Think-Thin:
U want a long term weight loss?..
An important thing is to start thinking like
a thin person. How do thin people think and behave? They eat when they are
hungry and stop when their appetite is satisfied. They enjoy their food and eat
what they like – often the same foods that you love and crave – but the bid
difference is that the portions they eat are typically small. They opt for
quality, not quantity, a morsel of really good cheese rather than a big lump of
the rubbery, low-fat, processed variety. They appreciate and taste their food something
we should all do because eating is one of life’s great pleasures – maximising
enjoyment, not kilojoules. Make every thing you eat the best quality you can
afford, because when the focus is on taste, rather than amount you are less
likely to overeat.
How big should your protions be? Here a handy rule of thumb;
when it comes to a mea, the carbohydrate (such as couscous, rice, pasta or
potato) and protein (such as meat, chicken or fish) portions on your plate
should each not be any larger than the size of your clenched fist; so that’s a
fist of carbohydrate and a fist of protein, Consider that the average serving
is often two or three times larger than that; this might not seem much for an
entire meal.
Your stomach is a muscle that is roughly the size of your
fist, and this amount fills it nicely. Many of us continually stretch and
overstretch our stomach by eating huge portions at a sitting, which is why the
capacity of the stomach of an overweight or obese person has been shown to be
much larger than that of a lean person. Your stomach will take time to return
to its normal size. You will be hungry for a few weeks as your system adjusts
to your new regime of smaller portions. That thought should not make you feel
anxious, because downsizing your portions will eventually come to feel normal
as you learn to eat until you are comfortable, never till you are bloated or
full.
