No Diet, Diet – Hints
For most of people the word “diet” means a period of time where they attempt to restrict what they eat in order to lose weight. Instead think of the word diet as a lifestyle choice of being in command of what you eat. You can do this by picking one of the techniques below as something that you can choose to do now and then do it. When you get bored with it or it becomes a habit move onto the next ‘select to do’ tip. The first tip to use will sound counter-intuitive but it is a really good way to dump the traditional diet way of thinking.
Eat small, eat often
Unless you eat at consistent, regular intervals throughout the day, you might well unsettle your blood sugar and insulin levels. This can lead to additional fat storage and reduce your metabolic rate. Either of these factors can lead to additional weight gain. So to start your no diet weight loss eat something every few hours and never let yourself get hungry from one main meal to the next. Keep in mind little and often might actually help you regain command of your eating habits. Because of this it is important not to skip breakfast as research proves that those who skip breakfast eat more during the rest of the day, in addition breakfast helps to kick start your metabolism.
When eating main meals don’t eat too much.
Be aware of your portion sizes. Whatever portion size you currently have, reduce it by five percent. In reality this may make no difference to how full you feel afterwards but will impact on the amount of calories that you take in. Also by doing this consciously, you’ll start to feel better as you are taking command. Remember after a meal you should feel satisfied not bloated.
Clean your teeth after each main meal.
Do this for two reasons; firstly the action of cleaning your teeth signals the end of mealtime and prevents you from consuming more; secondly cleaning your teeth changes the flavours in your mouth and over time this becomes a powerful signal that it’s time to stop consuming.
Work that body!.
You will know this already but research proves that any extra exercise plays a vital part in no diet weightloss. The trick is to find an activity that you can do in addition to whatever you do now – even something as simple as taking the stairs rather than the elevator every now and again would be a good start. Find an activity that fits your lifestyle that you enjoy doing and go do it.
Four Bites And You’re Out!
We all eat things that we know will not help our weight because they are usually the things that taste so good! So when you do have the urge to stray keep in mind that you taste 100% of the first bite; 50% the second bite; 25% the third bite; and 0% the fourth bite. That’s good, because you get all the ‘sugar hit’ benefit from the first four bites – anything after that you won’t really taste and may simply put on weight. It’s much better to save the rest of the chips, cookies, cakes, chocolate etc until the next time you get the need.
