Be healthy and fit with these helpful tips! 😍👍🙌
TRACK YOUR FOOD.
Research shows that tracking your food helps you drop the pounds by making you a more mindful eater and keeping you accountable.
EAT SLOWER.
It takes 20 minutes for your brain to tell your stomach it is full so slow down! Chew well and put down your fork or drink a glass of water between bites.
CONTROL PORTIONS.
Your hand is all you need. A serving of protein = 1 palm; serving of vegetables = 1 fist; serving of carbohydrates = 1 cupped hand; serving of fat =1 thumb. Women use one hand, men two hands.
OBSERVE 80/20 RULE.
Eat mainly whole, unprocessed or minimally processed foods 80% of the time, and indulge a little on the other 20%. It’s about moderation, not deprivation.
INCREASE FIBER.
Focusing on fiber in your diet helps you to minimize processed and fatty foods and helps fill you up. Women = 30-35 grams/day; Men = 40-45 grams/day.
DRINK MORE WATER.
Replace your sugary drinks to save calories and give you a feeling of fullness. In fact, mild dehydration can sometimes mask itself as hunger. Stay hydrated!
