Natural Weight Loss - it’s not as difficult as you think

There are thousands of weight loss programs available - which show that losing weight is an almost universal preoccupation! When you examine what many of these programs are all about, though, you can see why people who lose weight typically are not able to keep it off for good. Unlike natural weight loss, many weight loss programs emphasize special products such as meal replacements or supplements. The real problem is that any one of us can stay with this kind of program for whole life - and as soon as we get off the weigh loss program, the weight is likely to creep back on, and you're back where you started.

Natural weight loss is totally different. With natural weight loss, you use the simplest principle to lose weight; you must use more calories than you take in. You make this principle work in your favor, and you can do this in one of two ways. You can either eat less - and that doesn't mean cutting out or minimizing entire food groups, but just eating less of whatever you happen to be eating - or you can exercise more. To be really successful, of course, you should do both.

The simplest and most natural technique is this: eat only when you're hungry, and when you're not hungry stop eating. It sounds simple and logical - but it's amazing how few of us actually do this! This natural weight loss technique has one great advantage - it teaches you to listen to your body. Given the chance, your body will tell you when and how much you need to eat. No book can tell you that. After all, your needs vary from day to day. Some people have a 'hungry day' followed by a 'not hungry' day, and that's what’s natural for them. 'Naturally' thin people are those who habitually listen to their bodies.

The natural way to exercise is to do it often, but at a low intensity. Throughout most of human history, people didn't visit the gym, but they did move around all day, every day - they walked or rode everywhere, for one thing. And most of these people were not overweight. You can do the same. One way to do this is to establish a certain 'minimum distance' for driving, and stick to it. For example, you can decide never to drive if your destination is closer than ten blocks. Of course, there will be exceptions, but just following a policy like this most of the time will inject a lot of extra exercise into your day.

If you have fat on your tummy, sit ups might help hold it in, but the best way to lose weight on your tummy is to go running and lose the weight.

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:
The correct way to burn fat and stay healthy is to burn more calories than you consume
You need to make sure you are eating healthy foods while still excercising
If you have a big appetite drink plenty of water so that you will feel full but not consume calories
But you should always eat
If you start to skip meals you will only be more hungry at your next meal and probably eat way too much
Remember, the average persons stomach is as big as a slice of pizza scrunched up into a ball
So you shouldnt be putting more food into your stomach than what fits
Also, it takes aproximately 15-20 minutes for your brain to realize that you are full
so eat slower and you will realize sooner when you are not hungry anymore

ALSO....
i found this artical called "50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People
How to get Started:Decide how much you want to loose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by year's end.Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises you need to achieve your goal.
Slash 250 cal.s a day to lose about 25 lbs. in a year, Slash 500 cal.s to loose 50 pounds.
This is based on a 150-pound person: you may need to cut more/ fewer calories depending on ur weight, age & gender. It also assumes your normal calorie intake essentially stays the same and your weight is stable.

Crunches, NOT sit-ups (they can injure your spine and have little effect on your abdominal muscles).
