Did you know that hypnosis can help you to eat less sugar? Eating sugary foods is a type of behaviour that you may have gotten used to over many years. With the help of hypnosis, you can re-programme your subconscious mind so that you have a different attitude when it comes to sugary snacks.
Eating too much sugar is one of the main causes of weight gain. Sugar is pure calories and provides almost no other nutrients. When you take in excess calories, your body processes them into fats, resulting in an increase in body fat.
Sugars are broken down by the body very quickly and turned into glucose. This causes your blood glucose levels to rise massively. While this gives you a short burst of energy, it will not be long until you need more. As a result, it’s likely that you’ll reach out for another sugary snack like a cookie, and you’ll keep eating because those sugary snacks are being processed into glucose so quickly.
Numerous experts suggest that in order to lose weight we need to decrease our sugar intake and eat foods that provide us with other nutrients as well as sugar. In order to solve your problem with sugar consumption, you need to focus on eating foods with a low or medium Glycaemic index value. These foods satisfy your body better and provide energy for longer.
The solution is obvious, but it’s easier said than done. If you’ve been addicted to grazing on sugary snacks for a long time, it won’t be easy to give them up straight away.
Adopting new habits is something that the subconscious mind does not like. When your repeat similar behaviours over a long period of time, your subconscious accepts them as the norm. If you try to break these patterns, you will probably feel very agitated as your subconscious will not be too pleased.
Luckily though, it is possible to communicate with the subconscious through hypnosis. When in a deeply relaxed state, the subconscious mind is open to suggestions. In this state, it can be taught a new perspective about sugary foods which will you give you the urge to eat them less.
Suggestions that could be given to your subconscious include things like “You can enjoy sweet foods more if you eat less of them” and “you are forgetting to eat sweet snacks”.
These suggestions give the subconscious a new perspective and cause your usual urges for sweet and sugary foods to fade away. Thanks to this encouragement from hypnotic suggestions, your desire will fade away and it’s likely that you will find yourself adopting healthier eating habits.
As your habits change and become healthier, it will give reinforcement to the new perspective of your subconscious and it will now accept your healthier eating habits as the norm.
As you can see, hypnosis can help take away a lot of unconscious resistance that occurs when you try to make behavioural changes. Some people find that hypnosis is the catalyst for change after months or years of unsuccessful dieting.

I Need to Lose Weight without Feeling Hungry
“I need to lose weight but I’m sick of feeling hungry all the time,” is a common statement made by individuals who follow fly-by-night diets. If your diet leaves your stomach rumbling every hour on the hour, it’s time to make a change. I used to think that losing weight meant starving. It took me a while to accept the fact that I could actually eat heartily and still drop weight.
The time I spent starving in the name of losing weight was miserable. When I did manage to shed a few pounds, I would gain it all back in a matter of weeks. Sometimes I’d even gain a few extra pounds. Talk about depressing!
What I learned through years of research (and trial and error) is that when you follow a healthy eating plan, you can chow down until you’re full, and still see amazing weight loss results.
There’s nothing more dismal than dealing with hunger pangs all day. If your meals aren’t satisfying you, this is exactly what’s going to happen. Here are some tricks to make your meals more filling:

What I learned through years of research (and trial and error) is that when you follow a healthy eating plan, you can chow down until you’re full, and still see amazing weight loss results.
What Are Healthy Foods?
Healthy foods are not created in a factory of processed to death. If the food is dried, canned, frozen or filled with ingredients you can’t pronounce, stay away from it. Examples of healthy foods include fresh fish, naturally raised meats, legumes, seeds, organic poultry, organic whole eggs, raw nuts, and fresh fruit and vegetables.How to Make Healthy Meals More Filling
There’s nothing more dismal than dealing with hunger pangs all day. If your meals aren’t satisfying you, this is exactly what’s going to happen. Here are some tricks to make your meals more filling:
- Add a source of quality protein and a source healthy fat (yes, fat) to each of your meals. Doing this makes meals more satiating and curbs hunger. Sources of healthy protein include natural meats, organic whole eggs, organic poultry and fish. Sources of healthy fat include avocados, fish, beans, raw nuts, coconut oil and olive oil.
- Load your plate with veggies. It helps to divide your plate into three sections and fill the larger section with veggies. Leave the other two sections for meat and other foods. Veggies are full of fiber, so they expand in the stomach, digest slowly and keep you full longer.
- Drink a glass of water before each meal and throughout the day. This will help you feel full faster and reduce hunger.
Examples of Healthy, Filling Meals and Snacks
- Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs, 1/3 cup of oatmeal with cinnamon and a small pear.
- Snack: 1 medium apple, 1 cup of cucumber slices and 1 oz of raw nuts.
- Lunch: 4 oz ground turkey, 1/2 cup of cooked brown rice, 8 oz carrot sticks, and a small green salad with vinegar and olive oil dressing.
- Snack: 2 tablespoons of almond butter, 2 slices of rye crisp bread and 8 oz of celery sticks.
- Dinner: 5 oz broiled halibut steak, 1/2 cup of green beans sautéed in garlic, small baked sweet potato and a small green salad with apple cider vinegar and olive oil dressing.

How to Eat Great and Lose Weight
Snacking on dried out rice cakes and wilted lettuce leaves is no way to spend your mealtimes. You don’t have to eat bland, boring foods just to trim up. It is possible to eat great and lose weight all at the same time. If you choose quality foods and have a willingness to try new things, you can get down on delicious meals and shed pounds too.
You can’t possibly lose weight if the foods you use to prepare you meals are unhealthy and loaded with calories. When you avoid processed nonsense and stick with fresh ingredients, you can’t go wrong. Anything boxed, frozen, jugged or canned is considered processed and has no place in a healthy diet.
Foods that should be staples in your healthy meal plans include fresh fish, naturally raised meats, organic poultry, organic whole eggs, raw nuts, fresh herbs, and fresh fruits and vegetables. Natural foods are better for you because they are low in calories and filled with plenty of nutrients your body can use.
Also, natural foods aren’t loaded with a laundry list of additives that contribute to weight gain, diabetes, cancer, hypertension and other health problems.
When you come across recipes that have unhealthy ingredients, simply swap the bad ingredients out for healthier ones. For instance, if a recipe calls for milk, you can replace this ingredient with coconut or almond milk. Also, don’t be afraid to switch out spices and seasonings to add a new flavor to a dish.
Vary your cooking methods to keep things fresh and give food a different taste. For instance, if you always broil your steak, try sautéing it, or covering it with olive oil and dropping it on the grill. All of these cooking methods are healthy and easy to master.
Healthy French Toast:
Baked Chicken a la Isabel (one of my creations)
Rub the spice and oil mixture under the skin of the chicken with your hands. Once the chicken is completely coated, place it breast side down in a glass baking pan and pop it in the oven. Let the chicken cook for 1 to 2 hours until it’s done.
There’s nothing boring or tasteless about the above recipes. If you’re creative and are willing to experiment with new recipes, you can chow down like this everyday and look fantastic doing it.
Your dream of permanent weight loss is just a reach away. Watch this video to find out how The Diet Solution Program can help you eat great and lose weight.

Experiment with Recipes, Flavors and Cooking Methods
I love grilled chicken, but if I had to eat if every day, I’d go bananas—I imagine you would too. Free yourself from the bondage of humdrum, tasteless meals by experimenting with recipes. Thumb through cookbooks, surf the Internet and use your imagination to whip up meals you can’t wait to sink your teeth into.When you come across recipes that have unhealthy ingredients, simply swap the bad ingredients out for healthier ones.

Foods That Make Up A Mediterranean Diet
Reading more about foods that make up a mediterranean diet or perhaps its resources will more likely place you in a more informed position to either take further steps or research a little more. This will help you establish greater confidence about foods that make up a mediterranean diet before you make any definite decisions.
Most people have heard of the new popular book out right now that explores the reasons why 'French women don't get fat'. It's certainly not for lack of eating delicious food! The same might be said for the Mediterranean diet - the traditional foods that are prepared and eaten around the Mediterranean region of Europe. The people there may not be model-skinny, but here are few if any seriously overweight people who live the traditional lifestyle and eat traditional Mediterranean foods.
It's all based on great tasting, natural food. Forget what you think you know about Italian cuisine, for a start -yes, pizza and pasta do figure heavily in some regions of Italy, but not in the Mediterranean region. By the sea, people subsist on what they can catch from the sea and grow in their gardens. The result is natural, delicious food that is a pleasure to prepare and an even greater pleasure to eat.
Usually, we all naturally think of tomatoes - and it's a fact that tomatoes grown in the Mediterranean sun are far superior to any that we might find elsewhere in the world. The Mediterranean basin is the home of the tomato, and the place where it grows best. But that's just the beginning. There are a variety of other vegetables that the Mediterranean kitchen abounds with, and many of them happen to be dark green, red or orange in color. Believe it or not, that does matter - quite a bit, in fact. Studies have shown that dark green, red and orange vegetables have a higher concentration of anti-oxidants, making them powerful cancer fighters. Also, these tend to be more flavorful and satisfying than many other vegetables - especially when prepared according to Mediterranean recipes - and that means that you are more likely to fill up on vegetables. And that, of course, is one of the best things you can possibly do for maximum weight loss.
It's true that meat is part of the diet, but it's served rather sparingly. Fish is much more common, given that the Mediterranean life is oriented around the sea. Fish are grilled, or prepared as part of various cooked dishes that also contain vegetables. Forget the batter-covered English style fish and chips, though - Europeans living in the Mediterranean regions have much better things to do with their fish, with greatly superior results! Fish is often quite low in fat, as well as being an excellent source of protein. Even when the fat content is a little higher, however, don't worry - fat that comes from fish is 'good' fat, healthy for your heart and bones.
Talking about 'good' fat, you can't get much better than olive oil for cooking, drizzling on salads, or as a condiment of sorts. Olive oil has none of the harmful effects that some oils have when they are heated - it's a good, clean oil that adds flavor, and if you're using good quality olive oil, a little goes a long way! Try to buy cold pressed extra virgin olive oil from Italy, Greece or Spain, or maybe from a lesser known olive oil producer such as Croatia or Albania. In all of these countries, olive groves that are sometimes up to a thousand years old continue to produce olives for eating and oil production. Olives and olive oil are as much a part of the culture as any other aspect of Mediterranean cuisine.
You may have noticed, the Mediterranean diet is not necessarily a low calorie one, though it certainly can be - you can adjust the calorie content without sacrificing taste, because natural ingredients make up so much of the diet. If you are interested in eating healthily but not necessarily in losing weight, you can add in some of the 'extras' - red wine, some cheese and home baked bread, or the occasional dessert. Even without those extras, though, the Mediterranean diet is easy to follow and stick to because it simply tastes great.
Given that you are not living in a Mediterranean country (in which case you would probably be eating like this already), find a quality source of tomatoes, peppers and other vegetables in your community. Try to find Greek or Italian grocery store, too, for more obscure ingredients. The Mediterranean diet is good eating for life, as well as being relatively easy and fun to follow.

Foods to Avoid in Your Healthy Meal Plans to Lose Weight
People get excited about a lot of things, but I have never in my life met anyone who’s thrilled about being overweight. I have however, met folks who are sick of the up and down rollercoaster of so-called healthy meal plans to lose weight. Rather than deal with more dieting disappointments, some of these people conclude that living “large” is simply in the cards for them.
Throwing your hands up in defeat and deciding to spend the rest of your days (unhappily) overweight is no way to live. A decision like this can beat your self-esteem into the ground and shave years off of your life. C’mon, you owe yourself and your loved ones so much more than this.
There’s no magic formula to losing weight – if there were, everybody and their mama would be slim. The best way to achieve successful weight loss results is to know what types of foods to keep out of your diet.
Processed foods are cheap, convenient and easy to prepare. Unfortunately, these foods are bad for your health. Of course, you’d never know this by watching those hyped up television ads. Since manufacturers aren’t going to give you the dirty on the ingredients they use in processed foods, I’ll gladly do it for them.
Let’s start with trans fat. This ingredient lowers good cholesterol, raises bad cholesterol, and can increase your risk of cardiovascular disease. Considering heart disease is one of the leading killers of men and women, trans fat is one ingredient you want to steer clear of.
If you’re wondering where that double chin came from, the high fructose corn syrup used in some of your favorite processed foods may be partially to blame. This ingredient has been getting a lot of press lately because it is believed to be a major player in the rising obesity epidemic.
Don’t even get me started on the chemicals manufacturers use in processed foods. If I tried to name some of these chemicals, I’d be tongue tied for days. Besides, you’d probably think I was reading the label on a can of bug spray instead of the ingredients in your favorite microwavable meal.
The average person consumes about 150 pounds of sugar per year. When you think about the fact that sugar is in almost everything, it’s easy to eat tons of this stuff without even realizing it. So what’s the big deal? There isn’t enough time in the day for me to tell you about all the damage sugar can do to your health. However, I can give you a quick rundown.
Sugar contains nothing but empty calories. When you eat this stuff, a large portion of it gets stored in the body as fat. If your goal is to slim down, being heavy-handed with the sugar isn’t going to help. This is not even the worst of it. Sugar can also depress the immune system, feed cancer cells, contribute to heart disease, raise your risk of osteoporosis and make you look decrepit.
These chemical sweeteners can cause or contribute to a laundry list of neuropsychiatric disorders and chronic illnesses – depression, anxiety, migraines, mood changes, panic attacks, vertigo, memory loss, Alzheimer’s, brain tumors – should I go on? And if you think you’re going to shed a few pounds using artificial sweeteners, think again. These sweeteners stimulate your appetite and make you eat more food.
When you’ve tried diet after diet and not one of them delivers results, it can certainly make you want to give up. But you owe it to yourself and to your family to live the healthiest life possible. Processed foods, sugar and artificial sweeteners are the main culprits of weight gain. When you eliminate these foods from your diet, you greatly improve your chance of losing weight.
Make dieting disappointment a thing of the past. Let the Diet Solution Program arm you with the tools you need to create effective healthy meal plans to lose weight and live healthier.

Just Say “No” to Processed Foods

Send Sugar Packing
The average person consumes about 150 pounds of sugar per year. When you think about the fact that sugar is in almost everything, it’s easy to eat tons of this stuff without even realizing it. So what’s the big deal? There isn’t enough time in the day for me to tell you about all the damage sugar can do to your health. However, I can give you a quick rundown.

Sugar can also depress the immune system, feed cancer cells, contribute to heart disease, raise your risk of osteoporosis and make you look decrepit.
Give Artificial Sweeteners the Boot
Before you run out and stock your fridge with a bunch of those zero-calorie diet drinks, there’s something you should know. The artificial sweeteners used in diet drinks and other low-calorie products are lab-created. Yep. You heard me right – mixed up in a lab like something out of a Frankenstein movie.These chemical sweeteners can cause or contribute to a laundry list of neuropsychiatric disorders and chronic illnesses – depression, anxiety, migraines, mood changes, panic attacks, vertigo, memory loss, Alzheimer’s, brain tumors – should I go on? And if you think you’re going to shed a few pounds using artificial sweeteners, think again. These sweeteners stimulate your appetite and make you eat more food.

Changing Your Eating Desires Using Hypnosis
Here’s an experience you’re probably familiar with… You have a burning desire to lose weight and you’ve committed to a new diet, but chocolate bars and potato chips are now the foods you are craving the most, and the craving to eat these foods is stronger than it has ever been.
This is what makes it so hard to commit to a new diet. How can you maintain a healthy eating plan when the temptations to eat fatty foods are so strong?
This is where losing weight can be become such a struggle. With it being so difficult to fight off temptation, it becomes almost impossible to stick to a diet successfully. To add to this, the stress it puts you under makes the dieting idea seem like too much to handle. This makes you want to give up all together.
To conquer cravings successfully, it’s good to understand why they exist, and how you can go about eliminating them.
When you start a new diet and eliminate fatty foods, your body will not be used to it. If you’ve been eating unhealthily for a long time, your body will have gotten used to your eating patterns and will expect them to stay the same.
But it goes deeper than just a bodily craving – these eating patterns are also expected from you at a subconscious level. Your subconscious will have learned that your unhealthy eating patterns are normal, and thus it will resist if you try to make changes.
This is where dieting becomes too much for some people. Something deep within them is giving them such a strong urge to eat all the wrong things.
So, one of the secrets to losing weight successfully is to change your desires. It doesn’t matter how good of a diet plan or how much will-power you have, if you can fight off the desire to eat fatty foods, you won’t have much chance of being successful.
Imagine if the thought of eating vegetables gave you the same feeling that you currently get from the thought of eating a chocolate bar. Wouldn’t that make weight loss a whole lot easier?!
Well, this is the goal of hypnosis. The cravings to eat fatty foods usually have nothing to do with our conscious minds. Even though you know logically that eating fatty foods is a bad idea, you still have a very strong urge to do so.
This is because the craving starts on a subconscious level. By bypassing the conscious mind and communicating directly with the subconscious, hypnosis can help you break the desire to eat unhealthy foods.
By communicating with the subconscious, hypnosis can alter your inner desires. If like many people you have constant thoughts like “giving up fatty foods is hard”, it’s going to be very difficult to stick to a healthy diet plan. Hypnotic suggestions implant new ideas into your subconscious, such as “you are forgetting about your old eating habits” or “you have a strong urge to eat healthy foods”.
After constant repetition, your subconscious will begin to believe these suggestions and this will be reflected in your eating habits and desires.
If you have an internal struggle on the inside and you are constantly filled with doubts, it makes losing weight 100 times harder. Hypnosis can be the key to transforming unhealthy desires into healthy desires and making weight loss a whole lot easier.
Summary:
This is what makes it so hard to commit to a new diet. How can you maintain a healthy eating plan when the temptations to eat fatty foods are so strong?
This is where losing weight can be become such a struggle. With it being so difficult to fight off temptation, it becomes almost impossible to stick to a diet successfully.

Hypnotic suggestions implant new ideas into your subconscious, such as “you are forgetting about your old eating habits” or “you have a strong urge to eat healthy foods”.
After constant repetition, your subconscious will begin to believe these suggestions and this will be reflected in your eating habits and desires.
If you have an internal struggle on the inside and you are constantly filled with doubts, it makes losing weight 100 times harder. Hypnosis can be the key to transforming unhealthy desires into healthy desires and making weight loss a whole lot easier.
Summary:
- Your desires to eat fatty foods are based on deep unconscious habits
- Attempting to change your habits will be met by resistance from the subconscious mind
- Changing your desires is key to improving your chances of successful weight loss
- Hypnosis communicates with your subconscious and transforms negative desires into positive desires
Change Bad Eating Habits Easily With Weight Loss Hypnosis
Bad eating habits are a big cause of weight gain. Being as bad eating habits are ingrained in the subconscious, they can be very difficult to reverse. It is possible however to rewire our subconscious minds so that the body can learn healthier eating habits.
We all build habits into our lives to make life easier. Some habits are good, and some are bad. Whether good or bad, all habits are learned behaviours that eventually become ingrained deep in the subconscious.
Here is an example – when you are learning to drive, you have to take a lot of care and be cautious about everything you do. Checking your mirrors, indicating and using your brakes all require conscious thought and attention at first. After you drive more and more though, you no longer need to think about these actions and they become a subconscious habit.
This works the same for eating habits. If you began eating on the sofa regularly when you were younger, your subconscious would have learned that this behaviour is normal. Thus, from then on you would have a strong urge to eat every time you sit on the sofa.
The first step to reversing bad eating habits is to become aware of how habits work, and to identify the bad habits that you possess. When your try to change a habit, you will get a lot of resistance from your subconscious.
Here is an example – imagine if you met a new work colleague and they stretched out their arm to shake your hand. Now imagine that in response you simply looked at them but didn’t stretch your hand out in return. That would feel rather strange wouldn’t it? This would probably be the first time in your life that you have responded in this way, and therefore something wouldn’t feel right.
So, if you have been eating junk food on your sofa for years, and suddenly one night you are sat on your sofa without any food at hand, it would feel rather strange. Your subconscious would be used to you eating when sat watching TV, so would give you the urge to go grab yourself some food
If you are aware of your bad habits, you can use hypnosis to communicate directly with the subconscious mind to let it know that it’s OK for you not to eat junk food whilst you watch TV.
Because your bad habits are subconscious behaviour, you need to tackle them on a subconscious level. During hypnosis, the body goes into a deeply relaxed trance state where the subconscious mind becomes very open to suggestions.
It this state, your subconscious can be retrained and encouraged to find healthier and less harmful ways of satisfying your habits. Using hypnosis takes the anxiety and stress out of changing habits as it takes away the resistance you would naturally get from the subconscious mind.
Here is a short summary of what you need to know about changing bad habits:

- The first step to reversing bad habits is to become aware of them- make them conscious rather than unconscious. You could perhaps list them on paper.
- Your subconscious will resist your attempts to reverse bad habits.

Achieving Your Weight Loss Objectives Using Hypnosis
When trying to lose weight, it’s important to know where you are heading and why. You need to know how much weight you want to lose and how you’re going to go about losing it. When you have a plan and you have set some goals, hypnosis can take you one step close to achieving your objectives.
To lose weight successfully, you need to have a plan. You need a solid diet and/or exercising plan in place that you know you can stick to, and you need to be committed. Once these elements are in place, using hypnosis can be very powerful and speed up your weight loss dramatically.
Have a Plan
Trying to lose weight with no long term plan isn’t going to get you anywhere. Take some time to come up with a suitable diet plan. Seek help from a professional nutritionist if you need to.
The same goes for exercising. Decide how often you’re going to exercise every week and what form of exercise you will be doing.
Give yourself some time to decide on an eating and exercise plan. You should be thinking long term here. Come up with a plan that you know you can stick to for a long time. It’s very important that your plan is a long term plan so that you know what direction you are heading in the future.
Make A Commitment
When you have a plan in place, make a solid commitment to yourself. It takes a lot of time and effort to lose weight permanently. You’ll notice that I have stressed the importance of the long-term future in this article. You should be prepared to make a lifelong commitment, not just a 2 or 3 month commitment.
Set Realistic Goals
If you set yourself goals, make sure they are realistic. Goals should be measurable and attainable. For instance, “go swimming twice a week”, “walk for 30 minutes a day”.
Hypnosis for Weight Loss
When you have committed to a long term plan and set realistic goals, you’ve made a great leap towards achieving your weight loss objectives. The only missing piece of the puzzle is finding your inner motivation.
When you adopt a new diet and exercise plan, you will be eating new foods and working out your body in a way that you never have before. Because of this, it can often be hard to adapt to the changes without resorting back to your old ways.
This is where hypnosis can be so valuable. No matter how good an eating plan you have in place, if that inner voice in your head is not on your side, you will easily be lured into breaking your new healthy eating and exercise patterns.
Some famous studies have been conducted where as many as 90% of subjects lost more weight than dieters not using hypnosis, and were able to maintain their lost weight 2 years later.
Hypnosis helps to make that internal voice in your head more helpful and more persuasive. It can reduce the power and volume of the unhealthy voice so it doesn’t have a destructive effect.
By targeting your subconscious mind, hypnosis can weed out the self-sabotaging thought patterns in your head and replace them with powerful positive messages. This naturally gives you a deep drive and determination to stick to your long term health plans.

How to Lose Weight in a Week
Everyone needs a shortcut! It doesn’t matter what field you talk about, everyone’s looking for something that’ll get them to their goal faster. Weight loss is no different. Everyone’s looking for a ‘quick fix’ that’ll bring them back to their ideal body weight with the least amount of trouble and pain. But the bad news is that quick fixes don’t work in the long run. You may be satisfied by the short term results but crash diets don’t work when it comes to sustaining the weight you have lost because, let’s face it, they are impractical.
For losing weight and adopting a healthy lifestyle, you’ll probably have to make lifelong changes! Seems scary, doesn’t it but that’s the whole problem. People have redefined what’s normal. A McDonald’s upsize meal that has around 1200 calories is a norm. Let’s take this into perspective. 1200 calories probably account for around 50 – 60 % of your daily caloric input depending on your age, gender and body type. So, if you want to lose weight within a week, you need t to redefine what’s normal!
The bad news is that you can’t possibly expect to lose all the extra weight you carry within a week (Unless the extra weight is around 1 – 2 Kgs). After all, you didn’t gain all of that weight in a week so if you come to think of it, it’s simple mathematics. To lose 1 Kg of weight, you need to create a Caloric deficit of 3500 calories. This means that when your body consumes 3500 Calories less than what it is expending, you lose a Kilogram. So, if you go for a daily deficit of around 500 calories, you can lose 1 Kilogram in a week and kick start the process of weight loss. So, there’s the good news.
Now the next question is how to create a deficit of 500 calories each day. One way would be to starve yourself, but since we are aiming at healthy and sustainable weight loss, that is not an option. The healthy way in a nutshell would be, firstly, to stop eating foods with sugar altogether. Secondly, all processed white bread is off the table. Then comes the fat, all fatty foods are off the table. Dairy has many health benefits so you may go with low fat dairy products. Then comes the empty calories that we love to consume through sodas, soft drinks and juices. These things are banned as well. The replacements are fresh vegetables, some fresh fruits, lean meat (Fish, chicken etc – preferably roasted not fried). Also, you may have whole grains, unprocessed foods such as Oatmeal, brown rice and a small serving of nuts (They are high in healthy fats so don’t overeat them).
If such changes are made, you’ll see that you’ll automatically be consuming 25 – 45 % less calories. To further improve the deficit we have exercise! Healthy eating and exercise go hand in hand (just like peanut butter and jelly). If you want a good jump start and if you want to see some results within a week, go for aerobic exercises at least 5 times a week. Each session should be around an hour long and the intensity level should be moderate. Brisk walking, jogging, running, swimming, cycling would be ideal candidates to choose from. If you are not accustomed to working out or exercising daily, don’t over exert yourself. Over exertion may seem useful for the first few days but there are chances of injury, cramps and other physical problems.
If you are successful in altering your lifestyle in the mentioned ways, chances are that you’ll see some ‘measurable’ weight loss in 1 week’s time! But this doesn’t mean you go back to your old habits; continue with your routine and you will definitely start to see more results in your quest to lose weight.
