9 Tips For Easy Weight Loss

Post by journeyoflife7 »

1) Fruits And Vegtables

Fruits and vegetables are very healthy for you. They have a lot of fiber and antioxidants. In addition to this, eating raw fruits and vegetables will make you feel fuller, faster! The amounts of calories that fruit and vegetables have are really low. So be sure to eat plenty of them!

2) Eat In Proportions

Never overfill yourself. Eat until you are satisfied but do not overeat. Remember, you can always pack food up and save it for later. Remember this tip when you got out to eat at a restaurant or fast food!

3) Frequency

Instead of three big meals a day, eat less but more frequently. Doing so will keep your blood sugar levels in check. It will help avoid a calorie overload. Try to eat 5-6 small meals in a day.

4) Better Choices

Avoid fast food and processed food, they have more sodium and fat. You can lose weight just by eating home cooked meals.

5) Be Consistent

Do not jump into eating healthy right away. Allow yourself time to eat some of the foods you really like. A consistent change will give you more hope than a quick change and failure. A slow progression will give you faith about your overall progress.

6) Understand Food Nutrition

Fat free claims on products do not necessarily mean that the product is low in calories. Read the nutrition facts on the label to avoid foods that are high in sugar and fat. Do not be fooled by misleading labels that can be put on any product.

7) Water

Try to drink 8 glasses of water a day. It helps to avoid pop,coffee, and anything else loaded with sugar.

8) Exercise

Exercise for 30 min – 60 minutes each day to burn off calories. This is one great way to lose a lot of body fat.

9) Write

Keep your progress in a journal. Write where you are and where you want to be. Tracking your progress on paper will help you focus on you dream. Visually seeing your progress will keep your motivation high!

(That's not entirely true. There are a lot of Calories in things like Yam, Watermelon, (portion size depending), Bananas, (Large and medium sized), Apples, Plums, (goodly sized portion, not one), Broccoli, Potatos, (Red Sweet and White) and possibly others.)

There are many tips and techniques to loss weight or to burn fat from your body. But the best and easy to way to loss weight is regularly swimming, jogging and morning walk. Also, you will need a weight loss exercise routine if you want to lose weight in the smartest and healthiest way. Diet alone can help you lose weight, but the eating plan will have to be so restrictive and limited that many people end up giving up and gaining back any weight that they may have lost.

Couldn't agree with you more about these tips. Especially, #2. Many of us are members of the "clean the plate" where we feel that it is good manners to eat all the food on your plate. I can't stress the importance of eating until your satisfied. The best way to is only put small portions on your plate at a time. If you think that you may need a little then head back to add some more to your plate.

It's also important to know that you WILL have a bigger appetite when you increase your activity level. You are reving up your metabolism and creating larger muscles that need more fuel. The key is to make smart choices and keep your calories within the range of your needs. this will keep you body on track for weightloss and also keep off any of those hunger pangs.
