Secrets to losing weight in the long term
Some highlights from new research published by the Harvard School of Public Health, which studied 120,000 people over a 20-year period:
- Eating more nuts and yoghurt daily had more effect on weight loss than eating fruits and veggies daily.
- Worst foods to eat that are linked to weight gain? Chips add an extra 1.69 lbs per four years for every serving a day over the average, yikes. Sugary drinks and meat also pack on the weight over time.
- Sleeping between six to eight hours minimizes weight gain.
- Cutting down on TV time also key on staying trim.
I can handle including more yogurt and nuts in my diet. As for cutting down on chip consumption, getting more sleep and watching less TV, that’ll be way tougher…
