Start a Weight Loss Recipe Collection

One of the best tools for weight loss success you can use each day is a weight loss recipe collection

This is just what it sounds like; a collection of recipes that focus on healthy eating for weight loss.  Organize your recipe collection

Why is this such a powerful tool

Because next to not having enough time, one of the reasons why people give up on dieting is because they get bored and uninspired with the food choices.

 

If you start a weight loss recipe collection, you will arm yourself with endless great choices for delicious meals, snacks, soups, desserts, whole wheat breads, muffins, and so much more.

There are various formats you can use for your recipe collection.

 

- A good , old recipe box with index cards.

 

You may remember your mother or grandmother having one of these when you were a kid: a plastic box filled with index cards, upon which were handwritten family recipes. 

Well, you can start a brand new one just for healthy recipes! 

 

- A recipe scrapbook. 

 

If you prefer cookbooks to index cards, you can create your own cookbook by using a large scrapbook. 

Simply print or type your favorite recipes onto acid-free paper (so it doesn’t disintegrate over time), and stick them onto a page in the scrapbook. 

Add photos of the dishes if you like.  You can also split up your scrapbook into different sections for main dishes, desserts, salads, soups, etc.

 

- Become a recipe techie- Create an electronic recipe collection.

 

You may find it easier and more enjoyable to store your favorite recipes electronically instead of on paper, and there are several good ways to do this: 

  • Search out good recipes online and simply add them to your browser Favorites
  • Copy each one and save it as a document on your computer hard drive 
  • Download a healthy recipe app for your smartphone that allows you to search tons of healthy recipes and save your favorites.

 

Just creating this weight loss recipe collection isn’t enough of course – it’s important to actually USE it too! 

Each day (or at least a few times a week) pick a new recipe and try it.  Over time you’ll find some that you really love, but keep trying new ones too!

 

They say that variety is the spice of life – but it’s also the key to keeping your weight loss fun and interesting.
