First off, an abundance of Vegetables, and a balance of Protein and Carbohydrates (Fruits and other carbohydrates of which some are better for weight loss than others. Monitoring which kinds of carbohydrates is important). Vegetables are great for helping take off those unwanted pounds and keeping them off because they are filling and packed with vitamins. They also supply you with energy to burn and they don't weight heavy in your stomach for long because you quickly metabolize them. So veggies help you lose weight.
Protein consumption should be chicken and lean beef. Protein helps burn Fruits are great to consume as your carbohydrates. They have great vitamins and a natural sugar source which generates energy that your body needs. Healthy snacks at night are Oranges, apples, almonds, walnuts, Grapefruit which is a great fat burner.
KEY TIP #1: Never eat your supper after 7pm.
If you get hungry grab a handful of nuts or have an apple with peanut butter or an orange. That will burn off slowly and keep the sugar craving away all night.
KEY TIP #2: Vegetables are important for both the bulk fiber and importance of metabolizing in your system to burn fat.
With vegetables, like broccoli and asparagus you can eat as much as you want but your stomach can hold only so much of it. There are very few calories in these 2 veggie. The energy it takes to metabolize them in your system helps you burn calories and lose weight or it helps keep you thin. It is difficult to get fat eating vegetables.
When you don't eat vegetables, that is a problem. Because you do not have the fiber to make your system work and metabolize the food, you are not burning as many calories. It will be more much difficult for you to lose weight.
What's worse is, if you are lacking vegetables in your meal plan, you are tempted to fill your plate with the same amount of food. This means you will be eating more carbohydrates and a lot more protein which is higher in calories. Sad to say, you won't see the weight loss results that you want to see on the scale!
Vegetable and fruit with every meal is:
-
1)You will eat less calories
2) It is great fiber and vitamins with which you are nourishing your body
3)It will help you drop noticeable fat!
Vegetables and fruits are key.
KEY TIP #3: Protein is keybecause it balances the fruit (or carbohydrates) and vegetable and builds muscle.
Protein is needed for weight loss because it gives you the nutrients that you need to build your muscles and balance out the fruit, carbs and vegetables.
It ramps up your metabolism and your body burns more calories. Chicken breasts are an easy choice of protein. I personally have my Zeal Protein Shake which has 21 grams of protein in it and I eat just a small amount of chicken or ground beef that is 5% fat 95% beef (or TIP: when London Broil is on sale, I generally have the butcher in the meat department of any store grind up 30 pounds and package it in 1 pound packages. When I get home, I put each of those 1 pound packages into a Freezer baggy. Great savings $2.99 or $3.99 a pound vs $5.49 a pound for the extra lean ground beef.)
Salmon is another protein that is extremely good for weight loss, nutrients, and controlling your blood sugar, as just a small amount of Salmon can work wonders for you and keep your body happy.
Remember, you always need the three categories.
#1)Need Protein for your muscle, Protein keeps your metabolism running high, consequently, you burn more fat. When my blood sugar is high, I drink a protein drink to balance it.
#2)Eat lots and lots of vegetables all day long. Vegetables will probably be your lifestyle change that will allow you to burn off more fat.
#3) Balance with Carbohydrates. I personally use the fruits to balance my Carbs.
You can cut out the brown rice or sweet potatoes and use your carb count in fruits. It all balances out.
KEY is not to be excessive in your intake of high sugar fruits, such as oranges, bananas, raisins, cranberries are some examples of high sugar fruits (google "Sugar Content of Fruit"
.
Berries have a tendency to have a lower sugar content.
Vegetables there is no limit, but fruits you do need to count.
KEY FACTOR #4: PORTIONS.
Portions are extremely important. When considering how much you should serve yourself when losing or maintaining weight, it should be about 1 ½ the size of your fist that should be the size of your complete meal which is your protein, carbohydrates and vegetables. If after you have eaten your meal, you feel that you are not satisfied with that amount of food as your suggested meal serving, you may add more vegetables only. That way, you have more food, but the calories you have added are very minimal.
That is the best choice.
If possible consider eating 5 times a day (3 meals as discussed above and a snack in between each meal) to continually keep your metabolism working. That way, it doesn't allow the foods to store fat in your cells. Grab an apple or peach or a few carrots or broccoli crowns in between meals to keep your metabolism burning that fat.
See, you can enjoy eating and still lose or maintain that weight. The worst thing you can possibly do is skip meals and think you will lose weight. Your body thinks you are starving and will just store every bit of fat into those fat cells in your body it can grab onto.
You'll say, "I am starving and I am gaining weight instead of losing. What is going on?
I am starving." That is the WRONG IDEA! Eat 5 small meals a day to keep your body metabolizing, burning fat and losing weight and YOU HAPPY!
