Gas Station Nutrition
Fat loss for women can be simple and effective when you are equipped with the right information and most importantly a solid plan to blowtorch unwanted body fat.
EAT SMALL, BALANCED MEALS EVERY 2-3 HOURS.
As simple as that strategy sounds, skipping meals is the #1 fat loss mistake that many women make. Eating frequently is critical to turbo charging your metabolism for quick and effective fat loss. How many times have you gone hours without eating only to inhale a large amount of some unhealthy choice when your body started to scream at you for food?
Prepare, pack, and carry your own meals and snacks. These meals should combine lean protein, healthy fats, fruit, vegetables, whole grains, and low fat dairy. Not every meal has to have each component but protein and fruits or vegetables are the building blocks for each meal and snack.
If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. It’s that simple. You can either be prepared or stand by as another year passes without you achieving your personal fat loss goals. It’s impossible to out train poor nutrition so don’t even think that hours on the treadmill or running trail can make up for poor nutrition.
There are times when even the most fitness-minded woman can find herself with a growling stomach and no food on hand. It happened to me this morning.
Know where to get what you need in a hurry. You see most of us are in the same neighborhoods day after day so it only takes a little effort to learn which places you can quickly get healthy meals and snacks. Some of my favorite places to get food that falls into the nutrition for fat loss category are:
Kroger’s: Salad Bar
McDonald’s: Fruit & Yogurt Parfait
Jack in the Box: Chicken Fajita Pita
Chik-Fil-A: Grilled Chicken Sandwich
Starbucks: Power Protein Plate
But today’s quick fix came from the most unlikely place… THE GAS STATION.
That’s right today’s healthy snack was 1 Red Delicious apple and cashews from my local gas station. The best part is I got that healthy snack for less than $2.
