Research shows that people are more likely to stick with their workouts and exercise longer if their incentive to break a sweat goes beyond losing weight or fitting into skinny jeans.

Researchers at the University of Michigan found that women who exercise to lose weight or to become more toned, do almost 40% less exercise, and walk 2.5 times less than those who work out for other reasons, such as reducing stress, to feel energized or simply increasing their well-being. They feel exercising to shape their bodies is something they’re supposed to do – which is less motivating.

Think about ways your health habits are enhancing your life, beyond looking good in a sexy outfit. For example, your workouts can boost your mood and make you feel more powerful and confident. You won’t see the heart attack that you prevented, or the other diseases that you’re warding off – by exercising and staying healthy.

So, constantly remind yourself that by keeping the weight off, you’re reaping a multiple of benefits.

1. Clear your environment of unnecessary calories – weight loss requires that you take charge of your environment. Try to get rid of high-calorie, high-fat foods that are in your refrigerator and kitchen, and replace them with healthy, low-fat options.
2. Non-stick is the way to cook – always cook with non-stick sprays and pans. That way, you’ll automatically save 100 calories each and every time (because you’ll be eliminating the margarine, butter or oil that is used to grease the pan). Or, when frying or sauteing, try to coat the non-stick pan with a spritz of vegetable oil cooking spray. Also, try to use fresh, full-flavored ingredients (to cut the need for fattening oils and butter to add flavor).
3. Frozen dinners are low calorie – supermarkets stock numerous delicious low fat meal alternatives. Simply add vegetables and fruit to boost the nutrients, and you’ll save 300-500 calories every time you have a frozen dinner instead of ordering fast food or having a high-fat meal. You can have four (4) frozen dinners per week and be in with a chance of losing a minimum of 18-30 pounds per year.
4. Don’t deny your sweet tooth, satisfy it – if you deny your sweet tooth, almost certainly, binging will follow. Satisfy your cravings with a low-calorie (120 calories) that you can have everyday. Try to limit your intake of ‘rich’ desserts to just once a week (you’ll save approximately 380 calories per day for six days).
5. Try the dilution solution – one 32-oz soda has approximately 400 calories. Try to fill your cup with ice every time that you have a soda – so you end up drinking maybe as little of a half of the liquid that the cup can actually hold. Also, try to gradually substitute soda with water, sparkling water or natural juice – to cut calories permanently from your diet on a daily basis.
6. Eat slowly and don’t stuff yourself – let satiety register. It takes the stomach 20 minutes to send “full” signals to the brain, but you’ll save approximately 100 calories each time that you stop eating when you’re almost full (instead of eating until you’re stuffed).
7. Cut down your meat intake – eat less meat, and eat more of certain types of meat. If you eat fish instead of red meat four times per week, you’ll save 200-300 calories every time. Try to grill, broil or steam your preparations.

Good luck!

How about these options for an alternative approach to burning calories and losing weight! Each of the items above will help you to burn an estimated 50 calories

What are some good sources of fiber? Brown rice, nuts, peas, beans, fruit, cloudy fruit juices, vegetables and vegetable juice. So, what are you waiting for, get some fiber going in that diet!

How to tell if you’re losing weight the healthy way (by reducing your fat stores) rather than dehydrating yourself:

• Any diet promising that you will “lose 10 pounds in one week!” (or 20 lbs) should probably have in the fine print that you’re likely to regain it the following week.
• Watch the rate at which the scale changes as you lose weight. If you lose more than 2 lbs in a week, chances are that more than 60% of what you’ve lost is actually water, and maybe even some much-needed muscle tissue. Unfortunately, you’ll gain it all back once you start eating normally again – because the body needs to maintain a certain level of hydration in order to function properly.

More on fat loss vs. water weight loss soon!

• For all three meals for the day (breakfast, lunch and dinner), eat fruit salad, grapefruit, apple and orange. Drink green tea, or black tea with lemon, and one teaspoon of honey (to increase your metabolism)
• This weight loss technique will allow you to lose unneeded liquids, and a bit of fat; it’s especially good for those moments when you need to look and feel your best
• It is important to note that this diet should only be done once per week

Good luck trying the one day fast!

• Limit foods that provide unnecessary calories and that offer few nutrients. Focus on the quality of what you eat, rather than the quantity. Very importantly – limit your consumption of desserts, sweets, butter, margarine, salad dressing, oils, sugar and high-fat snack foods.
• Eat smaller portions of food from the four food groups. Pay attention to portion size and don’t eat too much! Smaller portions will help you to stay at a healthy weight.
• Drink lots of water. Water is important for general health, and also to prevent constipation. Other fluids that are sources of water unclude milk, herbal teas, decaff coffee, vegetable juices and fruit juices.
• Get adequate vitamins and minerals. You may need to take daily mineral and vitamin supplements. Important ones include Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, calcium and iron.

1. Choose the same rest day each week and fast until 12 noon.
2. The other six days of the week, eat a heavy breakfast before 12 noon.
3. Take a fat reducer or other weight loss product such as Generic Phentermine on a daily basis
4. Take 1 teaspoon of fish oil every breakfast morning (6 days a week)
5. Drink 1 cup of Licorice (or Green Tea) on the one morning of the week that you fast
