I found out that people consume alot of carbohydrates probably ti fill there belle or to satisfy there hunger. thats great because it part of the diet.
Hint:
When you are planning, ordering, or preparing a meal, start with
carbohydrate counting. Most of your carbohydrates should come from
things like whole grain products, real fruits and vegetables, and beans.
Once you have a satisfactory number of carbohydrates on your plate,
fill in the rest of your meal to fit the Plate Method.
Challenge: For the next 27 days, count your
carbohydrates. Limit your intake of refined carbohydrates (white
bread, white pasta, white flour and many salty snack foods) – these
foods have very little or no fiber and many important nutrients have
been “refined” out of them. Limit sugary foods and beverages like soda
(pop or coke depending on where you are from , candy, and Gatorade. Create an environment within your body for optimal health.
Exercise hint.
You will be keeping track of your heart rate, your muscular fitness,
your flexibility, and your estimated body composition. Also keep track
of any other measurements that reflect your goals. For example, weight,
bicep circumference, jump reach, etc.press ups
Challenge: Measure your fitness level, record your results, track your progress.
Advanced Challenge: If you are training
for an event or consider yourself and intermediate or advanced
exerciser/athlete, measure your fitness level using parameters that
better fit with your goals. For example, if your goal is to run an
8-minute mile, measure your mile time today, your heart rate before,
directly after, and 1 minute post your 1 mile run. Keeping track of your
heart rate recovery is a good measure of heart health.
Challenge: Do something (non food related) for yourself today. Buy yourself flowers, watch the sun set, sit outside for lunch. #mefirst
