Here are five nutritional tips to help you achieve the 70%:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Try drinking a large glass of water 10 to 15 minutes before a meal. The water will partially fill your stomach and may reduce your hunger levels.<\/li>\n<li>If you find yourself eating chocolate or lollies in between meals, try eating a handful of unsalted nuts instead. While some nuts are relatively high in fat, the fat they contain is the &#8216;good&#8217; fat that our body needs to stay healthy.<\/li>\n<li>If you are a weekend food binger, plan your meals and snacks ahead so you have plenty of healthier snacking options in the house.<\/li>\n<li>Use smaller plates to control the portion sizes as most of us will eat everything on our plates. If you are still hungry, wait 20 minutes before going for seconds.<\/li>\n<li>When eating out, always choose the smallest portion size available and fill up with a side salad (preferably one without the creamy dressing).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; If you&#8217;re serious about losing those unwanted kilos, then you need to follow the &#8217;70-30 Rule&#8217;, which basically means that 70% of your effort should be spent on nutrition and 30% on exercise.&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5,6],"tags":[52,51,34,33],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/696"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=696"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/696\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1726,"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/696\/revisions\/1726"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/healthjigsaw.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
