Eating the 'right' foods will help you get the body you want.
Want to take your nutrition in the right direction to burn fat and put you on the path to weight loss? It’s simply a matter of making better decisions!
Set yourself up for SUCCESS:
– Have a list when you go grocery shopping.
– DO NOT buy the things you know are bad for you. If you have it in your house, you’ll eat it.
– Learn how to cook. Nothing fancy (unless you want to), just the basics. Or hire a chef to do the cooking for you.
– If you must indulge, buy a small amount and eat it i.e. 1 ice cream bar instead of the pacakage of 3. NO, it isn’t cheaper! It’s costs you your health.
It’s not just a matter of having ‘Willpower.’ You must set up your environment for success if you really want results. Try it!
Your meals should look more like this...
WHAT TO DO: Drink ONLY water and green tea, eat quality lean proteins like grass-fed beef, free-range chicken, omega-3 eggs and wild-caught fish. Eat gluten-free grains like quinoa and brown rice. Probably the most important, eat lots of multicolored vegetables i.e. spinach, red cabbage, kale, red peppers, broccoli, etc.
...and less like this. By the way, no, ketchup is not a vegetable.
ELIMINATE (OR LIMIT): Soda, alcohol, sugar, factory-farmed red meat, chicken, and fish, refined cooking oils, processed food i.e. anything that comes in a box or package ingredients you can’t pronounce, and get rid of processed grains like white rice, pastas, pasteries, and most cereals.
FOLLOW these guidelines with a quality exercise program that has both ‘cardio’ and strength training in it, then watch your body TRANSFORM.
Ultimately, it’s not about losing weight. It’s about eating the right amount of high quality food mixed with high intensity exercise, good sleeping habits and keeping your stress levels in check. The way you want to look really comes from the combination of those things.
