How to Lose Weigh – 3 Easy Tips

Okay, you already know that you need to lose weight, but you have no idea how and where to start. You are not alone. This is exactly how most people feel when starting a weight loss plan. Here are 3 easy tips to get you started off right on your goal to be thinner.

Tip #1 – Eat right and eat often.

Most people eat one or two huge meals and eat like they are in a race to see who can finish first. First, you need to eat four or five smaller meals and slow down when eating them. The slower you eat, the more the food will be ‘broken down’ and ‘predigested’ in the mouth. This will give the food a better chance to be used, absorbed and not stored as fat in the body. You will also feel fuller by eating more times each day, so you will want to eat smaller meals and snack less.

Tip #2 – Exercise.

Okay, the dirty word…exercise. If you are to lose weight, keep it off and stay healthy, you have to do it. So with that said, it is time to make up your mind that you will begin to exercise and stick with it. Find an exercise that you like which will give you more of an incentive to keep doing it. Some types of exercise that can be fun are walking, jogging, biking, swimming, golfing, tennis, or going to the gym.

You do not have to spend money on a gym membership or trainer if you do not have it, just start a walking routine. It works out great if you can find a partner or buddy to walk with, but if not go at it alone. Go to the corner of the block today and then half way around the block tomorrow. The next thing you know, you will be walking 2-3 miles everyday.

Tip #3 – Drink water.

Drinking too many soft drinks and sugary juices helped get you in this predicament, so cut them out and drink water. You may be saying, “yuck…I get tired of plain old water.” Water is the only thing you can eat or drink that has ZERO calories, no fat, no sugar and again no calories and better yet, you must have water to live. That is right. You will die without it, so why not drink it to live and lose weight to boot?

It has a tendency to cleanse your system, curb your appetite by making you feel fuller and helps to digest your food. If you are not drinking at least eight glasses of water now, then add them to your daily routine. You will feel better, have nicer looking skin and lose weight.
