| You won't loose two stone, that's 28 pounds. The most you can loose in this time, healthily, is six pounds. Just cut back on sugar, fat and carbohydrates, and do an hour of exercise daily. Eat litte and often, eat lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, and eat slowly. Eat like a child - children eat only when they are hungry and leave what they do not want. If you stick to a healthy lifestyle, the pounds should drop off, but sadly not in time for Christmas. |

| I lost 37 pounds in a few weeks. I saw 2 products on Oprah that were offering a free trial & decided to try them. I figured Oprah probably wouldn't have any scam products on her show.Read my story here: http://www.heidisweightloss.com/index.php?sub=answers |

| Tip #1 Decide Why You Want To Loose Weight.To look good? Fit back into some of your favorite clothes? To feel healthier? What ever the reasons keep these in mind at all times. Write them down and put them in a place were you can see them every day. Review them once in a while to remind yourself of the cool reasons you started this.Tip #2 Keep a food journalMake a Diet Journal - Write down everything you eat throughout the day no matter how small it is. This will help you stay on your diet in the long run. You can also use your journal to track your weight loss, your feelings and so much more. You can really get creative here. The main point is to write it down. It will keep you involved and motivated.Tip #3 Drink More WaterDrink More Water - Looking for a way to loose weight quick? then Drink more water. I know this diet tips is so basic, but it is because it flat out works. 6-8 glasses of water every day may sound like a lot, but spread out over the course of the day it isn’t. Drinking water before meals will also make you seem fuller and prevent you from overeating.Tip #4 Don’t Skip BreakfastAlways eat breakfast. This will kick-start your metabolism for the day and also help you loose weight quick. It’s been slow all night so you want to give it a boost. If you don’t have time in the mornings then something as simple as a banana and yoghurt will do the trick. A firm banana will provide a slow release of energy throughout the morning so you shouldn’t feel the need for a mid-morning snack.Tip #5 Consider Fruits and VegetablesAdding additional fruit and vegetables to your diet provides you with plenty of energy giving vitamins and minerals. In addition to this, they provide extra fiber plus fluid to help speed the movement of food through your bowels. I have found Smoothies to be a great way to quickly add several servings of fresh fruit to my daily menu.Tip #6 Learn proper portion sizesLearn proper portion sizes. Most people do not realize what a half a cup of ice-cream looks like; therefore, when they dish up what they believe to be a 350 calorie serving, more than likely they’ve dished at least a cup and the calories are now 700. Not understanding portion sizes will sabotage your weight loss diet efforts. Again, food labels are your source here. Use measuring cups and count out things like crackers to see just how much you should really be eating. For portion sizes that are measured in ounces, a good rule of thumb is that a fist is about the size of a serving of meat.Tip #7 Bring your lunch.While it may be tempting to grab something from a fast food restaurant for a quick lunch, bringing your own lunch that is healthy and low fat is even better. Pack a healthy lunch and throw in some healthy snacks as well. If you bring raw veggies or low fat cheese with whole wheat crackers, you can snack on them between meals. A handful of almonds can be a quick pick me up when late afternoon rolls around and you start to feel fatigued.Tip # 8 Exercise for at least 30 minutes a dayIt’s easy to make the excuse that you don’t have time to exercise but set aside at least 30 minutes a day for some activity. Exercise can range from sports to running to yoga. There are a variety of fun and simple ways to get your exercise time in without necessarily going to the gym.Tip #9 Choose walking over driving whenever it makes senseWhen given the opportunity to walk to the store or to run errands, choose walking over driving. That extra travel time can be seen as being put towards your exercise time. This is also the environmentally friendly alternative.Tip #10 Be realisticIf you follow the above guidelines you can eat what you want and loose weight quick.Keep in mind once you are doing the above your weight will go down quicker than with any fad diet.Don’t starve yourself this won’t help.Crash dieting is unhealthy and the pounds soon come back on.Stay with the above and you will soon loose weight fast and reach the weight you desire in a healthy manner. |
