Working shift work is hard – no question. But if you’re working shift work and trying to lose weight, then it can be even harder.
Because not only do shift workers have to work crazy hours, they also have to eat at irregular times as well.
And considering our digestive systems slow right down during the night when we should be sleeping – weight gain amongst shift workers is certainly a common place.
You’re also more likely to eat high processed, sugary foods, along with a vast array of high-caffeinated energy drinks to help keep you awake.
So how can you break away from this bad eating cycle?
Well it’s about taking responsibility for your health and being aware of the toxic food that you are putting into your mouth every single day.
You cannot expect to feel vibrant and healthy if you’re continually feeding your body processed foods . They cause havoc on your digestive system not only causing you to gain weight, but they also make you feel even more tired and lethargic than you already are.
But if your diet consists of whole foods – that is, foods that have undergone little on no processing, then your body will eventually discard the excess weight. You see weight loss is actually quite easy – if you stop eating junk.
It really is that simple.
So you may not have complete control over when you eat, but you certainly have complete control over what you eat.
It’s time to give up the soft drinks, crisps, lollies and fries. It’s not about depriving yourself of these foods – it’s about replacing them with good healthy food that will not only energize you – but keep the scales under control as well.
Hey. I notice you also have a blog related to sleeping, and sleep products. It’s a very interesting subject, and that i actually am in the same niche. I’ve been writing about sleep number beds reviews, anti snoring, restless leg syndrome, and other sleep related topics. It’s nice to see another person also writing about simliar subjects!
