If you've tried to lose weight by counting calories before, you know that it can be a daunting task. To tally up each and every last, little bite can really take its toll on you! While this may be a popular method of losing weight, it may not be the best. Let us explain...
You see, the more empty calories (calories containing little-to no fiber or vitamins/minerals), you eat the hungrier you'll be. The more sugar you eat the more lethargic you'll feel, leading to an increase in even more sugar so that you can boost your energy to get through the day! Not only that, but you'll most likely end up wasting some muscle if your diet isn't adequate in protein (also consider that nutrients found in fruits and vegetables help you digest/utilize protein).
So what should you be eating? Simply put, you should strive to eat protein, fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy oils and 100% whole grains or legumes. Try to keep your caloric intake under control but also keep in mind that you really should change the way you eat if you want to look the way you feel.
