A Realistic Approach Label Ease Method KISS Principle When monitoring what you eat, just take it one meal at a time. Don’t overwhelm yourself. Just think, “all I have to do is ensure I eat something healthy and fresh this ONE meal.” Then worry about the next meal when it comes. When preparing your meals for the week, stay simple. Pick your 5 favorite proteins and carbs, and then mix and match them to make meals. Make sure you include some fresh vegetables along the way.
