Three Easy Ways to Lose Weight, According to a Dietitian

Registered Dietitian Shares Simple Weight-Loss Strategies In a recent video, Ilana, a registered dietitian who successfully lost 100 pounds, shared three easy and effective strategies for weight management. These tips, she says, are 'totally free' and require minimal effort. First, she advocates for mindful food choices. "You don't have to cut anything out," Ilana explains, "but if you really want those fries, swap out the bun on your burger." Secondly, Ilana stresses the importance of hydration. "Drink more water," she advises. "If you fill up on two cups of water before meals, you'll be too full to overeat." This strategy, she notes, is supported by research. Finally, Ilana emphasizes the role of sleep in managing cravings. "Getting less than seven and a half hours of sleep can raise your hunger hormones," she explains, "so even if you're eating more, you're not going to feel satisfied." She suggests prioritizing sleep to help control cravings and promote weight loss. Ilana's practical advice offers a refreshing approach to weight management, focusing on sustainable lifestyle changes rather than restrictive diets.
