10 Things to Keep in Mind If You Wish to Lose Weight
6. Never go to a party completely hungry
Have a nutritious soup before going to a party. This way you are likely to consume fewer portions of high calorie foods served in the party.
7. Start gradually
You can’t have a party one day and go dieting the very next day. When you try to leave every food that you love in one go, it normally never succeeds. After few days, you start craving too much and find yourself back to square one. So start gradually. For example, first stop eating pizzas, then rich creamy pies and so on.
8. Never skip breakfast
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. If you are hungry in the morning, you’ll stay hungry throughout the day. So by skipping breakfast, you actually end up eating more and heavy meals during the day.
9. Choose smart alternatives
If you can’t leave bread, then substitute whole wheat bread in place of white bread. Go for dairy products made from skimmed milk rather than whole milk. By making such smart choices, you can bring down your calorie intake.
10. Keep encouraging yourself
With every ounce that you lose, give a pat on your back and keep moving ahead. Every once in a while, you can give yourself a treat by having a very small portion of your favorite food that you had to leave because of dieting. But make sure such treats are not frequent.
So keep these simple things in mind and continue losing weight!
