WEDNESDAY AND TRIPLE DIGITS ARE

LISA: IF YOU'VE EVER TRIED TO
LOSE WEIGHT YOU KNOW IT IS NOT
EASY.
AND IF YOU HAVE EVER WATCHED
NBC'S THE BIGGEST LOSER, YOU
KNOW THE CONTESTANTS HAVE A LOT
OF HELP ALONG THE WAY TO HELP
THEM ON THEIR WEIGHT LOSS
JOURNEY.
INCLUDING, CHEF AND
NURTITIONIST.
CHERYL FORBERG.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
HERE.
WE ALSO HAVE THE
RUNNER-UP FROM
LAST SEASON "BIGGEST LOSER,"
SONYA JONES.
START MAKING SALAD.
WHAT IS A SALAD YOU THINK IS A
GREAT WAY FOR YOU TO LOSE
WEIGHT.
SOMETHING WITH LOTS OF
FLAVOR.
SONYA IS GOING TO MAKE A LOW-FAT
DRESSING FOR ME.
LISA:
I LOVE GRAPESEED OIL.
IT IS GOOD FOR YOU.
YES, AND I START WITH TWO CUPS
OF QUINOA.
IN THIS
CASE, FOR THOSE WHO ARE
ON THE GO AND IN A RUSH, YOU CAN
BUY IT ALREADY COOKED.
ONE OF THE KEY THINGS
IS
PLANNING AHEAD AND EATING IT
PREPARED, SO YOU ARE NOT EATING
AT YOUR DESK, STANDING UP, ALL
THE THAT WE TEND TO DO.
I'M ADDING SOME CURRENT, SOME
FRESH BASIL, SOME FRESHMEN, SOME
LEMON ZEST, AND MY FEATURE
INGREDIENT TODAY, I'M FEATURING
SOME CHOPPED DISTASIO'S --
PISTACHIOS.
LISA: A GIVES IT A LITTLE
CRUNCH, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE
CRAVING CHIPS.
AND THEY ARE REALLY GOOD FOR
YOU.
AND THEY ARE
LOADED WITH
FIBER, SO THEY MAKE YOU FEEL
MORE FULL AND IT LAST LONGER.
SOME YOUR WILL WITH THAT.
LISA: AS WE ARE GETTING THIS ALL
TOGETHER, WHAT ARE THE BEST WAYS
TO LOSE WEIGHT AND KEEP IT OFF
WESTMARK WHAT ARE THE TOP THREE
THINGS YOU WOULD SAY ?
FIRST, MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW
HOW MANY CALORIES THEY ARE
BURNING STUFF FIND THAT OUT
RIGHT AWAY.
FOR EXAMPLE, SONIA NEEDS ABOUT
1200 PER DAY, SO I DIVIDE THAT
I.
SHE HAS THREE 300
-- THREE 300
CALORIE MEALS AND TWO
150
CALORIE SNACKS.
DON'T SKIP MEALS
BECAUSE YOU
WILL
WHEN YOU DO EAT COMMITTEE
TOO MUCH AND TOO FAST.
FRUITS AND VEGGIES, LEAN
PROTEINS.
LISA: YOU WENT THROUGH IT ALL.
THE WEIGHT AND ARCHIVING IT OFF.
WHAT ARE THE KEY THINGS TO YOUR
LIFESTYLE?
SEVERAL THINGS.
NUMBER ONE, YOU HAVE TO PLAN.
PLAN YOUR
EXERCISE, PLAN YOUR
MEALS, PLAN YOUR SNACKS.
I TAKE PISTACHIOS WITH ME A LOT
OF PLACES I GO.
MAKE SURE YOU MEET YOUR
CALORIES, DON'T DRINK THEM.
UNLESS IT IS MILK.
AND KNOW THAT YOU ARE WORTH IT.
YOU ARE WORTH IT ENOUGH
TO
PRIORITIZE YOUR HEALTH AND
WELL-BEING AND SET SMALL,
ATTAINABLE GOALS AND GO AFTER
THEM.
LISA: WHAT WAS THE BIGGEST
WEIGHT LOSS MYTH THAT WAS BUSTED
FOR YOU WHEN YOU WERE ON THE
SHOW?
JUST LIKE CHERYL SAID, DON'T
SKIP MEALS.
I WOULD NOT EAT UNTIL SOMETIMES
NOON, SOMETIMES 3:00.
I DID NOT EAT BREAKFAST.
I WAS GIVEN SEVERAL MEALS.
-- I WOULD SKIP SEVERAL MEALS.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE FOOD YOU
LOVE.
I WOULD EAT PISTACHIOS AS A
SNACK AT THE RANCH ONE TIME AT A
BECAUSE IT TOOK ME LONGER TO EAT
IT AND IT CAP ME FULL OR LONGER.
THAT IS WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THEM.
AND CHOOSING HEALTHY SNACKS.
LISA: I LOVE THE FINISHED
PRODUCT HERE IN THIS BOWL.
I HEAR ALL THE TIME IT IS
IMPORTANT TO HAVE PROTEIN FIRST
THING IN THE MORNING.
IS THAT TRUE, OR IS IT A
CARBOHYDRATE
?
EDITOR GOOD POINT.
NOT ONLY HAVING PROTEIN WITH
BREAKFAST, BUT WITH EVERY MEAL
AND EVERY ACT.
A PIECE OF FRUIT IS HEALTHY, BUT
IF YOU JUST HAVE FOOD FOR A
SNACK, YOUR BLOOD SUGAR GOES UP
AND THEN DROPS.
BUT IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING -- HE
OWES OR HALF A SANDWICH, OR SOME
GREEK YOGURT AND BERRIES, -- IF
