For those of you who have been waiting for me to upload my DIET TIPS video, I'm so so so sorry! I've been really caught up with school recently since I had to skip a few days to go home, but I'll be sure to film the video tomorrow and have it up by this weekend. To give you guys a basic idea on how I lost weight I'll just briefly say that I've drastically changed my eating habits in order to lose the 15 pounds that I lost. I take pictures of all my food so here's a basic idea of what I tend to stick to when eating out. It's amazing how much I absolutely love salads/vegetables/fruits now and would probably prefer it over a tasty burger. I do count my calories (although I don't recommend it) which has helped me to eat in moderation.
My typically days consist of:
1. mornings: apple, high fiber cereal, & low-fat yogurt
2. lunch: either a lean cuisine, home-made sandwiches, subway, cup noodles ( i generally don't care about what I eat for lunch as long as it's not a big mac!)
3. snack after lunch: either wheat crackers, a handful of nuts, baked goldfish- anything small and tasty!
4. dinner: (typically my smallest meal of the day) either a salad, sandwich, chicken with brown rice, boiled eggs with shrimp.. (a lowfat meat such as chicken/shrimp with some type of carb)
5. after dinner snack: blueberries, grapes, or some type of fruit
I generally try not to eat after 7pm.
Hope this kind of gives you an idea of what to stick to... get rid of all those junk snacks such as chips/cookies/candy and replace them with fruits and vegetables! Or healthier alternatives that are natural such as nuts :) Also, get rid of sugary drinks such as fruit juice/soda/etc.. and replace it with WATER! water is seriously a very important factor to losing weight. I typically drink around 5-6 cups of water a day. Replace your fatty meats with fish/lean chicken/seafood.
Stay tuned for the video!!
