Growing up, I was always the heavier kid in my class and struggled with body image issues. I constantly yo-yoed with my weight, trying every diet and exercise plan under the sun, but nothing seemed to stick.
From fad diets to intense workout regimens, I’ve tried it all and have often found myself right back where I started.
It wasn’t until I started making small, effortless changes to my lifestyle that I finally began to see real results.
As someone who has struggled with their weight for years, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to shed those unwanted pounds. It can take a lot of time and motivation — two things that many of us lack in our busy lives.
That’s why I want to share what I’ve learned over the years by outlining five tiny habits for sustainable weight loss I religiously follow.
#1. Hydrate with a Glass of Water Before Every Meal
You might be thinking, “What does drinking water have to do with weight loss?”
But hear me out.
A simple glass of water before each meal can work wonders.
Research has shown that drinking a glass of water increases feelings of fullness, leading to a reduction in overall caloric intake.
