Practical & Sane Weight Loss Tips

Written by Margaret Acklin 1 Comment

There are a lot of weight loss tips and plans out there. You will be amazed by the number of weight loss suggestions and tips which don’t help most people. Why is that? It could be either the tips they are getting are not at all reliable, or they may have understood the tips, but don’t really follow them. That is why weight loss is a personalized goal. It relies mainly on your efforts and devotion for you to see results. It is really up to you to make use of the resources and knowledge for your own benefit. Today there are new facts regarding weight loss and here are some of them.

Sleeping More Could Help You Lose Weight

Did you know that when you lack sleep, a hormone called "Ghrelin", is produced by the stomach and released into your body. This stimulates hunger and digestive function. When you are awake, you feel starving all the time. You will eat more and the tendency is for you to gain weight. Some basic tips include not eating three hours prior to sleep and keeping your bedroom cool which will help you get a good night’s sleep. Also avoiding caffeine and any stimulant prior to sleeping is ideal.

Work Stress, Television Viewing and Caffeine Promote Weight Gain

All of these can increase your weight so better watch out for them. When you are stressed out you tend to eat more and get depressed. So try more ways of relaxing and relieving stress. Watching television or playing too many computer games won’t help you. Get a move on and do some physical activities.

House chores and cardiac exercise would definitely work for you, and they are effective in decreasing your weight.

Caffeine is one substance that makes you hungry. You can get better alternatives, so limit your intake of coffee to about one to two times a day. Green tea is one good alternative that offers you alertness and a bit of weight loss due to the reported boost in metabolism.

Water Before Meals Helps You Lose Weight

Drinking water throughout the day revitalizes the body, and when you drink water 30 minutes prior to eating it will enhance digestion. Make sure you drink your eight glasses daily.

Eat Less? Not Necessarily

Also you don’t have to eat less, you just have to learn to eat differently and wisely.

It’s basically all about alternative. So choose healthy alternatives instead of your regular fast food, junk food and greasy food selection. Instead add your vegetables, fresh fruits, and whole grain and all other healthy food items.

Lastly, don’t rush on your weight loss plan. Haste makes waste, focus more on quality and gradually change your activities and diet. It is best to go slow but achieve positive results. Good luck!

    Sleeping well will definitely help u lose weight. But, i am not convinced abt the water drinking tip. Too much water swells u. U must drink only as much as u are thirsty. Why give body something that it doesn’t need that much?
