You deserve to have a great body this year! And you can do it. There are all kinds of ways for you to do this and the best thing to do is to research and decide on which way is the best way for you to get to your goal. The tips found here are proven to help you get the body you deserve so by following them, you will achieve your goals.
First, make out a journal of the time frame that you want to lose the weight in and the amount of weight you want to lose. Next, make it a point of keeping a record of your daily success or non success. This will help you see where you are going wrong and right.
You might want to check with your physician and have some lab work done to see where you may be low or high and this too might play into what you do to lose weight. For example if your cholesterol is high, then you can be advised what foods to cut out. Blood work is an indication of what's going on inside your body.
Let's now look at three good tips to help you get the body you deserve.
1. Limit carbohydrate intake.
Carbohydrates provide energy and you do need them. But try to cut out the excess breads and things that have a high fat content. Eat lots of leafy green vegetables. These will fill you up and are a great lean source of carbohydrates. For example, if you are used to eating a bagel every morning change it to an egg. Eggs are protein and will not add fat to your body like a bagel will.
2. Drink lots and lots of water.
We are primarily made up of water but by drinking lots of it you will keep your system flushed of toxins. It is important to drink at least 8-10 glasses of water a day. You may have to go to the bathroom a lot but it will be worth it.
3. Add or maintain an activity.
Whether it be walking, biking, going to the gym or working out in front of your Wii, perform some activity at least four times a week for at least 20 minutes. Find or do something you enjoy. You don't want to be an activity that is something you dread.
In addition to the above, get plenty of sleep (7-8 hours), limit alcohol intake and don't overeat. Eat small portions of food for your meals. If you follow these tips you will get the body you deserve for this year and enjoy the process of losing weight along the way.
