A review article of 40 studies found that intermittent fasting was effective for weight loss, with a typical loss of 7-11 pounds over 10 weeks. Limit the number of foods you eat at each meal and snack: There's a scientific reason why you'll overconsume calories when you enjoy a holiday dinner, at a party, or when eating from a buffet—it's called sensory-specific satiety. Sensory-specific satiety is a psychological phenomenon that plays a key role in limiting food intake. Skip high-fat, high-sugar, highly processed foods: When we eat foods that have high glycemic loads, it triggers a feel-good dopamine response in the brain. When the response diminishes, it makes us crave these foods more, despite not even having any physiological hunger. Sleep more: Emerging research suggests that getting an adequate amount of sleep plays a crucial role in controlling hunger hormones and preventing overeating. Eat more oats: Starting your day with a bowl of oatmeal or refreshing overnight oats can help fuel your satisfaction. Oats are rich in soluble fiber, particularly beta-glucans, which have been extensively studied for their appetite-suppressing effects.

| 5 Simple Ways to Boost Your Fruit and Veggie Intake | Choose what you love: Stop trying to force yourself (and your loved ones) to eat fruits or veggies that they don't enjoy. Or, rather, try preparing them a different way, with ingredients that everyone likes. Look to your condiments: The secret weapon for boosting the flavor of your produce could be right in front of you (or at least in your kitchen cabinet and on your fridge shelves). One of my favorite vegetable hacks is coating your veggies with mustard before air frying. Sneak veggies into your go-to dishes: Ground mushrooms are an amazing add-in to any ground meat like beef, turkey, or chicken to increase bulk and stretch your meat budget. Simply pulse them in a blender or food processor until ground but not pureed, mix them with the meat and cook as usual. Make a stir fry: When in doubt, throw some veggies in a wok. It is a versatile dish that allows us to change the flavors and textures of vegetables. Turn veggies into fries: Make a more nutritious version of your favorite salty treat by turning veggies into fries. Chop up carrots, parsnips, or zucchini into dippable stick shapes, and toss them in extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil and add your favorite seasonings.
