The Best Diet To Lose Weight

It’s not just important what you eat, but the way you eat
it, and your attitude towards food. This determines how
our body utilizes the food. For example, a meal eaten in a
hurry is not digested as well as a meal eaten in a relaxed
atmosphere. Let’s take a closer look at such factors and
how they affect you. There may be hundreds of diet plans in
the market, but this is the best diet to lose weight,
because it involves healthy eating habits. There is a
unique diet method that I have developed on my own, and it
has helped thousands of clients get results. You can view

To lose weight, stop eating before you are full.

Imagine your hunger as if it were on a scale from 1 to 5.

1 - you’ve eaten too much food and can’t stand the sight
of any more food.

2 - not hungry.

3 - starting to get hungry, about to enter ‘4′. Unlikely
to overeat.

4 - hungry, eager to grab some food.

5 - very hungry, will eat anything in sight! You are very
likely to overeat.

Never ever wait till you are at stage 5 before you eat.

This is exactly what happens when you skip a meal. You
reach stage 5 and more than likely overeat. Try and eat
when you are between stages 3 and 4. Stop eating when you
are between stages 2 and 3. In other words, avoid wild
fluctutions in your ‘hunger scale’. If you start to get
hungry, then eat something healthy. Carry balanced snacks
(more tips and ideas on that in the coming chapters). Dont
wait till you are starving and then binge (swinging from
stage 5 to stage 1). Also, stop eating as soon as you start
to feel even slightly full. Know when to stop!

To improve digestion, eat in a slow and steady manner.

It’s not easy to change your diet habits completely, and
neither is it recommended. The process of change should be
slow and gradual. If you try and change too many things too
soon, the effort becomes hard to sustain and turns into an
ordeal. Failure becomes inevitable. So its important to
break one bad habit at a time. If you try to stop eating
after 7 pm, quit eating chips, and snacking in front of the
TV all at once, you’re going to feel resentful and
deprived. You’ll end up bingeing. Stop one bad behavior,
and make healthier substitutions for the rest. Gradual,
positive changes can help you adopt new habits without
feeling deprived.

Always take your time at the table. In our time-starved
society, it’s easy to consume too many calories in too
little time. We tend to eat high calorie food, eat quickly
and take large bites. We don’t chew food as well as we
should. In a typical workday, we rush through our meals.
Our meals lack variety. We tend to stick with foods that we
are familiar with, and are easy to prepare. This limits our
nutritional intake and can cause deficiencies in some
vitamins and minerals. To make matters even more
complicated, there is always something going on while
eating - watching TV, talking on the phone, reading a book,
having a telephone conversation.

Let’s look at a different approach to eating. Let’s say a
typical meal consists of salad, a piece of meat, some brown
rice and a piece of fruit. The key is variety and
moderation. Eat slowly, appreciate the way food tastes,
smells and looks. Don’t get distracted while eating. Enjoy
food much more and eat less. Look at food as an experience
to be enjoyed.

Good luck with these food strategies. Eating food should be
considered an important and controlled experience, and
overindulgence should be avoided.
