Healthy weight loss diet -do not try to change too much too quickly.


If you are eager to follow a very specific diet and exercise plan, do not try to change too much too quickly. If you have been eating badly and not use, so your




Healthy weight loss diet

One of the biggest problems people seem to be a weight loss diet is a variety of foods that do not eat. Not to mention, the selection of food products are no longer going to allow to eat. Some unbalanced diets (e.g. low carb), this may be true.

The biggest fear  with people have is they get tired and / or bored eating the same food eating again and again .Some people can even say that it is impossible to always eat the even get healthy food every day for a long period without either dropping the diet or simply crazy. Well, first of all, it's not quite true. For the most part, I eat the same food at the same time the same day each week / month / year and have done for years. I realize how crazy it may seem to some, but for me there is nothing wrong with that. It is very convenient and simple. Moreover,  I'm certainly not telling anyone to eat that way and you do not. I'm just saying that some people simply do not need as much variety in their diet. If you happen to be that way too.

However, if you're the kind of person who does not want variety in your weight loss because they do not get tired of eating the same foods over and over again, so this list is for you.

I am separated from food into three categories:
  • a good source of protein.
  • a good source of carbohydrates.
  • a good source of fat .





But remember, the real number one key to a diet to lose weight (or weight loss diet, in this case) has a total of calories consumed. As you learned in phase 1, the weight loss occurs when you have a calorie deficit, that is, to use fewer calories than your maintenance and thus burning more calories than you consume. So when the foods on this list would all make great additions to your diet (and weight loss and health around), you must ensure that your stay in your calorie range. Also, try to stay close to the guidelines proposed in phase 2 of how much protein, carbohydrates and fats in the diet should consist of.

This list can give you a good idea of the variety of healthy foods, you can choose when creating your plan of losing weight or simply an overall healthy diet. As I mentioned earlier, make sure you still end up consuming the total number of calories you right to understand that you should take every day. Also try to balance the calories of protein food containing carbohydrates and fats as recommended.

There are just few things we have control over, but what we put into the mouth is one of them. We must not lose control in a restaurant or a friend, and we did not eat anything that is before us. It is most important to understand what happens when you skip a meal or make a strict diet. When you skip meals, your metabolism slower to save energy. And when you lose weight too quickly for a few days, your body thinks it is threatened by starvation and goes into survival mode. He fights to keep your fat reserves, and all weight loss comes mostly water and muscle. Never skip meals, especially breakfast and snacks between meals. Eating frequently prevents hunger and excitement that follow, provides consistent energy, and perhaps the most effective way to maintain the efficiency of metabolism. Eating slowly gives our bodies time to tell us they are full before we have eaten more than we need our body

Add fruits  , vegetables and whole grain 




People who take healthy foods and mostly unprocessed, including fruit, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and in little quantity of lean animal proteins, most often find they can take all they want without gain weight. If they move from a diet containing lots of processed foods, they think they can eat more yet consume fewer calories - and lose. Historically, the Chinese were eating mostly rice and vegetables with a little lean meat for protein and flavor to anything the American Chinese restaurant dishes of deep fried sweet and sour pork. A step backwards for more natural foods will improve our health and waistlines.

Regular exercise


Exercise regularly not only lose weight faster, are more effective at keeping it off. Practice, it is possible to create a calorie deficit and lose weight without hunger of your body and slow your metabolism. At home, the gym or play sports, participate in two-building activities and aerobic fitness on a regular basis. Not only the exercise itself burns calories, but your body will burn calories at a higher rate, even when you have finished the exercise. If walking is all you can do, so go because it is good for you. But muscle burns more calories than fat, so put a little muscle, if you can and you will burn some more calories just sitting there and looks good. But do not sit for long time. The human body is able to adapt. If you dig ditches without  wearing gloves, you will have calluses to protect your hands. If you sit for  long time , you develop additional padding for comfort!

Take it lightly 



If you are eager to follow a very specific diet and exercise plan, do not try to change too much too quickly. If you have been eating badly and not use, so your body and mind is a lot of adjustment to make. All sugars and fats are actually quite fun, and sitting on the couch is not bad, either. If you try to change everything too quickly the chances are greater that you feel sick, discouraged and give up. So please be patient. There comes a time when a healthy snack taste as good as junk food, got sick to eat, and we look forward to regular exercise....... read more
