WEIGHT LOSS TIPS:

Drink at least 8 - 8oz glasses of water daily.  We have all heard
this before, but did you know why it is important in helping you
lose weight ?  Water will raise your metabolism.  It will also rid
your body of toxins & help you "flush" out the fat. 

Can't stand the taste of plain water ?  Add a slice of lemon or
lime to a glass of filtered ice cold water.  It is delicious and
refreshing.    Sometimes when you think you are hungry, you
are actually thirsty.  Drinking a glass of water and waiting 10
minutes when you are dying for a snack will usually do the
trick.  If you still feel you are hungry, then you need to eat.

Do not starve yourself.  Moderation is the key.  Binge dieting is
very dangerous.  Start listening to your body.  Take the time to
chew all of your food & enjoy it.  Thin people enjoy their food and
take their time to taste every bite.  When you eat more slowly,
and control your portions - you can eat pretty much whatever
you want.  Moderation is the key.  Next time you want that rich
dessert, go ahead and treat yourself, but take 1/2 a slice & take
the time to enjoy it.  Pretty soon you will see a difference in the
way you look at the food you eat.  Remember, you are eating to
give your body nutrition, and it should be an enjoyable
experience as well!!

Don't be a slave to food.  Enjoy your food.  Cut your portions in
half.  Eat slowly & savor every bite.  When you are finished, sip
on a glass of water for 10 minutes.  If you are still hungry go
ahead & eat some more, but again don't take more than you are
actually hungry for.  Don't feel that you have to finish every bite,
just because there are people starving in the world.  You will see
a change in your weight and appearance.  The better you feel
about the food you eat, the less likely you will be to binge out.

Eat more natural Foods.  The more natural a food is, the more
work your body has to do to digest this food.  Most Fast Food is
already processed.  Processed food means that your body will
not have to work to digest the food meaning, that those calories
will more quickly be turned into fat.  This is one of the key reasons
that Whole Grain Flour is better than White Flour.  The same goes
for Brown Rice vs. White Rice.  Soy Milk and Rice Milk are much
healthier for you than Cow's Milk is.  If you click on the link for
Cow's Milk, you can read an article about why this is not healthy
for you.  I came to a plateau in my weight loss at one point.  We
had some really awesome coupons for Soy Milk, so I stocked up. 
When I made the switch to soy milk, I dropped 10 lbs. in less than
2 weeks.  I have a friend who could not tolerate soy.  She
switched to Rice Milk, and noticed the lbs just melt away as
well.

Start reading the labels on the foods you buy.  If your food
contains chemicals that you cannot even pronounce then
chances are it is loaded with preservatives and chemicals that
are not very healthy for you.  Take the time to cook fresh food,
even if it means using the crock-pot.  The fresher your food, the
more healthy it will be for you.  If your body is not getting the
proper nutrition it needs, then you will feel hungry even when
you have eaten a full mood.  Those cravings are telling you that
your body is not getting the nutrition it needs to function properly.

 

Make Healthier Substitutes.  When you are making desserts like
brownies or cakes that call for oil in the recipe, substitute it for all
natural unsweetened apple sauce for a fat free version.  For Low Carb
Diets, substitute Sugar for Splenda, and replace the white flour in the
recipe  with Soy Flour or Almond Flour.  You can still enjoy these treats
without all of the guilt, while giving your body the nutrition it is craving
for.  That is why you get those cravings in the first place, and why you
need to stop starving yourself, and give your body the nutrition it needs.

Start taking a multi-vitamin.  This will assist you in getting all of
the nutrition your body needs.  When your body is lacking in
nutrition, it will bring on cravings for foods you will end up over
eating.

Another important key to changing your metabolism and burning
fat is by adding some form of exercise.  Don't we all know of a thin
 person who has a nervous habit like twiddling their thumbs or
tapping their foot ?  Just that little bit of movement burns off tons
of calories over the course of a day.  I am not suggesting you take up
 one of these habits, but just moving & keeping busy will keep you
 much healthier, and you don't have to workout for 3 hours a day to
 receive benefits from exercise. 

An easy way to begin an exercise routine is to start moderately,
and build up.  If you can only handle walking, then park your car a
few stalls further every time you go to the store or to work.  Each
day park one stall further away from the door.  In no time at all
you will be able to park at the end of the parking lot, and add more
walking into your routine.  If at any time you feel like you are short
of breath, then park in the stall you feel you can comfortably park at
without running out of breath, until you can move to the next stall
further away.

This concept applies to all exercise.  If you can handle 5 sit-ups a
day, then the next day build up to 6 sit-ups & so on.

Find an exercise that you will stick with.  If you like swimming,
then take a water aerobics class.  A lot of YWCA's have
inexpensive programs you can join.  The key is to find something
you will stick with and not become bored with or that will leave
you gasping for air.  You should be able to talk normally while
doing as much activity as you can handle for the level you are
at.

Change your exercise routine regularly, so you don't get bored. 
You will get the added benefit of working different muscles.  You
should not work the same muscles 7 days a week.  You need to
take at least one day off a week to let the muscles repair themselves.
An exercise will continue to give the muscles you worked out benefit
for 48 hours.  This is why a lot of weight lifters will alternate back and
forth which groups of muscles they will work out.

It will take at least 3 weeks to a month before you start to see any
changes in your body, but added activity will help you to lose weight
much faster, as well as burn off the most stubborn fat.

Any added activity will help you burn off energy.  Start off slow,
and build up.  People who work out get the added benefit of endorphins
that are released.  Endorphins help fight off depression as well as help
you get a better nights sleep.  You just can't lose, but you have to start
somewhere.  You Can Do It !!
