So this week’s blog is how to stick to your diet. Many people don’t like to go on diets simply because they hate the concept of them or think that it’s okay to have “cheat days” or reward themselves with unhealthy foods. The truth is, you are allowed to give in to temptation when it comes to food, but only a very very very small amount. If you don’t give in when you want to at that time, you are more likely to over indulge at another time and regret it later on.
Well here’s some easy tips to sticking to your diet successfully…lhj.com or ladies home journal provides 10 great tips for women to successfully sticking to diets (don’t worry, guy friendly too!)
Make a food diary.. list everything that you’ve throughout the day. This way you know what calories you have eaten and can track the good foods and minimize the bad ones. This will ultimately decrease the amount of fast food and bad carbs you choose to eat from now on.
Create a plan/choose a diet that fits your lifestyle.. I mean as much as we all want to look like Marisa Miller and Ryan Reynolds…..well the world is just not that perfect. So be realistic! And choose meals that you know are accessible like whole wheat pasta and broccoli with butter.
It’s all about portion control!!! So if you go out to dinner, remember you pay the bill so you can ask for smaller portions. But if they do say no you can ask for a smaller plate and portion the meal out yourself. I know temptation is always there but be strong and don’t eat the meal. Just think, you’ll have more of the meal as leftovers for tomorrow (more bank for your buck)!!
