Being overweight today is just not the "in" fashionable look. But when setting out to lose weight you have to take into account all of your unique personal factors including some which you can control and others which you can't
The following quick weight loss tips will help anyone, of any age, achieve a fast healthy weight loss:
1. Make a plan and write it down. In writing it down you will have a far greater chance of achieving it than if you just think about it. Then brag to as many people as you can about what you are going to achieve. This will be the added motivation to not lose face when the going gets tough!
2. The plan has 3 parts which must be balanced. Number one is to have your mind focused and committed. If your mind is not right then every little molehill will become an impassable mountain. And second is to have a healthy eating plan that you can always keep to. And thirdly to have a exercise plan which is balanced with regard to both cardiovascular exercise and muscle building.
3. Be flexible and listen to your body. If you find that the plan you originally started out with is not getting the planned results, then change it. This will apply to both your eating plan and your exercise plan.
4. Measure your performance. Keep a diary, charts, graphs, measurements, pictures or whatever else that will keep you motivated. Celebrate even the minor goals that are achieved.
5. Get specialist advice and support with your diet and exercise programs.
6. Drink lots of water. Through this program your body will be producing a lot of toxins and waste and it is important that the body can clear these away. Also with more exercise you will be sweating more.
7. Be disciplined and consistent. Just remember how to eat an elephant … one mouthful at a time.
7. Be kind to yourself. If you slip slightly then just get up and carry on. Failure is a common element in most successes. The secret is never giving up.
8. Don't starve yourself. Your body is adept at preserving itself and will use whatever it can to survive. Make sure its using fat and not muscle.
9. Don't crash diet... they just don't work. At some time you will give up and fall back to where you were.
10. Don't think that this is going to be easy. Initially it will require a massive push to start changing habits and cravings. Many times you will be tempted justify that it is too hard and to consider baling.
11. As you replace fat with muscle your weight might go up. This is not a problem as muscles are far more useful and in the long-term will consume far more calories than fat.
12. Avoid depending on diet pills or medication as although they might help you lose weight they will certainly have other side effects.
Quick weight loss will involve sacrifice and discomfort. A lifestyle change is not a simple process. The upside will be worth it. A healthy and more complete life. Being proud of yourself in every way. Losing weight might entail a little suffering, but as they say in the classics, there's "no gain, without pain." And anyway besides the unwanted fat, what else have you got to lose?
