How to Lose Weight Sensibly

dieting is not new to most people who are overweight.They have all tried this many times before.some are so incensed at what their Friends are saying about them that they will go without food entirely for a short time,only to return again to their former habits of overeating.Going to extremes rarely does any permanent good.The only solution is a completely new pattern of living,such as these simple steps outlines here:

Take smaller quantities of food.continue with balances diet,quantity,is the rule.Be sure to include reasonable amounts of potatoes and whole-grain cereals in your diet.Eating slowly will help.Avoid all foods that are oily or high in fat. Be careful about "left-overs".Many housewives put on weight because they hate to food wasted.Far better to prepare less food and avoid the problem of "left-overs"

Stop nibbling between the meals.Train yourself to get along on less food .Soon you will enjoy living on a reduced diet,and you will be surprised at how well you fell.

Sensible exercise,taken every day,will help to use those extra calories.The best exercise is walking ,Yoga asana,pranayam,mudras.In walking putting those large leg muscles to work will burn up unwanted calories.

Avoid rich desserts.All that excess sugar and fat is high in calories but low in food value.Your best "exercise"is to push yourself away from the table while you are still hungry!Stay clear of ice cream,pastry,rich cakes,and sweets.

Remember,regular eating is important.Your meals should be smaller than average,well-prepared,and attractively arranged on the table.There is no reason for you not to enjoy your meals,even though you are now taking less food than you once thought you need.

Do not go hungry for long.Eating regularly but sparingly is the best way to lose weight.

Be sure to have a good breakfast.this will carry you through the day,and you will be less tempted to nibble sweets and snacks between meals.


Use these foods freely-green leafy veg tables,tomatoes,and carrots.They are all low in calories,but high in vita mines and minerals and have real food value.Such things can also be used to wars off hunger pains between meals,if you must have something.

Dangers of overweight


Are you one of those who must always worry about your weight?Is it hard to maintain a normal figure?then this post is for you
Two thousand five hundred years age Hippocrates,"the father of medicine,"and a very keen observer,noted that "fat men die suddenly!" This is still true.Not in every case,of course,bu sudden death occurs so often in fat people that doctors must raise a note of warning.Especially is this true in people who are sluggish and steadily gaining weight.In other words,the longer your waist,the Short your life line! Yes,it is very important to watch your weight,not allowing yourself to become too thin or too fat,but trying to remain near the ideal.
Most youngsters in their teens,if they are healthy and active,are fairly close to the ideal weight for their size and age.Why do so many of them change as they grow older?Usually because they no longer are as active as they were.
Changes often come o in the late twenties,reducing a person's physical fitness.Sluggish habits begin to develop as the individual loses his skill in running,swimming,or other healthy activities.Yet in spite of warning from nature,they continue losing their athletic figure.What a pity to change that youthful silhouette for a flabby,paunchy,unattractive appearance!
"but"you say "aren't most plump people rather jolly and good-natures?"Yes,that is quite true.They are usually pleasant and easy to get along with,but they are still overweight.most of them give all manner of excuses for their fatness.But in almost every case the only reason is that they are eating more than they themselves really need.In other words,extra weight is due to extra eating.
it is surprising what just a few extra calorics a day more than more actually needed will do to a fine,youthful-looking appearance.For instance,if you take just one extra slice of bread a day above your actual needs and continue this for five years you will add 45 pounds to your figure!In ten years you will gained 90 pounds.But the trouble doesn't stop there,not by any means.
All this extra fat puts a strain on your heart,kidneys,and liver,and also on the large weight-bearing joints,such as the hips,knees,and ankles.This means your body is wearing out more rapidly,carrying around all this extra weight.Those excess calories in your diet can be deadly.You are shortening your life at your own dining table.
