It’s the week 4 of the HABIT CHALLENGE. I am getting along well, how are you doing? You don’t have to be perfect just keep on trying and progressing.
This week is all about portion sizes, it’s not easy but gradually you can get through. Before my weight loss journey, I ate large (huge) portions of food, veggies, biscuits and all. Don’t say that because it's apple, you can eat 3. Yes apple is fruit and good for the body but it is only okay to eat
half an apple or 1 not a basket of it because it is healthy. Portion control is very important both for those trying to lose or gain weight. Right now I take portion control very serious. Although I started very drastically, from a large plate of rice to 4 tablespoon of rice as a meal, it was not fun and it frustrated me so much. This is how to go about it, gradually adjust the quantity you eat or change the size of your plate.
Try eating one serving instead of five (5) servings. You don’t want to keep gaining weight if you are trying to lose weight, feeling depressed and out of control. I have been there so I can relate to that. Instead of eating 5 cookies at a go, eat one serving which is just 1 cookie.
Don’t try to move from eating huge portions of fast food to eating salad, it will back fire on you, gradually change it. Portion your meals the way you will eat them, even if you are freezing them, try and portion it. Like meat, fish, cooked meal, snack and all.
It is not easy, it has never been easy but it is worth doing. Try to listen to your stomach, because it knows when you are full. Even if you are eating out, watch your portion, divide the meal into 2 parts and ask them to pack the rest in a take away plate for you. If you have already taken control of your portion try eating more veggy than carb, if you still struggling with your portion, I suggest you change your big plate to a smaller one.
Have a lovely week.
