A healthy weight loss diet plan should be first and foremost on our radar screen. We also understand that the modern world demands a successful career and a fast paced tech savvy social life. These demands also place such an unbalanced burden on people in the area of physical appearance.
The career, social and physical aspect can be so crushing that proper health practices suffer as a result. Not everyone can keep up with the blistering pace set by those at the very top. It can be quite brutal; more fall off the wagon than not. After a winter of hibernation, many are looking to shed those extra pounds. Some do, and some do not.
You should check your diet and rid it of the following:
1. chips and dips
2. soda and sweet juices
3. fast foods
4. these are deadly combos to your health.
These daily combos will set you up for long term health challenges. Your body tends to store these items as fat, especially if you are sedentary. The scales tip, and before long you are battling an obesity problem.
In any healthy weight loss diet plan exercise should be an extremely important segment. The balance of a sound diet and regular exercise safeguards your body for the future. Simple things like:
1. walking after meals
2. half hour exercise per day
3. gym workout for an hour
4. adopting a five day a week exercise program.
Just these simple exercise tips incorporated into your lifestyle will serve you well and go a long way to staving off obesity.
It is easy to talk about what you should not eat, but let us consider some of the foods we should keep around our homes. When starting a healthy weight loss diet plan it is important to keep healthy food items in our storage cabinets. When the good foods are not readily available we tend to snack on fast foods and unhealthy quick foods.
Keep these items in storage at home at all times:
1. Water! Keep your favorite water on hand at all times. Remember, do not just have it readily available, drink it! It is always best to drink water at room temperature. Cold water tends to slow and impede the digestive process.
2. Soy Milk. Good for cereals. If you cannot handle this, try the powder form. That works better for me. I mix a pitcher of the powder and it goes great with my cereals and oatmeal. Stay away from cows milk. It is for calves.
3. Have fruit handy. I am a banana person. They fill you quicker than a bag of chips will.
4. Carrots and Broccoli. Get a vegetarian recipe for dip.
5. How about peanut butter. Spread that on your toast instead of butter.
6. Do you like eggs? Have you ever heard of Egg Beaters? They are an excellent alternative to eggs.
7. Bread. I am talking about the wholesome wheat bread. Never allow white bread to cross your lips.
8. Cheese. Make your own vegetarian cheese; it is great, tastes better too!
9. Brown rice. Great for a quick meal. Never white rice.
10. I did mention cereals earlier. Read the labels, watch for the sugar content.
