You can start losing weight made easy.

I want to start off easy at losing weight, what can I do? I have what I call the 5 pillars of success. No matter what level of fitness you are or how much weight you want to lose this can work for you and it’s not too radical. It looks like this:

1. 1.      Eat six times a day to keep your body fueled and running. Each meal should    be  small but carry a big impact. I always try to keep my blood sugar level and from spiking. This keeps your metabolism steady and losing weight is easy.

2.      Leave the processed foods alone. You don’t need highly processed foods which have hidden junk in them and way too much salt. Your food should come from the ground or have a mother, if not think about how good it is for your body. By eating whole foods you’ll be happier and feel fuller longer. This will help you stay on target.

3.      Stay hydrated. Drink water. Drink water and drink more water. You don’t need that can of pop or sugar drink, water is perfect. It will keep you in shape, works with your body’s antioxidant systems.

4.      Eat lean meat. We need protein and I get mine from the veggies I eat but you can eat meat which will keep you happy. The best sources are fish and chicken. Try low fat dairy products like Greek yogurt. Remember to eat lots of fresh veggies and salads during the day. Salad is the main meal.

5.      Be careful with Carbs. Remember carbs come two ways: Starchy and fast acting like breads and pasta which raise your blood sugar levels. Try non-starchy carbs like fruits, veggies and whole grains which help level your blood sugars. Eat good carbs in the morning and after your exercise for you refueling.

You can do this and begin to see weight lost. The more you input into this the better the results.  Start off exercising two times a week for a two weeks and then add day every third week until you are exercising 6 days a week. You should break a sweat when you exercise for two reasons; one to work out toxins and second it lets you know you are working hard enough to lose weight. If you are out of shape then work up to that, never overwork yourself to pain! However, try pushing your heart some and see how you do. Always be careful not to injury yourself. That just slows down the process and bums you out. Remember it took a long time to get this way and it takes a long time to reshape you back to health. Everything is in your power!

To your health,
