Thursday, August 18, 2022
If you’ve watched more weight loss workouts than you’d like to admit or eaten grapefruit for breakfast lunch or dinner, then read on to learn tips for successful weight loss.
Do you:
-
Eat too many refined grains (white bread or rice)?
-
Eat big portions?
-
Skip meals?
-
Eat a lot of meals away from home?
-
Graze all day on high-calorie snacks?
-
Frequently drink high-calorie coffee drinks, juice drinks or regular soda?
-
Consume too much alcohol?
-
Eat for emotional reasons?
-
Eat in front of the screen like your phone or computer?
Changes are coming
-
OK, let’s get real. Pick at least one habit from above and work on changing this habit. For example, try limiting sweets and treats to only 200 calories a day, cutting out fried foods or only eating out once per week.
-
Replace the old habit with a new lower calorie habit, such as trying new fruits or vegetables or a new type of exercise class.
On track
-
Self-monitor. You can do it. Studies show that people who self-monitor their meals lose more weight and keep it off.
-
Weigh yourself. The most successful “losers” tend to weigh themselves about once a week.
