Weight Loss Secrets – Not Secret Any More

Losing weight is now Americas number one obsession. If you look at the most common search results in Google, you’ll probably notice that more people are looking for ways to lose weight than almost any other search.

Here are 3 time-tested tips that will help in your struggle to lose weight:

1. How much you weigh is a function of how many calories you take in versus how many you burn. Here’s the formula for a person with an average level of activity. First, decide what your ideal weight is. Multiply that number by 14 and that’s how many calories you can take in each day to maintain that weight. For example, if your ideal weight is 150 pounds the formula is 150 * 14 = 2100 calories.

2. You’ll lose weight better and faster by blowing off your diet once a week. Let’s be honest, you can only be good for so long before you have a relapse. Pick a day of the week and go off your diet. Eat anything you want and get it out of your system. Next day, get right back on the diet. Having a scheduled, controlled relapse will help ease the pressure and keep you from going on a permanent relapse and forgetting the diet completely.

3. Watching television makes you fat. For one thing, if you’re watching TV you’re likely to miss the signals that your brain is sending you telling you that you’re full. You’re also more likely to ignore what your stomach is telling you and wait until the commercials to stop eating. Don’t let TV tell you when to start and stop eating.

If you’re one of the millions of Americans trying to lose weight it’s important to try not to be in too much of a hurry. It would be nice to be at your goal weight right now but healthy weight loss takes time. Even though gaining weight is a lot easier it didn’t happen overnight so it would be unreasonable to believe that losing it would either. The most important thing to remember is that changing your lifestyle to eating healthy food and exercising will not only help you lose weight but it will help you keep it off, too.
