Although pain is necessary to signal to the body that disease, injury, or strenuous activity is causing trouble, it does not always serve a useful function. With chronic pain, pain that occurs for more than six months, it may be signaling an ongoing problem that cannot be eliminated through treatment. In addition, this type of pain often endures a chronic pain cycle, including feelings of fear, anxiety, depression and helplessness. A great solution to getting caught up in the chronic pain cycle is through pain management. Read More…Cooking Basics-Healthy FatsWatch VideoHow to Choose Healthy Fats (plus GROCERY list!)

Maybe you’ve been told to, or have read an article, about keeping a food journal.

But…we still have to wonder why we seem to maintain the extra weight, or do not have as much energy as we’d like to have. Why is that? Could it have anything to do with what we are eating, when we are eating, and how much we are eating? Read More…Who is FitKim? Watch VideoThe Rockets Cheerleaders: Skinny Fat or Fit?

Not all sugar-free desserts are diabetic and vice versa. A tip from Dianne for those on a low-carb diet and not counting fat: using light cream cheese rather than fat-free will yield less carbohydrates. Reduced fat products typically have fillers loaded with carbohydrates.

Thanks! With quinoa (and also brown rice), the best thing you can do to make it taste good is to prepare it in vegetable or chicken broth. If you use plain water, it doesn’t taste very flavorful. Good luck!

Hey – Kim Coventry, you are my female guru (Scooby1964 on YouTube is the male guru in my life lol)…
I’d love to “follow” you on Facebook but see no “like” button much less any way to friend you to “follow” you at all… Didn’t know if there was a trick to it, or that you just shut off that capability on your profile.
Love the healthy tuna salad, green smoothies, & just made some of those healthy oatmeal muffins for my breakfast each morning (and some for the hubby too, I guess lol). Have been doing a few of the variations of planks when I get to that in my work out – wow! I love it. My only thing is starting out with burpees for the cardio portion – ugghh I hate burpees, but I do it since it’s so cold outside & can’t jumprope. Will maybe try your “mimming jump rope/in place” lol
You’re awesome! Keep up the good work & keep the vids a-comin’!=) Blessings to you!

I looked into it and there are no known side effects-just recommended to avoid if pregnant or nursing. It looks pretty fantastic!

-
Most of the green vegetables are imported into the tropical island of Saipan, but chard and kale are not one of them; could I substitude these vegetables with green and red Taro Leafs?
Taro has this “crystals” that if not cooked well, could have an adverse effect.
Thanks,
David

The most important component with greens is to eat as many as you can and make sure you rotate them. Meaning, don’t fall in love with one kind and only eat that. Enjoy!

Hey Kim,
I just saw your new video on New Years Resolutions and I wanted some advice. Last Year I was working 2 jobs while persuing a degree in a Medical field, Medical Ultrasound. I finished it and now I’m certified however its been tough since last year because I was physically and mentally drained from doing so much including hitting the gym trying to lose weight and completing a medical internship as well.
I finished. Soon after I took a break; turned out to be a lot longer than I expected because I’m still on break since last february. Now I’m having trouble trying to get myself motivated to do anything including study for my medical registry.
I really want to get back into the swing of getting focused and also acheiving my goals this year.
What would you suggest to me that I do first to get myself started? And what can I do to get motivated?
Thanks,
Leroy

Hi, Leroy! Thanks for the question. I would suggest two things to keep in mind. First, your body will do whatever you train it to do, whether that be sit on a couch or hit the gym. It’s going to take at least a couple of weeks for you to get back into a regular routine, so keep that in mind and get back in there. It will also impact your motivation in other areas of your life. Second, you may want to look at some natural supplementation along with a whole foods diet to boost your overall mood and motivation. You shouldn’t feel unmotivated in major areas of your life like that, so you may want to look more into that. Hope this helps!

Hi,
I watch a lot of your videos on youtube. I cam across one of interest on the Green Coffee Bean in the video you mention one of your clients take this with Four (4 total cleanse) and has great results. Can you tell me where I can find this product?
Thanks Kim
-
Sure! It’s now just called Total Cleanse and it’s by Genesis Today. You can get it on their website or at most health food stores. Thanks!

Hello Kim! I came across your website a while ago and love it:) Knowing that you are so knowledgeable about nutrition and overall optimal health, I wanted to ask you if you have ever tried Moringa? It is a plant botanical that is an AMAZING source of nutrition. It is wonderful for weightloss as well as just overall health benefits. It is also so great for people who have pain of any kind, high-blood pressure, arthritis, depression, MS, fibromyalgia, cancer, or who just lack energy and have low immune systems. Even those who eat healthy and take care of themselves can benefit.
checkoutmoringa.org has a 10 min video to watch. It is a national geographic documentary. You will love it!-
Yes, I love Moringa! It’s know as the Miracle Tree around the world. I recommend it to clients who have cravings (which is often a signal of a key nutrient deficiency). Thanks!

-
Hi, Bre! Yes, I do recommend Genesis Today and that is also the brand I would recommend for the Green Coffee Bean you asked about. I recommend 3 capsules per day of the green coffee bean and 4 of the garcinia. There haven’t been any reported side effects for birth control shots, but you would have to consult with your doctor. Thanks!

Hi I was wondering if twinlab mega citrimax is a good form of garcinia ?
-
They have added fillers and binders, and I never recommend brands that do that. Also, they do not tell the % of HCA, and you’re looking for 60%. Thanks!

Hi Kim can you take Raspberry Ketone and Garcinia Cambogia together? Thanks for your help.
-
Hey! I know this is kind of off-topic however I had to ask. Does operating a well-established blog like yours take a large amount of work? I am completely new to writing a blog however I do write in my journal on a daily basis. I’d like to start a blog so I can easily share my experience and views online. Please let me know if you have any kind of recommendations or tips for new aspiring blog owners. Thankyou!|
-
Hi, there! Yes, to get it started it took me a lot of time, but that’s because I did everything myself. But sites like Blogger and Tumblr are really easy to get started with. I actually started writing through journaling so yes, you can definitely run with it. Good luck and email me at Kim@FitKim.com if you need anything along the way!

Hi Kim!
This may be a dumb question but can you tell me if Genesis Today supplements are made in the US?Thanks,
Lisa-
That’s not a dumb question:) Genesis Today’s ingredients are wild-harvested all around the world, wherever they naturally grow. For example, their Acai is harvested in Brazil. Hope that helps!

Dear Kim,
At the beginning of this I attended a class you taught on Superfoods at Vitamin Cottage – Green Mountain store in Lakewood. At this event, you had a much larger turnout than you had expected. Due to the large amount of people you ran out of hand out sample bags as well as power point power point print outs.
You had stated that you would leave a sample bag at the store for me over the next few weeks and would send me via e-mail the power point slides. The Green Mountain Vitamin Cottage store manager requested that I send you a message regarding the following.
Please let me know what I can do to get the above requested set of products.Thank you again! I had a good time at your very informative class!
Sincerely,
Katerina Jungels

Hello Kim,
I just watched a video with you on YouTube about the Garcinia Cambogia. I have bought that same brand you have suggested, Genesis today, and I have been taking it for about a week and half. I exercise 4 to 5 per week, including a lot of running, and I eat very clean. On the weekend I tend to have a little cheat but I keep a pretty clean diet during the week. I have not seen any weight drop, I know it has been only a week and half, but studies says that this product makes you loose your appetite and that has not happened to me so far. I take about 8 capsules per day. I am 38 years old, my weight is about 122 pounds and my height is 5’3. I would like to loose about 7 pounds, which is ideal for me but it has been so so hard to loose it. I juice a tons of vegetables every day, I don’t eat dairy, I dont know, I guess my metabolism has just really slowed down. Do you have any advice for me in regards to the Garcinia, should I increase the dose, should I just not eat at all…Lol??
Sincerely,
Patricia Ivory. -
