As you slowly rid your diet of junk food and sweets, you'll notice a change: you actually start to like those healthy foods that you once refused. And as you start fueling your body with nutrients(营养物) and noticing how much better you feel, there's a good chance you'll lose weight, too. Here's how your new healthy eating habits are helping you drop pounds.
Drinking water
Finally you decided to change those Diet Cokes for water? It's a good decision: drinking more water helps keep your skin and other cells healthy and functioning properly, and drinking enough water keeps you from feeling tired. Your new water habit is great for your waistline as well: drinking water helps prevent overeating.
Eat more fruits and vegetables
Your new weekend's to-do list that includes a trip to the farmers' market to stock up on vegetables for the week isn't just helping you eat more disease-fighting nutrients; loading up on produce is a smart weight-loss strategy. Fruits and vegetables are low-cal high-fiber food to stay satisfied and feel full longer.
Cooking at home
Healthy eating means cooking at home more since you're able to see what exactly is going into your food and control the amount of salt, sugar, and fat in it. Not only does this ensure you're eating the nutrients you need, but you’ll also save major calories from giving up the large buttery portions found in many restaurants.
