Hi from Joanne McMahon
Alot of my clients ask about snacking. Should they have six small meals a day, should they have snacks, how often should they eat?
It has got quite confusing for the public with the many diets and weight loss advice on the market.
Six small meals a day really suits people who are doing intense physical exercise. So you really need to be working out in the gym alot to make this work for you! Also, it is SIX SMALL MEALS. Not six medium size meals! It is quite hard to keep this in balance and the meals small. This way of eating suits people who are training intensely daily.
If you do perhaps 30 minutes of walking a day, you really should be having three well balanced meals a day and one small healthy snack if you find that perhaps late in the afternoon you are feeling weak. A snack equates to about a palm size of a healthy option eg almonds, yoghurt, strawberries, blueberries, celery, carrots.
If you are not exercising, simply three meals a day, and no snacks should be achievable.
If you are a snacker, start today by cleaning out your pantry! Get rid of all the high fat, sugary, salty snacks and soft drinks that are making you overweight.
Start taking little steps daily to achieve your goals.
Take it one day at a time!
Replace sugary soda's with water!
Replace unhealthy snacks with a healthy snack!
These two steps are a great way to change bad habits. Start with these two tips and work towards setting yourself some bigger goals. I can assure you that if you start with these two steps, you will feel the difference and see the difference!
Have a fantastic day and here is a quick question for you....
Have you had any water today? If not, go get a glass...
Water is your weight loss and beauty elixir
Take care
Joanne
