Many people ask me what I actually did to to lose weight and what is the secret to maintaining a healthy body, even after 40 years. I find it difficult for most people to take the first step. It was like that for me too but deciding to start is what will make you get results faster. See below how to start a new stage of life slimming with health with some tips!
I want to lose weight, what is the first step?
The decision is the first step. You need to decide that you want to lose weight or be healthier and more energetic. One tip is to find a purpose: after all, why do you want to lose weight? To wear the clothes, you’ve always dreamed of? To have more health and disposition in your daily life? To invest now in a healthier future? To feel beautiful and sensual? To improve your self-esteem? To be a positive example to your children?
You have an inner strength that makes it possible to achieve everything in your life. Including losing weight with health. My tip is to find your reasons, to have such great purposes that it makes sense to throw yourself into this weight loss process. And then really make the decision to lose weight.
Proper nutrition is essential
When taking your first step, make the decision to lose weight, the next step is to review your nutrition. Be honest with yourself: what do you eat every day for every meal? Write down on a piece of paper what foods you eat for breakfast, snacks, lunch, and dinner, also considering drinks, whether or not you skip meals and what you eat on the weekends. Describe the amount of food at each step.
A proper diet that makes you lose weight is a diet based on balance. It’s important to eat all kinds of foods, making healthier choices like smaller portions, more protein, more organic and natural foods, and less processed foods. It’s a real food cleaning! And don’t forget about hydration: 2 liters of water daily is essential in this process.
Physical exercises constantly
Eating in line with some type of physical exercise that helps to reduce weight is what will make you lose weight. You can choose the exercise that works best for you. But it is important to understand that the practice must be constant, preferably daily. In the first month, you will already see great results.
Healthy mind healthy body
Eating and exercising will bring you many achievements on your journey to healthy weight loss. But the “mind” factor is also important. Don’t cover yourself too much. Don’t make your weight loss process forced and difficult. Think of it as something necessary, but it has many benefits for you. Stick to your purpose to lose weight.
Leave the excuses aside!
It is very common for people to make excuses to stay in the so-called comfort zone: “I want to lose weight, but I don’t have money”, “I don’t have time”, “I don’t have clothes to go to the gym”, “Monday I start”, “ I need to lose so much weight that I don’t even know if I’ll make it, so I better not start”.
All these are excuses you give to not lose weight and have a better life. Know that nothing is created within the comfort zone. If you want to have results in anything in life, you have to give up excuses.
Does it take a long time to lose weight?
It depends! It’s important to say that you won’t lose weight overnight, and that’s normal. But you may see small results every week, which will give a good result in the end. But the degree of commitment you have with your weight loss matters a lot and constancy matters. Do your best every day.
The last tip I can give in this article is mentoring. Soon, I will have open hours for specialized monitoring of people who want help on their journey towards weight loss. So, follow all posts on Nelma’s Blog to learn more!
