How do I really become Motivated to begin my Diet and Stick with It?
cdpk asked:
I have come to the acceptance that I need to lose some weight that I have gained in the past few years. I have done Weight Watchers about 3 years ago and have since gained back about 15lbs and now would like to lose at least 15 lbs if not 20 in the next 3 1/2 months (i’m going on a cruise in Nov.) I’m probably just going to pull my Weight Watcher books out and start again. Any suggestions on how to really stick with it and stay motivated through the process, and how to really maximize weight loss.

Fastest Way to Lose Weight
Okay…I only started last monday…All I do is walk one hour every morning. I wear a calorie counter monitor to loose weight by the numbers. I have already lost one pant size and 7 pounds. And its only been 8 days! I am a woman and have three kids and this is the method I use when I gain weight.. I am now at a size two and everyone is always amazed that I have had three kids.
Here it is:
Helpful Tips for weight loss:
1)A good way to loose weight is to use a calorie counter watch
Keep to a 1,200 food intake
Add 1,200 plus 3,500 (equals one pound of fat) …and that is the total amount of calories you need to burn each day. Its actually really easy once you start watching the numbers and it doesn’t seem like work or exercise. Its just a matter of changing the way you think about loosing weight.
I use this method when i gain some pounds. The first time I did this I went from 168 to 127
2) Most people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body’s principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.
Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don’t have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.
How to Lose Weight
well, don’t always just eat little and drink a lot of water, eat normal but it’s just that when you go grocery shopping, buy the low, less or no fat product’s. Wake up a bit earlier in the morning like around 45 minutes to take a jog around the block and bring your pet if you have one. Nutrient bars, 1percent milk, low fat and calorie yogurt is always good for breakfast. There is also some yogurts with omega 3 that taste good to! Cut down on the sugary stuff and you’ll be fine. If you really like sweet stuff, eat fruits! Try to avoid chocolate and never sneak a piece to reward yourself because at the end, you end up eating more, and more. More frequently too!
