How to Lose Weight without Feeling Hungry



"I need to lose weight but I'm sick of feeling hungry all the time" is a common statement made by individuals after fly-by-night diets. If your diet leaves your stomach rumbles every hour on the hour, it's time to make a change. I used to think that losing weight meant starvation. It took me a while to accept that I could eat a lot and still lose weight. The time I spent on behalf of starving to lose weight was miserable. When I managed to lose a few pounds, I would win it all back in a matter of weeks. Sometimes I'd even gain a few pounds. Talk about depressing! What I learned through years of research (and trial and error) is that when you follow a healthy diet, you can chow until you're full, and still see amazing results in loss of weight.

What are healthy foods?

Healthy foods are not created in a processing plant to death. If food is dry, canned, frozen or filled with ingredients you can not pronounce, stay away from him. Examples of healthy foods include fresh fish, naturally raised meats, legumes, seeds, poultry, organic, whole eggs, raw nuts, and fruits and vegetables. 

How to make healthy meals more filling?
There is nothing sadder than dealing with the feeling of hunger every day. If your meals do not satisfy you, that's exactly what will happen. Here are some tips to make your meal more filling:

Add a source of quality protein and a healthy fat source (yes, fat) for each of your meals. Doing this is more satiating meals and curbs hunger. Healthy protein sources include natural meats, organic whole eggs, poultry and fish bio. Sources of healthy fats include avocados, fish, beans, raw nuts, coconut oil and olive oil. Load your plate with vegetables. It helps to divide your plate into three sections and fill the largest section with vegetables. Let the other two sections of meat and other foods. Vegetables are full of fiber, so they develop in the stomach, digest slowly and keep you full longer. Drink a glass of water before each meal and throughout the day. This will help you feel full faster and reduce hunger. Examples of healthy meals and snacks and filling breakfast: two scrambled eggs, 1 / 3 cup of oatmeal with cinnamon and a little pear. Snack: 1 medium apple, 1 cup of sliced ​​cucumber and 1 oz of raw nuts. Lunch: 4 oz ground turkey, 1 / 2 cup cooked brown rice, 8 oz carrot sticks and a small green salad with vinegar and olive oil dressing. Snack: 2 tablespoons almond butter, 2 slices of rye bread and 8 ounces of crunchy celery sticks. Dinner: 5 oz grilled halibut steaks, 1 / 2 cup green beans sauteed with garlic, small baked sweet potato and a small green salad with vinegar and apple cider vinaigrette of olive oil.

Diet plans that leave you hungry all the time (or even some of the time) are evil. Why not scrap the diet altogether and eat healthy instead? If you do it this way, you can eat delicious, filling foods and still lose weight.
