How can I stop myself from eating so much?

wikiHow Contributor

Eat a high calorie breakfast! This will decrease your hunger for the rest of the day as well as speed up your metabolism. Make sure you drink a lot of water, and drink a glass before eating, since you will become full faster. Using smaller plates has a psychological effect which decreases the amount of food you eat. Also, try to limit the amount of sugar and empty calories you take in and eat more lean protein which will keep you full longer and less hungry.

Should I stop eating sourdough bread? Is it considered a white bread, and is it unhealthy?

wikiHow Contributor

You don't need to stop eating anything completely if you really like it; everything is okay in small doses. Sourdough isn't generally considered white bread; it's considered its own kind of bread, and some think it's healthier than plain white bread. Whole wheat bread is healthier, though.

What is a good atmosphere for a healthy lifestyle?

wikiHow Contributor

A good atmosphere for a healthy lifestyle includes being around other people that have the same drive to be healthy, not around those that encourage unhealthy behaviors. Also, maintaining a clean house (especially kitchen) will make you feel like you're more in control of your life and thus will help you lead a better life. Last but not least, remember that health is not a destination but a journey, so you must always be working towards a healthier body and life.

Is there an easy way to sleep well?

wikiHow Contributor

Yes. Just allot yourself enough time to get a good night's sleep. Stick to a regular sleep schedule as best as you can, rather than sleeping and waking up at different times from day to day. Do not exercise within 2 hours of sleeping. Do not eat large amounts of food before going to sleep. Avoid caffeine or sugary foods and drinks before sleeping. Try not to use your TV, computer, phone, tablet or any other screen shortly before sleeping. Dim your lights before you go to sleep. All of this, combined with living a healthier lifestyle all around should greatly increase your quality of sleep.
