3 Easy Slim Down Strategies

Look, it's going to take your some considerable time to lose all the excess weight you've spent so much time and effort putting on your long suffering frame. You have to acknowledge that or your weight control diet will be doomed to dietary failure for the term of your natural life. You know that you have to be into a great weight control diet and regular exercise program for the long haul.

But being only human and extremely impatient with yourself, now you've decided to lose weight, you want to see some quantifiable results now, today, before afternoon tea (perhaps tip number one should be Skip Afternoon Tea?").

So here are 3 simple tips to speed up your new slimline frame.

1. Eat breakfast. Not just any fatty, sugary and/or salty excuse for breakfast sometime in the middle of the morning purloined from a major fast food chain or greasy spoon cafe. Eat a high energy complex carb type breakfast when you get out of bed. Get up earlier if you have to. Breakfast is important. This is the food that is going to give you the energy to power through to lunchtime without a calorie laden stomach-stretching morning tea to overturn your best weight control aspirations.

2. Drink heaps of water. At least 2 litres per day. You will pee like a draughthorse and become intimate with every bathroom in your orbit, but you have to do it if you want to lose weight and keep it off. Water hydrates you and fills you up. It staunches food cravings and flushes toxins out of your system.

Don't worry, it does not make you fatter! While you're at it, wean yourself off the sugary drinks - your tastebuds will stop protesting eventually and kick the sugar habit if you hold out on this one.

Personally, to kick my aversion to plain old water, I visualised myself stranded on a deserted island. I figured I'd be grateful to find a fresh water supply to keep me alive, so the bottled and carbonated waters that were available to me as part of my weight control diet became more desirable in my fevered (deluded?) imagination. The important tip not to miss here is that my harmless little daydream worked for me.

3. Get moving. Walk for at least 45 minutes (preferably an hour) every day. Start as you mean to go on. (Hey, do not forget to take a litre of water with you and make sure you drink the lot - that's half your daily water quota done).

Set the duration of your daily exercise by earmarking the amount of time and time of day that you will walk. Over the weeks and months (gasp, yes walking is forever) you will go faster and therefore further every day, but you won't need any more time for it. Walking is the single most successful exercise done by people who have lost their fat and maintained their goalweight. Be one of these people.

Employ all of these simple slimming strategies and you won't just lose weight, you'll feel great as well. It's a bit of a commitment but well worth the rewards.
