Many people struggle to get started when they're told they need to improve their eating habits. Here are some tips that can help you achieve sustainable positive change. Firstly, it's important to take a step wise approach to making dietary changes.
One or two small changes each week will lead to more sustainable change, than trying to make many drastic changes all at once. Identify target areas for change like times of day that are particularly challenging for you, or situations in which you tend to over eat. This can help you to define those step-wise changes and to come with an action plan.
For example, in week 1 you might decide to replace all of the sweetened beverages
in the fridge with unsweetened sparkling water. You might even find creative ways to
remind yourself of this change by brushing your teeth soon after dinner. Additional goals
added in the second week might include bringing a home made lunch to work instead of grabbing a fried rice or Biryani from the food vendor at the office. And replacing the high calorie, heavily processed bakery products in the home with fresh fruits and
crisp vegetables and maybe a healthy dip. Later on, you might choose to avoid meat 5 days a weeks and instead eat plant-based proteins like beans or lentils on those days.
Behavioral changes alone can be an important part of the step-wise action plan. They can facilitate weight control even without consciously changing the foods you eat. If you like the idea of focusing on behavioral strategies, try signing a contract with yourself stating that for the next month you will only eat when your seated at a table using cutlery and a plate. This change alone, increases the likelihood that the foods you eat will be well thought
out rather than impulse foods.
A similar behavioral change is the decision to consume more home-cooked food using unprocessed ingredients than ordering food online. The chance of those foods being healthier than what you ate before are pretty high. Sustainable dietary improvements require a realistic targeted approach that focuses on progressive improvements in your diet without the fear of failure that comes when you try to achieve unrealistic dietary goals. Food is one of the greatest joys of life, and optimizing your health means identifying the foods and eating behaviors that will satisfy you while protecting your long term health.
