Eat for your frame
The body is only able to sustain what it puts in.
I figured out that between my meals, and drinks; I was consuming close to 4000 calories a day. Ignorance is bliss. I was blissfully unaware.
“I really don’t eat that much”. Oh. The denial!
Awareness is the key. The door is wide open. Embrace the change.
I saw this on a TV show;
YOUR BODY NEEDS 10 CALORIES PER POUND. SO IF YOU WANT TO WEIGH 150LBS, EAT 1500 CALORIES! IF YOU WANT TO WEIGH 300LBS EAT 3000 CALORIES!
My goal weight is 150, based on my 5’7” frame. My “ magic number” is 1500.
I try to stay at or around 1500 per day, based on my height and activity level.
On days that I am very active (10,000 or more steps), I eat closer to 1700 or 1800.
Everyone is different. You may need more or less. If you’re 6’3”, you’ll need more. If you’re 5’2”; you’ll need less. If you’re into power lifting and getting ripped; you’ll need more. If you’re bedbound and not moving, you’ll need less. Talk to your doctor, if you’re unsure.
Basically, you just gotta find “your magic number”. Be conscious and aware of what you’re eating, and stick with that number. Mindfully be aware of what you’re eating.
Everything you eat has a “number” (aka calories), make it add-up! Your grand total calories for the day should be “your magic number”.
Prepare food, stick to serving sizes, and stay within your budget.
Don’t let excuses from your mind rationalize what your body “needs”. The mind moves the body. Where the mind goes, the body will follow. Do the mental work, and the physical work will magically happen!
Step 1- Realize.
Step 2- Decide.
Step 3- Commit.
It’s that simple!
Follow the path of believing, striving, reaching, and accomplishing!
Manifest your hard work, and all that has been freely given to you ❤️
