Exercise more and change your calories. If you are eating too little, you will stall your weight loss, if you are eating too much, same thing. |

Calculating calories per gram of carbohydrates, fat or protein is easy. All you need to remember is that: * 1 gram of carbohydrate = 4 calories * 1 gram of protein = 4 calories * 1 gram of fat = 9 calories * 1 gram of alcohol = 7 calories Knowing this, you can figure the number of calories in any food in which you know the grams of the above nutrients. For example, here are the calculations for a slice of bread that has 9 grams of carbohydrates, 2 grams of protein and 1 gram of fat: * 9 grams carbohydrates x 4 calories/ gram = 36 calories * + 2 grams protein x 4 calories/ gram = 8 calories * + 1 gram fat x 9 calories/ gram = 9 calories _____________________________________ Total calories = 53. Happy calculating! No junk/ fried food - Burger patties pastry cakes pizza cold drinks packed juices etc No Fats - butter ghee cream, only refined oil like safola or simple mustard oil not more than 1-2 teaspoons a day. Have more of fruits like watermelon apple grapes oranges guavas pomegranate(anar) pineapple nashpaati(pear) no cheeku(sapodilla) no banana no mangoes No spicy food only boiled vegetable and Rice/ Daliya (rice/ broken wheat) boil it in water and strain it or chapatis with no ghee no butter No paratha puri or sweet items when you feel hungry in between meals have roasted chiwda (pressed/ flattened rice) or laiya/ murhi/ murmure (puffed rice) or roasted jowar/ bajra/ gehu (oats/ wheat) or roasted makhana (foxnut). drink lots of water 10-12 glasses per day 1-2 badam (almond) soaked in water overnight 1-2 Dates (khajur/ chuara) 1 walnut (akhroth) More of leafy vegetables and salads like spinach lettuce beetroot cucumbers cabbage (palak salad patta chukandar kheera pattagobhi) Skimmed milk curd or avoid the top half inch of home made curd. early morning Fresh lauki (common green gourd) juice and after ten minutes 2 spoons of lemon juice with 1 spoon of honey with lukewarm water Dinner at least 3 hours before going to bed Light dinner Phytolacca & Fucus vesiculosus mother tincture 8-10 drops half an hour before meals three times morning noon and evening. Keep a gap of half an hour between the two medicines. Homeopathythic medicine usually are safe with no side effects unless you are too sensitive to medicines. 1 hour brisk walking in the morning and evening Yoga - kapal bhati and anulom vilom (not mandatory - good if done - will give quick results) should be done only under supervision of a yoga trainer. Set realistic goals. Make lifestyle changes like giving up alcohol, smoking, avoiding fatty food, refined food,... Include fresh foods as far as possible as processed foods tend to contain high level of salt and sugar Do not expect immediate results. Never go for crash diets instead reduce weight gradually and slowly. Never skip meals as you tend to eat more, the next meal. Do not skip breakfast in particular. Include lot of fiber in your diet as it gives a feeling of fullness, thereby preventing you from gorging spicy and fatty food. Nuts contain lot of fiber .They are satisfying and cause people to eat less at meal time. use normal milk but boil it multiple times and remove the cream/ malai layer when it cools down. As far as possible avoid weight loss supplements. When you have cravings for certain type of food like chocolates or ice cream, once in a while, you can take in small quantities . Take fruits and vegetables which has lot of water content like watermelons, cucumbers etc. Keep yourself engaged as boredom leads to overeating. Use the stairs instead of lift. Park the car a little far away and walk to your office. Use every opportunity to be physically active. Walk, Walk and Walk as much as possible .Even if you are busy, go for walk at least 5 days a week. while talking on mobile try to walk even if inside the room Aerobic exercise like jogging, swimming, cycling, running accelerates weight loss. Consult a physician before starting any weight loss program. Aerobic exercise combined with healthy eating will certainly help in weight reduction. Make your exercise session enjoyable. Keep yourself free of stress Finally, weight loss is a slow process, so do not get disappointed and give up |

This may sound strange but EAT A LOT! only for one day. eat as much as you want of whatever you want. right now your body wont burn calories thinking its starving.(even if you eat right) once you do this big eating your body will begin to burn calories again. like i said, only for one day. or you could get used to the excessive eating and just regain everything. this may sound strange. but it works. |

Crash diets are never successful because they are hard to maintain. They also slow the bodys metabolism rate as the body will lock into survival mode. When I started on my weightloss regime I had to realise that I had put on weight because of a lifetime of bad eating choices. Serious weight loss can only be achieved by giving your body the right types of calories at the correct times each day, Low Fat Foods DON 'T WORK. You cannot lose weight using Low Fat Diets. Low fat foods have been popular for more than 15 years, but yet our society is getting more overweight as each year passes. This fact alone should tell you that eating a purely low fat menu is not the answer to losing weight. Low Calorie Diets DON 'T WORK. You won 't lose weight using a Low Calorie Dieting Plan either. In fact, eating low calories is the worst thing that you can do to your body, since that will only slow down your body 's fat burning engine and ruin all chances of losing weight (low calorie diets may allow a few pounds of weight loss for the first few days, but then after that all weight loss comes to a halt --- known as a dieting plateau). You can never get slim by starving yourself. Low Carb Plans DON 'T WORK. You 'll probably find it extremely difficult to get slim using a Low Carb Dieting Plan. Low carb diets have recently become popular over the last couple years, but the problem with low carb menus is that they are too strict and TOO HARD TO FOLLOW for average people. Low carb menus tend to rob your body of too much energy (carbohydrates) and make it nearly impossible to remain on the program for very long. This is why so many dieters find it difficult to follow a strict low carbohydrate menu. If you 're looking to get skinny then we have created an Online Diet Generator which can allow you to lose weight fast, and more importantly our diet generator is easy to use (and it calculates all of your meals for you, so that you don 't have to do any work yourself). find-it-hereonline.com/ Page1.html |
