How do I lose weight without dieting?

You've probably asked yourself this question when you've failed yet again with a quick lightning diet like the cabbage soup diet  . The majority of Germans have already gone on a diet – but very few were able to maintain the weight afterwards. The big problem: The diet is only changed for the duration of the diet. After the kilos have tumbled, you eat normally again. The yo-yo effect often sets in and the lost kilos are back on in no time. You want to be slim forever? Then ditch a fast diet and slowly  change your diet - forever. This takes a little longer, but it's worth it. This is the only way to keep your desired weight.

Eat mindfully and lose weight at the same time

Eating something quickly on the go or reaching for a piece of cake without thinking, even though you’ve just eaten: does that sound familiar? Most of us pay little attention to food, it happens on the side. One way to lose weight without dieting is to be a little more mindful in everyday life. The topic of mindfulness is currently very popular in many areas of life. However, it is not new: Mindfulness was already practiced in Buddhism 2500 years ago. Jon Kabat-Zinn, a US molecular biologist who developed a mindfulness-based stress management program, defines mindfulness as follows: "Mindfulness means paying attention: being aware of the present moment and non-judgmental. Mindfulness is the art of being aware of live. Mindfulness means turning off the autopilot in everyday life."

When it comes to nutrition, that means not judging yourself when you really feel like eating French fries or pizza. Always asking yourself what is good for your body. Eating less according to the time of day, instead of listening to the actual feeling of hunger. 

For those who have been eating more with their heads than with their guts for years, it is not so easy to know when you are really hungry and, above all, what your body needs at that moment. Just take a few days to take a closer look at your eating habits. The following questions can be helpful:

• When do I eat?
• Why am I eating?
• What is good for me and my body? What am I not so good at?
• How does hunger feel to me?
• How do I know I'm full? Do I then continue to eat?
• Where am I with my thoughts while I eat?
