How To Finally Lose Weight Rapidly

Let’s look at the effects and possible complications of obesity:

Obesity increases the risk of developing disease. Possible
complications include: * Heart disease * High blood pressure *
Cancer * Diabetes * Gallbladder disease * Breathing problems *
Bloating and stomach upsets * Varicose veins * Severe
psychological problems In fact, according to some studies,
almost 70 percent of heart disease cases in the United States
are linked to excess body fat, and obese people are more than
twice as likely to develop high blood pressure.

Obese women are at nearly twice the risk for developing breast
cancer, and all obese people have an estimated 42 percent higher
chance of developing colon cancer.

Almost 80 percent of patients with Type 2, or
non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus are obese.

The risk of medical complications, particularly heart disease,
increases when body fat is distributed around the waist,
especially in the abdomen. This type of upper body fat
distribution is more common in men than in women. The social
and psychological problems experienced by obese people are also
challenging. Discrimination for “fat” people is most likely to
occur in educational institutions, employment, and social
relationships.

Other psychological effects include stress, nervous tension,
boredom, frustration, lack of friends, depression, inferiority
complex, and poor self-esteem.

Here are some action steps to take.

1. The Proper Plan

Before taking actions in any problem we encounter, there should
always be a plan first..

Beginning a task without planning is like building a house
without a blueprint or fighting against a basketball team
without a team play with your teammates. How can you expect a
good outcome?

Losing weight is not at all different from any other situation.
It also involves taking action based on proper plans built on
good information. The better your plan, the more solid the
information it is based on, the more satisfying your result.

2. Setting a Goal

Okay, so your weight is 20% above the considered normal for
your height. You tend to eat more than 5 regular meals a day.
You’re certain that you’re physically unfit. Now, the question
is, what do you want to happen?

Setting a goal is the first step in planning. Know what you want
to accomplish. This way, the road you are taking is clear. You
can keep track of your journey – whether or not you are heading
in the right direction. With a goal in mind, you are always
motivated to finish a task, or in some cases, to start doing it.

3. Be Definite

Setting a specific goal, when planning to lose weight, improves
your chances of success.

Be clear and definite with what you want happen.

Vague aims such as ‘I’d like to be healthier’ or ‘I need to lose
a few kilos,’ tend to produce half-hearted efforts and poor
results.

Instead, state your goal distinctly: ‘I want to lose 2-3 kilos
this week and every week’ or ‘I will trim my waist line from 40″
down to 32″ by the end of the month.’

If you need to, write it down and put it where you will always
see and read it. This way, you’ll always be reminded of what you
want and need to accomplish by the end of the month, the week,
or even the day.

4. Be Realistic

In establishing a definite goal, make sure that it is possible
and doable – realistic, in simpler terms.

How can a goal like ‘I’ll lose 15 lbs in just a week happen if
even the most accurate weight-loss diet suggests that you can
only burn 6-7 lbs in a week?

Goals need to be sensible so that they can be achieved.

When you set an unrealistic goal, you’re setting yourself up for
disappointment. Many people give up on their goals because they
fail to base their plans on the correct information.

5. Strategizing

After deciding on your goal, the next step is planning how to
accomplish it.

Planning involves proper scheduling of activities throughout the
whole day for a certain period of time.

These include exercises, meals, and rest.

It also includes the time these activities should be done, the
duration, and in the case of eating meals, the food to be
consumed.

This way, inappropriate spur-of-the-moments decisions can be
avoided.

A proper and effective plan consists of quality time for
performing such activities. Give yourself enough time to meet
your goals. For example, sleep should be scheduled to last for
around 8 hours a day so that you’ll be able to get enough rest.
Lack of sleep may cause improper eating habit the next day.
Again, plans should be realistic. Include only time and
activities you know you can accomplish for a given period of
time.

After preparing the plan, write it down since you can’t always
keep the many details in mind. Post it in a place where you can
always see and read it to remind you what your plans are for the
day.

Try your best not to skip anything in your scheduled plan. Work
on making it happen. 6. Change your mind, change your life

The first step to change is in your mind. Once you can activate
a positive intention, the process of change begins. If you
really want something to happen, you have to say “yes” to it.
Then, and only then, can you see and experience ways in which
you can shift your reality.
