There may be nothing more satisfying in the world, then sitting down at the table with your family and friends, and enjoying a home-cooked meal.
However, overdoing it at dinner may put the brakes on your fat loss plans!
Why?
Well, the truth is: Although all your meals, snacks, and drinks are important…
Dinnertime may be the easiest time to go overboard on your favorite fixings…having seconds (or even thirds)…and having a few too many adult beverages.
And all those extra calories, well, they could easily end up packed on your hips, butt, or thighs!
If you want to improve your fat loss, then I would suggest you avoid making these THREE mistakes at dinner:
1. You Dine and Dash – To Bed
Eating right before bed may disrupt your sleeping patterns, therefore keeping you up, tossing and turning all night.
And as you know, sleeping is vital to a healthy metabolism!
Not getting the right amount of sleep at night may cause you to crave calorie-rich foods that only add to your waistline.
If you can, try to eat a few hours before bed. And if you need to eat right before bed, choose a small snack - full of protein -to last you throughout the night.
2. You Have the TV On
One of the worst things you can do for your fat loss is to eat while watching TV.
Mindless eating may cause you to overeat, therefore adding too many calories to your body.
This could ruin all the good you did throughout the day AND boost your fat/weight gain.
3. You Go “All In” on Carbs
Carbs are a necessary ingredient to a healthy fat loss program.
BUT:
If you eat too many carbs (like a big bowl of pasta or an extra-large baked potato) then you could end up regretting your decision.
Besides adding too many calories to your meal, too many carbs could spike your blood sugar levels.
And this crazy spike in blood sugar will spike your insulin levels too! And when insulin is present, any excess calories could end up being stored as fat!
The easiest way to maintain your fat loss – and eat carbs too – is to choose carbs wisely and be sensible with your portions.
Lose Fat By Eating Sensibly At Dinner
Dinner may easily be the biggest meal – and the time when people cheat the most.
And that could lead to an increase in your waist, hip, butt, or thighs.
But, if you eat sensibly at dinner – meaning you avoid large portions, avoid eating before bed, and avoiding watching the TV at dinner – then you may be able to keep your fat loss on track.
