1 Skin Sport Nutrition 1. Set Goals: Set your goals to strive for during your program. Write your goals down and review them daily. This gives you something to strive for and work hard to achieve. 2. Change your eating habits: Make it your goal to eat 6 small meals everyday. Research shows that those people who eat frequently accelerate their metabolism and burn more fat. Be strong! This is the hardest part but it is also the most rewarding. Remember you are in control. 3. Keep a food journal: Use this daily to record how your day was as far as diet and exercise. Use your journal when you want to go in to the kitchen and binge. Sit down and write about what is happening in your day and try to find the triggers that make you want to binge. 4. Work Out: This program consists of three to five highly effective workout sessions with your trainer. Do not skip workout sessions during the week. If you must skip a session make it up during the same week! This will help you reach your goals much faster than diet alone. 5. Keep a food diary: Record everything you eat during the day and bring your diary to every workout session for your trainer to review. Remember your trainer cannot help you if they do not know what you are putting into your body. 6. Plan your meals ahead of time: By planning ahead you ensure you will eat the right types of foods and never have to give in to unhealthy choices because the right choices weren t available.
