I do all of these, I also do intermittent fasting. I don’t get fat even if I eat a lot! Anyways, thank you for sharing this information. This is really helpful for anyone who wants to lose weight.
Sleep and water are some of the most overlooked things, but are so important! One thing I’ve started doing is fully chewing each bite before taking another one. It makes me eat way more slowly. I end up getting full faster and eating way less!
Very timely with great advice. Thanks for sharing this!
Kudos to people that follow dieting when they decide to, I currently don’t need it, I need a way to gain weight, but these tips might be helpful to obtain a healthy lifestyle, you shouldn’t throw out the unhealthy foods, just lessen the intake of them, and I didn’t know that dancing could help with leading a healthy lifestyle.
Great tips. I love many of the things mentioned already. Water, green tea, and dancing.
This gives me so many new ideas for after the holidays!
I follow most of these guidelines in my everyday life! Even in breakfast, I don’t eat a lot of sugary foods but more of a well-balanced meal.
These tips are important to weight loss that lasts. All those gimmicky diets and suggestions are short term and don’t help people develop a lifestyle change.
Great tips, these! It’s not easy at first, but once you get into a routine it becomes a lot easier to remember to exercise and eat well, I think.
