A 5 Step “Anyone Can Do It” Weight
Loss Guide
Hi Everyone,
I've set up this website as a helper to anyone who is having problems losing weight and is looking
for a simple and easy to follow weight loss guide.
You'll find inside numerous tips and advice designed to help you lose weight fast, get six pack abs and
ultimately achieve your desired weight and body.
Most people try to lose weight in a very disorganized manner. They try and cut some calories here
and throw in some exercise there. This very rarely works.
Instead, the people who really succeed at losing weight are the people who have a plan and stick to
it.
In this weight loss guide, you’ll learn to construct your own plan to burn those calories. We’ll go
over some of the most important steps to losing weight so you can decide what to incorporate into your own life for
your weight loss goals.
Step 1 – Finding a Friend or Supporter
Research has shown that people who have supporters will succeed much more often than those who try
and go at it alone.
That’s why organizations like Weight Watchers are so successful. The mere fact that someone is
watching whether you succeed or fail will have a large influence on how you behave.
The person you choose could be a professional, such as a personal trainer, or just a personal
friend. It could also be a connection from somewhere like Weight Watchers. The most important thing is that you get
a supporter ASAP.
Step 2 – Start a Food Journal
Kaiser Permanente did a study of about 2,000 participants and found that the people who kept food
journals had a much higher success rate at losing weight than the participants who didn’t.
A food journal will enable you to see exactly what your eating habits really are. Most people don’t
actually have a good conception of how many calories they’re eating and often underestimate this amount.
Start a food journal. In fact, according to the Kaiser study, keeping a food journal is the number
one most crucial thing you could do to lose weight; more important even than exercise or the contents of your
diet.
Step 3 – Implement a Consistent Workout Schedule
Start with a 20 minute walk a day, 4 to 5 days a week. The most important thing is that you get on
a consistent schedule.
It’s much easier to start light and get used to a schedule than to start out intensely. You can
always raise the intensity later. To start, just get used to exercising on a schedule at regular intervals.
Make sure you give yourself a congratulatory pat on the back every time you complete your workout,
no matter how easy or hard it was. Positive reinforcement is a key component to cementing in any habit.
Step 4 – Start to Eat At Home
Eating at home will give you a lot more control over what actually goes into your food. For
example, a plate of fried rice at a restaurant will usually contain copious amounts of salt, soy sauce, sugar and
often even MSG.
At home, you know exactly what’s going into your food. That makes it much easier to steadily eat
healthier and healthier foods, because you’re the one who’s actually making the food.
Start eating at home. Here are a few tips for losing weight once you’ve made the transition:
-
Use less salt. Sodium increases the amount of water weight your body holds. By reducing the amount of
salt in your diet, you reduce the amount of water weight you’re holding at any given time.
-
Use smaller plates. Smaller plates create the psychological effect of having eaten more. You also eat
slower, which induces a feeling of fullness faster.
-
Eat more often, eat less. Studies show that smaller meals eaten more often are much healthier than
eating larger meals all at once.
Step 5 – Review Your Journal and Revise
Every week or so, review both your food journal and your workout habits.
What are you eating? How many calories is that? What snacks are you consuming often? Where was the
biggest surprise in eating habits? What’s lacking in your daily intake?
After a couple week of tracking, you’ll be able to see patterns that you almost definitely hadn’t
noticed before.
Start changing your habits, gradually. Most importantly, cut out snacks and high sugar foods. Stop
eating anything that says “high fructose corn syrup” or “partially hydrogenated fats/oils.”
Do a similar review with your workout habits. How many days did you plan to work out? How many days
did you actually work out? What were your results? Adjust accordingly.
If you follow these 5 steps, you’ll put yourself on a steady path to losing weight. It won’t happen
overnight, but it will happen – And when it does, you’ll have the habits in place to make sure that it stays
off.
