It is not easy to stay trim and slim as it requires your self-control and discipline. You should bear in mind with some important points highlighted here
1. Avoid nibbling on sweet food like cakes, biscuits, sweets, lollipops, candies and chocolates. If you could not stop from a sweet tooth, then go for carrots, cucumbers or apples instead of sweetened foods.
2. Do not overeat. Prepare and cook only the amount of food you should eat, so that you will not be tempted to finish all the leftovers. Use a smaller-sized plate for a smaller serving purpose. Cut down unnecessary diet which will make you feel parts of your anatomy getting heavier. Do not encourage supper or any meals after 10p.m.
3. Exercise regularly to burn off extra calories. Alternatively, you can do some household chores such as mopping, washing and gardening. Apart from gaining health rewards, your slim waistline could be maintained by doing such consistent activities.
4. Increase food rich in fiber is a wise move to stay slim. Cut down on red meat and eat leaner meat in smaller portions. Avoid inflammatory foods such as trans-fats, deep-fried meals. Adopt diet rich in organic vegetables, fruit and grains.
5. It is advisable to boil, poach or steam food instead of frying. Food high in oil content not only makes you put on weight, but also increase your heart attack risk.
6. Always drink a glass of good water before a meal as it will make you feel full and cause you to consume less food
Remember! Do not eat for habit, but eat only for hunger. Do not overeat because of stress or as an antidote to boredom. Consider food as a source of energy; keep yourself discipline and self-control, if you are serious to make yourself look slim, trim and beauty.
An effective weight loss program requires positive attitude, consistent exercise and a low diet in sugar and fat content but rich in plant proteins, vitamins and fiber.
