How To Kick Start Weight Loss

By Howe Russ


At some stage most of us will hit a plateau with our diet. If you are looking at how to lose weight and perhaps struggling to push on to the next level, you will find the two simple steps given in today's article to be incredibly useful.

The steps we bring you today simply work. They are proven and they will not cost you a thing. In a world where every man and his dog only seems to want to sell so-called miracle products or push certain supplements at people to make a commission, we know you will enjoy today's article as it will never cost you a penny.

When trying to get rid of unwanted body fat, there's a couple of really easy to follow steps which will help you get there faster. They are even easier than you probably think right now.

Rule Number One - Snack Tubs Are Proven.

Rule Two - Days Off.

Ask anyone who has tried dieting and failed what their biggest enemy was and they will probably all tell you the same thing. Temptation. Usually temptation strikes when you're at work. You don't have any prepared food with you and you can literally feel the vending machine staring you down. We have all been there at some point.

It's stocked with unhealthy foods. Believe it or not, your body doesn't actually crave that chocolate or those crisps as much as you think. You long for the quick fix satisfaction you associate with it, that's all.

You do not have those yearning hunger pains in your stomach because your muscles are desperate to ingest a chocolate bar. The nutritional values are terrible, after all. Instead, you crave it because you associate it with a quick fix feeling of being happy and comfort eating. This can tear your diet apart.

By packing a few small snack tubs into your satchel each morning, each filled with a small protein rich meal, you enable your body to completely bypass any tendency to long for junk food. The protein will also have a smaller impact on your body cell's fat storage.

This easy trick is usually enough to eliminate junk food cravings at work completely. Not only do you feel fuller and work more efficiently because your body is actually using the nutrition now, but you also don't want to waste food you prepared at home so you subconsciously force yourself to stick to it.

The second tip is just as important. Taking a day off your diet each week may seem like a nonsense idea but the fact remains most people fall off their healthy lifestyle plan because they attack it too hard and deny themselves their favorite foods from day one.

Most people how try to lose fat go too hard too fast. They cut out their favorite foods and think they need to live off 'rabbit food' to get slimmer. This is nonsense, and a sure fire way to fall off your plan very fast.

Give yourself a break. In fact, I mean that literally. Give yourself a twenty four hour break every week.

Sure you might consume more calories on this day than the rest of the week but you cannot do very much damage here unless you deliberately go crazy. Remember, there is a difference between a cheat day and Christmas day. In fact, enjoying your favorite snacks or junk foods on one day per week or one day every two weeks actually turns out to be a good thing for your fat loss goals because you will find you can stick to your healthy lifestyle for far longer than you have ever done before.

Simply drag and drop these two simple rules into your current diet and you will see results. So many people ask us how to lose weight in the gym and they expect an over complicated answer, but sometimes the simple solutions is all you need.
