Nutritional diet positive energy sentences

The positive sentences that can really help you establish long-term healthy eating habits are never anti-human "quit all junk food" or "you need to be hungry to feel dizzy to be self-disciplined". I have been a clinical nutrition guide for 4 years and have saved 12 short sentences that have been tested by thousands of users and cover different eating stages. They are not empty slogans, but are all practical words that can be implemented. Post them on the refrigerator or workstation, and scan them when you are confused about what to eat. It is much more useful than forcing yourself to count calories for half an hour.

Don't tell me, many users who came to me for consultation before had all kinds of "dietary self-discipline quotes" stored in their mobile phone memos, and the more they read, the more anxious they became. Last month, I met a 996 Internet girl who posted "You are responsible for yourself if you don't eat late night snacks" on the refrigerator door. After working on the project for three days in a row, I couldn't stand it anymore. In the middle of the night, I showed off two boxes of fried chicken and half a bucket of iced Coke. After eating, I squatted in the kitchen and sent me a message while crying, saying that I couldn't even resist this temptation and it was useless. I later asked her to tear up that sentence and replace it with "Eat when you are hungry, stop when you are not hungry, it is 100 times better than forcing yourself to overeat." Last week, she also reported to me that when she got hungry recently after staying up late at night, she cooked vegetables and egg noodles, and after eating, she went to bed comfortably, and she never had any retaliatory eating again.

In fact, different sentences are meant for people in different situations, and there is no standard answer. Just like there are two directions in the nutrition circle that are quarreling fiercely now: one group advocates strict sugar control and processed food, and the other group advocates reconciliation with food without being too harsh. Advocates on both sides have their own golden words, and no one can convince the other. I met an uncle who was newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. He liked to post "Every bite of sugar you eat is clogging your blood vessels" posted on the side of the dining table. In half a year, the glycosylated hemoglobin dropped from 7.8 to 6.1, which is very stable. ； I also met a little girl who had just recovered from an eating disorder. She talked about "the occasional happy meal is the lubricant for long-term healthy eating" every day. Now she goes to eat dessert with friends once a week, her weight is stable in the normal range, and her overall condition is much better than before when she counted calories every day. You see, as long as it suits you, it is useful.

The sticker on my own refrigerator reads, "Eating well is the lowest-cost way to maintain good health." This is really the most practical insight I have gained from being in this business for so long. I once had a client who was a corporate executive with high blood pressure and high blood lipids. He spent hundreds of thousands on imported health care products every year. I asked him to post this sentence on the kitchen wall. He put two less spoons of salt in his meals every day, added a handful of green leafy vegetables, and ate deep-sea fish twice a week. After three months, the indicator dropped a lot. The extra money he spent on food every month was less than 100 yuan, which was much more cost-effective than those health care products that cost thousands. There is also the saying that I often tell people who eat food, "Choose a meal with visible ingredients, which is 10 times more effective than looking at the calorie meter to pick out 10 calories." Many people buy the Internet celebrity fat-reducing meal that claims to have only 300 calories.

Last time I had an argument with friends in the fitness circle over dinner. Some people said, "Fitness is about eating unscrupulously." Others said, "If you don't eat right, it will be useless for a long time." In fact, what is right or wrong? Your goal in fitness is to have fun, so it’s absolutely fine to show off with a hamburger and a glass of iced Coke after training. ； If the goal is to burn fat in preparation for a competition, then there is nothing wrong with calculating the macronutrients (the ratio of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) honestly. The corresponding sentences are originally meant for people with different needs, and there is no need to use your own standards to kidnap others. The screen saver on my mobile phone is now "Food is used to nourish you, not to make you feel guilty". Sometimes when I go out to eat hot pot with friends, someone teases me, "You are a nutritionist and you eat so much?" ”I turned on the screen saver and showed her that there are no foods that nutritionists must not touch. As long as the overall diet is balanced, eating heavy meals occasionally is not a problem.

In fact, I don’t ask you to memorize these sentences. When you read whichever sentence you find comfortable, just save it and post it somewhere where you can see it often. There is no need to force yourself to follow any of the rules. After all, eating well is a very happy thing. There is no point in making yourself anxious just because of a few slogans, right?
