Living a healthier life than you already are doesn’t have to be difficult; the changes sometimes can be somewhat easy. Most times people make drastic changes when they decide to adopt a healthier lifestyle, which makes it hard for them to stick to their plan. Nevertheless, there are simple things that can be done daily to help with your overall weight loss, sometimes its just as easy as playing a different video game.
You should consider these seven healthy food swaps to help with your overall weight loss.
#1
Eat fruit rather than fruit juice; taking a glass of juice is not as healthy as eating a whole piece of fruit, a glass of juice only contains a small squash or skin from an orange, and zero of the fiber. Lest you decide to take a glass of juice next time, opt for a piece of fruit instead because it contains less calories and more nutrient.
#2
If you do not like soda water, try some other flavour like lemon, lime or even vanilla
#3
Eat more, don’t skip meals. It is important to eat meals because if you do not make out time to eat, you’ll feel tired and run-down much later. In addition it slows your metabolism, and can cause you to overeat later.
#4
You like bread? Of course we all do… who doesn’t?! Always opt for whole wheat, make sure the first ingredient listed on the bread you’re buying is whole wheat, it should say 100 percent whole wheat or wheat flour. Multi grain doesn’t mean it is whole grain you’re eating; it just means they’re throwing additional grain into it.
#5
Morning latte could be costing you a whooping 300 calories plus a tone of sugar, so swap your latte for green tea instead because it contains zero calories and still has caffeine and in addition, speed up after you drink a cup because it has a thermogenic effect on your metabolism.
#6
The number of calories bagels contains are an equivalent of eating five slices of toast, so instead, have a piece of whole wheat toast or two. Yes we know everyone enjoys a good bagel, but truth is, the latter is more nutritional and contains smaller amount calories.
#7
Finally, they always seem to be more calories packed in a restaurant meal than a meal made by yourself, so you can try as much as you want to eat healthy at a restaurant but it won’t serve its purpose. Order a salad in a restaurant and think it’ll have fewer calories? No! That salad definitely has more calories than any salad you’d make at home. In other words, eating home is guaranteed to be great for your budget too. You can save lot of money and calories by forgoing restaurant meals, so cook, rather than eat out.
