Extreme calorie restriction and excessive exercise are things our nutrition and fitness experts never recommend for health reasons, but they also point out that if you try these methods, you are more likely to gain all this weight back faster than you lost it. Losing weight through general diet and lifestyle improvements is the healthiest way.

If you're looking for sustainable weight loss, there are some healthy tips that apply to almost everyone and they're concepts we can put into practice right away.

Increase your vegetable intake
Instead of restricting different foods and food groups, focus on adding nutritious foods that you can add to your diet to promote overall health and weight management.

Water and fiber contained in products add volume to the food and are naturally low in fat and calories, but nutritious and filling. You can create low-calorie versions of delicious foods by substituting fruits and vegetables for higher-calorie ingredients.

Plan a better breakfast

A well-balanced breakfast full of fiber, protein and healthy fats combined in one delicious serving will revolutionize your day, especially if you are skipping it now and still struggle to prioritize a healthy lifestyle.

Skipping breakfast can affect your hunger hormones later, making you hungrier in the afternoon, making it harder to overeat or crave sugary and refined carbohydrate foods. The best and heartiest breakfasts are ones that fill you up, keep you full and curb cravings.

Aim for 350-500 calories at breakfast and make sure you get a lean protein source as well as healthy fat (eggs, unsweetened Greek yogurt, nuts or nut butter) and fiber (vegetables, fruit or 100% whole grains).

Starting your day with a blood sugar stabilizing nutritional blend will help you lose weight.

Move

Any form of exercise can be a very useful weight management tool. Walking is a great and inexpensive option that requires no additional gym equipment other than a good kick. So, consider walking for weight loss and overall health.

Eat mindfully

Slowing down to focus on things like taste, textures, temperature and smells of what you are eating can help with portion control. But mindful eating also means really focusing on what you are eating and when.

More importantly, try to avoid eating foods that you do not choose for yourself. Mindful eating can help shift focus of control from external authorities and cues to your body's own inner wisdom. Realizing where extra calories are actually coming from is another step to making better choices in the short and long term.
Conclusion

Going long periods of time without food does more harm on our healthy eating efforts by both slowing down your metabolism, and priming you for a binge later. Make it your mission to eat three meals and two snacks every day, and do not wait longer than three to four hours without eating.
