If you feel you're doing all the right things and still not shedding weight, listen up.
"We see this a lot—people with the best intentions to be healthier try to include more vegetables at meals, which is fantastic, but they don't realize that the oil or butter that the vegetables are cooked in or marinated with can really add up," The Nutrition Twins explain."Some vegetables mop up the oil and butter even more, like eggplant, mushrooms, squash, and peppers, adding several hundred calories to each meal.
But don't stop ordering veggies—just ask for them steamed! If you need an extra flavor boost, squeezing fresh lemon or lime juice on your veggies is always a good idea."It's one of the best tricks that top chefs use and it's perfect if you're watching your waistline since it doesn't add any calories," The Nutrition Twins add.
"Carbs are the fuel for your brain and your muscles, and when you cut them out, it's not uncommon to feel exhausted and get intense carbohydrate or sugar cravings as your brain and body need a quick pick-me-up. This often results in bingeing on the very food you're trying to avoid," The Nutrition Twins explain.
In order to prevent this from occurring, be mindful of how you feel when you cut out carbs from a meal. Do you feel fatigued later on, or does this result in bingeing?"If so, make a conscious effort to include a small amount of wholesome carbs at each meal," The Nutrition Twins suggest.
If you're still feeling tired and/or go on a binge afterward, bump up your carb intake a little more until you find the right amount that works.
