Who doesn’t want to lose weight fast? I do – it would be great to diet and within a week lose 50 pounds, but it’s not that easy to lose it. I mean think about it, it probably took a few years for you to put the weight on – do you really think you can lose it in a day? Nope.
But these tricks will help you lose weight. They’ve worked for me, and continue to work for me…
Tip #1 for Fast Weight Loss
Exercise. You need to burn calories in order to lose weight, eating less will not do it. It does not need to be very active, vigorous exercise – but moderate exercise. Some great examples of moderate exercise are: watercize, walking or even bicycling.
If you’re not in a position to go outside, consider an exercise bicycle for your home and try 3-5 times per week for as little as 10 minute per session and gradually work your way up.
I can understand that if you are obese exercise is difficult and you don’t want to over exert yourself, so start slowly and work your way up.
If you have other health issues, you should also speak to your doctor to let them know what you’re planning so that they can give you good advice about the type of exercise you should undertake and any limitations that they may suggest.
Tip #2 for Fast Weight Loss
Drink water.
Yes, soda pop, juice and all the other sweet drinks are tastier than water – but your body needs water. I find drinking a glass or two of water before I eat helps me control how much I eat and makes me feel fuller, quicker.
If you can’t drink water straight up – try adding something like Crystal Light to it. I did this, and do this from time-to-time and it really helps me stay hydrated.
If water just won’t cut it – you could try decaffeinated drinks like tea or coffee – cut the sugar and use skim milk instead of whole milk or cream.
Tip #3 for Fast Weight Loss
Proper nutrition. OK, you can’t get away from it. You need to eat right, you do not (and should not) cut out, but cut down on the bad foods but you need your share of good foods: fresh fruits and vegetables, grains. Plus stop eating fast foods, fried foods, sugary foods, and white flour products – to mention a few.
Cutting out fast foods is a must. Did you know that one fast food meal could contain the amount of calories you need for a full day!
Tip #4 for Fast Weight Loss
Sleep.
Your body needs it. You should try and get at least 7 or 8 hours of good sleep every night.
Try and keep your room cool. A good pillow, and great bed will help you get the best sleep. Consider the type of bed you are using – I used to use the typical spring bed — but was introduced to a bed made from “rubber” — and you know what, it supports my weight better, is firmer and I get a GREAT nights sleep (I’ll talk about beds and sleep in a future post).
Your bedroom should be used for sleeping, and well OTHER activities. You shouldn’t use your bedroom for eating, or watching tv. Keep these activities confined to those areas where they’re meant to be conducted. Associating your bedroom with TV or FOOD means it will distract you from what the bedroom is intended for.
