“Eight Ways to Eat And Lose Weight!”
I would like to introduce, Cleo, my Portuguese Water dog! She is the best pet, ever, for our family! She is turning six years old this month and she plays as if she were still a puppy! One thing that makes her remarkable is that she, like most animals, can tell the time!
Every night at exactly 5:30, she asks for her dinner! I don’t know how she knows but I could set my watch my her! Do your animals do that, too? We would benefit if we did this, too, because eating on a regular schedule helps to keep weight down. Animals know to do this. We should too!
Below are my personal tips that I have used for all of my career to help keep my weight down and stay at a steady constant. No binges, no starving aches, just an ‘even-Steven’ weight and I think it is because of these tips which I am sharing with you below. Keep reading to discover how to keep your weight ‘even-Steven’ too!
An old east Indian sage once said: “Chew your liquids and drink your solids.” In other words, chew, chew, chew or, masticate very well! Chewing your food really well helps the digestive enzymes to mix with your food in your mouth and begin to break it down before it gets to your stomach. This is an important first step to remember and to take advantage of to help slim down your weight.
If you want to loose weight eat half the amount of what you usually would eat. This way you don’t have to fuss with diets or calorie counting. Simply cut down on the size of your serving. How easy is that!
Place your fork down on your plate while you are chewing. Once you have swallowed your food, only then pick up your fork for another bite. Slowing down at your meal will give your stomach time to let you know when you are full without being stuffed and you probably will chew longer, too!
Drink water between meals. This hydrates your body, as you know, but it also cleanses your stomach and gets it ready for your next meal. By drinking between meals you can feel when you are hungry more easily, thus not eating before you are really ready and needing to eat.
No snacking! Just drink between meals. I know this might not be the best for every body type, but it sure worked for me.
Mark Twain said that the best seasoning for any meal is a good appetite. That is what you are after: A good, strong appetite. You don’t get that with snacking.
Brush your teeth right after a meal. With clean teeth you are less likely to eat after the meal is over. Just like when you have your teeth cleaned at the dentist’s office—you don’t want to eat again because your teeth feel so clean!
Try not to eat late at night or just before you go to bed. Going to sleep with food in your stomach doesn’t allow your food to be digested properly plus your internal organs are working to digest instead of resting, so you can wake up drowsy and not refreshed.
Lastly, Cleo says to try to eat at the same time everyday!
A wonderful event took place at the Marriott in Denver where women came together to help women. It was broadcast on the radio show ‘LIVE with Lisa’. In the photograph from left to right is Dr. Kristen Lee, who spoke about restoring health naturally,
