Tell me how your week went?

This weekend I learned to enjoy the little things in life. I wanted ice cream and cake at the party and I ate the cookie and cake.
I enjoyed every minute and didn't feel bad about it.

Enjoying the foods you love shouldn't make you feel guilty. Knowing when to stop eating those pleasure foods is what will make us succeed with our new lifestyle.

Key Points to remember when planning daily meals.


1.Too much food at one meal leads to new body fat storage.
2.Too much time between meals slows your metabolism.
3.Five to eight small meals/snacks can maximize metabolic rate and keep body-fat loss consistent.
4.Well-planned and nutrient filled meals lead to a steady, high energy level throughout the day.
5.Convenience is very important. Plan ahead to make sure you can eat when scheduled.
6.Keep nutrients fairly equally spaced throughout the day. (Don’t 2-3 servings of fruit for breakfast, space it out throughout the day)
7.Allow flexibility when necessary regarding meal ratios, but stay within your nutrient totals for the day.
8.Learn your body’s natural hunger patterns and adjust meal spacing accordingly, allowing for some flexibility.
