Fat Weight Loss – How to Do It


Something that many people are now looking into is fat weight loss. Unfortunately, there is no quick fix and anyone who tells you otherwise is leading you into a scam. There are no magical pills and no quick tricks. To lose weight, it is all down to making changes to your lifestyle and having the determination to stick to them.

Make Changes to Your Eating Habits

The first thing that you need to do is change your eating habits. You will never lose weight if you continue to eat burgers and chips all day, every day. You need to start eating healthily, which means cooking fresh meals and eating plenty of fruit and vegetables.

The good news is that you do not need to eat something that you hate. There are plenty of fruits and vegetables that you can try. If you do not like tomatoes, then leave them out of a salad. If you love melon, eat that. The worst thing that you can do is make yourself eat something that you hate.

You can have all types of fruit and vegetables and do not have to stick to fresh products. Frozen and tinned products are great too. If you do opt for tinned, opt for those in natural juices as they are healthier. You can also opt for dried fruit too, but these are not as healthy due to the water being drained from them. However, they do make great snack options.

Cut Down on Your Portion Sizes

You will be surprised by the amount of weight that you can lose by cutting down on your portion sizes. Most Americans will be surprised to hear that their portion sizes are too big. There are high chances that you do not need all of the food that you are eating – there are high chances that you feel extremely full, if not overfull, after eating a meal. It means that you need to cut down on the amount that you eat. This means that fewer calories are being eaten.

To lose weight, you need to create a calorie deficit. This means burning more than you are eating. This will give your body the chance to burn the calories that have been stored in your body over the years. However, the bad news is that the calories from your muscles are usually easier for your body to burn.

Start Exercising Today!

To prevent this from happening, you need to start exercising – if you do not already. Exercise is a great way to burn more calories, lead a healthier lifestyle and also get fitter. There are plenty of options available and you do not need to go to a gym to start doing exercise. If you have a Wii or Xbox console, there are plenty of getting fit games available to buy. You could also just take a brisk walk around the block or join a dance club. Do something that you enjoy.

Fat weight loss is something that anybody can do, but it is not the easiest thing. It will take time to lose weight healthily. The struggle that you may find afterwards is keeping that weight off and not going back into your old habits.

100 Day Challenge Day 28: Staying In Control on a Busy Day

Image
I mentioned yesterday on the 100 Day Challenge that Wednesday was going to be busy. I expected to eat the majority of my weekly pro points that I had left. In the end, I only went into a small amount of them. The whole way I did that was by staying in control and making good choices . That’s an important part of losing weight. Yes, I could have stuffed my face with chocolate because there were periods when I really wanted to, but I didn’t. I didn’t deprive myself either. When I wanted chocolate, I told myself that I would get it later (knowing that I’d have some later anyway).  It doesn’t have to be boring making good choices. Rather than having a bit of chocolate at the end of the night, I shared a punnet of strawberries with my husband and daughter. They gave me the sweet kick that I needed to finish off the day. They were juicier and more delicious than a bar of chocolate, too. While doing all that, I’m also drinking more water. I’ve even decided to start my day...

Why Eating Fruit and Vegetables Isn’t Enough to Lose Weight

Image
I received a message yesterday from someone looking for some weight loss support. She mentioned that she was eating lots of fruit and vegetables but still not losing weight. Okay, well, eating fruit and vegetables isn’t enough to lose weight. Yes, really! While eating fruit and vegetables can help—it certainly gets you your nutrients—it isn’t going to give you everything your body needs. In fact, too many fruit and vegetables can lead to weight gain. And you need to look at all the other stuff you’re eating! Be honest with yourself. So, let’s look at this in stages… Eating too much of a good thing is bad Yes, you really can eat too much of a good thing. Want to know why? Because you run the risk of not getting a balanced diet. While you get your fibre and nutrients from fruit and vegetables, you need to get carbohydrates, protein, and some fats. Yes, your body needs fat! By the way, fruit is full of natural sugar. While it’s not as bad for you as...
