Ditch the junk
When beginning a new eating routine, one of the very first things you can do to kick-start your diet is to create a healthy food environment.
Start with this kitchen makeover
Get rid of the junk food in your cabinets, pantry, refrigerator and freezer. Don't set yourself up for temptation. Rid your kitchen of high-calorie sweets and snack foods. If it's not there, you won't eat it.
Stock up on healthy choices
By shopping for healthy foods (such as fruit, vegetables, low-fat dairy products, lean meats and fish, and wholegrain cereals and breads) you'll have all the items you need to prepare healthy meals and calorie-controlled snacks.
Identify 'trigger' foods
Does that diet-sized scoop of ice cream often turn into three big heaps? Buy individually wrapped low-fat ice cream treats instead for built-in portion control.
Have Slim·Fast products on hand
Keep your diet flavourful and interesting with a variety of great tasting Slim·Fast Shakes, Meal Bars, and Muffin Bars. Some of them even contain chocolate so provide an ideal fix for addicts.
Healthy eating on the go
Follow these healthy eating guidelines wherever you are – after all, it's no good having a sin-free kitchen only to raid your desk drawer for treats as soon as you get to work.
Whether you're hard at work in the office, or sunning yourself on holiday, try to keep a healthy food environment around you – and a saintly Slim∙Fast snack bar close by in case of emergency!
