- 1) Don't skip breakfast, starts your metabolism and helps prevent overtime. A cup of coffee does not count - caffeine and extra sugar may give you less energy and suppress your appetite for a short time will be causing you to go hungry, and you may overeat over time. Breakfast should include complex carbohydrates such as whole grains (granola or oatmeal), as well as protein and fat (low-fat yogurt or milk), which will maintain your energy levels and even hunger.
2) Eat more often, Practice eating every three to four hours or at least four times a day. Eating regularly stabilizes blood sugar, when your sugar, is too low you want to eat too much…. By keeping your blood sugar stable, you can control your appetite and keep your metabolism up. If you go for many hours without eating, your body will compensate by slowing down to save energy… this effect damages your weight loss efforts.
3) Eat Protein in All Foods Protein will help you lose weight, it takes a lot of energy and time to digest, you actually feel full longer than eating carbohydrates alone. Studies show that eating more protein can help you lose weight without cutting down on calories. Try these protein opportunities: turkey in whole wheat; hummus and pita; vegetable chili; fruits and nuts; or protein snack bars containing 12 grams or more of protein.
4) Stop eating junk food, Many of us take snacks to get quick energy when we feel tired. But do not confuse true hunger with fatigue. If you feel tired, go for a quick 15-20 minute walk. This will raise your heart rate and give you more energy. Follow with a large glass of cool water. If you are really hungry have protein and complex carbohydrates such as snacks; wheat crackers and peanut butter or cheese.
5) Eat enough us your body needs, eating too little reduces your digestive tract in the same way you do. If you want to lose weight, do not cut your calories too much. Instead, cut out the extra ingredients in your diet - things like soda, juice, packaged goods, or sweets. Digested foods are usually high in fat and calories as well as low in vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
