LOOSE WEIGHT

The magic formula to loose weight is to consume more energy than you intake. Energy is consumed through physical activity, whereas it is replenished through what you eat. So if you want to loose weight it is important that you increase physical activity and eat less.

Unfortunately today’s lifestyle does not help in the process of loosing weight, as many of us have jobs always sitting down infront of a computer. Moreover, many of the free time is again spent sitting down infront of a television or video game console playing some adventure game. This is totally different than the way our grandfathers used to spend their free time.

It is of utmost important that if you are not keen on physical training activities, after a day’s work you engage and relax through some sort of sports or hobby such as gardening, swimming, cycling, etc… It is also important that you do not stop performing activities which involve physical efforts such as washing the car. Nowadays many people go to a car wash to have their car cleaned. You may also try and reduce the use of car. If you want to go to a nearby store, do not use the car but go by foot. All these small hints piled up together, help to consume more energy and eventually prevent from gaining more weight or even help to loose weight. Remember weight is lost when you consume more energy than you intake.

Apart from increasing physical activity, the other variable in the formula of loosing weight is to reduce the food intake and as much as possible eat healthy food. You must eat food with less fats, carbohydrates and calories. It is thus recommended to start reading the nutrition labels of the products you are purchasing when at the grocer. Similar food may have different amounts of fats and calories depending on the brand. It is also important to try and speed up your metabolism rate. The faster your metabolism, the greater the rate at which your body consumes energy. This helps to loose weight more quickly. You may stimulate your metabolism through eating smaller portions more frequently.

Take care that the daily intake through the smaller portions you eat does not exceed the usual daily intake as you would be making more harm than good. If you manage to eat less than you used to, and are eating six times a day, your metabolism will definitely speed up.

Eating the right amount of food and performing some kind of physical activity, does not only have benefits on the body but also on the mind.
