Found this great article that hit the core for me and I am sure for many others. Often people say that do not have time to eat healthy..but one really does. Just change your though process and make it a priority.
To continue the weight loss process you need to have good food available and a healthy attitude
At the beginning of the week take some time to think through your week-meetings, lunchtime, cooking time. Then try to plan the healthy meals that will be the easiest to prepare according to your schedule.
Market time consider the healthier choices. Fresh greens and fruit that is already precut and cleaned. Frozen prepared means that are the lowest in sodium, fat etc-check the labels.
In some cases, one can call ahead at the local market to order their deli choices. Now it is even possible to order you whole weeks worth of food on-line and have it delivered.
Use your slow cooker, and your microwave.
When you do cook, if possible double the recipe and then freeze in containers for a meal latter in the week.
Exercise: yes all, I am sorry to say that we still have to keep moving. Our bodies are made to move, walk, run, workout, to keep us healthy.
Think about meetings or outings at bowling alley, park, swimming pool. GET RID of the "all or nothing attitude" .Ever little bit of movement that you do during the day is a plus.
STRESS Yes my friends stress is still with us, everyday. It can lead to muscle tension, less sleep, and chronic illness.
One of the easiest ways to help relieve stress is breathing. Stretching is also good, and of course
getting enough sleep. Do not skip sleep. Try to stay on a schedule to get at least 7 to 8 hours a night. Our bodies need this to keep the mind active and alert so one can cope with the day to day.
