What Should I Eat To Lose Weight?

What should I eat to lose weight? 


We get asked this or a variation of this question almost everyday. However, that question is too broad and general. What are you currently eating? What do foods do you like? What foods can you not do without? How does your schedule fit and affect your eating habits? 


These are all questions that first need looked at. Yes, we could give you a nutrition plan that has all healthy foods and meals layed out for you, but if you don't like them or they don't fit right for you it's not going to work. Sure you may follow it for a few days, maybe even a week or so, but soon you will be back to your old ways. This is the biggest problem with crash and fad diet programs.


Rather we like to make small changes that fit you over a course time. This approach always has the most success. Yes a crash diet may drop some quick pounds, but what happens when you stop?


So here are three tips for eating right all the time:
1. Always include a protein
2. Always include a fruit or vegetable
3. Avoid processed foods as much as possible


So the next time you are thinking about starting a new diet or some look for some other quick fix. Ask yourself, "Am I doing the above three things all the when I eat?" Chances are no.
