How to finally kick the weight to the curb!- Part 2

In Part 2 of  our “Kick the weight to the Curb” series – Food!   I know the biggest culprit to weight loss failure for most is food, wrong food, lots a food, unhealthy food and food cravings. We’re gonna continue to keep it simple:

Develop Healthy Habits

Healthy food is just plain good for you and it can taste delicious too. In the end you will find it much more satisfying than any fast food, fatty microwave meal or snack foods that can be found in a vending machine…  and your body will thank you for it. 

* build good eating habits

Start with a good substantial breakfast in the morning, have a healthy lunch and PLAN your dinners. This is one of the biggest pit falls to a healthy family meal. when nothing is planned for dinner, most families will resort to fast food take-out or delivery and gauge on things like chinese food and pizza!  Planning dinners will help to avoid this pitfall.  Menu Planning Central is the best resource I know for help with this, they offer a free report  called  Save Time And Money By  Planning Your Meals , just visit the link to download your free report.

* Get rid of sugar substitutes 

Did you know that artificial sweeteners can actually cause sugar cravings? Artificial sweetners are nothing but another un-natural chemical you are putting into your body every day. And they effect your body negatively!   A natural sweetener called stevia is growing in popularity. It allows you to sweeten your food and beverages without extra calories and without the sugar cravings. 

* Drink enough water – I know I’ve been over this before! 

Did you know that we often feel hungry when we are actually thirsty? The two sensations (hunger and thirst) come from two areas in the brain that lay right next to each other, making it easy for us to confuse one with the other. Often times when you think you are hungry, what you actually need is a big glass of water. 

That’s it!  remember – keep it simple…
