With fad diets and
fitness routines round every corner, it is quite difficult to keep a tab on
which weight loss tips really do work and which don't. Should you join that
bhangra aerobics class, adopt that no-carb diet, or eat dinner at 6pm? Never
mind all that loophole-ridden weight loss jargon, step over to the healthy
side. Here are 10 tips for guaranteed weight loss that will set your weight
straight, and help you adopt some really healthy, weight-friendly habits for
life.
Weight loss tip 1:
Decide how much weight you need to lose - Most people start their weight loss
journey by claiming to be xyz kilos overweight. This isn't a healthy way to
project or aim for weight loss. Calculate your desired weight against your
height by using reliable methods like the BMI, and set a healthy weight loss
target. This is often half the battle won.
Weight loss tip 2: Time
management - This is quite often overlooked. Decide which part of your day will
be dedicated to exercise, when in the week you will stock up on groceries, and
when you will do the cooking - all within your current work and home life
routine. If you don't do this now, your days will be rushed and unplanned, and
you won't be able to sustain your weight loss efforts.
Weight loss tip 3: Stock your kitchen - Keep your house well-stocked with fruits, vegetables, healthy meats, grains, cereals, spices, and flavourers. Follow our tricks to healthy cooking, cooking vegetables for the week, and low-fat cooking posts to understand how best you can stock your kitchen with healthy and delicious ingredients. All of this will go into helping the next step - cooking healthy meals at home.
Weight loss tip 4: Eat
healthy homecooked meals - Whether it's you who's cooking, a family member, or
house help, ensure that every one practises healthy cooking methods, and
ingredients. Ask any person who's lost weight the healthy way, and you will
always hear about how healthy homecooked meals were a big reason behind it. Use
less oil, low salt, fresh produce, and you'll start seeing results in no time.
Weight loss tip 5 :
Start a cardio + weights workout - A healthy weight loss programme is
incomplete without a good exercise routine, and weight training mixed with
cardio is the best way to lose weight. Of course, variations and forms exist,
but any workout that stresses on muscle tone and increased heart rate will
always help you lose weight and keep it off. You can either start a home
workout today, or rely on gyms for fitness training.
Weight loss tip 6: Alter your snacking habits - At Health Me Up, we have several healthy snacking ideas for you. Set those French fries aside, skip that aerated drink, and ban those unhealthy deep fried samosas. Explore the healthy snack world and you will find several appetisers, party snacks, movie snacks and meal accompaniments that'll satisfy every craving of yours.
Weight loss tip 7: Have
at least one active hobby - It isn't sufficient to rely on just 30 to 60
minutes of physical activity per day. Moving from bed to office chair, and back
to bed, isn't a healthy way to live. Buy a motion sensor gaming console that
lets you enjoy social games with friends and family, plan weekend trips, clean
your house once a week, dance, play sports, the list is endless. Get out of the
coffee shop and dining table rut, and you'll have fun along with the healthy
weight loss.
