The 7-day eating plan can become a healthy lifetime eating style. It can help you launch a new and healthy eating routine. Any eating plan should be individualized. Use this menu as a guideline for your own favorite foods. The following dietary schedule is beneficial and light. Remember, the purpose of these seven days is to enjoy food and improve overall health, and even to lose a pound or two without food deprivation.
An everyday mantra is to eat in moderation. Sometimes, when you’re less hungry, you may eat smaller portions or even eat only half the food I list for any meal (for example, eat only a salad and skip the chicken and vegetables or vice versa). If you eat bread, bread should have no yeast or sugar, and should be all natural.
Some of us have a habit of skipping breakfast, which can lead to health consequences. Do an experiment. For two weeks, eat breakfast and track your energy level on a scale of 1-10 each day.
Breakfast and lunch should both be substantial and delicious.
Try to eat dinner fairly early, at least three hours before bedtime. Large dinners have a great risk of leading to excess weight. After a light dinner and a sweet and restful night, you may wake up with a ravenous appetite.
