What You Need To Know About Weight Loss At Home

By Ron Cripps

You have landed that dream job interview and now you need to wear that old dress or suit but realize it does not fit you need to take action and lose weight fast. Reducing weight too suddenly is not healthy and could harm your body. Such things as a loss of muscle tone or worse yet heart disease and problems with other internal organs can result from fad diets, miracle pills and extreme fasting. Here are some tips to safely shed that weight fast from home.

Since losing weight is in simple terms expending more calories than you consume, figure out exactly what you are eating. Keep a written log of every tasty morsel, for a minimum of a week. Don't cheat. Short cuts on this only harm you. Now with the help of sources like mypyramidtracker.gov figure out the calories in what you have eaten over that time.

Now that you know the calories you consume, start reducing. This can be as straightforward as cutting down on portion sizes. Serve sizes are generally too generous both at home and in restaurants. There are a lot of other easy cuts that you can make that don't extensively modify what you eat and your lifestyle. These include salad dressing, butter, candies, as well as juice or soda. Salad dressing is the prevalent source of calories on most dinner tables! Getting used to the delicious taste of a salad with a pinch of lemon juice makes a large difference to your diet. Also note that empty calories such as sugars and white breads (carbohydrates) are the earliest things to reduce. These can with no trouble at all be substituted with sugar substitutes and whole grain breads.

But I really like the side dish? This part of the meal is often a minefield of bad food choices including French Fries, macaroni and cheese and potato salad. Replace these items with healthy alternatives such as steamed vegetables, cottage cheese, or salad (minus dressing.)

Build up some muscle to increase muscle mass and metabolism using exercise. That leads to burning extra calories even when sitting still. Aerobic exercise is the best for calorie and fat burning. Many experts say to do aerobic activity for 30 minutes a day 3-5 days a week. Hog wash! Find an activity you can sustain for seven days each week, and forever and one that you enjoy..
