Four Tips From A Dietitian to Unlock Your Healthiest Life
I’m on a mission is to show people that a healthy lifestyle is easier and more attainable than they think. Here are a few tips I swear by to help my clients live their best and healthiest life.
“Two Hands on the Wheel”
If you’re in a situation with lots of snacks and appetizers around, I always say get your “two hands on the wheel” of your water glass or Vitapod bottle!
“Dinner and Done, Find Other Fun”
To avoid overindulging and overeating, get in the habit of being “dinner and done.” You will have greater success if you plan to eat a more filling dinner, then plan on how you’ll stop and find other activities to do.”
“A Healthy Outside Starts from the Inside”
When you eat better you start to feel better.
“Just two pounds at a time”
You’re going to be able to reach whatever healthy and realistic goal you set for yourself, but the more you focus on that big number, the worse your motivation will be. Focus on losing just two pounds at a time for greater motivation and follow-through.
“Water first, veggies most”
This is my mantra. A healthy diet starts with healthy hydration. It’s why I chose to partner with Vitapod in the first place. Their pods make water more delicious and even healthier – adding vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, and antioxidants with only 5 calories and zero sugar.
Be sure to check out my Hydra+ collaboration with Vitapod. These low calorie, sugar-free drinks make meeting your daily water goal a breeze.
