Here are some simple steps to help you lose weight:1.Before dieting, you must know how many calories you normally need in a day. If you are sedentary, multiply your weight (in pounds) by fifteen. If you are moderately active, multiply your weight by seventeen; if you are active, multiply your weight by twenty. This will give you the average calorie intake you need per day.2.Remember to eat your fruits and veggies! You need at least five servings of them per day �C doing this will put you on the right track to a healthy body, because fruits and vegetables have beneficial fibers, vitamins and antioxidants. They also fill up your stomach fast so that you don��t overeat and take into many calories.3.Monitor the quantity of food you eat. Avoid high-calorie foods and eat in small portions. A helpful tip is to chew your food slowly because this makes digestion easy on your body and you will also be less likely to overeat.4.Don��t skip meals. When you want to lose weight it may be tempting to starve yourself �C but eating small amounts of food frequently can help you maintain a healthy, balanced calorie intake throughout the day. Also, your blood sugar level will be adversely affected if you don��t eat often. You can even divide the standard allotment of three meals into five or six smaller meals.5.Fresh fruits and vegetables are ideal �C packaged and processed foods have high sodium and fat content. You are more likely to lose weight if you eat naturally fresh foods.6.Don��t limit your food intake too much. Go ahead and indulge yourself; eat your favorite treat. It��s okay to have that slice of birthday cake at the occasional party. Just make sure to eat in moderation and use those special desserts as rewards, instead of enemies, to your weight loss experience.7.Don��t always believe everything you read on a food label. ��Fat free�� does not necessarily mean low calories. The same wisdom goes for foods that boast ��low sugar�� or ��low carbs.�� Glance over the nutrition label �C there you��ll find the calorie count.8.Try to limit the number of juices and sugary beverages you drink. Instead, drink eight glasses water a day �C this flushes out your body��s toxins and waste.9.If possible, keep a food journal. This will help you keep track of your calorie intake and will be a daily reminder of the types of foods you need.10.Don��t forget to exercise! Thirty to sixty minutes of physical activity a day will ensure your health and help you lose weight (and not to mention, firm up those muscles). Weight-bearing exercises are especially great ways to burn those pesky calories.
Step 1:First you want to walk when possible you do not need to jog just walk. Take a walk around the neighborhood. Jump on the trampoline with the kids. Try to get a least a little bit of physical activity.Step 2:You will need to eat a lot of cereal including oatmeal, tuna on wheat with a little mayonnaise, fish, grains, fresh fruit, and fresh vegetables. Step 3:You can still eat at fast food restaurants just eat a little healthier.Eat a grilled chicken salad with low fat dressing and drink water or a diet soda. Or eat a sandwich on wheat with lots of vegetables and turkey with low fat dressing or none at all. You can enjoy some of those high fat foods occasionally just not daily. Limit yourself to one every two weeks. Watch the pounds begin to shed.
