#but eating the rich does sound like the most sensible option still-

// sometimes I think about how many times in bg3 you get conflicts that don't have an objectively "best" outcome. I think about freeing the 7000 vampires, for example. Freeing them is the ethical thing to do, because they are all innocent victims, but it remains true that leaving thousands of vampires loose, even in the underdark, is a bad bad idea. Not only are they traumatized people, but they're predators who have only their instincts to help them survive in an unfamiliar land that isn't exactly bountiful in terms of wildlife. If they don't do well, they'll die or be slaughtered, and if they do they'll ruin entire communities or ecosystems, depending on whether they feed on people or animals.

a memory of love's refrain

Pairing: Joe/Nicky

Summary: a snapshot of an evening spent in a small Brooklyn apartment // circa 1940's

Joe trudges up the long staircase, his boots heavy against the wrought metal. He’d bargained with Nicky about the cost of four flights of stairs against the beautiful view it awarded when they had first decided to move to Brooklyn, because Nicky had been convinced it would be better for them to stay somewhere closer to the ground, as it would award them a quicker escape. Joe had hushed him, insisting the view would be worth it, and that upon the rare chance such a getaway would be required, he’d personally carry Nicky out to save time.

Of course, no view could compare to that which greets him when he steps past the threshold, already unlacing his boots before the door has even shut behind him. Joe could spot Nicky in a sea of thousands, could find him by the guide of his soul with his eyes closed; it is not quite so difficult to see him here, bustling about their small kitchen. Nicky likes to put a record on while he prepares food, and the music is magical and mournful, the lyrics winding around the room, echoed by his low humming. The air is filled with the sharp scent of peppers and garlic, the melody punctuated by the rhythmic grind of a porcelain pestle and mortar, which Joe had made as an anniversary gift for Nicky some time before, though neither could quite remember what exactly they were celebrating.

“Take a photo, habibi, it will last longer.” .

Joe laughs softly, absentmindedly wiping any excess grease from his hands on his denim overalls as he crosses their small apartment. “No image could ever capture your ethereal beauty, tesoro mio, the camera would shatter in my very hands, struck down by divine intervention.”

Nicky turns, his back leant against the countertop. There’s a smudge of red paste across his cheek that Joe follows with his thumb, nipping at the pad even as the bright scent of chili tickles his nose. “Angelo,” he whispers, reverent. Nicky is leaning into his touch before Joe has noticed that he’d moved, hands caressing each side of Nicky’s face with a grace reserved for holy things.

“You’re making Ojja,” Joe hums, pressing warm kisses to every plane of Nicky’s face that he can reach. “Oh, angelo, it is not just your face that the heavens carved from marble, it is your very heart.”

“Incurable,” Nicky mutters, hooking his thumbs in the back pockets of Joe’s overalls. “It has been a long week. I do not know about you, but I am missing our family greatly, and this is as close as I can think to having them here with us.”

“Love is that which makes a home, and your food is almost as sweet with it as you are.” Joe rests his forehead against Nicky’s, which is good as saying ‘I miss them too’.

“I always enjoy watching Booker’s face redden as he pretends the spices do not affect his delicate French sensibilities.” Nicky says, nonchalantly. Joe barks out a laugh, rough and warm.

“Mon amour,” Joe teases. “You’ll just have to make it for them when they return.”

Booker and Andy were both in Europe anticipating the repercussions of war, and Joe and Nicky were in America, as it was groundwork which often brought the more reliable information. They had created a lovely little home in a brick apartment near a dockyard where Joe played engineer, while Nicky established a presence in the neighbourhood, occasionally taking up work bagging at the local grocers a few blocks away to maintain appearances. They were bachelors, both orphaned at a young age, living together to save money - and it was working. No one batted an eyelid. The truth didn’t matter. History taught that people never stayed discontent in their circumstances for long, and they could feel conflict upon the horizon like the electricity of an oncoming storm.

Joe pulls back, pressing a kiss to Nicky’s hairline. “I am the luckiest man in the world.” He swipes his pinky along the ridge of the mortar, touching the tip to Nicky’s tongue. “Do you taste that?”

“Tastes like harissa.” Nicky points out.

Joe shakes his head, kissing the corner of Nicky’s mouth, chasing the heat. “That is joy, vita mia, that is life and love.”

“If I had known you would have returned so hungry, I would have packed you an extra sandwich.” Nicky pulls Joe in until their hips are pressed flush. “The ojja will not take long to cook. I was hoping to have a dance before dinner but perhaps we should eat while the sun is still high.”

“I would eat your food, stone-cold and seasoned with gravel, if it meant I could share the meal with you by my side.” Joe curls his hand against the newly shaved nape of Nicky’s neck. “A dance does sound quite lovely, though.”

“Then it is agreed.” Nicky presses a quick kiss to Joe’s cheek, the skin beneath warm and flushed. “What shall we dance to first? Any preferences?”

Nicky walks over to the gramophone, his hand curled around Joe’s without thought. The gramophone stands on a small table next to the window, on the sill of which sits a pot that is filled with whichever flower Joe had most recently procured for Nicky. The other day he had brought home roses from a local florist, which had cost a few dollars and gotten him a nice ribbing from the boys down the docks for being sweet on his mystery woman. It was all worth it for the shine in Nicky’s eyes when he brought them close to his face and took in their sweet scent, for the way he had whispered thank you against Joe’s mouth and the tender care in which he watered them each morning. When the flowers crumble, Joe will make potpourri of them, and their apartment will linger with the memory of the petals even as a new flower, a dahlia perhaps if he can find one that suits, takes pride in the sunlight.

“Something romantic,” Joe says, as though there is ever any other option.

Nicky hums, his focus on the small stack of records leant against the wall. Joe slips an arm around Nicky’s waist, his chin hooked over Nicky’s shoulder, pressing an idle kiss to his collarbone. Nicky has folded the sleeves of his linen shirt up to his elbows, his forearms warmed by the August sun and dusted with golden hairs. If he weren’t so preoccupied, Joe would have kissed from his elbow down to the pulse point of his wrist and across each finger tip.

The gramophone crackles as the needle spins, and then cheerful, warm jazz fills the room, carrying the voice of Annette Hanshaw: “you have a great way, an up-to-date way, of telling me you love me, it gives me such a thrill, I know it always will.”

Joe hums, taking a step back only to offer his right hand to Nicky, his left folded behind his back as he bows his head. “Nicolò.”

Nicky smiles, a tender and private thing, for Joe’s eyes only. “Yusuf.” The curve of his palm is a perfect fit against Joe’s open hand.

Joe presses a warm kiss against the ridges of Nicky’s knuckles. “It would be the greatest honour of my life to dance with you around our kitchen on this fine evening.”

Outside the window, a pigeon coos. Nicky’s head tilts. “While I feel it necessary to point out that I did ask you first, if I recall correctly, you professed the very exact thing last night.”

Joe, undeterred, draws on Nicky’s hand to bring him closer. “Then, perhaps you would do me the honour twice? You know, they invented music for lovers.”

Nicky’s eyebrows creep up, the corner of his mouth drawn up into a sly smile. “Yusuf, I’m not sure there is anything in existence which you don’t believe was invented for lovers. Everything from the moon, to a simple loaf of bread, to the game of chess.”

Joe undoes the top two buttons of Nicky’s shirt, leaving the front of his chest exposed, his collarbone protruding like a hawk’s wing. “Everything that I am, that I do, is borne from love.” He slips his hand beneath Nicky’s shirt, palm pressed over his heart. “Who would I be without it? Who would I be if I had not fallen for my beautiful enemy?”

Joe makes a pointed noise in the back of his throat, shaking his head just enough that his curls, when he ducks his head to press a kiss against Nicky’s sternum, brush against the underside of Nicky’s chin. “Every day that I wake up next to you is a good day, for I get to live it in your shadow.”

Nicky’s hands cradle Joe’s face, as though he is holding something precious, a great treasure worth revering.

“Yusuf.” Nicky tips his forehead against Joe’s, his lips brushing against the bridge of Joe’s nose.

He’d broken it the second day of their acquaintance, swung his arm wide with a force so great it sent Joe sprawling to the floor. Joe had laughed through bloody hands, his lips and teeth stained bright red. It was the first sign of fire that he’d ever seen in Nicky, and that same spark flickers behind Nicky’s eyes now.

“You have never been in my shadow.” Nicky whispers. “You have always been my sun.”

He draws Joe in for a deep kiss, stepping back and trusting that Joe will follow, and he always does - he’d once walked to the ends of the earth across burning sand without even knowing Nicky’s name. The rest is easy.

“If music was made for lovers as you so profess, then we must dance to it.” Nicky whispers against Joe’s cheek, letting his arms rest on Joe’s shoulders, his hands hooked loosely behind his neck.

They sway, from one side to the other, and it’s less a dance and more the flow of the record rising from within them, their bodies moving in time with the echo of their hearts. Joe clutches at Nicky’s elbow, fingers caught in the linen, soft against his worn touch. His other hand slips around to press against the small of Nicky’s back, at the bottom of his spine, where Joe had once run him through with a scimitar.

The gramophone skips, Nat King Cole’s rich voice filling the room. Nicky tips his head, his eyes half-lidded. Joe hums along, soothing his hand up Nicky’s arm and around his shoulder, his fingers tapping along the ridge of Nicky’s spine. Nicky hides his smile against the cut of Joe’s jaw, pressing a kiss to his pulse point, letting the warmth of Joe’s skin radiate around him, the scent of saltwater from the docks mixing with the orange notes of his cologne, at once familiar and calming.

“Would you sing for me, Nicolò?” Joe asks, his hands tracing secrets and lines against Nicky’s back. Nicky doesn’t protest about how his voice isn’t that great, because he knows it would be a waste of time, and besides that, he doesn’t mind.

“The melody haunts my reverie and I am once again with you,” His voice is low, and it cracks on some of the words, but he can feel Joe’s smile against his ear, knows his eyes are closed. He insists it helps him hear better. “When our love was new and each kiss an inspiration.”

Joe peppers the line of Nicky’s neck with half-open kisses, peeling the collar of his shirt back as far as he can, across his shoulder and down his chest, his breath ghosting across Nicky’s skin in huffs of heated air.

“But that was long ago,” Nicky’s voice drops to a whisper. “And now my consolation is in the stardust of a song.”

The sun has already begun to sink into the horizon. Nicky pulls back, admiring the way the sunlight casts Joe’s profile in shadows, caught in his air, reflecting off the gold in his eyes.

They’ll have to eat by candlelight tonight. Joe will love it.

Trying to Lose Weight? Avoid these 11 Mistakes

Weight loss seems to be a concern for many. As simple it might look, weight loss can be a difficult process which requires constant patience and efforts. It is a gradual process and requires a healthy lifestyle and regular physical activity. When weight loss becomes your aim, most people opt for diets like keto diet, intermittent fasting, and many such diets. Here at Billion Cheers, we researched the most common weight loss mistakes and wanted to share them with you Among the things you should do, there are also things you shouldn’t, and these mistakes can halt or even reverse your progress.

11 Weight Loss Mistakes beginners make:

[caption id="attachment_3313" align="aligncenter" width="700"]

reading product labels is necessary[/caption] 1. Not reading labels This is first in our list of weight loss mistakes. Many packaged foods these days have healthy-sounding claims on the front of the package that fool you into believing they’re actually good for you. But have you ever checked the nutrition label? On Checking, you’ll notice that most of those claims aren’t supported by any truthful information. Another mistake you make when not reading labels is assuming that one package means one serving. Did you know that one serving of chips is only 13 to 16 chips? There’s definitely more than that in even the smallest bag. So always check the list of ingredients and the nutrition label on the back of the package, and don’t forget to take note of the serving size, as well. This way, you’ll make sure you only eat what you actually need. 2. Weighing yourself too often While weighing yourself every day will not directly hinder weight loss, it can lead to a lot of frustration. It’s important to remember that healthy, successful weight loss is a slow process. The actual number on the scales can be affected by different reasons from day to day, for example, natural weight fluctuations during the menstrual cycle or gaining muscle through strength training. When you don’t see the results you want to see on the scales, you might get discouraged and binge eats, which could set your weight loss journey way back. Try using a tape measure around your waist, hips, and thighs to track your progress once a week. If you really need to weigh yourself to keep yourself motivated, do it no more than once a week or even once every 2 weeks. 3. Focusing on cardio and ignoring strength training You can safely say that some exercise is better than no exercise at all. But if you’ve been watching your diet, doing cardio, and leading an overall healthy lifestyle, yet your weight loss is not as good as you think it should be, the reason might be the lack of strength training. Resistance training not only helps you build muscle, but it also boosts your metabolism and promotes belly fat loss. Combine cardio and resistance training for best results. You can do them on alternate days or even on the same day if you have enough time. 4. Forgetting about sugar and calories in drinks Do you know how much sugar your favorite Starbucks order has? Most popular Starbucks drinks have between 40 g and 60 g of sugar! It is 2-3 times as much as the maximum amount you should eat in a day — and that’s just from one drink! Soda, fruit juices, beer, and wine are also full of carbs and calories that still leave you hungry because the appetite centers in your brain don’t react to liquid calories the same way as they do to calories from food.

The solution is to drink water! If you can’t stand the blandness of plain water, try adding lemon wedges, your favorite berries, or mint leaves to it to give it some taste. Unsweetened green tea is also a good beverage option. 5. Skipping meals is one of the worst weight loss mistakes Probably the most common mistake people make when trying to lose weight is skipping breakfast or dinner. But if you reduce your food intake this way, you’ll definitely lose weight faster. However, skipping meals not only slows down your metabolism but it also makes you much more likely to snack and overeat later in the day. Make sure you eat a healthy, nutrient-rich breakfast that will give you energy and prevent you from eating too much later. The perfect breakfast combines good carbs with fiber and protein — oatmeal, eggs, and Greek yogurt with fruit are all good healthy-breakfast options. 6. Limiting too much Reducing portion sizes is one of the most common pieces of advice for people trying to lose weight. But, it’s obviously unhealthy. And, when your calorie intake is too low, your metabolism slows down in trying to preserve limited energy, making it harder for you to lose weight. Another mistake connected to restrictions is cutting out your favorite “bad” foods completely. This usually leads to serious cravings and to satisfy those cravings, you either eat too much of other foods or, if you restrict yourself for too long, end up gorging on your favorite “forbidden” treats and giving up on your diet altogether. So do eat sensible-sized portions that will satiate you but won’t make you feel too full. Allow yourself a cheat meal once in a while. 1-2 cheat meals a week will help you deal with your cravings while allowing you to stay on track with your diet. 7. Choosing low-fat and fat-free processed foods Low-fat and fat-free foods are usually promoted as healthy-eating options — and many people believe this. What they don’t know is that these foods are often loaded with sugar and other additives to improve their taste. For example, a fat-free flavored drinking yogurt can contain as much sugar as a chocolate bar! Surely, that yogurt doesn’t seem all that healthy anymore, does it?

So choose minimally processed and unprocessed whole foods — both those that are naturally low in fat and those that contain healthy fats. 8. Not getting enough sleep At first glance, it doesn’t look like sleep and losing weight have anything in common, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Sleep deprivation leads to the levels of leptin (the “fullness hormone”) to plummet down while ghrelin (the “hunger hormone”) gets overproduced. As a result, you’ll always feel hungry, so you’ll eat more and your body weight will increase. Besides, the less sleep you’re getting, the more you crave high-fat and high-carb foods. And since you’ll be feeling so tired, you find it practically impossible to say no to those cravings. [caption id="attachment_2379" align="aligncenter" width="700"]

sleeping is important[/caption] Adults need between 7 to 9 hours of sleep to stay healthy. If you have trouble falling asleep, try creating a bedtime routine and sticking to a schedule. 9. Not eating enough fiber When you’re trying to lose weight, it’s important to incorporate enough fiber-rich foods into your diet. Soluble fiber is especially helpful since it absorbs water and turns to gel, which moves slowly through your digestive system and makes you feel full longer. Therefore, eat a fiber-rich diet. Oatmeal, nuts, peeled fruits, and beans are high in soluble fiber, while whole grains, brown rice, leafy vegetables, and fruit skins are good sources of insoluble fiber. 10. Having unrealistic expectations Setting realistic, long-term goals for weight loss is a must. It’s understandable you want to lose as much as you can and do it as quickly as possible, but that can only be achieved through crash-dieting, which is neither good for your health nor helpful in maintaining your weight after weight loss. Try to adjust your expectations to a more realistic goal. For best long-term results, aim to lose one to 2 pounds a week. And now onto our final weight loss mistakes list. 11. Overeating healthy foods It’s easy to overeat healthy foods — you know they’re good for you, so you think a bigger portion won’t hurt. However, despite their health status, they can still lead to weight gain. Calories are still calories (and excess calories mean excess weight), even if they come from nutrient-rich whole foods, and foods like nuts, avocado, hummus, quinoa, and brown rice are pretty high in calories, to begin with. Start looking up single servings of healthy foods and stick to them. A single serving of avocado, for example, is 1/3 of a whole avocado. It’s fine to eat more than that, but it is necessary to keep the serving size in mind. SUMMARY Most of you must find some of these weight loss mistakes surprising. The formula for weight loss is simple: the amount of calories burned has to be greater than the number of calories consumed. Eat right and healthy at the right interval of time and do talk to your doctor or nutritionist about creating a plan of action that best meets your needs and most importantly get complete knowledge about what you are intaking.

8 High Fat And Ketogenic Super Foods That Help You Lose Weight 

8 High Fat Super Foods That Help You Lose Weight

In any case, fear not, in this article I'll address a portion of the best sound high fat sustenances that you ought to incorporate into your eating regimen to enable you to remain full, upgrade your hormones, wellbeing and even lift weight reduction. Healthy Fats -1: Whole Eggs  At the highest priority on this rundown is, obviously, the unbelievable super nourishment, entire eggs. A protein pressed, genuinely high fat nourishment, eggs give an extensive variety of supplements, fat and cholesterol that can help streamline muscle, support weight reduction and upgrade hormones (1). As opposed to the customary carb-filled breakfast, that such a significant number of claim or accept is important, contemplates have really demonstrated a protein and fat-filled breakfast helps in fat misfortune, as decreasing carbs can be an awesome option procedure with regards to weight reduction (2). One of the main purposes for the advantages of egg utilization is the egg's high protein content. As you may know, more than 100 investigations have demonstrated that ingesting protein straightforwardly expands your digestion, brings down appetite, keeps up a consistent vitality level and lifts general weight reduction. Moreover, while many individuals mistake dietary cholesterol for cholesterol levels in the blood, solid dietary cholesterol is really incredible for wellbeing. On account of eggs, they give the building squares to hormones, for example, testosterone and estrogen which are enter in the human body and can likewise help lessen muscle to fat ratio when kept up inside a sound high range (3). Healthy Fats -2: Avocados  Avocados have obviously advanced onto this rundown and are outstanding as a super nourishment. Avocados really do have a lot of fat, coming in around 21 grams for every serving, except give various different advantages that warrant utilization, as long as you are controlling aggregate calorie consumption. The principle reason they are so sound is on the grounds that the essential wellspring of avocado's fat is a fat called oleic corrosive. Strangely this fat may really help advance weight reduction and lift wellbeing to a more noteworthy degree than other fat sources. In one examination, they found that, when subjects ingested oleic corrosive, it really flagged their brains that nourishment accessibility was high and lessened appetite, helping them expend less aggregate sustenance (4). After some time, the diminishment in calories is key for weight reduction, making avocado a sensible weight reduction nourishment in spite of its high fat substance (simply keep it to 1 every day!). Healthy Fats -3: Whole Fat High Protein Greek Yogurt  Notwithstanding being scrumptious, entire fat high protein Greek yogurt is outstanding amongst other nibble combos giving you an ideal adjust of protein and fat. Coming in at around 21 grams of protein for every serving, you'd be unable to discover another item that gives as much to the cost and comfort that yogurt does. Moreover, Greek yogurt contains a lot of live probiotics, which have been connected various circumstances to emphatically impacting gut wellbeing and thus support wellbeing and advance fat misfortune. Advantages, for example, enhanced assimilation, diminished aggravation, enhanced resistant reaction and even decreased indications of sadness have all been connected to probiotic utilization (5, 6, 7, 8, 9). Notwithstanding the potential muscle building properties, considers have likewise uncovered that ingestion of yogurt can prompt better hunger control and diminishment in body weight (10). high fat nourishments Healthy Fats - 4: Cheese  Cheddar is another super top notch protein stuffed, high fat bite that can enable you to feel fulfilled, in this manner diminishing your sustenance admission. Notwithstanding a decent measure of protein and fat per serving, cheddar is additionally a rich wellspring of calcium that can help with bone wellbeing, circulatory strain and even weight reduction (11). Furthermore, a few cheeses, for example, Cheddar and Gouda can really give probiotic microscopic organisms, which, as specified prior, can be extremely valuable for wellbeing. The main worry with cheddar is that it is exceptionally calorie thick and furthermore extremely moreish. This implies it may not be awesome for the individuals who tend to over eat and can't simply have a little sum. When abstaining from food, bring down fat cheddar is as yet a decent alternative as it will give more protein and still loads of sound fats. Healthy Fats -5: Olive Oil  As of late olive oil has risen as a leader in cooking oils because of its evasion of oxidation amid warming and to various also noteworthy medical advantages. Like avocados, olive oil is rich in the monounsaturated fat, oleic corrosive. As of now specified, this corrosive can give various advantages running from enhanced fat misfortune to fending off aggravation (12). Instead of cooking with vegetable oils, which have been connected to aggravation and have a low smoking point (which means they oxidize and separate effortlessly), I prescribe you decide on a heart-wellbeing, calming olive oil whenever you cook (13). Keep in mind, olive oil is additionally incredible on plates of mixed greens joined with balsamic vinegar for a low carb and super solid dressing. Healthy Fats -6: Coconut Oil  Following on from the last point, coconut oil has turned into a big name soaked fat, getting predominant press consideration due to its remarkable advantages. One of the explanation behind this is because of the way that coconut oil contains a lot of medium chain triglycerides, otherwise called MCTs. These MCTs are extraordinary in that they are used uniquely in contrast to different sorts of fats. These fats are immediately separated in the digestive system and afterward utilized by the liver(14). Fundamentally this implies these unsaturated fats have a troublesome time being put away as muscle versus fat, contrasted with different sorts of fat, and can add to expanded levels of vitality. Healthy Fats -7: Dark Chocolate  Devouring dull chocolate over 85% may really be very useful for wellbeing, weight reduction and diminish your yearnings for 'awful' nourishment. Indeed, one investigation demonstrated that a cancer prevention agent called epicatechin in cocoa is really connected to expanded development of mitochondria, the muscle to fat ratio's consuming cells. By expanding the development of these cells, there is a more noteworthy probability of processing fat as vitality. Moreover, a similar cancer prevention agent has additionally been connected to enhanced athletic execution. Subsequently, this could prompt better execution and a more prominent probability of diminishing body weight (15, 16). Dull chocolate is additionally extremely solid, which means you'll likely just need 2 squares to feel satisfied, as opposed to a whole piece like general chocolate. Keep in mind that drain chocolate, while flavorful, is generally included sugar and drain and just around 25% cocoa. Guarantee that you settle on a dim chocolate decision that is over 85% cocoa to get the advantages without all the additional undesirable fats and sugar. Healthy Fats -8: Salmon  Salmon is a sort of greasy fish that is rich in Omega-3 unsaturated fats. Without a doubt you've heard that Omega-3 unsaturated fats are important for wellbeing. This is to a great extent a direct result of the impact that the two most imperative ones, EPA and DHA, have on heart and cerebrum wellbeing. This is generally in light of the fact that the western eating regimen is immersed with expert fiery Omega-6 unsaturated fats. By devouring Omega-3s you can balance this proportion of master irritation with hostile to aggravation to advance ideal wellbeing. Truth be told, ponders have even connected expanded utilization of Omega-3 rich fish to decreases in discouragement and enhancements in psychological decay (17, 18). Mean to expend one part of salmon or other slick fish every day, or then again, on days when you are not eating fish, devour a day by day measure of around 2-3g of high quality fish oil/omega 3 supplements high fat nourishments The Healthiest Fats and Ketogenic Foods on the Planet  Only a couple of years back, utilization of fat was defamed and seen to be the reason for our present sick wellbeing and corpulence scourge.

Trying to Lose Weight? Avoid these 11 Mistakes

Weight loss seems to be a concern for many. As simple it might look, weight loss can be a difficult process which requires constant patience and efforts. It is a gradual process and requires a healthy lifestyle and regular physical activity. When weight loss becomes your aim, most people opt for diets like keto diet, intermittent fasting, and many such diets. Here at Billion Cheers, we researched the most common weight loss mistakes and wanted to share them with you

Among the things you should do, there are also things you shouldn’t, and these mistakes can halt or even reverse your progress.

11 Weight Loss Mistakes beginners make:

reading product labels is necessary

1. Not reading labels

This is first in our list of weight loss mistakes. Many packaged foods these days have healthy-sounding claims on the front of the package that fool you into believing they’re actually good for you. But have you ever checked the nutrition label? On Checking, you’ll notice that most of those claims aren’t supported by any truthful information.

Another mistake you make when not reading labels is assuming that one package means one serving. Did you know that one serving of chips is only 13 to 16 chips? There’s definitely more than that in even the smallest bag. So always check the list of ingredients and the nutrition label on the back of the package, and don’t forget to take note of the serving size, as well. This way, you’ll make sure you only eat what you actually need.

2. Weighing yourself too often

While weighing yourself every day will not directly hinder weight loss, it can lead to a lot of frustration. It’s important to remember that healthy, successful weight loss is a slow process. The actual number on the scales can be affected by different reasons from day to day, for example, natural weight fluctuations during the menstrual cycle or gaining muscle through strength training. When you don’t see the results you want to see on the scales, you might get discouraged and binge eats, which could set your weight loss journey way back.

Try using a tape measure around your waist, hips, and thighs to track your progress once a week. If you really need to weigh yourself to keep yourself motivated, do it no more than once a week or even once every 2 weeks.

3. Focusing on cardio and ignoring strength training

You can safely say that some exercise is better than no exercise at all. But if you’ve been watching your diet, doing cardio, and leading an overall healthy lifestyle, yet your weight loss is not as good as you think it should be, the reason might be the lack of strength training. Resistance training not only helps you build muscle, but it also boosts your metabolism and promotes belly fat loss.

Combine cardio and resistance training for best results. You can do them on alternate days or even on the same day if you have enough time.

4. Forgetting about sugar and calories in drinks

Do you know how much sugar your favorite Starbucks order has? Most popular Starbucks drinks have between 40 g and 60 g of sugar! It is 2-3 times as much as the maximum amount you should eat in a day — and that’s just from one drink! Soda, fruit juices, beer, and wine are also full of carbs and calories that still leave you hungry because the appetite centers in your brain don’t react to liquid calories the same way as they do to calories from food.

The solution is to drink water! If you can’t stand the blandness of plain water, try adding lemon wedges, your favorite berries, or mint leaves to it to give it some taste. Unsweetened green tea is also a good beverage option.

5. Skipping meals is one of the worst weight loss mistakes

Probably the most common mistake people make when trying to lose weight is skipping breakfast or dinner. But if you reduce your food intake this way, you’ll definitely lose weight faster. However, skipping meals not only slows down your metabolism but it also makes you much more likely to snack and overeat later in the day.

Make sure you eat a healthy, nutrient-rich breakfast that will give you energy and prevent you from eating too much later. The perfect breakfast combines good carbs with fiber and protein — oatmeal, eggs, and Greek yogurt with fruit are all good healthy-breakfast options.

6. Limiting too much

Reducing portion sizes is one of the most common pieces of advice for people trying to lose weight. But, it’s obviously unhealthy. And, when your calorie intake is too low, your metabolism slows down in trying to preserve limited energy, making it harder for you to lose weight.

Another mistake connected to restrictions is cutting out your favorite “bad” foods completely. This usually leads to serious cravings and to satisfy those cravings, you either eat too much of other foods or, if you restrict yourself for too long, end up gorging on your favorite “forbidden” treats and giving up on your diet altogether.

So do eat sensible-sized portions that will satiate you but won’t make you feel too full. Allow yourself a cheat meal once in a while. 1-2 cheat meals a week will help you deal with your cravings while allowing you to stay on track with your diet.

7. Choosing low-fat and fat-free processed foods

Low-fat and fat-free foods are usually promoted as healthy-eating options — and many people believe this. What they don’t know is that these foods are often loaded with sugar and other additives to improve their taste. For example, a fat-free flavored drinking yogurt can contain as much sugar as a chocolate bar! Surely, that yogurt doesn’t seem all that healthy anymore, does it?

So choose minimally processed and unprocessed whole foods — both those that are naturally low in fat and those that contain healthy fats.

8. Not getting enough sleep

At first glance, it doesn’t look like sleep and losing weight have anything in common, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Sleep deprivation leads to the levels of leptin (the “fullness hormone”) to plummet down while ghrelin (the “hunger hormone”) gets overproduced. As a result, you’ll always feel hungry, so you’ll eat more and your body weight will increase.

Besides, the less sleep you’re getting, the more you crave high-fat and high-carb foods. And since you’ll be feeling so tired, you find it practically impossible to say no to those cravings.

sleeping is important

Adults need between 7 to 9 hours of sleep to stay healthy. If you have trouble falling asleep, try creating a bedtime routine and sticking to a schedule.

9. Not eating enough fiber

When you’re trying to lose weight, it’s important to incorporate enough fiber-rich foods into your diet. Soluble fiber is especially helpful since it absorbs water and turns to gel, which moves slowly through your digestive system and makes you feel full longer.

Therefore, eat a fiber-rich diet. Oatmeal, nuts, peeled fruits, and beans are high in soluble fiber, while whole grains, brown rice, leafy vegetables, and fruit skins are good sources of insoluble fiber.

10. Having unrealistic expectations

Setting realistic, long-term goals for weight loss is a must. It’s understandable you want to lose as much as you can and do it as quickly as possible, but that can only be achieved through crash-dieting, which is neither good for your health nor helpful in maintaining your weight after weight loss.

Try to adjust your expectations to a more realistic goal. For best long-term results, aim to lose one to 2 pounds a week. And now onto our final weight loss mistakes list.

11. Overeating healthy foods

It’s easy to overeat healthy foods — you know they’re good for you, so you think a bigger portion won’t hurt. However, despite their health status, they can still lead to weight gain. Calories are still calories (and excess calories mean excess weight), even if they come from nutrient-rich whole foods, and foods like nuts, avocado, hummus, quinoa, and brown rice are pretty high in calories, to begin with.

Start looking up single servings of healthy foods and stick to them. A single serving of avocado, for example, is 1/3 of a whole avocado. It’s fine to eat more than that, but it is necessary to keep the serving size in mind.

SUMMARY

Most of you must find some of these weight loss mistakes surprising. The formula for weight loss is simple: the amount of calories burned has to be greater than the number of calories consumed. Eat right and healthy at the right interval of time and do talk to your doctor or nutritionist about creating a plan of action that best meets your needs and most importantly get complete knowledge about what you are intaking.
