What if I were to tell you that there are two easy things you can do today to help you start losing weight immediately, that would cost no money and wouldn’t require you to learn to do anything you cannot already do? Would you believe me? I hope so, because I have some wonderful news for you.
The first suggestion is to eat more slowly. Eating more slowly gives your body more time to alert your brain that your belly is full. WebMD’s recent article about this calls it “mindful eating”:
it takes roughly 20 minutes for the stomach and brain to register fullness. By the time your brain can process what’s going on in your stomach, you’re onto your second or third helping. Slow down, folks!
Your belly signals that it’s full, and it takes the hormones about 15-20 minutes to relay that message to the brain, no matter how much you’ve eaten. So in that 15-20 minutes, everything you eat is unnecessary. If you eat slower, you’ll eat less in that gap before your brain gets the call, and therefore you’ll consume fewer calories and less fat. This simple tactic can immediately improve your weight loss efforts!
We advise this with another simple, free diet tip: Drink more water. Science Daily points out that water can help you feel full, does not contain the sugars and fat builders that sodas include, and avoids dehydrating caffeine. Basically water is the fluid of life, and it’s healthier for you to drink it without any sugar and carbs that your energy drinks and sodas contain. It helps all your cellular processes and helps you feel healthier, because it helps you be healthier. Caffeine can pick you up, but it also dehydrates so it is counterproductive to drink caffeinated drinks all day. You may improve your taste for water by getting a Brita filter or by buying bottled water in bulk, because in many cities it does taste better and have fewer impurities than municipal tap water. Whatever you need to do, drink more water!
To get a flat stomach fast, we recommend you eat more slowly and drink more water. And keep reading our blog to learn more about how to get a flat stomach fast.
