An Alternative Eating Plan

By making important changes in your daily eating habits that are easy and acceptable to your lifestyle, you can lose weight safely and permanently while saving money. This plan encourages you to eat healthy and let your body respond by losing weight in a healthy manner. By eating more healthy, you will reap more benefits than simply losing weight. Following a healthier diet, we create healthier bodies and live healthier lives. Weight loss is a result - not the objective.    Eating healthier for yourself - it is ultimately one of the best things you can do not just for yourself but for those you love.  

This is not a weight loss diet because "weight loss" diets fail.  The human body just does not shed fat quickly. Losing weight does not easily occur due to the natural processes of our bodies (due to our weight "set point"). It takes the body time to adjust to changes. It is not a matter of how quickly we lose weight, it is giving our bodies the right kinds of foods and allowing the amount of time for our bodies to adapt. It will be an ongoing process for your body to adapt to your new eating habits.  

Fast weight loss plans: 

Can be unhealthy and can be harmful to your body.     

Often lead to loose skin and loss of muscle tissue and bone mass.  

Are usually followed by fast weight GAIN.  

Can lead to bingeing and eating disorders, especially among teenagers   

Can be costly, difficult to manage, and are not sustainable.  

Sets unrealistic goals and set up those using it for failure. 

Start the Easy Healthy Eating System and recommit to This Eating Plan at the beginning of Each Month. If you get off the plan during the month just decide to get right back on it at the beginning of the next. It isn't as important how many times you get off track as much as it is getting back on. Be sure if something hasn't worked for you to try something different on the list.  

If you can, find a friend or others in your family to do this with you for Mutual Support.  Changing eating habits is easier when you have someone else going though the same experience for mutual encouragement. So, find a  friend or family member to do this with. Be sure the person really wants to change their eating lifestyle. 

On the list below, find what healthy eating habits would be acceptable to you.  Choose at least three for the first month.  After each month drop an item that isn't working for you and replace it with another item. Aim to embrace between 2 and 3 habits each month that you are performing on a consistent basis. Each month increase that the over-all number gradually.  At the beginning of each month mentally review and evaluate your progress and consistency.   Continue with the ones that are working for you and pick new items you will be comfortable with. Make notes of what worked for you or what adjustments to your effort might be helpful.
