Tips and tricks
Below is a list of some of the most common and effective weight loss tips that I use in my daily life to help me get in better shape than I was before, and help me lose weight faster and more consistently. I hope these things will help you too.
Lose water weight, not fat. Wash away the salt and fats that build up on your waist. Eat less sugar! Take in fewer calories. Be more strategic about what you eat. Don't skip meals. Work out with a trainer or personal trainer to determine what it's going to take for you to achieve your goals. Stick to an exercise regiment. The good news is, there are plenty of ways to increase weight loss without starving yourself. Here are just a few choices for those who want to change their body more than ever.
1. Drink 50% as much water as possible every day.
If you have diabetes, make sure to check your blood and urine levels regularly. It keeps your heart from pounding and helps prevent them from fibrillation. Water adds flavor to food and also prevents hunger pangs. By drinking at least 6 quarts (3 Liters) of fluid daily, you are able to stay hydrated. Most people under-drink on an empty stomach and they can get very thirsty and thirsty too. So drink a lot of fluids all day. You'll feel like it's an emergency if you don't. Water is a great way to cool the system and soothe muscles and joints that sore, stiff, and painful after a long workout — especially when done frequently.
2. Use ice packs daily.
The best ice pack is one made with high protein powders such as whey protein, eggs, tofu, chicken, pork, fish, etc. They contain protein; they help keep your digestive system functioning well and help relieve muscle aches and cramps. Try mixing different foods together. For example, add tuna chunks or peanut butter to cereal, yogurt, cream, salads, etc. Mix different condiments together or do this regularly as a weekly or monthly routine. Some helpful ideas include adding fresh fruits to soups and stews, mixing eggs into smoothies, and mixing different spices into your favorite savory dishes. There's nothing quite like adding ingredients to your recipes!
3. Change your diet.
If you are having trouble losing weight because it's hard or you're tired or hungry, try changing your eating habits. These can be a bit difficult because "if only" isn't easy to do. But it takes effort and time, and changes can sometimes seem scary. Before starting any drastic change to your diet, keep all of the following points in mind;
Be mindful of your pantry. Choose healthy items more than sugary packaged foods. Watch out for junk food. Keep your fork handy and spoon instead of spatula. Look at pictures of your favourite spots and find a spot you enjoy eating and avoid the others. Find healthier alternatives to regular food or sugary options as well. Ask your doctors about trying alternative medicine and herbal supplements. Do whatever it takes to keep a positive attitude, because it could mean you do this for years. To keep your appetite under control, work out regularly and aim for a total diet that has no added sugars, artificial juices, salt, and other additives. Remember, healthy eating habits will keep you feeling satisfied and full longer. Your body will thank you for sticking this route!
4. Exercise more
If you are unhappy with how much you exercise, change your workouts to something new! Exercising releases endorphins in your brains that make you feel good. When exercising, you should focus mainly on the movements — that is, push your body to burn more calories than you burn when sitting down, walking, running, etc. This calorie deficit is called burning and burning more calories keeps your body energized. As you burn more calories, it makes your metabolism higher and then burns more calories than it does when you sit down. After you burn more calories during exercise, your body stores them. That means, when you stop burning out the extra calories you put on your plate. That's why you get tired and you need a break every once in a while, but you don't miss out when you burn more calories.
5. Get into a better mood for breakfast and dinner.
A balanced diet helps improve digestion and help you maintain energy levels. Breakfast, however, is where you start to notice results. With proper breakfast, your liver produces proteins, thus improving immunity. Blood circulation continues throughout the body, which leads to improved circulation and detoxification by means of increasing the size of cells. Research has shown that proper dietary intake of certain nutrients can improve the immune system, thus reducing your risk for infection. Having adequate vitamin D helps improve digestion, skin, lymph system, eyes, and so on. Vitamin K promotes bone health. Many studies suggest that women with a low estrogen level have smaller breast and bone size, and therefore, lower risk for fractures and other diseases. Iron, in particular iron-rich meats like meat, poultry, red meat, and seafood, regulates cardiovascular system functions and improves overall health; its deficiency causes symptoms like heart palpitations, fatigue, and irritability.
Vitamin C can boost the strength of the skin, as well as aid in joint healing. Good sources of vitamin A are green vegetables, citrus fruit and leafy greens. Vitamin E stimulates anti-oxidants and helps protect the nervous system. A study conducted by McMaster University showed that a 100-gram serving of whole grains such as rice provides 94.7 percent of the recommended RDI for vitamin E, yet the amount received remains low. The researchers hypothesized that vitamin E improves health and reduces the risk of developing cancer.
Consuming vitamin B12 protects against dementia and Parkinson's disease. Research suggests that women with a low B-complex vitamin B12 level have abnormal brain cell development and poorer cognitive function. In their study published in the British journal BMC Medicine, researchers showed that vitamin B12 deficiency reduces the survival rate of male mice implanted with human cerebrovascular endothelial cells and significantly impairs brain growth.
However, there is not enough data to say that vitamin B12 deficiency is associated with a wide variety of negative outcomes.
6. Think about it
. The more you think about a goal, the harder you will become determined to reach it. Even though you may not see immediate results right away, when you start thinking about a goal, you open yourself up to failure and setbacks. Thinking about failures is a major part of overcoming obstacles. Failure can be discouraging, frustrating, and even demeaning.
Instead of being discouraged and give up, consider your next steps. Break through your fear and go for it. Fail is often necessary — but failing alone doesn't guarantee success. Success comes from achieving your goals, and failing with them is never that success. All the same, don't let failures discourage you or drive you away, and don't let success distract you from living and working towards your dreams. Go forward and continue trying to accomplish your goals.
