Less calories in, more calories out, that’s what weight loss is all about. You have to create healthy habits and part of that is stamping out your old bad habits! There are a few habits that might actually be hurting your progress, and they’re common too.
Not Enough Veggies
Isn’t it funny that all of the foods we don’t like to eat are the ones we need to be eating? It’s a cruel world!
Veggies are an important food group when it comes to weight loss, they provide so many health benefits that we simply can’t afford to miss. They play a big role in keeping a healthy gut and they’ll keep you fuller for longer, which will help you from overeating.

Not Enough Water
Adequate hydration plays a crucial goal in weight loss! Thirst can be disguised as hunger especially if we’re dehydrated, which can lead to overeating. A good tip if you’re feeling hungry especially soon after eating is to drink a glass of water, your body could just be needing a little hydration!
Take a look at our blog on the crucial role of water in weight loss for a better understanding.
Not Eating Enough
But the less we eat the more weight we’ll lose, right? Wrong! Not eating enough is not only bad for your health, it’s bad for your weight loss journey. Skipping meals is never the answer. Not eating enough leaves you fatigued and can slow down your metabolism. Food is fuel and we need it to function, starving yourself often leads to overeating and reaching for sugary snacks. We recommend following a rough eating timeline each day to develop a healthy routine.
