Healthy weight loss tips #1: Eat five meals a day
 |
| Eating five meals a day is not a good weight loss advice |
Why it doesn't work: Consuming about 1,800 calories a day, this means you have to comsume 360 calories each meal, as much as calories in one of our Morning Glory Muffins. But eating this way makes most of us feel not quite full all day long - that leads to the disaster when snacks show up in the office or your kids leave food on their plates. In addition, it means eating out of sync with other people.
Healthy weight loss tips #2: Cut out carbs
Why it doesn't work: The research on carbohydrate intake is often misunderstanded, said Chrissy Carroll, RD, MPH, founder of Inspired Wellness Solutions, LLC. "It is true that excessive intakes of refined carbohydrates, like white rice or white bread , may lead to weight gain. But no research suggests that healthy carbohydrates, such as fruits, whole grains, vegetables, or legumes, can impact negatively weight or health. On the contrary, many studies showed that a diet high in these plant-based foods is associated with better overall health."
Healthy weight loss tips #3: Don’t eat after 7 p.m
Another bad weight loss advice is eating after 7 p.m
Why it doesn’t work: If you eat reasonable quantities of healthy foods throughout the day, we're sure that you obviously can have an evening snack, even if it's something salty or sugary. There's no study that comsuming calories later in the day makes your weight gian. In addition, if you go to the gym right after work, when else are you supposed to eat?
Healthy weight loss tips #4: Don't eat fat
Why it doesn’t work: Your body needs fat just as it needs protein and carbs. With fat, food becomes more delicious and it also keep you satisfied. Low-fat on food labels usually translates into high-sugar, which certainly doesn't help you lose weight.
Healthy weight loss tips #5: Drink your veggies and fruits
Why it doesn't work: Many people think that shoving some servings of vegetables and fruits into a juicer is an efficient and simple way to get the daily recommended amounts, but this comes at a cost, said Batayneh. "Unfortunately, vegetables and juicing fruits removes one of their most valuable ingredients: Fiber. Found in the skin, pulp, and seeds, fiber’s list of benefits ranges from maintaining stable blood sugar levels to filling you up." If you juice more sweet stuff (like carrots) than green stuff, you will seriously spike your sugar.
Healthy weight loss tips #6: Eat as few calories as possible
Why it doesn't work: "Ugh, the worst tip ever," said Carroll. "By cutting your calories too low, you will make your metabolism slow down" But a reasonable goal is to cut about 500 calories per day through exercise and diet, which helps reducing one pound per week.
Healthy weight loss tips #7: Too much sugary fruit makes you fat
Why it doesn't work: The sugar in fruit doesn't make you fat, because it's unprocessed sugar found in its most natural state, said Psota. "Plus cutting fruit out of your diet is a bad choice because you will miss all the fibers. Fiber keeps you full and the nutrients in the fruit nourish your body, which far outweighs the concern of natural sugar that you are consuming when eating, say, an apple."
