Top 10 Tips For Healthy Weight Loss & Nutrition Made Easy

Here are our top 10 healthy weight loss tips that make healthy weight loss & nutrition easy and fun.  These healthy nutritional eating tips apply to everyone including anyone interested in living healthy, long into the 21st century.

  1. When you first feel a pang of hunger, don't reach for  the regular sugary carbo snack, instead, reach for an 8 oz. glass of clean purified water.  This will suppress the feeling of hunger that's often mistaken when the body really wants water anyway.  Be sure you are drinking lots of clean water throughout the day because the last sign of dehydration is a dry mouth.

  2. At every meal time, stop eating when you are about 80% complete.  It takes the brain about 20 minutes to register food is on the way and this is a great way to control the serving size and still eat well.

  3. When indulging on "evil" foods like desert trays (we all do), don't try to eat them all!  Instead take 1 or 2 samples and really enjoy each without guilt.

  4. Eat lots of fresh fruits between meals and the best time to eat fruit is either 20 minutes before a meal or midway between meals as it help regulate your blood sugar and diminish cravings.

  5. Eat fresh vegetables* with every lunch and evening meal.   When you are selecting the main course always try to avoid mixing proteins (meats) with starches (breads and potatoes).

  6. Limit animal protein consumption to not more than 4-5 servings per week which means some days you should be consuming vegetarian dishes.

  7. Do substitute animal proteins with legumes, but start slowly.  You can use lentils, dry beans and peas and you'd be amazed at just how delicious the recipes are.

  8. Do not drink liquids with your meals.  If you are thirsty, try to have a glass of clean water 10 minutes or so before the meal.  While you are eating, you want your body to be efficient at digesting the foods and absorbing the nutrients you are consuming.  This also helps with natural body cleansing function & efficiency.

  9. Don't wait till you're starving to eat as this will only encourage binging.  Be sure to have a snack of veggies and a fruit with you between meals and drink water which will help avert feelings of starvation and cravings.

  10. Do overdose on vegetables!   Have 7-10 cups or more a day and look for ways to enjoy them raw like having a good dip.  When you want your veggies cooked, lightly stream them to persevere their essential nutrients.  (This really is healthy weight loss at its best, no one ever gained weight eating too many veggies!)

CAUTION: Don't try to do these weight loss tips all at once, that never works for most people! 

  • Choose just one healthy weight loss change then practice it everyday for a week or more.  If all is ok, add another weight loss tip.  However, if you have not mastered the previous step, do not add something new till you are comfortable with it.

  • Keep a log of everything you eat and drink throughout the day, every day.

* Canned and frozen fruits and veggies lose nutrient value rapidly so you you'll need to increase your servings to get the nutritional value of market fresh produce.  Organic is recommended to avoid the massive levels of chemical influences present due to modern mechanized farming methods.
