RE: ✋🏾 5 Things That Helped Me Lose 6.5KG
One thing that I have understood is that sugar indee dis a real drug. It creates addiction and while evryone says that they know it I think we don' t really comprehend how serious and how bad it is. I am an absolute addict and I can fidn no strenght in saying NO to sweets. It might work for couple days when I am super motivated but then I fall back to binge-eating through everything that has chocolate in it.
What is your daily routing for eating? How many meals do you have? I know there are many different approaches and supposedly the right one is many meals and small portions. I' ve found out that that doesn't work for me at all. Then i started to monitor which is the time of the day when I am most hungry. My approach, which I am happy have worked quite well so far, was to cut on food for the meals I am not too hungry for, like breakfast )I know I know it is the most important meal of the day) and lunch because dinner for me is sacred. I LOVE to eat in the evenings. I have no idea how healthy or not it is but eating a bit for breakfast and lunch (still healthy choices though) and then being happy in the evening by feeling less guilty of eating all I want (most often also giving into my sugar addiction) has helped me out to balance calorie overload. :)
Best of luck with your goal. Discipline is the key. A hard key to find and keep but it is there! :)
Hey, thanks for the really useful comments :)
Yes, sugar is a terrible drug that we are ALL addicted to, and we don't notice how bad it is because it is always available - not like meth and others, so we don't see the withdrawal symptoms much. We can always run to the fridge/shops and get a fix.
I eat about 3 times a day at the usual times.. only I don't eat bread, pasta, cereals and potato. Also I try to stay away from high sugar fruits like Pineapple. Refined sugar is a NO-NO :) Basically some light meat, fish, eggs with a lot of veg. I'd say my diet is about 70% veg now, like leafy greens and cauliflower.
I think I'm used to it now and I don't get hungry anymore like in the beginning. I also think everyone is different to be honest. What works for me doesn't work for other people because our bodies are different. I also think breakfast is important (I will chose breakfast over lunch), but some people can survive without it haha. I cant. 😎
Thanks again 🙌🏿
