- Portion Sizes: A self-awareness “habit” is a very effective tool that will help you to automatically ingest the right calorie amount for YOU. If you don't allow yourself to get a little hungry and/or you eat too much (more than 80% full) chances are, you won't lose any weight or burn fat. Remember that the portion sizes in this meal plan are big enough to accommodate most people even the really active individuals. If your goal is fat loss, you have to be able to stop yourself from overeating. If you eat slowly, you’ll notice when you’re comfortably full and that’s when you need to stop. Always aim to be 80% full.
- Rate your hunger: Imagine a scale that goes from 1 to 5
- Starving
- Pretty Hungry (feeling hunger pangs)
- Neutral
- Comfortably Full (80 % full)
- Overly Full and Uncomfortable
- I recommend to stick with just the 3 main meals a day and allow your body to have those few hours in between meals to digest. If you have a craving for sweets or get hungry outside of the meals, have a snack I have included in the snack options. Before you go shopping please remember to add the simple ingredients of the snacks to your shopping list. I recommend snacks that are low in carbs and sugar and this is why: carbs turn into sugar in your bloodstream and sugar spikes your insulin levels and signals the body to store fat.
- Remember to drink plenty of water and mineral-rich beverages (like salty bone broth) to stay hydrated.
- Can't eat the whole meal? Made extra leftovers? You can try freezing the leftovers for later use. That way, if you're suddenly in a rush, are too tired to cook, or don't have a lot of time to prepare a meal, you can just reheat them. (Note: This is only if the directions don't tell you to "save and store the leftover portion(s) for later.")
- If one of the meals is too big or too small for you, feel free to tweak the portion sizes. Some people like to make multiple servings of a recipe, so if you decide to do this, multiply a recipe by the number of extra servings you want to make. For instance, if a recipe normally makes 1 portion, and you want to make 3, multiply it by 3.
