Awesome tips for losing waight
2. TIPS FOR LOSING WEIGHT
Without further ado, let’s get into the tips:
1. No skipping. Don’t skip breakfast and lunch, and then have a massive meal during dinner time. That’s actually what sumo wrestlers do in order to maintain their weight.
2. Many small meals. It’s better to have a lot of smaller meals throughout the day, than one massively big meal all at once. Try going for 6 small meals rather than 3 big meals.
3. No starving. Don’t try to starve yourself all at once by going on a huge diet. This will give your body the impression that you’re starving at it’ll try to reduce your body’s metabolism so that more food gets stored up so you can survive the starvation.
4. It’s the lifestyle. Make losing weight a part of your lifestyle so that it comes naturally with your daily habits. There’s no point losing weight by going on diet in order to gain it back again later on.
5. Try moderation. You may not want to try totally abstaining from any foods. This may lead yourself to develop strong cravings. Instead, try practicing moderation. Eating one chocolate once in a while won’t make you fat. Eating a lot of chocolates will…
6. Exercise strictly. Create a daily exercise routine for yourself. Get yourself some accountability partners and make sure you stick with it.
7. Start cooking. Start eating out less, and learn to cook healthy meals at home on a more regular basis. Not only are restaurant portions increasing yearly, but a lot of extra seasonings like salt and MSG being added to the food will contribute to your weight gain.
8. Start learning. Educate yourself as to why you are gaining and the proper steps that you should be implementing in order to stop the weight gain process.
9. Start noting down. Some people have found that keeping a food diary can really help in managing and identifying areas of weakness that should be eliminated.
10. Eat slower. This helps give your brain time to start processing the signals necessary to tell you that you’re full. It does take a while.
11. Chew properly. In line with the tip above on eating slower, slim people are often better at chewing their food more thoroughly. Some people even recommend chewing your food at least 22 times before swallowing.
12. Stop overeating. A lot of people enjoy eating till their completely full to the brim and can hardly move after that. Once you’re full, you should stop.
13. Understand overeating. If you can’t seem to stop overeating, dig down to the root cause and eliminate it. Sometimes it may be because of stress or some emotional grievances.
14. Think small. Rather than making large changes and commitments that are hard to keep, make small changes one at a time and get them into your lifestyle.
15. Use substitution instead of elimination. Instead of completely eliminating certain unhealthy foods in your diet, consider substituting them with healthier alternatives.
16. Join a weight loss forum or find friends with similar goals. Working together and receiving encouragement from others can go a long way in helping you to cut down that weight.
17. Drink enough water. A basic tip but one very often overlooked. Drinking enough water can reduce the space available for taking in other sugary drinks. Also, we often mistake ‘thirst’ for ‘hunger’ and making sure you hydrate yourself enough may reduce your hungriness. The common rule is 8 glasses a day.
18. Cut down on salt. The amount of salt in your diet can lead to you gaining more weight through water retention. Cut down on the amount of salt in your meals, and on salty snacks too.
19. Eat more fruits. Eating more fruits can help to reduce the cravings for sugary foods that often come about. Fruits can also form the basis of a good healthy meal.
20. Get more active. Chances are that you have a really sedentary lifestyle, sitting in the office most of the day during working hours. Get more active, walk more whenever you can. Take the stairs instead of the elevator when it’s available to you.
21. Walk to work. Instead of driving to work, to may want to walk to work. Or you might want to drive but park somewhere a bit farther away and walk the rest of the way.
22. Stand up while working. You may not be able to do this in the office, but if you can stand up while working in front of your computer at home, it’s a lot better than sitting down. Try putting a piece of memory foam under your feet to keep them from getting uncomfortable too fast. Also, make sure to balance your weight evenly between both legs.

24. Walk while on the phone. After sitting down the whole day, get yourself a bit more active while talking on the phone by walking a bit through your house.
25. Walk while waiting. While waiting for anything to get done, whether you’re waiting through a commercial or for the water to boil, walking up and down a bit helps too.
26. Sit up straight. A lot of us have bad posture while we’re sitting. This leads to back problems, and also weakens our tummy. Try to make it a habit to sit up straight.
27. Before and after. Take a picture of yourself before you started gaining weight and put it in a place you can see daily. Strive to get back to your slim and fit old self.
28. Visualization. In your mind, just picture yourself as the slim and stunning individual that you want to be. This will help keep you motivated and steer your mind in the right direction.
29. Walk the dog. It’s a great way to get some healthy exercise. You may even want to run with your dog if it’s feeling up to it.
30. Eat more fibers. Make sure you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables to get those fibers going through your body. Constipation is often a huge cause of weight gain.
31. Eat yogurt. The healthy bacteria in your body might be at an all-time low, leading to poor digestion. Have some non-fat organic yogurt to keep the healthy bacteria count up.
32. Cut down on the dairy. Dairy products like milk, cheese, and butter have been shown to contribute to obesity. You might want to replace these items with vegan alternatives.
33. Go vegetarian. Going vegetarian can be a good way to lose weight. You might not want to go vegetarian all your life, but perhaps doing it at least once or twice a week would help.
34. Cut down on the fried foods. Definitely cut down on those fried things, and go with baking or steaming instead if you can.
35. Eat more. Yes, eat more healthy stuff like fruits and vegetables instead of cutting your meals down and starving yourself. Fill yourself with greens and fruits.
36. Go small. Using smaller bowls, plates, and cups can help you reduce the amount of food you take in. Sometimes using plates that are too big cause us to take too much and accidentally overeat, even though we never intended too.
37. Cut down on stress. Getting yourself often stress out can cause your digestive system to deteriorate. Try to relax more and make sure you don’t get stressed out.
38. Get more sleep. It has been shown that getting not enough sleep can make you fat. Even if you have a lot of work to do, getting more sleep can make you more productive and that means getting things done much more quickly.
39. Understand the implications. Many people don’t know how dangerous to the health it can be for you to be unhealthy overweight. By understanding the implications of an unhealthy weight, you can often motivate and drive yourself forward to maintaining a healthy weight.
40. Understand the situation. First, find out your ideal weight. Then, take your current weight. Use your current weight and subtract your ideal weight from it. This is how much extra weight you’re carrying around every day. Get something that weighs the same thing and try carrying it around for a while. Heavy isn’t it?
41. Go direct. Losing weight can be easy if you direct yourself straight to the goal. Unfortunately, too many people overcomplicate things by trying out new fad after new fad and running around in circles. If you stuck with the basics, you would have lost that weight long ago.
42. Clear up. As you start losing weight, you can start donating or giving away the clothes that don’t fit you. Getting yourself a change in clothing can often serve as a strong motivator.
43. Eat quietly. Don’t put yourself in front of the PC or the TV while you’re eating your meals. Studies have shown that it can affect our ability to tell how full we are, and you might start getting hungry a little sooner than usual later on.
44. Watch TV less. Going on a tangent from the previous tip, studies have shown that watching more TV can actually cause you to eat more. The long story short – watch TV less.
45. Order small. When eating out, order less than you think you could eat. Often, this is more accurate, and we often order too much and overeat because we’re hungry and we overestimate the amount that would actually make us full.
46. Never say never. If I told you, ‘Don’t think of a pink elephant’, you’ll probably start thinking about it. Instead of telling yourself what you shouldn’t be eating, tell yourself what you should be eating.
47. Weigh yourself. A lot of people looking to lose weight are afraid of seeing their own weight. But you can’t improve if you don’t keep track, so it’s important for you to weigh yourself daily.
48. Less white flour. A lot of products with white flour, such as bread and pasta, can actually be bad for your weight. Replace them with whole wheat alternatives instead.
49. Change of color. It has been proven that the color red tends to increase the appetite, while the color blue tends to decrease it. Knowing this, you might want to have more blue stuff lying around.
50. Read this again. Reading through something once is often not enough. To really start getting it, you’ll often have to read through it several times or even once a day. Bookmark or print this page out, and go through these tips again and again and again to reinforce the concepts in your mind and to remind yourself. We do often forget.
