Understanding Weight Loss
Its time to get on top of weight loss. There are so many conflicting approaches out there, so no wonder so many people (probably yourself included) is confused about how to shed that weight for good. Well, lets go through some basic ideas behind weight loss and how begin getting in shape NOW.
The first problem is the dieting industry. Have you tried every diet under the sun with no avail? If thats you (and I know there are plenty of people falling under this category), then do yourself a favour and do not try another one. They are all the same and will all yield the same result - sudden weight loss and then rapid weight gain thereafter.
Exercise machines advertised on TV are practically all the same - promise a lot yet deliver very little. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. These machines are absolutely no exception to the rule. Unfortunately they play of peoples misunderstanding of how to tone, shape and sculpt the body. By performing a certain motion, this does not necessarily yield the desired result.
Oh and a quick mention on supplements. Supplements can be of great value, but if you havent got a sound exercise and nutritional foundation, they are a waste of time and money for long-term success.
Okay so now that I've knocked out all the hype and bogus products on the market...what do you do? Change your lifestyle!
To begin with, we need to do that thing that we all dread...exercise. Oh yes, it is an amazing thing if performed correctly. It will burn energy and really help you along in your attempts.
Please do not think that I am in anyway suggesting to dedicate your life to exercise. This is definitely not a long-term solution. We need to focus on something that is sustainable. So, you could try hiking with a friend or going for a jog in the morning before work. Find something that you like doing, rather than something that is a chore.
Dietary intake, as I am sure you would be aware, is very important. So, watch what you eat. You know the drill, eat a variety of foods that are healthy. But to lose weight, you just need to take in less kilojoules than what you presently consume. So try making your portion sizes smaller as a start.
And now for the final thought. Integrating a healthy food intake and physical movement into your daily routine will prime your body for weight loss by encouraging a calorie deficit. It is not rocket science. You need to find something that you can adhere to in order to make big sustainable results. - 17268
