Because its basically a supercomputer that can fit in the size of your pocket, theres no denying that a smartphone can be very useful in our daily lives. Its also made life incredibly easier and has brought so many conveniences in our life. However, too much of a good thing can be bad. And in the case of people who want to lose weight, using our phones too much can sometimes backfire and do more harm than good.

Heres how your phone may be stopping you from losing weight:

You walk slower

For most of us, our phone is our usual jog buddy. As it turns out, walking while using your phone can slow down your pace, which can impact the amount of calories you burn. So the next time you do, just put on some music and focus on the running/jogging.

It disrupts your sleep cycle

One of the most important pillars of losing weight is to get proper sleep and rest after a taxing workout. Unfortunately, smartphones have made this harder for most people since the majority of us take it to bed and use it for at least a couple hours before sleeping. In addition, too much blue light can also force our bodies to produce more stress hormones.

Distracts your from your workout

You might not realize it but the constant checking on the phone and keeping a tab on everything can also limit the time of work you can do at a gym. This can be considered as phone addiction and can be very detrimental, especially if you are following a strict routine. Not to mention, it can also give you a hunched back. Who would want that?

You eat more

Did you know that constantly being on your phone while eating can make you eat more without you noticing? As such, you should be practicing mindful eating, especially if youre trying to lose weight.

Phones make you more stressed

This is because phones can give you numbers that measure everything, stressing you more than things should.

Researchers found that mobile phones have been sending more people to emergency rooms in the U.S. over the past two decades due to injuries, like facial cuts, bruises and fractures. Pixabay
