Jog if your desperate!

Tuesday, 15 December 2009

There is no easy or magic way to lose weight quickly in a healthy way. Get out there and move! Jog for short distances (don't stress your heart), and it's even more fun to go with a friend.

For one month keep a journal of every bit of food you put in your mouth. We are all bad for popping a quick candy, energy bar, into our mouths when we are busy. Best to stop, stretch and eat a healthy salad from a place like "Subway" than eat a bun, greasy hamburger, or anything sweet.

Most of us love sweets, so if you absolutely have to have something sweet here is a trick I learned. I'd buy a chocolate bar (preferably with squares) take two and suck on them in my mouth. I'd hide the rest of the chocolate bar. Now that I think of it I must have a dozen or so hidden in nooks and crannies around my house. Ewww!

There are so many good exercise machines out there and "bowflex" is one of them if you prefer to exercise at home. If you go on your local "shopping channel" you can pick these machines up for a song.
