th SEPTEMBER 09:WEIGHT LOST

To lose weight, it is mandatory to eat low calorie foods. Besides that is it also important to exercise to experience weight lost. Low calorie foods are foods that are low in fat and sugar. The more you reduce the intake of fat and sugar, the better it is.




Some may not have their breakfast and lunch and only eat dinner to lose weight. This is not a good practise. If you do not have proper meals, it will lower your basal metabolism rate. Basal metabolic rate is the amount of calories burnt in a resting state.




If you want to experience weight lost, it is important


a) To have 3 meals a day, i.e. breakfast, lunch and dinner. Some may experience hunger in between breakfast and lunch. It is advised to drink lots of water when you experience hunger in between meals. The hunger could be caused of dehydration. When body is lacking of water, you will feel hungry.




b) Eat slowly. The slower you eat, the better it is. This is because the body takes 20 minutes to give signal to stop eating and feeling full whenever you start eating. If you were to eat fast, you will tend to eat more. If you were to eat slowly, you will tend to eat less and feeling full.




c) Eat more vegetables and fruits as they are low in calorie and high in fibre.
Furthermore vegetables and fruits take a longer time to digest and abstain from
feeling hungry fast.




d) Eat low calorie snacks. Pop corn, sandwich and yogurt are examples of low calorie
and healthy snacks.

water as much as possible.




Do not consume pills to lose weight which can cause side effects. Dieting and exercising is the best, safe and guaranteed way to experience weight lost.
