Is weight loss a priority? Like all priorities – that means you must put it ahead of some things — or it is simply NOT a priority.

Do you put it ahead of having 3 drinks on the weekend when you are social with your friends and having one or zero is probably just as fun.

Do you put it ahead of grabbing a quick bag of chips when you are feeling munchie.

Do you put it ahead of watching TV when you can watch TV from the treadmill, bike or elliptical or you could record your show and watch it without commercials later….

Do you put it ahead of having a whole piece of birthday cake every time someone at work has a birthday. I mean I completely understand wanting to have a treat on YOUR birthday but does the birthday of a co-worker warrant you not meeting your goals??

So seriously consider your priorities and think about your choices and your needs and desires

Bad food choices happen more often when you are not prepared. Do you travel a lot? Carry a piece of fruit or an energy bar to avoid stopping for a candy bar. Do you order out a lot? Restaurant food tends to have more calories than what we make at home so plan your meals and shop for them so you can have the ingredients to have dinner at home.

Some processed foods have NO nutritional value. Don’t waste your calories on them. Enjoy more natural products (bread made with whole grain as the first ingredient for example). Make better choices when eating out (salad with salmon or chicken instead of a burger). Eat less fast food and change the fast food that you do eat (think grilled instead of fried and skip the fries!)

Ruby Tuesday’s like to say that every burger is handcrafted. All that means is some guy molds it into a patty before slapping it on the grill. How about something a bit more honest — there is not a SINGLE burger at Ruby Tuesday’s that has less than 750 calories and 45 grams of fat!
