Fit Tip #75
Have grapefruits, pineapple and nuts as standing snacks that you can eat at anytime that you get hungry.
Fit Tip #76
Switch from grains like rice to roots like sweet potatoes and yams as a source of carbohydrates during the day. They are higher in fiber, have a natural and satisfying sweetness and helps you eat less.
Fit Tip #77
Don’t lower your fat intake too much! You need fats for testosterone production and most low fat products are actually worse than the natural ones.
Fit Tip #78
Drink more water. Everyone should drink 10 glasses to as much as a 3 litres of water every day depending on your weight and activity level. If you drink that much pure water every day, you won’t miss the high sugar and empty calorie juices.
Be sure to drink most of your water earlier in the day and stop drinking 2
hours before bed so it will not disturb your sleep.
Fit Tip #80
Don’t think in terms of “I will never eat x ever again” Such ways of thinking are counterproductive and can be somewhat overwhelming. Instead just go day by day.
Fit Tip #81
Don’t get stuck in junk food funnels. If you know you are going to the movies, a party, the gym or anywhere that you may get hungry and have only unhealthy choices, eat before you go or carry food with you.
Fit Tip #82
Believe in yourself. One of the most insidious aspects of weight loss marketing is that you need a pill, a powder or some external device to be able to get in shape.
You don’t need anything but exercise, patience, moderation and consistency.
Fit Tip #83
Accept that your friends or family may not necessarily be supportive. One of the common reasons why people don’t lose weight is because they feel sabotaged by the people around them. People don’t always mean to derail your efforts by offering you cake or something unhealthy to eat, but very often they do. Be aware that the decision to get into better shape is yours, not theirs and don’t expect others to always understand.
Fit Tip #84
When eating out skip the sauces. Almost any sauce you get in a restaurant adds extra and unwanted calories to your meal. Always ask for the sauce on the side or even better don’t ask for it at all.
