• Count how many calories you eat in a normal day. Thats right, wake up and eat like you would normally eat and count the calories in everything you eat and everything you drink and keep track of it on a piece of paper or on the computer somewhere.
• At the end of that day, add up the number of calories you ate/drink. Be as exact as possible.
• Starting the day after you counted calories; eat 500 calories LESS than you normally do. So, lets pretend that the day you counted calories you counted 2000. For the rest of the week, you would eat 1500 calories a day.
• Instead of eating three big meals a day (breakfast, lunch and dinner), or eating all day all the time, spread those calories out over five smaller meals. Eat one meal every two and a half to three hours. By doing this you can speed up your metabolism.
• Cardiology workouts is an important part of weight loss. If you are serious about losing weight, but dont want to do the cardiology workouts, then you are requiring your diet to do all of the work. Jog, walk, swim, jump rope, ride a bike, take an aerobics class, whatevercardiology workouts + proper diet = better than just doing one of the two.
• At the end of that week, weigh yourself. Youll notice a difference just after one week! Now, dont expect to see a 20 pound difference. But if you have a LOT of weight to lose, you can lose it.
