5 Tips For Weight Loss

Are you ready to lose some weight?

Perhaps you're surfing for the magic pill that

will vanish your weight away. Maybe you're

simply searching for the right information to

help you lose and keep the weight off.

Whatever the case, here's some surefire tips

to help you with your weight loss.

1. Do your homework. As you start your

weight loss plan, take the time to carefully

evaluate your situation. What caused the

weight gain? Pregnancy? Inactivity?

Overeating and binging? Emotions? There

are many triggers in our lives that will cause

us to gain weight. Some can be prevented or

eliminated, some can't. It's important as you

begin your weight loss to understand and

come to grips with the cause of your weight.

Be honest with yourself. Don't cheat on this

one. Obviously, you want to have your

weight loss become permanent.

In order to keep off the weight in the

future, you may have to make some lifestyle

changes to stay slim. Don't give up before

you start. There's usually more than one

solution to any weight gain reason. Just

remain open-minded, and be willing to

change to get the results you desire. Don't

hesitate to read and learn as much as you

can about weight gain. It's really easy to

understand, and you may be surprised at

what you learn.

2. Avoid Hidden Calories. Here's an over

simplified version of weight loss and weight

maintenance... if you eat more than your

body needs, you gain weight. If you eat less

(reduce calories) than your body needs, you

lose weight! While it sounds simple enough,

just eat less ....Right? Basically that's true.

Yet, there are other things that come into

play as one is trying to lose weight. One

common mistake many people make as they

diet is the fact they don't really understand

how much is provided by the food they are

eating. This is especially true with eating out

and eating snack foods and beverages.

A serving as defined by the scientific

communities on weight loss and a serving

that your local restaurant provides is most

often very different. For example, one

serving of bread is typically one slice. Yet,

the average bun in a fast food restaurant is

actually almost three servings. A single

serving of French fries is 15 fries. Just take a

guess at how many servings are in a "Biggie"

French fry container.

Also, don't be fooled into thinking just

because a bag of popcorn is small, that it's a

single serving. The same thing goes for

beverages. The bottle may contain16 oz.

Yet, the serving size may be 4 ounces. Pay

attention to actually how many servings of

food and beverages you are actually

consuming. The amount may surprise you.

I'll give you an example, my son-in-law

who's 28 was had put on several pounds. His

favorite cola is Mountain Dew. Mountain

Dew has higher sugar content than most

other cola's. He didn't have a clue as to how

may calories he was consuming by drinking 3

or 4 24 oz bottles a day. When my daughter

told him, he was amazed. He replaced the

cola with water and went from a 38" waist to

a 34" waist in about two months. Be careful,

you may be consuming more than you think.

3. Consider Diet Pills Carefully. Maybe

one of your diet buddies has decided to buy

diet pills, or maybe you've seen or heard a

commercial for diet supplements promising

easy fast weight loss. If so, please evaluate

CAREFULLY! Even the most natural-sounding

diet pills or weight loss supplements can be

useless for weight loss, or dangerous, or both.

Diet pills are very tempting things if you want

to lose weight, especially if you have tried

several conventional weight loss plans

without success. The side effects and

dangers of some diet and weight loss pills

can vary enormously because many of these

pills contain a cocktail of ingredients and

because dosage instructions may be

inadequate. Possible side effects include:

nervousness, tremor, diarrhea, bulging eyes,

racing heartbeat, elevated blood pressure

even heart failure.

There are some instances when diet pills

can be helpful. Usually these are indicated in

the truly obese person. For the person

wanting to lose 5 or 10 pounds, they usually

aren't necessary. So you may ask, how does

the diet pills work to cause weight loss, while

I continue to eat the same amount? In

recent years, it seems everyone has the

PERFECT answer to help with your weight

loss. There are almost as many weight loss

methods and diet pills available as there are

people who want to lose weight.

There are diet pills that stop your hunger

so you eat less and burn more fat. There are

diet pills that cause the body not to

metabolize all the food you eat, so it's passed

out of your system and not stored as fat.

There's combination of these two. As you

begin your search for the perfect diet pill, be

careful as some can have harmful effects on

your body.

Diet Pills work by shifting levels of brain

chemicals (neurotransmitters) that control

satiety (fullness) and desire for food. Some

also slightly increase your metabolic rate -

the rate at which your body burns calories.

Examples of weight loss diet pills include:

Diethylpropion hydrochloride (eg.

Tenuate)

Mazindol (eg. Mazanor, Sanorex)

Phendimetrazine tartrate (eg. Bontril)

Phentermine hydrochloride (eg. Adipex-P,

Ionamin)

4. Monitor/Increase Your Activity -

Regardless whether you're taking diet pills or

not to help with your weight loss, it's still

important to maintain a regular exercise

program. This is beneficial not only for your

weight loss, but also for your overall health.

In many ways we in the developed country

have a much more sedentary lifestyle than

our bodies need. Obviously it's easier for us

than in the era when people had to be very

active simply to survive, yet it's not

necessarily healthy for us not to be active.

Start and maintain some sort of exercise plan

no matter what your age. Especially for the

middle-aged and older people exercise play a

very, very important role in the quality of

health and staying within normal weight

ranges.

5. Develop a Plan for Maintenance. Even

if you're taking diet pills to help with your

weight loss it's important to keep in mind,

that once you stop the pills, unless you

maintain a balance between your activity

level and the food you eat the weight will

come back. While it may take some time to

become accustomed to a change in diet and

activity, the rewards are well worth the time

and effort spent to reach and maintain a

healthy weight.
