Hi there folks!
Ever wonder what you can do to shed 3 - 5 pounds, in time for a special event or pending holiday? Worry no more. These tips will save you time or the need to increase your exercise.
1) Drink 8 oz. of water before every meal.
2) Aim for 6 smaller portions of food each day.
3) Think smaller portions, before you load your plate.
4) Use a smaller plate.
5) Load up on protein first.
6) Eat vegetables next.
7) If you crave sweets, substitute fruit or no-sugar pudding instead.
Considering adding whey protein to pudding, found at a local health foods store.
8) Find a picture of yourself when you were lighter. Place that picture on your bathroom mirror. Think daily about fitting into your favorite pants or dress, before you start your meals.
9) If you adore cheese and bread, limit your intake to a small slice of cheese, eaten every few days and eat whole grain breads, cutting out white foods (white rice, white bread,
sauces, white cereals).
