Frozen Yogurt & Ice Cream

Many health fanatics choose to eat frozen yogurt over ice cream as it’s believed to be healthier, but this isn’t always the case. Also, when you get ice cream at a shop they usually give you 2-4 scoops or 1/2 a cup, which is way more than the recommended portion size of 1 scoop or 1/2 cup.

Granola

Granola is a breakfast staple for many people, but it’s also high in calories and fat. Store-bought versions also add lots of sugar. When eating granola, don’t fill your cereal bowl, stick to 1/3-1/4 cup.

Fruit Smoothies

These refreshing drinks are perfect on a hot summer day and they have tons of nutrients as well as lots of calories and sugar. When you order one from a shop they usually come in 20-ounces or more, which is also twice the portion size.

Cold Room

Try sleeping in a room that’s cold. Although this isn’t pleasant for some people, this can help you burn more calories throughout the whole day.

Alcohol

Cut back on your alcohol consumption. Doing this is key because the body tends to break down the alcohol first. Because of this, the calories in your meals get stored as fat.

Coffee

Drinking coffee can also boost your metabolism. The caffeine content increases the breathing and the heart rate which, in turn, stimulates the metabolism.

Phone

Turn your phone off. The blue light that comes from smartphones not only keeps you up at night but it can also slow down the metabolism. Also, exposure to this blue light right before or after eating dinner also impacts glucose metabolism.
