Writer's picture: Steven MichaelsSteven Michaels

1. Balanced Diet: Focus on a balanced diet that includes a variety of food groups, such as fruits, vegetables, lean protein, whole grains, and healthy fats.

2. Portion Control: Be mindful of portion sizes to avoid overeating. Use smaller plates if it helps control portions.

3. Reduce Sugary Foods: Minimize the consumption of sugary snacks, sodas, and desserts, as they can contribute to weight gain.

4. Limit Processed Foods: Cut back on highly processed foods, which are often high in calories and low in nutrients.

5. Increase Fiber: Incorporate high-fiber foods like whole grains, legumes, and vegetables to help you feel full and satisfied.

6. Lean Protein: Choose lean sources of protein like chicken, turkey, fish, and plant-based options such as tofu and legumes.

7. Healthy Fats: Include sources of healthy fats like avocados, nuts, and olive oil in your diet but in moderation.

8. Hydration: Stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Sometimes thirst can be mistaken for hunger.

9. Regular Meals: Avoid skipping meals, as this can lead to overeating later in the day. Aim for regular, balanced meals and healthy snacks if needed.

10. Mindful Eating: Pay attention to what you eat and savor each bite. This can help prevent overeating.

11. Physical Activity: Combine a healthy diet with regular physical activity for more effective weight loss and overall health. 2- 3 strength training days and 2-3 days of cardiovascular training. **45 minutes to an hour**
