Why Beans Make a Big Difference in Weight Loss
Beans may be known mostly for their unpleasant odiferous side effect when eaten, but beans are actually nutritious little gems. If you follow these tips, you can eat beans without the bloat, which means you can reap these weight-loss benefits. Here are three reasons to plate-up with beans.
Hello, Fiber!
While the fiber content of beans helps keep things moving, it also gives you that "I'm full" feeling. Satiating your hunger is the key to preventing overeating and consuming too many calories for the day. But you don't just need to eat a plate of plain beans; in fact, you can add beans to smoothies - you won't be able to taste them at all. Or throw them in your scrambled eggs, add them to soups, pasta dishes, or as a topping on homemade pizza.
Protein Punch
Beans aren't just for vegetarians. Omnivores can soak up bean protein as well. High-protein beans help keep energy and blood-sugar levels stable, which helps prevent cravings for sugary pick-me-ups that tend to be high in calories and void of nutrition. Since a couple hours between meals tends to be common crash times, including beans for breakfast and lunch will keep you peppy until your next meal. Whip up a sweet potato, chickpea, and quinoa veggie burger, a plate of polenta with beans, or a satisfying bowl of slow cooker chickpea coconut curry.
Smart Snacking
When trying to beat the scale, you need to make sure that you're eating quality foods low in calories and high in nutrition. Beans make perfect snacks too, so look beyond the typical carrot sticks and hummus pick-me-up and try pairing your fruit with this chocolate hummus. You can snack on honey-roasted cinnamon chickpeas, veggies with creamy white-bean dip, or these delicious edamame pear crostinis. You can also enjoy a low-cal dessert with fortified with beans, like these peanut butter oatmeal raisin cookies or black bean brownies.

This Sweet Superfood Will Make You Happier
Raw cacao is the purest form of chocolate you can consume, which means it's much less processed and significantly higher in antioxidants than plain old cocoa powder or store-bought chocolate bars. Studies have shown that it may reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease and reduce your blood pressure, but there's another reason to enjoy it ASAP: it can improve your mood big time.
In one study, participants were given a dark-chocolate drink to consume for 30 days, which contained 500 milligrams, 250 milligrams, or 0 milligrams of polyphenols (the chemicals in plants that have antioxidant properties). The findings? The participants who received the highest dose of cocoa experienced a significantly higher rate of calmness and happiness than those who drank the placebo. If you could use a little extra happy in your day, raw cacao is an ingredient to try.
Culinary director of Sonima Wellness Center Joy Houston is a huge fan of raw cacao powder in her smoothies, since it gives her blends a flavor that's reminiscent of a classic chocolate malt without all the processed junk. Try singer Ellie Goulding's go-to coconut-water smoothie that's sweet, hydrating, and tosses cacao nibs into the mix.

Lea Michele Isn't Taking Things Easy After Wrapping Glee - She's Busy Staying Fit!
To cope with their devastation over Glee's impending series finale, many fans are staying in bed to binge-watch the musical show - but their beloved star Lea Michele certainly isn't joining them! After wrapping six years of hard production work, the singer has kept herself busy by hiking steep mountain trails. "How I celebrate a job well done!" Michele captioned an Instagram photo of herself during one of the hikes, later adding another snap with the blurb: "Stay in bed and rest after wrapping Glee? No thanks . . . I'd rather climb a mountain!"
It might be easy to justify a few lazy days after half a decade of grueling work hours, so we love that Lea Michele isn't letting a change of pace dampen her fitness motivation. What an inspiration! Take a look at her hiking snaps below, and you might be motivated to channel your Glee-induced sadness into exercise.

Kettlebell fans love the heavy, round-shaped weights for a reason - kettlebell exercises combine cardio and strength training for a time-saving calorie burn. The amount of calories you can burn using kettlebells can be amazingly high: a study by the American Council on Exercise found that the average person burns 400 calories in 20 minutes when doing kettlebell exercises. More research has found that regularly exercising with kettlebells significantly reduces back, neck, and shoulder pain by strengthening core and upper body muscles.

When you’re following the right people, you not only have motivation served to you on a minute-by-minute basis, but you also have access to virtual trainers, ones that deliver their expertise directly to your phone. Maybe you’ll be inspired to try a new exercise or learn how to step-up your cardio game. Or maybe you’ll find your next pair of must-have sneakers. And while there are plenty of popular trainers to follow, here are some of the lesser-known accounts that also deserve an add.
