I think the spring is the most motivating time of year to shed those extra fat pounds. Have you noticed that since the days have become longer (and warmer) you just feel better? Listen to your body and regain back your health!
In my busy nutritional consulting practice, Positive Change Nutrition, www.rachellewood.ca, I’ve noticed that this seems to be the week my former weight loss clients pick up the phone and book in for some more motivational sessions. Since I always encourage my clients to read my blog for motivation, this post in particular will help them (and you) to lose weight faster. Enjoy these simple dietary tricks you can easily incorporate into your daily routine.
Rachelle Wood’s Top 10 Calorie Cutting Weight Loss Tips
- Eat until your 80% full, no more any less.
- Eat no starchs or grains with supper.
- Portion control your meals and snacks.
- Pre plan your meals and make a grocery store list.
- Eat a salad every day, as a main meal or side dish.
- Fill up on water, not food, when you are hungry.
- Always order salad dressing on the side.
- Never eat 2 starches in the same meal, example bread and pasta.
- Sauté vegetables in sauces, broths, juices not oil.
- Write your food down every day in a food journal.
Remember, it’s the little things you do everyday that will influence your overall weight loss. By combining healthy portion controlled food and exercise into your daily routine, you will increase weight loss results! Buy a pedometer to track your daily steps, and write your foods down to control portions. Always remember to plan your meals, and try skip out on the restaurant eating all together. When you’re on track, it’s not worth the extra calories.
