14 Healthy Weight Loss Tips to Start Your Journey
1. Add things in before taking things away
Did you know that adding healthy habits in is much easier than taking away the unhealthy ones? Simple and inexpensive additions such as drinking an extra glass of water daily or taking a walk on your break can go a long way in helping you achieve your goal.
2. Start with something you like
It is recommended to begin your process with things you like. For instance, if carrots are your favorite veggie, eat more of them. If you are fan of biking, then bike! Initially, it is all about what you know you can stick with in the long run.
3. Make food switches
Swap processed and packaged foods with whole fruits, veggies, meats, and grains. Processed food is typically packed with sugar, salt, calories, and sugar, all of which you should avoid if you are to lose weight.
4. Eat proper portions
Overeating healthy food is still overeating! Eat proper portions and listen to your body. If you have already eaten a proper portion and still feel hungry, drink a glass of water and wait for a few minutes.
5. Slow down
Make sure you slow down and chew every bite properly. This helps avoid eating as much as you thought you needed, meaning eating more than your body actually needs.
6. Drink more water
Dehydration makes you sluggish, fat, and tired! Swap all drinks during the day with water and you will be less hungry, more energetic, and you will eat less empty calories and sugar.
7. Stop putting sugar in your coffee
Stop adding sugar to your coffee as it is toxic to your body in many ways than one and is spiking your insulin. In general, you should eliminate sugar from your diet, not the fat.
8. Add an extra serving of vegetables each day
Eat more veggies, especially leafy greens. This provides the body with the needed fiber, vitamins, and minerals- all of which fill you up in a healthy way!
