My weight loss tips for losing fat and staying slim forever.

You need to understand the basic facts, you cannot eat junk food and become slim so you need to think about your food habits and commit yourself to changing your lifestyle to one of healthy eating.

You need to eat like a thin person and that means you must become a grazer, so you should eat 5 or 6 smaller meals throughout the day to keep your metabolism revved up.

Eat when you are hungry and stop when you are full, don't over eat as this will give you too many calories and make you gain weight. So the rule is simple think before you eat, ask yourself am i really hungry.

Are you hungry or are you thirsty. Your body sends you a signal to your brain telling you that you are hungry or thirsty. The problem is that the signals are almost identical. So the answer is if you feel hungry then drink a glass of water if you're still hungry 20 minutes later then you are truly hungry so eat.

Start eating Natural foods such as Lean meats, fish, wholegrains, pulses, fruits, nuts, seeds and plenty of vegetables. This will provide all the essential vitamins and minerals that the body will need while keeping your blood sugar stable and keep you feeling full.

Refined sugar is a massive problem in the western world and it is found in foods like sweets and cookies. When you eat refined sugar you raise your blood sugar dramatically and your body will release insulin to bring it back down to normal levels, however that means taking the sugar from your blood and storing it as fat.

Look out for the hidden sugars in products like bread and pasta. Anything that is made with white flour will spike your blood sugar just like sweets or cookies. Be carefully of disguised white flour in brown bread which is just white flour dyed brown to make it appear healthy. The best option is to read the labels and look for the words wholemeal or wholegrain.

Move it to lose it- you must start a regular exercise plan if you want to lose weight. Start slow and build up over time and find something that you enjoy doing. It will make it easier for you to continue into the future.

Start working out and gain some muscle, this with help you with your fat loss by increasing your metabolism and helping you burn extra calories whilst you are going about your day.

Be prepared for hunger by carrying healthy snacks such as a handful of nuts or some fruit with you so you wont get tempted with the junk food that surrounds you. Also write a food diary to keep track of what you are eating and only weigh yourself once a week. If you start weight training don't worry if you gain weight at first as muscle weighs more than fat.
