8 easy ways to lose weight
Eight weight-loss tips that are easy to implement and stick to.
From HealthSmart Magazine December 2010
1. Decide on one major goal, such as aiming to lose five kilos. Then create smaller, weekly goals, such as aiming to lose 0.5kg to 1kg per week, so you can easily monitor your progress and stay motivated.
2. Use a smaller plate so that you’re aware of portion sizes and don’t mindlessly overeat.
3. Drink two glasses of water before or with each meal.
4. Don’t eat on the run. Ensure you sit down for every meal and take time out to plan and prepare your meals once a week.
5. Make a smoothie with frozen fresh berries and low-fat milk if you’re rushing and in need of a snack. Delicious and healthy!
6. Offer to walk a neighbour’s dog or arrange to meet a friend for brisk, regular “walk and talks” this summer, instead of catching up via phone chats. The time will fly!
7. Keep and carry a food and exercise diary, making sure you update it daily.
8. Put a photo of a happy, healthier you on the fridge door or biscuit tin for that little bit of extra motivation.
