Eating for quick weight-loss can be healthy when done correctly. Weight-loss is associated with a fast metabolism so creating a quick metabolism environment in your body is very simple with a little discipline and habit.
Gage what your body type is by visiting a health expert or by seeing the changes in your moods, weight drowsiness or bloated feelings when you eat certain foods. Listen to what you’re body tells you in response to what you put inside it.
Choose to be wise about your weight and avoid settling for extremes; if you don’t feel comfortable with a new eating pattern you’re adopting change it up and pick other alternative foods that will get everything your body needs to have energy throughout the day on a daily basis.
Eat more than 3 meals a day. Avoid the traditional 3 meals a day idea and stick to 6-8 small meals a day. This may sound like a lot but it’s very simple; every time you eat one of those meals eat half and save half for two hours later. Do this with every meal and you’ll have six small meals a day, no problem. You’ll be well on your way to increasing your metabolism and away from the fat storing mode that you’re in right now.
Learn to Snack. Snacking healthily is essential in maintaining your weight and giving your body time to lose that weight. Don’t cancel all your discipline and practice with unhealthy snacks, like chocolate bars, muffins, sugary breads and pastries etc. A fruit mix with sliced pineapple, pears, mangos etc can be found in street stands in most cities across the world and it’s a fresh, healthy way to snack.
What should I eat? A plate of food for someone who is trying to stay on the toned side, will include lean protein (chicken, fish, beef, steak), slow digesting carbs and lots of vegetables. Keep fried or breaded chicken to an absolute minimum, most foods dunked in hot oil absorb allot of fat your body doesn’t need. You can grill your lean proteins or you cook in olive oil if you’re going to deep fry you meats.
Slow digesting carbs are ideal if you want to feel satisfied with your meals and not feel the urge to snack or if you want to avoid drowsiness after your meals. These carbs release energy slowly in your body which gives you energy throughout the entire day.
White rice or white pasta should be avoided at all costs if you’re trying to lose wight, these are fast digesting carbs which will cause allot of imbalances in your body which will not let you burn your fat easily. Choose a whole wheat bread or wheat pasta but adopt portion control with your carbs in order to keep your blood sugar stable and not store fat as energy.
Most of your Carb’s source should be coming from fibrous carbs like green leafs.
Lean Protein: Chicken, Fish, Beef,
Slow digesting Carbs: Whole wheat Bread, Brown Rice, Brown Pasta (Should contain allot of fiber).
Vegetables (in Generous Portions): Beans in all its forms, Coli greens, Spinach, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Green Beans, Broccoli
Fats: Cook meat with Olive Oil, snack on Nuts (if you’re not allergic).
