7.Don’t drink calories and sugar.
Drinks high in sugar are the most fattening items in the food supply. They are worse than solid sugar. Examples of this sugary beverages are sodas like Coke and Pepsi, and also applies to “healthier” beverages like Vitamin water; sugar is sugar.
8.Eat whole foods.
Food quality is more important than food quality. Eat healthy foods as much as possible. Whole foods, single-ingredient foods are healthier than their processed counterparts.
A word to the wise: Set realistic expectations and goals about your weight loss aspirations. Weight loss is not as simple as you think it is. It takes discipline, and most of all, it takes time.
9.Avoid added sugar.
Studies show that sugar (and high fructose corn syrup) consumption is strongly associated with the risk of obesity, as well as diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease and others.
If you want to lose weight, you should be cutting back on added sugars.
10.Eat Less Refined Carbs
Studies show that refined carbs can spike blood sugar rapidly, leading to hunger, cravings and increased food intake a few hours later. Eating refined carbs is strongly linked to obesity.
