5 Easy Tips to Lose Weight and Keep it Off

October 28, 2011 Michelle Homan Leave a Comment

Many people are able to lose weight, but few are successful it keeping it off in the long term.  The ones who are successful have made the necessary lifestyle changes that enable them to maintain their healthy weight.  Try these 5 easy tips to help you lose weight and keep it off for good.

1.  Nix liquid calories

Studies have shown that reducing liquid calories significantly affects weight loss.   Cutting soda and other high sugar beverages could cut daily calorie intake by 100-300 calories or more.  Replacing those drinks with pure water will keep your body running clean and free of extra weight.

2.  Rebalance your plate

Making most of your plate fiber filled fruits or vegetables is a sneaky way to fill yourself up the healthy way.  Instead of adding extra pasta, opt for an extra spoonful of broccoli.  You still reap the satisfaction of munching away, but also get the fiber your body needs to keep weight off.

3.  Take the long road

The more the body moves, the more calories are burned, and subsequently weight is maintained or lost.  Decisions like parking farther away and choosing the stairs are small decisions that can add up to big weight loss benefits.

4. Enjoy in moderation

Depriving yourself of foods that bring you comfort and joy will inevitably lead to diet resentment.  Enjoying your favorite foods in moderation, or as a reward, will enable you to continue with healthy habits for the great majority of your days.

5.  Feed your soul

Leading a happy fulfilled life can give you the power to make healthful decisions that will positively affect your weight loss goals.  Find time to keep life balanced.  Just 20 minutes a day to read, walk, or listen to music can recharge your soul.

Small lifestyle changes can add up to make a big difference.   Focus on a balanced, healthy lifestyle each day to lose weight and keep it off for good.
