The
One-Stop Diet Shop
On
a diet? If so, it may help in a tremendous
way to turn your home into a one-stop diet
shop. Here are a few diet-wise solutions
to enhance your weight loss experience:
Kitchen:
This is your Diet Work Center and the most
important room in your home when it comes
to weight loss. The ideal kitchen is a healthy,
warm, welcoming kitchen that appeals to
all appetites. The key is to add excitement
and to centerpiece that excitement around
healthy foods. Here are a few Diet-Winning
tips:
Grab
a few clear containers next time you go
shopping. Fill the containers with healthy
foods that keep well such as dried fruits,
nuts - shelled or unshelled, sunflower seeds
and pumpkin seeds and place them about your
kitchen OR group them together. Or,
if you feel too tempted with ready-treats
on hand, fill the clear containers with
dried beans, noodles and lentils for the
healthy cook to use (YES, the healthy cook
is YOU!).
A
bowl or basket of fresh fruit on the counter
is not only pretty, it's healthy and odds
are, when a snack-attack hits, you'll be
more apt to grab the fresh fruit than to
bake a batch of something that tastes really
yummy, but is crummy for your diet plan.
Bath:
Turn your bath into a spa. Containers
of bubblebath, bottle of relaxing oils,
and a cool eye mask are just a few items
to enhance your relaxation experience. Bring
on the grapes and dancing men!
Bedroom:
Avoid bringing treats and foods into the
bedroom because your mind may associate
the bedroom with a need for food. Reserve
this room for a well-rested night, play
time, and perhaps a bit of reading - but
not particularly in that order.
Television
Room:
Again, use the basket of fruit idea for
this room so that you'll reach for the fruit
rather than a Diet Rattlesnake. Keep some
packets of light popcorn on hand, or use
an hot air-popper for an even lighter batch
of popcorn. Spray with no-calorie butter
spray and you're in Diet Heaven!
