What is the Healthiest Way to Lose Weight?



This is a query weight conscious people ask again and again!
So here is a short document featuring 10 top tipsto help you lose weight 
naturally and quick.
At first glance, this list may appear a small daunting.
However the important thing to keep in mind is that to make large changes in your 
weight, you only must make a few tiny changes at a time, until your ideal 
weight is achieved and maintained.
Always keep in mind successful weight loss is about LIFESTYLE CHANGEnot crash 
dieting, which all of us know, never works in the long run.
So work through the suggestions, after the other and try to select a couple of 
ideas that you can TAKE ACTIONon now, and then come back in a couple of 
days and pick a few more.


OK … So you want to know how to lose weight naturally and fast? 
…. well here goes:



1. Drink Plenty of Water


Our body needs plenty of water â�¦ so give it water! Water is not a way to 
flush out toxins and impurities. In the event you have more water in your process you will 
usually feel healthier, and less hungry. Dehydration is and a major cause of 
headaches and migraine. And of coarse, water has no calories at all! 
As soon as you wake up, have a glass of water. Itâ��s a brilliant way to start 
your day and you only need a little glass together with your breakfast after that. 
Drinking plenty of water cleanses your stomach and digestive process. You may 
have your morning cup of tea but stick to water after that.

2. Stay away from sweetened bottled drinks


especially sodas. All those colas and fizzy drinks are sweetened with tons of 
sugar and sugar means calories! They are also filled with chemicals â�¦ flavour 
enhancer's, colouring, preservatives etc. The more you can cut out sweetened 
bottled and canned drinks and the more water you drink, the better you will 
feel.


3. Include in your diet fresh food that contains more water


(eg tomatoes & watermelons). Some foods contain 90 to 95 % water so 
you can feast on them without adding pounds to your waistline!


4. Eat fresh fruit instead of drinking fruit juice


Juice is often sweetened either with sugar or artificial sweeteners, whereas 
fresh fruit only contains natural sugar (sucrose). When you eat fruit, you are 
also taking in lots of fibre and vitamins, essential for a healthy body.

5. Go easy on tea and coffee.


Tea & coffee are harmless in themselves but when you add the 
milk/cream & the sugar... thats when they become fattening. Did you know 
that having a cup of tea or coffee with cream & cubes of sugar is as bad 
as having a massive piece of rich chocolate cake!


6. Go crazy on vegetables


Vegetables (like water) are another “secret weapon” when it comes to losing 
weight quick. Leafy green vegetables are your best bet. Try to eat, as much 
salad in your diet as you can you will feel so much healthier if you do


7. Eat intelligently


The difference between man & beast is that they are driven by intelligence 
while beasts are driven by instinct. Donâ��t eat something because you feel 
like eating it. Ask yourself whether your body needs this piece of food at 
this time  discipline & will power are your keys to long term success

8. Control that sweet tooth.



Remember, sweet things  always mean more calories. It is natural that 
they have cravings for sweet things chocolates & other 
confectionary. However, take this weight loss tip seriously ... go simple on 
sugary things & each time you consume something sweet understand that 
there will be a cost to pay!


9. Set Fixed Times to have meals and stick to it.


Try to have food at fixed times of the day. You can stretch these times by half 
an hour, but anything over that is going to affect your eating pattern.
The result will be that famished feeling that puts your diet under pressure & 
could lead to you breakingâ...& stuffing yourself with lots of  a bad foodâ...!

10. Avoid snacking between meals.


Do not fall into the trap of constantly snacking between meals. This is 
especially true for those of us who have to travel a lot. We may feel that the 
only way we can get a bite to eat is to use café snacks and junk food. The 
main problem here is that most snacks and junk food are full of fat, sugar, salt 
and saturated oils. Just think … those French fries may look tempting but they 
are terrible nutritionally speaking.
