Unfortunately, reaching your weight loss goal isn\u2019t always the reality once you\u2019ve reached the end of your weight loss journey. It\u2019s a journey that\u2019s full rewarding up and frustrating downs; and at times, you\u2019d be tempted to go on a crash diet for the \u2018easy\u2019 results. However, science and personal anecdotes have denounced this method as not only will you regain back the weight you\u2019ve worked hard to lose, but it also changes the entire physiological composition of your body, including increasing metabolic and sex hormones.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you wish to lose weight in a safer and lasting manner, you can\u2019t run away from making gradual and permanent lifestyle changes that are beneficial to your wellbeing. Here are 5 vital factors to help you start losing weight successfully in a healthy and sustainable manner.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Eat clean<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s no secret that healthy meals make up the foundation of your weight loss efforts. Depending on the diet of your choice, you\u2019ll need to alter your current diet accordingly. For instance, you\u2019ll want to abandon all processed sugar, processed foods, grains and dairy if you\u2019re opting to incorporate the Paleo diet. If you\u2019re going for the ketogenic diet<\/a>, your diet will involve reducing your carbohydrate intake whilst increasing your fat intake.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, not every diet can give you your desired results. You\u2019ll need to figure out which diet works best for you and your body. At the end of the day, ensure that you don\u2019t neglect the essentials required for bodily functions. Besides, also take note of your portion and cut down if you exceed your maximum calorie intake for the day.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Exercise regularly<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

A weightloss journey is not complete without any physical activity to burn the calories stored in your body. This coupled with the decrease in the number of calories you eat, your body will end up in a calorie deficit, resulting in weight loss.<\/span><\/p>\n

If engaging in a full workout sounds intimidating, you can begin by doing light exercise such as taking on long walks or even doing your daily household chores! Refrain from being inactive at all times, and increase your exercise levels gradually.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Drink up<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

There have been studies that support the theory that drinking water is the fundamental keys to losing weight. Apart from being a natural appetite suppressant, drinking water also promotes the thermogenic state, which increases the rate of your metabolism. This means your body\u2019s resting energy expenditure also increases, thus you\u2019ll burn more calories even whilst you\u2019re resting. More importantly, the burning of fat cannot be done without water. The metabolising of fat requires hydrolysis, whereby water molecules will interact with fats to create glycerol and fatty acids.<\/span><\/p>\n

On the flip side, numerous drinks people sip on regularly like fruit juice, soda and energy can result in weight gain and therefore, sticking to water will be beneficial.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Get sufficient sleep<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Apart from clocking a full 8 hours of interrupted sleep, you\u2019ll want to ensure that your circadian rhythm is not disturbed either. The circadian rhythm refers to the 24-hour body clock, which helps control your daily schedule for sleep and wakefulness. Changes to the circadian clock are associated with temporal alterations in eating patterns and increased weight gain.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Stress less<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

High levels of stress have a positive correlation to gaining weight for a few reasons. High levels of cortisol, the stress hormone, will cause a surge in insulin levels. As a result, your blood sugar drops, and you\u2019ll naturally crave sugary, fatty foods. Moreover, to abate the stress, you may also turn into indulging in foods, ultimately increasing your portions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Consider other methods to reduce your stress by exercising or confiding in your loved ones in stressful situations.<\/span><\/p>\n
