Diet & Weight Loss Tips for Quick Weight Loss Results

This is the First Day of the rest of your Diet Life...

Are you missing the foods that you love in a 'big weigh' while watching your daily diet? Then you just may hug this Diet Tip!

Grab a cup of hot tea, something to write with and a sheet of paper. Next, write down all your favorite foods.

Make five columns on your sheet of paper. We'll call these 'The Basic Food Groups."  Now, try to fit your favorite foods into the columns as best as you can. Don't worry if those cupcakes don't fit. We have a tip for that and other items that might not seem to fit.

Diet Tips - Fitting Your Favorite Foods Into Your Daily Diet

The purpose of this exercise is to identify foods that you love and fit them into your daily diet without causing a Diet Disaster. What did you have to eat today? Did these foods fit into the food groups (fruits, vegetables, proteins - including nuts and eggs, dairy and grains)?

Now - about those cupcakes, cookies, cakes, donuts, muffins and so forth... There is another element in the daily diet that we need: FAT. So again, don't panic if all your favorites didn't fit into the Daily Food Groups.

Examples of how a healthy diet might look are listed on the first line in the chart below. The second line contains examples of what may be 'favorite foods' that contain fat, yet also contain ingredients that are healthy.
