EATING THE RIGHT WAY

Eating is an art. We all know how to eat, when to eat and what to eat. It’s such a simple thing like breathing. Yet in fact we all go wrong. We flounder along the way; we gain weight, face issues and lose confidence. Why? All because we fail to eat correctly. These are steps we can follow to ensure a healthy lifestyle.

IT’S NOT WHAT YOU EAT BUT WHEN YOU EAT:

Prefix a fixed time and to the utmost stick to the timeframe and eat your meals within that range. Having meals at the same time tunes your body clock and helps you keep control of what you are eating.

SIT DOWN AND EAT:

It’s so easy and simple. Why eat in a hurry and when on the move? So take time to sit down and eat .it again helps you realize what you are eating and how much you are eating.

EAT WITHOUT DISTRACTIONS:

This is hard. Believe me it’s the hardest. But this is the main culprit to overeating. When you are reading, watching TV why even talking you are definitely bound to overeat. So try and avoid doing other things while eating.

SET A SMALLER PLATE:

Eat your meals in a smaller plate. It makes the food portion look huge and you can avoid eating more. It’s actually a psychological move.

EAT SLOWLY:

When you eat fast your stomach is unable to signal to your brain that you are feeling satiated and you will end up eating more. So chew your food properly and take time to enjoy your food.

AVOID HEAVY MEALS:

To the best of your ability avoid heavy meals at night.try to eat as early as possible. Digestion slows down and you end up feeling sluggish.

BREAKFAST:

Whatever you do or don’t never ever skip breakfast. It actually harms than helps. Skipping breakfast induces hunger pangs and causes us to overeat.

These are things we all know but tend to overlook. Being healthy should be a priority. We owe it to ourselves and also to the ones who love us.
