I have gone up about 5 kilos, which seem to have come on secretly! I know all about intense slimming, diet, exercise, calorie consumption, etc. In theory it should be easy for me to remove this weight, but it isn't and it has become almost a fixation. If I could only stop thinking about it and do what I have decided to do, it would go away. But I think about it all the time, above all because I always feel fat. What shall I do in order to think sensibly? Have you any weight loss tips for getting rid of those final kilos?
Answer:
You describe the problem in a way which makes it difficult for you to
solve it. Overweight of 5 kilos is not the basic problem, but it is a
result of your way of life. If you want to go down 5 kilos, you need to
modify your eating and exercise habits. Join a weight-reduction group or
meet a friend once a week, weigh yourselves, encourage each other to eat
better food and begin to exercise. As you want to weigh 5 kilos less, you
must reduce your food intake permanently by 200 calories / day.
Here are a few basic tips:
-
Try to have real tasty meals instead of sandwiches, cakes and goodies. Eat
fruit for snacks.
-
Eat only when you are hungry and stop when you are satisfied.
-
Don't comfort yourself with food. If you feel bad, contact your feelings
and try to find out what is wrong. Try to solve your problems instead of
stuffing yourself with food.
-
Try to get interests and activities where food is not the main thing.
-
If you eat at night, eat fruit or something else with few calories.
-
If you tend to buy chocolate on the way home from work, avoid this habit
by not taking any money with you.
-
If you often empty the refrigerator, fill it with low calorie wholesome
food and throw away butter, cheese and cream.
-
Salad, fruit, soup, fish, lean meat, vegetables, potatoes and porridge
taste good without causing overeating.
