Start Losing Pounds Today with 6 Easy Tips

By Thong M. Dao

Do you want to lose fat? Have you tried different diets and failed consistently? If you answered yes to these questions, you are in good company. There are a lot of people who have been trying fat loss diets over the years and have failed. The reason they have not succeeded is that they used gimmicks and lose-weight-fast diets that do more damage than good. Here are some sensible things to keep in mind when you try to lose weight.

1. Drink plenty of water. It is recommended that you drink 8 glasses per day, but that may take you some time to work up to. Your body needs a whole lot of water. Water doesn't just flush all the toxins out of your body, but it makes you feel better and healthier. When you drink a lot of water you just begin to feel fit and this is the motivation you need to lose weight. The best thing about water is you can drink as much as you want because it has no calories at all.

2. Drink a glass of water before you sit down to eat. Water will naturally make you feel fuller so you don't have to eat as much food.

3. Do your best to stay away from soda. All sodas are sweetened with lots of sugar. The more you can cut out of your diet the better. Also, diet soda is still soda. It may not have as much sugar, but it has other chemicals and components that are not good for your body either. If you drink a soda, counteract it with a glass of water. Remember, caffeine dehydrates you as well. Decaffeinated sodas still have caffeine in small amounts as well and just as much sugar, so they are not much healthier either.

4. Fruit juice is not as healthy as many folks believe either. Juice really has lots of sugar in it too. Rather than drink fruit juice, consume more fruit. Fruit provides your body with a great deal of necessary fibre in addition to vitamins.

5. Choose fresh fruit to processed fruits. Processed and canned fruits do not have as much fiber as fresh fruit and processed and canned fruits are nearly always sweetened.

6. Go crazy on veggies. Veggies are your best bet whenever it comes to shedding weight. Nature has a fantastic spread when it comes to selecting veggies. And the leafy green veggies are best. Try to have a salad in your diet all of the time. - 17274
