1.Accept the facts. There’s no magic involved in getting your body to burn stored fat. You must change the way you live and the way you eat. You must commit to this fact or you will fail.
2.Do your cardio. 30-45 minutes of intense cardio will not only burn 300-500 calories, but it will also keep your metabolism elevated for up to six hours post workout.
3.Don’t Cheat. You and only you are in control of what you eat. Who’s going to know if you are a little liberal on the salad dressing? You are, so don’t lie to yourself, and only eat what your diet allows. NO CHEATING!
4.Picture the end result. Look in the mirror and picture the future. Imagine what you’ll look like when you reach your goal.
5.Be Realistic. You didn’t gain all your weight in a week, so it’s going to take more than a week to take it off.
6.Eat foods high in fiber. Salads, leafy green vegetables, etc. fill you up with good colon-cleansing roughage with virtually no calories
7.Go low fat. No more than 20 percent of the calories per serving should come from fat. The 20% should come from healthy fats.
8.Rid the house of junk. Junk food can be defined as anything that’s not included in your diet.
9.Don’t shop hungry. All kinds of things can end up in your shopping cart because they look interesting. Prepare a list and stick to it.
10. Make the news of your diet public. Friends and family will show some compassion and not push you to eat calorie dense foods.
Those are the amazing tips for today!! Am sure everyone knows all this, but we all tend to forget about it all when we see a plate of yummmm calorie dense anything.So just reminding :)
