February: Eat Many Small Meals

This is not in contradiction to your weight loss regime rather is in favor of it. Don’t see how many meals you are having, focus on the fact that you will be controlling portion sizes of your meals. Plan your daily diet like, a breakfast, mid morning snack, lunch, tea and snack, dinner, snack before bedtime. Having healthy meals frequently will reduce your cravings and help keep calories in check!

March: Eat Balanced Meals

March: Eat Balanced MealsYour plate should have a balance of protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and fats. Yes, you need fat for a healthy functioning of the body but it should be healthy fat only. Focusing on just one nutrient will create deficiency of another and that is certainly not a good idea. If you find it hard to handle a complete plate, take time to inculcate it in your diet, but do it!

April: Drink Enough Water
