I heard an expert say before that the reason why you are hungry is because the nutrition in your body is unbalanced. As long as you eat enough staple food, vegetables, and protein at each meal, your body will not feel hungry, let alone feel hungry.

greedy.

When I was losing weight, I always used this sentence as my dietary guideline, and it really worked.

When I was losing weight before, I would sometimes skip meals at night, or not eat until I was hungry, or I would restrain myself from eating in order to lose weight.

But doing this is actually a diet, which is very harmful.

For example, if you don't eat at night, you'll be too hungry to sleep in the middle of the night, you'll get up easily and overeat, and you won't be able to stop eating. This will only do harm to weight loss, but not any benefit.

And if you choose to eat a moderate amount at dinner time in the evening, eat something that is easy to digest even if you are not hungry. At least eat enough nutrients for a day, so that the body will not send out hunger signals, and there will be no need to control your mouth.

That's it.

Therefore, as long as you understand this principle, losing weight will be much easier.

You must have three regular meals and eat enough nutrients that your body needs, rather than judging whether you should eat based on your own subjective wishes.

Also, when losing weight, don’t set too many restrictions for yourself, telling yourself that you can’t eat this or that. Doing so will also cause psychological resistance.

Therefore, there should not be any taboo foods when losing weight. It is just a matter of quantity. As long as you pay attention to controlling the quantity, you can eat anything.

Losing weight means eating 70% and exercising 30%.

You can lose weight by controlling your diet but not exercising, but you will definitely not lose weight if you exercise without controlling your diet.

When it comes to losing weight, keeping your mouth shut is much more efficient than opening your legs.

However, for men and women, eating is instinctive. They will not eat when they are hungry, and they will not eat when they see something delicious. It is a battle between will and instinct. Unless they are extremely self-disciplined and enjoy defeating themselves, no one is willing to be an enemy of themselves.

How to make peace with your oral desires and lose weight?

01 Don’t increase the conflict with desires. Many people think that losing weight means eating less or not eating. This is to kill people’s instinctive desire for food.

As a living thing, instinct cannot be eliminated. Over time, the will will inevitably fail.

Many people attribute their failure to lose weight to the fact that they are not tough enough on themselves and their willpower is not strong enough. In fact, they were wrong from the beginning. Desire should not be regarded as a mortal enemy, but should find a way to live in peace with desire.

In other words, it’s not about eliminating desire but making peace with it.

02 Eat low-calorie and low-sugar foods. If you do not increase the conflict with desire, any eating during the weight loss period will not turn into a decisive battle between will and desire.

The first way to make peace with your own desires is to eat. Only by eating can your desires not go crazy. Extreme weight loss can easily lead to bulimia, because if your appetite cannot be satisfied normally, you will fight back crazily.

You must eat something, but you can eat less. Eating is very important.

It takes an hour of running to consume the calories of a piece of cake, but it will be gone after a few bites.

It’s high in calories and doesn’t fight hunger.

The calories of a piece of cake are about the same as three apples, two more bananas, a large pot of vegetables, and more than 100 grams of rice.

The latter is much more than a piece of cake, and also makes you more hungry.

For another example, the same 100 grams of rice and brown rice or oatmeal rice have similar calories, but the glycemic index of multigrain rice is much lower, making it less likely to be hungry.

If you replace fine rice noodles with coarse grains, you will be much hungry for the same weight of food.

Therefore, it is not necessary to skip three meals. Try to choose low-calorie and low-sugar foods while controlling the total amount, such as cereals, fruits and vegetables, etc., so that you will not be hungry at night.

03 Eat mainly light meals. If you have the conditions during the weight loss period, it is best to make your own weight loss meals.

The reason is that in order to increase the taste, many unknown ingredients are often added to the food outside, and the taste is relatively strong.

Heavy flavors can easily stimulate the appetite. When you are not hungry, you will be greedy and full of fantasies about food.

If you make it yourself, use less salt and less oil. You may not be used to it at first, but if you stick to it for a while, you will lose interest in fried, high-salt, heavy-flavored food.

This is an experience that I, including many people who have lost weight, have a deep understanding of.

As a Hunanese, I am accustomed to heavy flavors. In the past, as long as I had chili peppers, I would have a huge appetite. I could not stop the car when eating, and my eyes would light up when I saw all kinds of fried skewers.

Now when I go to the pedestrian street or the roadside, I won't be interested at all when I see these.

If you eat light for a period of time, your appetite will decrease, and you will not want to eat midnight snacks at night.
