Choosing the Right Eating Plan

I really don’t like using the word “diet,” so instead I am going to refer to your eating plan. In this blog we are going to examine how you can pick the best eating plan for you. Remember that no one plan is the right one for every single person. You have to determine what works best for you, which means taking into consideration a number of factors.

The first thing you need to consider is if the eating plan is “doable.” I remember years ago joining a group called “Prism.” You had to eliminate all breads and sugars. This was an immediate, drastic change that proved to be too much for me.

For some people they can cut things out of their diet cold turkey but for others, it needs to be gradual. This is what will determine whether or not something is doable.

The second thing you need to consider is the amount of time it will take. Food preparation can be quick and easy or it can be long and tedious. You need to know that some eating plans will require extra time in the kitchen. So if you don’t have it to spare, it will likely not work for you.

The third thing you should think about is the cost. Let’s face it, eating healthier costs more. It’s sad but true. So you will need to figure out if you can afford the eating plan. Of course, cutting costs in other areas is worth spending more on healthier choices. So you may need to reevaluate your spending in general.

Finally, you will also need to consider if this is an eating plan you can stick to. If you are forced to eat something you don’t like, it is unlikely you will continue with it. Eating healthy doesn’t mean you shouldn’t enjoy your food.

I hope these tips help when it comes to determining what the best eating plan is for you. What other tips do you have?
