[E89]Eat More Lose Weight

by Mn_nikk, Mn_

The annoying thing about diets is you tend to lessen the food you eat and get hungry easily. It's not easy to say no to delicious food when your stomach is so hungry craving for anything just to fill your tummy. Dieting is nonsense if you'll continue eating anything you feel like eating. In order to lose weight, you need to have a healthy eating plan that will keep you full for a long period of time. Losing weight without getting hungry? Yes, it's possible!

Being Aware of the Food You Eat

You have to eat MORE, not less, to stay full for longer but it all depends on the type and amount of food that you eat. Make yourself aware of what is in your food so that you'll know how much you can eat compared to other foods. For example, there are 100 calories in just ? of a cup of raisins but for 100 calories you can also have 2 ? cups of strawberries. Obviously, the strawberries will keep you full for longer as you will be having more of them for the same amount of calories as the raisins.

So, you need to know what you are eating and its equivalent in order to eat more and still lose weight.

Eating the Same Amount Every Day Is Essential

Diets fail because they lessen their food intake. Now basically your stomach is used to eating the same amount every day. It is not interested in how many calories you are taking in or how much fat is in each meal, it just wants the same amount every single day.

This means that you do have to find better foods which you can eat more of. One thing that you could do is to make your usual foods a little healthier by substituting something with something else. For example, if you enjoy a nice fried breakfast, you do not have to stop having your favorite meal completely and opt for a smoothie instead. All you have to do is grill various breakfast items such as sausages and bacon and that way you will cut down on quite a lot of the calories. So, you can still have your big breakfast, you just have to make it a little healthier.

You do need to eat as much as you currently were but you just have to make it healthier. You can have nuts, seeds and fruit for snack to ease any cravings and be more food conscious when creating a main meal. You have a choice of not getting hungry to lose weight when you're knowledgeable enough of the food you eat.

Proactol? is a clinically proven fat binder recommended by health professionals which can reduce your calorie intake by lessening your dietary fat intake by up to 28% when taken after meals.

Losing weight does not go hand in hand with feeling hungry all the time as some of you guys may worry about. Now I know you need to keep your stamina up (wink wink) so here are some healthy weight loss principles which will allow you to eat and lose weight – yes really! Let’s call it the eat more guide.

So eat more…………

Fruit and veg

Low in calories and fat but jam packed with lots of nutritional benefits. Use to bulk out a meal to fill you up or snack on fruit throughout the day to stop the hands delving into the biscuit tin mid morning!

Fibre

Helps the whole digestive process, plus wholegrains keep you feeling full for longer as they are a lower GI food (if you don’t know what I’m on about now just trust me on this one). Simple switches like trading in the white bread for brown or having wholegrain pasta and brown rice will have the pounds dropping off without you even feeling like you are trying.

Protein

Great if you are trying to build up muscle plus protein will keep you feeling full up for longer. So if you find you are snacking during the afternoon try adding more protein to your lunch. Add tuna, chicken or prawns to your sandwich or maybe a pasta salad and you’ll lose fat and retain more lean body mass. Some people, when dieting will end up losing muscle as opposed to fat if they are not careful, which is something I guess you lot don’t want.

Dairy

Go for the low fat varieties e.g. low fat yogurts, semi-skimmed milk, low fat cottage cheese. The result - strong bones, you’ll be thankful of that later on. Plus all that good bacteria in yoghurts will help keep you healthy.

Water

I know you are always being told to drink your 2 litres a day but that’s because it really does make a difference. It will raise your metabolism, and have your body working at its optimum. Plus thirst can often be mistaken for hunger as the trigger signals are the same for both. So keep sipping that water and you will reduce your calorie intake without even being conscious of it.

So then lads, what are you waiting for? Tuck in!!
