Eat less calories, do more exercise. QED.(quod erat demonstrandum)
I don t believe there are any bad foods - it all depends on how much of them you eat and getting a good balance of carbs, proteins,nutrients, vitamins and minerals to stay healthy.If you lose weight too quickly you will not be able to keep it off and are more likely to put it all back on again, plus some.It is better to lose weight in a healthy, natural way.By simply making some changes to your diet you can lose weight easily.Eat little and often to boost your metabolism which helps to burn the fat.Eat plenty of fruits and veggies - they provide essential vitamins and nutrients and help you feel full for longer.Drink at least 8 glasses of water to help flush out all the toxins - it also makes your skin look and feel so much softer - a great bonus!Choose low fat and/or low cal options but be careful of the sugar content in products.Eat less and do more activity.
The theory of body weight is simple. If you eat more calories that your body needs you store the calories as fat. If you eat less than you need, your body uses stored fat and you lose weight.You can increase the calories your body needs by taking more exercise.As far as weight loss goes, it doesn t matter what form the calories come in. Healthy eating is something different altogether- the adult human body needs vitamins and minerals, protein, fibre and carbohydrates (very little fat) We know people are healthier if they eat non-refined food, low sugar, low fat diets, lots of fruit and vegtables... BUT losing weight still depends on eating less calories than your body needs.
Here s what has worked for me. I stopped keeping junk food snacks in my house so i am not so tempted to nibble. Now I keep healthier choices like fresh fruit, vegetables, and fat free yogurt and cottage cheese. I wait until my body tells me it is hungry before I eat. Sometimes this means sort of skipping meals sometimes. I do still eat, but I wait until later when I am hungry instead of eating just because it is time to eat . I try to eat more slowly too. Since I spend less money on junk food I spend it on higher quality food. For example fillet mignon is a really good lean cut and I can afford it now since I drink water instead of soda and don t eat potato chips. I eat mostly fish and chicken. I trim the fat off of beef and pork when I do eat it and prefer to broil it instead of frying. When I do need a little oil for cooking I use olive oil. I buy bottled water by the case and keep single serving packets (Crystal Light is one brand) around so it still has flavor. If I really want some ice cream or chocolate I go get some, but I walk to the store and get the smallest package possible so I can eat the whole thing if I want. This keeps me from feeling guilty or deprived. For a while I had a gym membership and that was really helpful. My boyfriend and I went together and it helped me on days I really didn t feel motivated. Anyone can be your workout partner so find any friend who wants to loose weight or just get more healthy and go get signed up together. I know going to the gym can be intimidating at first, but most of the other people there are actually there for the same reasons you are. I was a little suprised how few muscled up men and buff babes were there. Once I got in the habit of going it wasn t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. Since I moved I don t have a gym here yet, so I just walk as much as I can and always take the stairs. I hope this helps you. I have already lost over 50 pounds from all of this and have been keeping it off, even without my gym membership now.

Drink a cup of coffee or tea (black tea, green tea or medicinal plants tea). Chose only one fruit from each list, only one protein aliment and one with carbohydrates.

A pound of fat is worth 3500 calories. Use this calorie calculatorhttp://walking.about.com/cs/calories/l/b��to determin how many calories you should have a day. Cut those calories by 500 a day and your body will burn 1 pound a week.Dont go under 1000 calories a day or your body will go into starvation mode and keep everything. You also wont be getting the nutrients that you need.You ve got to cut out sugar along with counting calores. The body burns sugar bofore it burns fat. This is why people go on diets, watch what they eat and don t loose weight. They still have that sugar in them that the body burns instead of fat.It s almost impossible to cut out all sugar, but keep an eye on what your eating.My rule of thumb is...Eat a low calorie, low sugar meal or snack every 2 hours to keep the motabilism burning fat. I have lost 40 pounds in 5 months.I just saw someone mention Weight Watchers. It is a good program. The most important thing they teach you is what to eat and what not to. After you loose the weight, you still have to know how to eat health and weight watchers is good for that.Good luck
The word diet is depressing because none of like to be restricted from things we enjoy. Diet relates to punishment. So, I think the best thing is to first remove the word diet from your agenda. Next, eat anything you care to but simply eat half of what you normally eat. Eat at regular intervals and when you are in the mood to snack, substitute that urge with some sit ups or push ups and then a glass of water. Make it fun. Good Luck
Actually, you don t need to diet in fact if you want to lose weight, I discovered this at the web resource in the box below, they have a lot of tips and tricks, I worked off 10 pounds by following their techniques.
Eat when you are hungry, stop when you are fullDrink plenty of waterReplace bad snacks with good snacks i.e. fruit / yoghurts etc.Don t deny yourself little treats (as long as they are little)Run / Swim / Walk / Workout DVD - 3 x a week minDon t fad diet just change your lifestyle for good and you will see and keep the results.
I lost 40 pounds with Weight Watchers. It s been a year and I ve been able to keep it off. I really like this program because they teach you how to maintain a healthy lifestyle, its not just a short-term diet. Good luck with your weight loss!
What I am doing is that I am eating salads at lunch during the week instead of hot lunches at my school. Have no dessert at home and at school I only have a hot meal and dessert once a week.
