4 Simple Tips On How To Lose Weight
Recommanded Answer:
The oatmeal, banana, carrot, pickle, lettuce, cabbage, lemon, mint, apple, all have fiber. They carry out the fat from your body and help you to have a healthy digestion. The peanut butter, almond milk, tahini are healthy but they have fat. Fat has more calories and tends to go on the body for storage. The turkey, yogurt, chicken, feta cheese, all have saturated fat, hormones, foreign DNA, cholesterol that is not your body's primary fuel source, and goes on the body for storage for sure. But, you are counting calories it looks like and having multiple meals to keep your metabolism up.
Your diet is well planned out and if you don't mind counting calories, you have a good chance of losing the weight. However, it would be much healthier and easier to lose weight by avoiding the foods high in fat and eating only the foods high in fiber for quicker weight loss. Instead of the meats, try some no-fat, highly nutritious beans. They are lower in calories and high in protein. You only need 1-2 cups a day for protein - don't know your age and size. Beans also are your body's true fuel source and will give you energy for exercise and activity. You will have healthier digestion and better health.
Instead of the yogurt, you can get some miso paste from the health food store. It has a lot more probiotics and is fat free. You can make a soup, then when you put it in your bowl, add a spoon of the ramen seasoning tasting miso to dissolve in your soup. For calcium, you can eat more beans, greens, steamed vegetables. Use lemon/lime juice and spices for seasoning, it's no fat and tastes good with lots of vitamin C added. The beans, greens, steamed veggies won't constipate you and they have lots of fiber to carry out the fat. Plus they have magnesium, which you need in order to have good nerves and to absorb calcium.
If you need more energy, don't feel guilty about having some steamed whole grain like quinoa or millet. They are very high in fiber and protein. They are good carbs that give you energy. They get used up for energy and are not stored as fat. You can even have a potato without fattening condiments. Potatoes don't make you fat unless you are exceeding your calorie limit for the day. They are super nutritious with all the vitamins and minerals you need for good health. Plus, they are no fat and have fiber.
Fiber is your friend, fat is your enemy. But, if you are counting calories, you can do what you want. I don't know what to say on the coffee. I'm a mormon and I don't ever drink the stuff. But, I've heard it can be bad on your nerves and you won't sleep as well. Plus it's addictive. But, your choice.
I will send you a link to my site category with tons of super fast weight loss ideas if you decide you don't want to count calories, never be hungry and instead eat more of the foods that contribute to fat burning the most; recipes, testimonials, and weight loss tips.
You are one smart person, keep up the healthy trek! :)
- SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE DOING GREAT ! THE NEXT TIME YOU GO TO A BOOK STORE, ASK FOR SOME MORE HEALTHY FOOD PLAN BOOKS . YOU CAN FIND MANY THERE. PERHAPS YOUR DR. CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH SOME SAMPLE, HEALTHY DIET PLANS AS WELL. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK !
- Sounds like you're doing well. Props to you! Keep it up! Just remember exercise, and don't give in to the temptation!
- Impressive! Although I think you may need to watch your caloric intake, it may be quite low if you are on the heavier side. If you have a phone with an app, I suggest you download myfitnesspal, loseit!, or livestrong. (they have a website too)They all give you a calorie goal based on your current weight/height/age needed to loose weight. It may seem tedious to calorie count, but it's necessary at times. Myfitnesspal has the widest selection of foods thus far and it takes no time really. I used to eat a bunch of veggies and fruit, but I didn't know I needed to eat more initially, so I didn't loose weight. Now that I use it, I loose 2-3 lbs each week for sure. It keeps me on track, but you seem to know what to do when it comes to a balanced diet:)
- good for ya
