Weight Loss Tips

There are lots of simple things you can do to lose weight. The first thing is to commit to changing your lifestyle. You cannot eat cabbage for two weeks, lose 10lbs, and go back to chilly burgers daily without expecting to gain it all back and then some. Promise yourself that you weont get discrouraged. Stick with it. Make these decisions before you get started. Then do it step by step, day by day. First, start with increasing your water intake. Drink at least 64oz of water a day. Your urine should be clear, that is how you know you are drinking enough water. Hydration is key and drinking water will burn calories, increase your metabolism, clean your skin, and give you energy. Second, try to plan out your meals the day before. Eat 4-6 small meals a day. Pay attention to serving sizes. Turkey is the best meat to lose weight, maybe leave out the cheese or use skim milk cheese. Cut out fried foods or limit them to only 1 day a week. This of fast food restaurants as the devil. They want to make you fat and too tired to exercise. If you are looking to start exercising too, start by taking walks, using the stairs instead of an elevator, rescue a dog, or hire a personal trainer. Just keep in mind that it takes time to lose weight and it is a lifestyle and behavior change, not a temporary change. You shouldn't lose more than 5lbs a week. That is too much on your heart. If you are large though you might lose more than this the first few weeks, due to water weight. HOpe that helps! Good luck! I lost 45lbs 20 years ago with the help of weight watchers. I am much happier, active, and feel great!
