Hope Pope asked:
Need some weight loss tips? Well, there are many out there. Some, which I think are very dangerous, are “artificial weight loss tips” such as taking diet pills.
I took a couple of diet pill in college about 20 years ago and I can still remember the pain I had. I had it for about 2 weeks. It was so severe that I never touched another diet pill again. There have been studies done that have said how dangerous some diet pills can be, too, so I would stay away from them and work on all natural weight loss tips.
The basics to weight loss are you have to burn more calories than you consume. For years… when I was single and had no children, I would eat anything I wanted up to about 1800 to 2200 calories a day and then exercise about 2 hours a day. I was able to stay within 114 to 118 pounds for a long time.
Ok, in came marriage and a child. With marriage, I instantly gained 5 pounds and then with a child, well, you know how that goes. As a woman, you get maybe a minute of time to yourself a day so exercising 2 hours a day was out of the question.
I needed another way to increase my metabolism besides exercising a lot and taking diet pills.
First of all, anything hot helps increase your metabolism. Hot sauce, hot peppers, hot tea, etc. But if you don’t like hot which I typically don’t, here are more weight loss tips…
Cut back on carbs. I have always struggled to keep my weight down… always had to work real hard at it. I can remember at 12 years old going to the track to run because I struggled to keep weight off even at that early age. However, a read a book recently that has helped me majorly with weight loss tips. If you cut back on carbs, you will find you have a much easier time losing weight. Think about the carbs that you eat and then only eat half of the carbs you typically eat.
Even fruit has carbs so be careful. The older I get, the more I have learned that we only need a little bit of fruit each day.
Also, increase your protein. I have never eaten much protein but now I eat more and it definitely helps with weight loss.
And those are your weight loss tips for the day.
