Easy And Free Weight Loss At Home

By Ron Cripps

There is a special occasion and you have to wear that old dress or suit but it does not fit so now you have to lose weight fast. Lose weight too fast and you could harm your body. A loss of muscle tone or even heart disease and issues with other internal organs can result from fad diets, miracle pills and extreme fasting. Here are some tips to safely lose weight fast.

Because losing weight is simply expending more calories than you take in, figure out exactly what you take in. Maintain a written record of every morsel, for at least a week. Don't take short cuts that's cheating. Cheating on this only harms you. Then write down the calories in each of these foods and drinks. There are many sources such as http://www.mypyramidtracker.gov that can help with this.

Now that you know the calories you consume, start reducing. This can be as straightforward as cutting down on portion sizes. Serve sizes are generally too generous both at home and in restaurants. There are a lot of other easy cuts that you can make that don't extensively modify what you eat and your lifestyle. These include salad dressing, butter, candies, as well as juice or soda. Salad dressing is the prevalent source of calories on most dinner tables! Getting used to the delicious taste of a salad with a pinch of lemon juice makes a large difference to your diet. Also note that empty calories such as sugars and white breads (carbohydrates) are the earliest things to reduce. These can with no trouble at all be substituted with sugar substitutes and whole grain breads.

But I really like the side dish? This part of the meal is often a minefield of bad food choices including French Fries, macaroni and cheese and potato salad. Replace these items with healthy alternatives such as steamed vegetables, cottage cheese, or salad (minus dressing.)

Build up some muscle to amplify your muscle mass and metabolism. It's a decent way to burn more calories and will help you to burn calories even when sitting still. Aerobic working out is the best for calorie and fat burning. A lot of experts say to perform aerobic activity for 30 minutes a day 3-5 days a week. Don't pay attention to the 3-5 times a week school of thought on working out. Find an exercise you can sustain for seven days each week, forever and that you enjoy..
