Tip #1

So as promised each week I am going to try to post a tip for healthy eating, exercise, etc. I hope that as hard as the idea may seem to be that we can all try it, see if it works, and then later use it as you please! So the goal is to try the new task for 1 week...you can do it!
This week is going to be related to EATING...one of my favorite activities.
SO here is the plan this week, I want all of us to try eating meals in reverse order. Health tips say that those who eat their largest meals in the morning and then eat consecutively smaller meals as the day goes on will be more apt to burn the intake calories and lose weight. This makes sense...if most of my calories come at 6:30 at night...and I choose to watch TV the rest of the night I have no chance to lose those calories and they are then stored as FAT! Conversely if I eat a large breakfast, medium lunch and smaller dinner I will have the entire day to burn off those calories. This to me will mean getting up a bit earlier but I am willing to give it a shot (I normally skip breakfast...thats really bad... I guess?!) They also said that by eating more of your calories earlier in the day will prevent night time cravings of snacks (my weakness potato chips and ice-cream on the couch). If the night time munchies still come try to eat healthy or fight the habit all together. Last night I chose carrots and almonds for a night time snack.
Good luck guys, mind over belly!! We can do it!!
Post how you are doing and what you have found helps!!
