But the smart choice you made by having a salad can quickly be ruined by absolutely dousing the whole thing in your dressing.<\/p>\n<p>Ask for your dressing on the side (don&#8217;t worry, it&#8217;s a common request). When you want some, just dip your fork into the dressing before sticking it into your salad. You&#8217;ll use much less and save a huge amount of calories, while still getting the taste.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opt for Dark Chocolate:<\/strong> If you have an irresistible sweet tooth, don&#8217;t fight it \u2014 learn to make it work for you! Rather than having milk chocolate, have a small bit of dark chocolate when your cravings strike.<\/p>\n<p>Dark chocolate is packed with antioxidants, and researchers have found that is more filling than milk chocolate, meaning you&#8217;ll eat less. Prevent yourself from overindulging by breaking off a small piece to enjoy, and putting the rest away\u00a0<em>before<\/em> you start snacking.<\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<!-- MOM Inline 1 --><br \/>\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display: block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0113767339097136\" data-ad-slot=\"1332021683\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins><br \/>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p><strong>Do &#8220;Micro&#8221; Workouts:<\/strong> <em>&#8220;I don&#8217;t have time to workout.&#8221;<\/em> You&#8217;ve probably said this before, and maybe yes, you don&#8217;t have time to go to the gym or head out for a run all the time. Still, there are little bits of free time during the day in which you could have quick, micro-workouts.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone has 30 seconds to a few minutes of free time during the day, so use that time to up your metabolism so that you&#8217;ll continue to burn more calories even when you&#8217;re done. It doesn&#8217;t matter what you&#8217;re doing, as long as you&#8217;re being active.<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you&#8217;ve got something in the microwave for a minute or the commercials have just started, try seeing how many burpees you can do in that time. It&#8217;s easy to get started because you know it will be over very soon, and you can challenge yourself to do more each time.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t done burpees before, don&#8217;t worry you&#8217;re not alone. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=dZgVxmf6jkA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">This video<\/a> will show you how to do them even if you&#8217;re just a beginner:<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-video flex-video-youtube\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1060\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dZgVxmf6jkA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p class=\"vidabove\"><strong>Lay Out Clothes the Night Before:<\/strong> Do you keep telling yourself you&#8217;ll go workout tomorrow morning, but then morning hits and you&#8217;re tired and well&#8230; it just doesn&#8217;t happen? Everyone&#8217;s been there &#8212; the trick is to start with one foot already out the door.<\/p>\n<p>Put a reminder in your phone telling you to lay out your clothes the night before a workout. If you&#8217;re planning on exercising later in the day or will change at the gym, place your clothes (and everything else you&#8217;ll need) in a bag right by the door so you can&#8217;t possibly forget them!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Put the Fork Down Between Bites:<\/strong> Scientists have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.health.harvard.edu\/blog\/why-eating-slowly-may-help-you-feel-full-faster-20101019605\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">determined<\/a> that it takes your stomach up to 20 minutes to get the message to your brain that you&#8217;re full. So you can probably see how eating in a hurry will frequently lead to overeating, which obviously <a href=\"https:\/\/www.momspire.com\/healthy-lose-weight-fast\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">leads to weight gain<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Take time to enjoy pleasant conversation or something nice to read during your meal by placing your fork down between every bite. Even if you&#8217;re not reading or talking this will cause you to eat slower, giving your brain plenty of time to catch up and preventing you from eating too much.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch Out for &#8220;Health&#8221; Foods:<\/strong> Eating the right things is the most important factor when it comes to losing weight. Hours upon hours in the gym will be worthless if you&#8217;re not consuming the right foods, and taking in the right amount of calories each day.<\/p>\n<p>So you&#8217;re probably feeling pretty good when you say no to a bag of chips and instead have a protein bar. Unfortunately, many foods you see marketed as healthy these days are absolutely not. Ignore the labeling and instead pay attention to the nutritional content on everything you eat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eat Your Veggies:<\/strong>\u00a0Nutrition researcher John Barban has long been known for his focus on the inherent differences between men and women when it comes to getting results from diet and exercise.
