The Secret to Keeping The Weight Off For Good

Dieting can be a frustrating and never-ending cycle for many people. You lose weight, but then gain it back, and the cycle starts all over again. But what if I told you that there is a way to break this cycle and keep the weight off for good? It's all about making sustainable lifestyle changes, rather than just following a strict diet for a short period of time.

Here are five key points to help you make these changes and achieve lasting weight loss success:

1. Focus on whole, unprocessed foods- Rather than cutting out entire food groups or following a restrictive diet, try incorporating more whole, unprocessed foods into your meals. These foods are nutrient-dense and will help you feel full and satisfied, rather than deprived. 
2. Eating Intentionally- What order you eat your food matters. Eating protein and vegetables before carbohydrates can help regulate blood sugar levels and promote satiety. Protein and fiber-rich vegetables can slow the absorption of carbohydrates, preventing blood sugar spikes. 
3. Intermittent fasting- Is beneficial for the digestive system, by giving the digestive system a rest. When we eat, our body diverts blood flow and energy to the digestive system to process the food. While fasting, the body doesn’t need to devote as much energy to digestion, and reduces inflammation and improves overall gut health. It also leads to calorie reduction because it helps reduce appetite and increase feelings of fullness. This can make it easier to stick to a healthy calorie intake.
4. Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine- Exercise is important for both physical and mental health. Find activities that you enjoy and that fit into your lifestyle, rather than trying to fit in a specific workout program.
5. Avoid empty calories- Many sugary drinks like lattes and alcoholic beverages provide little to no nutritional value and are often referred to as "empty" calories. Cutting back on these types of drinks can help you focus on consuming more nutrient-dense foods.
6. Eat more protein- A high protein diet boosts metabolism, reduces appetite, and changes several weight-regulating hormones. Eating more protein reduces hunger, leaving less room for bad carbs or sugar. Your body will use protein to build muscle tissue, so calories won't go to waste being stored as fat. It is recommended to eat 1g. of protein per pound of body weight.
