Smart Ways To Loose Weight

      We often workout hours together and think there is no change in our weights. In fact, that’s because we wouldn’t have been in a proper diet. Workout and proper diet at the right time will help in reducing weights effectively. I would like to share some information with you:

1.  Sleeping at right time:

                We often have a practice of getting up late and sleeping at late-night which many times affect our body health. We always need to have a proper schedule for waking up and going back to bed on proper time. There is a proverb which best suites this “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise”. 

2. Physical activity for 30 min/day:

               We are always indulged in our work and dis-remember our health so it’s good to spend some amount of time for ourselves. These days things have been more automatic and computerized so we never get a chance to do any physical activates during our work. So it’s always good to spend at least 20-40 min/day in any kind of workout that’s comfortable for you like gym, aerobics, swimming or yoga as you like. This would relax our mind too.

3. Track your BMI:

   Always have a track of your weight and check your BMI (Body Mass Index) and know whether your weight is proper to your height as, if you have a BMI greater than 30 it may lead to obesity. Down is a general scale of BMI.

     

           BMI Categories:

       Underweight = <18 .5="" o:p="">

                                              Normal weight = 18.5–24.9

                                              Overweight = 25–29.9

                                              Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater.

    4. Consume Low fat food:

          Just to start with the diets avoid high fat and high calories food. Just as simple to start stop consuming fried items, sweets, soft drinks, cakes, ice-creams, chocolates, etc. Start eating Vegetables, fruits or fresh juices. Also use less sugar, salt in your cooking and replace rice with roti (wheat).

 5. Change your work space behavior:

     Our work orientation is generally computerized so it is wise to have breaks for at least 5 min for an hour intervals. We always have to follow healthy work space etiquette such as try to take lunch away from desk, go for small walk after lunch, etc.

6. Consume lot of water:

         An advice we often hear from others is to “Drink water” which is very essential as it might flush out toxin from our vital organs is one among its benefit. We generally neglect this advice but we have to drink almost 8 glasses of water that is 1.9 liters if we lack of water in our body it many lead to dehydration.

7.  Never skip breakfast:

     Breakfast tends to maintain and lose weight. Though people skip breakfast in the hope of losing weight they tend to eat more during lunch or even choose unhealthier options later on which results into weight gain. Always try to eat heavy breakfast, medium lunch and light dinner.

8. Consult doctor if drastic change in weight:

       If we have a sudden raise in our weight especially for women’s in the abdomen region it might be because of some medical reasons like PCOS, Thyroid, and Obesity etc. So it’s good to consult with doctor if you feel a sudden raise in weight this will help to know about our body conditions and good health.

       Just give a try to change few habits in your day today life and see a change in your mind and body. Hope this would motivate you for your weight reduction goals as this as stepping stone.

       

How to track your weight

          We often track our weight in our weighing scale in weights or pounds but there are other ways which could help you to motivate the weight loss by the way you measure your weight. Measuring weight every day is not a good habit as our body keeps fluctuating every day so measure weight on weekly basis and on the same time.

1. Using Inch tape :

Our body gets shaped up when we do exercises and when we workout our muscles gets strengthen. So sometimes even though we have not reduced weight we might feel our dresses are quite loose. So keep track of the measurements of your body for a month and see the differences. 

This inch tape measurement will help to concentrate on the part of the body which has lots of fat where you can work out extra to make it feel good and have a difference in your look. 

2. Taking photo of yourself before and after:

Take a photo of yourself before you start a diet plan or workout and every next week along with your tape measurement do remember don’t take a pic of yours after workout do it before workout in front of your mirror. When you do like this you will see you don’t want a body like this and try and take vigor’s workout and diet plans.

3. Tracking of what you eat and the timing’s :

Take a note book write everything that you eat and there timings even from a fruit to chocolate High calories food to low calories food don’t worry just keep noting everything and at the end of the 1 of these things in your note book like :

1. Eaten in un-times – like when watching Television we would have eaten junk foods or drank any soft drinks.

2. Not eaten in equal intervals – We always have to eat in proper intervals of time which we would have missed.

3. No Salad –We would not have taken any salad or fruit intakes on the week at all.

4. Eaten fried items –We often tend to eat oil items fast even a little would make a big difference.

      This list goes on. So when you see that you will come to know your intake is not according to your diet and then try reducing fat foods and follow your diet which will make a great difference in your weight. But don’t forget to write what you eat next week or until you get control on what you eat.

4. Track your weight:

Most often we measure our weight on daily basis which is not correct as our body is flexible and keeps changing every day and night. So it’s not a proper way to track our weight everyday so weigh your weight every week and before workout is an important thing to be noted. Just keep noting down the weight every week as the rest of things you note.

 Just keep everything tracked on weekly basis and later you will feel where we have gone wrong and this would help us to know where we our lagging in our weight reduction and will motivate us to be on proper workouts and diets. 

This is the way i used to follow when I used to go to aerobics classes this helped me reduced a good amount of weight with a good shape of body and apart from all this tracking I used to do workout for an hour everyday which helped me to achieve this goal.

Good Luck :)
