Should I get more variety?
I have read I need to have 30 different plants a week?
Great questions.
When it comes to your diet / nutrition plan…
You have to make it
1) easy
2) convenient
And if you look at studies in people who’ve kept the weight off for more than 10 months ?
Sure, they often have support and a community..
But the one they are is quite, well, boring.
“What’s for breakfast?” They are asked.
Their responses go like this..
“Porridge on Monday, porridge on Tuesday, porridge on Wednesday”
Or
“Poached eggs on toast Monday, poached on toast on Tuesday, poached egg on toast on Wednesday”
Sure, you can have variety.
I mean, some days I like mackerel in olive oil. Other days? I like mackerel in tikka sauce. Variety is the spice of life, right? I joke.
In all seriousness, change it up as you wish, but the key thing?
1) does it make it convenient to stick to?
2) does it make you life easy or hard?
And if you want to get more plants in your diet?
Consider this:
- Pre cut veggies so they are easy to grab
- Fill your fruit bowl
- Use frozen berries (I like to add them to my yoghurt to make a ‘sauce’)
- Use herbs and spices (they all count)
For me, I like to keep my breakfast and lunch pretty samey – something egg, yoghurt, mackerel based. Then in the evening, I can be more flexible with the kids.
