It good old fashion competition at it's best.... But according to sources Bey ain't sleeping on this one she actually was set to release an album entitled "Mrs. Carter" but due to her outspoken verbal spankings it may have been pushed back but that didn't get in the way of Ms. Sasha Fierce dropping clips of her single "Bow Down( I been on) " take a listen and tell us what you think...  This I don't think is only directed to Mrs. Gibson but all the other nay sayers that she's just supressed not saying that this makes us any less a fan of Keyshia But Girl you better come back with something solid cau dis' rii here gon' snap that cap back chile'

Not too long ago, it was rapper Drake that surprised many people by sharing with the world he just graduated from high school.

Most recently, it was incarcerated rapper Lil Boosie to get his GED. The unique thing about Lil Boosie doing it, is that he done it while behind bars.

Here is what Complex Magazine reported...

:

Legally embattled Baton Rouge rapper Lil Boosie just graduated from his Angola State Prison GED program. It seems that Boosie is making the most of his eight-year sentence behind bars on charges of attempting to smuggle drugs into two different prisons on three separate occasions.

According to a recent interview with SPIN, Boosie's counsel estimates his release to come some time between this summer, and at the latest, 2014.

I Lost, I Gained Now Im In it to Win It! 11 Do's & Don'ts Of Weight Loss

11 Ways To Keep Your Metabolism working even when your not!

A daily Regime for and By  Iliane Lewis this may help you too!

1.                  Eat Fewer calories than your body is used to but make sure you choose what you eat wisely, also eating every 2-3 hours is a must to keep that bad fat burning

2.                  Eating fewer carbs is known to burn fat as well (fact: since carbs kick up insulin, a hormone that inhibits fat breakdown and drives fat storage. Eat fewer carbs and insulin levels tend to moderate, leading to fat loss.)                                                                                                                                                         

*Note*

Foods not to eat while trying to reach your desired goal

These carbs include white bread, most cold cereals, any sweets, rice cakes, white rice and white potatoes. Conversely, slow-digesting carbs (found in whole-grain breads, oatmeal, sweet potatoes and legumes) don't cause much of an insulin rise, so these should make up the vast majority of your carb consumption.

3.                  Your intake should always be 100% whole wheat, not white. At all times during the day, in fact, choose whole-grain foods over refined ones, the only exception being immediately after a workout, when fast-digesting carbs reign supreme for boosting insulin and replenishing muscle glycogen stores Keep carbs to less than 2 grams per pound of bodyweight per day.

4.                  Stress Protein! Protein, on the other hand, not only adds to your muscle - key in boosting the metabolism - but actually increases your metabolism more directly. The body burns more calories processing protein than it burns to process carbs or fat, known as the thermic effect of food. That's the main reason diets that include a lot of protein result in greater fat loss than low-protein diets, even when both diets contain the same amount of calories.

 

*Note*

Foods to Feast On To aide in fat burning

Eat at least 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight every day. Your major protein sources should be lean meats (chicken, steak, turkey breast, tuna), egg whites (the yolks contain the fat, so discard most of them when you're trying to lose fat), protein powder (whey or casein) and low-fat cottage cheese. As for fat, limit it to 20%-30% of your total daily caloric intake.

5.                  Eating Carbs by themselves? No Bueno!  According to muscle& fitness.com “when attempting to lose body fat, insulin control is crucial. The total amount of insulin released by the body isn't related to just how many carbohydrates you eat but how fast those carbs are digested. Refined carbs digest quickly, raising insulin levels substantially, which is why you should avoid them. But if you do happen to eat, say, a bowl of cold cereal (typically a fast-digesting carb), you can still take measures to ensure those carbs digest more slowly. This will cause less insulin to be released and therefore have less of an impact on your ability to burn fat.”

*Note*

“One way to slow digestion is to eat carbs with protein and small amounts of fat. Never eat carbs alone. Accompany that bowl of cereal, for example, with scrambled egg whites or cottage cheese. Alternatively, you could eat plenty of vegetables, such as broccoli, cauliflower, green beans and green salads, with your meals. These foods actually slow the breakdown and digestion rate of all carbohydrates.”

6.                  The Importance of Timing! Eating before 6pm and no carbs before bed ( According to M&F.com ) “Once again, it's about hormones. At night your insulin sensitivity decreases, meaning your body must release more insulin than usual to put any carbohydrates you eat at night to use in the body. And by now you know that higher insulin levels can decrease fat-burning and enhance fat storage. In addition, the body naturally produces a fat-liberating hormone called growth hormone (GH) within the initial 90 minutes of sleep.”

*Note*

Don't eat anything about three hours before bed. A better option is to eat only protein meals the final four hours before bed, with one protein meal immediately before bedtime that includes only protein, such as casein shake or a Nutritious Smoothie ( My Suggestion Bolt House or Naked Juices) , low-fat cottage cheese or chicken breast. You can, however, eat a small serving of vegetables here if you wish.

7.                  Who says eating a lot can’t be healthy! (According to M&F.com)” Every time you eat, the body's calorie-burning engine, also known as metabolism, slightly increases. This is especially true for meals that contain protein. So if you eat six times a day, you'll experience six metabolic surges a day, rather than just four if you eat only four times a day. And, of course, eating seven or eight times per day would be even better than six. This is one way to lean out without having to drastically reduce calories. Frequent feedings tend to increase the chance that what you eat will make its way into muscle tissue rather than being packed away as body fat”.

*Note*

Prioritize Post Work out Meals

Consume 30-40 grams of protein powder such as whey powder and casein along with 60-80 grams of fast-digesting carbs (a large baked potato, 4-5 slices of white bread or a large sports drink such as Gatorade) as soon as possible within an hour after training.

8.                  Fast Carbs before work out? NOOOO!!!! Fifteen to 30 minutes (or less) before training, consume 20 grams of protein powder in a whey shake or other protein powder source and 30-40 grams of carbohydrates to help you train hard all the way through your workout. Stick with slow-digesting carbs here, such as oat bran, oatmeal, rye or whole-wheat bread, fruit or sweet potatoes. On no workout days, eat that meal as a snack and drop your post workout feeding

9.                  Empty The Fat Storage Aka Glycogen Stores: One way to kick-start the fat-burning process is to go extremely low-carb on two consecutive days every couple of weeks. This ensures that you tap into your glycogen stores for fuel, which signals the body to burn more fat. How to do this is simple so pay attention! Limit your total carbs on two consecutive days every two weeks or so to less than 100 grams per day. This will require you to know how many grams of carbohydrates are in the foods you eat and have the discipline to be very strict on your intake. Your diligence will be rewarded with a noticeable difference in body fat. After two days, you can return to a more normal, though not excessive, carb intake.

10.              Stay Active! Sweat like you’re taking a shower! Being the Big Voluptuous female being healthy was never on the agenda for me until I became unhappy about Me! Once I started going back to the Gym I noticed that a difference in the way I worked out with the help of a trainer as opposed to just me being there on my own… My work out coach Dan Put me on a 30 minute Circuit run which is cardio mixed with muscle sculpting and toning how it works for me is simple 2 minutes of cardio then straight into resistance training with (the Band, elliptical, Ab machine, lower back machine, squats, lunges, leg& arm extension as well as leg, arm, triceps and bicep building) and Throughout the 30mintutes I repeat cardio and strengthening training though 2 minutes doesn’t seem to be a lot trust me it is especially when you are just getting into the swing of things it feels like your lifting more than working but it absolutely helps! I also stretch a lot and attend a zumba class when I can.  Point being Train until your Beat! Meaning fall in love with being on the move my 30 minutes will gradually extend it may be different for you it may work in a shorter or longer time depending on YOU! I know my limits hence gradually coming along.

*Note*

Go ahead, train as intensely as you like, just don't go longer than 75 minutes in any one workout. Do as many sets and reps as you can during this time, using shorter rest periods (60 seconds max), but when your 60-75 minutes end, finish up and go drink your protein/carb shake.

11.              Cardio and Endurance is Key! It’s Burn Calories and Fat  as well as  effects hormone levels in the body: cardio helps raise levels of norepinephrine. Yet when you do cardio makes a big difference in how your body handles the hormonal changes. Cardio on an empty stomach allows norepinephrine to readily target fat cells, which triggers maximal fat-burning. On the

flip side, if you eat before doing cardio, and particularly if you eat carbs, the fat-blocking hormone insulin rises, making your body less effective at burning fat.

*End Note*

To ensure that your body is in optimal fat-burning mode, do 30-60 minutes of cardio first thing in the morning before breakfast 4-6 days per week. Feel free, however, to drink your morning coffee (without cream or sugar) and take 6-10 grams of mixed amino acids or a small amount of whey protein powder mixed in water beforehand. The caffeine will help you burn more fat, as will the amino acids (whether from a supplement or whey protein), as research from Kanazawa University in Japan has found. The aminos will also help prevent muscle breakdown during cardio.
