Tips and Tricks to weight loss

# 1 WATER  :)
Drinks lots and I mean lots of water. A lot of us of us don't get enough water in our everyday diets, so we tend to carry some extra water weight. By drinking water you will not only be helping to care for your body better but it will help with flushing out all that necessary  water weight that your body is holding on to. Skip the sodas and fruit juices for the day or just limit yourself down to one.  If you don't like just regular water go to the store and get the little mix in packets to flavor your water They sell them at most grocery stores.
# 2 EXERCISE
Although many of us have very busy lives we still need to exercise. It is a key part in knocking off a few extra pounds. Some of us work others of us have school and kids to care for. No matter your schedule  you can always find five minutes here and their to do a little something. It could be running or walking in place or for those of us who don't like to do that or prefer not to you can do sit ups and push ups. They both work you ab region and help you build muscle. Muscle weighs more then fat but helps to burn fat so gaining muscle is never a bad thing. When you have the time just look up work outs on the internet you will find many different things. A quick workout that I do every day is 15 sit ups, 15 push ups, 15 side sit ups,15 lunges, 15 squats and I try to make sure to go on youtube and look up the choreography for some of my favorite songs so I can dance to them. This only takes me around a total of 15 minutes.

# 3 Eating Right
A part of losing weight the right way is eating right. No this does not mean starving yourself. When you starve yourself yes you will loss weight will you keep it off? No I use to starve myself all the time to lose a few extra pounds and i would gain it all back with my bad eating habits sometimes I would even gain more. Try to watch what you eat. You don't have to diet to lost weight you can lose it by eating all your favorite foods if you wish. All you need to do is cut back the portions. Let me just say I love and I mean love junk food cake, cookies, pie and ice cream a few of my many favorite foods. I don't think I could live without dessert. I still have dessert just about everyday I take what I am going to eat and cut it in half. I by doing this I still get what I want but less of it . But if you are serous about losing weight and being healthy your going to have to pay more attention to what you are eating. Greens along with less grain and more fruit are going to be apart of that change. Different body types need different things to lose weight. Their are three main body types ectomorph, mesomorph and endomorphs. Take a look and figure out which is your and this will give you more of a idea what you will need to eat. If you don't want to look into it now that's ok I will be a post on each of the body types and weight loss tips for them.


I hope that all these tips have help you in you weight loss journey. I wish you the best of luck it takes time but losing weight can make a major difference in your life I will be adding more to this list of tips as time goes on and adding new post so keep your eyes out for those.


Trick # 1 Share your dessert
If you think bout it sharing your dessert with someone can be a great way to cut out a few extra calories. By sharing it you are helping yourself out and possibly even the other person. Did you know pound is made up of  3,500 calories? That's lot of calories don't you think. But by sharing your dessert your taking only half of the calories from that dessert. This can be done in other meals too it doesn't just have to be dessert.
