Losing weight is an age-old dilemma for many people, so what is the best way to go about it in 2023?
ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Losing weight is right up there with exercising more and getting organized as favorite New Year’s resolutions, but remains a personal issue with no one-size-fits-all solution.
“I see weight loss being their main focus, which is such an interesting way to approach health,” Hughes said. “That is just one piece of data where, you know, if you choose to follow a fad diet or some cookie cutter program, you’re not empowering yourself with nutrition knowledge, and really individualizing it to yourself to make it sustainable.”
“Dietitians usually take the approach of, what can we add in more of, you know, that’s going to benefit your health,” Hughes said. “And yes, I am a big proponent of vegetables, but if we’re not there yet, maybe it’s fruit, maybe it’s less processed food, maybe it’s nuts and seeds or things that, you know, are still promoting health, and something they actually want to do, is a good place to start.
“I really encourage people to start tuning into their hunger and fullness and applying some mindfulness practices while eating,” Hughes said. “Which could look like taking a pause before sitting down looking at your environment, maybe presenting food more exciting or flavorful, or trying new things.”
