Losing 75 pounds and maintaining that weight loss is a significant accomplishment. One woman successfully achieved this by making two simple changes while still enjoying her favorite foods.
1. Mindful Eating The first change she made was adopting mindful eating practices. Instead of mindlessly eating, she focused on eating slowly, savoring each bite, and tuning into her hunger and fullness cues.
This allowed her to better control portion sizes and avoid overeating. By being more present during meals, she was able to enjoy her favorite foods without guilt or excess.
2. Balanced Portion Control The second simple change was focusing on portion control. She learned to enjoy her favorite meals, but in moderation.
Instead of completely eliminating indulgent foods, she balanced them with healthier choices, ensuring her overall calorie intake aligned with her weight loss goals.
She practiced the 80/20 rule—80% of the time eating nutritious, balanced meals, and 20% of the time allowing for occasional treats.
Through these two simple changes, she not only lost 75 pounds but maintained her weight loss by adopting sustainable habits that were realistic and easy to maintain long-term.
