Lief dagboek #41 – Helemaal vergeten

2016-04-26-08.17.06-1.jpg.jpeg
Wil ik op zondagavond tegen 12 uur naar bed gaan. Bedenk ik me ineens dat ik nog een artikel moet schrijven voor maandag. Oeps! Dat is me echt nog nooit gebeurt, dat ik mijn blog totaal ben vergeten. Maar goed, dan verschuiven we voor deze ene keer, het verhaal naar mijn dagboek naar de dinsdag. Vandaag dus! Continue reading

How to Build a Meal Plan Based on Your Weight Goals

Meal plans are essential to any healthy diet, although sometimes it can be hard to know just how to plan balanced meals every day. But don’t worry, we’ve got you. Read more about Alpilean.

Herbalife Nutrition dietitians have created easy and effective meal plans that have built-in calorie counts and additional tools to help you plan your meals. They are designed to provide you with the protein your body needs every day to function at its best.

Just follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Meal Plan Selection Tool

No two people are alike, and everyone’s protein and calorie needs vary. So how do you know which meal plan is right for you? Start with the Meal Plan Selection Tool. The charts will help you determine the suggested meal plan for you, and your plan is designed to match your individual needs for protein and calories.

The Meal Plan Selection Tool will guide you to the recommended Meal Plan A, B, C or D, based on your gender, weight and height. Visit https://newsdirect.com/news/revive-daily-reviews-uncovering-the-truth-about-gh-and-deep-sleep-what-customers-are-saying-209363466.

You can find your recommended plan using our digital Meal Plan Selection Tool.

Once you know which plan is recommended for you, you’ll go to Step 2 to see your suggested plan based on your goals.

Step 2: Meal Plans A, B, C and D

Each meal plan has three options:

  1. Daily nutrition (or weight maintenance)
  2. Weight loss
  3. Weight gain

Choose the option within the plan that best suits your personal goals. You can download the Meal Plan Chart here.

The Meal Plan Chart shows you what a typical day will look like, with recommended meals, snacks and shakes to choose from each day. Meal Plans are created by choosing items from the following categories:

  • Balanced Meals (25 grams protein, 400 calories or 40 grams protein, 600 calories)
  • Protein Snacks (10-30 grams protein, 150-300 calories)
  • Herbalife Nutrition Formula 1 Shakes (20-30 g protein, 250-300 calories)

Daily Nutrition (Weight Maintenance) 

When coupled with an appropriate exercise program, this option replaces one meal per day (typically breakfast) with a shake.

Weight Loss

This option promotes weight and fat loss when coupled with an appropriate exercise program and replaces two meals per day (typically lunch and dinner) with a shake.

Weight Gain

Using this option, get more protein and calories by supplementing a healthy diet with up to three Herbalife Nutrition Formula 1 shakes per day. When coupled with an appropriate exercise program, gain healthy weight (as lean body mass).

Step 3: Meal Builder Tool

The Meal Builder tool is a simple, step-by-step approach to putting together healthy meals. Meals are made up of foods from five categories: Protein, Vegetables, Healthy Carbohydrates, Healthy Fats, and Seasonings.

Depending on your Meal Plan, you will create meals that have either approximately 25 grams of protein and 400 calories, or 40 grams of protein and 600 calories. Using the Meal Builder, you can select the exact foods you need to create your healthy, balanced meals.

  1. There are two Meal Builders: one that incorporates meat and one that is vegetarian.  Choose the meal builder that works for you.
  2. Choose the column that corresponds to the meal you are going to build (25 grams of protein and 400 calories, or 40 grams of protein and 600 calories)
  3. Select the amounts of food that are listed in each food group and combine items in a variety of ways to create healthy, balanced meals.

You can find the Meal Builder tools here:

  • Meal Builder (Non-Vegetarian)
  • Meal Builder (Vegetarian)

Lief dagboek #3 – opruimen, er tussen uit en afscheid van zusje

1-20150705_193856 (2)

Een nieuwe naam voor deze rubriek! Ik vond ‘zomerfoto’s’ toch niet helemaal de juiste benaming voor het artikel op de zondag. Nadat ik alle pagina’s op mijn blog + mijn layout had bijgewerkt wist ik ineens hoe ik het wél wilde noemen. Een rubriek waarin ik zowel foto’s als tekst kwijt kan! Zo heb ik stiekem al bedacht dat ik deze rubriek na de zomervakantie naar de maandag ga verplaatsen als ‘extra artikel’. Zo kan ik altijd één keer per week mijn hart luchten of vertellen wat ik zoal heb gedaan met evt. foto’s! Zo is het niet helemaal de 4838102039ste diary op een blog :) Deze zomervakantie houd ik er nog even lekker veel foto’s in omdat ik het zelf altijd heerlijk vind om foto’s te kijken van anderen! (of ben ik de enige?) Kijk je mee naar mijn week? Continue reading
