Stop Gaining Weight
Many people gain weight simply because they consume too many calories. The problem is our eating patterns become such an ingrained habit that it can be difficult to reduce the number of meals, snacks or food eaten daily. For example, people working in an office or factory may have regular tea breaks, and if everyone seems to be eating, it may be hard to resist a little something, even more so if the break is in a canteen.
To help reduce the chances of excess energy adding to the mid-region I have a habit of always doing something to burn 200 calories before I eat. It works because I never feel guilty or regret eating a meal; I feel that I have earned the right to enjoy the food I’m eating. I still try to keep calorie intake down when attempting to lose weight, but this technique really helps so that I can still enjoy a regular treat and this helps to keep me sane.
The activity I choose can be anything from washing the car, mowing the lawn
or emptying rubbish bins, whichever is selected depends on the food I‘m
about to eat. If I’m about to have a light snack, maybe a yogurt and some
fruit, then I’ll slowly walk up and down the stairs 5 times, rest for 5
minutes then eat the snack. For a tuna salad sandwich, I may vacuum half the
house. If it’s a big meal, high in calories I will complete a
full body
workout an hour before sitting down to enjoy my occasional big meal with
low-calorie desserts to follow.
