This is a big problem. According to my experience, a continuous diet helps to regulate appetite and better support metabolism, energy and digestive health. My customers with irregular diets are more likely to eat too much or too little. Both of them have problems, because insufficient diet will hinder metabolism and lead to the rebound of overeating.
For most of my clients, a good rule of thumb is to eat within one hour after getting up, not more than four to five hours. This may mean breakfast at 7 am, lunch at noon, snacks at 3 pm and dinner at 7 pm. Once you are in trouble at mealtime, your body will often feel hungry at the expected mealtime/snack time, longing for balance, which means that you will stop eating when you are full. I also suggest that you leave at least two to three hours between your last meal and going to bed. When your body is preparing to fall asleep and can't burn excess fuel, this will provide you with digestion time and avoid eating at the least active time.
Develop a balanced diet strategy
Most of my last weight loss book, Weight Loss Now, was based on the idea of making food like clothes. After you get dressed, you need tops, bottoms and shoes. You can run away without socks, but you won't wear two pairs of pants, a coat or two pairs of shoes at the same time.
Similarly, the basis of a healthy diet includes three core parts: non-starch vegetables (think above); Lean meat protein (bottom consideration); And so fat (think about shoes). These basic foods can support the construction of black people, help them to carry out metabolism, and constantly maintain and repair cells in the body-from immune cells to hormones, red blood cells, enzymes that digest food, hair, skin and organs.
In this core trio, add what I call "energy accessories" (also known as healthy carbohydrates). You can use it as an addition to a meal, such as putting on a coat, carrying a schoolbag or wearing a hat or scarf. These high-quality carbohydrate foods include whole grains, starchy vegetables, beans (beans, lentils, peas and chickpeas) and fruits, which can provide energy, promote cell activity and help cells function. Cutting them off completely will lead to fatigue and take away important nutrients from your body, including fiber, prebiotics, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. However, excessive use of carbohydrates will lead to excessive oiling (excessive decoration) and interfere with weight loss.
In order to achieve a proper balance, matching your carbohydrate content with your body's energy needs is just like wearing a heavy coat in cool weather and a light hoodie in warm weather. This clothing analogy can help you understand the imbalance and how to adjust the diet that can not only lose weight but also nourish your body. For example, the substitutes for burritos are not only vegetables and protein, but also vegetables and protein, avocado and a spoonful of brown rice.
Contrary to what many people think, a balanced diet does lead to weight loss (albeit slowly). In order to lose weight, there is no need for extreme exercise. In the long run, this reasonable dietary balance is also more sustainable.
