I wanted to share a simple and easier way to lose weight. (Don't get me wrong, I am not perfect and I sure have lost weight and gained it back but lets help each-other! Here are some ways I did lose weight pretty quickly)
Step one: Stop drinking soda. You may have a diet soda once a week if the “itch” is really killing you. There is also flavored water, not going to lie, it’s not great but it’s better than nothing. Drink lots of water! At least eight/ten 8oz a day.
Step two: Eat healthier. Make your own meals or if you don’t cook, you can still eat at restaurants, just be aware of what you put into your body. (Think of low carb/low sugar meals) for example: I love teriyaki food, so I will eat less than half of the rice, eat all of the chicken but have the sauce on the side, and very lightly dip into the teriyaki sauce or use hot sauce, that barely has anything in it! Another example. I love cheeseburgers, eat a lettuce burger with an extra patty, avoid fries, and drink lots of water to help with hunger. Another example: I love cookies and desserts in general, eat low fat yogurt and aim for less sugar, any beans, eat a banana with chocolate with sugar free.. stuff like that. I know you can do it! Eats fruits, but not a crap load because those do have natural sugars 😖 also, for breakfast lovers. Use no or low sugar for syrup when eating low fat or low carbs waffles or pancakes and eggs (any) with some cheese and sausages. One step at a time!!!
Step three: Exercise, I know this is the worst part! Isn’t eating healthier enough? Nope! Eating great is amazing but working out at least 3-4 days a week will help you boost your metabolism, lose weight, feel great, make yourself stronger, build muscles, your knees and back pain will decrease.. and much more! For example: I start on the elliptical for 10-15min warm up. Then I either work on lower body or upper body. Work on your shoulders, back, chest and sides. Most machines will show you what to do and if you are unsure ask one of the workers at the gym. Work on your thighs, legs, calves, gluteus, etc. those machines will also show you what to do. After I do leg day or upper body, I end with Cardio, 20-45mins depending. I feel more energized. Drink water or protein before / or after work outs...
Step four: Love yourself, you are beautiful/handsome. People will always talk shit, stare, laugh but F them. Be you and do not change. You working out and eating better will make you gain confidence too. If I can do it, you can... I believe in you! I am a big girl working on myself too.. you’re not alone!
Step five: Diet pills don’t work but protein does! Go to your local Nutrition store and they can help you find one that suits you.. if you need help with anything, please don’t hesitate to ask me also! I use Gold Standard, Double Rich Chocolate. It tastes like a Milk Shake! (I use a blender, put some ice, almond milk (usually any with less sugar), pour a scoop and a half of powder and even cool whip, a scoop of that!!) and Bam! You’re welcome ✌️😇
