3 Ways to Ease Into Weight Loss
Getting off the ground in any weight-loss routine is often the hardest part. But once you start, the healthy lifestyle will become a healthy habit. Dr. Madelyn Fernstrom shared five great tips with our readers. Here, we share three.
- Focus on what you can eat instead of what you need to limit. Avoid deprivation by choosing lots of high-fiber, high-water foods, like fruits and veggies, which help you stay fuller longer. Foods with abundant fiber and water give you more volume without adding extra calories.
- Get enough sleep. When you're sleep deprived, you tend to eat more to feel more energized. When you're tired, you're also more likely to lose mental focus and discipline from fatigue (well, fried zucchini is a vegetable, after all).
- Learn to eat for hunger, not the clock. This is a tough one, and forces us to get back in touch with our biology. Figure out if you're a three-times-a-day eater, or if you feel more comfortable dividing those three meals into six mini-meals for the day. Avoid skipping meals, which just makes you more hungry for the next meal.


Hope they help someone :)
Hmmm...never really followed these.
Just did it by being here and following your challenges for every month Hugs.
That is what helped me most.
