-
Get off to a
strong start
Recent research has found that dieters who lost weight quickly lost
more total weight and kept off more weight long-term.
-
Make your home a
safe haven
There are so many high calorie, high fat foods available in our
society-fill your home with healthy, low-fat options. Try having fresh
fruit on the counter, or a huge ready to eat fruit salad in the
refrigerator.
-
Make a plan
Just like a “to-do list” a plan for your meals and exercise each day
will help you in weight loss.
-
More is Better
Stay full on low-calorie and low-fat foods. This will reduce the
amount of snacking throughout the day, fill you up for fewer calories,
and help reduce overeating.
-
Target your
“easy wins”
Pin point simple substitutions in your current diet that you can
modify. These are often the easiest way to cut calories. For instance,
drinking a diet soda instead of a regular soda every day will save you
15 or more pounds a year.
-
Keep moving!
Do physical activity each day. Every bit counts, 5 minutes or 50
minutes, it all adds up!
-
Track your
progress
Keep records of what you eat and how much exercise you do. This will
help you stay accountable to your plans, reinforce your success, and
give you feedback for new plans.
-
Drink fluids
Stay hydrated! Make sure you drink at least eight 8 oz. glasses of
water a day! This helps replenish the water your body loses while you
are losing weight.
-
Find a buddy
Research shows that people are more successful when they lose weight
with a friend or a group.
