On today’s episode, I’m sharing your diet tips, yes the Live Lean Nation has spoken. Here is a list of your top 16 easiest diet fixes ever.
Over the last 4 years, I’ve been sharing my workouts, recipes, fitness tips, and nutrition strategies that I’ve used to transform my health and physique.
So for this episode, I reached out to you on my Snapchat (BradGouthro), Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter and asked what are the easiest and most sustainable steps that you’ve taken to fix your diet.
I received a lot of response, so thank you for responding with all your tips.
Add lemon or fruit to your water, or if you like carbonation, drink seltzer. Also buy a good water bottle to keep filled. Also check out my blog post: 5 Ways to Drink More Water.
Therefore you’ll resist if you know you have a party coming up. Or split up your cheat meals by having a smaller one mid week, then another smaller one on the weekend. Or have a little cheat (a few bites) every day rather than a major cheat day. Find out what works for you.
You may be shocked with the number of calories or the amount of sugar you’re eating. This will also give you a baseline to begin improving. Check out my meal planner software to help you journal and count your calories and macros.
People often get bored when eating clean because they keep eating the same few foods. There are hundreds of fruits and vegetables. Explore. Here’s how to make your vegetables taste delicious.
Your willpower will be tempted. And it takes a lot more effort to go out for junk food than it does to walk into your kitchen. Make it hard on yourself.
Foods filled with artificial sweeteners may be making you hungrier.
Add a little water, meat, and vegetables, set to low, come home from work and your house smells amazing and the food taste even better! Here’s one of my favorite delicious slow cooker recipes.
Experiment with swapping out breads, pastas, french fries, with lettuce wraps, zucchini/carrot/and sweet potato pasta. Go check out my blog for a full list of food swaps.
You won’t even know you’re getting in your vegetables.
For example, a grocery list of foods from pre-selected recipes. This means you’ll be sticking to the outside of the aisles for most of the food at the grocery store, and you’ll actually know how to prepare the food when you get home since you have recipes for them. No more rotting food in the fridge.
Learning to cook is a life skill we all need to learn. Restaurants are meant for special occasions, your kitchen is meant for everyday living.
Then when you’re tempted, review it so you never want to go back.
Such a simple one but so effective.
Daily progress, not perfection. Cold turkey works for some but not the majority. Cut back every day on bad habits that you need to eliminate. Don’t get overwhelmed by trying to quit everything day 1.
Food and water nourishes your body, not soda and fruit juices.
And finally, one of the most important of all…
It’s all about mindset. We eat to live, we don’t live to eat. Think about it.
