1. Cut back on refined carbs: Reducing refined carbohydrates may help curb your appetite, lower your insulin levels, and help you lose weight. But the long-term effects of a low carb diet are not yet known. A reduced calorie diet could be more sustainable.
2. Eat protein, fat, and vegetables: Try to assemble each meal with a protein source, healthy fat source, complex carb, and vegetables. Leafy green vegetables are a great way to bulk up a meal with low calories and lots of nutrients.
3. Move your body: Resistance training, such as weightlifting, is a great option for losing weight. If that’s not possible, cardio workouts are also effective. Choose what’s sustainable for you.
