FOOD CHOICE TIP
Variety is the spice of life
One of the tougher components of a macro-based nutrition regimen is the ease of a routine. If you always eat the same things then you always know what the macros are. For some people this works and eating the same thing day in and day out is totally doable. However, for the majority of people variety is the spice of life and they need to work different foods into the mix in order to stay on track. Here are a couple things that I do regularly when I feel like I need to change it up:
*Eat Seasonally -- that way you are eating the food with the most flavor
*Buy what's on sale -- it will force you to learn how to cook and prepare new foods and saves some cash.. Double win!
*Recipe hunt -- Pinterest.com can be your BFF here
*Stalk your friends on myfitnesspal if they share their diaries to find some new food ideas
*Have breakfast for dinner or dinner for breakfast
*Think back to your childhood and recall things you used to love to eat and work them back in somehow
*Go to the grocery store in off hours -- it will be less busy and you can browse the aisles for new food options without getting run over by the masses -- this is the one time you don't want to go to the grocery store with a list -- just go in and shop and see what you find to put in your cart.
