WHAT KIND OF EATER ARE YOU?

Choose in between

or
Packed frozen meal
Meat and green

  •      Your meals usually come out of a vacuum-sealed pack, frozen or over the deli counter.
  •        You can’t eat alone: TV, the Internet, phone, or your favorite magazine is there for nearly every meal.
  •        Eat anytime and anywhere.
  •        You find it next to impossible to walk away from free food, even if you're not hungry – including all-you-can-eat buffets, supermarket sample tables, and those "taste me" booths.
  •        You spend more time regretting what you ate than preparing it.
  •        Usually chooses foods that are convenient and readily accessible.
  •        Usually go all day without eating much and consume far more than needed at dinner due to ravenous hunger.
  •        Eat meat and potatoes menu, instead of eating salad and meat menu.
  •        Eat ice cream or chocolate as desert a banana or apple instead.
  •        May eat a strict diet of "good" foods one day, and then overeat on "bad" foods on another. Instead of eating a small slice of chocolate cake, may choose fat-free cookies, but after eating eight of them, feels deprived.
  • No matter what diet you follow, some behaviors can sabotage weight loss.
  • So think about that. May you don’t need any special diet pill, plan or hit into the gym, just only need changes in above mentioned behavior.

Vegan and Vegetarian Protein Builds Muscle For Strength and Endurance



All vegetarians get asked, “Where do you get your protein?” It’s a question that comes up
because the meat and dairy industry has done an excellent job of suggesting that we must have animal protein to build muscle or be healthy. However, humans can get all their protein requirements from plants, since all plants have amino acid building blocks (in varying degrees) required to make protein. Many very large animals—elephants, giraffes, cows, etc.—get their protein from plants, so why can’t humans? Well, of course they can. In this video Ellen Jaffe Jones discusses vegetarian protein

  We've already told you that the color of the foods on your plate matters. Turns out that the color of your actual plate matters, too--at least when it comes to how much you eat. A recent study showed that people served themselves more food if there was little color contrast
