Expert Weight Loss Advice
Lets face it, losing weight is not easy. I am a person who has basically been overweight for most of my life. I have faced abuse and ridicule and have been desperate at times to find a solution to this weight problem. I am pleased to report that I have now managed to find a weight loss program that works for me, in this article I am going to explain how it works. I hope other people are also able to find an inner peace via losing weight in the same way that I have.
Like I am sure many of the people who read this article have done, I have tried many forms of weight loss programs with mixed success. We are all of course individuals and this was my excuse when I would realise that I had failed yet again to lose weight. How can so many other people have success when I am unable to? This is a question I would often ask myself.
Around two years ago I decided to admit a number of things to myself. Firstly, I eat to much. Secondly I do not do enough exercise. This in a nutshell was why I was obese.
The next question was how was I going to change this lifestyle as I really enjoyed eating and really hated any form of exercise. Some of my friends seemingly enjoyed going to the gym three times a week but this was just not me at all.
I am a very homely person who loves to stay in and watch the television. I eventually decided that I would start to exercise at home when watching the t.v. I bought myself an exercise bike and a rowing machine and duly began on my quest to lose weight. They both have on them a setting which shows how many calories you have burned off after each mini session. Just to lose two hundred is hard enough for someone like me.
This actually worked very well as I then started to read the labels of the food that I was about to eat. Three hundred calories for that little amount of food I would say to myself, just think of the amount of work I would have to do on the rowing machine to counter the affect of eating that, it is not really worth it.
I now exercise on most evenings and always watch what I eat. In the last two years I have lost a lot of weight using this strategy and am finally a weight that I am happy at.
