Hi everyone! Thanks again for viewing my blog. In today's post we're going to advance into how to lose weight. Now remember, you do not need any miracle cure, miracle medicine, etc. The "secret" is avoiding junky food and exercising--NEITHER of which you need excessive amounts of money for: just motivation. So enough chit chat. Let's get down to it:
THE FIRST STEP
You must make a plan or schedule. This is an absolute necessity, and a key to staying motivated in your quest to lose weight and be healthy. This includes:
-Making a list of what foods you will avoid, or allow yourself only on special occasions (cheetos, donuts, doritos, sweets in general). Another big one is soda. Soda has a TON of sugar, and if you can avoid that entirely, then you are doing well already. Furthermore, if you are in the habit of regularly eating at fast food places and can at all avoid it, do so. Compose a meal plan in which you create simple, healthy meals. The more you have a food schedule planned out, the less you will find yourself copping out and simply getting a greasy cheeseburger. There is a huge wealth of books and online resources devoted to healthy meal planning, so take advantage of them!
-Making an exercise plan. It is ideal to get cardiovascular exercise every single day. That, however, can often be impractical, even for the most devoted athletes. Craft a plan that fits your schedule, but make sure to get at least 20 minutes of cardiovascular exercise at least 3 times per week. If you don't think you have time, trust me, you do. The time is there, you just have to have the drive to get it done. Running, swimming, power-walking, and biking are all great forms of exercise.
Also, get friends and family involved! Exercising with a group of some of your favorite people is a fantastic motivator. Go with some friends and go for a run, or play tennis or basketball. Sports are also a great source of exercise because they are very physically engaging and you're often not even thinking about it.
Stay in there!
