Simple steps to shape up
You can now start to make a few more tweaks to your eating habits.
Think about your portion sizes. Are they too big? Do you find you are full but end up clearing your plate anyway? Cut down on the amount you eat. Using a smaller plate can be a good trick to play on yourself as you do not feel you are missing out. Eating a little less is a good step towards sustainable weight loss.
It may be that you are actually eating too little at times. ‘Hey?’ You may ask. But think it through. Do you ever reach for an unhealthy snack as you get hungry mid-morning or mid-afternoon? It may be you are trying to be too ‘worthy’ at meal times and then giving in to unhealthy food when your body rightly tells you that you’re hungry. Another solution is to have a healthy option to hand and keep the unhealthy temptation out of harms way.
Eating more slowly is good on many fronts. Chewing foods properly is good for your digestive system. It allows you to enjoy the flavour of what you eat for longer – the other way to do this would have to be eating more. Slower eating also allows your body to control hunger better. If your food goes down without touching the sides by the time the message goes from your stomach to your brain to your shovelling hands which says ‘I’m full,’ you have already shovelled more food down you.
Very often people think they are hungry when they are actually dehydrated. In fact many people go through life dehydrated. Dehydration has a negative affect on your digestive system, your skin, slows recovery from exercise and can cause headaches. So be sure to drink plenty of water and if you feel hungry between meals try drinking a glass of water first. It may be you are actually just thirsty. Or you may be wanting to eat a snack just out of habit or the desire for a break. The water makes a healthy alternative.
