The food pyramid is the perfect tool for planning your healthy diet in advance before hitting the supermarket aisles. Reference the foods in your balanced diet chart such as MS Excel or MS Word… Create a sheet, note down every meal and in between snacks, for each day of the week..

Hello,
Very nice post.Weight loss is obviously a big issue for such a huge percentage of society these days.
All the best for the future.Terry Diaz
I don’t agree with bread and cereal being at the bottom of the food pyramid. I believe USDA skewed that when they made it to benefit farmers. It was about the same time the pyramid came out that the obesity problem began. To many processed grains are bad for you.

That is a great idea to track the foods you eat. It may seem daunting at first but becomes an easy habit very quickly.
Also we have to remember that the key to it all is we have to eat right and exercise. Our bodies consist of over 10 trillion cells. Eating right and exercising will help these cells to be in their very best optimal “shape”! This helps with proper cell communication resulting in overall well being and allowing you to be more properly equipped to handle those bumps in the road that you will without a doubt encounter. Plus exercising and proper diet also will aid in the fight against stress which is thought to be the main culprit in so many of the diseases that plague us today. I suggest at least 3 days a week for approximately 45-60 minutes at a time concentrating on maintaining a 70-75% maximum heart rate. You should combine cardio and strength training as they both have very beneficial qualities Studies suggest that by joining an online fitness/weight loss support group you are likely to have 3 times the success in achieving your goals than those that don’t.
To your health!
