Reading Dr Stapleton’s book this morning and found this link on her website?
MAKE CONSISTENTLY HEALTHY FOOD CHOICES
protein first plus a vegetable or fruit
MAINTAIN PORTION CONTROL
forever more in every eating situation
EXERCISE ON A REGULAR BASIS
that means daily
DRINK PLENTY OF WATER THROUGHOUT THE DAY
but not 30 minutes before or after meals
EAT BREAKFAST
protein, protein, protein… doesn’t have to be traditional breakfast food
PLAN YOUR MEALS AND FOLLOW YOUR PLAN
you don’t have to want to… you just have to!
KEEP A FOOD DIARY
it keeps you accountable and is the best way to maintain weight loss
KEEP AN EXERCISE DIARY
it will remind you of all the great hard work you are doing
GET ENOUGH SLEEP
who knew there was a connection between sleep and weight? there is!
UTILIZE A HEALTHY SUPPORT SYSTEM
ObesityHelp.com of course!
PARTICIPATE IN INDIVIDUAL AND/OR GROUP THERAPY
okay… not a daily thing, but a very good idea on a weekly basis
It is all about planning, and avoiding reacting, isn’t it?
