5 Tips To Make Nutrition Easier

Are you struggling to find that 'sweet spot' with your nutrition? 

Are you struggling to find inspiration for your meals? 

Nutrition does NOT need to be fancy, it does NOT need to be complicated!

Lets break this down into 5 steps to make sure we tick ALL the boxes!

Top Tips

• Less Randomness ✅

Eating without structure often leads to poor nutrition choices, overeating or skipping meals. When your eating habits are random, its easy to fall into unhealthy eating patterns!

Establishing consistency can help you to stay on track and be more in control of your nutrition. Try to stick to a meal structure to help create STABILITY in your day. This will help in preventing mindless eating/snacking or extreme hunger that leads to overeating and bingeing. 

• Regular Eating Pattern ✅

A consistent eating pattern will help regulate energy levels throughout the day. Eating regular meals means that the body does not feel the need to 'overcompensate' with large meals that are irregular. 

Aim to eat around the same times each day when possible and include smart snacks between meals to ensure there is no energy drops. The goal here is to avoid a drop in blood glucose levels due to long periods without food. A drop in blood glucose levels will lead to mindless snacking & poor nutrition choices as we try to replace that lost sugar!

• Meal Planning ✅

Planning your meals in advance will take away the stress of deciding what to eat last minute and how to make this 'last minute meal' fit into your nutrition targets!

Set aside one hour each week to plan and prep meals for the week ahead - ensuring you are set up for success in the nutrition department!

• Calorie Awareness ✅

Having calorie awareness is not about restriction, its about gaining an understanding of portion sizes and how to fuel your body correctly to align with your goals; whether those are fat loss, muscle gaining or performance based goals!

Having this awareness will allow you to make smarter choices without depriving yourself along the way. Using apps, such as myfitnesspal will allow you to learn how to fuel correctly and accurately to achieve these goals! 

• Go-To Food Choices ✅

Having a set list of go to meals and snacks that you enjoy helps to eliminate the stress of deciding what to consume, what calories/macros it has, how your body digests this food pre-session etc. This makes it easier to stay on track, especially on busy days when time is limited!

Develop a list of 5-10 meals that you enjoy, are easy to make and contribute to your nutrition goals.This way you have smart options available to you on days you are busy. 

Nutrition should not feel difficult - you need to find ways that make ticking the boxes as SIMPLE as it possibly can be, within YOUR lifestyle!
