New Weight Loss Tips
Too many guys find themselves taking orders from a growling, bulging gut. That stops now. These man-centric strategies from David Kirchoff—the CEO of Weight Watchers, who lost 40 pounds on the plan—will help manage your middle.
Drop the denial.
Men make all kinds of arguments: We're supposed to be heavier than women. It's not fat, it's muscle. She likes me this way. Hey, football players are huge and nobody gives them a hard time. But here's the fact: Once your BMI nudges past 25, your health risks accelerate. If you're not really buying the BMI argument, then check your waist size: Forty inches or larger is a good indication that it's time to cease the denial.
Use vanity as motivation.
Just don't go crazy. It's a little sad that I've fallen into the trap of pretty clothes, but frankly those clothes motivate me to keep the weight off. Incentives matter. Whatever drives you, use it.
Yes, men are emotional eaters too.
I'm a focus group of one, so I know. I eat when I'm bored, when I'm anxious, when I'm fidgety, when I need a distraction. Sound familiar? Plan for those contingencies, plus whatever else sabotages you, and have a strategy to see you through without eating half a pizza.
Men can lose weight pretty easily when we put our minds to it.
I ate like such an idiot that it was fairly easy for me to reform my diet and drop the pounds. Use the confidence of early weight loss to stay motivated. Set challenges for yourself; bet your buddies. Yes, you too can look better naked.
