17. IMPORTANCE OF WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
The secret to success is making changes and sticking with them
First - Find out what you eat and drink. A key step in managing your weight, is taking an
honest assessment of where you are
Next - Get a daily food plan to help guide your food choices
Then – Begin making better choices and notice how doing so changes how you feel
In addition to helping you feel and look better, reaching a healthier body weight is good for
your overall health and well being. If you are overweight or obese, you have a greater risk of
developing many diseases including type 2 diabetes, heart disease and some types of cancer.
18. WAYS TO EAT HEALTHY

• Enjoy your food, but eat less
• Cook more often at home
• When eating out, choose lower calorie menu options

our diet and ensures we stay full for longer
• Only eat whole grains
• Incorporate green smoothies (1 a day)
• Vary protein choices
• Cut back on foods high in solid fats, added sugars
and salt (sodium)
• Drink only water
WAYS TO EAT HEALTHY
Before eating, think about what goes on your plate. Foods like
vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and lean protein foods contain the
nutrients you need without too many calories
20. EAT WHOLEFOODS

• Limit or avoid processed foods that are boxed,
canned or packaged - added fat, sugar, salt,
chemicals and calories
• Whole foods packed with vitamins, minerals,
fibre, antioxidants and other nutrients
• Fast food calories with no nutrients
• Prepare healthy meal almost as quickly as
processed food. Preparation is key.
• Plan menus with fresh fruits and vegetables,
add whole grain pastas as sides or as a base
for the main meal
• If using processed foods read labels, get ones
with shortest list of ingredients
• Rinse canned foods in water to eliminate salt
• Keep stockpile of easy, quick menu ideas
• Ease meal preparation
21. SUBSTITUTES
CHOOSE HEALTHIER OPTIONS
Choose fresh fruit and vegetables for snacks
Serve meatless dinners several times each week
Eat fruit for dessert
Wholegrain for white - pasta, rice, bread
Bliss balls / raw dessert / smoothie instead of a chocolate bar -
TREAT ONLY
HOWEVER, don't choose “light’ products
PICK LOW-FAT MEATS
Buy lean cuts and trim off all the fat
Remove the skin from chicken
Choose white meat
Drain the fat after cooking meat and blot the meat with a paper
towel
AVOID FRYING FOODS

Steam, bake or boil vegetables in a small amount of water
Bake, roast, barbecue or grill
Stir-fry; heat the pan to high, add no more than 1 tsp. oil or use
cooking spray, stir until cooked well

Notas do Editor
I’m Kajsa Humphreys.
Born and raised in Sweden. Care to Au to study.
When I was younger I didn’t really plan my life, I didn’t set goals, I just wanted to have fun and make the most out of my life but I never really defined what that was. As a result I just sort of fell into things.
Corporate marketing career. While I enjoyed it and I learnt a lot I knew it wasn’t what I was meant to do. I knew that there was something else out there for me but I couldn’t quite figure out what it was .
I had 2 children, Alva who is now 8 and Fred who is 5 and I went back to work full time work after each of the kids. And I was living that “Super woman” life trying to be everything for everyone but really forgetting to look after myself.
I ended up putting on a bit of weight which obviously made me feel less comfortable in myself. I was also lacking energy and I was constantly getting sick, catching any cold and flu the kids dragged in the door. It was also affecting my relationship, I wasn’t the happy, positive person that I always had been and I didn’t have as much patience with the kids. So I sort of felt that I tried to be all these things for others but I didn’t really succeed in any.
So I decided to do something about it. It started with the gym, I got into a new exercise routine and I soon found that I loved it, it gave me some me time, some time out to just be and not having to think about anything or do anything other that sweat and go hard, something I love doing!
This soon followed by a healthier diet. I have always loved food and cooking and followed new food trends and I guess healthy eating was the latest so I started experimenting with a processed free, sugar free and grain free diet and it all changed. I had never felt better in my life. My energy levels elevated and I wasn’t getting sick nearly as much.
My passion for a healthy lifestyle was born. I stumbled across Institute of Integrative Nutrition offering a 12 months course to become a Health Coach. And it was one of those moments in my life were it just felt right, I just had to do it.
So over the last year I have studied to become a health coach. I have learnt how to look after myself, not just by eating right and exercising but also by making the right lifestyle choices and being a better version of myself, a happier, lighter and freer version. And I’ve learnt how to inspire other how t do the same.
I decided to take a leap of faith and stop being scared of the unknown earlier this year and quit my job to set up my health coaching practice where I work with busy women, helping them reach their health and lifestyle goals.
So while I’ve found my cape and I’m slowly learning how to fly, I’m not perfect, I’ve still got goals to reach but I feel like I’m finally doing all that I can to be the best I can be and I can help you too.

When you set effective goals, you will achieve more. Goals provide focus, enhance productivity, bolster self-esteem, and increase commitment. Setting specific and personal mini goals like training for a race, being able to lift heavier or fit into your old pair of jeans will help you stay motivated and realise just how much progress you're making every day. These may seem like small wins, but they're absolutely worth celebrating.
When setting a goal, clearly outline the series of steps for achieving it to stay on track and reduce overwhelm. Make your goals S.M.A.R.T. – Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timely. With practice, you will find that you are able to achieve more than you thought you could.
Before even setting the goal, you should take several steps to be sure that you have clarity and you are striving for goals that are really important to you. If you are confused or misguided on your goals, it is harder to stick with your plan.
Clarity
You must get clear on where you are currently
2. Certainty
Once you get clear on where you are, you must become certain that you can attain this goal
Excitement
After figuring out where you are and that you can achieve anything you set your mind to, you need to decide where you want to be.
4. Focus
Out of your list of goals, circle the top 3 or 4 you would like to achieve. Which of those goals would inspire you to take action?
5. Commitment
Take each of your 3 or 4 goals and decide why you MUST achieve them. What are some of the things you don’t want to do, that you will have to, if you want to achieve them.
6. Momentum
Resolve to do one small and one large thing immediately to move toward reaching your goals.
7. Get S.M.A.R.T
he next slide outlines an example day of meals during the challenge. Feel free to mix and match to suite your personal tastes.
You also have a booklet full of recipes designed to use. Look the recipes over and decide what you’d like to make this week, so you can create your shopping list with those in mind.
The shopping list includes cleansing food items needed for suggested meals containing salads, broth, and smoothies. The meal ideas are for your convenience to simplify your cleansing experience.
Keep in mind that you have the freedom to adjust the meals as you would like. If you replace meal items be sure to keep to the basic cleansing foods from the shopping list to receive the maximum benefit of cleansing.
Have fun with this. If there is anything on this list that you do not recognise, Google it and get an image. The people at the store don’t always know what it is if it isn’t in a box with a name on it.
One thing to remember, most whole foods do not have a 6 year shelf life like many of the things you may be used to. You will need to go to the store at least once or twice a week to stock up on fresh produce.
If you do buy something with a label, read it!
Why is weight management important?
In addition to helping you feel and look better, reaching a healthier body weight is good for your overall health and well being. If you are overweight or obese, you have a greater risk of developing many diseases including type 2 diabetes, heart disease and some types of cancer.
The secret to success is making changes and sticking with them.
First - Find out what you eat and drink. A key step in managing your weight, is taking an honest assessment of where you are.
Next - Find out what to eat and drink. Get a personalized daily food plan, just for you, to help guide your food choices.
Then – Begin making better choices and notice how doing so changes how you feel. Everyone is different. Compare what you eat and drink, to what you should eat and drink. The ideas and tips in this section can help you make better choices, which can have a lasting impact on your body weight over time.
The advice in this section is for adults. If your child is overweight or obese, consult a health care provider to determine appropriate weight management for him or her.
Let’s be honest, diets that restrict don’t work. They are potentially dangerous and almost always lead to weight gain in the end. The only way to lose weight and maintain the loss is to change your lifestyle. When you maintain a healthy lifestyle, you maintain energy, weight loss and health.
Eating right is the answer. Once you learn what you need to know about healthy eating, you will always know what to eat.
Eating less fat and fewer calories is an important part of losing weight. However, that is only one important part of healthy eating. Another part of healthy eating is changing the way we eat and what we eat.
Here are a few tips to help:
Spread your calories out through the day. This will help keep you from getting too hungry and losing control. Eat 3 meals each day and let yourself have 1 or 2 healthy snacks.
Don’t skip meals. Try to eat at the same time each day. Regular meals will also keep you from getting too hungry and losing control.
Eat slowly. Try pausing between bites. Put down your fork and take a break between bites. Drink water with meals and enjoy the taste of your food. Eating slowly will help you digest your food better, be more aware of what you are eating and be more aware when you are full.
Don’t worry about cleaning your plate. Serve yourself smaller portions to begin with and understand that the greatest waste of food is eating more than you want or need.
Change your eating environment. Eat with others, do not eat while watching television or doing anything else that can take your attention away from your meal. When it is meal or snack time really create your atmosphere and let it be an experience.
Added sugars and fats load foods with extra calories you don't need. Too much salt may increase your blood pressure.
Only eat food in it’s natural state or lightly processed, ‘real food’. Limit or avoid processed foods that are boxed or canned. Food is processed to make it safe, available and easy to use. The processing may do bad things like adding fat, sugar, salt, chemicals and calories.
Whole foods are packed with vitamins, minerals, fiber, antioxidants and other nutrients. Fast food is often calories with no nutrients. Whole food is usually grown locally and doesn’t have packaging. Food is always best when it doesn’t have a label on it.
You can prepare a healthy meal almost as quickly as something that is processed and convenient. Preparation is the key.
Plan your menus with fresh fruits and vegetables. Add whole grain pastas as sides or as a base for the main meal.
Freezing preserves the nutrients in vegetables and fruits. The process changes the appearance slightly. These foods can be easily thawed and added to meals.
If you use processed foods, get the ones with the shortest list of ingredients.
Rinse canned foods in water to eliminate salt.
Keep a stockpile of easy menu ideas for rainy days. Recipes that include common ingredients and can be prepared in 20 minutes or less are best to have on hand.
Find ways to ease your meal preparation. Cut and chop fresh ingredients the night before or on Sundays for the week.
Even when you eat healthy, you can still overeat, sabotaging your weight-loss goals, and you might not even realise you're overdoing it. If you compare portion sizes today to what they were 20 years ago you’ll come to learn why our waistlines have been consistently expanding. Pre packaged and restaurant foods are frequently served in large portions, and portion sizes just keep growing. See chart to start learning about just how much constitutes one serving and see tips below for how to manage portion control.
Use smaller containers. Separate leftovers into single serving containers so you’re less tempted to eat all the remains.
Fill at least half your plate with vegetables. This will help control your grain and protein portions.
Have a small salad or a glass of water before your meal. It will curb your appetite.
Have two entrees rather than an entree and main when eating out.
Eat slowly and consciously. It takes time for the body’s hunger signals to shut down after eating, so wait 20 minutes before going back for seconds.
Buy single serving snacks or portion into individual bags. You’re more likely to overeat while snacking from large containers.
Keep seconds out of sight. Leave the food in the kitchen to avoid refill temptations.
Have smaller meals throughout the day. This will keep you satisfied and decrease the urge to eat large portions at traditional mealtimes.
Have fun with this. If there is anything on this list that you do not recognise, Google it and get an image. The people at the store don’t always know what it is if it isn’t in a box with a name on it.
One thing to remember, most whole foods do not have a 6 year shelf life like many of the things you may be used to. You will need to go to the store at least once or twice a week to stock up on fresh produce.
