1. You don’t eat breakfast
你不吃早餐

According to the NWCR research, 78 percent of people who were successful at losing weight and keeping it off reported regularly eating breakfast every day of the week.

Choose foods like fresh fruit, smoothies, eggs, coffee (sans cream and sugar), tea, and whole grains.

2. You don’t weigh yourself enough
你没有经常给自己称体重

75 percent of people who maintain a healthy weight weigh themselves at least once a week. If you’re struggling to get rid of those love handles, then buy a scale and weigh yourself a few times a week. This will help you stick with your health goals and see measurable progress.
