ISLAMABAD: You want to live a healthy life in the most effortless way possible? You want to get your diet and nutrition right because it allows you to do the more important things in life, but you also don’t want to spend all day thinking about what you eat?
Learn how to buy healthy food without thinking about it.
The main idea of most good diets is the same: eat whole foods that are unprocessed and that grew or lived outdoors.
Some of them have different variations, no animal products, no grains, etc. but most of them fit the general “real food” mold.
The best strategy is to surround yourself with healthy food.
When you go to the grocery store, you only walk around the “outer ring” of the store. The outer ring is where the healthy food usually lives: fruits, vegetables, lean meats, fish, eggs and nuts.
These are items that grew or lived outdoors. That’s what you should eat. The aisles are where all of the boxed and processed stuff is placed. Don’t go down those aisles, and you won’t buy those foods. Don’t buy those foods, and they won’t be around for you to eat.
Try this the next time you go to the store, and do your best to not to make exceptions.
Learn how to eat less without thinking about it.
A lot of people want to lose weight, burn fat and build a lean body. Maybe you do, too. The simplest way to do this is to buy healthier foods and eat less overall. If you combine these two strategies with consistency and exercise, then the rest usually takes care of itself.
Use smaller plates, bowls, pans, etc.
If you make less and serve less, then you will eat less. These strategies work much better than relying on willpower or counting calories. Multiple research studies have shown that you will always fill your plate to the brim and eat it clean. If you want to eat less, the easiest way to do so is to use smaller plates.
Eat fewer, but bigger meals.
Intermittent fasting is an eating schedule where you eat two bigger meals during an eight hour span instead of three or four smaller meals throughout the day. Then, you fast for the other 16 hours of the day.
In theory, you could eat the same amount of food during two meals as you could during three. In practice, however, most people end up eating less when they switch from three meals to two meals.
There is a certain amount of food that you consider to be a “meal,” and you tend to eat that same amount whether you have two meals per day or three meals per day. The end result is that you eat less without thinking about it
What you eat is more important than when you eat.
Intermittent fasting tends to help you burn fat and retain muscle. It also makes your life easier because you have one less meal to cook and clean up after.
However, it’s important to realize that what you eat will always be more important than when you eat. Intermittent fasting works best when combined with a healthy diet. Intermittent fasting is simply another weapon to use in the battle against fat, just like smaller plates and the “outer ring” strategy are weapons at your disposal.
