If you want to lose weight, you have to develop the habit of taking rapid and decisive action. The quicker you get the ball rolling, the quicker you will achieve success.
Thus, here is a plan for getting in shape you can begin right now:
1. Log your caloric intake: You don’t have to do this forever, but having an idea of how many calories you are eating is the best way to assess caloric intakes. And you need a baseline from which you can adjust and manipulate.
2. Beef up breakfast: A small piece of toast and a huge coffee don’t count as breakfast. Breakfast should be the biggest meal of the day for you. If it’s not, you will hinder the efficient absorption of every single other meal in your day.
3. Get rid of liquid calories cold turkey: Not only do liquid calories increase levels of cholesterol and other inflammatory substances, but they also ruin fat loss efforts. Recall that liquid calories are insulin’s best friend.
4. Optimize circadian rhythms: This is a very powerful technique for increasing energy while simultaneously maximizing the output of fat burning hormones. Interestingly, even individual organs follow their own rhythms. One way to begin optimization is by eating at regular times every day.
5. Block out all fast food: I don’t have enough space in this article to describe all the evils of fast food. But suffice to say that eating fast food is the fastest way to gain weight. And don’t be deceived by their “healthy” menus.
6. Bring your lunch box to work: Do not rely on your employer to provide healthy, fat burning food. It’s imperative that you take control of your environment. And it’s much easier to change your environment than to rely on self discipline.
7. Go overboard with vegetables: I’ve never heard of someone getting sick from eating too many vegetables. In fact, increasing your vegetable intake to insane levels will increase energy and rates of weight loss more so than anything else.
