16Counting every calorie you consume, spending an entire weekend cooking healthy meals for the following week, finding even more time to exercise, sure, these weight-loss strategies do work, but they can be awfully time-consuming. So follow these guides to lose weight.
17The first guide is to keep good food close. Laziness plays a bigger role in your food choices—both good and bad—than you might think, suggests another study published in Appetite. People prefer to eat the food near them but not their favorite food which is far from them. So put the good food near you, then you can eat healthy.
17The second one is to save the salad for last. Salad comes with your meal; just eat it at the end of your meal. By eating it last, it will give your brain a chance to catch up with your stomach so you realize that you aren’t as hungry as when you started your meal. Just make sure you skip the creamy dressings.
The next one is to forget about diet soda. Research found that people who drank diet soda tended to have larger waists. After following 474 people for about a decade, they found that those who drank diet soda had a 70% greater increase in waist circumferences compared with non-drinkers. What’s more: people who consumed two or more diet sodas a day saw a 500% greater increase.
17And the last one is to opt for raw. When you’re hungry, grabbing a piece of fruit is easy—no cooking is required. 18Fruits are naturally sweet, high in fiber, and full of hydration. If you fill up on fruits, you’ll be less likely to want to eat other foods. Raw vegetables can have the same effect.
A. Opt for raw.
B. Keep good food close.
C. Save the salad for last.
D. Talk a walk after meal.
