1 Dietary Balance and reading labels: watch what you eat, and expend more energy than you consume. It��s really that simple. This involves some calculation. The approximate normal daily caloric requirement for an average male who performs light activity is 2,200; for a female, it is 1,900.Do the math. Eat less and eat at least five meals a day. Your actual caloric requirement can differ depending on your height, weight, activity level and your body s metabolic rate.http://knowdiet.blogspot.com/2 Identify your exercise. No exercise was created equal. You might like running, so run. You might like jogging, so jog. You might like stationary bikes, so bike stationary. Find the one that works best for you. Don��t pick a routine that you don��t like and won��t stick with it for long. http://knowexercise.blogspot.com/3 Try yoga. Yoga is one of the best ways of losing weight. Of course I can��t go into a full lecture about yoga over here but I can tell you that I have never seen people with better-toned bodies than those who practice yoga. One of the benefits of yoga is that you learn to control virtually every muscle and joint of your body so that the issue of weight gain will cease to exist.http://knowingyoga.blogspot.com/4 Photos and Joining online support group : Take before and after photos. There��s no easier way to illustrate your progress. It��s essential that you not feel alone, and reaching out to friends helps as they know things that you couldn��t possibly know, and they��ve probably been ��in your shoes�� at some point in the past (or present). Share stories, laughter, tears, successes, and failures. There are thousands of communities out there, so keep looking until you find one that fits you.http://learnfriendship.blogspot.com/5 Water you waiting for If you��re not drinking enough water, your body will let you know. Thirst is an amazing sensation �C quench it. If you��re not hydrated, your body won��t be working at peak levels. If you��re worried about ��water weight,�� remember that you��re likely to retain more water when you��re not giving your body enough of it in the first place. I��m not going to dictate how many glasses you should drink, though �C as that��s going to vary from person to person.http://knowingbody.blogspot.com/6 Zone out. There��s a reason why people exercise to their favorite music �C listening to external stimulus takes your mind off of the physical activity making ��exercise time�� fly or situate yourself in front of TV or video games involving exercises.http://knowingmusic.blogspot.com/7 Sleep it off. To be an efficient fat-burning machine, If you think that you��re doing yourself a favor by sleeping less, you��re mistaken. Give your body time to rest itself, both mentally and physically. Sleep is very, very important. http://sleepnicely.blogspot.com/ 8 Keep a food diary. All you have to do is jot down what, when, and how much you eat in a notebook, or you can do it online at a Web site . A food diary gives a clear picture of your current eating habits so you can identify the changes you need to make to lose weight.http://handlingtime.blogspot.com/9 Be confident and motivated.You need to believe in yourself!. Learn to evaluate your efforts fairly and objectively. If you fail to achieve your target , find out why is it so. After evaluating, look ahead. When you have thought of giving up, visualize how good you will look when you manage to slim down successfully. http://learnconfidence.blogspot.com/http://knowmotivation.blogspot.com/
Be activeBeing more active and staying that way is one of the key strategies for long term success. Finding something you enjoy, and can fit into daily life helps ensure you keep it up. Walking suits many people (see below), but gardening, dancing, team sports, gym workouts, martial arts, any active hobby all count. Doing it with someone else boosts motivation too.
Keep it balancedMake meals automatically healthy, balanced and satisfying. Half fill your plate with plenty of vegetables and salad and divide the other half between lean protein-rich foods such as lean meat, chicken, fish, pulses, Quorn or tofu and healthy carbs such as pasta, new potatoes, Basmati or brown rice.
A food diary helps you recognise this ��trigger�� or ��non-hungry�� eating, which in turn places you in a better position to deal with it. For example, make a conscious choice to eat (or not to eat - see below) a food. Or plan ways to avoid triggers in the first place, for example, keep ��binge�� foods out of the house or join an evening class to keep you away from the TV, crisps and wine bottle!
