If you'd like to lose a few pounds, then you've come to the right place. Lots of people today are overweight. While it's true that many people are ok with being a few pounds overweight, many of us would like to get rid of a couple pounds.
When you start on any kind of goal, its important to be as specific as possible. Choose exactly how much you want to lose, and a target date. And give yourself some breathing room. If you try for too much, too fast, you will almost always fail. A few pounds in a few weeks is a perfect goal.
Now that you've got your target in your sights, it's time to start to slowly change your habits to get there. If you try and change too quickly, you'll likely run out of steam and give up before even getting halfway there.
What is some good food to eat? Lots of good carbohydrates. Vegetables, grains, and anything with fiber. Fiber will make the carbohydrates harder to digest, and harder to convert into fat for long term energy storage.
Your next victim should be bad fats. Saturated fats found in fried foods, and many vegetable oils should be avoided. Instead, try olive oil, avocados and nuts, and fish. These are the closest thing to a miracle food that there is.
And of course, if you are serious about losing weight, you will want to include some kind of exercise program into your plan. The secret is to start small, and gradually build over time. If you start too quickly, you'll likely give up. Many people make this mistakes, but many more don't.
When you combine a slow change in diet, with a slow and gradual introduction of exercise into your daily life, the weight will automatically come off. And pretty soon, a healthy diet and a moderate exercise program will simply be part of your daily routine. Making keeping your new body automatic.
