Portion Control
Many health and fitness professionals agree that the way to a better body overall is to concentrate on what you put in your mouth because if 85% of your weight relies on portion control and only 15% of your weight is attributed to exercise, eating sensibly will undoubtably begin to change your body. I know how difficult it is to give up any loved food – mashed potatoes, bread of all kinds, pasta and rice, yummy desserts like apple fritters, pie and cake…Cutting back on those foods that pack on the pounds is easier when you remember that it is the smidgens that count, the little things you do every meal, every day that makes a difference. Pay attention, read the labels and enjoy the new body that will begin to reveal itself in just a few days. Keep at it!
