Tips for Losing the Most Stubborn Pounds
Here are several tips that will help you shed that unwanted
weight and create a more healthy and attractive figure.
Increase Protein
When you diet, keep your protein at 55% of your calories. This
will help you maintain your muscle mass and keep your metabolism
elevated. Eat low-fat protein sources like chicken breasts, egg
whites, and fish.
Eat 75%
When you sit down to eat, look at your plate and leave 25%,
eating only 75% and thereby cutting as many as 300 calories from
every meal.
Lift Some Weights
Do a small 20 minute program of lifting weights twice a week
along with cardiovascular exercise to build up muscle strength,
replacing fat with muscle.
Move Around More
An obese person spends an average of 2.5 hours more daily in a
chair than a thin person. Try walking back and forth while
talking on a cell or cordless phone, use the steps rather than
the elevator, and park farther away and walk to your destination.
Weigh Yourself Monthly
Don't weigh yourself too often and become discouraged by the up
and down variations from day to day. Weigh yourself at the same
time every month to better see long term trends in your weight.
Buy A Pedometer
This is a very accurate way to make sure you take at least
10,000 steps a day to help you reach and maintain your weight
loss goals as you walk to do your various errands and activities.
Have
Your Thyroid Tested
If you are adding weight, have joint and muscle aches, have
unusual facial puffiness, or are unusually tired, this could be
the sign of a sluggish thyroid slowing down your metabolism,
causing weight gain. This can be remedied by taking the right
medications.
Reduce Stress
When you are stressed, your adrenal gland generates the cortisol
stress hormone, which increases your appetite and triggers
release of the insulin fat-storing hormone, causing your body to
hold onto fat, even if you are eating less.
But often, stress makes you overeat comfort foods like
chocolate, ice cream, potato chips, cookies and donuts. Those
high carbohydrate goodies raise your serotonin levels, boosting
your mood in a form of self-medication. Salty snacks raise blood
pressure, which also raises cortisol levels, contributing to a
vicious cycle of overeating.
To break this cycle, you should set a fixed eating schedule and
stick to it. Schedule your three meals and three snacks
throughout the day so you always have something to eat every
three or four hours. Savor every bite instead of gulping down
too much before your brain tells you that you are full. Regular
exercise and relaxing meditation can also relieve your stress.
