Prva grupa ne ostavlja prostor za neuspeh, pa krene jako, a to je u ovom slučaju izgladnjivanje.

Jednostavna priča, što manje jedete, manje ćete jesti, pa kilogrami (voda) sami krenu na dole.

Nakon početne euforije koja može da traje i do nekoliko meseci, počinju problemi.

Loše se osećate, preterano se znojite, vidite "zvezde", a blago mantanje u glavi postalo je uobičajeno stanje, nije ni čudo jer ste gladni.

Druga grupa odluči se na isparvan postupak, pa natrpaju frižider zdravim namirnicama, jajima, avokadom, namazom od badema, orašastim plodovima i ostalom "zdravom" hranom.

Ako imaju nalepnicu "bio" još bolje.

Jutra započinju obilnom kajganom i tostom (integralnim, naravno), a u pauzi do ručka grickaju orašaste plodove.

Zatim sledi ručak koji je obilno začinjen i pun žitarica, ali i dezert.

Crna čokolada je zdrava, pa zašto umesto dva reda ne bi pojeli tri?

I posle se pitaju zašto ne mršave.

U prvom slučaju vaše telo je u blagom šoku, došli je do određene težine gde je sve stagniralo, a kako bi sagorevali kalorije treba da ih i unesete.

Druga opcija predstavlja jednu od najčešćih zabluda. Istina neke su namirnice zdrave, ali u kojim količinama.

Šaka orašastih plodova ima gotovo 300 kalorija, a preporučeni dnevni unos je oko 2.000.

Razmislite, a ove slike će vam pomoći u tome, samo treba da primetite razliku:

 

Same calories BUT 9x the volume on the left! ? Follow my girl @justget.fit for more info like this and plenty of meal prep ideas ❤️ Info on this post below: . Calorie dense foods (like nuts + dried fruits) can be a convenient way to snack when you're on the go, but, in my experience they can be easy to overeat. They also don't contain nearly as much protein as people think. The nuts + dried fruit on the right are from a single serving snack pack I bought at the grocery store. The pack contained almonds, macadamian nuts, Brazil nuts and dried fruit (although it's hard to see in the picture) The package the nuts + fruits stated: 517 calories: 43C/34F/10P . 90% of the time I prefer more volume because, it helps with satiety, reduces feelings of deprivation and leads to higher success rates and compliance when trying to stick with reduced calories. #justgetfitcarbs . My meal on the left includes: 1 whole egg, 1 egg white, 1 bell pepper, 2 laughing cow cheese wedges, 3 small slices of bread, 2 Tbsp. humus + 90 grams avocado. 520: 43C/26F/28P . The point of this isn't to scare you into avoiding nuts. It's just good to keep in mind: the serving size and type of nuts and dried fruit you consume. Just like volume eating isn't for everyone, big handfuls of nuts aren't for everyone so do you, boo. ♥ . . . . . . . . #volumeeating #calories #portioncontrol #eatright #fuelyourbody #healthyrecipe #flexiblediet #fbf @JustGet.Fit #weightlossfood #fillingandhealthy#weightwatchers #eeeeats #cleaneating #youarewhatyoueat #caloriecounting #healthyfood #weightloss #flexibledieting #eatwelllivewell #iifym #weightlossmotivation #vegetarian #nutrition #vegetarianrecipes #mealprep #mealprepmonday #caloriecounting #fitfood #healthyfats

Similar volume, different calories! ❤️ Both meals are good for you, I’m just pointing out differences to either save you calories or add more calories if you need more for the day ? Info below: . Lower Calorie Meal: 1 spiralized zucchini 1 cup cherry tomatoes 1 cup broccoli 1 cup marinara sauce 3.5 oz wild king salmon . Higher Calorie Meal: 1 1/2 spiralized sweet potatoes 9 olives 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes 1 cup broccoli 1 cup marinara sauce 5 oz wild king salmon . Inspired by @movingdietitian . To save calories: Do veggies noodles instead of sweet potato or pasta. Watch your protein serving. Skip the extra olives or extra fats for more veggies. #mealprepmonday #mealdiary #fooddiary #mealprep #mealprepideas #cleaneating #fitnessmeals #food #foodporn #healthyfood #gymfood #fastfood #fitfoodporn #cleaneats #macros #cleaneating #foodprep #foodforfuel #mealpreponfleek #fitfoodporn #foodfacts #caloriecounting

Spot the difference ? Kind of crazy how small changes can really add up! ? Whether you want to add more calories or eat less, here is an example & some of my tips: . Lower cal meal: 2 eggs + 2 egg whites scrambled 1 piece Ezekiel toast 1/2 an avocado 1 honey crisp apple . Higher cal meal: 4 eggs + 2 egg whites scrambled 1 piece Ezekiel toast 1 whole avocado 1 honey crisp apple 2 tbsp peanut butter . Tips to save calories: Swap out some eggs for egg whites (egg whites are only 17 calories per one) Don’t pack on too much fat (1/2 or 1/4 an avocado is plenty for this meal!) Even though there’s no coffee displayed, watch out for the extra oils or creamer which can add calories too. .

Can you spot the difference? Here’s a great example of how you can customize your meal to meet your caloric goals ? . 2 Things to think about when determining your meal calories (or portion size) 1 - How many meals am I eating today? 2 - What is my calorie total for the day? That should determine around what amount of calories you eat in one meal. . Tips for lowering calories: ⁃Sub in more veggies instead of carbs! I.e. lower calorie salad has triple the tomatoes and double the bell peppers but half the beans. ? - Watch the healthy fats. The right amount of healthy fats are key but the calories add up quick. Higher calorie salad has triple the hummus, additional 1 tbsp olive oil & additional 1/4 avocado. - Find an appropriate amount of protein. 3/4 a cup is equal to about 4oz. . Lower calorie salad: 3 cups spinach 4oz chicken 1 1/2 cups tomatoes 1/2 cup black beans 1 yellow bell pepper 1 tbsp hummus 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar 2 mini bell peppers . Higher calorie salad: 3 cups spinach 6oz chicken 1/2 cups tomatoes 1 cup black beans 1/2 yellow bell pepper 3 tbsp hummus 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar 1 mini bell peppers . --- Inspired by the talented @movingdietitian . --- #mealprepmonday #mealdiary #fooddiary #mealprep #mealprepideas #cleaneating #fitnessmeals #food #foodporn #healthyfood #gymfood #fastfood #fitfoodporn #cleaneats #macros #cleaneating #foodprep #foodforfuel #mealpreponfleek #fitfoodporn #foodfacts #caloriecounting
