The attached video is a quick summary of the document from the live ZOOM Client Nutrition workshop on 8-21-21
I'm going to just bring up some key things about it. The Seven-Step guide to eating is one of the biggest things that you want to do.
It's not going to guarantee success, but it's going to make you be mindful. The biggest thing we want to do is to be mindful of the choices and make them a daily habit.
The first one out of everything is slow down, take it slow, and go at your own pace. Everybody's pace is going to be different. Everybody has a different knowledge base of the food and things that they're doing. Some people have been with me longer than others. So you need to go at your own pace, but you do want to be mindful about the decision and choices you make it.
So the seven steps basically, number one is to eat your vegetables. That's going to be one of the main roles that you want to do. Because when you're eating more vegetables, you're getting more roughage. You're getting more minerals. You're getting different colors. You're getting antioxidants and phytonutrients. So you want to get your vegetables in, and your plate should be half vegetables.
You want to get in your fats. This is nothing you don't know, but I want to put a document together that simplifies things out that you can take, and run with it. Eating healthy fats. Cholesterol is good. We'll talk about that because it's a myth. It's not the fact that your cholesterol is high. What it is, it's the type of cholesterol you're consuming.
You want to stay hydrated.
Try to make most of your meals at home. Make home meals, prepare, and prep.
Introduce one day a week, just as a non-meat day. You can get your protein, but you can take one day as a meatless day. It might be a meatless Wednesday, Tuesday, or Thursday; find a day of the week and make that a meatless day.
Reinvent your breakfast, reinvent your lunch. We have a tendency to eat the same thing for lunches and the same thing for breakfast. Change that up.
Look at the ingredients you consume. You know, a lot of things we're consuming have a lot of salt, a lot of sugar. We really got to take some time and look at our, look at the labels.
Take advantage of the resource, make a copy of it, and keep it available in your kitchen as a reminder and also a quick go-to guide.
Enjoy!!
