Of 650 students who signed up last week to the goFIT聽challenge, 80 per cent聽said their number one interest in the goFIT challenge is to lose weight.
Terrific idea. But how? Most of us think we have to eat less in order to lose weight, but less what? Some people might say 鈥渃alories鈥� 鈥� but we don鈥檛 actually eat calories. We can鈥檛 go to a grocery store and buy calories. We eat food.
And if we just decide to 鈥渆at less food鈥� we may actually be deleting the stuff in food we really need: vitamins, minerals and those macronutrients protein, healthy fats and even some carbohydrates.
So how do we lose weight and still get what we need to stay healthy?
Eat more 鈥� by color
If we focus on putting rich color on our plate 鈥� swap out the whites and yellows for dark rich greens, reds, purples for instance 鈥� we can eat more food and will loose weight. We鈥檒l also feel more satisfied and get more of the nutrients we need to feel energised, reduce stress, be sharper.
