use a small plate or bowl for all your meals. If you compare our regular plates that we buy in stores now to the ones our grandparents used, you find out that theirs were about the size of our salad plates! If you load up your plate on a "modern" plate, you consume way too many calories. Our family switched to salad plates, and we all have lost weight just by moderation.
knowing that diets are a fad, i truly believe changing a couple of small things at a time is effective an DOABLE! Doable is the most important. 2 simple things are move more- park farther away, use the stairs,walk the dog to the bus stop instead of driving(killing 2 birds). Also no boxed food, use fresh ingredients with more grains instead of flour. totally doable.
Run, eat less, diet pills, dont drink alot of water cause your gain water weight.Just exercise and watch what you eat bread had lots of carbs, so stay away from that.
NO SODA! Or at least very little. Lots of water! Measure your portions. Watch your fat intake as well as the salt. Avoid white bread and sugar if you can. Whole wheat bread is much better. Veggies, salad, lean meat, chicken, fish. Exercise, even if it's just walking 30 minutes everyday.
I've lost 22 pounds since the middle of July doing this. Just cutting out the soda the first week dropped 5 pounds.
I've been on a weight loss program for about four years. I've lost about 30 lbs. I started by going on a diabetic diet: no more than 60 gm carbohydrate per meal with two 15 carb snacks a day. Drink a lot of water. Cut back on salt and fat. Train yourself to like vegetables and fruit. Increase whole grains. Treat yourself occaisionally, but then get right back on track. It works.
There are only two ways to do this and you should do them together: eat better (less of fattening foods, more of healthier foods) and become more active. If you go online to Prevention magazine, they have some good suggestions and they are free. Also, there are good ideas on lots of websites like the South Beach site, also free. If you don't lose some weight doing this for 4 months, get a checkup. You may have an underactive thyroid or some other easy-to-correct condition. Prevention also said that some people don't improve when they do exercises because they do them improperly--don't suck in stomach or stand up straight. Lots of good help out there.
STOP EATING junk food. Get moving, do some exercise. Eat healthy. Have a salad instead of Potato chips with your meal. Drink green tea with your breakfast.
Good for you for wanting to lose some weight. Now the question is how much weight do you want to lose? You have to realize that if you want to lose a lot of weight that it is going to take a long time to do so. You have to really be willing to do it and be patient. You can start by changing your eating habits by cutting out all of the snacks that are processed, like chips, cookies, etc. Go for fruit, raw veggies, popcorn and pretzels instead for a snack. You can have a special treat like some ice cream once in a while like maybe once a week, just don't overdo the amount. Just paying better attention to what you eat will really make a difference. Add some exercise like walking a half hour every day to start and you should start to see a difference in your body in about a month.
there is only one thing that works. reduce your caloric intake PERMANENTLY to less than you burn. Exercise alone can never do it. Fad diets are unsustainable. I know it's easy to say and hard to do, must YOU must find the will to make changes in your life, no one else can do it for you. I know several folks who paid big bucks for LAP and gastric bypass procedures. All but 2 are overweight again. YOU must CHANGE your lifestyle to eliminate overeating.
WEIGHT WACHERS WORKET WOUNDERS FOR ME BUT I HAVE ALL WATS USED WEIGHT WATCHER AND IT HAS DONE WELL BUT ALL SO IF YOU JUSTR WATCH WHAT YOU EAT YOU SHOULD DO FINE
