The Fat Loss Authority- How to Lose Weight

Is healthy eating on your list for the New Year? Of course it is! Second only to eating a healthy breakfast, packing healthy lunches and snacks for work is essential for you to stay on track with healthy eating and to fuel the active part of the day. Packing your own lunch and snacks helps you stay in control of your food for the day. It is also less expensive then eating out.

Healthy lunches should include a selection from at least 3 of the 4 major food groups below:

1. Grains and Breads

2. Fruits and Vegetables

3. Milk and Diary

4. Meats

Think of snacks as mini meals. Healthy snacks should include a selection from each of groups above but mainly from number 2 above: Fruits and Vegetables. We need to eat more

Now wait a minute…. I’m not suggesting you go start sucking down tubes of toothpaste just yet. There’s another way to put that minty fresh paste to good use. This all stems from reading an interview in Men’s Fitness… wait, or was it Men’s Health?… about how Pamela Anderson fights the urge to snack by brushing her teeth. If snacking or satisfying your cravings before, after or between meals is your dieting downfall, and you find yourself struggling to stop this habit, try brushing your teeth with toothpaste. It will help signal the end of your meal. And if you’re tempted to take another bite, you’ll be quickly reminded that most food doesn’t taste very good when your tastebuds are overwhelmed with cool mint, cinnamon, lavender, pine, or whatever other flavor you may fancy.
