5 Powerful Weight Loss Tips 

4/2/2013

 
Summer is coming quickly (yeah!), and I am hearing everywhere, concerns about weight and how people will look in their summer wardrobe.  It is one of the biggest concerns I am hearing among my clients.

Here are 5 Powerful Weight Loss Tips to help with looking great this summer:
  1. Start the day drinking warm/room temperature Lemon Water ~ This helps support immunity, alkalize the body, aids digestion, clears the skin and promotes healing.
  2. Sleep ~ make sure you are getting 8-12 hours (depending on age) per day.  Taking a Calcium Magnesium Supplement, camomile tea, or using aromatherapy (like lavender) before bed can help you sleep better.  In a 7-year study of 7,022 middle-aged people, Finnish researchers found that women who reported sleep problems were more likely to experience a major weight gain (defined as 11 pounds or more).  
  3. Portion Control ~  it is important to know how much a serving size is for you and your family.  Here are some examples to help you relate to proper serving sizes:

   4.  Exercise ~ get moving!  A great place to start with exercising is to take a 30 minute walk every day.  A pedometer is one tool to help you know how many steps you are taking.  Also, getting an exercise 'buddy' is a fun way to incorporate this into your daily life and it will hold you both accountable to your goals.  
   5.  Journaling ~ Writting down your daily triumphs, concerns, thoughts, what you are eating, exercising and all that you are doing that day ~ can really make a difference to your success.  This is a great tool to help you know what your day looks like and how you can move forward.  You may be surprised all that you are eating and lack of movement you are doing...  Studies show that a journal doesn't just aid weight loss — it turbo-charges it. When researchers from Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research followed more than 2,000 dieters who were encouraged to record meals and snacks, they found that the single best predictor of whether a participant would drop weight was whether the person kept a food diary. It trumped exercise habits, age, and body mass index. The number of pounds people lost was directly related to the number of days they wrote in their log.

Just by incorporating these 5 Weight Loss Tips into your day, you will speed up your journey to having that Amazing Summer Body!
