Are you ready?
Lets begin:
Secret 1. You must Eat Right! Your body is a miraculous machine. Like all machines, it needs clean fuel for best performance. Most people think that healthy food is boring food. You don't have to eat boring food to get fit. For a healthy, balanced meal, all you need is healthy complex, carbs, protein and veggies. You must however, avoid at all costs MSG, corn syrup and processed foods.
What are processed foods? Processed food is any manufactured food. Processed foods are easy, cheap and convenient. If your food comes with preservatives or was made in a factory, it is probably processed. You should eat good tasting, healthy food instead of food created in a factory.
Why are processed foods bad for you? Processed food makes your body slower and weaker. Process foods do not give you good, sustainable energy. The reason is that your body has to work harder to digest man-made chemicals than it does to digest natural ingredients.
Junk food can also make you emotional. Alcohol, drugs and (yes ) food all work the same way. Your body will react to what you put into it. Junk food (like other chemicals) can cause emotional highs and lows. This brings us to our next point, Junk food is toxic and causes acne in some people.
Your skin is an organ, when you eat bad food, your body must detox. This results in cystic acne (the worst kind) and I.B.S. (upset stomach). Finally junk food can make you fat. Junk food contains unnatural ingredients, excessive amounts of fat, sodium, sugar, MSG, etc.
Now, the bad news; Eating good while eating clean takes work.
You will need to cook your own food or hire a personal chef. If you are like me, you can't afford a personal chef. Cooking is very easy (when you follow recipes). Cooking can be fun and you can even involve your spouse / family.
But you say; I have no time! If you do not have the time, turn off your TV for 1 hour and use that time to cook all of your meals for the week.
Or, if you really need to watch your TV show, place a TV in the kitchen so you can view your channel while you cook. Kill 2 birds with one stone. Then fry one in olive oil and bake the other. Cooking fresh does not have to be boring or hard to plan. There are millions of pages dedicated to easy recipes on the internet. Just be sure you avoid too much sugar and too much salt.
Completely avoid premade foods, this includes sodas and fast food. If you have a sweet tooth, you can eat cookies, cake etc. But remember, you must make your own bread, cake or pastries. These treats taste way better than premade. Even cake mixes are bad as they too have all kinds of junk ingredients. The rule is that you have to make it fresh and you cannot use processed ingredients. Now, you can't eat just cake, but less than 60 years ago many skinny people had dessert every single night. Those people were in better shape than people (on average) today.
- Why make your own food? If you make your own food, you will burn calories while you make it. Also, if you cook it yourself, you will think twice before you just mindlessly pig out. Sitting in your car driving to the local fast food joint doesn't burn as many calories as standing up and cooking your own food.
- What to do? Cook in bulk. Bake chicken, fish, veggies or meats. You can bake several different kinds of entrees at once. While baking your protein, make side dishes on the stovetop. Once done, you can store them (fridge or freezer) in plastic containers. Microwave these containers for a quick meal throughout the week. Cooking at home is a fraction of the cost of eating out. Like all living things, you need to rebuild. This ONLY happens through rest and food.
Secret 2 You need to Sleep well. Your body needs rest. Most people do not rest enough. Sleep 8-10 hours each night. If you are getting enough sleep, you won't even need an alarm clock to wake up.. If you go to sleep early, you will wake up refreshed. If you go to sleep late, you will want to sleep more. Early to bed can be hard at first, but if you follow the other steps, you will want deep sleep and your body will demand it.
Secret 3. Exercise to burn energy. Food is made of calories. Calories are a unit of energy. Energy not used is converted to either fat or waste. Use more energy than you eat, you will lose fat. How can you use energy? Move more. "Couch to 5 k" is an excellent running program. You tube is full of boot camp type exercise videos. P90X is good program too.
Any exercise program will work as long as it meets these requirements: - You must sweat - You must be exhausted at the end - You must challenge yourself as much as you can (every time) - You must do some kind of exercise you want. Do moderate physical activity that you enjoy.
Secret 4. Stay Motivated! If you are embarrassed at the gym, you will soon hate the gym and then shortly after, not go at all. You don't need a gym membership, you can work out anywhere. How? Get active! Go for a long walk uphill. If you have no hills, go for a walk at the park. If you don't have a park, find some stairs (hotel, office, whatever). Run up and down the stairs. If you can't run, walk up and down. If it's sunny, go swimming. If it's cold, go ice skating. If you are bedridden, get some mail order weights and move your arms around.
However, the best moderate exercise is walking upright, uphill. Physics tells us that energy use is highest when moving against gravity. Walk uphill. Run uphill. If on a treadmill, you NEED TO NOT LEAN! Leaning on a treadmill is not a workout. Stand up - feel the burn. It's weakness and fat leaving your body.
Secret 5. Have fun. A boring workout is work and usually you need to be paid to go to work. There are many workouts where you can have fun and not be bored. Ride a bike, walk in the mall (without stopping), walk on a beach, go swimming at the beach, etc etc. The gym can be fun too, but use some variety so you don't get burned out or bored.
These weight loss secrets require work but will work for you. Try it for 3 weeks and you will see a noticeable improvement.
