Losing Weight

By Jay Bonaretti

Its time to get on top of weight loss. There are so many conflicting approaches out there, so no wonder so many people (probably yourself included) is confused about how to shed that weight for good. Well, lets go through some basic ideas behind weight loss and how begin getting in shape NOW.

Lets begin with diets. In a few words, avoid diets like the plague. They are short-term quick fixes. In all honesty, can you see yourself staying on a diet in the long term? The honest answer is no...so then why waste your time and money now, just to realise that you arent going to get anywhere.

Fad dieting is one thing, fad exercise machines are the next. I would be highly sceptical of any machine that is advertised on television to build a six pack, or sculpt your thighs. As a professional, I am yet to see a machine that actually delivers on these empty promises. Save your money.

Weight loss products such as pills are a definite miss without a sound plan of attack. They should not be the foundation to your weight loss endeavours. This is a short-term fix, completely unhealthy and misguided. If they are the centre of your weight loss attempts, you need to throw them away and get some professional assistance to point you in the right direction for long-term success.

Believe it or not, lifestyle is the key factor to weight loss in most individuals. So, if we make some changes here, big weight loss will be induced in the long-term!

For starters, exercise is a key ingredient to maximum weight loss. Yes, this is common sense, but many people avoid exercise like the plague.

Now by exercise, I do not mean Biggest Loser Style. This is extreme and definitely not suitable for the majority of people. Instead, begin by doing something extra every day that you have not done recently. This could be as simple as a 20 minute walk. You could join a sports club, or go to the gym. Whatever you enjoy.

The next area is correct nutrition. It is as simple as decreasing the number of calories you consume each day. Start by reducing alcohol consumption, or eating one less take-away meal each week. Eat fresh fruits, meats and veggies.

And now for the final thought. Integrating a healthy food intake and physical movement into your daily routine will prime your body for weight loss by encouraging a calorie deficit. It is not rocket science. You need to find something that you can adhere to in order to make big sustainable results. - 17273
