Healthy tips and tricks for the lazy ones

 Maybe you are trying to live healthily but are simply sometimes too lazy. That's perfectly ok! It doesn't mean it's impossible to stay skinny and in good shape just because you're having problems with going to the gym regularly. Luckily, there are certain healthy tricks and tips you can follow and still remain lazy! ere there

  1. Switch to smaller plates ​

This is an easy trick to deceive your brain you're eating a lot because it's much easier to fill a small plate. In this case, you won't feel like you are depriving yourself of anything and you will still manage to eat fewer calories than usual.

  2. Stay hydrated ​

 Very frequently, our brain misinterprets the feeling of thirst with the feeling of hunger. Most of us simply forget to drink enough water throughout the day and it results in eating more than we need to. Next time you think you're hungry, try drinking a glass of water and wait for 10 minutes. If it was only thirst, your stomach won't be telling you it's hungry anymore. Of course, drinking water is generally healthy for your body, so make sure you drink at least 2 liters of water a day, whether you feel thirsty or not.

  3. Keep your PH balance ​

The best way to neutralize acid in your body is to drink lemon water every day. Even though lemons are not alkaline, they have minerals high in alkaline and are also low in sugar, which will create an alkalizing effect. The acid in the lemon will also help your body get rid of the toxins and speed up your digestion. 

  4. Take the stairs, not the elevator ​

​ This is a good exercise for the lazy ones. Every time you have the chance to choose between the elevator and the stairs, choose the stairs. It will only take you a couple of minutes but you will benefit from it.

  5. Don't eat and watch TV ​

​ Try to quit the habit of sitting in front of the TV and eating. This is the easiest way to eat a lot more than you need because your brain is too involved in what's going on in front of your eyes, forgetting to let you know your stomach is full. When you're having a meal, do it at the table and focus only on that. You will end up eating much less.

  6. Carry healthy snacks ​

​ You always need to be prepared for the moment when the hunger hits unexpectedly. This is the moment when you are able to eat almost anything to ease the hunger, so you will probably reach out for fatty, sugary foods. If you always carry a healthy snack in your bag, there's no chance you will eat too many unhealthy calories.

7. Reduce carbohydrates easily ​ 

​ You don't have to go completely carbs-free. The easier option is to simply eat your sandwiches bun-less or open-face. You won't have to give up on tasty sandwiches but you will cut the intake of carbohydrates in half.

  8. Choose exercises that don't feel like exercise at all ​

Lazy people hate working out, but the truth is everybody needs to do some form of physical activity every day to stay fit and healthy. So, the best trick here is to identify an activity that won't feel like exercise to you. For example, every time you have to go somewhere nearby, don't sit in your car but walk there. If you do it at least once or twice a day for different reasons, you'll get at least one hour of physical activity without even noticing. Also, you can choose to go to longer distances by bike, like going to work, visiting friends or going to nature. High-quality bikes like the flow mountain bike or similar types will allow you to enjoy cycling and stay active while traveling to one point to another. In other words, try to find an activity that you can do at least three times a week, like dancing, playing outdoor sports with friends or playing outside with your kids, which won't have that infamous feature of actually working out.

  9. Sleep more ​

​ No better news for lazy people than the fact that getting enough sleep also means eating less! Hormone ghrelin will be in balance if you get your 7-9 hours of sleep every day, and if it isn't, you will have a strong desire to eat throughout the day. Make sure you stay away from electronic devices some 30 minutes before you go to bed to make sure you will fall asleep fast and get the quality sleep you need.

  10. Don't drink your calories ​

  An easy way to reduce the number of calories on daily basis, simply switch to water completely. Just think about it - most of other drinks are high in sugar and calories, like the mocha latte, juices and alcohol. The water is the best way to go; you should everything else from time to time, not every day.

  Final words ​

​ Even if you regard yourself as a lazy person, it's clear that it's possible to keep fit even if you are not the most active person on the planet. These tipes will certainly help you do that.
