In today's time, many people are struggling with the problem of being overweight. Due to this, they have to face many types of problems. In such a situation, the best way to live a healthy life is to try to lose your extra weight. When you pay attention to your diet and exercise for this, it has a positive effect on your overall health.
At the same time, many people follow the weight loss program very seriously, but still, they do not see any change in their weight or body. They don't understand what is going wrong with them. Some of your daily habits may also be responsible for this. So, today in this article, RituPuri, Dietitian of ESIC Hospital, Central Government Hospital, is telling you about some such daily habits, which can become a barrier in your weight loss journey.
Ignore sleep
Often people have this habit they take full care of their food, but they do not pay any attention towards sleep. Sometimes because of work or sometimes just because of screens, they sleep late. It becomes a daily habit of such people to sleep late. However, if your habit is also like this then you will have a problem in losing weight. This is because lack of sleep disrupts the hormonal balance of your body. Increases hormones that increase appetite and decreases hormones that signal satiety. This can lead to the problem of overeating and weight gain.
Eating the same diet every day
You must have often noticed that when people are on a weight loss journey, they eat the same food almost every day. This becomes their habit. Due to this, they get good results in the beginning, but after some time their journey stops. This is because when you continuously eat the same type of food, one type of nutrient increases too much in your body, while some nutrients decrease. Therefore, keep changing your food ingredients with time.
Ignore water
Dieting does not mean that you focus only on your food. Some people consume more protein during weight loss but ignore their water intake. In such a situation, their weight starts increasing instead of decreasing. You may not know it, but water helps in the absorption of proteins. At the same time, it also protects you from unnecessary hunger or overeating.
Unhealthy snacking habits
Generally, we pay attention to our main meals but make a mess while snacking. This is such a habit of theirs that no one pays attention to it. However, due to this daily habit, their weight never reduces. It would be better if you choose fruits, vegetables nuts etc. in your snack time instead of taking high-calorie and processed foods.
