Читать книгу Clean Eating Alice Eat Well Every Day: Nutritious, healthy recipes for life on the go - Alice Liveing - Страница 18

This may be slightly reiterating what I’ve spoken about at length regarding quick fixes, but I do feel it warrants another mention. One salad doesn’t make you lose weight, while one bad meal doesn’t make you put on weight.

It’s here where I remind you that, as stated at the beginning of this section, slow and gradual change is undoubtedly going to provide you with the most sustainable and long-lasting results. Don’t feel disheartened or beat yourself up because you see no instant visual change.

This book is about creating the happiest and healthiest version of you, both inside and out, and so the internal changes should be celebrated just as much as the external.

What I want this book to give to you: The Promise

• A motivational tool to help you break free from fad diets and establish a year-round healthy body and mind.

• A no-nonsense guide to nutrition, explaining why I make the choices I do, with research-based evidence to accompany my decisions.

• A sustainable, balanced approach to nutrition, whereby calorie or macro counting is ditched for more intuitive eating.

• A flexible guide to how to build the perfect plates. I will give you examples for all situations, where I show you how and why I build my plates the way I do.

• An alternative to ‘diets’, whereby you focus on short- and long-term goals, both physically and mentally, that don’t involve you stepping on the scales.
