The more muscle you have the better you look. Even if you
had two people of the same height & weight but both
had different amounts of muscle in their bodies--the person
who has the most muscle will always look better.
Are the outrageous claims that the weight loss ads make
true? Can you lose 60lbs in 30 days or 10lbs overnight?
The answer isn’t No but a big Maybe.
But if you do happen to lose 60lbs in 30 days you’re
only going to look worse (because of the muscle you lose)
and you’re going to gain it all back quicker than
you lost it (because you’re metabolism is slower now
that you lost muscle)
What if you have to lose 10lbs in one week to pass a physical
exam? In this case you may have no choice but to go on “Dr.
whoever’s rice cake diet” to lose 10lbs in a
week. All you’re looking for in that situation is
a quick fix to your weight loss problem.
But if you want to lose weight for good, look your best,
& keep your metabolism burning at a steady rate…
You got to lose weight at a much slower rate.
You want to try to lose no more than 2lbs a week or 3lbs
at the most when you want to lose weight permanently. Usually
when you lose anything over 2lbs a week you are only losing
water and muscle weight which again has no effect on long-term
weight loss or significantly improving the way you look.
Losing 2lbs a week is a lot simpler than trying to lose
10lbs a week. One of the things you can do to start losing
2lbs a week is to substitute higher calorie foods you eat
with lower calorie foods.
For example a simple trick that I have most of my clients
do is to replace all the sodas and juices they drink with
water. The drinking water trick is taken very lightly by
a lot of people---but many of my clients tell me that they
see a difference in their weight after drinking only water
for a couple of weeks.
The other thing you can do is to increase your daily physically
activity. This doesn’t mean that you have to start
signing up for marathons regularly. To gradually increase
your physical activity you can--
- Park in the back of parking lots so you have to walk
more to your destination
- You can take the stairs instead of the elevator—it
doesn’t have to be all the flights…walk some
flights and take the elevator the rest of the way.
- Play golf or play with your kids everyday
The point is to just do something…It doesn’t
have to a lot at first but after about a couple weeks start
to take 20-30minitue walks in the park or ride a bicycle
everyday.
Long-term weight loss doesn’t happen in 60 days or
overnight… it happens in the Long-term. Just remember
that the next time you see a weight loss ad that promises
you unbelievable results.
