Weight Loss – A plan to lose 23 pounds in 6 months
Have you ever wanted to take a few pounds off? Have you tried a diet that didn´t work? This is a method for losing weight that really works, your commitment is required to get the results; but don´t worry, it´s been designed so that you can commit on it very easily. You will have to change your eating habits a little bit, and stick to the new ones long enough so you get rid of the weight you want to.
First of all, let´s understand the math. If you manage to lose almost a pound per week, then, in 6 months, you´ll have lost 23 pounds. That sounds reasonable, don´t you think? Now that you have a goal and some expectations about the time to get it, you will need a point of reference, so start weighting yourself everyday. Try to do it first time in the morning, before you eat anything.
Try to step up in the scale the same time every day and keep records of your measurements. At the beginning you may notice that losing weight is slow, but the most important here is consistent action. Don´t worry about changes in your daily measurements; they´d seem to be very little, but consistent action will lead to consistent weight loss over time.
Set yourself a goal for the first week. Avoid eating anything after dinner. If you´re like most people, this would be a real challenge. Sometimes is very difficult to eliminate those late evening or night time snacks. This is very important because you´ll be giving your body longer time until you eat again. Consider this, you get hungry during the day, and then you eat a snack or a cookie to satisfy your hunger (yes, it´s very common). What if you get hungry late at night, most of the times you won´t do anything unless you starved, probably you´ll sleep through and wait until next morning, when you´ll be hungry, after you wake up, and ready to eat. If you had dinner at 6pm, didn´t eat anything after that and didn´t get up until 6am that means your body had 12 hours losing weight.
After doing this for a week, you should congratulate yourself! That means you´re really putting some effort in this method an now you can decide to continue with this in the next six months. After the first week start drinking more water, a liter per day at least.
Drinking more water will fill you up so you won´t feel like eating too much. You´ll still be hungry, but will eat less food. This is very simple but can help you a lot.
You´ll want to increase your daily water intake from now on. Let me tell you why: water fills you up, if you drink water, you won´t fell like eating that much, it´s very simple.
It´s always a good idea to drink more water, not just to lose weight. It will help your health in general but I suggest you to consult your doctor.
Well, this is the plan to get rid of 23 pounds in 6 months. Keep records of your weight every day; try to eat less food, specially those snacks after dinner and drink more water.
