Food Diary and Fat Loss

So, do you have 1 or 2 days of your food diary? When you look at it, does it make you realize a few things? Chances are your meals are unbalanced and heavy on the carbohydrates. Carbs are important, you just need the right proportions. One other thing that you may notice from your food diary is that you eat little during the day and a lot at night. How about vegetables? Did you eat them? (Now I sound like my mother). Well, let's talk about veggies. Why are they so important? Aside from giving you vitamins and minerals and antioxidants, they are a great source of fiber. And you may not know this but fiber is one of the things that can reduce your caloric intake. Fiber will reduce the speed at which you digest your food thus keeping you full a little longer.

With all this said, you may need to increase your intake of veggies. You can start lunch and dinner with a salad. You can also eat a veggies in an egg white omelette for breakfast. Try this for a few days and see if it make a difference in your food intake.
