~Dieting Notes, Scribbling & Other Madness~ @dietingnotes - Tumblr Blog

Eat everyday like your life depended on it.

Good advice from Marilu Henner. She is turning 61 this year and is as radiant as ever. Every morsel you put into your mouth has a physical consequence on your body whether you like it or not.

Remember to fill your plate with the rainbow every single meal. Brown food is dull and boring and most of the time just a filler with no substance.

Drink a minimum of eight glasses of water a day. Our bodies are starving for hydration because the majority of us do not drink anything but tea and coffee and soft drinks all day long.

Food combining is an old technique but it enables us to get the most from our diet in needed nutrients.

Fruits should be eaten alone

Proteins and starches can only be paired together when there is a legume or vegetable bridge paired with them.

Proteins can be eaten with all vegetable combinations together.

No sugar or sugar substitutes as they will age your body very quickly.

Try to eliminate caffeine from your diet, your body does not need it.

Exercise a minimum of 30 minutes a day to get your blood flowing. For some that could be just moving around the house, but you need to keep moving otherwise those muscles including your heart will start to atrophy and will not work well later on when we need them too.

Choose to live healthy and happy every single day.

Diet Notes...

1. Overeating is a habit. And like any habit, it can be conquered, if you have the will and drive to get started.

2. Proceed with your weight loss one meal at a time, one day at a time, one week at a time. Taking one step at a time, strengthening yourself slowly, you can not fail.

3. Learn to delay gratification. The next time you begin to bite into a candy bar, order a fattening dessert from a restaurant menu, walk into the bakery for a Danish pastry, stop and ask yourself: “Would I rather have this or a slim young figure?”

4. No crash dieting. Because you must learn new habits of eating, it is useless for you to go on a “crash” or “fad” diet or to take diet pills or appetite depressants of any kind. “Why learn to use a crutch when you can learn how to walk properly?”

5. Control your environment. Don’t surround yourself with temptation by buying cookies and candies.

6. Learn to laugh. We are constantly playing games with ourselves and in serious denial about why we are heavy and/or not losing weight.

7. No alcohol. No skipping meals. No counting calories.

8. No excuses. You can stick to your healthy diet and successfully lose weight no matter what your home, social, business, or school life may be.

9. Stick to your diet plan and the plan will work.

10. Maintenance is important. Once you lose the weight, follow the maintenance plan so you learn to keep the weight off.

11. To be successful on the program, will require your desperation, your sincerity and your cooperation and your patience!!

When you find yourself on a bad day just remember that it’s ok to make slip ups.

Even if you eat over your daily calorie goal just remember that so long as you stay under the calories that you need to eat to weigh the same, then you will still lose the weight, it will just be a little slower is all.

So don’t beat yourself up over that extra snack or latte or whatever you like!

Remember that any progress no matter how small… Is still progress!

Stopped at Target to get the pets food and then walked around for about 15 minutes scanning things with the WW app trying to find a low point snack. Lol

I won…3 points!
