Despite taking every possible measure to lose weight, does it happen so that those extra pounds never seem to shed themselves off your body? If yes, there might be a few habits which you follow that seem insignificant but affect your body immensely. Your health majorly depends on how you begin your day. Here are a few morning habits you need to do away with as soon as possible.
* Oversleeping
While it is a known fact that under sleeping is bad for your health, the fact that oversleeping leads to weight-gain is lesser known. More than 10 hours of sleep on a regular basis increases the Body Mass Index (BMI) of your body.
* Losing track of your weight
Studies have proven that those who tend to keep a track of their weight every morning remain conscious about their eating habits and stay fit compared to those who don’t.
* Skipping your breakfast
Skip the excuses.Wake up early so that you don’t end up running late to work or college but do not skip eating your breakfast. It is also not healthy to eat a scanty breakfast in a hurry as it does not leave your body with enough time to digest it well. Staying hungry leads your body to produce harmful acids in the body which leads to acid reflux or acidity. Ensure that your body is free of toxins in the body.
* Getting ready in the dark
Let the sunshine in! Mornings are all about breathing the fresh air and experiencing a brightly lit day. Breathing in morning oxygen is good for your body. Open your curtains and let in some fresh air. Getting ready in the dark makes you gain weight as your body doesn’t register the fact that it needs to enhance your metabolism rate until it experiences some sunlight. It is more of a psychological factor than scientific.
* You don’t make your own bed
Lastly, making your own bed plays an important role as those who do tend to develop other good habits as well It helps you spend wisely, enhances your cleanliness habits, spending habits and also pushes you to maintain your health.
