I often see weight loss happening when my clients follow these tips 80%-90% of the time. But remember: underlying health issues vary from person to person. For example, people with untreated thyroid function might not benefit from this approach!
Tip 1: Eat when you are hungry.
Believe it or not, this needs some explanation! Hunger is a feeling that happens below the neck. So for example, if you think it’s time to eat because it is lunch time, this is a thought. But does it reflect how you feel?Tip 2: Eat half of your meal and wait 20 minutes.
Put your meal out of sight. Are you hungry after 20 minutes? You can eat the second half of your meal. If you aren’t hungry, save your leftovers for later.Tip 3: If you’re not hungry after 3-4 hours, your previous meal was too big.
Usually, when blood sugars drop, your body will create a feeling of hunger. This rule can also help you to estimate the size of your plate. Especially for meals we consume regularly like breakfast or lunch.Tip 4: Walk 10-20 minutes after big meals.
Walking is magic. After a meal walking can reduce a rise in blood sugars significantly. Walking can be a moment for yourself or to connect with others. Walking can be a moment to get your dose of vitamin D. There is even research that suspects that infrared radiation from the sun stimulates melatonin production inside your mitochondria (this won’t make you sleepy, but it will help protect mitochondria from the damage of free radicals). How cool is that!Tip 5: Eat foods that you love and foods that love you back!
Do you feel bloated after a meal? Gassy? Do you feel constipated? Tired? Without focus? Or does the food you eat makes you want to overeat? These foods (for now) aren’t loving you back! Try to avoid these foods!The blood sugar regulation course gives you a lot of extra pearls. (Bonus tip: Take your time to dive into this, but my advice is to reserve some time in your schedule! This is ‘you’ time).
