How I dropped 50lbs

Weightloss Habits

🧘 Habit 1: Stop drinking alcohol

🧘 How It Helps Me: People don’t realize that alcohol stays in your body for up to 3days and is loaded with sugar= belly fat

🧘 Habit 2: Change my eating habits

🧘 How It Helps Me: We don’t realize how much food we are actually consuming a lot of times and how eating certain foods create more desire for more food hence a cycle of overeating.

🧘 Habit 3: Figuring out my “why”

🧘 How It Helps Me: this will help keep you motivated when you wanna give up or cheat yourself.

🧘 Habit 4: Working on my relationship with self

🧘 How It Helps Me: not being able to lose weight has a lot to do with our relationship with ourselves because when we lack self-love, we tend to have self sabotaging habits I.e. overeating

🧘 Habit 3: Stop looking for results

🧘 How It Helps Me: As long as you stay committed, you’re going to get the result the more you keep on, focusing on looking for the result the more you won’t be able to find it because you’re too close.

... Read moreLosing weight requires a multifaceted approach, and understanding certain key habits can drive success. In addition to stopping alcohol consumption—which is packed with sugars that contribute to belly fat—changing your eating habits is vital. Tracking what you're eating helps build awareness of your portion sizes and prevents the cycle of overeating. Understanding your motivation, or ‘your why,’ keeps you focused and dedicated during tough times. Self-love is equally important; improving your relationship with yourself can alleviate self-sabotaging actions like binge eating. Lastly, focusing less on immediate results allows you to embed these new habits into your lifestyle without pressure. Embrace this journey for lasting change!
