Five Ways to Start Losing Weight

http://weightloss-information.50webs.com/

Some people find it hard to stick to diets and consistently fail to
lose weight. They try nearly every kind of new dieting idea that comes
along hoping that one of them would finally work, but the miracle
never happens. Naturally, these people tend to overlook their own
mistakes and fail to understand what prevents them from losing weight.
The human brain displays a remarkable ability of ignoring the things
it does not want to face, so it's not hard to understand why some
people eat all manner of things and still claim they haven't touched
anything but salad for a whole week.

But there are ways of working around these problems and if you don't
want to become one of these people, then you should stick to these
pointers. Their purpose is to make eating a conscious act in order to
avoid giving in to compulsions and temptations. The easiest thing to
do is to carry around a notebook and a pen and to write down
everything you eat. And I mean every little thing. Have you finished
that half a slice of pizza that your partner couldn't eat anymore?
Write it down. At the end of the day look over the list and you'll be
surprised at how many things you actually eat on a regular basis.

Since eating and drinking are, for the most part, acts that bypass
rational thinking you should try to bring them out of the twilight
zone. So every time you reach out for a drink or some food, stop and
ask yourself "Why am I doing this?". You may be thirsty, hungry,
bored, lonely, depressed, tired or stressed, but out of this list of
reasons only thirst and hunger are legitimate. Put the bottle down if
you're not thirsty. Put the food back on the shelf or on the table if
you're not hungry. Do you crave sweets because you're tired? Get some
sleep instead. Do you feel the need to eat because you're lonely and
depressed? Go to the cinema or visit a friend. Read a book, watch a
movie or listen to some music. There are options.

Never starve yourself. This is one of the big mistakes in dieting.
Unless you have enough willpower to qualify for Nietzsche's Overman
status you will break down sooner or later and eat the first thing
that you can get your hands on. Such as snacks or fast food.
Starvation also makes the body go into power save mode by limiting
your energy levels and hanging on to the existing fat. The body makes
no difference between dieting and actual starvation and will behave as
if in danger. Therefore you must eat three meals a day, plus snacks
consisting of fruit and vegetables. This is the best way to lose
weight.

Don't try to banish your favorite foods completely because you will
only sap your own willingness to stick to a diet. The key to dieting
is moderation, not denial. Do you like ice cream? Well, have a couple
of spoonfuls of ice cream every Sunday. Take a break from whatever it
is you're doing and enjoy this special treat. Don't feel like you're
cheating on the diet and keep any guilt pangs away. You're just
dieting, not preparing for admission to a convent or monastery. So
have a bit of forbidden food every five days or so and enjoy the
moment.

And, of course, you must exercise. If you're not used to exercising
and are a bit scared of all the effort and sweating, then start small.
There's no need to rush into hour-long training sessions. Five minutes
per day will do for starters. Get a treadmill and a pair of dumbbells
and make your own schedule. Two minutes and a half of running and two
minutes and half of curls. Every week increase the time spent
exercising by another five minutes and add new exercises. Your goal
should be to spend at least 30 minutes every day working out your
body. Sixty minutes is even better, but it will come in time. It's OK
to start small.
