Food, why it's more than half the battle to healthy....

So you're exercising all the time but your weight isn't budging....are you addressing what you are eating? More times than not, no one wants to get real with the food they are putting into their body, or they are under the impression that they can eat whatever they want because they do exercise. No and no. What you fuel your body with is 80% of the puzzle to healthy. Yes 80%! If the scale isn't budging for you or you're getting stronger with all that exercise but see no definition in your body, it's the food you are eating, whether you like it or not. If you want to live a healthy lifestyle and see those results, food absolutely has to be apart of the equation. And the best way to get an idea where you might need some "food tweeking" in your diet is to food journal for one week. Write it all down, drinks too and see where it is you're overeating or making poor choices. Often portion control is the culprit but poor choices are right up there! The food journal will also reveal your habits and perhaps the time of day you have most difficulty with when making good food choices. After you look over your journal you can figure out how many calories you need to consume each day to keep you energized and your body working efficiently. Meeting just once with a food coach or a nutritionist will optimize the information you can gain from your food journal, as well figure out your calorie count for your lifestyle. Listen up, don't waste all that exercising with poor food choices. Why waste your time like that? Canceling out a gratifying workout for overeating is not worth the weight, Ya dig?
