3. There are 3,500 calories in 1 pound.
4. Don’t take weight loss lessons from advertisements.
5. Eat 6 small meals per day.
6. If you are eating 6 small meals per day, eat those meals 2 – 3 hours apart.
7. Don’t eat at least 3 – 4 hours before you go to bed.
8. If you do not wake up hungry you are eating too close to bed time.
9. Performing cardiovascular exercises first thing in the morning on an empty stomach daily will improve your body’s ability to burn calories at rest and strengthen your metabolism.
10. Taking a multi vitamin is a great way to supplement vitamins and minerals you may be missing from your calorie restrictions.
11. You can lose weight without having to spend money on products and services.
12. The best weight loss product and service is information.
13. Try serving your meals on smaller plates. This will cause you to have smaller meal portions.
14. Obesity can be derived from genetics.
15. You can get a great workout in at home or at the office. You don’t always need the gym.
16. Don’t starve yourself to try and achieve weight loss.
17. Don’t eat unless your stomach tells you that you are hungry.
18. The Internet is a great resource for free weight loss support, information, tips and advice.
19. Don’t do your grocery shopping while you are hungry. Doing so could cause you to purchase foods that are not part of your weight loss diet.
20. Keep a food journal.
21. Don’t lie or cheat in your food journal.
22. It is ok to have a snack that you like. Just don’t overdo it.
23. It is better to eat a meal than using meal replacement shakes and drinks. Meal replacement drinks are not filling and could cause you to eat a meal right after thus increasing your calorie consumption.
24. Eating carbohydrates is necessary.
25. Increase your daily fiber intake.
26. Fiber contributes to a feeling of being full thus decreasing the amount of food in your meals.
27. Eating fiber accelerates your body’s ability to digest food.
28. The average American has 8 meals backed up in their intestines.
29. In order to ensure that you are burning fat via cardio exercises, make sure you are doing at least more than 20 minutes per session and less than 45 minutes per session.
30. Doing less than 20 minutes of cardio will only increase your heart rate to “warm up” levels. Once you have passed the 20 minute mark you are burning fat.
31. While doing cardio, anytime after 45 minutes is contributing to stamina and cardiovascular strengthening. If your goal is strictly to burn fat, don’t go beyond 45 minutes.
32. Focus on eating good carbs instead of bad carbs.
33. When doing your grocery shopping, start reading the labels of your foods.
34. Take one step at a time when working on your weight loss goals. You do not have to rush your efforts and taking your time and slowly progressing into proper nutrition and exercise will help prevent you from yo-yo dieting and will contribute to changing your lifestyle for lifelong weight loss.
35. Try not to read or watch television when eating.
36. Eat slowly. Give yourself time for your stomach to report back to your brain that you are no longer hungry.
37. If you work in an office do not keep unhealthy snacks in your desk.
38. At work bring a water bottle and keep that on your desk for easy access.
39. Develop a support system. Your support system should be people in your life that are concerned with your well being, will keep you motivated and contribute advice to keep you on track.
40. Start your weight loss program now. No need to wait until Monday or New Years Day.
41. It is ok to have a cheat meal once in awhile. A cheat meal would be a meal that you like but wouldn’t normally include in your diet.
42. If you drive places like the grocery store or the mall, try to park furthest away from the doors. That extra walking would be very helpful (Just don’t forget where you parked).
43. Try taking the stairs instead of the elevator.
44. Consult the mirror to gauge weight loss progress. The scale will only provide you with a number. That number can be misleading.
45. Try tightening your mid section whenever possible. In the car while in traffic, at your desk at work or waiting in line at the bank. Contracting your mid section muscles will literally decrease your waist size and your abdominal muscles firm and tight.
46. Always stay positive. Stop telling yourself that you can’t do it. Whenever you are telling yourself you can’t do something, stop yourself and tell yourself you can do it and you will do it.
47. Stop drinking soda.
48. Stop drinking diet soda.
49. Stop drinking juice with High Fructose Corn Syrup.
50. Stop eating foods that are fried.

Excellent resource. I first saw this post last night and thought I should try some of these weight loss tips today and so fat so good. I have been heavy for over 20 years. I weight 302 and I am 5’9. I diet and exercise causing me to lose anywhere from 60 – 90 lbs every time I am working on a weight loss program. Do you think genetics keeps causing me to regain the weight?
I don’t think the reason for regaining the weight has anything do to with genetics since it sounds like you do have the physical ability to lose weight hence the 60 – 90 lb weight loss segments.
I think what may be happening to you is your hitting a plateau after those 60 – 90 lb loses.
You are probably giving up when you start experiencing slowed weight loss. Not being able to lose the amount weight you where at the start of your weight loss program.
Is this what is happening to you? Are you giving up when you it starts getting harder to shed weight? I don’t like to speculate but when I read between the lines this is what my analysis of your message reports back to me.
You made some first rate factors there. I looked on the internet for the problem and located most individuals will associate with with your website.
Happy to see that the word is getting out.
Personally, I would never want to succumb to regressing to a “believably” natural physique to appease the masses. Doing so would be a sure sign that I had slipped into mediocrity. I’d rather die!
