Ali Hale’s blog at The Office Diet has great practicle tips for losing weight and monitoring your diet.
Write it Down.
Sounds simple doesn’t it?
Do you remember what you had for lunch on Monday?
In our busy lives it can be very challenging to plan and monitor your diet when you are on the go.
Ali writes about how it is important to monitor:
- What you ate
- How much or how many calories you ate
Most importantly you will probably get to see a number of patterns in your eating.
- How much do you spend on food?
- What types of foods dominate your diet?
- Are you eating enough fruits and vegetables?
- Are you drinking enough water? Or rather, how much soda pop are you consuming?
- What variety of foods do you eat?
Before you go spending hundreds of dollars on diet supplements or prescription weight loss remedies give this method a try for 30 days. It may open your eyes!
