Before you start panicking and thinking you will be eating nothing but lettuce and soup, let me assure you that by the time you are done reading this article you will be saying to yourself why you didn’t start this sooner.

Eating right to lose weight is not hard it just takes some discipline and some minor life changes. You will need to get out of the habit of eating three huge meals. This is step one. From now on you will eat six smaller meals throughout your day. You should consume one meal every two and a half to three hours each and every day for six meals daily. Doing this turns your body into a fat burning machine. Why? Because your metabolism is always running. Your metabolism is the rate at which your body burns fat.

Now that you know how many meals you are having and how often you will be eating them, the next step is to know exactly what you will be eating. Each meal will be broken down into three categories, protein, carbohydrates and green vegetables. Your protein sources should be lean meats, fish, poultry, and eggs. Your carbohydrates sources should be brown rice, whole or multi-grain breads and cereals, potatoes and fruits. Your green vegetables should be just that, green, in other words, spinach, broccoli, and asparagus to name a few.

The only thing left is to know how much of each category should be on your plate. This is a lot easier then you think and usually one of the biggest reasons why a lot of diet fads fail. Most diet plans make you measure things out on a scale or use some type of point system. When you eat a healthy nutrition plan following these suggestions a portion size is the same size as your clenched fist. Go ahead and make a fist. That is how much of a portion size you can have for each category. You will be surprised to see just how much food you get to eat.

Now incorporate everything you have learned in this article into a healthy plan and you will be well on your weight to hitting your weight loss goal. I recommend a couple of tips. First prepare all of your meals in advance for the upcoming week. It will help speed things up and keep you on top of your game. The second tip I recommend is for you to write everything down. Keep a daily diary of what you ate, when you ate it, what your starting weight was for the week and so on. This way you can track your progress and see which weeks you did better and why. Also studies have shown when you write things down your success rate goes way up, and success is what we are after here.
