Quick tips on how to lose weight without dieting

Healthy Weight Loss Tips – Nutrition by Natalie

Now that the rush of summer has died down I felt it a good time to share some practical tips which I’ve found to be quite useful when losing weight in a healthy way. If you focus, be aware and put your mind to what you are feeding your body you can lose weight like me. Using Arbonne products combined with the support of coaches, trainers and making good choices of food, I have lost 50+ pounds since September ’09. If you are overweight, feeling lethargic, and not happy then think about making a change and feel the difference!

1. Eat as much organic foods as possible.
2. Eat a well balanced meal for breakfast. Eat nothing that is high in sugar or you will feel lethargic and not be as efficient as you need to be.
3. Eat high fiber foods which will give you less cravings for food throughout the day and keep you full longer.
4. Drink water- drink ½ of your body weight in ounces. Water helps detoxify the body and will increase your metabolism and improve your digestive function. Start your day by drinking 8oz when you wake up.
5. Pay attention to what portion sizes you are eating. The standard food serving size is 3-4 oz of meat, a deck of cards. 1oz of nuts is the size of a ping pong ball. One cup of raw vegetables is a serving. ½ cup of carbohydrates is a serving. It’s real easy to overeat if you are not paying attention to how much.
6. Eat between 5-6 meals a day, this is better than 1or 2 larger ones. Your body needs food to function. Plan accordingly, have breakfast, a snack, lunch, a snack and dinner.
7. Do not eat after 8 Pm. Choose whatever time is good for your schedule but don’t eat late.
8. Limit sweets to 1-2 times per week. If you want sweets, go out and buy them but don’t keep it in the house.
9. Buy the smaller size. Sugar is addictive and your body craves it.
10. Avoid soft drinks. Regular soda (1 can of coke) has a ton of sugar, 16 teaspoons. Diets soda has 0 calories but has artificial ingredients that are not healthy for you and will wreak havoc on your metabolism.
11. Keep unhealthy junk foods away as far as possible. Avoid temptations if you can.
12. Keep emergency food on you, in your purse or your car. Fresh dried fruits, nuts or whole wheat grains like flaxseed crackers or quick energy items.

It’s all up to you, as it’s your personal responsibility to take care of your health and well being. Only YOU can make the choice to take care of your health. Making good choices and eating healthier will make a difference in your health and overall well-being. ~Bonnie
