Top weight loss tips
Today there is too much information available on losing weight that has become more confusing and sometimes difficult to follow. It’s actually very easy to lose weight if you follow my weight loss tips.
* Be in right frame of mind
Before you can start any diet program you need to be in the right frame of mind. If you do not feel good about yourself you probably will not want to choose healthy foods. You cannot expect the act of going on a diet to make you feel better about yourself. The only way you can choose to eat a healthy diet to lose weight is if you have a positive self-image.
* Eat whole food
Top weight loss tips
Eat whole foods that are as natural as possible. When you eat whole foods that are full of nutrients your body will know how much to eat and how much not to eat. You do not have to count calories because your body is a wonderful machine.
* Eat fresh fruit
Eat at least two servings of fresh fruit every day. Choose whatever type of fruit is in season.
* Drink enough water
Drink the best weight loss supplement known to man, water. Most people do not know the difference from being hungry for food or thirsty for water. A great deal of times people eat when they should drink. Most likely you will not feel as hungry if you are getting enough water. You will be satisfying the thirst, which is confused for hunger. Water also helps you digest food better. Drinking water before you eat will help fill you up.
* Always chew your food
Always chew your food well. Chewing your food well will ensure that you get the most nutrients out of your food. Getting the most nutrients will satisfy your body therefore you will eat less. Another benefit of chewing well is that it helps aid in digestion.
* Take small meals
Eat small, frequent meals in a day. Large meals tax your digestion system, making it work harder. Taking too much time in between meals makes you hungrier for the next meal.
* Include protein at meal
Include good sources of protein at meal, chicken, fish, legumes, peanut, cottage cheese, eggs or yogurt.
* Shut off TV while eating
Shut off the TV whenever you eat – that includes meals and snacks. Studies show that we automatically eat larger portions when we snack in front of the tube, and typically those foods are high in fat and sugar, which means excess calories!
* Increase your physical activity
Increase your physical activity. Most people are over weight because of a lack of physical activity. Start walking more, bicycling, walks your dog for longer periods of time, swim, dance and leave the car at home when you can. It’s important that you choose a physical activity that you enjoy because you’ll stick with it.

To do any weight loss healthy, you have to cut your calorie intake to about 1400 calories per day, then exercise for at least 30 minutes of rigourous exercise. Do this while eating a balanced diet consisting of foods from the Food Pyramid. You should lose 1-2 lbs a week depending on your weight it could be more. This is a health way to lose weight. Or else you could quit eating or throw up lots, but that is dangerous, unhealthy and crazy.

Watch what you eat. Don't go on any crazy fasting diet...you'll lose muscle mass. Instead of fat. Just about all of the "fast" diets are bad for your body. Just take your time and watch your portions when you eat. Exercise will also help burn calories. So keep those things in mind and you'll lose weight over a small amount of time...in a HEALTHY way!

I've heard this question often in my life! Of course seldom do people like the answer!
How fast did you put the weight on? Reduce your calories and excersise. That's the only way to lose weight if you wish to remain healthy! Modify your eating habits. Watch your, carbs, sugars and starches. You have to watch how often you eat, this includes snacks, and you have to watch how much you eat!

What I did to break my bad eating habbits was the following:
I cooked an entire Turkey. Made it into stew (like beef stew, but with turkey and no potatoes). And made it into a turkey vegetable soup.
I ate the stew, soup, and salads for 2 weeks to break myself of the cravings for sugars and starches. For snack food, I had raw broccoli, green peppers, celery, and cucumbers with light ranch or light blue cheese dressings.
By 3 weeks, I had lost 13 lbs.
Those first 2 weeks are rough though. Even though the soup was tasty, I was craving starches. After that though, I can only eat small amounts of starches now. I don't crave them anymore.

How fast is fast? The quickest way would be high protein, no fat, no sugar...
But it won't last. As soon as you start to eat carbs, fat or sugar, it'll all come right back.
so the truly best way? Balanced diet, exercise...energy in, energy out.

Drink lots of water, and eat a low-salt diet.
