Letter From the Editor/Founder
New Year, New Approach, Same Grind! I am not one to make a whole bunch of new year resolutions. Honestly, when I attempted to do so I quite often fell short at meeting many of them. I typically set new goals and work towards accomplishing them throughout the year. However, many may exceed a 12 month calender period. My strategy is to always have a general and concise plan in action to get to where I want to be, and this requires making and changing plans when necessary. Success requires planning. Last year, Huami Magazine was fortunate to produce a community wide cookout. In collaboration with many other area businesses, we were able to feed and entertain nearly 1000 people in downtown Greensboro’s Festival Park. By all accounts, that event was successful only because of the goals that our team set forth and being committed to accomplishing it. Huami Magazine also partnered with Tamica Fuller and Kotur Kutz and produced its 2nd Annual Huami Magazine Hair Show in December. Another project that required a lot of planning and commitment from several people to reach a desired goal, not only from event coordinators and producers, but also from each contestant. Their hard work and planning was evident once the show began. We were able showcase the talent and skill sets of local stylist and barbers and award the first place winners $4000 in cash prizes. In 2013, Huami Magazine is working to out do ourselves from last year. Our most important priority is to continue to recognize individuals within our community for their achievements and accomplishments. We also will continue to work to provide local businesses with effective marketing and promotional services. I would like to personally thank each of you who continue to make Huami Magazine a relevant and viable resource in our community. I pray that God will continue to bless us all throughout this new year.

By Terry L. Watson Photo by Mykel Media
Huami Magazine will partner with other local businesses and give back to our community in a big way. On Saturday, June 15, we will host the 2nd Annual Huami Magazine Community Cookout at Festival Park in Downtown Greensboro.
This includes solo artists as well as new or accomplished individuals. Last year’s local talent was Signature Soundz, Agape Muzic, Douglas Willett and Duncan Butler. This year we hope to continue the tradition with a festive production.
Last year, we entertained and fed nearly 1000 individuals. There was food, live music, and family fun for everyone in attendance. This year we plan to do the same and the best thing about this event is that everything is free to the community. Just bring your lawn chair, your appetite and enjoy a day at the park. There will be children games, snow cones, face painting and more.
Area businesses who would like to participate as a sponsor are welcomed to join in this community event. This is a great opportunity to give back to our community and show appreciation to those who keep us in business with their support. In addition, non-profit organizations are encouraged to participate and vendor spaces are available. h

erris Fullwood has been happily washing, waxing and detailing automobiles of all types since he was at least 10 or 12 years old. He didn’t just develop a love for cars, but a passion to see a sleek and clean vehicle. There’s an old wise tale that says a clean car drives better. He can’t rightfully attest to its truthful nature but he surely knows what it requires and if a clean car really does drive better, then those serviced by K&F Enterprises surely operate at optimum performance. K&F Custom Car Detail is a successful detailing company. The company’s name includes the two partners Jason Keith (hence the “K”) and Jerris Fullwood (hence the “F”). For approximately four years the company has been serving the Greater Triad area. Born and raised in a small town near Wilmington, N.C., Fullwood would much rather let the business speak for itself. K& F believes it’s about the customers being completely satisfied. It is their desire to meet and exceed every customer’s expectation. This is what they believe makes the company stand-out from all the rest. Fullwood admits it’s no secret that there are many other companies and businesses offering the same services however, he believes that K&F has the drive, resources and know how to go the extra mile leaving inevitable lasting impression. This ultimately transforms one time customers into continual clients. “We stand out from the others. Image and appearance really make a big difference,” says Fullwood. Although his humility is refreshing, truthfully, he and his partner don’t have to “act like” they know what they are doing when in fact they are fully cognizant of everything associated with the business and do “know” what they are doing. The intuitive and shrewd businessmen are highly qualified to handle the business as well as the service aspects. The partners have learned that developing and maintaining a successful business does not have to be complicated. Sure there are many variables involved, but both agree the most important aspect to master is fulfilling customer satisfaction. Continued on page 10

or as long as she can remember, Evainna Ross has focused on helping others. It’s a trait she inherited from her parents, who set wonderful examples for her. She can remember visiting neighbors’ houses with her mother and father, often late at night to drop off groceries for people who were less fortunate. To make sure the recipients wouldn’t feel selfconscious, one of her parents would run to the porch, drop off the goodies, knock on the door and then dash back to the car-- where the other parent would be waiting to drive away. Those moments of self-sacrifice had a profound influence on her that would provide the foundation for her organization, The Chosen 50. In the early 1990s, Ross attended Saint James Baptist Church in Greensboro, N.C. where she became the youth director. Working under the leadership of her mentor, Pastor Prince E. Graves, she learned a lot about young people from all walks of life and the struggles they faced. On one occasion, she can recall meeting with youth to discuss details on a beach trip they had earned. The church had paid for the trip, but the youth would have to provide their own “snack money”, which amounted to about $3 per child. After the meeting, several youth solemnly confided in her that they would not be able to go on the coveted trip, because they didn’t have the funds. At that moment, she had learned another very valuable life lesson about the true needs of others. She made sure every child got a chance to go on that trip, and she never took for granted the needs of some children. And that’s when she begun to focus on the needs of youth outside of her church. Her first goal was to create a teen center that would provide youth in the community to receive free educational, cultural and social programs on a daily basis. She discovered an abandoned and condemned building she thought would suit the purpose perfectly. After detailing her plans with the building’s owners, for only about 30 minutes, they donated the building outright. Ross then did a lot of research about what it would cost to renovate the dilapidated structure that totaled a sum of $2 million dollars. A mountainous financial hurdle, not to mention the time it would take to supervise the project. Working a full-time job with no other resources, she decided on a different course of action. She sold the building and used the proceeds to buy a van. She had the van wrapped in an eye catching design, created by local artist, DRL Toons. Now her dreams were mobile. She and her volunteers began driving the van to public housing communities to offer the same program she had once envisioned for her building. The only difference was, instead of ballroom dancing on a hardwood floors, they did it on basketball courts. Instead of cooking in commercial kitchens, they did it in community centers. For over a year, these free programs were offered on almost every weekend, serving hundreds of area youth. The demand became too large for the organization with few volunteers, so, once again, modifications were made. And, in August of 2010, The Chosen 50 was born. The idea behind The Chosen 50 is to select 50 middle and high school youth to join a comprehensive nine month leadership and character development program. “Our goal is to see youth defined by their intelligence and their character and not by negative stereotypes associated with their neighborhoods,” says Evainna. She and her organization began helping youth balance the messages they encountered on a daily basis. “Everyday they would see and hear messages from recording artists, actors/actresses who promoted “hood life” is an acceptable existence or that it’s okay to smoke weed, drink, demean the opposite sex and have no respect for authority,” says Ross. “We understand we can’t eliminate these messages, but it’s our goal to turn the volume down on the negative ones and counteract them with positive alternatives and scenery.” Ross and her volunteers work with these students two to three Saturdays each month. Some of the programs offered by The Chosen 50 include: creating and nurturing small businesses, running for public office and managing a political campaign, and understanding an investment portfolio. She wants to help these youth be able to negotiate life’s very real challenges by utilizing real world solutions. Ross is committed to her vision that was born years ago and still filled with energy and promise for the years ahead. “I believe all youth should have the opportunity to be successful and not limited by their financial resources. I don’t want to be someone who merely talks about the plight of our youth, but I want to be a solution, even if it’s 50 at a time,” she says. h

Coach
Brian Seagraves
By Terry L. Watson Photo by CharlesMedia Photography
T
here is a new, yet familiar face on the sidelines at James B. Dudley High School this year. Panther alumnus, former assistant coach and former basketball player, Brian Seagraves takes the helm and with great expectations.
Seagraves coached at the “Great” James B. Dudley High School for 14 years and during his tenure there, he progressed from being an assistant coach to the number one assistant coach position. He received his first head coaching job at Andrews High School in High Point, N.C. While at Andrews, he completed a 20-7 season. In that same year when Coach David Price decided to retire from Dudley, Seagraves says he seized the opportunity to return home. “I applied for the position and fortunately was hired and it feels good to be back at home.” Seagraves played basketball at Dudley High School for former Coach Steve Hankins. Under Hankins tutelage he was ranked as one of the top players in the state of North Carolina. While in high school, he amassed several awards including State Player of the Year, All Guilford Player of the Year and was selected to the All-State Team. He also played in the East/West All Star game. After leaving Dudley, he played basketball while attending North Carolina A&T State University. While at A&T, he was awarded the Rookie of the Week title two times and was selected to be on the All-Rookie Team. Seagraves says he decided to coach because of Coach Price. Regarded as someone he respects and looked up to, Coach Price also persuaded him to pursue a career in education. “He convinced me to get my certification in physical education and to become an instructor. He also convinced me to apply for the head coaching position at Dudley High School,” says Seagraves. He applied and was offered the job, and he accepted to come back to his roots and make a difference just as his mentor, Coach Price did in his life. Seagraves is regarded as someone who is passionate about the game of basketball. He believes that hard work and dedication makes you a better coach. He says that he is a family man that loves his wife and children. He has a passion for young people and believes it is important to be instrumental in changing their lives. What he loves most about coaching is that I make a difference in the lives of young people, specifically young men. “Coaches are instrumental in shaping and forming character, as well as work ethics in young men. We are able to use the skills acquired in sports such as hard work, dedication, fortitude, teamwork, and sportsmanship and apply it to real life situations. Not only do coaches teach players how to play the game. We teach them to be successful in life,” he says. Seagraves says he would like to be known as someone who genuinely cares for children and the community. He also aspires to coach on the collegiate level one day. Seagraves says he is inspired by his wife Samantha, his mother Patricia Seagraves, and Coach David Price, all of

t wasn’t unheard of for Richard Johnson to spend days and nights on end binging in drug houses and drinking himself into a stupor. His prevalence to overdose was commonplace and expected. From the time he was born, his life had been nothing but turbulence, turmoil and temptation. Nevertheless, from the outside looking in, the vast majority of the time, everything appeared to be copasetic. Richard Johnson is the pastor of an outstanding church, We Are One Christian Fellowship located in Greensboro, N.C. He is the overseer of other churches as well as the founder of other faith-based ministries. However, the Mississippi native has traveled a long road to redemption and even further to complete healing. He was raised during the Jim Crow era and is no stranger to hard living and hard work. He vividly remembers the outhouse, the slop bucket hanging on the line and the scrub board. It was a way of life for him as well as all other blacks who lived during that time period. Drugs, alcohol, prostitution and violence were also a way of life for Johnson and his family. He dealt with dysfunction from both sides of his family. His mother was disowned by her wealthy family and his father’s family was mired in death and witchcraft. Ironically, he was afforded the opportunity to attend a private catholic school during his early educational years until his family relocated to Hartford, Conn. It was the beginning of dealing with a life of extremes, for him which he would never begin to deal with or confront until many, many years later. The dysfunction within his family was so deeply embedded it didn’t even appear to be dysfunction, rather just a way of life. “I grew up in a violent, bloody home in Mississippi,” says Johnson. “I learned to numb the pain with heroin and cocaine. Unfortunately, my family and I turned to narcotics and prostitution; that’s how we lived.” Things became so bad that Johnson’s mother sent him to Piney Woods Country Life School, a boarding school in Mississippi. It is one of the oldest boarding schools for African Americans in the country. The discipline the school imposed and the hard work required was good for him. He was forced to slow down and toe the line. Days were spent alternating class and attending to the farm animals. After graduating from Piney Woods, he attended Alcorn State University (formerly Alcorn A&M University). He elected not to remain there; instead he chose to move to New Jersey where he could find work at his uncle’s McDonald’s franchise. Johnson appeared to have it all together. He was working, he had money and he dressed well. He never bummed off anyone; not even for a cigarette. However, it was all a facade, a part that he played and played very well. It was the life he lived. “No matter what city I moved to people would act like they knew me. I lived a life of duality—I was nice and nasty,” he says. “I was nice and professional in the business environment, and I was successful. I’ve never been broke. I’ve never looked bad but I was an addict.” Not only was he an addict but he was in denial. After living in several different areas from Newark, N.J. to Brooklyn, N.Y., Johnson moved to North Carolina and began running one of his uncles McDonald’s restaurants on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It was one of many times that he relocated but it was the one that proved to be the catalyst for complete change and reformation within his life. Johnson recalls the day his life changed forever. He remembers coming home on a Sunday morning from a four day binge at a drug house, so high and drunk and depressed that he doesn’t even recall being lucid. He just remembers meandering from one room to the next and on his way to the bathroom his girlfriend, who would soon become his wife, stops him and says we are going to church today. After a few
“We teach people to polish their act. On the inside they are bruised from bad marriages, bad parenting, and bad choices. We are not dealing with the issues of the heart. People are getting tired of it.”

minutes of refusal, he soon relented when he realized she wasn’t going to back down. What followed was nothing short of a miracle. They attended a college ministry service located in the student union on the UNC campus. Johnson says it’s important to note that he didn’t want to be there. He reeked of gin, and continued to still drink on the way to the service. He was also still high from all the cocaine and other drugs still pulsating through his veins. Even sitting through the service he remembers hanging his head, not because of an overwhelming sense of guilt and conviction but out of disdain. He even says he was sizing up the women. As the service continued the preacher began to read a scripture. St. John 3: 1-3. In an instant he couldn’t believe what was happening. It was the same scripture his blind aunt had made him learn back in 1958. As the minister read, he was able to recite. He found himself walking down the aisle with many other young people. He couldn’t believe what he was doing or why he was doing it. Even while committing himself to God he wasn’t thinking spiritual. It wasn’t the typical conversion experience. Mentally he was even questioning himself. “What are you doing?” He told himself he wasn’t going to let this “preacher-man” do a bunch of stuff to him. He began to brace himself and recite what he would tell him and what he wasn’t going to do. On October 19, 1996 not only did he receive Christ into his heart, but he was instantly detoxed of the alcohol and narcotics. He says he didn’t really know what he was doing but he did it anyway. “If anyone had ever asked me if I thought God could deliver me from drugs, narcotics and alcohol I would have said no.” Nothing but sickness kept Johnson from missing a day of church from that point forward. The ministry eventually moved off campus and began planting churches elsewhere and Johnson became the pastor of a church planted in Greensboro. After dealing with many often overlooked and under evaluated issues and even scandal within the organization he began to realize that the church as a whole was not dealing with the root issues that many people face; issues that prevent true healing. There were issues that he struggled with himself, even though he was a leader. “We teach people to polish their act. On the inside they are bruised from bad marriages, bad parenting, and bad choices. We are not dealing with the issues of the heart. People are getting tired of it,” he says. “We are sensationalizing an inundating people with church services, but when you go home your marriage isn’t any better. Your ability to process pain and unhealthy thinking patterns, and unhealed emotions has not been helped. How do we begin healing?”
There is also a onsite childcare facility “Tot Spot 2”. For more information please contact Rickisha Moody at (336)375-3444
Johnson believes he has been given a mandate to help lead people to their place of healing and reconciliation through Jesus Christ by establishing Real Love Ministries. It is a faith-based organization that seeks to look at the implications of an individual’s background and what happened to them in the past and how it effects their present day situation. He realized he needed this help for himself. He became very transparent with his own church and told them he needed healing. He realized that he went from escaping into drugs to escaping into church work. He even suggested that all church organization leaders take at least a year and deal with these issues in order to make themselves better individuals and thereby become better husbands, wives, friends and soldiers for God. “My family is full of drug addicts, convicts, prostitutes and unsuccessful marriages. I am the curse breaker for my family. I will teach people how to identify these generational patterns,” says Johnson. I will do a genogram chart with them and identify the drugs, abortions, rape, murder, divorces, substance abuse, conflict and violence. We are going to identify all of these relational patterns that keep repeating themselves in our families and then, if people want to be, I will help empower them to be the person that says, it may have happened in my family; it may have happened to me, but from here on out I’m making sure that this thing will not continue to perpetuate my family tree.” “That’s what I’m going to do for the rest of my life.” h

Superior Janitorial Service January/February 2013

uperior Janitorial Service has become one of the most respected and experienced cleaning companies in the Triad area. The company has gained a statewide reputation for offering exceptional services and being passionate about educating consumers and the industry on best practices.
Owner and operator, Walter Stinson, Jr. has spent the better part of 15 years building Superior Janitorial Services—a highly successful cleaning company. To date, the company services 28 commercial accounts and over 390 residential clients. Superior comes highly recommended by prominent citizens, local realtors, and many Triad area property management companies as well as various other businesses. By 1998, Stinson had his fill of working 40-50 hours a week for someone else. From delivery driver to retail clerk to bank teller, even franchise owner, he pretty much did it all, including a four year term serving in the United States Army, in which he was honorably discharged. He learned a great deal working in so many different environments. One of the most important things he learned was how to please the customer and to get every job done and done right. Consequently, that same year, he decided he needed to explore working for himself. After much trial, error and contemplation, he decided to open his own cleaning service— SUPERIOR Janitorial Service. Currently, SUPERIOR is one of the Triad’s top commercial cleaning providers. The company prides itself on its exceptional attention to customer service and “superior” customer satisfaction. Stinson says he wants his clients to be proud of their decision to choose his company for ALL their janitorial needs. As a matter of fact, the company maintains a strict 100 percent money back guarantee if a client is dissatisfied with the work of Superior Janitorial Services. “We don’t want to have anyone in our community who is displeased with the services we provide,” Stinson says. “If that happens to you, we will rush back to your location to remedy the situation. If you are still unimpressed, you owe us nothing and we will give you a complete refund.” In addition, customers are provided a free estimate and walkthrough analysis, so they are completely well-informed from the very beginning.
Above: Book authored by Walter Stinson, Jr “How To Avoid Nightmare Carpet Cleaners” provides insight on his approach to providing “The Most Outstanding Service Experience Ever”
Not only is it difficult to find a dissatisfied or disgruntled client, it’s just as difficult to find a service that Superior Janitorial does not offer or is able to handle. The company cleans virtually everything from small office spaces to large corporate buildings; no job is too big or too small. Boasting a “superior” staff of 14, three mobile units, top-of-the-line commercial-grade equipment and products, an informative website and mobile communications, and strategically situated throughout North Carolina, Superior is ready, willing and able to serve. The company offers window cleaning, wall washing, stripping and waxing, vacuuming, mopping, dusting, restroom sanitation and much more. Additionally, Superior specializes in carpet and hardwood floor cleaning. He believes his ability to offer that additional service is what sets his company apart from and above all other local cleaning services. He says it’s not very common for janitorial businesses to offer full service carpet and floor cleaning. “People don’t usually include carpet cleaning with janitorial,” he says. Not only does the company offer the service, but it has become a specialty. He has emerged as a leader in the industry. His company is referred by Greensboro’s most prominent citizens and businesses. Local flooring retailer, Patterson Carpets, Inc. refers Superior exclusively, for all carpet and floor cleaning needs. Moreover, Stinson has become a leader and consultant in the carpet cleaning industry. He has even written a book chronicling the sometimes scary and often difficult process of averting carpet cleaning scams and carpet maintenance. The book is appropriately titled, How to Avoid Nightmare Carpet Cleaners. It offers great insider tips on hiring a qualified carpet cleaner as well as an in depth explanation of the systems used and a highly informative resource guide on how to choose flooring. It endeavors to answer the questions of people unfamiliar with the business
22
and teaches them to ask the right questions when hiring a potential cleaning service. Customers are advised to ask the following questions: · · · · ·
What kind of reputation do you have? How many years of experience do you have? What kind of system(s) do you use? What kind of guarantee do you offer? How can I best care for my own carpet?
Although, Stinson and Superior Janitorial has seen tremendous growth and experienced professional highs, there were also years of stagnation and lows. He initially began his business as a franchise owner, but after devastating financial losses he reasoned that he could handle a similar business on his own without having to deal with the issues that accompanied running a business that was not technically 100 percent his own. Even after he launched Superior Janitorial, he still had to produce big results with small resources. He took it one step at a time, cleaning smaller businesses and working his way to larger, more lucrative accounts all the while reinvesting in himself and slowly gathering a return.
“We don’t want to have anyone in our community who isn’t completely thrilled with the service experience we provide.” “I started cleaning for businesses such as small finance companies, local N.C. DMV offices and event centers. I also found myself doing a few residential carpet cleaning jobs for family, friends, neighbors and referrals in the Triad with a huge, heavy, low-speed buffer and a Hoover Steam Cleaner,” says Stinson. “I remember my oldest brother would help out occasionally in the evenings but would always laugh at me saying, man, you should have came up with a better idea, bro.” He says his father would tell him he needed to find a job. His mother helped out right from the start. His wife LaTonya assisted in numerous ways, including office tasks and field projects. Nevertheless, he pressed forward and continued to do what he had to do for his business. It wasn’t easy getting a janitorial business off the ground, especially with just a four-door Cavalier and a pick-up truck as the company vehicles, but he made it work and soon doors began to open. He was able to purchase better equipment and a vehicle that could sustain the work load and he was even able to hire additional staff. As the business grew in size he began to see growth in customer retention and referral. Stinson is now reaping the rewards of hard work and perseverance. Superior Janitorial Service is known and respected in the community and throughout the state as an industry leader. Since 2005, The accredited company has maintained an A+ Rating with the (BBB) Better Business Bureau and receives the most inquiries of any other comparable triad janitorial businesses on the BBB website. In addition, Stinson has been elected to serve on the Board of Directors with the BBB. Stinson doesn’t take his blessings for granted. He is quite aware of how far his company has come and has been humbled from the experience. His failures and successes fuel him to do more and reach higher. h

hiloh Holiness Church of God in Christ is a place where the love of God dwells. Founded by Pastor Robert Taylor and First Lady Shirley Taylor in 1981, their message has always been a relevant one. As pastor, Taylor says he has been able to preach the gospel and impact so many lives because God first saved him. Pastor Taylor and his wife celebrate 40 years of marriage that has produced seven children, 17 grandchildren and 11 greatgrandchildren. Their love for each other and God has allowed them to impact so many lives as leaders of Shiloh. It would be a lot easier for them to just talk the talk, but as godly examples, they have devoted their lives to exemplify the goodness of God. A native of Reidsville, N.C., Pastor Taylor says he decided to minister after receiving the call from God by the unction of the Holy Spirit. He admits that he once lived a shady lifestyle. “I know from firsthand experience that God can take you from a pig pin and lead you to His palace,” says Pastor Taylor. As a minister he hoped to make a difference in the world and believed that God seeks those who truly love Him. “God has always been my sustainer. He has always loved me unconditionally, and I could never measure my love for Him,” he says. Pastor Taylor is truly a man of GOD that has faced challenges of convincing people of their worth and their value. He preaches a message of which God says who they are, where they can go, and what they can obtain in life. “I am a pastor with a simple gospel message for people who are living in such a time as this. When sin is a common and expected way of life,” says Pastor Taylor. “Being saved gives us a right to everything because we are heirs of God, and joint heirs with Christ. Jesus was obedient to God and if we are obedient to Him, there are no limitations for us. Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils. We must understand, deny ungodliness and worldly lust. We should live sober, righteous and godly in this world.”
“I am a pastor with a simple gospel message for people living is such a time as this. When sin is a common and expected way of life.”
The ministry of Pastor Taylor has been impacted by so many people. Most importantly, he credits his wife, First Lady Taylor, a native of Florence, S.C. with having the greatest influence on his life. She has

She wears many hats but none more important than that of being a rock for her husband and family. “She believed in me and without her I couldn’t do the things I have thus far,” says Pastor Taylor. Pastor Taylor also acknowledges the influence that other laborers of God have had on his life—Bishop Levi Willis and Bishop Gilbert Patterson. “These guys have showed real leadership in the church and business world,” he says. Pastor Taylor says he also finds inspiration in his children and grandchildren. “As I see them working in our ministry, it confirms that our work has not been in vain and that it will continue,” he says. Moving forward, he hopes to impact the lives of men. He is looking to
“ I praise and thank the Lord for allowing me to be the wife of a great leader, teacher and visionary.” First Lady Taylor work with anyone with a plan to build up men. He also plans to continue to work for God’s kingdom and help bring God’s kingdom to earth. He also wants to develop an outreach ministry that would equip people to be all they can, in and outside of church. He hopes to build a family life center for everyone in need.

Living Healthy A few tips for losing weight in 2013 much less energy. Through putting on muscle in a natural and slow manner, you’ll look better physically, but you’ll be able to notice that you’re losing weight in the process too. We’re not saying to hit the gym and start pumping weights everyday, but simple muscle strength building exercises such as squats and press ups will help to develop your muscle strength and contribute to a healthier lifestyle – which in turn will help you to lose weight. You could also consider working alongside a professional trainer who is proficient in losing weight too.
Part of your weight loss campaign should involve some form of muscle strength building. While building raw muscle and having bulging biceps might put you off, there are certain techniques you can use to build strength, as opposed to muscle mass. As we discussed in the previous point, less muscle means that your ability to process foods quickly is reduced. The more muscle you have, the quicker your metabolism. This is probably one of our key points for losing weight in 2013. In order for your muscle to maintain itself, it’s strength and it’s mass, it needs some energy. Fat requires
It’s actually quite shocking how many people avoid eating their breakfast in the morning. More often than not, this is typically due to people waking up too late and not having the time to spend 5 or 10 minutes eating a small, but healthy and nutritious breakfast. Breakfast is supposed to give your body a boost in the morning to help you gain gradual amounts of energy throughout the day. The process of eating a healthy breakfast will keep your blood sugar levels at an even amount. When you skip breakfast, your body starts to panic. Basically, your body believes that it’s going to starve and starts producing and releases stress hormones, such as adrenaline and glucagon. These
hormones then start to break down muscle and converts the burnt muscle into energy. If this is a regular occurrence you’ll soon begin to notice that you’re putting on weight. This is because more muscle helps to speed up your metabolic rate, as less muscle slows down your metabolic rate. The most healthy options for a balanced and nutritious breakfast include the traditional English breakfast, packed with juicy meats such as bacon and eggs, or cereals that contain porridge. Eating fatty foods, sweets and chocolate while watching television or a DVD is one of the worst mistakes you could ever make. Firstly, you’ll be in a standstill position and won’t be moving or burning energy. Your body won’t be able to digest and process the food properly, because you’re sitting down (which is an unnatural position). Additionally, your mouth will probably become appeased by the taste of the delicious chocolate melting in your mouth – which further leads to more comfort eating. As a quick shock tip, it’s believed that you lose more weight during your sleep, than you do h while awake watching television.
