5 Tips for Easier Weight Losing

<h1>5 Tips for Easier Weight Losing</h1>Author: <a title="Terry Lile" href="http://www.articlesbase.com/authors/terry-lile/86280.htm">Terry Lile</a> Going on another diet is certainly not a favorite thought of most of us. For me I would rather think about going on a roller coaster that makes me hurl than to even think about dieting. Weight losing is a challenge for many of us and yet it really need not be that way. Each of us needs to remind our self that obesity is not only an appearance issue it is a serious health issue that has almost become an epidemic in the United States. Obesity is associated with hypertension, sleep apnea, heart ailments, diabetes, some cancers and other health issues. Obesity shortens our life expectation and the solution is weight losing. Since we realize that we need to lose weight here are 5 tips that will help you. You have likely heard many of these tips before and will hear them again. If you are like me sometimes we need to be reminded of something more than once for the idea to really sink in. 
<ol>
 <li>Start a log a simple small notepad that will fit into your pocket or purse will do. Keep track of everything you eat and drink. Estimate the amount and when you ate it. Note what you were feeling when you ate. Were you hungry or just felt it was time to eat? Were you happy, sad or stressed? Just simple notes that you and you alone will see. Also enter all physical activity into your log. This can be anything from walking, doing housework, and gardening to walking stairs instead of the elevator. The idea of these notes is to give you a better understanding of your physical activity and what you may need to do to promote better calorie burning. After one week analyze your log and see what you actually have been eating, how much, when and how you felt. This will help you better understand why it may be difficult to maintain your weight. </li>
 <li>Plan how you are going to go about weight losing. What type of a diet fits in best with your lifestyle? Is it an organized plan where you attend meetings? A medically supervised plan? A plan where they prepare meals for you? When looking at different plans it is more important that you select one that you can live with for long term than to select one only because it promises quick weight loss. </li>
 <li>Once the original week of maintaining a log is over where you analyzed what you were eating and the amount of physical activity you were getting continue on with that Personal Log. The log becomes like a “nagging parent or spouse” it watches over you and you don’t want to do something wrong because you know that you have to write it down. Your log also enables you to better understand why you are perhaps adding weight back on instead of losing it. </li>
 <li>When you fall off the wagon and cheat just pick back up from where you left off. All of us are going to be tempted from time to time and sometimes we just need to have that slice of cheesecake or chocolate bar to remind ourself we are still human. </li>
 <li>Look for easy ways to add to your exercise such as parking your car farther away from the main entrance to the shopping center to using stairs instead of the elevator. It is really amazing how many more calories that can be burnt by adding to your body movement this way. </li>
</ol>
I wish you the best on your weight losing success!
