College Eating Tip #1
>> Friday, January 2, 2009
Ok so college life is great all you can eat buffets, soda, junk food, pizza, chinese take out and the list goes on. It seems really great.. which it kinda is .. but at the same time its bad for your waistline and your health. I know I know.. this is what I always hear: "we're still young its ok"; "I have a fast metabolism". But it's really not ok to be eating so inconsistently and unhealithly. If you want to avoid getting the freshman 15 or basically gaining weight, you have to step up and watch what your eating. Not to say that you have to give up all of your favorite foods.
Time and time again.. the thing about college life is that its not very consistent,, one day you might be too busy to eat or have too many meetings and things to attend to. So we say its ok to skip meals. Unfortunately this doesn't really help us to lose weight or our health in the long run. It can actually contribute to us gaining more weight because we overeat at our next meal. Or we begin to snack on foods.
So don't skip meals!! Especially breakfast: "Some people skip breakfast in an effort to lose weight, but the practice is more likely to cause weight gain than weight loss. Skipping breakfast is strongly linked to the development of obesity. According to research, skipping meals, especially breakfast, can actually make weight control more difficult. Breakfast skippers tend to eat more food than usual at the next meal or nibble on high-calorie snacks to stave off hunger. Several studies suggest that people tend to accumulate more body fat when they eat fewer, larger meals than when they eat the same number of calories in smaller, more frequent meals."
Eat three meals a day at a consistent time. "Eating regular meals keeps you from getting hungry and your body from experiencing "intermittent starvation," which in turn promotes storing rather than burning calories. Breakfast is the most important meal."
Tips:
Breakfast made easy with the Herbalife formula 1 shake, it is a complete and nutritional balanced meal. It can be used to replace any meal. It's fast and you can pretty much make it anywhere. So instead of skipping a meal just drink a shake. or just drink it for breakfast. It's a great way to start off your mornings. Plus it comes in 7 diff flavors!!
Get your friends together to eat meals on a consistent schedule every day. That way you don't have to eat alone, and it makes people skip meals less. This is something that I do.. since it's just easier to have a schedule to eat instead of skippng meals.
