1): How to Lose Weight
Firstly you must understand how to lose weight. Your body burns fat for energy to move you around whenever you have no energy reserves from food. Your body gets its energy from the calories in your food and drink. Therefore you must be eating fewer calories than you are burning to lose weight. You cannot ignore or get around this fact; any mad or revolutionary diet plan that tells you otherwise is lying or ignorant. To give you a guideline: There is roughly 3500 calories in a pound of fat.
So to burn a pound of fat you need to be burning 3500 calories either by exercising and/or dieting. A little of both is the easiest and best
2): Eliminate a few pounds of the extra water bloat.
The human body is known to carry three to five pounds of added water that it does not really need. Survival and evolution can be summed up as the reasons for this. The additional water content compensates for the times when water is scarce and helps you get by. Every time you get a drink of water, you tend to consume more than your body requires. The extra H20 keeps accumulating in your body and adds to your weight.
The best way to eliminate the extra pounds of water weight is to follow a paradox solution - consume more water. It may seem bizarre, but the science is simple. When you drink, say thirty to fifty ounces of more water than your body needs, it gets the hint that there's no scarcity of water. The unneeded extra water consumed by your body is then flushed out of the body within a day or two.
3): Exercise every day.
You can play sports, go walking, ride bikes, etc. Make sure you exercise for at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour each time you exercise. Also, try working some weight training into your exercise routine. Also concentrate on the areas of your body that need work on.
4): Increase your daily intake of fiber.
Eat some nuts at least once during the day. Help your body stay hydrated by drinking water with fresh lemon juice. Make sure you eat at least three servings of vegetables every day. When you do not consume enough fiber, you will start to feel hungry soon after eating a meal. You will feel full all day long if you eat several servings of fruit and vegetables throughout the day. You will not be ravenously hungry when you eat fiber because your digestive tract will slow down. When you feel full for a long period of time, you will not have food cravings. Drinking water with fresh lemon juice will also help your body stay hydrated and you will not mistake thirst for hunger.
6): Think about your long-term goals
It's okay to think big, but it may mean starting small and working your way towards the big goal. The big goal by the way should be to change the way you think of food and stay eating healthy with exercise! If your long-term goal is to lose 50 lbs. in a year maybe your short-term goal is getting through the day without overeating. Find the triggers that make you want to eat as well is a good way to change your habits to a healthier way of living.
In conclusion, there is an old saying and its true "lose it slowly, keep it off". This saying makes sense if you think about it because losing slowly will give your body and mind time to adapt to new behaviors, like eating healthy & less plus exercising more. When you focus on the process of changing your habits not just on losing weight, those new and healthier habits will be the big boosts you need in helping you meet your weight loss goals.
