As part of the Nutribar weight-loss program, we have provided a convenient 7-day weight-loss plan (printed on the inside of each package) to help you plan your meals. All meals have been created by a nutritionist and carefully follow Canada's Food Guide. This meal plan has been designed to work in combination with enjoyable healthy eating and regular physical activity, since exercise is crucial to weight loss and health. Dieting without exercise reduces the body's ability to use stored-up fat, and it may promote obesity.
Beverages throughout each day include: water, club soda with lemon/lime, tea and coffee should be kept to a minimum, vegetable juice, and limited fruit juice.
Do not exceed more than 3 fruit servings a day, unless you exercise frequently. The more you exercise, the more calories are burned. The more calories burned, the more calories needed, therefore, more food may be eaten.
To determine portion sizes of meat, fish, or poultry, a palm-size piece (about the size of a deck of cards) is about one serving.
IMPORTANT TIP: Be certain you're drinking enough water at least six to eight 8 oz. (250 mL) glasses of water daily.
Approximately 55% to 65% of adult body weight is composed of water. Virtually every body process depends on water and every cell, tissue and body fluid contains water. Water is essential to the buildup or breakdown of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. It is essential for digestion and absorption, for removal of metabolic and indigestible wastes, helps transport nutrients and all body substances and helps regulate body temperature. It is an essential element not only for your health, but also in the success of your weight-loss regime.
