There is no substitute for a comprehensive diet rich in fruits and vegetables and low in fats and sugars. However, if you're looking to start a new life with bit of quick weight loss to boost your morale and motivation, check out these tips:
Sleep
If you're feeling tired, you tend to move about less during the day. This translates into fewer calories burned. Studies show that people who sleep fewer than six hours a night are 27% more likely to become obese, so make sure you get enough rest by sleeping an average of eight hours a night.
Eat a lot
If you starve yourself, you will find yourself loading up on junk food that is not only filing but also fattening. Make sure you have plenty of low-fat, low-sugar food and fill up on these whenever ou start to feel hungry.
Consider simple and tasty options such as whole wheat toast, unsweetened muesli, low-fat yoghurt, fruit salad made up of papaya, apple, banana and melon as well as raw vegetable treats such as carrots, cooked pumpkin nd tomatoes.
Eat with class
Restaurant owners have known for years that sitting in brightly lit places with high energy yellow and red furnture encourages people to eat and leave quickly.
On the other hand, low lights and soothing colours such as blue and fawn encourage customers to linger. Scientists have discovered that sitting down adn taking your time also leads to better portion contorl. So when you eat, sit down, relax and enjoy your meal. If you use a smaller plate, you can also fool yourself into being satisfied with less.
