Whole foods
Food quality is just as important as food quantity. Eating healthy foods can improve your health and help regulate appetite. Sticking to things that are real most of the time in most cases is the best way to go for health and easy body composition management.
Poor sleep
Along with eating right and exercising, getting quality sleep is an important part of weight loss. Poor sleep may become a vicious cycle - the less you sleep, the more weight you gain, and the more weight you gain, the harder it is to sleep.
Binge eating
Binge eating involves regularly eating large portions of food all at once until you feel uncomfortably full and then often upset or guilty. Restricting your diet may lead to more binge eating.
Mindful eating
Mindful eating is all about paying attention to the way we eat. Research has shown eating mindfully improves digestion, regulates our appetite and helps us enjoy our food much more. It’s even dubbed the antidote to dieting, as tuning into what we eat can be enough to help us make better choices and avoid overeating.
Adjust your expectations
Not everyone can look like an amazing Instagram fitness model or bodybuilder. The photos you see in magazines or social media are usual photoshopped and almost nobody looks like that in real life.
Soda and sugary drinks
There's a surprising amount of sugar in popular drinks, so if you want to cut back on sugar, they're a great place to start.
