One - Goal Setting
Decide what you want to achieve and set
your goals. For some of you, it might only be a couple of
kilograms or pounds. And for others it may be a complete body
change such as body building or body sculpting. Developing more
muscle will help you to look lean, trim and strong. This type
of body will also burn more calories more effectively and
typically when you sleep.

Two - Portion Control And
Frequency
Watch the size of your meals! It may be
suggestive to consume five - six smaller sized meals throughout
the day. Your body can digest the food alot quicker and it can
also help increase your metabolism. You could try changing the
size of the plates that you eat from. Maybe you could change
your lunch and dinner plate to a bread and butter plate. You
could also put your cereal into a coffee mug as this is a
better indication of the recommended 30g serving.

Three - Discover your weakness
Keep a diary of the foods you consume
over a three to five or seven day period. Note the time, the
amount you ate, what it was and why you ate it. Emotional
eating can be a big contributer to becoming over weight. We all
do it! We can chose to eat when we are upset, mad, happy,
annoyed or joyous. Emotions can create hungry monsters. Once
you have determined your weaknesses around the types of food
you eat and why, you can then determine alternatives
to eliminate those impulse actions of unnecessary
eating!

Four - H2O to go please
Water is one of your biggest defenders
against hunger pains in between meals and snack. Water is a
natural appetite suppressant and it can help flush those
unwanted toxins from your body! Look to drink around 8 eight
glasses of water per day. It may also help clear your skin and
it will definitely keep you hydrated.

Five - Look in the mirror
Jumping on the scales every morning
might not be the best idea. With additional water intake, the
scales can fluctuate from one day to the next. If you are half
a pound heavier than the day before, you may give up! Instead
get your gear off, stand in your underwear and notice the
changes that you see in front of you. Tape measures are good
too, however if you don't have the tape measure in the exact
same place then the measurements may alter. The other option is
to use your clothing as a way to measure your weight loss
progress.

Six - What's for breakfast?
Skipping breakfast will just out right
ruin your day. Breakfast helps us burn calories throughout the
day by getting our metabolism going and fueling our bodies for
daily activities. Eating this meal will help you concentrate
more, it will stop you from over eating. Fuel up with some
rolled oats, honey, sprinkled with ground flax seed and trim
milk. Guaranteed you'll feel satisfied.

Seven - Move that butt!
Get active. Now's the perfect time to
get moving. Park the car a few blocks away from work. Or even
better yet just walk to work, ride a bike or take the train.
Partake in anything that is going to make you more active.
Depending on your goals, any physical movement is going to be
better than nothing at all. For those of you with spare cash, a
personal trainer might be your best defense against the bulge!
And Pt's are wonderful motivator's.
