enough so I have left-overs for lunch the next day, and when
all else fails, I prep a “buffet” for lunches: hummus, carrots,
cucumber, a small salad with an egg and nuts, etc. Rather than
sitting around watching TV at night, this is my time to shine!
Building You A Better Smile
Pack your fridge and pantry.
If all you have at home is goodness, then that’s what you will
eat. Shop wisely, do a big shopping spree with lots of fresh
foods and healthy snacks, and eat well every time!
Change your bowl + 10-minute rule.
Use a smaller bowl for eating soups and stews, and a small
side plate for eating your dinners. Sometimes we’re so hungry
that we fill up a large plate and feel like we need to eat
everything that’s on it, even if we’re full. In addition, follow
the 10-minute rule: Once you’ve finished your meal, if you
still feel hungry, wait 10 minutes and see how your body
feels after that time... If you’re still hungry after that time,
then go ahead and serve yourself a bit more. Often all it takes
is 10-minutes more for your brain to reach the signal that
you’ve eaten.
Don’t wait until you’re starving!
This is where smaller meals come in handy, and work well for
many people. And if you’re on the run, make sure you carry
some roasted seeds or a healthy granola bar in your pocket,
rather than waiting until you get home to devour a dinosaur!

Body image.
How do you see yourself? Are you really overweight and
unable to do simple tasks, like tying your shoes or going
up a flight of stairs, without breathing heavily? Or is it that
you’re trying to fit into those pants from 20 years ago? Body
image is often not analyzed, and plays a big role in weight
happiness. How you feel inside, mentally and emotionally,
really matter. See where your lifestyle is lacking and focus
on its strengths. It’s all about balance and being happy with
yourself – inside and out.
Bottom line: Balancing weight loss is a perfect
combination of eating healthy, consuming enough calories
to satisfy your body’s needs, and expelling energy. If you’re
sitting around all day long, don’t expect to lose weight by
just eating salads! Fill your day with some form of exercise –
you don’t have to join a gym; even a walk around the block,
a couple of times per day, will help get the ‘juices’ flowing,
bring your spirits up, and help you see results. Don’t make
resolutions, create habits.•
