It was more of a nutritional list, than a true dieting list. But for a dieting list we were surprised that it was half decent. But we swear, that all these people do is reorder the list for the next time they need to come out with a list. However, the other good news is that this list is out before the National Eating Season, aka the winter time.
Our dieting advice to diet list readers is this. Just pick out one thing on the list and try to do that well for a month before taking on the whole darn list! It is just like dieting, which sucks by the way; the dieters want to loose 10 pounds before loosing the first pound!
Ok, back to the MSN 10-item list. Here are the first three with our comments:
1- eat protein!
We couldn't agree more. What is amazing is that the author points out the anemic (pun intended) "government recommendation" number for daily protein intake. It is embarrassingly low. (Were these people also in charge of the banking system?)
In any case, why not just drink some milk. Is that so hard? An 8 oz glass of 2% milk gives you 8 grams of protein. Didn't your mom always tell you to drink it? Was mom ever wrong?
2- don't skip breakfast
Isn't this on everybody's list? Yeah but it is still true.
Since it is getting colder, how about eating some oatmeal? Yum, oatmeal!!!
Quaker-Instant Oatmeal Variety Pack, 55ct
3- don't skip other meals
This is the standard eating on the run advice that everybody hears and knows and nobody pays attention to it Snack Food Nation.
So there is the list, at least the top 3. There is more, but let's focus on 1 or 2 first.
And just remember ... Diet's Suck!
