Weight loss tips: 5 mistakes to avoid

Apurwa Amit

Here are 5 common mistakes to avoid when trying to lose weight:

Skipping Meals: Many people think that skipping meals will help them lose weight, but it can lead to overeating later. It's important to eat regular, balanced meals.

 Fad Diets: These diets often promise quick results but are not sustainable. They can also lead to nutrient deficiencies. Focus on a balanced diet instead.

 Not Drinking Enough Water: Staying hydrated is crucial for overall health and can help control hunger. Aim for at least 8 glasses of water a day.

Overestimating Exercise: While exercise is important, relying solely on it for weight loss can be misleading. Diet plays a significant role too.

Not Getting Enough Sleep: Lack of sleep can affect hormones that regulate hunger, leading to increased cravings and weight gain.
