Okay, one of the tough challenges faced in modern times is the issue of losing weight or, lemme say watching ones body in other not to gain weight. But another most disappointing thing is the level of risk people take in other to lose weight; they try engage themselves in diets that is dangerous to their health (some diets is definitely dangerous to the health),take all sorts of weight loss pills, they exercise vigorously and starve themselves unnecessarily (this I am guilty of). But sincerely, Losing weight is hard. okay, I am not discouraging you from keeping up with that weight loss schedule. I am only saying there are ways you can do it without getting waist cramps and giving up the joy of eating totally. Here are some not so discouraging and not so serious ways you easily lose weight.
1.
DRINK WATER BEFORE EATING: drinking water before eating will do the trick of making you eat less. Water will actually make you feel fuller thereby reducing your food intake.
EAT SLOWLY: The reason some people think they eat too much is actually because they eat too fast. Because they are hungry they assume what they need is a plateful of their delicious meal. logically speaking and health wise, the slower you eat the faster you kill your hunger pang ( that eating desire). So, eating slowly does not only make you get full fast but also help reduce your food intake.
3.
STOP THE 'EAT ALL NO WASTE ATTITUDE': In my house, growing up, there was this ground rule, " eat all your food, there is no room for waste". The rule ensured that we stuffed ourselves hard even after getting so full. as we grew, our food horizon grew too. we ate so large bowls of food that we got scared of going to visit relatives. The rule still exist but it now balls down to knowing the required quantity to prepare. So I tell you this from experience, break loose from 'eat all no waste attitude'. Do not force yourself to go further.
TAKE A WALK: yeah, this is whack I know. Lets reason together, there are places that you can just walk to without stress (Okay, you will sweat a little). Forget taxi, okada and just walk. Burn a little calorie and save little money of hitting the gym.
5.
AVOIDING EATING LATE AT NIGHT: This one is a little bit hard to do I know. Especially when you have to close late from work, wait for hubby or mama to come. But look at yourself, you know there is a way round it. Whenever I come home, my parent knows late night eating is prohibited. If there is a food roster or routine, and the ingredients are not yet available by six p.m, we go for something else ( not saying that 6 p.m is late though). Another reason why I so dislike eating late is the excess belly fat it add to the existing one ( I am trying to get my abs in order for God sake).
REDUCE YOUR STREET FOOD: sorry to say this but most street food vendors care less about your health, they are all about taste and profit. The most method of cooking used by street food vendors is frying. Frying increases flavour and taste I know, but at the same time, it is major source of fat in the body. Now talk about the sugar, salt and other things that shouldn't be taken in excess. Try preparing your meal yourself, that way can easily watch your fat intake.
7.
ENGAGE IN GROUP EXERCISE: Truth be told, going to the gym requires not only commitment but commitment, commitment and commitment again and it can be pretty boring at times. Try something new; join the football training team close to you, engage yourself in exercises that requires you being amidst people, especially your friends. This way exercise becomes lively and losing weight becomes fun.
8.
ALWAYS DO THE DANCE ALONE THING: this might sound childish but how well can you show off those your worse dancing steps if not alone in your room dancing yourself to sweat. I try this a lot and it quite relieving as it does not only burn calories in the body but also makes you feel light and happy. Just try this often with the best of your music jams, for thirty minutes to one hour and you are good.
9.
BE YOURSELF: This, you will say is not practical. Many people has ended up doing more harm to themselves, getting diagnosed with eating disorders because they felt so inferior and had low self esteem. They wanted to be fast with losing those pounds of fat thereby engaged in dangerous means to do this. Be confident about yourself, acknowledge the fact that it will take time and engage in the steps carefully. Do not feel intimidated and just be yourself.
