Hi,
Dieting and weight loss is a pain in the backside. We all know this. But if you have taken the first step on the road to a better life you are reading this. So take heart you can do something about it.
The key to being slimmer is to eat less food.
Simple as that.
Even if you do not change the content of your diet at all and eat less you will lose weight.
Obvioulsy if you eat half your normal amount you may lose weight rapidly. This is not a good idea at all. If you lose weight too quickly you will end up like a bean bag. The skin stretches when you gain weight. When you lose weight quickly you will not allow the skin to go back to its former state because it needs time to adapt. So you end up with too much skin.
Cut down your food for a week, if you are really over weight maybe by a quarter, ten to twenty per cent for everyone else will see a difference. In the second week cook a meal or two at home with good quality ingredients. Take vitamin supplements and drink coffee to speed up your metabolism. Keep this up for a couple of weeks. Gradually cook more of your own food. Drink diet lager instead of wine. Drink plenty of fruit juice instead of sugary pop. Diet pop is horrible, you are better off with fruit juice. The juice will give you a real lift.
