Nutrition keeps the body function at its optimum capabilities and also helps to maintain an overall
health condition.
1. Nutrition is the key factor to a
healthy body system.
As Julia Child said, “Eating is a necessity, but to eat intelligently is an art.” Planning is the best weapon so that you can eat the right food with
nutritional value intelligently.
2. Eat intelligently.
3. Be mindful of the reason that
can trigger you to eat.
Remind yourself of whatever your reasons are so that you would become more motivated in going through eating healthy to lose weight.
4. Write down the reasons why you
have to eat healthy.
Dieting is about changing your perspective on food and making choices that are sustainable for
long term.
5. Redefine your idea of dieting.
Keep a record on how much weight you are able to shed off as the weeks go by so that you would see if there are certain adjustments you need to make. It can also ensure that you are motivated in keeping
up with it.
6. Keep a food diary or a healthy eating
journal.
Change your minds set to and think about selecting foods that will help your health rather than worrying about foods that will
affect your body’s weight.
7. Stay focus on being healthy, not becoming
thin.
Starving yourself impairs your glucose tolerance so you can’t use it as effectively.
8. Don’t starve yourself to lose
weight.
Different foods have different nutritional values. There are greens, yellows, oranges, purples and
reds in the fruit and vegetable aisle.
9. Eat a variety of different colored food.
Fad diets are not the best way to slim down and keep it off. They frequently promise
speedy weight loss or tell you to cut particular foods out of your diet.
10. Avoid fad diets, particularly those with unrealistic
promises.
Think first before you put something on your plate. Study shows that brain naturally craves
the taste of food a split second before accounting for the health benefits.
11. Think first before you eat.
Enjoying your meal means you savor it more and not necessarily to eat it as fast as you can. Have a
more pleasant experience in eating.
12. Enjoy your meal.
Consuming excess amounts of any food can lead to increased calorie intake and, over time, possible
weight gain.
13. Low-fat does not mean low
calories.
Choose a healthy program that works for you and stick to it. Not all diet programs can work to
everyone.
14. Have the right and best nutrition
program.
Diet foods and drinks can just be as bad for you as their regular counterparts even if the diet food
industry hopes you think otherwise.
15. Beware of “diet” foods – they make
you fat.
