You Can Lose 20 Pounds the Healthy Way
Everybody has a special occasion that they want to look their best for. Maybe it's a special vacation, or a family reunion, or even a wedding. If just the thought of losing weight in time for some big event has you hyperventilating, relax. If you start now, you will have enough time to lose 20 pounds and feel great, too.
There are several things you can do in order to lose weight quickly and safely. Even a fairly large amount of weight, like 20 pounds, is not impossible to lose in a relatively short amount of time. You just have to stay focused and be persistent.
Start your weight loss program with breakfast. Oatmeal not only makes you feel full, it also lowers your cholesterol. Oatmeal also absorbs the little fat globules floating around in your bloodstream, AND it tastes good! Those 20 extra pounds don't stand a chance!
Drinking cold water burns more calories than drinking warm water. And drinking water instead of soda or other sweetened drinks is better for you in two ways - it fills you up, so you don't feel hungry AND no sugar means no calories. Diet sodas may have no calories, but the "sweet taste" causes your insulin to rise, which causes cravings. For food.
Eat LOTS of fruit - especially citrus, apples and bananas. Apples have tons of fiber, which fills you up and helps flush out the fat. Bananas also have fiber and potassium, which is good for your heart. Citrus fruits, like oranges, grapefruits and lemons, again have tons of fiber AND tons of Vitamin C, both of which help maintain a healthy body and weight.
Not only does fiber fill you up, it also aids in digestion, moving things right along, so your body doesn't have time to absorb every last calorie out of your last meal!
Want great taste AND quick weight loss? Eat spicy foods! The spice enhances your metabolism, which makes you burn more calories, more quickly. Spicy foods also help your immune system fight off infection. Don't eat too much, though. A little goes a long way.
Two of the best foods to eat when trying to lose weight are FISH and CALCIUM-RICH FOODS. Why? It's simple. Both are loaded with protein, which fills you up like nothing else. When you're satisfied, you don't eat as much. In addition, the omega-3 in fish is terrific for your heart, and it may have appetite-suppressant capabilities.
Exercise. Don't kid yourself about this one. You don't have to get in tri-athalon shape to lose weight (despite what you see on TV), you just need some form of regular activity to help you burn off the calories and fat. You can walk, swim, roller blade, jump rope or ride a bike. Just find something you like doing, and it won't even feel like a chore.
Try to incorporate as many of these tips into your life as possible, and have faith. You will lose those 20 pounds in no time. Guaranteed! - 17274
