Diet Tip for May 2010
Top 5 easy ways to lose weight quickly!
#1. Drink that Water!
The answer is NO…you don’t have to start living like a fish, but water is very important to our bodies. I mean we are made of about 70% water so it is important to drink at least 8-10 glasses of water per day. Drinking that water will help you lose weight by flushing out the wastes from your kidneys and also suppress most of your appetite! So drinking water will not only cleanse your system but you’ll also eat less by drinking water before and during your meal! Also one interesting fact about water is that, studies have shown that you can lose up to 62 calories just by drinking ice cold water…weirrdd.
#2. Use Smaller Plates…
Okay, I know your mother told you to finish everything that’s placed in front of you, but with the portions being ridiculous in modern restaurants nowaday
s, this is a bad idea. When the platter is big as your torso or you’re at a buffet? Well…you should use your common sense and take some to go! I know it can be hard to resist not eating all that mouth watering food in front of you.
That’s why we recommend having smaller plates, because smaller plates means smaller portions. Not only does a smaller plate make you grab less food, it will also make you walk back and forth when you want to get seconds. So while you’re doing the walking your stomach’s already doing the digesting (keep that in mind). Thus you’ll be less hungry and you’ll actually have some room for a small dessert. 
Also food for thought studies have shown that the color dark blue is the color that fights off appetite. So keep that in mind when you’re buying new plates.
#3. Exercise
Okay, lets get rid of this myth…NO, Exercising and "working out" does not have to be a painful experience. Exercising does not have to involve big weights and running on the treadmill all day like a hamster. When I mean exercise I mean take a nice relaxing 15-30min walk around your neighborhood or park. We all have bills to pay and its always good to take a breather once in awhile. So instead of sitting in front of that TV let’s go outside and enjoy the trees, birds, and the fresh air around us.
If you really can’t find the time to take a walk around your neighborhood or park here are some other suggestions…
Trade in your power mower for a push version.
Park your car at the back of the lot.
Sweep the drive instead of using a leaf-blower.
Get off the bus a few stops earlier.
Walk around the mall more then usual..but don’t go on a shopping spree.
Take the stairs every chance you get.
Play with your kids not just watch them. Be active and have fun with them!
#4. Try a diet product.
Diet products…most people think that this is just a shortcut. Well let’s think about this for a moment why is the diet market worth millions and millions? Because people buy these products! And why do they buy them? To lose weight and it works!
People have had so much negative views on diet products lately because everyone wants to lose weight the "natural" way. Well the fact is some people just do not have the time to hit the gym everyday. That was back in college when we had time! With diet products we can have the time to work, take care of our kids, and also lose weight at the same time.
I will admit though, some products do not work, they are a big fat waste of money, but most of the diet products actually do work. They have been through thousands of clinical trials and there are many testimonials to back them up. We here at Dietpillwhack recommend Phentramin-D & the Jillian Michaels online workout. They seem to be the most popular among people and people always e mail me on how they lost weight fast and easy with Phentramin-d paired with the Jillian Michaels workout.
#5. Don’t be so negative!
Last but not least, have a positive attitude. Many people say that one of the main reasons they loss weight quickly and effectively is because they had a goal and stuck with it. With a positive attitude and group of supportive friends you can do anything you want to do!
Don’t listen to the negative people around you that say that you can’t lose it or your own small voice claiming it’s impossible to lose all those pounds in those certain amount of days. As human beings its in our nature to make the impossible a possibility. So remember to keep your head high and push yourself to do your best, because we are all here to support you!
And I will end with a quote…
"Don’t give up when you still have something left to give,
Nothing is really over . . . till the moment you stop trying. "
