Quickest Way To Lose Weight

December 12th, 2008

?Diet and exercise combined are king, together they represent the quickest way to lose weight. That means taking in fewer calories than you utilize. There’s no need to starve, and in fact periods of starvation such as missing a meal could lead to more weight gain when the body enters ‘starvation’ mode, not to mention starving yourself could cause deadly damage to your body. Patience is a virtue when trying to lose weight, as with many endeavors. In the long run a smart every day diet combined with good exercise is the quickest way to lose weight. That’s without the yo-yo effect of many fad diets.

Diet doesn’t mean a diet, a short term alteration of regular eating habits. Diet means the everyday, day in and day out, for all the days of your life way that you eat. A good diet includes foods from each of the food groups, taken in moderation and the right amounts. And with a well balanced diet it’s easy to adjust calories down when you need to lose a few pounds temporarily.

If it seems like a daunting task consider that you likely already eat the foods necessary, just in too large quantities. For many people it’s a simple matter of cutting down portion sizes to move from bad eating to good eating. Even the chocolate cake or cookies can fit into a well balanced diet, if eaten in small quantities. The three no no white foods ‘white bread, white rice, and sugar’ can easily be replaced in your diet. Eating whole grain bread instead of white bread, brown rice instead of white rice, and fruits instead of sugary foods are quick changes that don’t require eating much less. .

A good diet plan includes preparing for special occasions as well as for meals at home. Eating at restaurants and friends’ homes doesn’t mean breaking good eating habits. Ask some questions. Part of the process is understanding that sometimes the plan will fail. Don’t let missteps discourage you. One cheated meal doesn’t mean the whole diet, remember it’s an every day forever diet not just a few days diet, has failed.

As for exercise do 30 minutes of aerobic exercise seven days a week. That’s the goal, don’t worry if you miss a day here or there. Add extra exercise such as parking further from the store or office for a little walk, or climbing stairs instead of the elevator.

Simple math says good diet plus exercise equals the quickest way to lose weight.

    I think weight loss is all about three things – attitude, diet and exercise. From my experience, reducing carb intake and doing aerobic exercises are keys to successful weight loss.
