ADD
IT TO YOUR LIFE...
Water,
you need water. Try to add at least 4 more glasses of water
to your daily diet. The rule of thumb for water is 8 glasses
per day; and one extra for every ten pounds overweight you
are.
Fats,
you need to know about fats. There are different kinds of
fats. Some fats are better for you than others. A rule of
thumb on fats is, stay away from hydrogenated fats. These
are fats that solidify. They are in store bought cakes, cookies,
crackers, chips and even in bran muffins. Read the labels.
Choose fats that
are polyunsaturated or fats such as olive oil. And, eat some
fish to get some omega-3 fats. Carbohydrates - Are your immediate
fuel source. An average is about 55 percent of your diet
in carbohydrates. So, a rule of thumb is, figure your protein
grams, get around 25% fat per day, and the rest would be
in carbohydrates.
The heavier you
are, the more protein you need the less carbohydrates you
will need.
Fiber -
work up to getting 25 grams of Fiber per day
Protein -
averages about 20 percent.
Divide weight
by 2.2 and multiply that by .8 to get the kilograms.
For men it is
averages as one gram per each kilogram of weight. So, a man
would divide their weight in pounds 2.2 then multiply that
by .10
Fats -
try not to exceed more than 25 percent fat in your daily
diet. 30 is fine, too. That does not mean you can't have
a junk food fast food hamburger... it just means that if
you do eat that 55 percent fat burger that you are going
to have to cut down on other fat filled foods for the rest
of the day to balance it out.
Make exchanges
gradually. Suppose you drink whole milk...work down to 2
percent. Maybe replacing two of your cups per day until you
can completely change over. If you are on two percent milk,
work down to 1 percent.
Add bran to
your cereals for extra fiber. Do add it in your baking.
You need to balance
your diet with vegetables and fruits, too. Try adding different
colors to your plate. Maybe an orange yam, and some green
beans, to add color. The more variety of food colors, bring
more variety of vitamins.
Eat more
raw foods.
Remember, exchange
things, add things, and do it gradually and remember, live
all things in life in moderation and soon you will be bouncy
and vibrant and well on your way to living BEAUTIFULLY!
