Help Preparing Meals When Fasting to Lose Weight
Posted by admin on Sep 29, 2009
Meal plans are a good way to plan what are going to eat during the course of the week and as such can provide a predetermined and planned calorie intake helping you limit the food that you eat.
This can obviously be combined with fasting to lose weight as you can set the times and amounts of food you eat during each eating phase. The only problem is meal plans are a little complicated and it takes a good deal of nutritional know how to look at a meal plan and know exactly how much of each ingredient you will need.
An alternative method of keeping an upper limit on your calorie intake is instead to use a shopping list that only contains items that add up to your restricted calorie goal for the week. Therefore you use this food during the eating periods and once you have run out then you have to wait until your next trip to the store to restock
Why don’t people just make shopping lists for people instead of meal
plans? let people make what they want, when they want it. When the
food is out, you’re done eating until the next week.
This is great because it is a very simple way to keep calories in check and allows you to see how much food you will actually be eating that week and saves you time going back and forward to the store.
Granted it may be difficult to manage this level of preparation if you do the shopping for a larger family and you are the only one that practices fasting but try and keep your shopping separate and in a different place in the house.
