Maintain your weight and stay fit


Maintaining one's weight is just as tough as losing weight. Fortunately, there are ways to prevent your weight from fluctuating constantly.


A few simple points to keep in mind are:

1. Have breakfast: 
One should eat a proper breakfast before starting the day. Follow the old saying and eat a king size breakfast. It can have lots of oats, juices, milk. Make sure you avoid fried and oily food in the morning.

2. Eat slowly:
It is said that one should chew one's food about 30 times before taking the second bite. It helps in proper digestion. Digestion actually starts in the mouth, so the more you chew; the easier will the digestion process be.

3. Have meals in break:
Rather than having three huge meals a day, have small meals consisting of healthy fruits and vegetable dishes. Eat at least six small meals in a day.

4. Wash it down with water:
Drink at least one glass of water at intervals of half an hour. One should consume three to four liters every day to keep the body cool.

5. Exercise:
One need not necessarily join the gym. Even simple exercises like walking, running, jumping, skipping can help you maintain your weight. Make sure you do at least one physical activity for 30 minutes daily.

6. Late meals are a no-no:
Avoid having your dinner late in the night, since the number of activities you perform is less. Have light meals during the night.

7. No binging:
If one does feel hungry, they should avoid eating fast food and snacks like chips, oily food, pastries etc.


Such simple tips can help you to enjoy life to the fullest and fittest.
