ASHLEIGH FELTHAM with large fries and a coke . Plan your day to include three main meals and two snacks made from a quarter of protein like meats , eggs , dairy or alternative like soy yoghurt with a second quarter from whole grain carbohydrates and the rest from vegetables and or fruit . This mix is the perfect combination for feeling fuller for longer and feeling like you can get the most out of your day .
2 . Eat every 3-4 hours
Eating regularly can help your body have a healthy metabolism or the way energy is burned in your body . Eating with large periods in between can actually make your body slow down how quickly it uses energy and over the long term can make you put on weight !
3 . Enjoy eating
Take the time to enjoy eating . This means stop driving ! Maybe pack a picnic rug and select somewhere nice to enjoy the scenery around you . Taking the time to appreciate the meal or snack you are eating can not only decrease the likelihood of an upset stomach or food everywhere in the car but you will be more aware when your body has had enough to eat .
