Question:
Answers:
*Drink LOADS of water. No, don't drink, GUZZLE. Not only is it really good and flushes toxins outta your system, but if you drink enough it kinda tricks your brain into thinking you're not hungry. Make sure you're getting at least 2 litres a day!
*Don't eat when you're hungry, because if you do, you tend to overeat (the brain takes 20 mins to realise that it's full so if you eat until you feel full you will regret it later) so have a set kinda schedule to eat - why not use your school routine like the times when you have break and lunch and stuff.
*Drink herbal tea. Actresses like Eva Longoria drink this a lot because it tricks the brain into thinking it's full (and it's more effective than the water thing) and so they don't need to eat as much.
*Walk instead of driving. If you can't walk, cycle. If you can't cycle, keep moving your feet around in the car.
*Get up 10 minutes earlier everyday, turn on the CD Player and dance like a total LOON, it's the best time of the day to exercise because it gets your metabolism going faster.
*Have a good breakfast EVERY morning, it also gets your metabolism going faster.
*If you're a crisp/potato chip addict, confuse your brain by having an apple. The crunchiness makess your brain think that you're eating crisps/potato chips.
*Try diabetic chocolate - it doesn't have as much sugar and fat and stuff in.
*Satisfy your chocolate craving by eating sugary fruits - this type of sugar is good for you in moderation.
*Swap fizzy drinks for pure fruit juices.
Hope this helps, and good luck with the weight loss, but don't go crazy xo
P.S. I don't really know about metabolism, but I know it's good if it's quite fast.
look on the side of the packet of the foods you are buying under fat don't buy anything over 3g fat per 100g i did this and lost heaps of weight
Diet is 70% of the battle. If you want to lose weight, it's all what in you eat. you can run 10 miles a day but if you're eating junk, then you're going to lose. Some people take dieting too literally... the problem with that is they starve themselves and get malnourished, then your body starts eating away at muscle. Dieiting shouldn't last for a month or two. You need to change your eating habits permanently. That's why soooooo many people get fat again after a diet. You can try something like Nutri-System, which is good at teaching you portion control as well as the difference between good and bad "carbs"
To successfully lose weight, you must carry out
a plan to balance your caloric intake with exercise.
Ideally, dieting should be done by eating a nutritionally
balanced, low-calorie diet and increasing physical activity.
