Core Aesthetic Weight Loss Tips
Ready to start your weight loss journey, but don’t know where to start? You’re not alone – many people find the beginning stages of weight loss to be the most challenging. Follow along as we go over some tips and tricks to get you started and achieve your weight loss goals.
Set Realistic Goals
Start Small: begin with small, achievable goals. For example, aim to take a walk around the neighborhood once a day.
Be Specific: Clear goals help you track progress and stay motivated. Don’t give yourself vague goals like “I want to lose weight”, but instead set a goal of “I want to lose 10 pounds in one month”.
Maintain a Balanced Diet
Prioritize whole and nutrient dense foods: Focus on foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. These foods help keep you full longer, reducing the cravings to snack on unhealthy foods.
Portion Control: Be mindful of portion sizes. Use smaller plates , measure servings, and eat slowly to avoid overeating.
Limit sugars and refined carbs: Opt for more complex carbs like oats, quinoa, and brown rice which provide more energy and keep you full longer than sugary, processed foods.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water: Water is essential for overall health and can aid in weight loss. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water per day
Limit Sugary Drinks: Sugary beverages like sodas and fruit juice are high in calories and tend to not make us feel full. Instead, opt for water or herbal teas.
Incorporate Regular Exercise
Find an Activity you Enjoy: Exercise doesn’t have to be something you dread. Find an activity that you enjoy doing whether it’s swimming, hiking, or playing a sport. This makes it easier for you to maintain a regular exercise routine.
Stay Active Throughout the Day: Look for ways to stay active outside your regular workout routine. Take the stairs instead of the elevator or take a walk on your lunch break.
Get Enough Sleep
Prioritize Sleep: Lack of sleep can disrupt hormones that regulate hunger and appetite leading to weight gain. Aim for at least 7 to 9 hours of quality sleep each night
Manage Stress
Practice Relaxation Techniques: Chronic stress can lead to emotional eating and weight gain. Incorporate relaxation techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing into your daily routine.
Stay Connected: Maintain a strong support group of friends and family. Social support can help reduce stress and keep you motivated throughout your weight loss journey.
