Keep it simple

By following some basic rules, having a healthy nutrition intake should not be difficult or time consuming.

For you or us to get an of your lifestyle and nutrition intake we need to have at least two full weeks of the types of food and fluid you put inside yourself.  Make sure your nutrition diary has the following headings:

DAYS OF THE WEEK - make sure its a 7 day week (Weekends still count)

TIMES - Everytime you eat or drink something, make sure you state the time!

COMMENT BOXES - place a free section or an empty box at the end of each day for some simple comments you can give yourself.  This is for your self-analysis.  Remember, 'KEEP IT SIMPLE', using simple sentences or bullet points.  For example: "Too much sugar today", "Today felt great", "Not enough water", "Bad headache", "Lots of fruit" etc.......

Dont forget too little is just as bad as too much & vice-versa.

BALANCE IS THE KEY

When you send us your nutrition diary we will then start to see what you maybe lacking in or having too much of and we will set out your first steps to making improvements.

FLUID - Look at our water information page for a better understanding of fluid intake & the reality of drinking 2 litres everyday.

COMMON SENSE - We all know that eating too many takeaway meals is bad for us especially without exercising.  So dont let your self get preassured into eating 5 portions of fruit or veg, drinking 2 litres of water, 4 to 5 servings of meats, poultry, seafood, 2 to 3 servings of dairy products, 6 to 8 servings of carbohydrates & as little sugary products as you can EVERYDAY!...its fine to have a day off. As long as that 1 day off does not turn into 3 or 4 days off in a row!

PORTIONS - Eating larger portions expands the stomach, simply cutting down the size of each meal will help take the feeling of hunger away & therefore train the stomach to cope with smaller amounts being spread more often throughout the day.

A good general rule is a single portion should not be much bigger than your own fist!
