Your Weight Loss Eating Plan

Help You Choose The Best Time To Eat

With a proper weight loss eating plan you will not only get a jump start on your weight loss, but you will also start eating as a non-overweight person which is how you’ll keep the weight off.

A non-overweight person doesn’t wait until he or she feels starved before eating, nor does he or she eat without feeling hungry.

A non-overweight person has a "friendly relationship" with food. Sometimes people with weight problems have lost the sense of real hunger.

A good way of solving that problem and adjusting your eating habits is to use a weigh loss eating plan.

An eating plan will help you decide when to eat. It will give you the correct framework that you can fill with delicious, slimming meals of the right weight loss foods.

You will be eating small meals 5-6 times a day. People with weigh issues usually skip meals, eat 2 huge meals a day or snack all day long.

Your weight loss eating plan will help you balance your food intake. With this plan neither will you overeat, nor will you ever allow your stomach to rest.

When losing weight it’s important to never become too hungry, that will only put you at risk of overeating when you finally allow yourself to eat. Eating 5-6 times a day also keeps your metabolism constantly revved.

It’s also equally important to let your stomach rest between meals. A slight gnawing in your stomach is not always a sign that you should eat immediately.

Eating "by the clock" is a way to become aware of other reasons you may have for feeling hungry. As you will be giving the body the nutrients it needs on a regular basis you will know when you are “hungry” for something else, i.e. a hunger to satisfy an emotional need. This gives you an opportunity to ask yourself "What am I really hungry for right now? Am I stressed, feeling lonely, etc.?"

A good weight loss eating plan will also help you balance your blood sugar levels so that you don’t get sugar cravings because your blood sugar levels are too low.

Adjusting To a New Way of Eating

Your goal is to be eating 3 main meals a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner, and 2-3 snacks in between. The ideal is to eat every 3-4 hours. This is what a weight loss eating plan will help you reach.

You’ll start by first taking a look at your current "eating plan".
How often do you eat today?

I have created a work sheet that will help you get a better picture of how often you eat and also how you can find out what your best steps are to your new eating habits.

The worksheet is a part of "Your Kick Off Weight Loss Program" that I give as a Free eBook to subscribers to my newsletter "On The Weigh!").

Taking some time to do this will help you in the long run. When you become aware of how you sabotage yourself, you have won half the weight loss battle.

When you know how often you eat normally during the day, you can decide what changes you can make to adjust to a slimming way of eating by using your weight loss eating plan.

Adjust your way of eating in your own pace, but don’t forget you’re on a quest to get slimmer. Keep your focus on the benefits of meal planning, and not on the odd feeling of leaving your comfort zone.

When you have decided on what adjustments you will make, try to stick to them for a month or two before you adjust again. In this way you will give yourself the time to get used to and fine-tune the new regime.

This healthy diet plan will help you decide on how much to eat at each meal.

Do you find it difficult to eat more frequently during the day and following a weight loss eating plan? Don’t worry! Changing a habit always feels odd in the beginning. Start with the changes that are easiest for you to do. Take it in your own pace; the sooner you can get out of old sabotaging habits the better. The benefits of learning how to use tools like a weight loss eating plan are huge.

With you on the weigh,
