TLS Weight Loss Solutions Class on Wednesday

TLS Weight Loss Solution Classes

Wednesdays from 6:30pm to 8:00pm @Mrs. Sippy’s at 12862 W Bluemound Rd. Elm Grove.

 

Transitions Lifestyle System® is a complete weight management system that encompasses low-glycemic eating, maintaining optimal body composition (muscle vs. fat) and behavior modification (creating healthy life-long habits).

TLS Weight Loss Solution Classes offer support for everyone, whether you are new to the program, are well on your way to your goal weight, or if you have reached your goals with TLS and want to continue to maintain.

TLS Classes offer information and training on how to prepare low-glycemic impact meals based on a 40:30:30 ratio of daily calories obtained from carbohydrates, proteins, and favorable fats, respectively. By achieving this balance, the body is able to maintain a hormonal balance promoting stable blood sugar levels, increased energy and weight loss.

Unlike traditional diets, which restrict the intake of many types of food, the TLS System allows you to eat your favorite foods as long as they are prepared with the 40:30:30 ratio.

Classes are held each Wednesday evening from 6:30pm to 8:00pm at Mrs. Sippy’s at 12862 W Bluemound Rd. Elm Grove, WI. There is no cost to attend. Participants may choose to purchase the supplements to enhance their weight loss, but it is not required to participate.

Come learn from Debbie Pias, RN how you can make simple changes to your diet to manage diabetes, lose weight, and live a healthier lifestyle.

Please RSVP to Debbie at 262-662-9774. Bring along someone you care about and join us next Wednesday.

Leptin’s Relationship to Weight Loss & Diabetes

Leptin is a protein produced by cells.  When leptin levels are within a normal range the brain sends signals to the body to stop eating and prevents storage of extra calories as fat. 

Overweight people tend to have higher than normal levels of leptin known as leptin resistance causing the brain to become desensitized and preventing the body to stop eating beyond levels of feeling full, which may lead to obesity and diabetes.  These increased leptin levels can also make the brain believe it is in a constant state of starvation.  This process results in food cravings and weight gain and fat storage.

So consuming lower carbohydrate foods such as fruits and vegetables instead of high carbohydrate foods such as white potatoes, white bread, pasta, white rice and flour based sauces, soups and gravy’s we can reduce an overabundance of sugar that becomes stored as fat. 

As weight reduction occurs energy levels tend to increase and fatigue lessens and the next important step to weight loss can more easily be achieved, which is exercise.  

Exercise will help in the reduction of sugar levels and fat storage.  Explore different options for exercise by starting out slow and increasing at your own pace.  Parking in the farthest part of the lot when shopping to add a quick 10 minute walk to your day.  When watching your favorite TV show, take the time between programming to do a set of pushups or sit ups.  Use the stairs instead of the elevator.   

Research in Leptin is still in its infancy.  I recommend asking your doctor about testing your leptin levels and what possible supplements and therapies are available in your battle with obesity and diabetes.
