weight lossI always tell my clients that weight loss is like a trekking trip. The right gear and the correct trail can help you through the trip. But a lot of pitfalls can hinder your weight loss trip.
So lets have a look at the pitfalls we can avoid to successfully lose weight, even if you have a good meal and exercise plan to follow.
You do not eat on time -Missing your meal timings is not a great idea. Most of the times I plan based on what timings are convenient, so that they can eat at their convenience. But if these timings are not followed, weight loss can slow down. keeping a lot of gaps between your meals can make your overeat later in the day.
Skipping meals for faster weight loss -My clients are eager to skip meals or commonly want to skip dinner and eat only fruits and salads. This is not advisable as our body craves for energy. Hence the best solution is to eat a small meal 2 hours before bed time which has good carbohydrates, protein and fats.
Poor priority to exercise -Exercise is very important to weight loss but skipping it arrests weight loss. See that you hit the gym at least 4 times a week if you want to look better.
Drinking less water-Drinking less water can dehydrate you as well as make you get confused with hunger and thirst cravings. Hence drink enough of water.
Chronic Sleep deprivation does not help -Sleep deprivation can stress your body and stress can increase your cravings. Hence get good 6-8 hours of sleep to be refreshed.
