Weight Loss Tips
by Beth Scott
There are a lot of
"crash" diets out there that promise that
you'll drop a considerable amount of weight in days or a week.
I have tried a few
of these, and in my experience the weight always comes back on, just as
quickly since the weight loss tips given are
not something that will work with your body.
One thing you
don't want to do if you are actually serious about losing weight is to
follow these fad diets and their ridiculous weight loss tips.
After their
ineffectiveness has been proven time and again, people will start to
wise up to that particular diet, and will head off in search of a new
craze.
Lets be honest,
people are always searching for new weight loss tips because they want
to lose pounds and they want immediate results, but this is just
wishful thinking.
To lose weight
permanently and effectively it will be a rather slow progress, all
depending on your metabolic rate and how much you need to lose.
There are however
some proven tried and true weight loss tips for aiding in the weight
loss process, and I can make you familiar with them.
Weight
Loss Tip 1
Don't skip
breakfast. Whatever you do follow this advice, because otherwise
you are much more likely to binge later in the day.
Weight
Loss Tip 2
Don't eat
anything for at least an hour before going to bed. Your body will
be trying to digest the food you've eaten and this will cause you to
stay awake longer (think insomnia), possibly making you eat
even more if you're bored, and have nothing to do. Proper sleep is also
a factor in weight loss, believe it or not, so you want to be sure to
get those zzzzz's at night.
Weight
Loss Tip 3
Don't snack
while watching TV. It's acceptable to eat a meal while watching
television, but never is snacking at this time acceptable.
Weight
Loss Tip 4
Substitute
fruits like; bananas, watermelon, plums, peaches, and oranges for
sugary treats like; cookies and candy.
Weight
Loss Tip 5
Substitute
honey for sugar, and carob powder for chocolate in all
recipes. These taste just as good if not better when used properly.
Weight
Loss Tip 6
Eat more
vegetables. This can even be enjoyable if you have a good cookbook
like Good housekeeping's latest edition.
Weight
Loss Tip 7
Avoid
unnecessary high calorie foods. Instead of a high calorie salad
dressing for instance try cottage cheese or yogurt to improve the
salads taste and peel of the pounds.
Weight
Loss Tip 8
Exercise at
least a half hour each day for five days out of the week. Biking on
a stationery bike while reading is a great form of exercise to slim
legs.
In conclusion
there is nothing stopping you from losing weight except yourself. Get
off the "I can't do anything about my weight problem" bandwagon and
start dropping pounds today!
