Weight loss programs and diets? How to lose weight easily!
What is the best and easist way to lose weight and show a weight loss? You are about to learn two simple secrets that will guarantee easy weight loss.
The first big secret:
The most powerful factor in weight loss
Have you ever noticed this:
People who have lost a lot of weight through successful dieting and exercise always want to encourage everyone else to lose weight. “If you want to lose weight,” they say, “I will show you how I did it.”
But even though they tell this to all the overweight people they know, the “fatties” will always ignore the advice — unless one factor is present. And this is the biggest secret to weight loss. If this factor is present, any overweight person can lose weight easily.
What is this secret? It is motivation.
What is motivation?
Motivation is the answer you give when someone says “Why do you want to lose weight?” Do you have a strong reason?
If you desperately want to find someone to marry and you believe you need to trim down to attract someone, that is a powerful motivator. If your doctor has told you to lose weight or you will be dead in 12 months, that is a powerful motivator too.
If you have been promised a lot of money if you lose weight, or you are a jockey who needs to lose a couple of kilograms to ride in a big race in a few months, or you are an overweight actor who has just landed a film role to play a skinny person, you too have a powerful motivating factor.
Whatever your reason, it must be a strong motivation for you to lose weight. Without it, you are not yet ready to lose weight. It's as simple as that. That's why not everyone who goes to weight-loss clinics or tries hypnosis loses weight. They are too content with their life as it is. Motivation is missing.
Of course the motivation could simply be to lose weight so you will look better and find it easier to move around. Overweight adults often try diets to lose weight or to stop wrinkles. Overweight teens can feel shunned until they determine to lose weight. If your motivation is strong enough, you will find it easy to lose weight.
“Think thin”
You must want to be thinner — you must be thinking more of the thinner, better looking, healthier, leaner, lovelier you than of how nice that cream bun looks. If you can imagine that cream bun sitting on your hips or tummy when you look in the mirror, it will help you decide whether you want to eat it and be about the size of a cream bun fatter, or ignore it and look a cream bun thinner.
So the biggest secret to losing weight is motivation. If you have a powerful reason to lose weight, you will. It's as simple as that!
Got motivation? Then read on for two easy weight-loss plans that will work for the rest of your life. (There are other tips in our Teen Topics section that may also help desperate adults: Easy ways to lose weight for overweight teens.)
One plan below lets you eat what you are already eating and slowly lose weight; the other shows how breaking up meals can help you lose weight more quickly.
The second secret:
Plan No.1: The “non-diet” diet
If you are overweight and find it difficult to stick to weight-loss programs, try this “non-diet” diet. We have never heard of a failure with this diet for those who genuinely make it part of their eating routine. It is natural, painless, and sensible.
The 10 per cent diet doesn't require a change in what you eat, just a slight change in how much you eat. It will help you steadily lose weight for as long as you like.
In the Bible, the practice of tithing (giving 10 per cent) was accepted as a responsibility toward God since the time of Abraham. The Hebrews gave 10 per cent of their livestock, grain, and fruits to the priests. Many Christians today follow this principle by giving 10 per cent of their income to the church.
Tithing helps others while instilling self-control, charity, and thoughtfulness in the giver.
Avoid that last bite
The 10 per cent diet works in a similar way. It means you eat about 10 per cent less than you normally would. Take nine bites and leave the tenth. Cook nine spoonfuls instead of 10. Mentally divide your meal into 10 parts and give the tenth part to your dog (if one part looks bigger than the other nine, make sure the bigger one goes to the dog!)
It doesn't seem much, but after 10 days you will have eaten only nine days of your normal food intake. After 10 months you will have eaten only nine months' supply of food. If you make sure you do even simple exercise (such as walking briskly or bike riding for 30 minutes) and cut down on foods loaded with either fat or sugar, it may contribute another 10 per cent or more weight loss.
This easy way to lose weight makes you think before you eat. You don't cut down so much that you still feel hungry, yet you continue to eat what you eat now — if you want to. You can lose weight even more easily if you replace high-fat/high-sugar foods with low-fat/ low/sugar foods.
Simply buy less, cook less, and eat less. You will feel better while you save money and watch that excess weight slip off to reveal the real thinner, lovelier you!
Plan No.2: The Eat More Meals Diet
To lose weight more quickly, you can follow the Eat More Meals Diet.
The Eat More Meals Diet changes your pattern of eating to give you healthier eating habits without leaving you hungry. It is designed to get you into the habit of eating for health instead of for pleasure.
You need to get out of your regular routine of having 3 big meals a day (with constant in-between snacks), or skipping meals to try to lose weight. Instead, plan 4 meals a day of better food that is filling enough to prevent you from wanting to snack.
It works like this. For the next 10 days, plan 4 meals a day made up from the following foods. Eat two or three of the items in each meal, but over the day try to get a variety — so you will be getting a good mixture of vitamins, fibre, protein, dairy, and nuts.
- Salad or cooked vegetables
- skinless chicken or chicken slices
- turkey slilces
- ham
- fish
- fruit
- baked beans
- cheese
- milk
- frozen yogurt
- nuts.
Cross out anything from that list that you can't stand.
Drinks should include lots of water, but you can also have diet drinks, coffee and tea as long as you use an absolute minimum of sugar and honey as sweeteners if you really need them.
The idea is to get you through the day with healthy foods that stop you from feeling hungry. Leave at least two-and-a-half hours between each meal.
Example
Four meals (some are really snacks to fill you until the next meal):
1. Ham or tuna salad (lots of lettuce and tomato, plus maybe cucumber and onions), and as many peanuts as you want. 2. A pear, an orange, and a plum, with as many cashews as you want. 3. Turkey slices and cheese slices (as many as you need to feel satisfied). 4. Grilled, steamed or baked piece of fish (no batter or crumbs), plus a salad made of beans, lettuce, celery, tomatoes.
Try to get cashews, macadamias, peanuts or some other filling nuts in at least two meals each day, with just one other item accompanying it (grapes, cottage cheese, salad, etc.). Vary some of the items you put in your garden salad or cooked vegetables so that each tastes a little different.
And get out of the habit of thinking you always need cereal for breakfast (or ham and eggs or sausages or whatever). Try a different breakfast, like a bowl of mixed vegetables and a frozen yogurt, or chicken and fresh fruit. Two or three times in the 10 days you could have a sandwich with one of the other items, or have a bowl of unsugared cereal.
Stagger your 4 meals across your day, but make sure you have the 4 meals, even if you don't eat much at some and eat a lot at another.
Weigh yourself early on the first morning, before you have anything to eat or drink, then again every three days, and again at the end of the 10 days. After 10 days, spend the next 2 or 3 days having something different (if you want to).You should now be in a pattern of finding what fills you and how much you need to keep going without feeling hungry.
There is no limit on portions, but common sense will tell you that stuffing yourself won't lose as much weight as just feeling satisfied. Remember, to lose weight you have to eat for health, not for pleasure.
