Tips for Maintaining A Healthy Weight

Maintaining a healthy weight and controlling emotional eating tips by Senior Dietitian, Amanda Foti, from Selvera Wellness

  1. Define yourself as a healthy and fit individual. Finding value in making healthy choices will help you stick with them long term.
  2. Make healthy eating and exercising a lifestyle you live, not a temporary plan you are follow to meet a goal. A healthy lifestyle shouldn’t have an end point, it should just be the way you live.
  3. Understand what emotions are triggers. Before starting to change anything, be mindful of how you’re feeling when you have a desire to eat and identify the emotion behind it.
  4. Focus on relieving the emotional triggers. Whether its stress, boredom, sadness, there are alternative actions not involving food that can work to relieve the emotion. Brainstorm a few alternative actions you can rely on in the moment.
  5. Keep a food journal. This allows you to reflect on what your food choices are and identify where the trouble areas are. Being accountable for your food choices will make you more mindful in the moment.
  6. Don’t deprive yourself. Taking away foods you love will only make the desire to have them stronger. Find a healthy balance of enjoying foods you love with nutritious choices and exercise.
  7. Have patience. Changing habits as complex as emotional eating takes time and many attempts of practice. Expect to not be perfect and be okay with it. Rather than setting a goal to go ‘cold turkey’ focus on decreasing the incidents of emotional eating over time.

Desserts Cure Obesity: “Sweet Feast Forever”

In 2005 Dr. Robert Schwarazberg advised Chuck Weiss to lose some weight, and so Weiss began counting calories and getting on the scale every morning. His initial weight loss was a huge success, but Weiss found that after his big first loss, the lifestyle of maintaining his weight was actually harder than the original weight loss.

Unwilling to give up sweets, but still dedicated to maintaining his weight, he came up with a new diet concept. Weiss allowed himself to chew sweets, but this time around he wouldn’t swallow, he would spit them right back out.

The new spit-out weight loss regimen worked so well for him that he chose to share it with the world. “You Must Tongue it to believe it,” says Weiss. After his new found weight loss success, he created DessertsCureObesity.com, which explains the medically approved program that has been successfully tested for more than eight years.

Keeping slim and eating properly is a common challenge for many.  Utilizing some of the natural approach diets, such as recipes in www.TheSlimmerBook.com could have a positive effect on other health issues you may be having.  Even a chance to decrease that stubborn extra weight, these recipes are easy to make with most ingredients available at almost any grocery store.

The Mediterranean recipes in this book use  Greek cuisine to reduce both fat and health issues, while filling plates.  SLIMMER designs a simple nutrition plan: a delicious, low-fat Mediterranean diet with revolutionary, fat-burning ingredients coupled with the self-awareness to combat the triggers that contribute to weight gain.

Greek author Harry Papas established his own successful Health and Diet Centre in Athens. He incorporated his successful nutrition program into a book to help as many people as possible. The New England Journal of Medicine agrees with Papas’ diet. In its Feb. 25th, 2013 study titled: Primary Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease with a Mediterranean Diet, the NEJM confirmed this is the best, life-long, satisfying way to eat to be healthy and fit.
