Nutrition Tips
Sit down to eat
Eat mindfully, feel the food in your mouth, concentrate
on all the different tastes, sit in silence
Put your fork down between bites, this will help you
slow down and eat less
Eat while you are happy or at peace
Eat from a smaller plate, this will help you feel fuller
Eat your protein first, this keeps hormone levels steady
and will help you feel fuller longer
Grocery Store Tips
Shop the perimeter of the store, this is where the healthiest,
freshest foods are found
Look for foods with the least amount of ingredients,
less is best
Shop when you are full, not hungry
When possible, choose natural/organic foods
Water Tips
Drink 1 cup of water before each meal
Drink when you feel hungry, most of the time your
body is only dehydrated
Add fruit to your water for added flavor and low calories
Carry a water bottle with you for added convenience
