"Where do I start if I want to lose weight?" Although
the measures when it comes to losing weight must be different in each case,
there are some tips that work for everyone. Do not worry about not knowing
where to start, you are not alone. There are a lot of people like you and you
shouldn't be cut off asking this question. I hope this article resolves your
doubts and helps you get off to a good start.
The Eight Tips to Start Losing Weight:
1. DECIDE!
This is the most important. YOU have to decide if you need a
change, such as improving your health or losing weight. YOU have to get to that
point, without any other person forcing you to do it. YOU have to work every
day, with commitment and determination. I have worked with people who had not
decided to lose weight, but who hired me as a coach anyway. It was very obvious
because the determination and desire disappeared very quickly. In fact, many
came to lie to me about what they ate. Hmmm ... We're doing this for you, not
for me! You are the one who decides!
2. GO FOR A WALK
Going for a walk is an exercise with a low level of stress
and impact (unlike running) and is an excellent way to burn fat and lose
weight. You just have to wear comfortable shoes, to walk, run or train ... and
go out! It will be a great time to listen to your favorite songs or an
audiobook.
3. MAKE A BOARD OF YOUR IDEAL LIFE
Browse a few magazines and cut out photos of your ideal
life, your body, your lifestyle, your home, etc. Look at it, visualize how you
will feel when you reach those weight loss goals (yes, you can also close your
eyes) and VISUALIZE results. Convince yourself that you will get it, no matter
what it costs. I often touch their hearts and then touch mine, as if I wanted
to make a transfusion with my sources of inspiration. I do it and it's great!
4. DO NOT DRINK CALORIES, DRINK ONLY WATER!
If you want to lose weight, repeat with me: I will not drink
juices, soda, or sports drinks ... just water! That is, no light soda either.
Artificial sweeteners activate the "reward points" that are
stimulated when we drink sweets. Since they have no calories, it is difficult
to stop this momentum and you will have more cravings.
5. DEFINE YOUR WHY
You have to write it and put it everywhere. Keep it always
in mind! It has to be something emotional and compelling, like: "I want to
feel fit and energetic to play and run behind my children without
drowning," "I want to feel good wearing this outfit that I bought for
my friends' wedding," " I want to live longer than my parents lived,
”etc. And please, don't fall for phrases like "Do it for those who told
you you couldn't do it." Forget about them, see you later!
6. BALANCE AND STABILITY
Start by doing stability exercises by staying on one foot,
for example, or on an unstable surface (in the sand, on a ball, etc.).
7. START WRITING DOWN WHAT YOU EAT
How much are you eating? Do you question some time? Many
people have no idea how many calories they eat.
On the other hand, taking too few calories can make weight
loss difficult and the body will be free of that extra fat since it is
reserving it in case of famine. Do you see why it is important to write down
what you eat? The Balance app can help you out, you don't have to eat your head
with mathematical calculations! Also, remember that being aware of what you eat
does not mean spending the day weighing each ingredient. Maybe you can do it at
the beginning, to get an idea of your habits, but you can also simply resort
to tricks such as estimating portions by hand.
