Five Easy Tips for weight loss

We are living in an era where fad diets are common. But losing extra body weight requires some kind of discipline in life and without that you cannot think of weight loss. You might have joined some weight loss programs or have used some quick and easy products, but do they really work? I am sure your answer would be a big NO. Here in this article, I am not giving you any magic trick for weight loss, but the real truth about losing weight.

Here are five success strategies for weight loss:

Honesty is the best policy: If you want to lose weight permanently then it will require some real and honest effort from your side. Make a commitment that may last for a lifetime. However, these changes will depend on your present lifestyle. If your present lifestyle is not so active then brace yourself for some drastic changes because your weight loss regime will require deep focus. In addition, consider other stress related issues in your life such as personal conflicts, financial problems, and others. It is also true that these issues cannot be wiped out all of a sudden, but you can definitely reduce them. So once you have pulled up your socks and ready to launch your weight-loss program just get started and don’t differ it for quirky reasons.

Motivate yourself from inside:

It is more than true that no one is going to shed your body weight. And therefore, you would need to find the motivation from inside. List out the things, which are capable of motivating yourself and help you stay focused. These motivations are truly helpful when you fall pray of temptations, if any. Some motivating factors might include your past when you were slim and healthy; your ill health condition due to overweight and others.

Set a realistic goal for yourself:

This is quite obvious, but many people fail to ascertain realistic goals when it comes to weight loss. It is quite practical to set a goal to lose weight of about 0.5 to 1 kg per week, which I think is achievable without harming the body. However, to achieve this goal, you will have to burn between 500 and 1000 calories every day. You can achieve this goal by consuming low calorie diet and through exercise. Never set a goal that is not achievable, because if you don’t achieve it, you will feel a sense of disappointment and as a result, you will easily get tempted to things which are against your weight loss regime and that is also because of sere frustration.

Eat healthy foods:

Lowering your total calorie intake will help you lose weight. This does not mean you have to go for dieting. One of the best ways to lower your calorie intake is to eat more and more green leafy vegetables, fruits and nuts. Start your weight loss program by taking healthy breakfast everyday and include vegetables, and fruits, and use healthy cooking oils. In addition, cut down your sugar intake, fat-dairy products, etc.

Stay Active:

I have already mentioned above that the key to weight loss is to burn calories. It has been calculated that 3500 calories make up to 0.5 kg of fat. This simply means that you will have to burn extra 3500 calories each day to lose 0.5 kg. You can definitely achieve this goal by combining low calorie diet plus exercise. Go for a brisk morning walk or join a gym for burning calories. Stay active all through the day and see the difference in just few weeks.
