It's easy to improve your eating habits, but it's not easy to maintain those improvements over time. When life gets busy, it's very tempting to slip back into bad habits & old routines. The key is to PLAN AHEAD.
Tips on planning ahead:
• Put aside two hours on the weekends to wash & cut up your vegetables and fruit.
• Prepare your breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks the night before.
• Place your food in small portion containers so that they’re easy to grab & go.
• Purchase a cooler for the road.
• Fill up your water bottles the night before. It’s easier to have a few small ones than one large one.
• Most importantly, plan your food intake and calculate the calories for the next day before you go to bed. There are several apps & websites that can help you with your planning. We like:
Remember that if you are offered food that is not on your personal menu plan for the day, PASS IT UP!
