Anyone can lose weight when taught the tips and tricks… that’s why diet plans generally preach only one method. Losing weight is about understanding your body – what tempts you? How do you feel about certain exercise plans? What are you willing to do? Here’s some weight loss advice (that I want you to share with everyone!):
Beware of invisible fat – it is still visible on your thighs!
Exercise is like sex. If you don’t get that feel-good feeling when you do it you aren’t doing it right!
Don’t buy packets of foods that tempt you & kid yourself that you will only have one at a time. You probably won’t.
If it’s not in your pantry, you can’t be tempted.
Mix it up. A little bit of the good-for-you stuff + a little bit of the good- tasting stuff = something that tastes good and is good for you too.
Eliminate excuses: “sorry, I’m not able to think about why this is important at the moment”, “ I’m too tired”, “I’m too busy”
Always have a bite-sized snack handy just to take the edge off your hunger while you prepare something more substantial.
Consider times that you have been intending to exercise, but your actions never followed your intentions. What got in the way?
Find a photo of your favourite celebrity body in their bikini and stick it on the fridge. A great reminder when you are feeling tempted.
What aspect of your life do you feel would be most improved if you lost weight and became healthier?
Expand your repertoire of healthy foods by trying new foods & re-trying foods that you think you dislike.
Something is better than nothing – a five-minute walk here, an apple instead of a donut there – it all adds up in the end.
