Good Nutrition is a Road Trip
Eating right, intermittent fasting, and light exercise. When you eat right, it means setting a clear nutritional strategy that works for your body as a whole, and then calibrated to meet your tactical demands for each day.
The nutritional material we studied while building Diced Kitchen showed that it’s best to think of your nutrition like having a map for daily road trips, where every destination is a meal that works best for your body, then each day deciding what route you will take on that map, and how long you will stay at each destination.
Set Your GPS
On slow days, it makes more sense to visit Proteinville and Salad Town for just a little bit. On busy days, you’ll want to stop by Carbville and Proteinville before things get crazy, and after the dust settles, swing through Proteinville again for the Supplement Shack.
Do this long enough, and your mind will subconsciously know its “route” through that food map to properly fuel your body based on what you’re expecting to do tomorrow—the same way if you know you’re visiting your aunt across town after work tomorrow, you should put more gas in the car.
Program Yourself For Success
This subconscious nutritional mapping is crucial, because it ties into intermittent fasting. When your mind knows you’re not eating much tomorrow, not only is it psychologically braced for this, it also the a food map to navigate a “light day” on hand, so you’re less likely to crack.
Finally, light exercise like walking or even a brief jog, assure your mind that it still has enough caloric wealth to spend on this luxury. If it has the luxury to walk around for kicks while hungry, then everything must be okay. Plus it feels great, takes your mind off eating and a great way to burn time.
Learning to love your body and take care of your mind are crucial to any weight loss journey.
