Biggest Weight Loss Mistakes You Could Be Making

Having Unrealistic Expectations

This is a common weight loss mistake we're probably all guilty of - expecting to see a difference in how we look and feel after just a few days of following your diet plan. When we don’t see the results we want, it can be a whole lot easier to give up on things too. That’s why it’s important to manage your expectations when it comes to weight loss - accept that you’re not going to see results straight away, and that’s okay. Be patient and keep going!

Focusing on the Scales

While it’s great to track your progress, it can be very easy to get a little too preoccupied with the number on the scales. Put the scales out of sight and only get them out once a week when to track your weight. And make sure you put them away again! Remember, your clothing and measurements are the best indicators when it comes to weight loss!

Protein and Fibre Intake Too Low

Not getting enough protein and fibre is another common weight loss mistake. That's because both protein and fibre play important roles in weight loss. We know that protein has a number of benefits in aiding weight loss, such as increased feelings of satiety, and fibre has a great deal of benefits that go beyond just digestive health! We digest fibre more slowly, which means we tend to feel fuller quicker, and for longer too. Both good news if you’re trying to lose weight! To help you out, our exante meal replacements are designed to be rich in protein and fibre, ensuring you’re feeling fuller for longer.
