Nutrition Month Week 5: Make it Stick!

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

Nutrition Month Week 5 Make It Stick

Lack of time, eating out, holidays, stress? We all have challenges that can sidetrack our healthy eating plans. Here are some strategies to help your small changes stick.

Dietitian Pro Tips

√ Short on time? Be prepared with nourishing grab ‘n’ go foods, like yogurt, nuts and fruit.

Eating well doesn’t need to take a lot of time. A little planning helps you eat healthy, even on the run:

  • Stock your kitchen with good-for-you snacks, like veggies, fruit, yogurt, cheese, hard-boiled eggs, seeds and whole grain crackers.

  • Cook big batches of soup, stew or chili on weekends, then take a welcome cooking break on busy weekdays.

  • Cook once. Eat twice. Make more food than you need for one meal and reinvent it for another.

  • Shop for healthier convenience foods, such as frozen or pre-cut vegetables, plain frozen fish fillets, shredded cheese and canned lentils.

√  Stressed? Bored? Sad? Eating for reasons other than hunger can lead to mindless munching.

√  Need to get back on your healthy-eating track? A dietitian can help!

√  Planning how you’ll manage healthy-eating roadblocks before they happen is key to success.

March is Nutrition Month: Take a 100 Meal Journey and improve your health one step at a time.

Success Stories

I originally went to see Andrea with a desire to gain control of a bingeing problem. I have always been an all or none eater. As a result I tried every diet and fad to lose weight. Andrea taught me how to not “diet” but eat the right amounts of a variety of food to feel full and satisfied. And most important she taught me that the grey area is OK. It’s okay to have a treat without guilt. I now have my bingeing under control and eat the right amounts of food to give me the energy I need. And for the first time in my life I am not totally consumed with what I am eating. I can actually enjoy going out for dinner and preparing meals! I also feel confident I am teaching my daughters a healthy balance about food and eating.
