Watch how and what you eat. I am not a nutritionist and I don’t play one on TV but I have spent many years practicing a diet consisting of healthy choices. Sure I cheat, but it is all done in moderation. Here are a few tips.
1. Pick 2-3 foods that you know are bad for you and that you indulge in the most and cut them out entirely. Maybe you have an ice cream fix every night at 9PM. Knock it off! Or, instead of a bowl, just have one spoonful and be done.
2. Eat breakfast. One of the most common diet concern that I see in my clients is that they don’t eat breakfast. You have to get your body going in the morning. Eating breakfast helps jump start your metablolism and sets the tone for the rest of the day. Oh yeah, make sure your breakfast doesn’t include Pop-Tarts.
3. Eat more often! Can you believe I just said that? You should be eating at least 5 meals a day. Eat less at each meal so that you aren’t as hungry for your main meals. Trust me, it works.
4. Water, Water, Water. It will make you pee once an hour but it can perform miracles.
5. For goodness sake, make HEALTHY CHOICES. Fruit, vegetables, chicken and other lowfat, vitamin rich foods should make up the base of your diet.
Happy Eating and Good Luck!
