Lose weight the easy wayDon’t like hardcore diets and gym workout? Get fitter the easy way!It’s hard to change your eating habits in a day. There are people out there who have enough strong will to change their diets quicker than you can say ‘carbohydrate’ but most of us need to take small steps. “I love my chicken curry. I have Asian roots so many of my home dinners consist of rice” – says Kathryn who would like to lose 15 kilos. She spends 9 hours at work and has a small baby waiting for her at home. „When you have a daughter waiting for you, you want to get back home as soon as possible“. There are so many women like Kathryn. We would like to continue building our career, get Mother of the Year award and still be a hot wife. It‘s a hard job! But what is WeightWorld for? Our team comes to the rescue with some tips! 1. Start your morning with a glass of water with squeezed lemon. Instead of a cup of coffee have your detox drink: squeeze half a lemon to the glass of water. If you don’t have time to drink it at home, add it to your bottle of water and have it first thing in the morning. It will help to cleanse your body from toxins and „leftovers“and give you a nice start to the day. Grapefruit has similar nutritional properties so you can have half of it in the morning or squeeze it like a lemon and have it with water. 2. Don’t ever skip breakfast. Even if you don’t have time at home, eat it at work. I can’t stress it enough, how important it is to start your day with a meal that will give you energy for the whole day. Lost for ideas for your breakfast? Eggs (all variations), porridge, cottage cheese with an apple and cinnamon, wholegrain toast with chicken breast or ham and rocket are all recommended. 3. Change your carbs for wholegrain. Can’t imagine life without pasta? Yes, me too. You just need to remember the two rules: have it every second day, not every day, and always go for wholegrain products. Brown rice, pasta and bread have less sugar, more fibre so they will improve your digestion. And they taste really good! 4. Eat more vegetables! Not a big fan of broccoli? Add some balsamic sauce or sprinkle it with roasted seeds. Sky is the limit as long as you are using natural ingredients without extra sugar added. Vegetables are rich in vitamins and minerals which you need to keep your body in healthy balance. They contain fibre so may help you lose weight faster. 5. Try to eat regularly. The more often the better. Try to have small meals 5-6 times a day. Let’s say: morning – porridge, 2 hours later: portion of blueberries, Lunch: chicken breast with vegetables, 2 hours later: two slices of wholegrain bread with ham, tomato and rocket or spinach leaves, diner: fish with vegetables, 3 hours before you go to bed: two hard boiled eggs. 6. Treat yourself during weekends. Try to avoid all kinds of sweets during the week. No cakes, chocolate bars, fizzy drinks, juice. But on the weekends feel free to indulge. What is your favourite pudding? Cheesecake, brownie or maybe caramel ice cream? Have a portion on Saturday and Sunday. 7. Stay active without a gym If you have kids, you’re lucky, they will probably drag you to the park anyway. Your baby needs fresh air too, take it to the park. There are some special courses where you can teach babies how to swim – thanks to that you need to spend sometime in the swimming pool as well! You don’t have kids? Then you have even more options. Go for a slow jog with your best friend and chat while exercising instead of catching up with a cup of tea and shortbread. You can do that after one smooth session in the park. Have you tried cycling? Even my 65 years old parents do that every weekend and trust me they weren’t personal trainers when they were younger Or just grab a friend and go for a power walk together! 8. Take supplements Start your day with fish oils. Take zinc to decrease oestrogen level in your body. Add some fibre (you can buy a powder) to your food. Take CLA – that is a natural ingredient that will help you to burn fat faster when you chat in the park with your best friend. |
