Eat Some Nuts and More Mindful Eating
You can also consider nuts as a go-to snack. They are a very portable food that you may eat without worrying that it will affect your blood sugar levels negatively. Nuts are high in healthy fats and low in carbohydrates, nuts, whether consumed alone or with meals, can help maintain stable blood sugar levels. For instance, the USDA reports that an ounce of almonds has only 6 grams of carbohydrates and 164 calories. Try to consume five 1-ounce servings of nuts per week, such as cashews, almonds, and pistachios.
Be more mindful about healthy eating and eating habits. Cut the habit of having lunch in front of the computer or having your dinner while watching TV at night. It is important that we are in control of our hunger and fullness, knowing when to stop eating, being present when you eat, and evaluating the emotional impact of food. Additionally, Mindful eating can also assist you in controlling your appetite and avoiding binge eating, both of which can contribute to weight gain.
