DIETING SUCKS!!! Right? Here is a suggestion, stop DIETING! We are changing our lifestyle towards better health. Losing weight is a great benefit to this change. When we think of dieting, we think of restrictions and then we feel deprived and sometimes guilty. STOP FEELING THAT WAY!!! It is ok, really, it is! You want Chocolate? Have it, just remember to have it in moderation. When we are “healthy”, our bodies don’t even want large quantities of sugar. Enjoy the small portions, trust me, you will feel better in the end J

Food tip of the day

Try controlling your portions by eating on small plates. I never knew how much I was eating until I measured. If you need to, measure your servings. Keep a food journal. Do whatever it takes to know what and how much you are putting in your body, it is crucial to weight loss. Try not to eat low- fat, low -carb, fat- free, etc. foods. They don’t help! I found that I gained weight eating like that because of what is in those foods. Eat the real thing; just eat it in smaller portions. J
