What has worked for me:
1. Find out why you are overweight. For me it was comfort eating junk food and large meals.
2. Start working on what’s causing the first step. I very gradually changed my approach to eating, shifting from unhealthy foods to healthier ones. Now I have an pretty easy time to either not eat or just pick something healthy.
3. I cut out breakfast and just drink coffee or tea, then light lunch followed by healthy snacks and a large dinner. I use whatever amount of fat I need to cook dinner and make sure my food is tasty. I don’t avoid carbs.
4. It all mostly just boils down to cutting out sugary snacks, huge lunches, breakfast and eating “normal food”.
5. Oh, I also try to get 20 min of walking or cycling or something a day in. Then some push-ups , maybe a chin-up. Excercise is important but only like 20% of the whole thing.
What hasn’t worked for me:
Diets. Calorie counting, KETO, whatever. Weight always comes back after a while because it doesn’t address on why I eat.
