Tips To Lose Weight

We all know that losing weight is not really that much fun.  Let’s see, we won’t eat as much as we want and we’ll exercise regularly.  That’s the mantra but I’ve got 4 easy ways to lose weight for you today.

•    You can’t really keep track of your calorie intake if you don’t count them religiously.  So you have to read food labels carefully.  In order to lose weight naturally you need to be able to wisely compare labels on the foods you are buying.  How much fat in each serving?  Calories?  This is basic but you must get into this habit.  It’s easy.

•    Drink a lot of water.  Even if you bloat easily, water will reduce the problem.  Get a water bottle and carry it around with you.  Remember Sam from the TV show Cheers; he always had a bottle of water in his hand.  Replace sodas with water and you’ll cut out hundreds of calories a day depending on how many sodas you drink.  Don’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink water.  This is one of the really easy ways to lose weight.

•    Start really measuring your food before you eat.  You will probably come to the realization that you are eating way more than the standard serving.  If the label defines the standard serving as being so many calories then that’s the serving you need to eat.  You need to change your mindset to smaller portions and you will lose weight naturally.

•    If you can walk for 20 minutes a day you will feel better and burn calories.  Start out slow and speed up as you become more fit.  You’ll be surprised at how fast you are walking this 20 minutes and getting to certain landmarks faster.

These are easy ways to lose weight and they are relatively painless.  Lose weight naturally can be fun and isn’t that difficult.
