Healthy Weight Loss Tips

Losing weight is a challenge. Knowing how to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way is even more challenging. Being mindful of the sugar and wheat carbohydrates consumption can go a long way toward reaching weight loss goals and maintaining a healthy weight. Here are some tips to help you stay on track.

Healthy Eating Habits

•Limit added sugars and be aware of tricky names for sugar
 
•Focus on natural sugars found in fruits, berries, and vegetables
 
•Be mindful of honey consumption, even in "paleo" recipes
 
•Control carb intake to 100 grams per day to regulate calorie consumption
 
•Plan carb intake around workouts and choose specially formulated workout nutrition drinks for recovery
 
•Avoid eating 3 hours before bed and always eat breakfast for optimal fat loss and overall health

The 11.5 Hour Fast & Wheat-Free Diet

•Frontloading calories (eating more earlier in the day and less in the evening) is more effective than backloading calories, curbing overeating and snacking at night. Eating breakfast, particularly a high protein breakfast, normalizes neurotransmitters regulating food intake.
 
•Overeating at night and hormonal imbalance can cause aversion to eating breakfast. A protein-heavy breakfast is less likely to be stored as body fat, while big nighttime meals are quickly stored as fat.
 
•Not eating wheat can eliminate foods contributing to weight gain, reducing cravings and restoring natural appetite-signaling and satiation mechanisms.
 
•Adopting a wheat-free diet eliminates foods such as pastries, bread, pastas, and cereals that may contribute to weight gain and cravings.
 
•Consistently following the "don't eat wheat" rule can result in a drop in "wheat addiction" within 5 to 28 days and may help in weight loss.
