You Can Bet Your Personalized Poker Chips that These Silly Weight Loss Tips Actually Work Pt. 4

Most people struggle with their diets. Hectic lifestyles and unregulated self-control can really be a burden on our efforts to shape up. If you just can’t get a handle on your diet, it might be time to try something a little more unconventional than calorie counting. Check out my silly weight loss suggestions below. You can bet your personalized poker chips that they’ll help you drop the weight fast.

Invest in New Plates

Over the past 20 years, plate sizes have increased significantly. The average plate size used to be around 10 inches, but is now currently around 12 inches. That’s gives you a whole lot of extra room to overindulge because your perception of volume will be distorted as a result of the larger plate size. A decent sized portion of food will look puny on a large plate, but just right on a smaller plate. Grab a tape measurer with you as you’re shopping for new dishes. If you can’t afford to invest in new dishware at the moment, start serving your dinners on salad plates instead of dinner plates.

Workout While You Watch TV

I’m not exactly advocating excessive television viewing, as the average American already watches far too much television already, but if you must catch your favorite shows, challenge yourself during the commercial break with a workout. For every 1-hour show there are usually 4-5 5-minute breaks. Instead of staring at the television mindlessly during the breaks, get your butt off the couch and push yourself to do 30 sit-ups and 10 push-ups. Also consider jump roping or jogging in place to get in some cardio.
