1. Start With Something You Like
Start with something that you will enjoy. If you like swimming, you can start to swim in order to do some exercise. If you do what you like, it will be much easier.
If you like to eat oranges, you can consume more of that. You can start with more easy changes, and with time you can try to include the more challenging changes.
2. Add Before Taking Away
Instead of being focused on the unhealthy habits and trying to get rid of them, you can simply focus on adding healthy habits into your daily life.
Remember to add, before you take away. It is much easier and less stressful.
You can start with something small such as walking your dog or drinking more water on a daily basis.
3. Drink Water
One of the reasons behind the tiredness, obese and sluggishness is dehydration. Instead of drinking soda or juice, you can drink water.
In that way you will be less hungry, have more energy and consume less sugar than you usually do.
4. Make Food Switches
You can replace the packaged and processed food with meat, grains, vegetables and fruits.
The processed foods have a high content of calories, sugar, salt, and fat. Also, they have preservatives and additives.
In order to have a healthier diet, make sure to prepare your own food.
5. Eat Proper Portions
Overeating is overeating, never mind if you are overeating with junk or healthy food. Try to listen to your body.
If after you eat a proper portion, you still feel hungry you need to take a moment. Stop, do not continue to eat, instead drink a glass of water and wait around 20 minutes.
These 20 minutes will allow your stomach to transfer the signals to your brain, in order your brain to tell you that you are not hungry anymore.
6. Slow Down
We live fast, run a fast life, everything goes quickly, and in turn, we do not pay attention to the amount of food we consume. We most usually do this, when we watch TV.
So, do not watch TV while you eat and try to chew slowly. In this way, you will be aware of the amount of food you consume, and you will eat less.
