The Best Way To Lose Weight

By Tammara Odessa


It is never easy for a person to shed weight. We have all heard the phrase - 'a minute on the lips, a lifetime on the hips'. There are many negative side effects of obesity which some are calling an epidemic, including heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and joint problems, to name a few. The general public have now become more aware of these risks and losing weight has pretty much become the number one priority of people when it comes to New Year resolutions.

What should someone do to lose weight properly? Is diet and exercise sufficient? Let's take a closer look at this.

The Diet Aspect

This is the first step that anyone trying to lose weight tries. There are a variety of different diet plans that are now available commercially these days. Atkins, the hCG diet, the list goes on and on. Diets basically all have the same goal, which is to shed excess weight by burning fat, and to maintain muscle at the same time. It is important to realize that not all dieting is good, and it is always advisable to seek medical advice. When nutrients are no longer absorbed by the body because the food that contained them has been cut out, it can have less than optimal effects and can be unhealthy. Seeing a dietician can be helpful to get the right advice on a diet that will help you lose weight.

There are healthier choices such as fish which contain healthy oils, having less red meat options, and getting more fruits and vegetables in the diet.

Exercise

A really good way to burn excess calories is to exercise regularly. There are effective ways to deplete glycogen and burn calories and subcutaneous fat using exercises that target your cardiovascular system. Studies have shown that cardiovascular disease and insulin resistance are highly associated with obesity that is in the abdominal region of people. To shed excess weight, it is well known that following a healthy diet and doing exercise frequently will allow you to burn more calories than you absorb daily.

Exercise requires commitment and focus. It makes sense to have a partner to exercise with, so that you can use each other as motivation to achieve goals. Increasing heart rate is important, so exercises like swimming, cross training, cycling, brisk walks, and jogging will help to strengthen your cardiovascular system.

Making it work

We all know that the best way to shed excess weight is through the proper use of exercise and sensible diet. Motivating oneself to get started can be hard, and these days programmes are available that seem to be reasonably successful for many individuals. Different gyms offer personal trainers that are trained in offering sound advice to help one achieve their goals of weight loss in a safe and effective manner. Other types of assistance is available from weight loss clubs that will actually deliver healthy meals right to people's homes, which helps them to have easy access to nutritious food. There is no excuse!

Synopsis

Weight loss is good as long as it is performed in a healthy way. Using time tested exercise and dietary routines can help tremendously. See a doctor or dietician today to get further advice on how you can achieve your weight loss goals.
