Some of The best ways to lose weight and keep it off, according to science
In a country that eats dessert for breakfast, sustained weight loss can feel like an uphill battle. Aside from avoiding obvious minefields like stacks of syrup-drenched pancakes and huge muffins, there are several practical guidelines to follow if you’re looking to slim down. These tips can be helpful whether you’re struggling to lose weight or simply aiming to reboot your eating plan with some healthier basics. Still, if you’re aiming to make big changes to your diet and to your health, it’s always helpful to get help from a trained medical professional like a physician, registered dietitian, or family doctor. They’ll be able to go over any questions you have about the suggestions you find here. Author Michael Pollan may have condensed all the best nutrition wisdom into one line when he wrote: “Eat food, not too much, mostly plants.”

Wonderful tips for a healthy lifestyle.
Cannot disagree with any of this tips but I do believe that even though eating well is a goal for everyone it is just not enough for those that want to keep their weight off.
There have been two main ingredients that I believe are prime for maintaining weight loss.
- The first one, and was not mentioned in this article, is journaling or simply writing down everything that you eat throughout the entire day.
- The next absolute best tip that is mentioned in this article is to lose weight slowly from one to two lbs per week but absolutely no more.
Research tells us that those that tend to keep an eating log tend to maintain their weight off at a higher rate.
When you journal all the things you eat, it opens up your eyes to what is going into your digestive system. There is no denying it anymore. Usually, you just think you are eating a smaller amount than what you are, and it can be a shocker to find out that you are taking in way more than anticipated.
Once you start to see the real amount of stuff you are taking in you will start to make tiny changes that are easy to do but can have a huge impact. So even though you’re not “dieting,” you are eliminating some things that are making you gain weight. Surprisingly this happens with minimal coaching if any.
Research also concludes that if you lose weight slowly chances of keeping the weight off improve greatly.
Research has found that if you lose weight slowly, you can make physiological adjustments that are so small the body does not detect your weight loss.
In its neurological/physiological mind, the digestive system does not sense that you are changing anything. The body not sensing any changes is fabulous since if the body detects some starvation, it will revel and force you to get hungrier, and of course, you will start to eat as much as before or maybe even more.
Everything else in the article is great information but do remember that you still need to make minute changes, and this way to do it is by journaling and losing weight slowly.
