Are you Struggling To Lose Weight ?

If you are struggling with losing weight: here are 4 things to consider.

1. You are overeating healthy foods.
   Healthy is a tricky word and most people think that eating a granola bar is"healthy", in some cases it would be better if you ate a candy bar for breakfast instead of a granola bar. The amount of sugar in some granola bars causes your blood sugar to spike and that is not good for your pancreas or your insulin receptors. Remember you only have a limited amount and when you wear your pancreas out you can't get another one.

   Like everything else you should eat everything in moderation, you should have a balance in what you eat. Instead of a granola bar, you can make your own muesli and add it to yogurt or eat it as cereal. Just remember that calories are calories whether good or bad and if you don't burn the calories you take in you will wear them later.

2. You drink a majority of your calories.
   Many people are not aware of how many calories are in their favourite drinks. A couple of lattes from Starbucks can add up quickly, especially if you eat one of their decadent muffins, you can easily consume half of your daily calories at breakfast.

   Be mindful of the extra liquid calories that you take in, opt for the lower calorie options like green tea and skip the extra cream and toppings.

3. You have no accountability.
   Whether it's your friend, family or significant other, what they do and what they eat will affect you and in moments of weakness if they are not on board with you , it will be easier to overeat or slip back into your old habits. Find someone that will hold you accountable and help you stick with your healthy weight loss plan.
4. You can't live without condiments and toppings.
   Do you know what makes a salad high calorie? The dressing and the toppings added. Many people eat mindlessly and when pounds add on they are surprised at where they came from. After all you were just eating a salad. In order to lower the extra calories that you get from the croutons, bacon bits and the store bought salad dressings make your own. All you need is olive oil, vinegar, your favourite spices and a container to mix them in. Don't fall prey to the condiment/toppings trap.
