Staying Motivated to Lose Weight
Recommended Answer:
Don''t try to lose it fast as in starving yourself. It will be too much of a shock to your bod. You could have a stroke, heart attack or breakdown. A good plan would be:
Breakfast: low fat milk on cooked 9-grain cereal (from health food store), mixed with cooked oatmeal and wheat bran. Add some nuts and berries. Drink hot Ovaltine.
Lunch: Egg, tuna or turkey sandwich on whole grain bread with bean or alfalfa sprouts and yogurt w/fruit. If you had meat loaf for dinner, bring a meat loaf sandwich (NO mayo). On cold days, a squatty thermos of hot chili, split peas with ham or beef stew.
Snacks: Fresh (not canned) fruit: banana, orange, apple, kiwi, grapes, peach, nectarine, cherries, pineapple. No chips and nothing ever from a vending machine.
Dinner: salad with white meat chicken and fresh (not canned) veggies: tomatoes, 2 kinds of lettuce, 2 kinds of shredded cabbage, shredded or sliced carrots, alfalfa or bean sprouts, zucchini, hard boiled eggs, brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, tofu, cottage cheese...Instead of dressing, squeeze 1/4 tomato over it.
Or homemade bean/vegetable soups; great way to recycle leftovers.
Or omelet: In blender, whip together eggs, tofu, cottage cheese, onions, garlic powder. Cook with mushrooms, chopped tomatoes.
Foods to avoid: junk food, pastries, desserts, sugar, salty foods, syrup (even canned fruit in syrup), peanut butter, fatty/greasy foods (pork, wieners, chops, bacon, salami, pizza), pasta, potatoes, white bread, rice, canned veggies, ice cream, fast food, soda, chips. And of course no tobacco or alcohol in any form. Both of those add wrinkles and destroy your brain. No oil except olive and mac nut. Coffee also rots your brain.
To keep your skin clear, drink water. Veg. juice is good too. But not canned juice (too much sugar.)
Join a gym; they have all the equipment and staff to show you how to use it to get the look you want to achieve. Much cheaper than buying your own equipment. Also hiking, biking, jogging, bowling, swimming, badminton, tennis...
If you lack energy to exercise, take stress B vitamins.
To lose weight, try an appetite suppressant
- You could go with like 6-8 small meals a day and daily intense cardio, but keep in mind that every fast weight loss is short-term thing. You probably won''t endure for too long as it''s basically torture for your body.
- Stop drinking coffee, juice, and soda immediately. Only drink water. Also only eat three meals a day, no snacks. If you feel like having a snack just drink a cup of water, flavored water, or unsweetened ice-tea. Make sure you eat something small in the morning like toast or a bagel with butter, a bowl of cereal, or fruit salad. Eat only one of these things not all. Then it normal sized lunch and dinners. Also try to exercise more, like if there is an option of walking somewhere or having someone drive you, always pick the walking option. Every small change makes a big difference. Remember one of the main reasons kids and adults are over weight is too much soda so stop drinking coke and everything!
