Summary of How to EAT ANYTHING you want WITHOUT GAINING WEIGHT
Key Wellness Strategies
- Understanding Metabolism:
- Metabolism accounts for over 60% of calorie burning, while physical activity accounts for about 30%.
- Everyone has different metabolic rates, but there are ways to boost Metabolism.
- Hydration:
- Drink water instead of sugary drinks; cold water can increase Metabolism by nearly 30% for 30-40 minutes.
- Staying hydrated helps control appetite and reduces bloating.
- Portion Control:
- Implement the PCF rule: More Protein, Less Carbs, Least Fats.
- Adjust meals to include more protein and fewer carbs and fats (e.g., more beans and less rice at Chipotle).
- Eating Habits:
- Eat slower to allow your brain to register fullness; it takes about 20 minutes for the stomach to signal fullness.
- Put your fork down between bites and minimize distractions while eating.
- Meal Timing:
- Leave gaps between meals to allow digestion; avoid late-night snacking to help maintain a healthy weight.
- Aim for a 12-hour fasting window by not eating after 8-10 p.m.
- Sleep:
- Light Activity:
- Incorporate fun cardio options that feel enjoyable.
- Engage core muscles by subconsciously sucking in your belly to maintain activity even while at rest.
Additional Tips
- Maintain a calorie intake between 2500 to 3000 calories for weight maintenance without strict dieting.
- Consume smaller portions of calorie-dense foods (e.g., desserts, fast food) and prioritize healthy, homemade meals.
