Many of us want to loose weight especially with the holidays coming up. Here is a common sense approach to weight loss.

Now I know the first thing most people tell you to do is cut out all junk food and fast food. I am here to tell you that you not only don’t have to but shouldn’t. Cutting out all of your favorite foods only makes you want them more. Here is the key: if you go to a burger place then only order the burger and skip the fries. In other words just eat a little less than you normally would when you go out.

I have heard that three meals a day is best. I prefer to eat several small meals. This gives you more energy and helps to boost your metabolism. It also keeps you from being tempted to snack on junk between meals. Another plus top this is that you don’t have that stuffed feeling after each time you eat. These meals can be just quick bites here and there if you are pressed for time.

Exercise is probably the one biggest factor. Now you don’t need special machines or to spend several hours a day in a gym. If you are like me you will pay for these things and never use them. A stair climber is nice if you can afford one. These work your legs and really get your heart pumping.

I did my exercises on my bed. These were simple leg lifts and sit-ups. Also front leg lifts are super for your lower abs. Also being on the bed is better for your back and just more comfortable. Exercise is great for your metabolism and helps tone your muscles. This can really take the inches off quick but you have to exercise some every day. Walking is also very good.

Setting realistic goals is very important. You shouldn’t expect to see results over night. It may takes weeks or months to really see a difference but you will. Having someone to help keep you motivated is a good idea as well. Or maybe even just a pair of jeans you want to fin into to remind you of why you should keep going. Really it is all a matter or raising your metabolism. You can walk or jog or join a gym. The point is to get active and be healthier.

I lost four jeans sizes by following these easy steps. I will give a warning though, if you stop using this method you will gain the weight back.
