Fit Tip of the Week

Here I am nagging again, but sometimes it's just the only way!  Now that we've officially reached the holiday season, its more important than ever to keep that Food Diary.  Log each meal, snack, drink and keep track of yow much you're consuming daily.  While you're writing, go ahead and note exercise/activities too. 

Remember to be specific and detail your consumption with vivid descriptions: size, quantity, preparation details are important!

I attended a webinar yesterday hosted by Health Fitness Provider Network. Awesome! Dominique Adair, MS, RD was the speaker and she kept me interested for 2.5 hours. Know how hard it is to sit still for that long??? Diet Hype: Seeing Through the Haze and Navigating the Maze was the theme. Tons of info! What I really took away from it, though, was the importance of keeping a food log. She actually refuses to take on a client if they will not agree to logging their food consumption. Of course, she took it one further since her audience was primarily personal trainers and really hit home with journaling exercise as well as food. I'm getting my journal out today! I'm challenging you all to keeping a log of food and exercise this week.
