If weight loss feels harder than it should, here are 5 things I’d fix first:
1. Add more vegetables to your day.
Try to include vegetables in at least 2 meals a day so your meals have more volume, more fiber, and keep you full for longer.
2. Make sure you have protein at every meal.
Protein helps with fullness, supports muscle, and can make it easier to control hunger and cravings.
3. Change the order you eat your food.
Start with your vegetables, then your protein, and eat your carbs last, especially when your plate is separated.
4. Stop responding to every craving with food.
If you just ate 1 to 2 hours ago, drink some water first and pause before reaching for a snack. Not every craving is true hunger.
5. Fix your sleep, because tiredness can drive cravings.
Poor sleep and stress can make you more likely to overeat, snack late, and feel out of control around food.
