Tips to reduce Obesity:
- Eat only when you are hungry : Instead of eating until your buttons pop, go slow and only eat until your belly is 80% full. It will help you avoid overeating. Also, your stomach will perform better with more space to produce digestive juices and break down food.
- Always observe the quantity you are eating: Downsize your dishes by using smaller plates, bowls and even serving spoons. If we use larger plates we obviously eat more food.
- Eat a healthy breakfast : Studies have found that those who skip breakfast and eat fewer times a day tend to be heavier than people who have a healthy breakfast and eat 4 or 5 times a day. So eat healthy breakfast.
- Try to identify your hunger: People always confuse thirst for hunger and end up eating a snack when the body is actually demanding water.So first try to identify whether it is a thirsty or hungry. Symptoms like headache and fatigue may also signal the need for more water in the body not the food.
- Limit high fat, highly processed foods: Always aim to avoid foods like: pastries, cookies, cakes, processed meats, frozen meals and TV dinners, canned foods with added sugars, chips and crackers.
- Include regular exercise & Get more sleep: It's important for you to include regular, planned and structured physical activity. This helps support your weight loss.
Studies show that those people who do not sleep enough or do not sleep well typically weigh more than those who do.So getting regular and restful sleep is very important to your health.
Also stress is a natural emotion that can affect everyone. However, when it's not managed well, stress can cause increased release of cortisol. This may increase your feelings of hunger, make you more tired and make your body "hang on to weight" more easily.
Eating tips:
- Try to include whole grain foods: oats, quinoa, brown rice, millet and whole grain bread, chapati etc.
- A great tip to help you manage calories and increase the nutrition of your overall diet is to make half of your plate with fruits or vegetables.
- Drink at least 3-4 litres of water every day.
Getting rid off obesity is this much simple but what you need the most is continuous effort and a good planning.
