Introduction
Making the Commitment
If you wish to change your lifestyle to a healthier one, nutrition is a great place to start. One thing that helps above is planning. If you plan your meals ahead of time, you will be less likely to cheat and will be able to stick with the plan. The goal of this book is to provide you with a great number of nutritious recipes to help with menu planning. You will find the recipes in this book to be the top in nutrition covering a variety of diets. You can mix and match the recipes with great results if your goal is to live a healthier lifestyle.
Get out your pen and paper and create the menu for the next week. If you are new to meal planning, take it one week at a time so it will not overwhelm you. Look through the recipes in this book and plan the suppers first, since they are the largest meals. If you play it right, you may be able to arrange it so you have leftovers you can eat for your lunch the next day. The recipes are easily doubled or tripled. Next, plan the breakfasts. Lastly plan the snacks and desserts. This book contains several dessert, appetizer, and snack recipes. Feel free to add to the snacks by choosing fresh fruit, raw veggies, nuts, or even leftovers.
Once you make your menu, you need to create your grocery list. Try to think of your favorite grocery store and create the list according to the layout of the store, that way you will not be off looking around for items on the list. Once you get home, take a few minutes to prep the foods that need prepping to save on time during the week. Cut up the vegetables, etc. the foods that will keep okay like that. This will make your meals of the week easier to deal with and prepare.
Making the Dieting a Success
Now that you are on your way with a great meal plan, you can do a few other things to make your new lifestyle a success. You must deal with any junk food habits you have. If you are addicted to junk food, you will go through withdrawals. But once you completely wean from junk food your cravings will turn to craving more nutritious foods, the very foods you find in the recipes in this book. First, though, deal with your bad eating habits to make this dieting change a success.
For the first 3 weeks of the diet allow yourself to eat some of the junk foods in which you are addicted. Try to recall the last week what you ate and write it down. Now you can make the change slowly, replacing one meal or snack of junk food every three to five days with healthier meals and snacks. By the end of three weeks, you should be weaned from the junk foods.
Incorporate plenty of water with your dieting routine. Water goes well with all diets and is a requirement for your body in order to be healthy. Without water, your body will become dehydrated. Without plenty of water, your body will become sluggish. Water helps to cleanse the body, making sure the digestive system runs well. Water also helps to keep the skin clear. If you are dieting to lose weight, water certainly helps with that. In addition, ironically, if you are bloated with water weight,
drinking more water helps your body to get rid of the bloat.
You need to drink according to your weight. There is a standard eight glasses of water a day
that you may hear. This is only true if you weigh one hundred twenty-eight pounds. To calculate how much water you need a day take your body weight and divide by two. That total is the total in ounces of how much water you need. Say you weigh one hundred and fifty pounds, you divide that by two, and you have seventy-five pounds. So if you weigh one hundred and fifty pounds you would need about seventy-five ounces of water a day, or about a little over nine cups a day.
One More Thing To Make a Healthy Lifestyle
It is hard not to discuss exercise when discussing a nutritious diet. Diet and exercise go hand in hand when it come to your health. The body needs physical activity in order to be in top healthy shape. Take the time to work out in a good exercise routine at least three times a week. If you are not accustomed to doing this, start slow. You may find it is a tough thing to do at first, because it requires more energy than you may feel like you have. But you will find something
