Yuck----
I imagine nasty things on food that is unhealthy.
For example, ++tostada chips are unhealthy so I imagine that the salsa for them has blood in it. ++ white rice- maggots ++ ramen noodles or other noodles- worms. ++ chocolate- poo :eek: and this helps me turn down foods that will sabotage my goal of eating healthy foods. Now, If anyone cares to help me out on this idea, how else can your imagination help with this strategy???? |
Power naps

Tea is key
People don't realize how many calories they consume just in beverages. Drinking teas and iced teas that are not pre-sweetened will absolutely help with losing weight. And drinking them at the right time of day is important too. White Tea and Pu-erh Tea are becoming more popular these days in helping to combat fat in the body. And Yerba Mate and Oolong are getting a reputation as metabolism boosters. Also herbals like Chickweed or Dandelion can act like a mild diuretic to help with bloating.

I have a tendency to eat when bored, worried, etc. If I get the urge to eat when I'm not really hungry, I sometimes:
1. Brush my teeth. Brushing one's teeth is associated with the end eating, plus I generally no longer feel like eating with a minty fresh mouth. 2. Walk up and down the stairs 5 times. I don't know if it's the distraction, the exercise, or thinking about how my legs ache and how few calories that effort burned, but this usually works for me. Other "tricks": 3. Fill out your daily food log religiously. I often back off from eating something I don't really need because I don't want to have to see it in my food log and see the calorie count jump. 4. Eat more soups. In a study, two groups were allowed to each as much as they wanted. One group was fed a stew/casserole with water to drink on the side. The other group got the same stew/casserole with water added to it to make it into a soup. The soup group got filled up with less food. 5. I'm a big late-night snacker. I've made the kitchen off limits to me after 8 pm. At 7:30 pm, I'll have some fruit with cheese or nuts, and then I don't go into the kitchen until the following morning. (And, no, I haven't started stashing food in other rooms!) 6. Don't eat in front of the tv or at the computer. When I'm focused on a screen, I eat mindlesslessly and then realize I've finished my meal and haven't really enjoyed it - and usually don't feel full. Unplug and really enjoy your food. 7. I eat too fast, so I'm trying to put my spoon or fork down between bites, or chew a bite 20 times. This is another way to taste and better enjoy your food. |

What is working for me now....
I have never really used this site to help me lose weight...and I have been through all kinds of fad diets... but currantly I am losing weight by eating what is right.....
I eat... log my food in the fitday foods... log my weight... and look at nutrition... find out where I am lacking and eat food high in that source... no need to eat a lot as it is calculated by the week or longer if you want... Lately I have been steaming fish on a daily basis... as well as my veggies and rice.... which means a lot less salt and oil.... after 1 week.. I checked the pie chart for the carb, protein and fats and it was perfect... 33-34 percent in each area... and I am losing weight... Hope this helps... |
I do most of these things as well as this new one, I bought a Nutri Bullet (100.00) and use that to make green drinks, complete with avocado & banana, to keep me full. You can use a blender but will need to really chop things finely and do your drink in small batches :)

Something that REALLY helps me a lot is not eating past 4pm. This is very hard though! you have to have the will power to not eat dinner. I have my big meals earlier in the day and for dinner i really only have a snack. (yogurt, fruit, crackers) nothing big. It almost never fails. Everyday i do this the next day the scale is a whole pound lower. The reason being that I give my body all that time to process the food and not go to bed. Time doesnt really matter but i do make sure not to eat at least 5 hours from bedtime. :) If you have the strenghth to do this you will not be disapointed! :D

My best tip, is you have to be honest with yourself in everything. I don't eat "Diet" food "Low cal, Low Fat" to me it is all just smoke and mirrors. I eat the real deal, and watch my portions. By doing so I never feel deprived, never feel like I can or should reward myself for "being good" on my diet. Eating good IS my reward. I have never enjoyed eating so much until I made this important step, and I have never had successful weight loss in my life until making the decision to eat in this way. |
My favorite weight loss tips was doing yoga. Yes of course! Yoga for weight loss is a natural way of losing your body weight. There are many advantages are found with yoga for weight loss. It does not have any side effects. Yoga for weight loss was found to be everlasting.
|
I eat when I'm hungry rather than by the clock and don't be afraid of leaving something on you plate. Make your calorie cuts from processed carbohydrates rather than protein.

Plan & Prepare, Write, and Be Loyal

H20
I can't believe no one has mentioned this....WATER.
Hungry? Drink water. I constantly drink icewater around the house. The second it's gone, I get up, fill it again and carry it everywhere. Many, many people mistake thirst for hunger. If you are urinating with any color, you aren't getting enough water. |
Don't cut out all the food you enjoy.
Write everything down. Mentally prepare yourself and continue giving yourself mental pep talks to keep your willpower, confidence and determination Make a routine and stick to it Start exercise routine and stick to it any sports/gym activity that gets your heart rate up but make sure you enjoy it Think about what you are eating and what time of the day and stick to it, remind yourself of your original aim/goal |
Hello ladies,
I'm joining to the conversation. Me too I wanna lose weight. I tried weight loss programs but they didn't work. I would like to find the best solution to lose weight without regain weight. If you have weight loss tips to give me, don't hesitate to let me know! Thanks. Claire. |
Thanks James,
I try to eat healthy, to drink much water and sometimes I run but I lose very little. Now, I avoid strict weight loss programs. I would like to find a natural way and effective to boost my weight loss. According to you, is it better to eat 4-5 smaller meals? James and other people, if you have some other tips, let me know. Thanks. Claire. |
:)Initial weight loss is largely due to loss of water, and you need to drink an adequate amount of water in order to avoid dehydration. The process of burning calories requires an adequate supply of water in order to function efficiently; dehydration slows down the fat-burning process. Burning calories creates toxins (think of the exhaust coming out of your car), and water plays a vital role in flushing them out of your body. Dehydration causes a reduction in blood volume; a reduction in blood volume causes a reduction in the supply of oxygen to your muscles; and a reduction in the supply of oxygen to your muscles can make you feel tired. Water helps maintain muscle tone by assisting muscles in their ability to contract, and it lubricates your joints. Proper hydration can help reduce muscle and joint soreness when exercising. A healthy (weight loss) diet includes a good amount of fiber. But while fiber is normally helpful to your digestive system, without adequate fluids it can cause constipation instead of helping to eliminate it. Drinking water with a meal may make you feel full sooner and therefore satisfied eating less. Note, however, that drinking water alone may not have this effect. In order to feel satiated (not hungry), our bodies need bulk, calories and nutrients.so please drink clean and filtered water and to know about water filtration click here:

According to you, drinking more water and tea like green tea can help to burn fat and to lose weight? Cheers, Claire. |

Some Effective tips for Weight Loss
Hii !! I would like to share some of the tips to help you out .
1. Try to make your own menu like including fresh juicy fruits, raw vegetables, high-fiber cereals that are low in calories. 2. Have food an hour before training and then within 60 minutes after your last rep 3. Calculate the calories of the food you consume per day. A daily calorie intake of 1940 calories per day for women and 2500 for men. I would prefer you all to check out http://vimeo.com/64797621 |
weight loss tips
What works really well for me is eating all carbs before dinner, not at nighttime. Carbs during the day makes sense since we need energy during the day but not at nighttime since we're going to be lying down and sleeping, or whatever....LOL! :)
A typical day for me would be: whole grain cereal in the morning (1 cup with silk soymilk), snack around 10:30 would be one mozzarella cheese stick and 1 medium apple. At 1:pm 1/2 cup brown rice with baked chicken breast, spinach and/or large toss salad or both if you want, then around 3:pm if I am hungry, a piece of fruit, most of the time, it's another apple and 1 (100 calorie) bag of almonds. Dinner time would be lots of vegetables/toss salad as much as you want with chicken, fish, your preference of poultry/fish/meat (generous portions). Stomach feels good when I'm off to bed. Hope this is helpful. |

I'm resending my note as shown below: Those silly faces came up where I had inserted my "eating times" those silly faces came up (not intended) Sorry about that. Here's my note again.

Personally I would have to say that from my own personal experiences my best tips for weight loss are:
1. Always make sure you get your five a day, no matter what. Fruit and veg are not only low in calories but high in nutrients and help your health and weight. 2. You don't have to do it religiously but count your calories, and better still do this in line with how many calories you as an individual needs to consume each day. That way you will just get into the habit of eating foods that tally up close to how much you need to either maintain or lose weight. There are loads of cool free online calorie counter websites that you can use. Calorie count has tons of foods, as does calorie king, but I like calorie-in-foods because it is easier to use and the information is clearer. Plus I love the picture menus, just looks and feels user friendly. 3. Eat enough at mealtimes so you don't snack. Just eating 3 meals a day was a chore for me at first, but after months of literally forcing myself into a better routine, I was able to do this and cut out snacking and overall this helped me lose weight. 4. get your body into a routine, go to bed and get up at the same time, this helps your metabolism and my sleep clock used to be all over the place. But I believe that settling this into a normal routine helped. 5. Get into the mindset that working out doesn't necessarily mean a hardcore session at the gym. Just walking to the store and back, or round the block once a day is going to burn some calories and help you get just that minimum amount of exercise that you should be getting each day. Walking is free and anyone can do it so there is no excuse! I am sure most of these are repeated but I am just saying they all worked for me. Hope this helps someone :) |
