9 Weight Loss Tips For Women in Their 50’s
6. Remain motivated
It’s often the case that women give up easily at this age because they no longer have the motivation to stick to their weight loss plans. So bank on your family / friend support system and remain motivated. Alternatively, you can also join local support groups for additional motivation.
7. Don’t compromise on your sleeping time
Get minimum 8 hours sleep everyday. Proper sleep is essential for every weight loss plan. Sleep deprived bodies tend to be sluggish and deposit more fat and burn less calories. Also, you are likely to overeat with all that hormonal imbalance caused by lack of sleep.
8. Watch out for hypothyroidism
Hypothyroidism is a condition where your body produces less thyroid hormone thereby making you lethargic and prone to weight gain. This is very common in women with age. So watch out for this silent culprit by getting yourself checked for thyroid disorders at regular intervals.
9. Eat small frequent meals
It’s very important to reduce the portion size that you consume in one go. Aim for small but regular meals.
A healthy lifestyle with the right kind of diet and exercise will ensure that you gain success in your weight loss plans. All the best!
