· Drink more water
When we are dehydrated, our body will actually increase hunger as food also contains water. As a result, we experience a strong urge to eat, even if we just ate an hour ago. In addition, even if you are not hydrated, drinking water 30 mins before a meal can help you to eat less, and help you lose weight over the long term.
· Eat more fruits and veggies
Consuming fruits and vegetable with a higher fibre content and lower glycemic index would be more likely to lead to a healthy weight. Fruits overall – especially berries, apples and pears – contributes to weight loss. Greater weight loss is linked to higher fibre, lower-glycemic vegetables, especially vegetables, such as broccoli, cucumber, bottle gourd and cauliflower.
· Limit Snacking
Snacks generally are eaten on the go, in a hurry, out of a box, and with very little intention. Have you ever noticed that when you start to snack on something, more often than not, you can’t stop? Snack foods are rarely the healthiest choice! Many snack foods are high in fat, salt, or sugar; at least the tastiest ones are!
· Minimize Liquid Calories
Fluid calories do not hold strong satiety properties and does not suppress hunger. Hence, it is observed that when drinking fluid calories, people often end up eating more calories overall.
· Eating protein with your meal
When it comes to weight loss, protein is one of the most powerful tools because it not only helps to keep you full, but also can help you to burn more calories throughout the day.
· Exercise Regularly
If you hate going to the gym then at least perform some form of exercise to make you feel better. What about brisk walking, walking your dog, jogging, swimming (if possible), or cycling? The basic point is, get 30-45 minutes of exercise every day. Start slow, learn correct technique, prepare your body and mind, and then give your 100% while you exercise.
