Ways to lose weight without dieting
Use smaller dishes to reduce how much you eat by as much as 20%. , I use a bread and butter plate it is plenty big. If you use a large plate and fill it up you may be eating more than you realize. Most people clean up their plate when served a larger portion. Did you know that people who eat on a plate that is the same color as the food eat more, research shows people eat more when food is the same color as the plate.
Research shows that Americans get a fifth of their calories through the drinks they fill up on each day. Switch to water with lemon it will help you drop some pounds.
Remember when your Mom said, chew your food and eat more slowly. Well she was right on that count. Chewing your food better makes you eat more slowly, which is associated with decreased food intake, increased fullness and smaller portions.
Also research shows that people who eat fast gain more weight and people who take their time and eat more slowly lose.
Eating protein each meal helps you to lose weight. Protein takes longer to digest so it stays with you longer. If you are eating a grain based breakfast add a couple of eggs or some cottage cheese, maybe a small piece of meat. You will eat less the rest of the day.
Eat more fiber it keeps you full longer. A special kind of fiber, called viscous fiber, is particularly helpful for weight loss. It increases fullness and reduces food intake. When this kind of fiber comes in contact with water it forms a gel. It takes longer to digest and empty the stomach. Viscous fiber is only found in plant foods. Examples include beans, oat cereals, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, oranges and flax seeds.
Try snacking on lingonberries, a Scandinavian berry, new research shows that eating lingonberries almost completely blocked the effects of a high-fat diet by preventing weight gain and keeping blood sugar levels down. However, this is only been tested on mice no human studies have been done yet
Try and get eight hours sleep. Sleep is an important time to replenish your hormones, not getting enough sleep can cause you to
gain weight.
You’ll find that many diet programs have you getting recommend six small meals a day. They also recommend eating your main meal at noon, then eating a light supper. However, it really not letting yourself get super hungry and then grab whatever is handy. It is better to have a plan of what you are going to eat and when. It is also good to prepare it ahead of time so it is ready when you are hungry. One tends to overeat when you let yourself get too hungry or eat the wrong things like junk food just to appease your stomach.
Drinking more water is a great way to curb overeating It’s easy to get dehydrated, and many of us are and don’t even realize it. Drinking 2 or 3 glasses of water a half hour before a meal keeps one hydrated and it aides digestion. Studies show that people who do this lose weight. Thirst and being hungry can be confused so keep water near by. I keep mine in the fridge as I like cold water.
I fill a half gallon container and be sure I drink at least that much daily. I drink at least two full glasses when I get up in the morning to start the day hydrated.
Keep a food diary but instead of writing it down take pictures of your food every time you eat something with your phone.
You may see things like you need to eat smaller portions or you are snacking on fattening things for snacks.
These are just some hints of how to lose without dieting.
