No matter if you are on a weight loss journey, looking to maintain a healthy weight for your body type, or simply want to feel better, this is my best advice for you.
1. Quit sugar (and with that processed foods)
Crucially, when you ditch sugar you also end up phasing out many other sources of junk in your diet like refined flours, processed soy, chemical additives, and highly processed oils.
For me, ditching sugar allowed me to control my weight loss and maintain my weight. My skin cleared up, I stopped having regular cravings, and I had way more energy because I wasn't crashing from sugar all the time!

2. Reduce grain intake (eat more vegetables)
Key: if you are eating grains, stick to the right portion size for you. Starchy vegetables for carb sources like squashes and potatoes are also great instead of grains, or if you want choose healthier grains like quinoa, oats, etc.
3. Less snacking - it's okay to be a little hungry!
Don't get me wrong, it is okay to eat snacks when you are hungry. But, choose the right kinds of snacks - not something packed with sugar or that is highly processed and full of junk!
Check out my classic snacks post for some ideas on healthy snacking.
My fix: I eat 4 meals a day instead of three. If you can't go 3-6 hours without eating, make your meals a little bigger!
Most importantly, enjoy life!
