The Power of 5 Breakfast ~ Lunch ~ Dinner & Snacks. All Important, choose wisely …
The Power of 5 Healthy Eating is so important … however, maintaining a balanced diet constitutes the healthiest lifestyle. Dr. Bernstein and I prefer using the word “lifestyle,” because it suggests the ways in which you will change forever. People “go on” diets and then “go off” diets. We promote a lifestyle that will work, will be energizing and is easy enough to do.
Let me mention some general eating rules … easy as 1,2,3 …
1) Eat ALL meals on small plates
2) Use a salad fork instead of a regular fork…bites will be smaller (same with spoons)
3) Drink non-caloric beverage, water with each meal
And one more thing … utilize the following list of unlimited vegetables up to 2 cups per lunch and dinner as well as to munch on between meals.
