100 Smart Diet Tips

February 27th, 2008

I saw the best article today which gave readers the 100 smartest diet tips out there today. Good deal! All the tips are from registered dieticians whose job it is to turn complex nutrition research into doable plans for real people. Sweet…I’m a real person! Bring on the tips! Here are the top five tips on the big list:

1. Add just one fruit or veggie serving daily. Get comfortable with that, and then add an extra serving until you reach 8 to 10 a day.

2. Eat at least two servings of a fruit or veggie at every meal.

3. Resolve never to supersize your food portions — unless you want to supersize your clothes.

4. Make eating purposeful, not mindless. Whenever you put food in your mouth, peel it, unwrap it, plate it and sit. Engage all of the senses in the pleasure of nourishing your body.

5. Start eating a big breakfast. It helps you eat fewer total calories throughout the day.
