‘My Diet Planner’: Eating Healthy, Dieting and Exercising in the New Year

Dec. 29, 2011 - PRLog -- With a new year comes the New Year's Resolution and a chance to start fresh. Most people want to discover the best diet plans that work for them, start eating healthy and keep an exercise program. Learning how to tackle these areas takes a small commitment, but it can be done with the right tools and planning. With “My Diet Planner,” you can tackle your new year’s resolution and record all your important information in one place. Don’t let life’s demands overwhelm you. Five tips will get you started on your goal.

1. Decide what your goals are and write them down under “My Goals.” Here you can record your start date, your current weight and your ultimate goals.

2. Use the monthly view page to record goals by month. If you are trying to lose weight, maintain your current weight, or gain weight, you can jot down your starting and ending weight in the boxes for each month.

3. When you review your goals, don’t stress out if the list looks impossible. Take one goal at a time. Once one goal is reached, you will feel like you accomplished something and then will move on to the next goal with newfound energy.

4. Write everything down in your planner. With everything in one place, you won’t have the hassle of remembering what you ate last week or how many miles you walked. Just check your organizer for this important information.  

5. Reward yourself. For example, if you ate healthy all week and kept to your exercise plan, give yourself a reward. Log rewards in the planner at least once a week under “Notes.” A reward could be something as simple as dinner out at any restaurant – add several reward points for a new outfit at the end of the month.


“My Diet Planner” includes a one-year food and exercise journal. Whether you're trying to lose weight or maintain a healthy lifestyle, with “My Diet Planner” you can record what you ate for breakfast, lunch, dinner and for a snack. If you exercised that day, record it on that day's entry. You'll find a place for daily notes, and a notes section in the back. No more worrying about whether you ate that chocolate cake the other day, or if you walked one mile instead of five. With “My Diet Planner,” all you need to do is flip back to that day's entry and check what you ate or how much you exercised. And if you're really watching the pounds, each day has a place to record your weight. If you want to lose, gain, or maintain your current weight, you'll know exactly where you stand after each week, month, and at the end of your year. Got goals? Jot them down on the ultimate or monthly goals page before you start your one-year food and exercise journal. Use “My Diet Planner” to stay motivated, reach your goals, and watch how you progressed throughout the year. “My Diet Planner” can be started at any time of the year. This book is large enough to store all your information, and small enough to slip into your laptop bag.

“My Diet Planner” is available at most online bookstores, including amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com.
