Fastest Way To Lose 100 Pounds
This is a brief and short article about steps you can take to lose weight now. It does require you take action if you want to see results
Weight problems are always an issue that bothers both men and women in almost any age range. The sad truth is, it is not very easy to lose those extra pounds that one can easily gain. However, with the right attitude and knowledge, even the most impossible feats can be realized.
There are many types of dietary regimens that you can try; however, most of these will leave you deprived and even more depressed. You may have stuck to one diet and then went back to your old eating pleasures after some time and these acts of yoyo dieting eventually will pose even more harm to your health.
If you are seriously overweight and want to lose, let’s say, a hundred pounds, what exactly can you do to achieve this? 100 pounds may seem like a big number to you; however, it is matter of seeing this in a positive light. It is also a matter of simple applied physics. Burning more calories than what you eat will make you lose weight.
Losing a hundred is a big challenge and though many dieticians and health practitioners recommend a healthy weight loss of two pounds per week, your 100 pound goal can be started with a structured plan that will provide you with a brief fast weight loss spurt that will get you motivated in shedding off the rest.
This weight loss plan starts with the preparation stage. In this stage, you will:
1. Spend a couple of weeks in tracking your current diet in your journal. You will need to note down all the food that you ate, including all the drinks and snacks you’ve taken. Take note of the portion sizes, however, do not weigh every thing on the scale.
2. Note all the calories of the foods you ate. This can be found in the nutrition facts panel of the food’s packaging.
3. Write the caloric value of all the foods you eat. An online calorie calculator can help you with this. Note these amounts next to your journal entries.
4. Sum up all the calories you ate per day. Add them all up and divide by 14. This will give you your average calorie intake per day.
To kick off the main weight loss process, you should:
1. Eat a thousand less calories than what you did prior to starting your dietary regimen. Plan and prepare all your meals in advance.
2. Start a healthy diet with just the calories you need. Eat more vegetables and fruits. Avoid carbs and sweets, soda and fruit juices. Take a multivitamin to supplement your nutritional needs.
3. Brisk walk for half an hour everyday.
4. Get forty minutes of interval training – alternate one two-minute fast paced and one two-minute easy paced exercise.
5. Take one day of rest from your exercise routine.
6. Do all these steps for one whole month.
7. After a month, add 500 calories to your diet from veggies, fruits and proteins.
8. Walk everyday for 20 minutes.
9. Your cardiovascular activities should be reduced to thrice a week on alternating days.
10. Do resistance workouts thrice a week.
11. Do these steps until you lose the rest of the weight and you will reach your goal in less than eight months.
