9 good habits to help lose weight naturally without dieting
No need for strict diets or exhausting workouts, just establish these few simple habits and you will have a slim figure.
Wear a tight belt Before lunch or dinner, tighten your belt a little more. When it feels too tight, it is time to stop eating. This simple trick will help you avoid eating more than your body actually needs. |
Drink water from a tall glass Using a tall glass to drink water helps you to replenish more water for your body. This means you will not feel too hungry, constantly craving snacks. |
Set meal times When you don't have much time for meals, you often try to eat quickly, can't chew thoroughly and most likely eat too much compared to your body's actual needs. Arrange your time to have at least 20 minutes for each meal, sit down at the table, eat slowly and chew thoroughly. |
Hot bath According to research by scientists at Loughborough University, UK, taking a hot bath for an hour can help burn up to 130 calories, equivalent to a 30-minute walk. |
Always have fruit available at home Instead of hoarding candy, always have a plate of fruit on the table. This is an effective way to help you eat more fruit and limit unhealthy snacks. |
Sitting next to the dining table If you are attending a large party, do not sit in the center of the table but sit at the side of the table. This will keep you from reaching all the dishes on the table, so you will not eat too much. |
Keep your spirits up When you are in a happy and relaxed mood, you will have a better appetite and digest food more easily. If you are in a bad mood, you may constantly crave food, especially foods rich in starch and sugar. |
Divide food into small pieces Dividing your food into smaller portions helps you eat slowly and chew more thoroughly. This is a great habit for your digestive system and your waistline. |
Imagine a meal Research by scientists at Carnegie Mellon University has shown that people who regularly imagine delicious meals will eat less in reality than those who do not often think about food. So feel free to imagine a delicious steak or a piece of rich chocolate cake, this is also an effortless way to lose weight. |
