Diet Tips

By Gayle Weise


Weight control is probably one of the hottest subjects of our age; we see a lot written, asserted, demonstrated and sold to help reach it. Naturally, some products are designed by folks who need to make cash from this hot niche, while some of the others are positively non-commercial, but often a bit radical or unrealistic. Nevertheless most consultants agree that one of the finest tactics to shed some pounds is through healthy nourishment. Here are some pointers to help achieve this easier.

One thing you don't want to do is stop eating completely, or drastically drop your calorie intake. This will put your body into starvation mode and is a very unhealthy practice. You need a slow decrease in your calorie intake and start to eat healthier foods.

If you only reduce your ingestion of calories, you won't achieve much. From another perspective, if you add some exercises, you will shed pounds much more successfully. Remember that right and healthy nourishment is only step one for weight control after that you are going to need to make some physical efforts, too.

There is this common misunderstanding that the less you eat, the more weight you lose. Nothing like that! The matter is not in how much you eat, but in what you eat. So you can eat as much as you do now and lose weight. However, you may start eating once a day and still maintain your weight or even gain more. The solution to this is: eat wisely! Count your calorie intake and make sure you eat healthy food that gives your body a lot of energy and less calories.

If these terms mean nothing to you, make sure you get to know them and regard them as powerful weapons in your battle against weight. BMI (Body Mass Index) shows you whether you are underweight, with normal weight or overweight by taking into consideration your height and weight.

BMR shows how much energy is required by your body when it is at rest to explain, how much energy you really need to have so as to survive if you do absolutely zip. TDEE is total daily energy spending, and it shows how much energy is employed by your body for doing what you do each day exercises, sleeping, walking, working, for example. Using these 2 indexes sensibly will lead you the best way to reduce your calorific intake and boost your activity without hurting your body.

It may be how good/attractive you will look and feel in your body or what health benefits it will bring you, but you need to motivate yourself in order to lose weight. Otherwise, you will keep your diet and exercise reluctantly and will eventually give up. Remember: losing weight and controlling your nutrition will help you deal with a series of conditions like high blood pressure, cholesterol, heart problems, problems with your joints, etc.

To cut a long story short, no one says that weight loss (or weight loss through healthy nutrition) is easy. However, if you are really into it, there are tips that may help you, such as adopting a new diet gradually, exercising, monitoring your calorie intake, using BMI, BMR and TDEE and being motivated. The other precious advice for everyone who wants to lose weight is DON'T WAIT! Start now and the results will be achieved sooner. Good luck!
