4 Tips To Help You Get Fit And Stay Healthy

     Losing weight isn抰 a effortless task. Many fall for the deception that almost all the quick weight loss solutions create. They only get quick results that can抰 be maintained over time and only make you even more discouraged and restless. You have to cope with the idea that you probably won抰 lose weight overnight and that it will take time, lots of effort and perseverance to gain the amazing looking body that you want and deserve.

Here are 4 tips that most successful weight loss programs share:

1)Learn how to relax yourself: as you get stressed you start eating more and more food in a frantic attempt to make yourself feel better. The more stressed you feel the more you will consume. The really unlucky part is that anxiety makes you crave lots of unhealthy junk food which only make you fat. You have to find out ways to fight against anxiety and stress if you want to lose weight and keep it off forever. For me contemplation works best. I have found that by meditating 5-10 minutes daily I can get rid of stress and anxiety very easily. If you want to burn the fat away and calm your mind at the same time you should give yoga a try.

2)On no account starve yourself: contrary to common belief starving yourself won抰 help you lose weight or maintain your weight and health. If you stop eating meat and you eat only once a day your metabolism will get destroyed in the process. Your metabolism won抰 be able anymore to use up all the calories and surplus energy that you have in your body. You should continue to eat but you should take into consideration the serving size and the hours of the day when you eat. Some people believe that the metabolic burnings get even more intense if you eat less food at each meal but you eat several times each day. You should eat between 4-5 times each day.

3)Consume more aliments during the first part of the day: you should eat the bulk of all the aliments you eat during a day in the morning and at lunch. Your body needs lots of fuel early in the morning so that it will be able to do successfully fulfill any tasks you have to do. If you body has all the calories it desires it will be able to burn the maximum number of calories and give you all the energy you need all day long. It is very counterproductive to eat big meals as night approaches because your body gets ready for sleeping, and it doesn抰 need that much energy to sleep. All the surplus calories will become fat cells. If you want to lose weight you should get into the habit of eating big healthy meals in the morning and smaller snack sized meals in the afternoon.

4)Drink a lot of water: you probably know that you must drink at least 8-10 cups of water every day. Drinking lots of water is very important if you want to be healthy and it is especially important if you are on a weight loss diet. If you exercise frequently your body will become thirsty frequently also. You have to drink water to prevent dehydration and be able to exercise at your full force. You should drink water before, during and after working out and during the whole day. If you can you should drink a glass of water before each meal. Our bodies more often than not mistake hunger for thirst. By drinking a glass of water you will eat far a reduced amount of food and you will lose weight quicker.
