DIET - To Get The Most Out Of It

Did I Eat That - DIET

Is this what diet means to you?
Funnily, some of us seem unable to lose the extra weight despite the strict diet programme and ridiculously extreme exercise. 
Perhaps it is time for us to rethink the method of our diet. Here are some tips from Fooyoh.com to improve our diet.
1) Eat Actual Fruit - Ditch The Fruit Juice Drinking the fruit juice can actually do more harm than good. The sugar contain is doubled in the juice which brings the good taste of the juice.   According to AuthorityNutrition.com: 

a) fruit juice contains just as much sugar and calories as a sugary soft drink and sometimes even more;  b) fruit juice contains no fibre. 

 Whereas the actual fruit contains less sugar and has lots of benefits, one of which is beneficial to your teeth.
Here's a post on the goodness of Apple Juice.

Eat it, it is healthier.

2) Healthy Food Delivery If you belong to the old age group, food shopping might become quite a hassle for you. Get people to buy them for you instead. There are a lot of healthy food services nowadays (such as Dah Makan, The Lean Canteen, The Naked Lunchbox and a few others). Combine the food with regular exercise and your diet will be better. p/s: this tips is applicable to those with mobility problem.

3) Only Dark Chocolate Please Dark Chocolate contains less sugar and milk as compared to the milk chocolate. Meaning you are eating less fat and is higher in fibre too. It has more calcium and iron too (souce: AuthorityNutrition.com).

4) Smaller Plate Only You can trick your mind into believing that you are eating more by using a smaller plate. Use a smaller plate to cut the portion, reduce the fat intake and don't forget to exercise too.

Which one should you eat?

5) Be Your Own Cook Use fresh ingredients and ditch all processed foods as our bodies could do much better without the saturated fats, preservatives and lots of salt contained in the processed foods.
By preparing your own food using the fresh ingredients, you could plan your healthy meal, enhance your cooking skills and strengthen the family bond by cooking together. Not only you will have a much healthier meal, you will have a blissfully happy family too. 

The family that cook together stays together

I hope that we all stay strong by our DIET and do not quiver to any temptations. Remember - all that is sinful always look so delicious! Hehehe.

Which one suits you better?
