Let's see some realistic meal habits we can begin to
cultivate, remember we mentioned previously that the key is to let your
expectations be in alignment with realities.
Today's realistic
meal habit is PORTION CONTROL, some people say they've been trying to lose
weight but they can't keep their weight down, when I ask how they've been
eating they say proudly "I EAT ONCE OH" yes! Some of them add the
'oh' for emphasis.
That 'once' is a
'bruncher' (a word I coined from the combination of breakfast, lunch and
dinner) Therein lies the
error of the weight loss journey. Spreading your meals across your entire day
is a much better approach, and by eating the right portion size you can keep
your weight down and also in control.
HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR PORTION SIZE
1. Make a fist with
both of your hands joined together, that's about the size of your stomach
2. Ensure that every
meal is not as large as your fists (so that you do not feel
over stuffed
3. Spread your meals
into several (5-6) portions at different times in the day
4. Your meals should
consist of (Breakfast Snack-Lunch-Snack-Dinner-Snack)
5. Ensure your snacks
are nuts, fruits and even water(sometimes the hunger feeling might just be
thirst and not hunger)
6. Drink lots of
water before and after your meals, (it gives you a filling of being full) but
ensure you are not over stuffed.
