Throughout my life, I have tried to share my philosophy that getting and staying healthy doesn’t have to feel like work. I don’t diet or slave away in a gym – what I do is make excellent food choices. – Suzanne Somers
You know, as long as you do everything in moderation, you don’t go overboard, you don’t, you know, turn your lips into guppy lips – I mean, a little zip or a little zap, that is not a big deal. – Suzanne Somers
It’s important to know the jam-packed power of certain foods that will not only protect you from a myriad of health issues, but also will help you with hormone balance. Ideally, your food choices should be organic and pesticide free. – Suzanne Somers
I have my hormones balanced. Most doctors are giving women synthetic hormones, which just eliminate the symptoms, but it’s doing nothing to actually replace the hormones you have lost. Without our hormones we die. – Suzanne Somers
Sleep has been provided by nature to do the body’s healing work, and it takes seven or eight hours for this process to happen. Commit to getting at least seven to eight hours of good quality sleep every night to keep your body and hormones in balance. – Suzanne Somers
I stopped dieting on plain, boring, unsatisfying food and started eating rich, delicious meals full of flavor and, yes… fat. I got skinny on fat and realized I would never have to diet again. – Suzanne Somers
There is a general knowledge that I am multi-dimensional, that when you are creative you do a lot of things. – Suzanne Somers
When you choose high-quality delicious foods, your body will reward you with a trim figure and a longer, healthier life. After all, what you put in your body is the best recipe for staying sexy forever. – Suzanne Somers
All those spices and herbs in your spice rack can do more than provide calorie-free, natural flavorings to enhance and make food delicious. They’re also an incredible source of antioxidants and help rev up your metabolism and improve your health at the same time. – Suzanne Somers
Focus on eating real, whole, natural foods. As I love to say, if you can pick it, pluck it, milk it, or shoot it, you can eat it! – Suzanne Somers
Then there are the people who know me from the lectures. What I am really trying to do, what I need to accomplish at this time, is to fill in the gaps. – Suzanne Somers
Your liver is your vital detoxification organ, and if it becomes overloaded with toxins from the food, drink, or medications you’re consuming, you’ll have more toxins circulating throughout your body, damaging your organs and glands. Detoxing your liver will help it work more efficiently – and help you slim your waistline. – Suzanne Somers
To successfully lose weight after 40, you need to understand that imbalanced hormones and chemicals have a huge impact on your health. It is possible, however, to live a clean, healthy, and long life – with a slim body, even after 40! – Suzanne Somers
Reduce the stress levels in your life through relaxation techniques like meditation, deep breathing, and exercise. You’ll look and feel way better for it. – Suzanne Somers
It’s always good to leave a little space between eating and lying down in bed at the end of the day. The best thing to eat at night in general is protein, fat, and vegetables. For instance, if you’re in an Italian restaurant, have chicken piccata with lemon-butter sauce, lots of vegetables, and a big salad. You’ll sleep like a baby. – Suzanne Somers
Browsing our local farmer’s market is one of my family’s favorite weekend activities. Make it a relaxing, healthful habit for your family, and you’ll reap the nutritional rewards. – Suzanne Somers
When the brain perceives you are no longer reproductive because your hormones are out of balance, it tries to get rid of you, and it usually activates the cancers in perimenopause. – Suzanne Somers
I understood something way back when I was on ‘Three’s Company.’ When I got the part, I was flat broke. I was so happy to get the part, but I kept thinking, ‘Ugh – dumb blondes are so irritating; how do I make her likable?’ I think that I achieved that. It took a while for people to realize I was acting. – Suzanne Somers
You should drink at least eight glasses of water a day in order to stay regular, lose weight, and detoxify. Our bodies are mostly made of water, and yet we lose two to three quarts of it every day through perspiration and other bodily functions. – Suzanne Somers
When you receive a cancer diagnosis, you’re more vulnerable than at any other time in your life. I’ve personally had the experience twice. My only hope for survival was alternatives. But that was my decision, what I thought was best for me. – Suzanne Somers
Retirees who are on Medicare will suffer the consequences of 700 billions of Medicare dollars instead being used to cover the skyrocketing cost of Obamacare. In essence, less dollars for seniors means less service. Not fair. The Boomers are going to take the ‘hit.’ In Obamacare, ‘too old’ has limitations of service. – Suzanne Somers
Our bodies are finely tuned machines, and if our hormone mixtures aren’t ‘just right’, everything goes into disrepair. – Suzanne Somers
I have always loved food. I began cooking for my family as a young girl, and to this day, it’s one of my greatest pleasures in life. – Suzanne Somers
Around age 40 I put on twenty pounds. I had always had a perfect metabolism. But, my metabolism betrayed me as it does most people, except a very rare few who will always be thin. – Suzanne Somers
