The reason conventional weight loss programs fail to help you lose weight, keep it off, decrease body fat and more:

ON my first video, I talked about how many of you are again resolving to lose weight and decrease body fat and see WHAT on earth you can do about cellulite. You might want to do this for bathing suit season, a class reunion or just “because”. You may have or usually likely have been frustrated by your inability to lose unwanted pounds in the past….or gaining back what you have lost.

Organized “big company”diet plans are designed for failure as you just saw me talk about. If you follow my weight loss program, you can eat all the healthy food you want without the added dangerous chemicals, (and that doesn’t mean celery and carrot sticks…), I am talking real, healthy food here. If you eat processed, inflammatory foods you will hamper weight loss and if you DO lose it, the pounds will come right back! BUT if you eat as I am going to tell you HOW to eat you will not only lose weight, you will become healthy too!

What should you eat?

It is more about how to eat than how much to eat. Aim for 30% protein / 30% fat / 40% carb (which is the ZONE diet). Eat “organic” as much as possible and avoid GMO’s (Genetically Modified foods). A Mediterranean diet plan is fine also. I’m not crazy about Paleo as it has too many inflammatory omega 6 products.

Your “plate” should be 2/3 veggies and complex carbs, 1/3 lean protein.
• Foods to avoid: sugar, fruit juice, refined carbohydrates (white bread, white rice, pasta), “Low fat” labeled foods, high starch vegetables, white potatoes (white on inside), corn, and processed meats (bacon, hot dogs, etc) as well as all processed foods. No soda! No diet soda either! (Diet soda stimulates appetite and promotes weight gain!)

What is different about MY weight loss program? Plenty!

Here’s the ENORMOUS benefit to losing weight with MY program. The way I do it is individualized to each person. Here is the “not so secret secret” that no one tells you about. 95% of people with weight issues eat when they are not hungry. Think about it-do you eat when stressed, anxious, tired, have cravings, feel irritable, just don’t know why or THINK you are hungry all of the time? There is a reason! (YOU WILL LOVE THIS-please watch-it will likely change your life!)
Additionally, another super fun benefit is that your skin will glow and tighten making you look younger. And to reward yourself here is the #1 AnteAgeMD® skin care system at a great price! It is the perfect skin care system according to Anti-aging doctors.

Now let hone in on body fat and also belly fat a bit: (and go to my blog for more specific articles at www.drkimsagewellsolutions.com
Diet: Crucial that it is anti-inflammatory!
Exercise: Cardio and weight training when sleep and energy are OK-see below
Stress:If you are under so much stress that it is giving you body fat, you are making too much cortisol which is going to eventually also cause fatigue, sleep issues (more on this) and immune system depression which leads to many things-first, more infections like colds. And this is culprit #1 for belly fat!
So this needs to be reduced and again, there is much more info on the blog and on the website you can get a free “mood series”.
Sleep:
If you are at the stage where the energy is low and cortisol is high and when asked about energy levels you are below a 5-6 on a 10 point scale, you WILL be having sleep issues. This will cause not just body fat but specifically belly fat so energy and sleep and stress need to be controlled. I WILL help you with all of this every step of the way.
Your GI tract:
Without a GI tract with no digestive problems occurring and/or without proper pre and then probiotics you will not lose weight or belly fat effectively.

Last note for men and some women regarding estrogenic hormones:

In men,the enzyme aromatase converts testosterone to estradiol, a form of estrogen. Usually levels are not increased unless the man is on testosterone supplementation without an “aromatase inhibitor”. However as men age, livers don’t tend to process estradiol quite as well and these levels can go up. All it takes is a simple measurement and treatment.
In some women, there are high estrogen levels. These go down as body fat goes down.
Now a bit about what everyone wants to know about!

What about Cellulite?This is not just body fat but “trapped” fat in-between fibrous bands:

Topical creams:
I KNOW there are many out there but the only studies to show reduction of the appearance are: caffeine creams and aminophylline creams. Retinol stimulates collagen so using it or anything else which stimulates collagen will help build more tissues around the dimpled skin to further reduce the appearance. Yes you can mix caffeine and aminophylline creams together.
Collagen stimulation:
Yes, brushing/exfoliating any area does indeed stimulate collagen production and can help. It also slightly helps with cream penetration so brush first if you are using topical creams. Theoretically (not studied I’m saying theoretically) any laser treatment like IPL or other collagen stimulating laser SHOULD help but there are not any “out there”. I don’t know why not-someone could make a boatload, right??
Actual surgical “stuff”:
OK there is one that does seem to work.
Cellulaze is a side-firing laser that’s inserted under the skin using a few tiny cuts. A surgeon uses the laser to sizzle away the septae bands that are pulling down on the skin. The laser also cooks pockets of fat, reducing bulges. The company that makes the laser says it also helps thin, sagging skin. I’m not so sure about this.
Final thoughts: and here is the link to get a free consult from me:HERE!
Being tan makes it less obvious but getting tan breaks down collagen, gives you wrinkles and skin cancer so a non toxic spray tan is also decent camouflage. Massage doesn’t work. Endermologie does NOT work,do NOT waste your money…..it is NOT one of the anti aging products or services I recommend AT ALL.
I am here to help you with anything and everything, not just getting older without diseases. Do you love me yet??? 😉

“My promise to you”:

1)  I will assess and figure out what’s wrong
2)  I will recommend what’s best for you
3)  I will follow-up to make sure you are doing better

Aging is not fun, unless you age well… Welcome!

Dr. Kim Crawford is an Internist who long ago decided she preferred to prevent diseases rather than treat them with pharmaceuticals. She, or “Dr. Kim” as her patients all call her has re-focused her career to become one of the top Anti-aging doctors in the world, treating the rich and famous as well as people from all walks of life in her private practice. She decided to repeat her focus on disease prevention, treatment of things “ordinary doctors” can’t or don’t know how to treat, as well as “tuning up” the things that “happen with age” which CAN be fixed despite what you are told through her total anti-aging program www.drkimsagewellsolutions.com .

 
So if your doctor has told you there are things that “just happen with age so accept them” (loss of energy, disturbed sleep, mood degeneration, weight gain, mood issues, GI tract problems, immune system degeneration, memory loss and so much MORE!), just know that she makes it her life mission to have patients as well as all AgeWellSolutions members look and feel younger, more vibrant, physically well,get healthy and stay that way.

 
She realized that she couldn’t accept more private patients due to time constraints but wanted her members to HAVE a real medical experience with her where she hopes to exceed the expectations and experiences people receive with their own “real life” doctors.
She does this with questionnaires, quick webinar-info videos which are based on all of the topics she covers with her patients, informational handouts, as well as conference calls and her unique Q &A system where members can get their questions answered anytime from Dr.Kim and ONLY Dr.Kim herself.
