If you need more help, I now have a PDF eBook series available that an eBook version of the diet and weight loss tips, which includes follow. Be sure to download my weight loss eBook before you scoot away. Following these tips will be on your computer or your iPhone as a regular reminder, as they serve to maintain your personal health.
Dietary control and exercise.
It's true what they say all you have to do is look at what you eat and expend more energy than you consume. It really is that simple. You can quit reading this list now you now know everything you need to know and do not need to over $ 500 for the privilege of telling me to shell out you the secret of losing weight. You do not need to read a 4,000 page book, you do not have to buy a tape series, you do not stay up watching late night infomercials to understand this basic premise. It is 100% true.
Change your lifestyle.
When you call that's a diet, then you will all the weight back to win in a few months of losing it. Diets do not work. Diets are temporary. If you change your eating habits, but you're changing your habits. And sit on the road to long term / continued success and weight maintenance Not always, tell me, you're on a diet ever. I speak from experience, here a reformed low Carber. Worked well for a while, but ultimately failed because my life has not changed (permanently).
Join an online support group.
In my case, I have my own Fat Blasters. It is important that you do not feel alone, and reaching out to friends (new or old) is typically a smart move. I just listened to Pet Trainer, but do not know about when I started the road to weight loss. You need to know that others are out there for moral support they know things that you could not possibly know, and they've probably been in your shoes at some point in the past. Share stories, laughter, tears, successes and failures share. There are thousands of communities are looking to keep it until you fit for you.
Take before and after photos.
I know it sucks to see yourself as a chunky monkey. However there is no easier way to illustrate your progress. The after photos are far more fun to capture and share admittedly. Find yourself on Flickr! It's good to see yourself as others see you. Do you like how you look? In many ways helped me Flickr losing weight.
Hire a substitute teacher.
Or without thinking first not for the brands you know and love immediately reached. Eggs are good for you, but consider using egg substitutes instead. There are countless lower alternatives for you to try. If anything does not taste good, by all means a better substitute or eat less of the original. In some cases, the substitute may be worse for you than the regular version of the product. The good news is, healthier choices are silently replacing their normal counterparts and they taste just as nice.
Start reading labels.
I know it sucks, but you have to do it and there is no way to avoid this tip. If you do not know what you put in your mouth, you're flying blind. Please assume not, either triple check the ingredients list and serving sizes. You must leave for this, no one else will be able to lose the weight or do the math for you. It's not that complicated a task, but it will require effort. If nothing else, just pay attention to the calories.
What's so funny about bovines?
If you want cheese, you must buy the Laughing Cow brand, and keep several of the suckers in stock at all times. The individually wrapped wedges make for excellent snacks, and are wonderful when melted over just about anything edible. I would be careful, straight-up American cheese, though it's oil, but not necessarily as good for you as a slice of cheddar would be. I have something as calorie light and filling as Laughing Cow to find.
Tell your family.
You're not going to lose the weight alone, even if you ARE alone in losing the weight. If you have a family at home to talk to not first uninterruptedly. Let them know what you are, and that you want (and need) their support. If you do not let them know you're the risk of them inadvertently sabotaging your efforts. You want them to help you get to your goal. You want them to share in your happiness when you've made it to a particular brand. Who knows? Maybe some of your new habits rub off on them and they become healthier people too?
To go public.
I would not admit that I had screwed up, but admitting the problem in public was the first step on the way to ultimate success. I was now the responsibility for my actions and all my friends knew what I was doing. There was no turning back, otherwise I would risk damaging be my integrity. I did not want to disappoint the people who read me on a regular or semi regular basis. Plus it's an easy way to find out which of your friends through the process before gone. And glean tips from their own experiences Then other friends might be inspired to do the same thing you are doing when they are to see that you made the first step.
Identify your practice.
No exercise was the same. You might want to run, run Sun Maybe you want to go jogging so jog. You might want to stationary bikes, so bike stationary. Find that works best for you that is not too much of a task for you to do regularly throughout the week. Not choose a routine that you do not like or you will not want to do it, and you certainly will not stick with it for a long time. I would not recommend buying into this whole no pain, no gain mantra. I've lost weight without hurting myself and you can probably.
Become a Gazelle.
You've probably seen Tony Little on TV, selling his Gazelle glider a low impact exercise machine. I can tell you: it works. It's easy on my legs and really gives me a workout when I apply myself on it. Some people say it's awkward to use, but I love mine and would recommend any other home exercise equipment at this point. Then again I'm a wimpy geek who only wants to burn calories.
Zone.
There is a reason why people exercise to their favorite music listening to external stimulus takes your mind off of the physical activity. That's the secret to making exercise time fly. If you are concentrating on what your body is doing, the session will drag on, what seems like day. Buy a portable music player, or situate yourself in front of a television.
Never count on live programming.
It is important to stimulate your mind while you exercise your body in other ways. But never on what the TV or the radio leave at the time. Instead of zoning out, you'll get levels between channels and that goes back to the time drag as much as it would if you do not, keeping your mind busy in the first place. Live is a very bad idea. Go with pre recorded programming or go without.
Video games helped me to lose weight.
I can keep to do for some hard. my balance on the Gazelle. As such I plugged an Xbox 360 into the TV and started to play it while I was working. Immediately I found that I sweat more when I just passively watching TV, when I was The reason for running on a single word: adrenalin. Now the only way I am able to sweat when I play a quick game on the game console. Yes even game genre is important, avoid distractions that require long pauses between tasks. Racing games (like Burnout) have worked very well for me. The more mindless the game, the better your burn, the faster the training session will go.
Set realistic goals.
You can lose 50 pounds in a week if you work out 12 hours a day and eat nothing but celery but not if you are human. Slow and steady wins the race. Do not bite off more than you can chew literally. Make small goals on the way to the bigger goal. Can reach at the end you will have more.
Avoid trans fats and high fructose corn syrup.
I offer this suggestion for a few reasons. First they are not good for you anyway. Second, you'll eliminate a lot of the bad foods outright no questions asked. You must become more selective of what you eat by avoiding these two nasty ingredients the more food than you probably care to know.
Not always to listen to your partner.
I've already suggested that you tell your family but sometimes members of your family are trying to be to try to lose weight dissuade. It's simple: you can not want you to succeed where they have failed, whether consciously or unconsciously. Their loss is not always their gain. Watch out for statements such as . Enough You've lost weight" or fact of the matter is, if you do not like the way you are then you are going to have a little I like you the way you are. to do about it, no matter what anyone says. They still love you, even though.
Do not compare yourself to others.
Every body is different. It is obvious that the weight to lose any different. Even if you do exactly the same things I do, you will not lose weight at the same speed. The key is in finding your triggers. Keep your goal in sight, and do what you need to have to achieve this goal. When you start looking at someone else's habits, you are only going to get discouraged and without notice that it is physically impossible to stop anyone but yourself.
Women are not men.
It has been proven that men can lose weight faster than women, probably because of our physiological makeup women are more fat than men, because they are the birth sex. This is not to make sexist statement it's pretty much the truth. As such women should expect to set separate goals than males especially if you lose weight together, working side by side.
Take a magic pill.
Nonsense There is no such thing as a magic pill. Do not fall prey to the commercial hype of the last fat burning drugs. If you read or listen closely, you'll see that every single one of these things is effective when the proper diet and exercise which they also say in their advertising combined. The side effects of these drugs are usually worse than your additional weight anyway.
Vitamins are good for you.
If you plan any pills to take, let them natural supplements like Essential Fatty Acids or multivitamins be. Be careful not to overdo it, but especially with herbal remedies. Too much of anything is a bad thing. You can consult a nutritionist, but always buy on your own and keep these supplements to a minimum. Also remember that certain vitamins not good without specific minerals.
Deck your desktop.
In the beginning, some of my friends sent me complicated spreadsheets to chart progress. Not for me, I'm the kind of guy that likes under the easy way As such I have scoured the Internet for the best desktop tool and remembered CalorieKing. You will not find anything easier to use. Trust me this is the only one that I can keep track of everything I eat to keep and consume without controversy. While the statistic-addicts love CalorieKing for its thoroughness, the program was really designed with non geeks. The CalorieKing Web site and service are good on their own, but the downloadable client is what you really want to get. Pay the registration fee, man how much is your health worth?
Identify your ideal weight.
If you are 5'5 "with a certain build, there is an ideal weight that fits your body type to find. And make that your goal and if you do not know what that might be, you're looking for on the Web. a calculator (though results and calculations will vary by a small margin). Now you have to shoot a weight goal.
Consider the source.
I will make a gross generalization here, but why should I trust an overweight doctor or nutritionist, me proper advice on weight loss? Do as I say and not as I is not a maxim I'm willing to accept from anyone who are qualified to tell me what you would do something. Talk to people who are doing it or who have done it and been successful. You do not have to mirror their regimen, but at least you get some help from someone who is actually there. Or as in the Christmas episode of Two and a Half Men, people who live in fat asses should not throw waffles.
Ignore Ronald McDonald.
You do not have to eliminate fast food completely, but you should avoid it at all costs. Most of it is nasty, bad stuff anyway, if you'd even go so far as to call it food. If you are looking for convenience, find a convenient meal source. It would also most of what they serve as food should not be eating. There is a huge difference as far as your body is concerned. Your blood does not taste buds, I need to remind you?
Scale up If your measurement tool sucks, upgrade.
If it is analog throw it. I have talked to many geeks about their choice in scales and most of them myself included recommend something in the Tanita family. They are high quality, robust and precise devices. Make sure your scale on a hard surface, too as carpet foundations not for accurate weight measurements.
Do not see your weight.
Some people say that you should not weigh yourself more than once a week. I was much happier charting my progress every day. No matter what you weigh at the same time need, at any time. For me the 10:00 every morning or somewhere around is. If you decide to weigh every day, understand that your weight will fluctuate by one or two pounds and that you should only keep a serious eye on the longer trends.
A pound a week.
If you are not losing at least a pound a week on your chosen weight loss regimen, you are stalled, or completed. You may need to push yourself even harder or in some cases can be a little bit while your body plays catch up. If you lose more than a pound a week, then you will do better than average. Expected to lose five pounds a week is just not realistic though.
Maintain your priorities.
Sure your sandwich would taste amazing with an extra tablespoon of mayonnaise but do you really need? Rather it is important that you reach your weight loss goal quicker or have this sandwich taste marginally better? What will happen the next time you are faced with this decision will you cave again? It is a slippery slope, do not lose sight of what the most important to you.
All weight is not the same.
Muscle weighs more than fat, but the last thing you want is to lose muscle For this reason alone it is important to have a regular exercise routine somewhere in your schedule. Without exercise, your body is going to burn through muscle first and you will be filed unbalanced as you were from the start. You want to burn your body fat not muscle. You want to lose weight, but you want fat to lose weight not muscle mass.
Counteraction Rainy Day principle.
If you reduce your calories without necessarily increasing your physical activity is going to crash your body. It will say: I better store these calories as fat because I did not get enough of them and I will not die.Burn When you exercise, you put your body process instead Save.
Do not overdo it.
If you change something in your lifestyle, you are likely to see results but there is a law of diminishing returns in the game. You can train for an extra hour per day for a week and still lose the same amount as if you had exercised only half as much. Give your body time to adjust do not push yourself too hard, or you're just going, your energy on something that is not necessarily going to get you to spend immediate and direct benefit. This of course only for those of you to lose fat not for those who are training for a triathlon.
Patterns are good.
Once you've found your workout groove, do your best to stick with it. Exercise no less than three times a week for 40 to 60 minutes, but do not feel, do the need it more than five times over a period of seven days. Your body will appreciate it probably burn off know more in the morning, but if you need to relieve stress in the evening you are not afraid to adjust your workout schedule accordingly. Plan for building and storage for other areas of your life as important.
Noise sleep.
To be an efficient fat-burning machine requires, your body at least eight hours of sleep per night. If you think you're doing yourself a favor by sleeping less, you're mistaken. Give your body time to rest, both mentally and physically. Sleep is very, very important if only for mental alertness for the following day. If you feel tired, it is likely that your body the opportunity to say: "Shut your eyes, stupid"
Note that the fork is not a shovel.
I eat fast, I swear, I can not help myself. Even though I'm not hungry, I want to shovel everything into my mouth. In less than a minute But my brain does not know that my stomach is full until 20 minutes after it actually is. As such I could stuff myself silly before realizing I did not need as much as I consume. Try eating half of what's on your plate, wait ten minutes and then continue to eat if you are still hungry. You never want to feel full ever. That's when you know you've eaten too much. If you want a real hunger-stopper, try an Omega 3 and omega 6 supplements 20 minutes before a meal.
Become your own snack fairy.
It's okay to snack between meals, really. Small meals throughout the day are enough to keep you satisfied, as much like the feeling of fullness, you'll never feel hungry. Tell your body that get regular therapy with calories. Plus, if you starve yourself for the regular meals, you are likely to eat more before your brain says to stop mouth. Remember, breakfast, lunch and dinner are social constructs at their core.
I love the oil companies.
Just like your car needs high quality oil, so too does your body. Not all oils are created equal, though highly competitive which has it better for you than others. I personally love a good olive oil it is 100% natural and is rich in omega 9 fatty acids. Enova is another that we have found to work quite well in our lifestyle at home. Choose your oil wisely, though your weight loss goal should be more than just cosmetic. It is a good rule of thumb when it comes to food: the more natural something is the better it is for you.
Fat is where it's at.
If you think you can lose weight and keep it off by avoiding all fats, you're sadly mistaken. In fact if you think to go that low fat diet is the only way one could just as well quit now. Your body and your brain needs fat to survive! This is why the scientists they call essential fatty acids 9 omegas 3, 6, and These fats have been stripped from many supermarket shelf items and it is your responsibility to put fat back into your diet plan. Not to avoid eating fat, embrace equally.
Bring balance to the force.
When the same foods over and over eat, you'll get bored unless they're foods you really want really. Feel free to change it up keep your tongue happy. Balancing carbohydrates with proteins and fats though. If you have more of one nutrient for one meal, try more of another nutrient for the next. And for heaven's sake not only in the diet buy the shop. You can still likely eat the same things you've always eaten, just not so much of them at any given time.
Know your daily calorie limit.
When I was in the process of losing weight, it was suggested that I stay under 1700 calories a day. Knowing that number was half the battle. I could do whatever I wanted to eat all day, as long as I stay at or below this number. While I could not track 100% of the items I ate, I was able to make intake estimates and adjust my schedule and ration my remaining calories accordingly. As long as you hit at or below this calorie level for your plan to stay in this sense they are extreme freedom. If you do not know how much you actually take in, is how do we know how much you really on? Sounds redundant, but it's a situation that many dieters are which is why they do not!
Fiber well.
If you start to lose fat, you are likely to get clogged. Yes, it happens more often than we care to admit or shares. You should have a good amount of fiber every day anyway. Fiber is very important for your health and your weight loss goals. Try the Metamucil snack wafers for a quick fiber infusion. Then, magnesium citrate for Stuck moments in which you find yourself from time to time. Keep a bottle or two of that plan in your refrigerator for storage and not going anywhere for 24 hours after taking a dose trust me.
Walk the walk.
You burn calories when you walk, did you know that? Surely you do not expend as much energy as you when you run, but you burn it nonetheless. Consider picking up a good pedometer, if only to gauge how. Many steps in the average day According to others, the Omron HJ112 Premium Pedometer is to beat the it. If nothing else, is to know how many steps you give on the average day you a better idea as to your regular activity you around the house and or office. Plus, you can count those steps as calorie deficits in certain programs like CalorieKing.
Train wrecks will happen.
One of these nights will eat you go out with friends and your weight in steak likely blowing any kind of progress you had made for that day. Instead of repeating the overindulgence, just put yourself back on track the next day. You are to mess up every now and then allowed, as long as you do not have a habit of consuming an excessive amount of food. Right the dining injustice immediately. You'll be okay. You'll be fine. Just do not do it again. And again. And again. And again.
Satisfy cravings with extreme prejudice.
If you are hungry for something to eat it. Do not deny yourself the simple pleasures. If it is possible to eat only half of what you want. Is your craving satisfied, or are you addicted to the taste? Lose weight should not be torture for everyone. One has to wonder: Is it important for me to eat this whole case Fudgesicles, or my brother's wedding to look good? Only you have the answer to this question, and if you ignore logic, you will hurt yourself in the long run. Just take a nibble or two, I will not say a soul.
Water you waiting for?
If you are not drinking enough water, your body will let you know. Thirst is an amazing sensation be deterred. If you're not hydrated, your body will not function at peak levels. Most of your body happens to water by the way. If you're worried about water weight remember that you probably retain more water when you are not giving your body enough of it in the first place. Moreover what these workouts is to help with every other morning. I'm not going to dictate how many glasses you should drink, though as this will vary from person to person.
Join the club soda.
Like most people, I love carbonated beverages. But unlike most people, I love unflavored carbonated beverages and if your tongue is attune to sugary drinks, you're also the kind of person that club soda tastes salty even if it contains no sodium believes. Make the transition to an unflavored drink sooner rather than later. If you need help on the way, lemons and limes can be your best friends. If you are going to have a little more to drink than water, at least ensure that it does not impede the progress. If you have a sugary soda drinkers, they fall out of your daily routine will help you at all ~ are 5 or more pounds in a week WITHOUT doing anything else.
Sugar is evil that tastes good.
You probably do not want to hear, but sugar is a bad thing. The more refined it comes, the more your body will react negatively to it. sugar is in everything, everything, everything. If it's sweet, it has sugar. There are all kinds of sugars are, and all of them will eventually be absorbed by the body. It's a good bet that the sugar in an apple better for you than the sugar in a candy bar though. If you are addicted to sugar, this will be a horrible hurdle to overcome.
Sugar substitutes are just as bad as sugar itself.
Do you really think your body knows how to do something that has been around man? Seriously. These chemically adjusted products do not occur in the wild, there are no Splenda trees in warmer climates nor are there NutraSweet plants in the Arctic. In some cases may actually increase under sugar substitutes in your levels of hunger! Let us not forget about all the health issues that could arise from these unnatural substances. If you are given the choice, it is almost better. With something that your body knows how to go deal with real, unprocessed sugar No, it is much safer and healthier is to stay away from blue, pink and yellow packets entirely. Do a Web search for Artificial sweeteners may damage diet efforts. Then sit there and tell me they're okay? No way.
White bread can not jump.
Did you know that white bread is not good for you? Oh, it's true just ask any diabetic. Research has shown that people who are more refined products like white bread eat are more likely to have belly fat. Why? It is very simple: your body is not getting what he needs. The food industry is not the health industry, okay? You can not trust that they have your best interests at heart despite all their marketing efforts. If you want the taste of white bread, please eat whole wheat bread instead of white bread? Sara lee makes a wonderful loaf, as I can personally attest even though I like rye more than white or wheat. Repeat after me: whole grain white bread, whole wheat bread.
Well if your weight loss goals are achieved, what do you do to keep the fat at bay? The worst thing you can do is something I've done countless times over: lazy. I've conveniently forgotten about all of the above rules a few times and I am back in the same situation I do not want to be in ever again. While I do not have to be as careful as I was during the weight loss, I'm still measuring myself and recording my daily activities. This may turn into a weekly weigh fast enough.
