Happy Friday! We know you’re ready to get out of the office and head into the weekend, but we’ve first got some tips to help you eat healthy even on your time off.
It’s time for our weekly summary of weight loss and diet articles from this week’s internet!
This week, we’re going to focus on diet and eating tips, since it can be so hard to know if a no carb diet or a vegan diet are actually healthy or if they will actually help you lose weight fast. It can be tough to know how to lose belly fat, but these eating tips will help you out.
We all know how important breakfast is for helping you lose weight fast and get your day started off right. These healthy recipes from Health.com won’t fit into a no carb diet, but they will definitely get your day started off right with lots of healthy fruits and grains and show you how to lose belly fat. However, we’ve also learned that no carb diets aren’t for everyone. There are actually some carbs that are really beneficial for your body. Try to include more of the natural sources of carbs in your diet- stuff like beans, yams, and brown rice. These carbs have high fiber content and will absorb slowest and not give you energy swings at work that make you less productive and more sleepy! Not sure where to start? Consult this list of healthy carbs to see which carbs you should be eating more of to lose belly fat. The list even has tasty recipes to help you get started!
Another important list to check out- 6 Eating Rules for Faster Weight Loss. This list is great because it doesn’t require you to stick to a difficult vegan diet or no carb diet. It gives you healthy foods across all groups, including one that may surprise you- fats! As this article says, these fats “include monounsaturated fatty acids and omega-3 fatty acids, found in oils, nuts, avocados, certain fish—and yes, even chocolate! Eat 3-4 servings daily. A study published in the journal Appetite shows how these fats—besides being good for your heart—can help you feel fuller longer after meals… Less hunger means less munching and an easier time keeping calories in check.” Feel free to check out our blog post from earlier this week to learn more about how eating fat can help you lose belly fat!
Our final wonderful find of the week is a list of some healthy snacks to keep you energized and productive throughout the day without throwing off your plan to lose weight fast. Snacking is something that we all love to do but few of us know how to do right in order to lose belly fat, even if you are sticking to a vegan diet or another healthy diet. It doesn’t have to be this way, says Susan Bowerman, RD, assistant director of the UCLA Center for Human Nutrition. “When done right, (snacking) keeps your energy levels up and gives you more opportunities to get in all your nutritional needs.” Take your first step here!
