Losing Weight With Nutrition and Exercise is the Key to Success

Leave a Comment

Losing weight requires motivation and desire to achieve your goals of being healthy and fit. There are many tips to lose weight that can help. However, the bottom line is that a person will have to eat properly and exercise more.

Nutrition is key to dropping the unwanted pounds. Consuming around between 1,500 to 2,000 calories a day is all that is needed when combined with exercise. This includes removing virtually all sugars from the diet. Foods like eggs, oatmeal wild rice and water with lemon juice are key to a nutritional diet that should eaten. Meals should be eaten every three hours. Many people assume that by starving themselves that they will lose weight but the reverse actually happens. The body assumes that a person is starving it so when they only get a meal or two a day it will hold on to as much fat as possible. If the body believes it will receive numerous (small) meals a day then it will release the fat from the cells. Eating more often also keeps the metabolism high in the body.

Exercise is vitally important if weight loss is the goal. Simply strolling around the neighborhood is not going to be much use. The heart rate has to get elevated. Using a heart rate monitor is helpful to keep you working out in the right “zone”. Exercises should be done that works a person’s cardiovascular and muscular system. Fast moving exercises like cycling, running and swimming are key to losing inches. Strength training exercises are also key to build muscle and tone areas that are losing fat. When performing strength exercises, whether using body weight or barbells and dumbbells, it is important to remember to keep moving to also keep the heart rate up as well as fatigue the muscles.

Losing weight is really very simple but is not very easy. It takes a desire to do the hard things that a body is not used to. There is a chemical addiction that many people have to food. Breaking one from that is the first step to weight loss. The second is getting people off the couch and moving doing strenuous exercises. These are the keys to weight loss.
