So as we go into the details, I'll give you six tips. I'll give you six tips and for each tip I'll give you a trick
0:38
The tip number one, say yes to more vegetables and fruits. Vegetables and fruits are important for general health
0:46
They are also low in calories, they are low in fat and they are high in fiber. Vegetables and fruits also contain vitamins, minerals and antioxidants
0:54
Therefore, they protect us from diseases and infections. Most of the time you don't actually know how much calories you take in a day
1:02
So consuming more vegetables and fruits will help you reduce the calories you take in a day
1:07
because they are low in calories and fat. It's also important to note that do not avoid two sugary fruits like bananas
1:14
or two fatty ones like avocado because just like any other fruits, they are equally important
1:20
What you should do is create a schedule so that you don't end up taking too much of them
1:25
So the trick to this tip is include a variety of vegetables and fruits of different
1:32
colors so that you maximize on the nutrients you get Also make sure vegetables occupy half of your plate So the tip number two eat at normal meal times
1:48
As I'd mentioned before in episode 4 on the meats and facts of weight loss
1:53
skipping a meal will never be a good idea. This would always have negative effects on your
1:58
body. Apart from feeling fatigued, restless and dizzy because of skipping a meal
2:03
Your next meal is more likely to be more than you end up eating more than usual
2:08
Moreover, when you skip a meal, your blood sugar levels go down
2:12
So you end up snacking on two sugary snacks or two fatty snacks, which is totally unhealthy
2:18
As much as skipping a meal will help you consume less calories
2:23
your mission to weight loss will be compromised by occasional snacking and over eating on your next meal
2:29
So the trick to this tip is enjoy eating at night. normal meal times. Plan your meals well so that your body can take up the nutrients effectively
2:39
Also, carry along a healthy snack but not in any situation should you skip meals
2:46
The tip number three, be physically active because it's only through physical activity that
2:52
you're able to burn the calories that you have taken. And as I had said before, exercise and
2:57
diet go hand in hand. Aside from exercise helping you towards your weight loss journey
3:03
It also reduces your risks to other diseases like diabetes, heart diseases and obesity
3:09
So eat a balanced diet and exercise often because if you reduce your intake of food and go into exercising you not only lose fat but muscles as well and that is not right because exercising and physical activity should focus on loss of fat not muscles
3:27
An important point to note is include exercise in your diet plan
3:32
Also, look at the bigger picture, because, as I said, aside from it helping you in weight loss
3:37
it's also important for our general health and mental health. So the trick to this tip is do regular aerobic exercise
3:46
because this will help you burn more calories and of course weight loss in the long run
3:51
So the tip number four is hydrate. Taking a glass of water just before meals helps you reduce portion size
3:58
Therefore, you can easily control how much you eat. Also, replacing water with other sweetened drinks and beverages can help you reduce your risk of weight gain
4:09
Moreover, water is 100% calorie-free, so there is no problem at all, even if you take you take it
4:15
even if you take eight cups of water or more in a day
4:19
So the trick to this tip is ensure you drink enough water every day alongside healthy meals
4:26
The tip number five is understand portion size. Portion size is the amount of specific food that you eat
4:34
And portion size is calculated depending on how much of calories you intend to consume in a day
4:40
The main aim of weight loss is to consume less calories without denying
4:45
your body important nutrients. So to know your portion size, you need to calculate the amount of
4:51
calories that you need to consume in a day in order to lose weight In this section you need to work closely with the nutritionist to select foods that can help you consume less calories but at the same time provide the required nutrients for your body
5:09
So the trip to this tip is use a smaller plate and make it a habit to control your portion size
5:17
The tip number six is reduce or cut off alcohol completely. Most people enjoy alcohol, mostly for leisure in it
5:26
vans or just for fun but for anyone looking to lose weight you'll need to reduce or completely cut off
5:33
alcohol because alcohol is an empty calorie it provides very little nutrients for your body
5:41
besides when you take alcohol your body starts breaking it down for energy and then the rest of the
5:47
glucose gets stored as fat so you are leading your body into developing an alcoholic fatty
5:53
liver and also excess belly fat. Also, consuming more alcohol may lead to poor decision making, may also limit digestion, hence difficulty in weight management
6:06
So the trick to this tip is cutting off alcohol or reducing the amount of alcohol you take can really be necessary and can lead to other body improvements
