Many people on the weight loss journey struggle to achieve goals that satisfy them, in what some describe as the most daunting health task of all.
There are wrong night habits that make weight loss slow and difficult:
sleep late
- Not only does lack of sleep affect your cognitive performance, but it also affects your metabolism.
- According to one study, people who don’t get enough sleep one night tend to eat an extra 385 calories the next day.
Attachment to technology and smart devices
- Smart device screens disrupt sleep due to exposure to what is known as blue light, which reduces melatonin production, increases cortisol and insulin production, and thus increases appetite.
Heavy dinner
- Research published by Tel Aviv University shows that eating a heavy breakfast and a light dinner is the best way to lose weight, control obesity, and combat metabolic syndrome.
- The best way to eat a lot without taking in a lot of calories is to focus on eating leafy green vegetables.
Eat fast food before going to bed
- When you are going through a long tiring day, it is easy to eat junk food before going to bed because you feel like you deserve the reward, but the extra salt in those meals will cause you to retain water in your body, which will lead to unwanted weight gain.
