Do you have any weight loss tips ? How to keep yourself healthy lol? -

when u wana shed a few pounds what do you do? how do you stay healthy

Instead of asking yourself Am I full yet? try asking Am I still hungry? Whenever you feel you wanna have a snack,aim for the water bottle instead.Convince yourself that you don t like bread,that you don t really feel like having dessert right now,that one cube of sugar in your drink is more than enough,that olives are only yummy with a glass of martini,and that you don t really like martini.And so on.If you can t afford the gym now,dance in your room for an hour/day.If I think of something else, I ll post again :)

Really you might have to try a few things to see what works best for you because i have learned that any one lifestyle does not fit everyone. I cannot go on a strict diet that does not allow me to eat sweets and things that i normally eat so i have a system where i just gradually cut back on the unhealthy things but i do not completey eliminate them because i would never stick to it. Eating 5 small meals a day of about 300 calories each works well for me for a total of about 1500 calories a day. I also have one day a week where i get to treat my self to whatever i want. I personally like ice cream so on that one day i may have a cheeseburger and some ice cream but after that one day i am back to my regualar healthy eating. Also i cannot emphaize how important excercise is to weight loss and to your over all health. you have to find some exercise that you like to do or once again you wont stick to it. I like to run/jog and i am up to 5 miles a day at least 6 days a week and i also try to add an half an hour a day where i just turn on some of my favorite music and just dance which you will be suprised at how much of a sweat you can work up. So over all i would say that every one is different so you have to find out what works for you. If you are not seeing any changes then pay more attention to what you are eating, eat more whole wheat instead of things like white bread, pasta, potatoes, etc. if you need a soda drink diet (it takes the same as regular to me). to boost your metabolism drink green tea and also a strong cup of black coffee will help to get my metabolism going. Use sweetners like splenda and try to get away from regular sugar. Increase your cardio (running, etc) because i think that pilates is good for strength and toning but you need to sweat more to loose the weight. hope that helped.

It s all about consistancy Sam....being committed regular. Weight isn t the major factor as long as you aren t grossly overweight.....it s more about your overall fitness being disciplined to exercise often , eat less watching your intake of sugar.Sugar is a killer if you think about it , most processed foods contain bucketloads of it....stay off the soda pops , cakes , cookies, etc etcKeep up the running ....

i lost 19 kgs in 4 months after i gave birth.the way i did it is:i stopped eating white bread and switched to wholemeal bread....as it has more fibre,it makes you feel fuller for longer.i no longer skip breakfast,having a good healthy breakfast will give you the energy you need to go thru your day without reaching for that bar of chocolate or that muffin at work.i switched from a light lunch and a good dinner To a good lunch and a light dinner.my snacks are fruit and fat free yogurt.i do have that piece of chocolate cake now and than but i always try to minimize the portion and have a large glass of water before any meal.All meals have to have veggies in them,my favorite is broccoli and boiled english spinach seasoned with lemon juice.Tip:use smaller plates and always have a variety of different colored veggies in each meal.Another tip:have a weekly plan of what your meals will be for the whole week and get all the stuff you need so you don t get tempted in the shops to buy procced foods.BTW: i did that diet 8 years ago and i kept the weight off.

Ya im trying to loss 5 kg and its too difficult for me but anyway I don��t eat chocolate or sweet almost nothing its just cuz I don��t like sweet but I like very much photos and ships so I stopped eating them till now :S and every day I go running for 1 hr but in the off days I go to the beach and I stay around 3 hr swimming but sadly I still didn��t lose even gram :(My friends are taking slimming pills and they lost a lot but I don��t want to take this I don��t think that they are good

A scripture verse from the bible is helping me currently. Do not eat choice foods because not every food is good for every body. So i have been eating foods I don t choose usually. I have found that these foods (while I have no passion for them but don t hate them--fill me up and I don t over eat.) And the added bonus is that I have stopped thinking about choice food and I eat get full and as long as I stay with neutral foods I wouldn t ordinarily choose, my body is getting healthier and feeling better.

I have a small trampoline. its so good it really keeps those extra pounds off me, so im jumping up and down in my lounge to music... my neighbours think im nuts but it works hahai would have a smaller portion of food for dinner if i felt like i needed to cut down a bit, i heard eating dinner earliest as possible is best because gives time to digest and break down while you are still up and walking about than if you are sleeping and not doing anything (so i have heard anyways) i will try not to snack between meals, or replace these with fruit.

Avoid eating regular bread. Try the thin one, 3al saj. I eat a labneh sandwich in the morning with a fruit, i have a steak or chicken for lunch with a salad...in the afternoon i eat a fruit again..at night I eat a cheese sandwich, white cheese..with a fruit or some salad. Drink water when you get hungry and try not to eat more than 3 times a day.

stop eating to much pizzas and pasta, eat more vegetables less meat, drink 8 glass of water per day and do excersices! the best way to lose weight is doing some excersices. plus be patient there is not yet a magic formula to be 90 60 90 in one week.

eat more frequently but in less amounts.. as in instead of 3 full meals a day, 6 half meals.it keeps u more full and it keeps ur digestive system running smoothly.exercize regularly, even simple ones before bed n in the morning wen u wake up..they say white tea works.. give it a try as wellgd luck! =]

I used to jog everyday and stopped eating dinner....Now its getting hotter so i stopped joggingbut i swim everyday :DThats how i stay fit :)

Eat fruit and vegetables, drink water, avoid eating all at once and eat small portions every once in a while, etc.

most important thing don t eat after 8 drink lots of water if u can, exercise regularly.. bass el sara7a i dont think enno u need to :)
