RUNYourLife’s Coaching Principals For Losing Weight

  1. Eat consistently - when you're hungry which typically will be between every 3-4 hours
  2. Eat a big breakfast - if you're going to add in any habits add in taking the time to eat breakfast
  3. Allow yourself simple pleasures - if you try and cut out all food that is bad for you you're going to go crazy, allow yourself some treats but after you've had your main meals
  4. Eat more whole foods - stick to the grocery list, the less desirable foods you have in your home the more likely you are to eat the good ones which will give you more energy and help you lose fat
  5. It's not about having the will power - it's about planning ahead so you don't make it difficult on yourself
  6. Make sleep a priority - the more energy you have the more you are able to plan ahead, stick to the plan and keep planning!
  7. Eat slowly - the signals in our brains telling us we are hungry are not only very real but they are very important, if you take your time to enjoy your meal you'll understand what it means to feel comfortably full and refrain from overeating
  8. Avoid temptation - have a plan, if you're going to a BBQ bring your own food, if you're going to a party with unhealthy appetizers eat diner before you leave your home, buy only the necessary foods you are going to eat during the week
  9. Keep it simple - buy pre-marinated meats, cut up veggies and homemade sauces so it's easier for you to put together
  10. Home Work - Keep a food log and share your wins in the Facebook group!
