5 Best Eating Tips For Weight Loss In The New Year

ACCORDING TO NIELSEN RESEARCH, the top 5 new year's resolutions last year included staying fit and healthy, losing weight, as well as enjoying life, spending more time with family and spending less / saving more money. The article goes on to explain that fresh fruits and veggies were our top weight loss food choices, but 76% of people did not follow a weight loss or diet program in 2014 and "65% of U.S. consumers say they plan to exercise more this year, while 33% and 31% plan to focus on portion control and calorie reduction". *

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU? Its pretty much the same old story ... We set a goal to lose weight, get fit and healthy each year but have the habit of not following through on everything it takes to accomplish our weight loss goals even though we've done better at choosing more fresh fruits and veggies over junk food.

I think I'm safe in saying that losing weight, getting fit and healthy is at the top of your resolutions list this year. If so, make sure to subscribe to this blog to follow along for motivation, tips and weight loss support in the new year.

5 BEST EATING TIPS FOR NEW YEAR WEIGHT LOSS !!!

Even More Fruits and Vegetables To Your Diet

Vegetables and fruits are packed with compounds that improve health, such as vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fiber. Increasing your consumption of these highly nutritious foods can help manage your blood pressure, cardiovascular health and regulate your blood sugar. They also help with your weight loss goals because high fiber fruits and vegetables fill you up so that you eat less meat and carbohydrates. Too much protein and carbs can be the ruin for many types of diets because the extra calories are converted to excess sugar and then turns to fat in your body. This is why eating more green veggies (especially green leafy vegetables) and low sugar fruits (like avocados and berries) should be a goal for your weight loss in the 2016 New Year!

Skip Sugary Drinks and Desserts

Consumption of sugar is associated with increased weight, diabetes, heart disease and even cancer. These risks increase in women over the age of 50 and are direct contributors to the climb in child obesity over the years. Sugary drinks and desserts are empty calories that add weight and provide little to no nutrition. Keep this in mind at the end of meals when it's time for dessert. Choose fresh fruit instead of sugary canned fruits; low sugar yogurt (some on the market have under 8g sugar) or frozen kefir bars (only 10g sugar and has 10 Probiotic Cultures) is an awesome substitution for refined sugar ice cream and milkshakes; desserts made with stevia and / or low carb (not using white flour, sugar, etc) will do your body better, too; and creating the habit of drinking tea, with stevia or honey, after meals can help you completely eliminate the urge for dessert, as well as wanting to eating later in the evenings. As for drinks, we all know that water does the body BEST, but sometimes we need to break up water drinking with low caffeine teas, low sugar fruit smoothies (w/ green veggies) and small amounts of freshly made juices. If anything, you can always add some fresh fruits and vegetables to infuse your water with nutrients, as well as add a little flavor. You can find some of these infused recipes by CLICKING HERE! Ditching sugary drinks and desserts will help with your weight loss in the 2016 year. These suggested changes will eventually help you feel satisfied after meals and crave sweet foods and drinks less, though with better consequences for your health.

Change The Order Of Your Meals

Diet experts recommend reversing the order of your meals. Breakfast should be the heartiest meal of the day. Lunch should be slightly less, but enough to fuel you through the day. Dinner should be the lightest meal to suit slower digestion during the night hours and lower energy needs during sleep. Eating light later in the day can also be helpful for anyone troubled by acid reflux when you lie down at night and the quality of your sleep in general, too. Changing the order of your meals is not an easy habit to make, though can really make a difference in your weight loss and health. I've even noticed that some of the raw food vegans I follow online eat their heavier gourmet meals earlier and have a large (maybe huge to us) salad in the evening with a salad dressing made of veggies and citrus. None of them are fat and have few to no health issues. Just saying ...

Dine In, Not Out

Research shows that diners consume more fat, sugar and salt when they eat in a restaurant than they do at home. Restaurant chefs are more concerned with pleasing their patrons' taste buds than managing their weight. You will do a much better with weight management in 2016 if you limit eating out as often, as well as if you control your consumption of these ingredients (fat, sugar, salt) when cooking at home. Invite friends and /or family over to try new recipes (let them cook for you, too). You can also join our Weight Loss Support Group to participate in our weight loss project. This will be a great way to have fun while learning how to cook and eat better; or at least how to limit your calorie intake so that you can lose weight without being hungry.

Cut Out Fried Foods - Eat Healthy Fats

Over the years, there has been plenty of advice and studies about how beneficial good fats are for your diet, weight loss and health. THIS IS TRUE, but for most of us there is still an understanding of proper food portions and calorie intake to keep in mind; even if you're doing the Atkins, Paleo and Ketogenic diet. Protein and fats add up quickly, therefore going over the proper intake for your body can contribute to weight gain, plateau, ketoacidosis or even metabolic acidosis. Frying adds a lot of flavor to foods, but the additional fat makes a significant difference when trying to lose weight. Studies on weight loss for older women show that removing fried food from your diet will help you lose weight faster, keep it off more easily and another benefit is better cardiovascular health. If you are not an older woman, eating less fried foods can be just as healthful for you now and when you are middle age, too. However, if denying yourself fried foods feel too much like a deprivation, then still have them as an occasional treat. But remember that "occasional" should mean "every once in a while" and eat proper portion sizes.
