five ways to reach a healthy wight
When it comes to reaching and maintaining a healthy weight, dieting is never the way to go. Diets are tempory eatting plans, there for can only give you tempory results. This is how "yo-yo dieting" happens. Yo-Yo dieting is basically when you diet and lose a load of wieght, you then stop your diet and gain it all back, then you repeat over and over again becoming a yo-yo dieter.
The only way to avoid this is to create a new normal, its that simple.
Weight loss is most successful if you change your habbits, out with the old and in with the new!
I have five helpful tips to banish your old unheathly ways and bring you a new healthy ones.
Exercise
A regular routine however light or intense burns calories and tone up. This will make you feel amazing both inside and out and also keeps the weight off.
It can be as simple as walking to school or cleaning around the house.
Exercise dvds are amazing for me because i get into it more when people help me. You could get friends together and workout as a group and have fun while doing it. The important thing is, dont see exercise as a chore, the more you do it the better it is, promise.
Watch your portions
The more you eat the more calories you intake, so choose smaller portions, if your at a reasturant, and say you want a side of chips, share them with whoevers with you. You can still have your chips and its less calories. Try replace your fizzy drinks with water or milk too. There is so much sugar in fizzy drinks its just not worth it! I saw on tv once that if you have one can of energy juice, you would have to do lunges for two hours just to burn off the calories!
Reduce tv time
The amount of time people sat on there butts watching tv or looking at the computer is the reason for the low amount of exerice we get now-a-days.
Try reducing the amount of time you watch tv by one hours, and every month, try take another hour off. Its the best way to do it i think. Also, instead of skyping your frineds from your bedroom, go out and do things with them, not only will you bond with your friends you could lose wieght while doing it!
Get your 5-a-day!
Fruit and veg is needed to run a healthy body, thats a fact. Not only are they packed full of vitamins and mineral, they also give us viber. Viber is amazing from running a healthy digestive system but also fills us up. Filling up on fruit rather than say, sweets makes us less likey to overeat, high-cal foods give us a short buzz of energy. Ever eaten a mcdonalds and then say a hour later been really hungry for more?
Dont miss breakfast
I never ate beakfast before, sometimes i skipped lunch too. This was so unhealthy and bad for my body. I can remember almost passing out at school becuase i wasnt eatting. The fact is, your most likely going to gain weight by doing this, think about it, you eat something at 8pm, sleep until 7am, thats 11/12 hours your body hasnt been fed. If you skip breakfast that goes up to say 18 hours. can i just say, your poor body!
Fun fact skipping breakfast is what sumo wrestlers do to help gain weight and store fat.. put you off skipping now?
All of these together will help you so much when it comes to losing weight and keeping it off, something to remember is weight doesnt disapear over night. It will take time, so dont be put off if results dont show at first
Kisses xoxo
