There are SO
many variables to consider when you are creating a diet plan, some of
which I have included below to help you dissect your diet and
discover what is and isn't working for you.
Sometimes you won't know what to look for unless you're told what to look out for.
Check this list out and see what you think, I'm certain this will help you understand your own body and diet some more.
Analyze the following -
. How do certain foods make you feel? Lethargic, energised . .
.
Foods
which make you feel lethargic/tired can sometimes point to the fact
that your body either doesn't agree with them or you're having them at
the wrong time of the day for optimal performance.
. Which foods digest easily and which ones cause discomfort within the gut?
If specific foods continuously
cause you discomfort within your gut then I'd recommend you have a comprehensive test done, and potentially eliminate them.
. What times of the day do you experience acute hunger?
Acute
hunger at the same times of the day can suggest that your diet
composition is wrong, or at least around that time of the day. By
playing around with fiber, fat and carbohydrate intake you
can help fix this.
. Are you sleeping well?
Poor
sleeping patterns can be related to excessive stimulants, heightened
stress etc. One way to help improve sleep is to manage stimulant intake
and have a small carb meal close to bed to experience a rise in
serotonin levels.
. Is your concentration good or not (cognitive
function)?
Again,
too many stimulants can create an environment where you can't
concentrate. This is very common with those who rely too heavily on
strong stimulants. Reduce intake drastically and resensitise your body
to them. This will help with adrenal function too, making fat loss
easier.
This is just a small insight into some of the questions and KEY points I look at, and
why. See if you can learn anything about yourself . . .
