1. Learn to read labels
Reading food labels is very important for weight loss. Without this skill, you are almost impossible to calculate count. You should know how to find the heat content of each food and that food portion size. Comparison of different food and drink labels to make healthy choices. This is necessary for weight loss.

2. SnackSmart

Eat some food every three hours can help you avoid eating too much, while maintaining normal blood sugar levels. Instead, it will play a negative role in the efforts made to be healthy if you eat something when you are very hungry. To be healthy and meet the needs of snack meanwhile, apple or lipid-lowering cheese is a good choice. Eating a lot seems to run counter to the purpose of losing weight, but actually SnackSmart can actually help you lose weight.

3. Eat more grains and other agricultural products
Grains, fruits and vegetables not only provide nutrition, but also promote health and reduce disease risk; at the same time, they can also be used for weight loss. They are low in calories, so you can eat and reduce the proportion of unhealthy foods in your diet. In addition, grains and other agricultural fibers can remain longer satiety, which helps you control food intake and avoid excessive amounts, so as to achieve weight loss results.

4. Eat enough, always eat enough.
What is one of the most terrible ways to lose weight? Do not eat meat! Many people think that not eating meat is a very good method of reducing calorie intake, but in the end, they failed to lose weight. If you are not a normal diet, you will be easier to eat too much. Moreover, if the food is not enough, your body may go into starvation, causing you to maintain the status rather than lose weight!

5. Drink plenty of water
Water helps you lose weight in the following cases: When you seem to have the problem of “edema”, drinking more water relieve puffiness. Using water instead of high calorie drinks, like soda, can reduce hundreds of calories intake. We should not wait until thirsty to drink water. Thirst can be mistaken for hunger, causing you to overeat. Amount of hydrate can help improve sense of health to maintain your weight loss motivation.

6. Regular exercise
It is not practical to lose weight without regular exercise. From now on, let’s start practice. Aerobic walking or cycling is good choices. According to your own needs, you should exercise10 minutes to 30 or 40 minutes a day. You can reap health benefits if you exorcize a few more days in a week, and weight loss is only a matter of time. In addition, exercise can promote the metabolism, making weight loss easier.

7. Control food intake
Measurement of food seems to be a chore, but it is very important to lose weight. Comparing the standard amount of weight loss with your own food intake is very helpful for losing weight. You’ll find your usual food intake is twice or three times the recommended amount. You will promptly pay attention to your food intake; it is a key skill to weight loss.

8. Write it Down
I think the first thing anyone who wants to lose weight will do is to write food log. What you need to do is to write it down in your notebook quickly, when, what to eat and how much to eat, or you can do online, such as CalorieCountPlus. From the Log, you can clearly see your current eating habits, so you can identify areas of improvement you need to lose weight.

If you do the above for one month, you can go to get an electronic fat scale. You may surprisingly find that you have lost several pounds. If you keep doing that for a longer time, you may reach your goal and regain self-confidence. Remember, whoever you are, you are the best forever.

Multiple studies have found that without major changes to diet, exercise typically results in only modest weight loss at best. Quite a few exercisers lose no weight. Some gain.But there is encouraging news about physical activity and weight loss in a new study by researchers at the University of Copenhagen. It found that exercise does seem to contribute to waist-tightening, provided that the amount of exercise is neither too little nor, more strikingly, too much.

GM DietTo reach that conclusion, the Danish scientists rounded up a group of pudgy and sedentary young men, a segment of the population increasingly common in Denmark, as elsewhere in the world.

Negative CalorieThe volunteers, most in their 20s or early 30s, visited the scientists’ lab to undergo baseline measurements of their aerobic fitness, body fat, metabolic rates and general health. None had diabetes, high blood pressure or heart disease and, while heavy, they were not obese.The men were then randomly assigned to exercise or not. The non-exercisers, who served as controls, returned to their former routines, with no change to their diets or sedentary ways.A second group began 13 weeks of almost daily moderate workouts, consisting of jogging, cycling or otherwise sweating for about 30 minutes, or until each man had burnt 300 calories, based on his individual metabolic rate.

Before there were packaged goods, processed foods, GMOs and an ongoing debate between organic or not, there was dirt, seeds, water and roaming animals. It may be hard to consider now, but the dawn of man produced hunters and gatherers and humans had to get their own food – not by heading to the supermarket.

There were no sprays to kill insects, no chemicals or genes added or modified. No extra-large tomatoes or vibrant yellow bananas. Food was simple. It was either found, picked or hunted. And although there weren’t doctors or research scientists to confirm the benefits of such eating, it seems that when it comes to dietary habits, eating like our ancestors has some merit.

Diets come and diets go, but one in particular seems to have staying power and for good reasons as well. It’s based on eating similar to that of prehistoric man and it’s being touted as one of the best way to eat. It’s called the Paleo diet.

What is the Paleo diet?
The Paleo diet was created by Loren Cordain, a now-famous author, speaker and professor of health and exercise science at Colorado State University, who specializes in disease and diet. The Paleo diet itself reflects food items and methods of eating similar to our Stone Age ancestors – that’s right, this diet is framed around eating like cavemen. Through scientific research and peer-reviewed studies, Cordain has uncovered many health benefits to eating the Stone Age way.

There are seven premise on which the Paleo diet guidelines are based:

High protein
Low carbohydrates and low glycemic index
High fiber
Moderate to high fat intake – monosaturated and polysaturated fats with omega-3s and 6s

High potassium, low sodium
Net dietary alkaline balances dietary acid – some foods produce acid (meat) and others are alkaline (fruits and vegetables). Eating a balance of both alkaline and acid foods can have positive health effects.

High intake of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and plant phytochemicals.
