myths out there concerning weight loss and fat loss, and I am on a mission to debunk them one by one. But first, here is something you can do that is very effective for fat loss.Interval training]]> Insanity Workout]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/No-More-Aerobics---Go-With-Interval-Training-For-Fat-Loss/3628559 Sun, 05 Feb 2012 10:54:34 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/No-More-Aerobics---Go-With-Interval-Training-For-Fat-Loss/3628559 eating water rich fruits]]> Curb your appetite]]> Eating meals regularly]]> Tips to Prevent Overeating]]> prevent overeating]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/5-Easy-Tips-To-Prevent-Overeating/3619661 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 05:46:45 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/5-Easy-Tips-To-Prevent-Overeating/3619661 cutting down calories]]> Portion Control Tips]]> curb the appetite]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Easy-Portion-Control-Tips/3619546 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 05:19:04 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Easy-Portion-Control-Tips/3619546 Being overweight and obesity are major health hazards faced by mankind in this twenty first century. Unlike other health hazards overweight and obesity are caused by carelessness and indifference on the part of the persons who succumb to it. When there are a number of easy and economical methods to overcome overweight and obesity, one may wonder why people are so callous about this ever daunting health hazard. If you are a person having trouble with your weight this is an article intended for you. Before betting on weight loss, let us find out whether you are obese or not. This can be found out by finding out your body mass index number. The body mass index number is obtained by dividing a person's weight in kilograms by the square of his or her height in meters. A body mass index number greater than 25 is considers as overweight and when this figure exceeds 30 it is considered as obese. So if your body mass index is greater than 25, then it is confirmed that you are having trouble with your body weight.lose bodyfat]]> betting on weight loss]]> bodyfat]]> working out]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Betting-On-Weight-Loss--A-Practical-Approach-To-Speed-Up-Your-Weight-Loss/3603993 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 17:40:25 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Betting-On-Weight-Loss--A-Practical-Approach-To-Speed-Up-Your-Weight-Loss/3603993 healthy lunch ideas]]> Chickpea Pasta and Spinach Soup]]> Tabouli Salad]]> Healthy Lunch Recipes]]> Lime and Cilantro Couscous]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Healthy-Lunch-Recipes/3602033 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 02:50:19 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Healthy-Lunch-Recipes/3602033 don"t skip meals]]> unhealthy snacks]]> prevent weight gain]]> Weekend Weight Gain]]> eating habits]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Avoiding-Weekend-Weight-Gain/3601898 Fri, 27 Jan 2012 02:16:59 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Avoiding-Weekend-Weight-Gain/3601898 It is often the things we are most resistant to that we most need to address - so when you find yourself hitting some resistance, take note and make a conscious choice to explore that in more detail. What we resist, persists, too. So one of the best ways to resolve inner resistance to things, is to learn how to let it go. Most of us assume we already know what the problem is (Too much body fat? Not enough exercise?) and we assume we know what to do (Find more time. Do more exercise.). But sometimes by assuming we know the answers, we lose sight of what the actual problem is, or we miss the fact that the problem is multi-faceted. It is one reason why using solutions that 'worked in the past' so often doesn't work. We get results for a variety of reasons, when we make several changes together. Our assumptions and 'confirmation bias' means we usually see what we think should have been the most important success factor, and attribute that to all the results. We think we now know the answer, and just need to implement that again to get results.fitness]]> health]]> weight loss]]> mindset]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Can-You-Open-Your-Mind-Enough-To-Find-True-Weight-Loss-Success-/3529585 Wed, 04 Jan 2012 19:07:08 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Can-You-Open-Your-Mind-Enough-To-Find-True-Weight-Loss-Success-/3529585 You want the straight shooting tips for effective weight loss without the hype, well then you have come to the right article. There are many ways to lose weight but only a handful that have stood the test of time and proven to work for most individuals. This article shares 5 straight-forward tips for effective weight loss that give you the results you want. Most people believe that exercise needs to be a long and protracted effort, in order to work as a fat loss workout. The truth is that if you continue exercising when you are already fatigued, you will really not gain much out of it. Higher intensity and shorter duration weight loss workouts are a lot more effective, efficient and even practical as far as time constraints go. Alternative medicine: this includes the use of herbal medications and other non-scientific methods such as dahn yoga. Some of these may even be exactly what the modern science teachers but differ in the manner in which it is done. Intense workouts are very effective in burning fat and calories. The faster you go, the more you burn fat and calories.Effective Weight Loss Tips]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Quick-And-Effective-Weight-Loss-Tips/3483583 Thu, 22 Dec 2011 01:45:46 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Quick-And-Effective-Weight-Loss-Tips/3483583 Delicious Vegetarian Dinners]]> Vegetarian Dinners]]> Vegetable Curry]]> Carrot Ginger Soup]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Delicious-Vegetarian-Dinners/3469296 Sun, 18 Dec 2011 12:23:55 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Delicious-Vegetarian-Dinners/3469296 There may be some contradiction in the concept of 'loving what we have now' and striving to change things. But it is likley that you are not your ideal weight or fitness because you have not been kind and caring to yourself. Eating junk and not moving are NOT loving - our bodies crave this! Loving our bodies will result in weight stabilising and excess bodyfat naturally dropping. If you want to push things or take an accelerated approach, that is fine too, but you MUST do it from a positive, accepting and loving place. Achieving a certain weight / size / body fat percentage will not change you as a person, or make you a better person. But it is a fine goal if you want it to be! Whatever is right for you, you can do it. You do not have to conform to any particular 'school' or approach. You simply need to commit to your approach, and stay focussed on your goal, moving forwards with each step. If you feel that you must go for the most extreme and 'painful' approach to getting in better shape, then this book is very relevant for you!Weight loss strategies]]> healthy weight loss]]> sustainable weight loss]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Do-You-Love-Yourself-Enough-To-Lose-That-Extra-Weight-/3446612 Mon, 12 Dec 2011 18:11:19 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Do-You-Love-Yourself-Enough-To-Lose-That-Extra-Weight-/3446612 Benefits of Strength Training]]> Strength Training]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Advantages-Of-Strength-Training/3439438 Sat, 10 Dec 2011 04:13:45 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Advantages-Of-Strength-Training/3439438 When it comes to losing weight, interval training is an excellent approach which produces great results. However, small changes in your training routine can have big effects, and it is important to maximize your time spent in the gym. What tips and techniques can you utilize to see dramatic weight loss with your interval training efforts? Here is a short list of great ideas, which will enhance your workouts on a day to day basis. First, if you don't know what interval training is, it is simply a type of workout, which blends high-intensity exercise with less intense training. These are paired in sets, and the sprint intervals are where you push yourself to the limit. These are usually much shorter in duration, and can be as little as 15 seconds long. An example of a sprint interval is running at full speed for 30 seconds, or doing an uphill climb on a stationary bike for 10 minutes. This is followed by a rest interval, in which you are still working out, just at a much lower level. This allows your body to recover from the load placed upon it during the high-intensity exercise.weight loss]]> fat loss]]> interval training]]> losing fat]]> losing bodyfat]]> losing weight]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/How-Interval-Training-Can-Help-You-Lose-Weight-Fast-/3418680 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 19:41:07 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/How-Interval-Training-Can-Help-You-Lose-Weight-Fast-/3418680 Bad Fats]]> Good Fats]]> monounsaturated fat]]> unsaturated fats]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Skinny-About-Fat/3418322 Sun, 04 Dec 2011 08:56:56 -0500 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/The-Skinny-About-Fat/3418322 healthiest of restaurant meals]]> Portion Control]]> Smart Restaurant Choices]]> healthy eating habits]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Making-Smart-Restaurant-Choices/3267003 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 05:00:33 -0400 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Making-Smart-Restaurant-Choices/3267003 Body Mass Index]]> BMI]]> Bodyfat]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Healthy-Weight---Issues-Of-Calories-And-Bmi/3256932 Fri, 28 Oct 2011 05:30:31 -0400 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Healthy-Weight---Issues-Of-Calories-And-Bmi/3256932 get enough protein]]> Drink more water]]> Eat more often]]> fighting hunger pangs]]> Ways To Eat Less]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/4-Ways-To-Eat-Less-Without-Feeling-Hungry/3238997 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 07:06:04 -0400 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/4-Ways-To-Eat-Less-Without-Feeling-Hungry/3238997 common excuses]]> never exercised]]> Exercise Excuses]]> exercise]]> ]]> http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Beating-Exercise-Excuses/3238978 Tue, 25 Oct 2011 07:01:08 -0400 http://www.articlesnatch.com/Article/Beating-Exercise-Excuses/3238978
