Tweak Your Daily Routine for Successful Weight Loss!

At the start of a new year, many of us use this time to consider our goals. One of the most commonly discussed intentions is weight loss. Use these tips to maximize your progress in your daily routines, while creating lifelong healthy habits!

Less meat. More fruits and veggies.

Protein is a necessity for a well-balanced diet, “balance” being the key word. Control your intake of meat for your meals to ensure it’s a healthy amount. Be conscious of too high concentration of fats, or too many growth hormones and antibiotics which are often over-used in many meats and have negative effects in our bodies. Add more fruits and vegetables to your meals and snacks to ensure you’re nourishing your diet with the right vitamins and nutrients!

It’s hard to get too much sleep.

When it comes to weight loss, sleep is one of the most important factors in your achievements. And because you’re making changes to your diet, your appetite, metabolism, and energy levels are all affected. Go to bed earlier and strive for 8 hours of sleep each night. Your morning workout routine will feel that much better!

Kick sugar to the curb.

Sugar has a negative impact on our bodies. It offers only empty calories that pull minerals from the body during digestion. It’s only natural that we crave this empty ingredient, but moderate intake is so important! Substitute that handful of miniature chocolate candies and, instead, get your sweet fix by consuming more options that have natural sugars. For examples: berries, pineapple, juices and smoothies!

Create a fun exercise routine.

A committed workout plan, while necessary, can be exhausting if you aren’t enjoying it. Workouts require time, energy, and dedication. So, why not add fun to the mix? Amp up your exercises by trying unique core classes like aerial yoga, hula hooping, and spinning. Jog while listening to an inspiring playlist, or invite your friends on a weekend bike ride! The more you are having fun and enjoying your workouts, the more desire you’ll have to push yourself to stay on track. You’ve got this!
