'My New Year's resolution is to drop a jeans size and fit into that gorgeous dress from three years ago.' Sounds familiar? Losing weight has been many of our resolutions but the thing is, it's been our resolution for years and years. Well, 2011 is a brand new year and it's about time you made some brand new changes. Don't let this resolution go on till next year, lose weight the smart way and you'll finally be able to keep to your yearly promise.
Change your eating habits. If you're a real eater then it's about time you made some changes to what you eat and how much you eat. Print out the food pyramid and stick it to your fridge so that you'd know how many servings of a certain type of food you should consume in a day. From here, you should be able to plan out your meals for the week and stick to it so that you'd be able to see a difference.
Swap your food for healthier alternatives. Instead of going for that steak with fries, go for grilled chicken with vegetables. It's important that you pay attention to that food you eat and know what is good and what isn't. swap red meats for white and replace potatoes and fries for vegetables and fruits. When it comes to snacks, instead of grabbing that bag of chips, try grabbing a handful of nuts and seeds instead? To make this easier, always prepare small cups of nuts, raisins and seeds so that you can just pick up a cup whenever you feel like a snack.
Clear out the evils. Chips, candy, chocolates and sugary cereals are the evils when it comes to losing weight so empty your cupboards from all of these and avoid the snack aisle in grocery stores. More often than not, when you're doing so well you're going to be tempted so badly to pig out on a tub of ice cream or with 5 bars of chocolates. So to make sure this doesn't happen, reward yourself each time you make significant progress on the weighing scale. Don't go all out to celebrate, but get just one bar of your favorite chocolate or candy and be happy with that.
Portions matter. To make it less painful to lose weight, you shouldn't try starving or anything of that sort. Instead, just reduce the size of your portions at each meal. Instead of using a proper dinner plate, invest in some small plates and go with darker colors too as they create an illusion of being filled though there isn't much food on your plate. Avoid second helpings and make sure you take only what's enough to fill your stomach and nothing more.
Chew slowly. Don't be in a hurry when it comes to eating, when you take your time to properly chew your food slowly you don't only help your body digest the food you would also be able to tell when you're full. When you eat fast, you'd fill up on so much food that you won't realize how full you are until you're stuffed. By chewing slowly, you'll know when you're full so you can stop eating.
Stay hydrated. Many people mistake thirst for hunger when the body is dehydrated, so always make sure you get enough water. Keep a bottle with you at all times and have a drink every now and then, this way you won't be dehydrated and you'd fill up on water as well. These simple steps are easy, effortless and have been proved to be quite effective as well. So with enough determination, you should be able to finally lose weight and have a different resolution next year.
