| Think
thin. Adopt the habits of lean and healthy people, and you'll
soon be lean and healthy too. Eat breakfast, move around, and
eat more foods with a high fiber or water content.
Eat
breakfast, because if you don't you are likely to wind up hungrier
later in the day. Lean and healthy people eat breakfast. They
choose nutritious foods and don't fill up on empty, sweet calories.
When you eat a hearty, lean breakfast such as a cooked, whole
grain cereal, you're telling your body that it has plenty of
food. Thin people know that skipping breakfast is a good way
to throw off your body's metabolic balance. They eat breakfast,
and so should you.
Get
up and move around. Don't think of it as exercise. Just get
your blood flowing and use your body. Even if you're on a deadline
at work, take three minutes to stretch every hour. If you drive
to work every day, make it a habit to park far away from the
front door. Even the small effort that you exert walking from
your parking spot to the office will benefit you. Thin, fit
people don't always take the closest parking spot. Observe the
people who get out of their cars at the curb. They aren't usually
fit. .
People
who don't have weight issues tend to eat a lot of foods with
a high bulk or water content. Add fresh vegetables and fruits,
whole grain cereals, and foods like soups and salad to your
meals. Chop up a ripe, organic pear into your oatmeal in the
morning. Eat a banana instead of reaching for a handful of candy.
Thin people often seem to have an ability to appreciate simple,
whole foods. They don't often choose rich foods prepared with
lots of creamy sauces. Allow yourself the luxury of tasting
each bite and chew your food many times before swallowing it.
Choosing
whole foods, taking time to stretch and move around more, and
starting off your day with a wholesome breakfast is a great
way to think, act and become lean and healthy.
