How To Have Fun Losing Weight

You know what is not fair? The fact that it is a lot more fun to gain weight than it is to diet & exercise. That has to be of the actual reasons why people don't like to lose weight, right? I mean it only makes sense. If doing what it took to be at your ideal weight was more enjoyable than what it takes to gain weight, they hadn't have an issue with obesity.

It doesn't must be that way anymore.  Imagine if it wasn't such a drag to get healthy, to lose weight, to eat right or to exercise. I am definite you can see what a positive impact that could have on how much you weigh. Here are some ideas you can put to make use of to make it fun.

  The first thing you need to do is change your mindset. Don't be concerned about what other people think about your running, or what your overweight friends will say when you order grilled chicken for lunch. You know why you should not worry? Because it is your body! Let them laugh. You can laugh with them or laugh back at them. Either way, you'll get the last laugh & that is the best kind.

Alright, let's face it, you certainly already like to eat, otherwise you would not must be looking for ways to lose weight. This is a guess, but what you certainly don't enjoy is eating more of the right foods & less of the not-so-good ones. You can give the lovely foods comic names, & vice-versa. You are not eating broccoli, you are eating "goody goody mini-greens". & it is no longer a doughnut, now that you call it a "sweetened lard bombs". Go ahead, be creative.

Also, don't deprive yourself. You can still eat all of the foods you enjoy, not as much. In case you try to cut them out all together, that would not be any fun at all. In lieu you would be focusing on the deprivation & bury your head in to a half-gallon of ice cream as soon as your willpower wavered. But when you eat a tiny of the things you like, there is no need for willpower at all.

 When it comes to exercising to lose weight the main key is to do something you enjoy doing. get moving. You don't must go for a three-mile jog or lift weights in the gym (unless you require to). Get out in the garden, go for a walk, toss the frisbee around, go swimming...any additional activity that appeals to you will burn off additional calories.

Finally, as you do these things more, it will get to be even more fun as you do them. & seeing the results is makes it even more worthwhile. So, don't let others tell you that losing weight is hard. You know better, you now know how fun it can be.

THE TRUTH ABOUT MENOPAUSE, WEIGHT GAIN AND "THE POOCH"

By Colleen McCleery, MD, OB/GYN—Exuberan® by Virtua Menopause is a mixed bag of little surprises. While most women look forward to saying goodbye to tampons and pads, far fewer are excited to now experience hot flashes and night sweats. And it’s probably fair to say that weight gain is the least popular and often least expected “side effect” of this hormonal shift. Considering many women struggle with their weight on a good day, it’s not surprising that this is the number one complaint from patients who are going through this transition.
