going to rain you of course drive a little more cautiously, you drive to the conditions.
In the case of eating, you eat to the conditions. If you know that you are out to play an intense game of tennis for the evening then you consume extra carbs for energy. If on the other hand you’re going to be sitting in a movie theatre for 2 hours then you consume a little less as you won’t be undertaking any physical activity to burn it off.
Your diet should be higher in complex carbohydrates as it takes your body longer to break them down meaning a slow, steady release of energy. This is the best route to take for weight loss as simple carbs tend to release energy too quickly into your bloodstream giving you massive highs and lows. Also the slow release means the less likely you are to contract Type II diabetes at some point in your life. However don’t forget that any carbohydrate consumption must always be accompanied with exercise.
We Have All Of This Knowledge – Now What?
With everything we’ve spoken about up until this point, it boils down to 2 things that you need to lose weight for good. What you eat and how much you move.
You should eat sensibly. That’s not to say that you can’t have the occasional treat from time to time, just not every day. A lot of these foods were absent from market shelves and from society just 50 short years ago and the weight of the average person reflected this. So it stands to reason that it is how we are eating that is keeping the weight on our bodies. If we just shift our eating by reducing the high fat, simple carbohydrate foods and move a little more like our ancestors did, we will lose the weight.
Eat a balanced diet and you’re well on your way.
