20 Easy Ways to Keep Your Weight Under Control

11. Avoid liquid calories

Some of us believed that liquid calories from beverages like energy drinks, fruit juices, and other examples can help us in maintaining our weight. But NO. Even more, these drinks are bad for our health in several ways including obesity. Try to steer yourself toward healthier, lower calorie choices. Water, mineral water, and plain iced tea are great.

12. Replace fat with good and hearty oil

Instead of cooking your foods in animal fat, swap it for vegetable oils like coconut oil. It is believed that Coconut oil is high in fats called medium-chain triglycerides, which are metabolized differently than other fats. Benefits of consuming coconut oil includes boosting your metabolism and helps in reducing harmful belly fats.

13. Get enough sleep

Study shows that sleep deprivation causes weight gain and it can cause further effects like increase in appetite and prone to lots of stress. Getting enough sleep is incredibly important for weight loss, as well as to prevent future weight gain.

14. Zen your diet

We are guilty of not paying much attention of how we eat and because eating is a pleasurable activity, we tend to do more of it without being mindful of what we eat. And if we practice mindfulness in eating, we increase our awareness and it helps us make conscious food choices and eventually develop our awareness to hunger and satiety cues. Mindfulness eating shows significant effects on weight, eating behaviour, stress and overall health.

15. Never skip meals

Skipping meals would not help you maintain your weight, instead, you are likely prone to putting yourself to eat more than what you are required. People who are skipping meals tend to experience hunger pangs and then feel guilty after binging. So instead of doing this, it’s best to eat at least 6 times a day of healthy food choices, 3 healthy meals and 3 healthy snacks in between. If you’re struggling on the go, consider to sub in an easy weight loss shake instead of skipping.
