Healthy eating tips on what you are eating and why:
- Plan out your meals for the day
- Do not let yourself get ravenous
- Eat every 3 hours
- Read Food Labels
- Watch your caloric intake
- Remember you are fueling your body for energy
The
key to achieving a healthy weight is to be aware of the food choices you are
making. It is important to be aware of when your body needs to
be fueled. For instance my body needs food every two and half hours. They key
word here is fuel.
The goal
is to fuel your body not eat for pleasure. Of course on the
occasion there is nothing like going out and treating yourself to that juicy
steak and fries -but remember on a daily basis we are eating to keep our blood
sugars at a consistent level.Also do not let yourself get to the point of such hunger that you are not even aware of what it is you are eating. I have in the past allowed myself to get so hungry that I am near tears and then inhale my food that I do not even remember what it is I have just eaten! Tasting your food and appreciating what you are eating is important. Chew your food, enjoy each bite!
Most importantly remember to eat 3 healthy meals throughout the day with snacks in between and of course plenty of water. This way we cannot play games with ourselves. If you have had a bad day, or you are overtired, do not use food as your comfort.
