9 Eating Habits That Stop You From Losing Weight

1. Not Thinking About the Type of Calories

You probably already know that in order to lose weight, you need to restrict the number of calories you consume. But you may not have thought about what those calories actually mean. For instance, eating the same amount of vegetables in calories as a cheeseburger is not the same thing. One is good for you while the other is not (take a wild guess at which one’s which).

Both of these foods have different effects on you because your body releases insulin based on the type of calories you consume rather than the amount of them. That’s why you feel lethargic after eating unhealthy food when compared to healthy food. All calories are not equal!
