Another way to say it: The fresher the food, the more nutrition it retains. The bottom line is that over time food breaks down and loses its nutritional value. “… Within that short amount of time, I don’t believe they would lose their nutritional value. I emailed Quaker Oats and their response was: Whatever you go through MANY other people are too so it’s well worth talking about 🙂 Again, thank you SO MUCH for sharing your experience. Had I focused on slowly building healthy habits I would have lost the weight a lot faster, and for good. I always say “It took me 10 years to lose 10 pounds” because I tried to make dramatic changes for 10 years. Think of the tortoise and hare story – the animal that took slow steady steps toward their goal got there the fastest. Then make another small, healthy change the next week.
Or if you’re used to eating rice cakes and diet pop for breakfast, try adding some fresh food like a banana. From my experience, the best way to build habits is to make small changes to what you’re already doing – NOT dramatic change! For example, if you’re used to eating 1 cup of steel cut oats, 1 cup of blueberries, 1 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk and a tablespoon of honey, try eating 3/4 of that each morning this week. For instance, eating roughly balanced meals made mostly of whole foods. But it was for the 10 years I struggled to lose weight! Over the last 18 years that I’ve been a healthy weight my focus has been healthy habits. My approach to weight loss is NOT about discipline or calorie counting. … though I was always surprised how quickly I felt hungry after this meal. Potatoes, bread, rice, pasta and other starchy carbohydrates: rolled oatsĭairy and alternatives: 2% milk (now I drink 3.25% milk)īeans, pulses, fish, eggs and meat & other proteinsįruit and vegetables: apple & cranberries Add a latte (made of 2% milk) and I thought it was a pretty good, roughly-balanced breakfast made mostly of whole foods, as recommended by the Eatwell Guide. Meanwhile I’d cut up an apple to throw on top. I stirred in some cinnamon and dried cranberries before microwaving them for one minute.
Until a few weeks ago I ate rolled oats (aka porridge) a few times a week for breakfast. Steel cut oats? I just heard about them recently.
