The Top 7 Weight Loss Tips

The Top 7 Weight Loss Tips
When dieting, weight loss motivation can be a bit elusive.
The constant cycle of putting on weight, losing weight,
putting on weight and losing weight can become tiresome and
demotivating.

The following tips come from my courses and seminars to
help you get rid of weight and find that weight loss
motivation.

Tip 1 - Know what you want

Make sure you know exactly how much weight you want to get
rid of. Some weight just doesn't cut it, so have an exact
figure of what your target weight is and how much you are
losing.

Tip 2 - Stay off the scales

Don't weigh yourself every day, it'll dent your weight loss
motivation and frustrate you. Instead, pick one day a week
when you are going to weigh yourself and weigh yourself
every day at the same time (I usually recommend Monday's as
you may be at your heaviest after the weekends excesses!).

Tip 3 - Measure yourself

Often weight loss isn't immediately noticeable through
weight, but is more obvious through inches lost. so,
measure your chest, waist, hips and thighs and record the
results.

Tip 4 - Track your progress

Motivation comes from seeing results, so track your weight
loss and your measurements shrinking and you will find
yourself being more motivated to lose weight.

Tip 5 - Eat regularly

Most dieters think that by skipping meals they are going to
lose weight quickly. NO! It doesn't work like that. If
you skip meals then your body starts to think there's a
famine coming, which means your body piles on the fat to
survive the famine. Eat regular meals.

Tip 6 - Don't Deny Yourself

Many dieters will deny themselves anything naughty such as
chocolate, cakes and so on. Trouble is, when you deny
yourself something, you want it more. So instead CHOOSE
not to have it, because then you are in control.
Occasionally, you may choose to have it, which is great too.

Tip 7 - Drink, drink, drink

And no, I don't mean alcohol. I mean yummy, delicious
water. Drink plenty of it as it will flush toxins from
your system and help keep you healthy. The experts
recommend that you should drink at least 2 liters (just
over 4 pints) of water every single day. Avoid caffeinated
drinks and fizzy soda's as these don't help quench your
thirst or remove the toxins from your system.

These seven tips for weight loss motivation and success
will help you to rapidly lose weight with the minimum of
trouble.
