Simple tips

Here are four simple rules to follow to lose weight and more importantly keep it off.

  1. Start your day with breakfast its the most important meal of the day to start your metabolism working, but stay away from the sugary cereal! A good way to start your day is a boiled egg & fruit or an even better way is to substitute a boiled egg for two egg whites.
  2. Drink a glass of water before every meal and after your cup of coffee. Drinking before a meal helps fill your stomach and Yes, it is true that coffee can help kick start your metabolism; however, it is also true that Coffee dehydrates you. So for your morning routine follow the simple rule that 1 cup of water for every cup of coffee.
  3. Enjoy a mid-morning snack. You have probably heard that it is better to eat 6 small meals than it is to eat 3 large ones. Well, it's true! The goal is to keep your metabolism going throughout the day. So have yourself a mid-morning snack. Great ideas for a mid-morning snack are: fruits, nuts, cottage cheese, yogurt or granola. Bear in mind Portion Control. For example: an excellent mid-morning snack would consist of a serving of raw almonds. (1 serving = approximate. 20 almonds)
  4. Don't touch the soda, not even the diet. Soda should not be part of your regular diet, one quick way to lose weight is to lose the soda habit…and keep in mind that diet soda is a demon of it's own.

    One 32 oz. soda = >400 calories
    One 32 oz. soda a day for 1 year = 146,000 calories
    1 lb of body weight = 3,200 calories

    So…in conclusion, a daily soda habit like that adds up to roughly 41 lbs worth of calories a year, and Seriously, don't let the "zero calorie" diet soda fool you.
