One of the most effective ways to lose weight is to reduce the amount of daily calories consumed. However, due to the constant feeling of hunger, it is difficult to lose weight in this way. Fortunately, there are a few tricks you can use to eat less and not go hungry.
Instructions
Step 1
Eat about 200 calories 30 minutes before lunch. Kill your appetite. Moreover, a snack should contain at least 15 grams of protein. You can eat egg salad or cottage cheese with fruit.
Step 2
Try not to overeat. Get up from the table with a feeling of slight hunger. Leave about a quarter of your usual serving uneaten. Fill the seeming void in the stomach with liquid, but avoid sugary drinks.
Step 3
Chew food thoroughly. For each piece of food, spend 30-40 chewing movements. So, you will not only reduce the number of calories consumed, but also improve the processing of food in the gastrointestinal tract.
Step 4
Imagine yourself as a food critic. Eat trying to catch all the flavors. Focus on food, and don't be distracted by watching TV or reading the news feed on social media.
Step 5
Don't go to the grocery store on an empty stomach. A hungry person is more likely to fill the basket with high-calorie foods and sweets. Make a shopping list and follow it strictly.
Step 6
Eat from smaller dishes. This simple trick will allow you to discreetly reduce your serving size. There is also an opinion that cold-colored plates reduce appetite, and warm-colored dishes increase it.
